All Four Sides Move

Xu Yanwu single-handedly stopped the entire beast tide on the beach, but he didn't notice that in the void, a pair of eyes were watching him.

[So you chose to help humanity resist the cleansing...]

[God from another world... Since you are still so stubborn...]

With this whisper, Chi You, deep in the ocean, felt the Honkai Energy around him rapidly filling its body, as if Chi You's body had become a bottomless pit.

Roar...

Chi You let out an excited roar. It could feel its body growing stronger after a long time, and its kin were also growing stronger due to this gathering of Honkai Energy.

Thus, Chi You quickly stopped its advance and began to fully digest the Honkai Energy it had absorbed this time.

After several cycles of sun and moon, Chi You's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, emitting a purple glow, like two beacons in the dark depths of the ocean.

And... it seemed like something new had appeared in these eyes.

Roar... Aow...

Chi You continuously let out soft growls, as if it were adapting to something.

Something horrifying happened.

After several low growls, Chi You lowered its head on the seabed and spoke human words.

"Thank you... my god..."

A terrifying Honkai Beast, possessing not only the extreme physical power of a Honkai Beast but also intelligence... was born.

[Defeat... the god from another world!]

"Yes... my god... I will carry out your will..."

Only then did Chi You raise its massive beast head and issue its first command after gaining the ability to speak human language.

"All my emissaries... our target... the god from another world... Kill!"

〖Ahem, author's note: I originally wanted to be cheeky here and say: [My children! Let's go find some punk who dares to bully our god and pick a fight!]... but I held back in the end...〗

——Inside Chi You——

"..."

Watching the Militants and Honkai Beasts around it, whose auras were becoming terrifying one by one, Annihilation Spirit squatted in a corner, too scared to fly. It just squatted on the ground, hugging its knees and trembling.

"So scared..."

The voice that came from Annihilation Spirit was crisp, filled with fear and a sense of grievance.

Alright, let's introduce her for now.

In this Civilization Era, the first Militant capable of speaking human language... was born!

Although introducing her in such a high-profile manner might lower the evaluation of Chi You...

But this is truly the only Militant that has appeared so far who can speak human language, and she's just this cowardly...

"Thump... thump..."

Xu Yanwu touched his thumping heart, a sense of dread filling him.

"Why do I feel like something is about to happen... Is it just my imagination... but it feels really bad..."

Crushing the head of a giant shark-like Honkai Beast under his foot, Xu Yanwu looked out at the sea with a grim expression.

The beast tide had actually lasted for such a long time...

"Damn it... I might have been too overconfident..."

Xu Yanwu had been guarding the beach for longer than he should have, seven days.

————Xuanyuan Tribe————

Ji Lin sat at a large table with dozens of people of various appearances, with Danzhu and Cang Xuan standing behind her. Below the stage, a surging crowd of people from various tribes stood, chattering amongst themselves, with Lianshan and Chi Yuan maintaining order.

These individuals sitting with Ji Lin, both men and women, were the chieftains of various tribes across the Land of Shenzhou. They had all been urgently summoned by Ji Lin in the past few days.

It had to be said that although they were unclear about what had specifically happened, based on the renowned reputation of the Xuanyuan Tribe, they had followed the Xuanyuan Tribe's instructions and brought a considerable fighting force from their respective tribes.

"Ji Xuanyuan, what exactly did you call us all here for? I don't have time to mess around with you kids!"

From below the stage, a burly, large man shouted with dissatisfaction: "I brought half my tribe's warriors here just because of your word. If it's not something important, don't blame me for getting angry."

After the burly man spoke, others chimed in agreement.

Ji Lin glanced at the first man who spoke and said, "Chieftain Pi, Ji Xuanyuan has indeed summoned all the tribes here because there is something important to discuss."

"That's good then! What is it, tell us."

Chieftain Pi asked Ji Lin frankly about the reason for the gathering, causing the people who had just agreed with him to feel a bit awkward.

"Mhm..."

Ji Lin turned her head to look at Cang Xuan beside her, nodded, and signaled her to bring out the item.

With a nod from Ji Lin, Cang Xuan took out a small cube from her person and placed it in the center of the table. With a gentle tap, a 3D model of the Land of Shenzhou, projected from the cube, materialized in the air.

This display surprised many of the tribal chieftains. Of course, someone as thick-skinned as Chieftain Pi wasn't surprised at all...

"I believe all of you have been warriors fighting alongside the 〖Exotic Beasts〗 for a long time. The reason for today's gathering is none other than the matter of these Exotic Beasts!"

Ji Lin's words immediately caused a stir among the crowd below.

As the elites of their respective tribes, how could they not have fought against creatures like Honkai Beasts?

Those monstrous beings had once been the nightmare of every tribe; they had no means to fight against those monsters.

Until these past few years...

A man would always appear when the Honkai Beasts attacked the tribes. After teaching them methods to grow stronger and resist the Honkai Beasts, he would leave behind a name and depart.

It was Ying Long from the Xuanyuan Tribe...

This was also one of the reasons these tribes so readily brought their troops.

There were also rumors that two people had helped them, as some had vaguely seen a weary figure with a large backpack and a green weapon following Lord Ying Long... But none of that was important.

What was important was what exactly was related to the 〖Exotic Beasts〗.

"Our Xuanyuan Tribe has discovered a situation: a large number of Exotic Beasts from the ocean are invading the land. Their numbers are far greater than any previous beast tide!"

"?!?!?!"

The chieftains present, despite any animosity or hatred they might have held for each other, were not fools. They understood the severity of the situation described in this news.

"Impossible!"

One chieftain shouted, "Our tribe is by the sea, but we haven't discovered any Exotic Beast invasion!"

Ji Lin took a deep breath and used her finger to drag and zoom in on the projection, displaying the area of the beach that Xu Yanwu was guarding.
