The dark wasteland lay beneath a gloomy sky, oppressively bleak. Piercing roars occasionally echoed from afar. The place was utterly lifeless, filled with a desire for slaughter.
Whoosh!
Countless rifts suddenly tore open above the silent wasteland. A barefoot woman in white stepped out of one and entered the wasteland. Behind her, a vast swath of rainbow light shot forth before slowly descending to the ground.
"This is the outer region of the Otherworldly Demon Region."
Amid the crowd, an exceptionally tall figure surveyed the surroundings and roughly determined their location.
While the others curiously examined the wasteland, Cao Xuan remained remarkably composed. Everything she did was orderly, as though she knew the place well.
Among Qianhai Sect's three hundred disciples, only Cao Xuan had participated in the previous Sect Tournament. Her understanding of the Otherworldly Demon Region far surpassed that of the other disciples.
Mu Zi descended, her feet touching the ground. At once, an extremely faint tremor traveled up from beneath her feet.
She turned her head slightly and gazed into the distance, her eyes seeming to pierce through space itself. There, a vast mass of dark shadows could vaguely be seen surging toward them like a tide.
A moment later, the others also noticed something was amiss.
"A large number of demon creatures have appeared to the northwest. Qianhai Sect disciples, prepare for battle!"
Cao Xuan shouted as she began issuing commands.
As Qianhai Sect's Senior Sister, Cao Xuan possessed ample prestige. Having participated in a Sect Tournament before, she had experience dealing with all kinds of situations, so she naturally took command.
Rumble!
Explosive booms rang out in the distance as a vast mass of black shadows appeared on the horizon and entered everyone's sight. The black tide churned and swept toward them like dark clouds.
