Xiao Tian's confident interview spread across the internet in major cities.

Many people are curious about Perfected Xuantian, so a lot of information about the Jade Void Palace has been unearthed.

Here, naturally, are the clever people in the Eight Sceneries Palace and Biyou Palace who never miss a good show.

The forum for the Evolver World was once again flooded with posts, mainly featuring the names of the Jade Void Palace and Perfected Xuantian.

Three days later.

Posts began appearing on the forum for the Evolver World, revealing that the Luo Cheng's defenses had been completed!

The city's protective formation seems to have been breached!

There was no significant disturbance whatsoever, such as rolling auspicious clouds, thunder and lightning filling the sky, or Kakkō covering the entire city and then disappearing.

This disappointed many who had been hoping to see the grand formation succeed.

In Luo Cheng, many people were queuing up to complete the formalities.

To ensure that the number of people in the queue does not become too large, the number of people in the queue is first randomly selected from the reservations made on the local official website and then their real identity information is verified.

This procedure is naturally a formality for someone holding the identity of a resident of Luo Cheng, granting them access to the grand formation.

Xiao Tian was exhausted. Making identity badges was a huge undertaking, and Luo Cheng had a large population.

In his office, Xiao Tian Xiao Tian sipped his iced Cola, observing the clones of his own clone—these "tools" who were helping to make the badges—and smiled with satisfaction.

"Awesome! This is life!"

Luo Xue from the Biyou Palace walked into the office at this moment.

"Beautiful Xue, you've come at the perfect time. Take these badges out."

Luo Xue rolled her eyes, as if she were a servant of the city lord's mansion.

"Alright, Xiao Tian, I called you to inquire about the city's protective formation. Can the blueprints be shared?"

Xiao Tian had expected someone to come and ask for it. He smiled, opened the drawer, and took out a thick stack of blueprints.

"Here you go, arm yourself for Dragon City."

" Xiao Tian, don't be nervous, I'll just make a copy, thank you."

Luo Xue checked it and her expression quickly changed drastically.

"Can this really work?"

Luo Xue was a little confused, looking at Xiao Tian. This city protection plan had also been mentioned in Dragon City, but they felt it was impossible to implement. The array master said that the final core hub was just a concept and that it would be too Fei Tian to create successfully.

"That's how it is," Xiao Tian said nonchalantly.

Luo Xue was speechless. Who would have thought that the defensive formation of Luo Cheng, apart from the Tongtian city walls, had such a sloppy and haphazard blueprint?

Thank you. Do you have some free time? I'll be away on a business trip for about two weeks.

Xiao Tian couldn't help but roll his eyes; he knew what Luo Xue was going to say.

"The central core component has to be built last; there probably isn't enough time."

"Is that so?" Luo Xue thought Xiao Tian was unwilling to go to Dragon City, and scrutinized him carefully, but found no flaws.

"In that case, I hope you can come to Dragon City when we're close to the core hub stage."

Xiao Tian Xiao with a smile.

When he said there wasn't enough time, he meant that the mysterious fog was about to arrive. The speed at which Dragon City could set up its defenses wouldn't be as fast as his, after all, Dragon City was four times the size of Luo Cheng and had a more complex terrain, so there would be quite a few more Spirit Gathering Formation to set up.

Xiao Tian didn't expose it, since saying it outright would only cause him trouble.

Although this will cause unnecessary waste of materials in Dragon City, there are still some benefits.

If Dragon City follows up correctly and also builds a Tongtian Wall, the benefits will be self-evident.

Upon returning to Dragon City, Luo Xue brought the blueprints to the Overlord. The Overlord convened another meeting, and the powerful figures present fell silent as they looked at the blueprints.

Five minutes later.

That's it?

"If Luo Cheng is really like that, then we'll need at least twice as much time to complete the project. Dragon City has a complex terrain, and the amount of Spirit Gathering Formation required is on a completely different level. Besides, this core hub..."

The Overlord said, "Once the entire process is completed, City Lord Xiao Tian, the core central authority, can handle it on his behalf."

The bigwigs present smiled, which put their minds at ease.

In their view, the core hub would consume far too many rare and precious materials, and they had no experience with a 100% success rate. It was indeed not a worthwhile business. Now that someone else was doing the business, that was naturally a good thing.

Soon, the proposal on the forum for the protective formation of the Dragon City, which Evolver World City was following up with that of Luo Cheng, sparked considerable discussion.

For a moment, it seemed that the youngest brother, A Luo, had suddenly shown off his intelligence, and the eldest brother A Long, wanted to show off his intelligence for the sake of his status. So, the youngest sister, A Feng, seeing that her eldest brother had also done it, immediately followed suit, and the youngest brothers, A Yun and A Ye, quickly followed.

Xiao Tian was almost laughing out loud in his office in the city lord's mansion. He really hadn't expected there to be so many funny things on the forum.

"Hey, I just played a trick on you, and wow, all the cities are following suit! So many rare and precious treasures! Are you sure you have enough array masters? It's a pity that time waits for no one, otherwise I would have to be away on business for several months before I can come back to enjoy this life."

Time flies! More than a month has passed!

In Dragon City, due to its abundant resources, the plan was progressing rapidly, and Xiao Tian, far away in Luo Cheng, received a wireless message from the Overlord.

