Xuanqiong Realm, outer patrol region, Transit Station Eleven.
Situated between Realm City and the Xuanqiong Realm, this was where most passing flying boats replenished their supplies, and where demon-hunting teams rested and regrouped.
After arriving at the Outer Realm Battlefield, Li Chengyi had taken a post in the Demon Suppression Mansion, becoming one of the attendants stationed here.
At that moment, he sat cross-legged in a quiet chamber, regulating his breathing and cultivating.
With his Yin-Yang Realm cultivation and the various treasures Li Miaoxuan and Gu Yuanqing had given him, protecting himself here posed no difficulty. Even so, he still needed to remain cautious.

A deafening explosion rang out.
Li Chengyi hurried outside and immediately looked up. In the distant Realm City, light flashed with blinding brilliance.
"What happened?"
Li Chengyi's pupils contracted.
"That looks like an explosion in the Realm City's core. Something has gone wrong with the Protection Grand Formation! Could it be a heavenly demon attack? But... even a chaos heaven deathless great demon would struggle to breach a Realm City. Could it be at the Void Immortal level?"
Dingyuan City was not far ahead. Li Chengyi concentrated power into his eyes and gazed into the distance, but saw no sign of any heavenly demons.
His heart sank. A disaster like this meant something had happened that he knew nothing about.
Alarms were already ringing throughout the transit station. Countless people emerged from their quiet chambers, their expressions changing.
Anyone could tell that something terrible had happened. If something went wrong with the Realm City, a gap would open in their defenses against the heavenly demons, and the entire situation
