Whoosh!
Phoenix Emperor unfurled the scroll.
The instant the scroll opened, the entire human world trembled faintly.
Even ordinary people sensed that tremor.
So long as they were human, whether they were in the Abyss, among the stars, or cultivating in seclusion beneath the earth—
So long as even a trace of human blood remained in them, they received a message:
Humanity's mortal enemy, the Forbidden Zone, had surfaced in this world once more.
Everyone, take up your weapons, prepare your arms, ready your coffins, and prepare for a fight to the death!
The message came swiftly and vanished swiftly.
In less than one ten-thousandth of an instant, everyone learned one thing:
Beyond the Old Gods, the Abyss, and other enemies, humanity had gained another foe—the Forbidden Zone.
At this moment, someone stared fixedly at Phoenix Emperor and cried out, "What did you do?"
Phoenix Emperor said calmly, "I merely made you accompany me to the grave."
Everyone...
The next moment, streams of black smoke shot into the sky from the scroll.
The black smoke surged skyward, then split apart in an instant, transforming into streaks of Black Light.
The streaks of Black Light exploded, and one Forbidden Zone Master after another appeared.
When they saw the Forbidden Zone Masters, the marshals in the core fortresses breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought they had some great ability."
"Turns out, this is all?"
Forbidden Zone Masters were terrifying.
But to people of this era, they were troublesome, yet insignificant.
A single main cannon blast from a core fortress could wipe out a whole mass of them, so they did not care.
However, too many Black Lights appeared.
Forbidden Zone Masters emerged in dense swarms, stretching beyond the eye could see.
One thick beam of light appeared and exploded in midair.