The Overlord indicated that they expected to wrap things up in three days, at which point he would begin the process of establishing the core control center.

Xiao Tian was in a bind. He began to doubt whether the Great Calamity of the Mysterious Mist was actually part of the Primordial Hongmeng Plan, and why it hadn't arrived yet.

Now that I've received the message, I have no choice but to stay in the city today.

"Get ready, Fatty, Fengzi, we're heading to Dragon City."

Chu Feng stood by the window, gazing at the sky. Upon hearing Xiao Tian's words, he couldn't help but say, "Let's wait until the afternoon."

"Oh ho? What time in the afternoon?"

Chu Feng remained silent.

Seeing Chu Feng's pretentious attitude, Xiao Tian was speechless.

"Then let's wait until after lunch to leave."

After lunch, an elder from the city lord's mansion arrived, urging Xiao Tian to set off. Xiao Tian, with his exceptional hearing, was nearly furious. Was he supposed to fight alone in the mist?

Zhou Quan, acting as an assistant, persuaded the elder to leave, citing that Xiao Tian was still organizing necessary supplies.

The elder responded to the Dragon City officials.

"No need to rush. City Lord Xiao is in charge of a crucial part, so it's natural that he needs time to prepare. If City Lord Xiao hasn't set off by a day, then contact me."

In the city lord's office, Xiao Tian was waiting, with Cola and roast chicken prepared.

"You 'Fengzi! How can you be so sure something'll happen this afternoon? You're the undisputed Grandmaster of stargazing!"

Chu Feng remained silent, staring blankly at the sky outside the window with an indifferent expression.

" Brother Tian, don't talk to Fengzi. This guy is really unpredictable right now. Let's just eat and drink and wait to be carried away."

"Yeah, just have fun. Wuhu, take off!"

4 PM!

"They're here," Chu Feng said, turning to look at Xiao Tian and Zhou Quan.

"Let's get started."

"What's all this fuss about? What is it?" Zhou Quan was completely confused.

Xiao Tian understood Chu Feng's words, and a hint of cunning appeared on his smile.

"Let's begin."

At the city gate, some travelers and merchants, peering through the open gate, noticed that the fog was thickening in the distance.

"What's going on? It's foggy in the middle of the afternoon."

"This is too ominous; let's postpone this delivery."

The squad leader guarding the gate received instructions from his superior on the city wall, and his expression changed drastically.

"Get into the city quickly! It'll be locked down!"

This left everyone who was planning to leave the city dumbfounded! They were all terrified! They realized what was happening!

"Soldier! Is there something terrifying inside the fog?!"

The squad leader guarding the gate said gravely, "That's right! You should go back quickly and consider leaving the city later."

"No! I have to get back to Dragon City quickly, my wife is waiting for my local specialties."

"Leaving the city is fine! But don't blame me if you lose your life!" the squad leader sneered.

This made the guy's scalp tingle, and he began to hesitate.

Soon everyone who wanted to enter the city had come in, and the squad leader quickly ordered the city gates to be closed.

"No! I still have to go! I'm strong enough, I refuse to believe that the fog can stop me from going back!"

boom!

As the man seized the opportunity to leave the city, the city gates closed.

"I wonder what's going on in the fog. I really want to go and see," someone said.

"Hey, I wonder how long this fog will last. My caravan loses a lot of money every day it stops."

"Ah!"

Clang! Clang! Clang! The sound of knocking on the city gate rang out!

People's faces changed; it was the scream of the guy from before.

"Don't Gate of Opening!" A deputy commander from the city lord's mansion, who was Evolver, led a hundred men to the scene.

"Hold this position! Once the city gates are breached, kill anyone or anything that enters!"

"Yes!"

On the city wall, the soldiers guarding the city narrowed their eyes, noticing the fog rapidly approaching and about to drift into the city.

Three seconds later, a pale white barrier, as thin as a cicada's wing, appeared, blocking the mist. Soon, ripples appeared from all directions, indicating that monsters were attacking.

"Be careful! Stay alert! There's something in the fog!"

People looked solemn; they were often afraid of the unknown, and they couldn't help but feel grateful for the appearance of this barrier.

"We put in a lot of effort into building the city's defenses back then, it was all worth it!" Looking at the many ripples on the barrier, like raindrops falling on the water, they were filled with awe and admiration.

" Grandmaster Long has arrived!"

Long Zaitian received instructions from Xiao Tian and rushed here.

"Everyone, be alert! Those who know ranged attacks can strike the strange entities within the fog. This barrier can withstand external attacks through your attacks."

"Hahaha! Grandmaster Long, you've come at the perfect time! I've been wanting to blast these trash out there with a burst of bullets for ages!"

That's exactly what I'm saying!

Long Zaitian laughed and said, "Who isn't?"

Suddenly, the city walls trembled, and the barrier rippled violently. The silhouette of a giant could be seen in the mist.

"Holy crap! Our city walls are nearly 600 meters high! This monster's height is terrifying!"

"So what if you're tall? Now that you're here, you're just waiting to be chopped down!" Grandmaster Long laughed, his lightsaber condensing in his hand. With fluid movements, he unleashed a powerful strike, and as black blood splattered onto the barrier, people were startled.

"Wow! Grandmaster Long is awesome! First kill achieved!"

The 600-meter-tall giant's head was severed by Long Zaitian!
