"Requesting aid! Requesting aid!"

What about the Nameless Mountain?

Chen Fan looked in the direction of the Nameless Mountain. The Nameless Mountain was not a mountain range, but a solitary mountain standing in the Jiangbei Wasteland. It was not even very tall, only a few hundred meters high.

"That's not it." The man shook his head. "Nameless Mountain is really just a simple mountain."

"The Formation Vein Patterns must indicate a mountain range, not just a single, isolated mountain."

"The Eternal Night Continent is vast."

"I don't know the exact size, because I haven't traversed the entire Eternal Night Continent. I'm only responsible for communications and some miscellaneous tasks in the Western Region One."

The man pulled a Ghosthide Map from his pocket and spread it on the table. "This area you are in, along with the Four Regions of Jiangbei and the two regions Kansai Wall, is collectively known as 'Western Wasteland Island'."

"This is the 'Yellow Springs Pass Canyon.' Do you see these continuous mountain ranges on both sides of the Yellow Springs Pass Canyon? These mountain ranges are the Formation Patterns that have emerged, and the Canyon in the middle is the gap caused by the shattered node. The Eternal Night Hall has set up a defensive line here."

"Original"

The man hesitated slightly. "The original purpose of this Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line was to prevent the Undersea Strange Tide from entering the Eternal Night Hinterlands through the Yellow Springs Pass Canyon after abandoning Western Wasteland Island."

"About 2,700 kilometers from the Yellow Springs Mouth lies the closest Eternal Night Front, named the 'Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One.'"

This defensive line is 108 kilometers long.

"This is also one of the defensive lines attacked by the Main Force the Strange Tide."

While he knew that the Eternal Night Hall's decision was unavoidable, he still found it difficult to speak out about the Eternal Night Hall plan to abandon the Western Wasteland Island. Chen Fan looked at the Ghosthide Map the man had pulled out. This Map was larger than any other Map in the Mortal Domain, but he roughly compared it with the overview Map on his own Sky-Piercing Pillar "launch panel".

They quickly located the position of "Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One".

Coast.

It is within the bombardment range of Max-Level Sky-Piercing Pillar, but exceeds the range of Level-6 Sky-Piercing Pillar.

"But"

He looked at the mountain ranges on the man's Ghosthide Map, his brows furrowing slightly. "You said these continuous mountain ranges are mostly manifested by Formation Patterns, but why do I see them not only in Coast but also in the hinterland on your Map?"

"Yes."

The shirtless man sighed, "The most perfect state of the Grand Array is that not only is there a continuous mountain range Coastal Area, but all other regions are also isolated by this mountain range. This way, even if one region falls, it won't threaten the others."

But now...

"The 'Formation Patterns' in many areas have also cracked."

"This means that if the 'Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One' falls, in order to stop the Strange Tide that will land from the Seabed, a defensive line totaling 237 kilometers in length must be laid at the three fragmented nodes in the rear area."

The reason why the Eternal Night Hall abandoned "Western Wasteland Island" is...

"One of the biggest reasons is..."

"Between the 'Eternal Night Western Black Tortoise Frontline One' and the Western Wasteland Island lies an area called the 'Western Plains,' which has been completely overrun by Strange Entities. To transport supplies, a long detour is necessary."

"Take a detour through the Autumnbright Basin."

"But the Autumnbright Basin is Coastal Area. Every time we prepare to transport large quantities of supplies, the Mole always leak the information to the Strange Entity Clan. Then the Strange Tide outside the Autumnbright Basin will spare no effort to break through the defenses and intercept these resources."

Therefore one

"Western Wasteland Island... is actually somewhat isolated and helpless; it's very difficult for the Eternal Night Hall to transport resources to Western Wasteland Island."

Chen Fan stared at the Map and vaguely understood. The straight-line distance from "Frontline One" to "Western Wasteland Island" was definitely the shortest in the Western Plains, which also had the largest area. Since the Western Plains had already fallen, the only option was to go through the Autumnbright Basin.

However, the Autumnbright Basin is not safe either.

The only option would be to take a detour deep into the interior, but that would be far too far, effectively increasing the distance four or five times.

What are the methods of transporting supplies to the Eternal Night Hall?

"Skeleton Horses, Flying Boats, etc., but Flying Boats are difficult to build and have high flight costs, making them unsuitable for large-scale transportation; they're fine for small-scale transportation though."

