Spirit Platform Realm Speculation, the Demon Assault

Inside the rear command post on the Demon Capital Boundary Great Wall.

"He instantly killed Sea of Consciousness Realm with a single move?! And the Baihu was even by his side?!"

The Sun Grade investigator's hand, gripping the communicator, trembled slightly with extreme shock. His mind was in turmoil; countless previously fragmented clues were instantly linked together by the shocking intelligence.

"The hidden Variants in Demon Capital all died overnight..."

"After being possessed, the Qinglong disappeared, leaving behind a trail of demonic black water..."

"The crisis in Central Capital was quelled with a flick of a young man's wrist..."

The Sun Grade investigator took a deep breath, and an unprecedented glint of light flashed in his cloudy eyes.

"Able to silently wipe out all the Variants in the city, they have now saved Central Capital like divine soldiers descending from the heavens."

"Such methods, such terrifying power that completely overwhelms those in the Sea of Consciousness Realm..."

The Sun Grade investigator's heart pounded, and an awe-inspiring title surfaced in his mind.

"He's definitely not some young prodigy! He must be a reclusive master who has mastered the art of preserving youth or even reversing aging! His cultivation level... has most likely already reached the legendary [Spirit Platform Realm]!"

Thinking of this, the Sun Grade investigator's tone instantly became serious and solemn.

"Old Daoist! Listen up!"

"Whatever requests that senior may make, you must fulfill Central Capital unconditionally! You must treat this great figure as an honored guest and show absolutely no disrespect!"

"If this senior is willing to lend a helping hand... our Great Xia will be saved!"

Central Capital, the ruins of the International Martial Dao Expo Center.

The old Daoist priest in the green robe, who had just hung up the call, turned around and exchanged a glance with the old monk in the kasaya beside him. Both of them were shrewd people who had lived for over a hundred years, and naturally understood the deeper meaning in the Sun Grade investigator's words.

"A powerful expert at the Spirit Platform Realm..."

The two experts at the Sea of Consciousness Realm felt an even deeper sense of awe as they looked at Dongfang Yueming's extremely youthful face.

"Senior."

The old Daoist priest in the green robe stepped forward and bowed deeply with utmost respect.

"I am deeply grateful and cannot express my thanks. If you do not mind, Senior, the highest treasure trove of the Central Capital government is willing to open its doors to you. It contains all the rare resources and incomplete ancient books that our Great Xia has collected over the past few hundred years. You may take whatever you deem fit."

The old monk beside him also clasped his hands together, his face full of sincerity. "Amitabha, if you ever need our assistance, senior, the Central Capital will gladly face any danger, even unto death."

Faced with the invitation and overtures from two top figures in Central Capital.

Dongfang Yueming remained calm. He had no interest in those so-called resources or ordinary ancient books.

"Forget about the treasure vault."

Dongfang Yueming looked at the two of them and asked calmly, "I only have one question for you. You've been in the center of power in this Great Xia for so many years, do you know... the realms beyond the [Soul Condensation Realm], and the corresponding clues to their methods?"

"This..."

Upon hearing the words "Soul Condensation Realm," both powerful figures were taken aback, and then bitter and confused expressions appeared on their faces.

The old Daoist priest in the green robe shook his head and sighed, "Please forgive me, senior. Let alone the methods after the Soul Condensation Realm, even the Soul Condensation Realm itself is just a myth existing in ancient legends for us old folks who are still struggling in the Sea of Consciousness Realm."

The old monk also looked ashamed. "We monks do not lie. We truly know nothing about such a transcendent and supreme state."

Dongfang Yueming frowned slightly. They couldn't even find a clue about the heart of the Great Xia?

Is the limit of this land of exile truly only the Soul Condensation Realm?

Just then...

The old Daoist priest in the green robe seemed to remember something, hesitated for a moment, and then said:

"However... senior, if you truly wish to inquire about such ancient secrets, perhaps only one person might know a thing or two."

"Who?" A glint of light flashed in Dongfang Yueming's eyes.

"That ancestor who has been guarding the front line of the Demon Capital's Boundary, and who is currently the only one openly recognized among humanity—the [Spirit Platform Realm] Ancestor!"

"That esteemed person lived a very long time ago. If it were him, perhaps he could find the answer you seek among those ancient fragments and inscriptions."

"Spirit Platform Realm ancestor from the Boundary...?"

Dongfang Yueming nodded slightly. It seemed that he had no choice but to go to the Boundary line.

Not far behind the two.

The Baihu, who had been listening quietly to their conversation, now had a storm raging in its silvery-white eyes.

"What did he just ask? The methods after the Soul Condensation Realm?!"

Baihu stared intently at Dongfang Yueming's retreating figure, feeling his worldview being drastically overturned.

"Could it be... that he has already entered the Soul Condensation Realm?!"

Recalling Dongfang Yueming's almost miraculous, terrifying method of annihilating several top experts in an instant, Baihu suddenly felt that the Sun Grade investigator's guesses on the phone might have been too conservative!

