Misty Cloud Sect, Council Hall.
Yun Shan, dressed in a white robe, sat upright in the seat of honor at the head of the hall.
Below him sat more than a dozen figures. All of them wore white robes, and the distinctive emblems on their chests made it clear that their status within the Misty Cloud Sect was far from low.
"Old Sect Master, the hostile forces from other empires that infiltrated the Jia Ma Empire have basically all been eliminated by the disciples we sent out!"
Great Elder Yun Leng rose to report to Yun Shan.
"Mm!"
Hearing Yun Leng's report, Yun Shan nodded with a smile.
The Misty Cloud Sect had always been exclusionary and would not allow sect forces from other empires to gain a foothold within the Jia Ma Empire.
Previously, when the allied armies of those empires entered the Jia Ma Empire, many foreign forces had infiltrated the region. After more than a month of effort, the Misty Cloud Sect had finally cleared out most of them.
However, just as Yun Shan was about to speak again, his brows suddenly furrowed tightly. He immediately shot toward the outside of the hall.
Above the enormous plaza before the hall, the space in the sky suddenly twisted violently. Soon after, a space crack a hundred zhang wide abruptly formed.
Immediately afterward, an immense golden creature poked its head out from the crack, and a vast, overwhelming aura spread through the air.
"This is..."
"What a terrifying magical beast!"
Looking at the terrifying phenomenon in the sky and the somewhat familiar enormous golden eagle, many Misty Cloud Sect disciples who had participated in the great battle at the Monster Beast Mountain Range had their pupils suddenly constrict as fear rose in their hearts.
The others were somewhat bewildered.