Large-scale transportation is basically all done by Skeleton Horse).

"Isn't there Teleportation Formation array or something?"

The man was somewhat bewildered.

"It's the kind of Teleportation Formation that can instantly transport you from the First Defense Line to Western Wasteland Island."

"Does it exist in the Mortal Domain?"

"No, I just feel that the Eternal Night Hall is so powerful, it might have such methods."

"If such methods existed, the Eternal Night Continent would have already launched a counterattack." The man looked at Chen Fan with a strange expression. He really dared to dream, a Teleportation Formation, perhaps with a one-click explosion to wipe out the Strange Entity Clan.

"Call"

Chen Fan frowned in thought. This matter was becoming more difficult. To establish a transportation hub with the First Frontline One, they couldn't go to the Western Plains, as that area was already occupied by the Strange Entities.

The Autumnbright Basin doesn't seem very safe either.

Sea freight

Well, what a terrible idea that is.

"By the way"

He suddenly thought of something.

"You just said that when the Strange Entity Clan learns that a large amount of supplies are passing through the Autumnbright Basin, they will do everything in their power to break through the Autumn Bright Basin Defense Line. Autumn Bright Basin Defense Line so easy to breach?"

"They've broken through so many times, yet the Autumnbright Basin hasn't fallen?"

"Um."

The man nodded. "The 'Formation Patterns' in the heart of the Autumnbright Basin are all intact, so even if the Strange Entities occupy the Autumnbright Basin, it won't have much strategic significance, and they won't be able to spread outwards."

"We can only stay in the Autumnbright Basin."

"Therefore, the Strange Tides there, under the command of the Strange Entity Clan, will not expend too much power to break through the defenses. However, if they know that a large amount of resources are being transported across the border, that would be a different story."

"What about the 'Western Plains'?" Chen Fan asked again. "The Map shows that the Western Plains are located in the heart of the Eternal Night Continent, with no sea on any side. If it's occupied by the Strange Entities, how will they replenish their reinforcements?"

"Good question."

The man said somewhat quietly, "The Strange Entities can dig underground. The reason you haven't seen any Strange Entities digging in Jiangbei is because Jiangbei hasn't completely fallen yet. In completely fallen areas, Strange Entities can dig tunnels underground to bypass the City Walls."

"The Western Plains are located in the heart of the Eternal Night Continent, but a constant stream of Strange Entities emerge from the sea, traveling upstream along underground rivers to crawl out of the Western Plains."

"There is a fractured node in the Western Plains, where there is also a defensive line called the 'Western Plains Defense Line,' which is responsible for guarding the Western Plains, defending it internally, and preventing these Western Plains Strange Tides from escaping and spreading to other areas."

"Understood."

Chen Fan nodded, leaned back in his chair, and gently rubbed his temples, falling into deep thought without saying a word.

This conversation.

This gave him a preliminary understanding of the overall situation of the Eternal Night Continent.

Simply put

The Eternal Night Continent was like a tattered piece of clothing, and their defensive lines were there to check for leaks and patch up the gaps. The continent was in a state of disrepair.

They mended and patched it.

That's the situation.

In this situation, the importance of the "supply transport line" is self-evident. When there are too many Eerie Stones on a defensive line, the excess Eerie Stones should be transported to other defensive lines in a timely manner. Only under such overall planning can each defensive line have a chance to defend its own area.

But how to transport the General Strange stones and resources to other Frontline is a big problem.

There must be more than one such inland area like the "Western Plains" that has fallen to the enemy. Each additional area that falls to the enemy doubles the difficulty of transporting supplies.

All the Strange Entity Clan needs to do is wait patiently.

Once the Eternal Night Hall falls into chaos and the manipulation of the Eerie Stones malfunctions, and three or four areas are captured, the fall will snowball, and the entire area could be lost within a few months.

And when a certain area falls...

To reclaim this area, the Eternal Night Hall's trump card is...

Chen Fan looked at the Fat Man sitting next to the man, who was wearing a black cloak and whose physique was far beyond that of an ordinary person, and said softly, "Night Watcher?" The Fat Man nodded and squeezed out a response from his throat, which sounded extremely harsh, like scratching glass with a finger.

I cannot see their faces.

"I belong to the Field Operations Group," the shirtless man explained in a deep voice.