This man is not only at the Spirit Platform Realm, he has very likely reached the limit of Soul Condensation!

Just as the crisis in Central Capital was averted and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

On the edge of Demon Capital, deep within that desolate swamp shrouded in endless darkness and demonic energy.

"Gurgle..."

A colossal monster, as large as a small mountain, exuding terror and causing the surrounding space to collapse eerily, suddenly opened its dozens of vertical pupils emitting a ghostly green light.

"Those useless bastards sent to Central Capital... have all lost their senses?"

The monster's voice sounded like scrap metal rubbing together, carrying a sense of oppression from a higher dimension.

"Even those two offspring at the Sea of the Sea of Consciousness Realm were instantly wiped out. It seems there's an unexpectedly large fish lurking among the humans."

This monster is one of the true masterminds behind this monster tide, a terrifying demon king who has reached the [Spirit Platform Realm]!

"Since the plan to raid the rear has failed..."

Cruel and insane demonic light simultaneously erupted from the Demon King's dozens of vertical pupils.

"Then let's crush their pathetic defenses with absolute force!"

"Pass on my order! All troops, attack! At all costs, tear apart the Boundary!"

"Roar--!!!"

Accompanied by the Demon King's furious roar.

Deep in the wilderness, the countless high-level demons that had been observing suddenly went berserk, as if they had received the horn of death!

The Demon Capital at the Boundary Great Wall.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The alarm blared with extreme shrillness!

"Sir! Extremely high energy reaction detected! Not just a few, but... hundreds and thousands!" The radar operator stared at the dense, even overlapping, red high-energy warning on the screen, his voice cracking with extreme fear.

"The monsters have launched their all-out attack!"

The commander of the Defense Army looked ashen-faced.

Outside the city walls.

The beast tide, which was already like a black tsunami, rose several meters higher at this moment!

At the heart of the beast tide.

A dozen or so enormous demonic beast lords, radiating terrifying [Sea of Consciousness Realm] power, crashed into the mental defenses erected by eleven powerful beings at the Sea of Consciousness Realm, carrying the might to destroy everything!

"Puff!"

"Snap!"

It was just a brief encounter.

The human defenses began to groan under the strain. Several powerful figures, including the Chu Family patriarch, who were already injured, coughed up blood, and their Mental Barrier instantly became cracked.

"We can't hold on any longer! There are too many!" the Tang Family patriarch roared in despair.

"Requesting support! Central Capital! Request support from Central Capital immediately!" The Sun Grade investigator shouted the order at the top of his lungs.

Central Capital Expo Center.

The old Daoist priest in the green robe had just severed emergency communications with the front lines, and his face was deathly pale.

"Senior, the monster tide has launched its final offensive! The front lines are in imminent danger! I must rush to the Demon Capital to provide support immediately!"

Without the slightest hesitation, the old Daoist priest and the old monk unleashed their inner energy and prepared to rush off.

"Let's go too."

Dongfang Yueming turned to look at Hong Gui and Baihu behind him.

"Okay!" Hong Gui nodded without hesitation.

Although the Baihu was filled with apprehension about the Boundary, it also knew that in this situation of a collapsed nest, no egg would remain intact.

Just as the four were preparing to set off.

The Demon Capital.

"Hehehe... Human beings, you ants, may you all become my provisions!"

Just as the human defense line was about to be completely torn apart by more than a dozen demonic creatures at the Sea of Consciousness Realm.

A terrifying pressure, far exceeding that of the Sea of Consciousness Realm and even causing all the surrounding demonic energy and true energy to momentarily freeze, descended upon the battlefield without warning!

"Boom!"

In the sky, a gigantic black hand composed entirely of pure demonic energy, casting a shadow that blotted out the Sea of Consciousness power!

The Demon King of the Spirit Platform Realm has finally made his move!

Faced with such an attack that was beyond their comprehension, the Sun Grade investigators and others couldn't even muster the thought of running away; they could only close their eyes in despair.

However.

Just as that giant demonic hand was about to crush everything...

"You beast, how dare you be so insolent!"

An aged voice, yet exuding an indomitable and righteous aura, emanated from a very inconspicuous thatched hut directly behind the defensive line.

"Zheng--!"

Accompanied by this sound, a dazzling white sword beam, seemingly capable of purifying all evil in the world, soared into the sky!

This sword light was not true qi, but rather formed from extremely condensed and pure spiritual power!

"Snap!"

The white sword light, with overwhelming force, directly cleaved the enormous demonic hand that blotted out the sky in two!

After enduring for several days, the human patriarch at the [Spirit Platform Realm] finally drew his sword!

"Gurgle... Old man, you've finally decided to come out."

In the Xukong, the Spirit Platform Realm Demon King, whose entire body was covered in eyeballs, slowly emerged, its dozens of vertical pupils staring intently at the aged figure below who held a white spiritual longsword.

"Today, I will devour your old bones, along with this shabby barrier!"

The clash between two top-tier cultivators at the Spirit Platform Realm instantly ignited the night sky over the entire Boundary!
