Shattered Sky

The Bamboo Dragonfly King had personally come to the sacred land. Naturally, the Bamboo Dragonfly guards stationed around it did not dare bar his way.

After traveling deep into the Mountainous Green Peaks, the Bamboo Dragonfly King entered a cavernous stone hall where clear spring water flowed in gentle streams.

It was an exquisitely decorated stone hall, situated deep within the heart of the mountains.

This cave did not seem to have been carved out of the mountain. It appeared to have formed naturally.

Countless energy crystals, along with colorful flowers radiating dense vitality, filled many corners of the stone hall.

If mages from the Wizard World arrived here, they would certainly determine that several sizable Energy Crystal veins lay beneath this place, nurturing an incomparably abundant variety of plant resources.

As the sacred land of the Bamboo Dragonfly Clan, this was where the ancestors' remains rested, and also a holy place where later generations listened to their ancestors' teachings.

The current Bamboo Dragonfly King had come here when he inherited the throne.

Nearly ten sets of Bamboo Dragonfly King remains were placed within this spacious, majestic stone hall.

Yet the two remains most revered and worshipped by the current Bamboo Dragonfly King were undoubtedly the fossilized bodies whose surfaces had taken on a dark metallic hue.

These two bodies belonged to the Bamboo Dragonfly Clan's two deceased Demigod-level experts.

Though both had failed on the path to advancing to Rank Four and had ultimately died of old age,

there was no doubt that they had been pioneers of the Bamboo Dragonfly Clan.

Only through the unceasing efforts of those who came before could those who followed hope to reach greater heights.

Unfortunately, the current Rank Three Bamboo Dragonfly King was still far from surpassing his predecessors.

Instead, he needed to borrow the strength of those ancestral sages to withstand this unknown crisis.

By the time the Bamboo Dragonfly King arrived, Lan Xi, one of the Demigod-level Bamboo Dragonflies and masters of this stone hall, was already waiting for him.

Ever since that Green Sun had appeared beyond the plane, every creature above Rank One in the Green Leaf World should have noticed it.

Lan Xi, who had only advanced to Demigod-level a few hundred years ago, was no exception.

Moreover, having reached the Demigod realm where he could touch the power of laws, Lan Xi could sense the other's strength more keenly than ordinary Green Leaf World creatures.

However, while the Bamboo Dragonfly King could show his panic and fear, Demigod-level Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly Lan Xi could not. The Bamboo Dragonfly King might not know what to do, but at least he could rely on Lan Xi.

Who could Lan Xi rely on? Lu Mo, who was older than him but likewise had little lifespan remaining?

As the dominant race of the Green Leaf World, the Bamboo Dragonfly Clan had only two living Demigod-level Creatures.

Their two-thousand-year limit on lifespan had slowly worn down and killed the previous two generations of Bamboo Dragonflies who had broken through to the Demigod realm.

Luluenman's attack on the Green Leaf World, led by the Azure Source Holy Tower, had still been somewhat hasty.

Had she delayed for a few more decades, perhaps the Green Leaf World's Demigod-level Bamboo Dragonflies would have been reduced to just one.

(P.S.: Demigods in the Wizard World could live for around ten thousand years, while Demigods in the Green Leaf World could only live for two thousand. This demonstrated the difference in foundation and biological evolution between the two worlds. The Wizard World had developed to the point of possessing an evolution system nearing perfection, while the Green Leaf World had only just begun. The two could naturally not be mentioned in the same breath.)

"What did the Guardian summon you for earlier?" Demigod-level Bamboo Dragonfly Lan Xi asked, keeping his composure.

Not only was he a Demigod of the Bamboo Dragonfly Clan, he was also the grandfather of the Bamboo Dragonfly King before him.

Calling this fellow the Grand Emperor of the Bamboo Dragonfly Clan would not be an exaggeration.

Mobilizing the strength of the entire world against the unknown would inevitably require his power.

The Bamboo Dragonfly King swiftly told his grandfather everything. Then, immediately afterward, he took out a piece of Green Amber from his robes.

The appearance of this Green Amber caused a glint to flash through Demigod-level Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly Lan Xi's black eyes.

"This is..." Lan Xi said.

"This is a drop of Tree Heart Essence the Guardian gave me. It warned us to gather all our strength and remain ready to face an unknown crisis at any time," the Bamboo Dragonfly King said in a low voice.

Demigod-level Bamboo Dragonfly Lan Xi accepted the Tree Heart Essence. He did not absorb it immediately; clearly, now was not the time.

Lan Xi said gravely, "Immediately issue the Royal Clan Summoning Order. Notify all Bamboo Leaf Dragonfly warriors and every force we can mobilize to gather at the royal city."

"All warriors who have reached Emerald-level, meaning Rank One, and above, prepare to march with me!"

"Since the Guardian has already foreseen a crisis descending, we cannot let the unknown have its way!" Lan Xi commanded.

The Bamboo Dragonfly King quickly departed with his grandfather's orders. As the current ruler of the Bamboo Dragonfly Clan, mobilizing the power of the entire Bamboo Dragonfly Clan and its Affiliated Races was quite convenient for him.

After watching his grandson leave, Demigod-level Bamboo Dragonfly Lan Xi also began making preparations.

He looked toward a certain direction in the deepest part of the stone hall. After pondering for a long while, he ultimately chose not to disturb the other party.

Though the other Demigod-level Bamboo Dragonfly, Lu Mo, was still alive, her lifespan was clearly nearly exhausted.

They did not even know what the crisis was yet, so Lan Xi was in no hurry to disturb her.

By seniority, Lu Mo was even his grandmother, though not from his direct line.

Beyond the plane, Luluenman's energy-gathering magic was nearing its end.

The originally ever-spinning green vortex had become even more azure-green, its color much deeper than before.

Yet what truly drew people's eyes was not the vortex itself, but an Elemental Spike that had been completely exposed from within it.

With a forward point from Luluenman, the fully formed Elemental Spike crushed toward the Green Leaf World's Plane Barrier!

"Boom!"

It was an indescribable yet mind-piercing roar.

The tremendous blast not only stunned the Azure Source Holy Tower Legion, poised for battle on the Demiplane outside the Green Leaf World, but also made the native creatures across the entire Green Leaf World shudder.

Who knew how many weak Green Leaf World creatures with exceedingly poor endurance died beneath that enormous sound sweeping across the entire plane.

Yet the diamond-shaped Elemental Spike, the instigator behind the roar, did not cease its spinning, crushing advance.

Following the roar came more "Creak!" "Creak!" sounds of grinding and shattering.

The sound resembled glass breaking.

But in truth, it was the Green Leaf World's Plane Barrier gradually cracking beneath the pressure of Luluenman's Element Power.

Fine yet distinct scratches gradually appeared across the originally flat, solid surface of the Green Leaf World's Plane Barrier.

The spell Luluenman had spent considerable time chanting was clearly no ordinary thing.

If it could be used to shatter the Plane Barrier of an entire world, then at the very least, its destructive power could not be lacking.

The sky had shattered!

This was the shared, trembling thought in the hearts of every Green Leaf World native creature that noticed the cracks appearing in the sky.