"One of the main responsibilities of the Eternal Night Hall's Field Operations Group is to extinguish any sparks that could ignite a raging inferno; therefore, we must be accompanied by a Night Watcher of level 20 or higher when we go out."

"Level 20 Night Watcher"

"The power generated by the self-destruction is enough to instantly wipe out all the Strange Entities within a 20-kilometer radius."

Chen Fan played with the Glazed Figurine in his hand. Its power was much greater than that of Level-6 Sky-Piercing Pillar. He even suspected that it might be more powerful than Max-Level Sky-Piercing Pillar.

The Northbank Defense Line stretches for 170 kilometers.

Theoretically speaking.

If nine level 20 Night Watchers are stationed along the Northbank Defense Line and all self- Northbank Defense Line simultaneously, they can instantly clear out all the Strange Entities in that area. Of course, this only clears out one wave; the subsequent Strange Tide of monsters are unstoppable.

But

This is already exaggerated enough.

In the Eternal Night Continent, one person's ability is extremely small. Let alone nine, even ninety thousand Martial Kings could not hold the Northbank Defense Line; they couldn't hold it for even a moment.

The fact that the Night Watcher could do this already far surpasses that of ordinary Cultivator.

"Moreover, the Night Watcher's self-destruction will not destroy the defenses or affect humans." The scarred, shirtless man stated expressionlessly about something that seemed completely unrelated to him.

"The orders are from above."

"If Jiangbei truly manages to establish a defensive line and barely holds Jiangbei, when things become unsustainable, I will activate the Night Watchers around me to help Jiangbei weather this Rainy Season. Then, the Eternal Night Hall will find a way to send resources to maintain this defensive line."

The Fat Man sitting to the side, draped in a huge black robe, showed no extra physical reaction. This somewhat personified statement did not stir any emotion in the other party.

Perhaps it sensed Chen Fan's emotions.

The Fat Man, each word uttered in a somewhat hoarse voice.

"The Night Watcher's destiny is... to activate."

"That's normal."

The sound was shrill, somewhat like the sound of someone's throat being cut open, with a strong whooshing sound, and it was spoken extremely slowly.

Chen Fan was slightly taken aback. He had heard someone say this before; Big Fish had also said it to him.

After a long silence.

He stood up and looked at the shirtless man. "You must be tired from your journey. Let me arrange for you two to find a place to rest. We can discuss the details tomorrow."

"Good."

"By the way"

He glanced at the man's bare chest and hesitated before asking, "Aren't you cold? And what are these scars...?" The man immediately laughed.

"I am a special Cultivator, 'Firewalker Sun,' whose internal organs constantly spew Flames. I am not afraid of cold or heat, and as for these scars..." He had barely finished speaking when...

Suddenly, a ball of fire burned through the man's belly from the inside and emerged from his abdomen. The man Proficiency slapped out the flame that had sprung from his body and then took out a Pills to plug the wound.

"See, that's how it is. Flames will occasionally burst out, leaving some scratches."

"It's nothing serious."

Does it hurt?

"A little, but you'll get used to it."

The man smiled and looked towards the Nameless Mountain: "That One was once a member of the Eternal Night Hall's 'Field Operations Group.' Members of the Field Operations Group generally work alone, and aside from handling some trivial matters..."

"Most importantly, each member of the Field Operations Group must possess the strength to hold off an entire wave of Strange Tides."

Even if it's just for a fleeting moment.

Such people are extremely rare in the Eternal Night Hall.

"Certainly."

"It won't be activated casually; once activated, its life is basically over."

Wang Kui took the two to Mortal City and temporarily settled them in an Inn Mortal City.

Chen Fan sat alone at the table, gazing at the "Ghosthide Map" left behind by the man before he left, lost in thought.

If we want to establish a connection between the "Western Frontline One" and the "Mortal Domain".

We definitely can't go to the Western Plains.

We must take the Coast route.

First, from the West Pass Plains, enter the "Yellow Springs Mountain Range Region," which is the area behind the Yellow Springs Pass Canyon. This is also a Coastal Area, and the Coast nodes have been broken. There is a "Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line" there.

Let's go deeper into the area.

Entering the "Autumnbright Basin" region.

Finally, they will arrive at the "Western Frontline One" from the Autumnbright Basin region.

This is practically the only path left.

