My worst fears have come true!
The Shen Family ' faces instantly turned icy cold.
Compared to some giant serpent from outer space, the thing inside Jiangnan is the biggest hidden danger.
Even King Level Heavenly Python, protected by the barrier array Chen Qing had prepared in advance, and reinforced by the army's formation, is not without the power to resist. But the one inside is a different story!
The West Sea Dragon King, one of the most ferocious creatures of antiquity, once held the human race captive for hundreds of thousands of years. He was a being far more dangerous than the so-called extraterrestrial giant serpent in terms of power, resources, and cunning!
"What happened? Where are the West Sea Aquatic Clan?"
"I don't know," the messenger said, his face pale with fear. " The Deputy General Bai in charge of guarding the Dragon Palace contacted the aquatic tribes of the West Sea immediately, but there has been no response!"
"What's going on now?" Old Shen Laosan asked gently, "Don't worry, tell me slowly."
"The barrier is destroyed!" the soldier hurriedly reported. "The barrier set up by Lord Ziyue has been completely destroyed. The West Sea Dragon Palace is in chaos, and many monsters have suddenly appeared. Deputy General Bai has already led the guarding West Sea Army to fight them and sent me to request reinforcements."
"Requesting reinforcements." The Shen Family looked at each other; where in Jiangnan could they find any reinforcements now?
Jiangnan has risen to prominence in just a few years, and its current military strength is already rare in the world. However, due to its rapid expansion, it is still not enough. The current Fighter Army has a total of 300,000 soldiers, with 50,000 elite troops. Half of the elite troops and auxiliary soldiers have been taken to Hainan by Lord Ziyue.
Xu Hu led 10,000 elite troops and 100,000 auxiliary soldiers to guard North Sea City. In the southeast, there were also 50,000 Fighter Army stationed there. In addition to the defensive troops deployed by the West Sea Dragon Palace, there was no large-scale military force in Jiangnan except for the city guards responsible for the city's defense.
"The only way to provide support is to use the ghost soldiers," Shen Laosan said, frowning. "But if the ghost soldiers are taken away, Jiangnan will be completely empty, especially Liuzhou."
Everyone looked at Wei Gongcheng, who was in pain, their expressions filled with conflict.
They do have some ghost soldiers under their command, which are used to hunt down evil spirits on a daily basis. The scale is not large. Nanming Prefecture and Nanyang City, as major cities, have a few, but only two or three thousand. Adding the ones Shen Shiyi others have trained during this period, the total is no more than ten thousand. Compared to the scale of Liuzhou, it is more than ten times smaller.
At this point, Wei Gongcheng is the most important person to provide support.
"Can I know what's going on?" the woman suddenly asked.
Shen Lao'er and Shen Laosan exchanged glances, and finally Shen San spoke up and briefly explained the situation.
"You've trapped the West Sea Dragon King? Wow, you guys are pretty capable." The woman immediately became interested. "This is only the first version, right? You can control the West Sea Dragon King? I've never heard of this kind of game before."
"Young lady," Shen Laosan Human Dao still seemed relatively calm, "You are an old acquaintance of our master and know about Nine Heavens Mirror Valley. Could you perhaps help us?"
"What do you want me to do?" the woman asked curiously.
Shen Lao'er frowned. They didn't know anything about this woman, let alone what she was capable of.
"Can you save our Lord Wei?"
"Him?" The woman glanced at Wei Gongcheng, then shook her head. "Troublesome. The evil spirit that invaded him is no ordinary being. Logically speaking, it's impossible for Divine Path Style Underworld being possessed by an evil spirit, not even Ghost King, unless..."
"What do you know, young lady?" Shen San asked hastily.
"Is he important?"
"Only he can mobilize troops to support the West Sea!" Shen Lao'er added, "Otherwise, if that one from the Dragon Palace escapes, you should know the consequences."
"That's quite troublesome." The woman nodded. "I can try, but it will take time."
