Upheaval in the Dead Sea

This attack killed five Golden Core cultivators and two third-tier Demon Beast. The number of Foundation Establishment and lesser demons was not counted. Overall, the Demon Beast suffered greater casualties, but the human race lost more Golden Core cultivators.

The Sky-Soaring Eagle and the white peacock, heavily wounded, escaped through the gap.

Shen Ge raised his hand and summoned back his flying swords. There were forty-two in total, five of which were destroyed by the storm and three were taken by the two Demon Beast.

Shen Ge was only focused on escaping, otherwise, how could he have let those two Demon Beast steal his flying sword?

However, this was not the biggest loss. Shen Ge's biggest loss was that the Mountain and River Cauldron was destroyed, blown into a sieve by the storm, and riddled with holes of all sizes.

But now is not the time to feel sorry for them. This attack was like a signal, and all the third-tier Demon Beast on the battlefield abandoned their enemies and retreated to that gap. Shen Ge immediately set off to intercept them.

He activated his sword formation, blocking the path of the Demon Beast with an aura of invincibility.

But Shen Ge wasn't confident he could take on ten at once, so he chose three Demon Beast to intercept him, all of them Late Third Tier: a jade crab, a dragon claw, and a Flame Bird.

Once the pursuers understood Shen Ge's intentions, they released the powerful Demon Beast and surrounded the weaker ones.

After all, it's better to cut off an arm than to injure a finger. Killing more third-tier Demon Beast this time, even if they are weaker, will make things much easier for them later.

A chaotic battle ensued, and in the end, the Demon Beast fled, leaving behind the corpses of five third-tier Demon Beast. On the human side, three more Early Golden Core Stage experts died.

On the other side of the South Sea Gate battlefield, the situation was far from optimistic. The human race was suffering repeated defeats and was on the verge of being swept into the mortal sea by the Demon Beast.

"Is the Tianxuan Sect eating shit? Why the hell haven't they arrived yet! If we can't hold out here, they won't have an easy time either! Can't they even figure that out?!"

Tianji Pavilion looked at his puppet, which had just been destroyed by Demon Beast, and cursed through gritted teeth. At the same time, he took out a swarm of spirit insects and rushed forward.

"Just received news that Tianxuan Sect can't come. There's trouble at the Dead Sea, and it might be even more terrifying than this Demon Beast tide! They've already requested reinforcements from Kaiyang and Yuheng. Hold on for a few more days, and our reinforcements will arrive soon."

I don't know how those things in the Dead Sea knew about the chaos outside, and they all seemed to have chosen this moment to strike at the same time.

On the shore of the Dead Sea, Venerable Tianxuan looked at the churning black mist with a grim expression. Within that mist, countless eerie gazes were fixed on him and the outside world.

"Junior brother, what should we do?" An elderly man with white hair asked Venerable Tianxuan with a gloomy face, "Yaoqiong alone was troublesome enough before, but now so many have gathered, I'm afraid we..."

Venerable Tianxuan remained silent, but the chill emanating from his body grew stronger. He knew, of course, that they couldn't stop these things on their own, but they had no way out!

"Junior brother, you should make plans as soon as possible." The old man sighed and said, "The situation is fraught with uncertainty right now. The entire Luo Heaven Sea is like a small sailboat on a boundless sea, which could sink at any moment."

"Alright, Senior Brother, stop talking." Venerable Tianxuan said impatiently, "So what if it's a small sailboat? We're all just nails on the ship. If the ship sinks, none of us can escape."

"Yes, no one can escape." The old man's eyes turned cold, and a strong killing intent emanated from him. "It's all that witch's fault. If she hadn't destroyed that teleportation array, we wouldn't be without a way out!"

"What's the point of saying all this now?" Venerable Tianxuan looked at the Dead Sea was churning with black mist, and said grimly, "Since the Great Xia Dynasty is on the verge of collapse, we must hold it up at all costs and never let it fall!"

"Senior brother, junior brother, follow me and activate the Tianxuan Sword! Let's strike first!"

"If all else fails, we can just abandon Tianxuan Island and go to Kaiyang Island."

"It's time to give it our all."

The young-looking Nascent Soul Early Stage chuckled and then channeled all his spiritual energy into the rusty flying sword that Venerable Tianxuan had taken out. The other two did the same.

In an instant, the flying sword emitted a Sword Qi, and with just that one Sword Qi, the sea beneath the dark clouds in the sky was simultaneously cleaved in two!

At this moment, the black mist at the edge of the Dead Sea began to churn violently and was visibly fading. Clearly, the power emanating from this sword strike had frightened the strange creatures within.

"Run?" Venerable Tianxuan sneered, "If you know you're scared, then stay inside obediently. Why come out looking for trouble!"

The next moment, the entire world lit up, and a dazzling sword light fell from the horizon, as if it were about to cleave the world in two.

In the blink of an eye, the black mist surrounding the entire Dead Sea was cleared away, and the strange creatures were killed by the sword light before they could even scream.

This sword light has far surpassed the strength of the Nascent Soul Realm, and may even have surpassed the Spirit Severing Realm!

Venerable Tianxuan, his face pale, looked at the Dead Sea and gasped, "Come on, those of you who aren't afraid of death, come out!"

The black mist in the depths slowly spread outwards. Suddenly, a section of the ship's bow burst out of the black mist, and even the wrecked hull broke free of it.

The ship drifted outwards at a leisurely pace, seemingly... quite casually.

Venerable Tianxuan's eyes narrowed as he stared intently at the wrecked ship, bloodshot veins appearing in his eyes.

"Pop~"

With a bursting sound of bubbles, the wrecked ship completely passed through the Dead Sea and entered the outside world.

Suddenly, the sky became stormy, with dark clouds gathering in this direction and thunder rumbling continuously within them.

But the wrecked ship didn't care at all, and just kept moving forward slowly, leaving a trail of black smoke in its wake.

And so, until it left the encirclement of the Tianxuan Sect, no one dared to make a move.

At this moment, a torrential downpour began, but the lightning that roared through the clouds did not fall for a long time. This caused the three Nascent Soul cultivators of the Tianxuan Sect to change their expressions completely, because that thing may have already transcended the realm of the bizarre!

Venerable Tianxuan watched the wrecked ship drift further and further away, a cold sweat broke out on his face.

"Has she... she... come back to life? Why doesn't Heaven punish her with lightning?"

"The world is changing, the world is really changing! That thing is getting stronger and stronger, what kind of monster has it turned into?!" the young Nascent Soul murmured, his voice trembling.

"Oh no! That thing is heading towards our sect! Quickly, tell the disciples to pack their things and leave!"

Looking at the wrecked ship, Venerable Tianxuan took out Sound Transmission Jade Slip and sent a message to Venerable Yaoguang.

"You old scoundrel Yaoguang, your ancestor has come back to life! Come and do something about it!"