He remained silent for a long time, deep in thought, pondering how to lay a sufficiently safe route using the resources of the Mortal Domain.

Soon, dawn broke.

As the thick darkness receded, the sky began to Fish-Belly White the patter of rain.

The calls for numbers rang out continuously along the Northbank Defense Line.

Under command, those who had retreated from the defense line and those who were preparing to go out to collect supplies gradually gathered together to prepare for a meal, and the aroma of food quickly filled the entire Northbank Defense Line.

Aside from the first day being quite smelly.

After Chen Fan added another batch of "Wind Towers," the stench was significantly reduced. After all, it wasn't just a matter of smell; there were also many toxic gases inside, and prolonged exposure to such odors was certainly not a good thing.

Building Wind Tower requires the Exotic Treasures "Windshield Bead" and "Wind-Calming Pearl".

Not a particularly Rare Exotic Treasure.

After so much development in the Mortal Domain, we have managed to collect quite a few of these Exotic Treasures.

The steaming hot "Black Bean Steamed Ribs" and other hot dishes were quickly devoured.

On the top of the wall of the Northbank Defense Line.

Tianyi of Eternal Night Hall looked at the Black Bean Steamed Ribs black beans, stir-fried Garlic Romaine, Bone Soup, and Rice on the table in front of him. His stomach couldn't hold back any longer and began to rumble. He looked up at Chen Fan somewhat embarrassedly: "Um... Domain Lord Chen, I'll start eating first." "Eat together."

Chen Fan chuckled and said, "It's just some simple home-cooked food. Please forgive any shortcomings in our hospitality."

"That's plenty enough, really!"

After taking Tianyi deep breath, Tianyi couldn't wait to pick up a piece of pork rib and stuff it into his mouth. It had been so long since he had eaten such a proper meal.

The enticing aroma made his mouth water uncontrollably.

But after taking the first bite of rib, his facial expression suddenly began to contort.

"Hot?"

"No..." Tianyi mumbled as he swallowed the rib, removed the bone, and set it aside. A little embarrassed, he said, "It's been so long since I've eaten anything this hard; I'm not used to it, and my teeth are a bit sore."

Immediately afterwards.

Before he could speak, he began wolfing down his food again, behaving extremely poorly.

He ate without any qualms.

If Domain Lord Chen had arranged this meal specifically to entertain him, he would have felt somewhat uneasy while eating, but when he saw that everyone on the Northbank Defense Line was eating the same thing, he felt much more at ease.

The Fat Man on Night Watcher next to him also made an extra movement for the first time, occasionally picking up a piece of rib and putting it in his bowl.

A groan could be heard every now and then.

Those were painful groans, like those of a terminally ill cancer patient eating—extremely painful.

Chen Fan watched this scene in silence. The people of the Eternal Night Hall were living a much harder life than he had imagined, even worse than the North River Chen Family. The North River Chen Family could have meat and vegetables at every meal.

Meanwhile, those on the Eternal Night Front could only eat Fried Noodles made from stir-fried flour; they couldn't even get any vegetables.

"Domain Lord Chen."

Tianyi quickly wolfed down her food, put down her chopsticks, looked up at Chen Fan, and grinned, her eyes slightly red. "If you can really get the food to the Frontline One, many people will be very grateful to you."

"Many people, on their deathbed, say in their last words that they want to have a good, satisfying meal."

I want to have a nice meal.

"As part of the Field Operations Group, I actually have opportunities to get meals, since I can operate in the hinterland, but... I don't want to sneak a meal alone behind my brothers' backs."

"I just couldn't resist today."

"That was awesome! Absolutely awesome!"

"I think."

Even if I die tomorrow, I will have no regrets.

"There's one more thing. I've already reported the potential of the Mortal Domain to the Eternal Night Hall. Last night I learned that the Northbank Defense Line wasn't built by any Builder; it was all done by you, Domain Lord Chen."

"Builder of this caliber, even if Jiangbei falls, you, Domain Lord Chen, cannot be allowed to get hurt."

"So I told my Master immediately."

Don't worry.

As if knowing what Chen Fan was thinking, Tianyi took a deep breath and said seriously, "I only told my Master. Normally, he's not my superior, but it's important, so I didn't dare go through the normal channels."

"He didn't tell anyone else. He holds a very high position in the Eternal Night Hall and would never leak the information."