"Approximately how long?"
"About half a day," the woman estimated.
"In that case," Shen Lao'er said to Shen San, " Laosan, you stay here with this senior. I'll take some men to investigate the West Sea Dragon Palace."
"Second brother, you?" Shen San was taken aback.
Going to the West Sea at this time is practically suicide.
"Don't worry," Shen Lao'er laughed, "Although the Dragon Palace is in chaos, the situation won't be as exaggerated as you think. No matter how powerful the Dragon King is, he still needs a lot of Blood Essence Stone to revive. Although we don't know who destroyed the magic array, reviving the Dragon King will require at least a lot of blood resources. They will need some time; it won't be that quick."
Even so, it's too dangerous for you to go alone.
The Dragon Palace is not the Nanming Prefecture. Although Second Brother is Underworld Underworld Nanming Prefecture, belonging to the same level as Wei Gongcheng, his strength is far inferior to Xu Hu's if he leaves Nanming Prefecture. At this time, the safest approach would be to call Xu Hu back.
"Why don't we call Fifth Brother back?" Shen Shiyi suggested.
Upon hearing this, Shen Laosan nodded in agreement. "It would be appropriate to call Laowu back."
After Lao Wu transformed into a dragon, his strength rivaled that of Ao Zhen. At his peak, he could last three hundred rounds against Ao Zhen, making him arguably the strongest after Tian Heng and Xu Hu.
" Laowu can't come back," Shen Lao'er shook his head. " Tian Heng is extremely ambitious. Without Laowu watching over him, he might actually do something like betraying and killing our allies. I don't agree with Tian Heng's plan. At this time, having the imperial court to help us withstand the pressure is definitely better than us being attacked from all sides."
"But second brother, you..."
"It's alright. Your second brother has been through a lot in his own time. I'm not as easy to kill as you think. Just wait for my news."
The woman watched their conversation and nodded slightly. Chen Qing's subordinates were quite reliable.
pity--
"Looks like it's done over there."
Deep within the West Sea Dragon Palace, in that incredibly dark abyss, the West Sea Dragon King, sealed by black ice, looked at his subordinates who were reporting to him, his voice hoarse.
"Your Majesty, is now truly the time? That woman has left behind quite a few valuable things to guard against us."
The voice was alluring; it was a purebred Naga siren. Those familiar with the species in the Dragon Palace knew that this was a high-level siren comparable to a true dragon, making it extremely rare.
Only one has been revived so far, used to maintain the spiritual fields of the West Sea. This sea monster has been quite obedient since it was thawed, but it is still being watched closely. Unexpectedly, it was still tipping off the Dragon King.
"That woman is quite remarkable. Our Dragon Palace's magic arrays have only been developed in a few years, yet she has researched and developed them to this extent. Especially that Blazing Yang Grand Formation, if the energy is sufficient, it wouldn't be a problem to defend against King Level expert!"
"Of course she's powerful." The Dragon King sneered, "How could someone who's been specially marked by the envoy be anything less than formidable? Don't let her current frighteningly weak appearance fool you; back in that great war, our ancestors weren't even qualified to sit at the table."
"If that's the case, why bother?"
"Because they lost back then!" the Dragon King said coldly. "Would you stand on the side of the loser?"
He then looked towards the collapsing magic array in the distance and said, "Look, so many magic arrays have collapsed. What do you think is the reason?"
"You mean that girl named Ziyue?"
"It's almost done." The West Sea Dragon King slowly closed his eyes and said, "They couldn't defeat us back then, and it's the same now. How are the preparations for the Blood Essence Stone coming along?"
"That's about it. Please be patient; you'll be free in half a day at most."
"Freedom?" The West Sea Dragon King scoffed. "What freedom do beings like us have? From birth, our potential is locked. We are merely stepping stones for others. To change this, we must possess a designer. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. In our clan, only one person succeeded back then. The chance now won't be much greater. We absolutely cannot miss it!!"