"I have urgent business to attend to at the Yellow Springs Pass Canyon, so I won't delay any longer."

"Keep this Parent-Child Stone safe. It can be used for long-distance communication. You can contact me directly, and I will let you know immediately if anything happens." After saying that, he said this.

The two bid farewell and boarded Flying Boat, gradually disappearing from sight.

They left with extreme decisiveness.

Sitting in his chair, Chen Fan slowly picked up a spare rib, put it in his bowl, and leaned back in his chair, remaining calm and silent.

After a long while.

He couldn't help but chuckle softly.

He had already figured out a rough plan for laying the cables last night.

The Western Region hinterland of the Eternal Night Continent.

The City, situated on the plains, was bustling with activity, a Stronghold of the Eternal Night Hall responsible for the transshipment of supplies, information exchange, and Western Region coordination.

At this moment.

Inside a private house within the City.

An Elderly Man with white hair sat alone at a tea table. The incense burner in front of him was piled with ashes, from which a wisp of cigarette smoke wafted. The Elderly Man seemed dazed, simply sipping one cup of tea after another.

I don't know how much time passed.

The Elderly Man got up, closed the doors and windows, activated the Formation Disc, and took out a Ghost Bone from his Storage Ring. As soon as the Ghost Bone was taken out, it spontaneously combusted without wind. The black smoke formed by the Ghost Bone condensed in the air and did not dissipate.

In the blink of an eye.

A dark figure emerged faintly from the black smoke. The figure seemed very happy, and its voice echoed from afar inside the room.

"You finally contacted us. This is the best decision you've ever made."

"As long as the information you provide is important enough."

"When the Strange Entity Clan conquers the Eternal Night Continent, they will guarantee your entire family wealth and honor, and grant you a wisp of Heavenly Dao's Blessing that will extend your life by a hundred years."

The moment the shadow appeared.

The Elderly Man's dazed look vanished instantly. He knew there was no turning back. Even if he said nothing, if he were found out, he would still face death.

After a brief pause.

He looked down at the incense burner on the tea table and said softly.

"Jiangbei has been defended. A faction called 'Jiangbei Mortal Domain' has built a Level 6 defense line in Northbank Defense Line without any external support."

"And"

"The leader of this faction, Chen Fan, is a very capable Builder; he single-handedly built the Northbank Defense Line."

He reported back to Tianyi in detail the news he had received.

"Receive."

The dark figure chuckled and then slowly disappeared.

The black smoke did not dissipate; instead, it quickly condensed and formed a Ghost Bone once again.

Just then

A knocking sounded abruptly at the door.

The Elderly Man quickly stored the General Strange bone in his Storage Ring, shut down the Formation Disc, sat back down at the tea table, coughed lightly, and then said in a deep voice, "Come in." Very quickly.

A young man rushed in, somewhat flustered, his voice brimming with excitement. "Old Zhang, good news has come from the front lines of Eternal Night's Western Frontline One! They said they've captured a Blue-Grade Building Blueprint!"

"Let's send Builder over there quickly to the Western Frontline One to study the Building Blueprints."

"Snort."

The Elderly Man snorted coldly, somewhat displeased, and said, "According to the normal procedure, they should be sending the Building Blueprints to the rear, not us sending the Builder over."

However, he could understand.

All defense lines hoped to comprehend these Rare Building Blueprints and build them on their own lines as soon as possible, so that was indeed the initial rule. However, later it turned into sending Builder to the Frontline instead.

Otherwise, the Frontline would rather keep the knowledge to themselves than share it with the rear.

Who knew that after giving it to the rear, it would be an eternity before we even got to build our own defenses?

He didn't say much.

He glanced at the somewhat excited young man in front of him and sighed. The higher one stands, the more one knows, and the less hope one has for the future of the Eternal Night Continent.

Eternal Night Continent

There is no future.

At present, it is already extremely difficult to just defend, let alone launch a counterattack.

He needs to leave himself a way out.

He didn't want to go down to the Seabed with a ship that was destined to sink.

He knew that the words of the Strange Entity Clan might not be trustworthy.

They also knew that only by exterminating all humans on the entire Eternal Night Continent could they completely conquer Eternal Night Continent.

But

He figured that since the Strange Entity Clan so revered human culture, they would surely try to preserve some human life, right?

There are other ways to circumvent this.

For example, when the situation is already settled, these surrendered humans can be temporarily placed at sea, and then brought back to the Eternal Night Continent the Strange Entity Clan has completely occupied it.

"Humans are truly a race blessed by fortune."

In the darkness.

A Ghost Emperor sat on his Throne in the Great Hall, gazing at the intelligence reports handed to him by the Strange Entities below, muttering in a daze.

He hadn't expected it.

Even in such an environment, miracles can still happen within humanity.

In a barren region called "Western Wasteland Island," a powerful force has risen to prominence and built its own Northbank Defense Line. Their efforts over the years to block the route from the Eternal Night Hall to Western Wasteland Island are all aimed at causing the fall of Jiangbei.

This would allow the Strange Tide to land, and with the help of both inside and outside forces, invade the heartland.

It posed a threat to the "Western Frontline One the Eternal Night Continent" from the side, but unexpectedly... it was still held.

It's just that the Eternal Night Hall didn't manage to defend it.

Instead, it is a force called "Jiangbei Mortal Domain".

He had never even heard of this organization.

He looked down at the Map in his hand and pondered for a long time. After clicking on the Map a few times, he finally gave the order, "Give the word that a batch of Strange Tides from the 'Western Frontline One of the Eternal Night Continent' Sea Domain be smuggled to the 'Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line' Sea Domain."

"At top speed and at all costs, invade the Yellow Springs Mountain Range Region."

"Then we'll enter the Yellow Springs Mountain Range Region, head west, break through the 'Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line,' and travel from the heart of the Eternal Night Continent to Jiangbei to destroy the Mortal Domain." The words fell.

A Male Wraith kneeling on the Great Hall stood frozen in place, looking up at the Ghost Emperor sitting on the Throne in shock.

"King"

"Our previous attempts to allow some of the Strange Tide from the 'Western Frontline One of the Eternal Night Continent' to sneak across to the outside of the Autumn Bright Basin Defense Line have already incurred enormous costs. If they were to cross the Autumnbright Basin and sneak across to the Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line, the cost would be even greater."

"This will make it more difficult for us to capture Frontline One."

"A Mortal Domain"

Is it worth paying such a high price?

"Value."

The Ghost Emperor sat on his Throne, his face calm and Ice-Cold as he said, "Whether or not we can capture the Frontline One is not so important. Even if the Eternal Night Continent can hold this Frontline, there will eventually be other Frontline that cannot be held."

"Unless a miracle occurs, the Eternal Night Continent is doomed to defeat."

"What we need to do is nip any potential miracles in the bud."

"If it weren't for the fact that the nodes of the Eternal Night Continent were so troublesome and the cost of smuggling them out was too high, I would have preferred to send a large army directly to the 'Northbank Defense Line' and wipe out the Mortal Domain from the front as quickly as possible."

"We don't need to take such a long detour."

The Ghost Emperor slowly rose, walked behind the Throne, looked at the couplet hanging on the wall, and said softly with a slight smile on his lips.

In human culture, there is a military strategy called "speed is of the essence in war."

"So"

"Let the Jiangbei Mortal Domain experience firsthand what the Strange Entity Clan's swift and decisive military tactics truly mean."

"Clear."

The Male Wraith kneeling on the ground said nothing more, but simply retreated in response.

Eternal Nightfall.

The sky darkened again.

In the vast Sea Domain in front of the 108-kilometer-long "Western Frontline One of the Eternal Night Continent," countless Strange Tides surged from the seawater and began to rush towards the defense line, accompanied by explosions that filled the sky.

A new night of city defense has begun.

But

In the depths of the Sea Domain.

Large numbers of Strange Tides were gathering on the sea surface, neatly clustered together, with extremely clear boundaries.

One of the Greater Wraith Strange Entities, suspended in the air, turned its head to look at the deserted Sea Domain to the north, and Ice-Cold ordered, "Northward! Forward!"

The next moment!

Obeying orders, a massive Strange Tide swept across the sea, continuously heading northwards.

Just then...

"Boom!"

The Strange Entities at the forefront had just stepped into the empty area when a bolt of Strange Entities struck without warning, turning the Strange Entities and all the surrounding Strange Entities into ashes.

As more and more Strange Tide into this area.

A dense barrage of lightning bolts struck continuously.

A rich, burnt aroma filled the air.

The whole scene resembled an electric fly swatter being used against an extremely dense swarm of mosquitoes, with a constant crackling sound.

The fearless Strange Tide completely ignored the lightning that filled the sky, obeyed orders, and continued northward. Even though countless Strange Entities perished under the lightning, a group of lucky ones eventually crossed the area. After sprinting for dozens of meters, there was no more lightning overhead.

About an hour.

This enormous Strange Tide finally passed through the "Death Zone," but less than one in ten survived. The Greater Wraith hovering in the air looked at the scene before it with some heartache, lamenting the needless loss of its forces.

He looked at the Greater Wraith hovering in the air opposite the Death Zone.

This Strange Tide.

It has successfully arrived in the Sea Domain "Autumnbright Basin".

His mission is complete.

The two Greater Wraith exchanged a glance across the distance and nodded in understanding.

Like a relay baton.

The Greater Wraith, suspended in the air above Sea Domain "Autumnbright Basin," continued its northward journey across the sea, carrying the Strange Tide. Before long, it arrived at another area where not a single Strange Entities could be seen.

"Head north, proceed."

The Greater Wraith issued another order.

The Strange Tide below surged towards this Death Zone once more, with Heavenly Thunder. These Strange Tides, which had managed to pass through the first Death Zone, once again rushed headlong into this Death Zone before them.

About half an hour.

This wave of Strange Tides once again passed through the Death Zone and successfully reached the Sea Domain the "Yellow Springs Mountains".

But.

Again, less than one in ten survives.

A Greater Wraith standing above the Yellow Springs Mountains Sea Domain had successfully received the Strange Tide. It exchanged a glance with the Greater Wraith responsible for transporting the Strange Tide and nodded again.

"Help! Help!"

The 27-kilometer-long "Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line" suddenly erupted with a piercing roar filled with intense fear.

The person in charge of the Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line shouted at the Parent-Child Stones in his hand, "The number of Strange Tides has suddenly increased tonight. Requesting support! Requesting support!" Under the cover of night.

An almost endless, Strange Tide descended from the Seabed, surging towards the defense line with a ferocity and devastation greater than ever before.

The Cannon Tower on the defensive line fired almost frantically.

But it still couldn't stop it.

More and more Strange Entities are stepping over the corpses of their companions to rush up the defensive line.

"Call for help!"

Just then

The command room, located on the "defense City Wall," was suddenly smashed open by a Strange Entities.

A flicker of despair crossed the eyes of the Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line Commander. His voice trembled as he shouted, "The Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line has fallen. No reinforcements are needed. Go and support the 'Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line.' Their objective is..."

The sound stopped abruptly.

This enormous, Strange Entities opened its massive mouth, filled with sharp teeth and dripping with a viscous, foul-smelling liquid, and swallowed the man's head along with the Parent-Child Stone whole.

The Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line have been completely breached tonight.

More and more Strange Tide climbed the City Walls and converged, heading deep into the heart of the Yellow Springs Mountain Range Region in the darkness and rain, towards the "Yellow Springs Pass Canyon" defense line!

It's the Rainy Season.

There are already many Strange Entities in it.

All the Strange Entities along the way were drawn into this Strange Tide.

The horde of Strange Tide grew larger and larger, yet they completely ignored even a City they passed by, showing no desire to attack it, even though the City was practically Unbreakable against this Strange Tide.

The Strange Tide did not stop there.

The goal is extremely clear.

Head to the "Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line," break through the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line, enter the West Pass Plains, and proceed to Jiangbei.

"Hurry, hurry!!"

The Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line, having just received the news, was in complete disarray. They had been defending the "West Pass Plains" for a long time, and now that their rear had fallen, they had to make rapid adjustments.

The Cannon Tower began to rotate rapidly, aiming at the heart of the Yellow Springs Mountain Range Region.

In the darkness of night.

Silence.

Within the range of the Eerie Fire, one could only see the torrential rain, but not any Strange Entities.

The Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line Commander, somewhat anxiously, repeatedly shouted at the Parent-Child Stones in his hand, "The Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line Commander, summon the person in charge of the 'Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line'!"

Repeat this three times.

But no one answered.

Even though he had received news that the Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line had fallen, he still clung to a sliver of hope and called out.

"No problem."

Just then

Tianyi of Eternal Night Hall patted the person in charge on the shoulder and said in a deep voice, "The number of Strange Tides in the Yellow Springs Sea is not too large. The fact that they can destroy the Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line means that the number of Strange Tide tides is not many. The Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line can be held."

"Not to mention"

"We're still here."

The Yellow Springs Mouth Defense Line Commander breathed a slight sigh of relief upon seeing Tianyi and the Fat Man beside him, realizing he had somewhat lost his composure. "I... this is my first time being in charge of the defense line, and I haven't experienced the Strange Tide yet."

"It's nothing."

Tianyi smiled and said, "You'll have more experience next time."

However

As the first Strange Entities rushed from the darkness into the range of the Eerie Fire, followed by an endless Strange Tide rushing from the darkness into the range of the Eerie Fire, the Tianyi instantly changed color.

This number of Strange Tides Strange Tide definitely not the number that should exist in the "Yellow Springs Mouth Sea"!

At a glance, there were hundreds of Wraith Kings and dozens of Greater Wraith. And this was only the first wave of Strange Tide rushing into the Eerie Fire's range. This was not the intensity of Strange Tide that should exist in the Yellow Springs Mouth Sea.

Almost instantly.

He then understood what was going on.

When I was reporting on the Mortal Domain to my Master suddenly asked whether this news should be told only to me, or whether it should be reported through normal channels and then told to him separately.

For some reason, he suddenly became suspicious and said that the news had already been reported through normal channels, but he wanted to tell his Master separately.

He Trust his Master completely.

His Master took him in.

His Master led him to join the Eternal Night Hall.

Only.

When he saw this Strange Tide, which was completely unlike anything he should see in the "Yellow Springs Mouth Sea," rushing here at such a fast speed, he knew that his Master had leaked the information.

These Strange Tides didn't even destroy the Cities along their path.

This demonstrates that the objective is extremely clear.

They broke through the "Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line," entered the West Pass Plains, and annihilated the Mortal Domain.

"Master!"

Tianyi suddenly laughed bitterly, feeling a tightness in his chest that made him uncomfortable. The raging fire that had been burning within him intensified. He had never imagined that his Master would betray the Eternal Night Sect.

Master

You're clearly the one who wants to win the most.

He took out the Parent-Child Stone from his pocket, contacted his superior, and said each word with a trembling voice.

"Eternal Night Hall, Tianyi."

"I have important news to report: the Jiangbei Mortal Domain has risen to prominence, breaching a Sixth-Level Defense Line to Suppression Jiangbei. Furthermore, the Mortal Domain Lord the Jiangbei Mortal Realm is an extremely powerful Builder."

"I only reported this news to my Master yesterday."

"He leaked the information."

"The Strange Entity Clan spared no effort in sending out the Strange Tide to smuggle into the 'Yellow Springs Mouth Sea,' and has now breached the 'Yellow Springs Coast Defense Line,' and is currently attacking the 'Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line.'"

After reporting this news.

He contacted Chen Fan again, his voice trembling with shame.

"Domain Lord Chen."

"The news has leaked; my Master is... Mole. The Strange Entity Clan has dispatched a large army to attack the 'Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line,' and it is expected to break through soon. Please, Mortal Domain, prepare as soon as possible."

After witnessing the intensity of this Strange Tide...

He knew that the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line couldn't be breached; the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line wasn't meant to deal with this kind of intense Strange Tide.

This intensity of the Strange Tide far exceeds the intensity of the Strange Tides faced by the "Defense Line Seven" and the "Northbank Defense Line".

The next moment

More and more of the Strange Tides have rushed into the range of the Eerie Fire.

The artillery on the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line began firing incessantly, but faced with such a large and intense Strange Tide, they seemed somewhat overwhelmed. "Whoosh!"

Tianyi slowly closed his eyes, picked up a knife, and stood on the wall of the Yellow Springs Pass Defense Line. When he opened his eyes again, boundless rage erupted as if he had been squatting down.

Countless Rifts suddenly appeared on the surface of the body.

Like a shattered doll.

Scarlet Grade Flames continued to erupt from the Rifts.

Tianyi took a deep breath, gripped his Great Knife, looked down at the endless Strange Tide below the defensive line, leaped into the air, and, like a meteor enveloped in Crimson Flames, crashed into the Strange Tide.

The Strange Entities that Ding approached was instantly burned to ashes.

He roared, his voice filled with rage.

"Eternal Night Hall, Tianyi"

"Here I am!"
