Chapter 402 News about the Snake Queen, the Bear Clan, the Roc, and the Beast Tide!
Zhang Xuanchen fled not to the outer perimeter, but to the inner perimeter.
If he were to flee to the outskirts, the extensive search by dozens of third-tier and three fourth-tier demonic beasts would absolutely trap him in a desperate situation!
After all, when he is in a state of concealing his aura, he needs to avoid leaking his aura.
Therefore, his escape speed is not fast, and it is even slower than that of a typical peak Foundation Establishment cultivator.
If they flee to the outskirts, they will be caught in a massive search by a large number of monsters, which is no different from walking into a trap.
But there is a chance of survival if they escape to the inner perimeter.
Judging from the lingering aura, the group of demonic beasts could definitely tell that the person who killed the Ink Crystal Python was only a Golden Core cultivator.
Therefore, one would subconsciously assume that they would flee to the outer perimeter rather than the inner perimeter.
Even if there are any, there would be only a handful.
With the Xuanjing (mysterious mirror) concealing it, there was almost no chance of being discovered.
However, due to the danger he encountered, Zhang Xuanchen did not venture deeper into the inner perimeter.
After traveling about thirty miles into the inner perimeter, they found a hidden crevice in the rocks. With a thought, they directly entered the Myriad Spirits Ring.
"Mysterious Mirror, conceal the aura of the Myriad Spirits Ring."
……
On the other side, where the black crystal python's blood was.
Three humanoid monsters and twenty-seven third-tier monsters descended.
The woman in the lead wore a tight-fitting snakeskin outfit that perfectly accentuated her voluptuous figure.
Her green eyes stared at the pool of blood formed by the black crystal python's blood, radiating a cold light.
With its forked tongue flicking out, a sharp voice rang out: "Humans, how dare you be so insolent!"
After a few years of peaceful life, they completely forgot the terror of my demon army!
A bunch of scoundrels!
If it weren't for the Demon Lord's intervention, I would have slaughtered the entire human race!
Upon hearing this, the burly middle-aged man with muscles swollen like a ball roared to the sky, his voice booming like a bell, "Heh, Snake Queen, all you can do is talk big."
"If you truly had guts, would the Demon Lord have stopped you?"
Hearing the big man's words, Snake Princess's chest heaved violently with anger, and she sneered, "Heh, you're right."
Our snake clan naturally dared not go to the human race to wreak havoc.
Why don't Xiong Zong lead his men to join us, and we immediately wage war against the human race?
Xiong Zong's expression changed, and he was about to speak in rebuttal.
Then a handsome man in a black and gold robe shouted, "Shut up!"
"Two idiots!"
The handsome man's face was gloomy, and his eagle eyes were fixed on the two demons. "Do you think the human race is so vulnerable?"
wrong!
Big mistake!
Although our demon race is several times stronger than the human race in the South China Sea Immortal Continent, if war were to break out, our demon army would not gain the slightest advantage!
"Although the human race itself is weak, the human race has mastered skills that my demon race cannot master."
The demon race has difficulty mastering many paths, such as formations, talismans, alchemy, weapon crafting, and puppetry!
Even if one steals the cultivation method, it is difficult to master it.
Otherwise, how could my demon race coexist with the human race in this world?
"Forget it, talking to you about this is like casting pearls before swine."
The Demon Lord discussed matters with the Lord of the Azure Nether Mountains and the Lord of the Purple Cloud Mountains.
In as little as thirty years, or as long as fifty, my demon army will once again sweep across the entire South China Sea Immortal Continent!
In recent years, the human race has been slaughtering my demon race people, invading demon race territory, and seizing demon race spiritual veins!
If left unchecked, the situation will only escalate and become increasingly rampant!
This beast tide will cost humanity dearly!
At that time, you can go all out!
Although it is unknown why the Demon Lord, who was originally unwilling to start a beast tide, suddenly agreed to join forces with the Lord of the Azure Nether Mountains.
But this is clearly not something we can decide.
Now, hunt down the intruders!
Two Golden Core cultivators, plus a third-tier demon, dared to venture deep into the Dark Night Forest to kill demons; they were truly courting death!
They can't escape far now that they've concealed their presence!
Chase!"
As the voice faded, his figure soared into the air, instantly transforming into a golden roc.
Fly towards the outer perimeter!
Because of the dense forest, the roc shrunk its thousand-foot body to two or three meters, allowing it to traverse the forest at great speed.
A pair of golden eyes constantly scanned the surroundings.
Even an ant is clearly visible within your field of vision!
Seeing this, the demons no longer hesitated and split up to chase after the others.
Only the Snake Princess hesitated for a moment.
"Green Snake, White Snake, go and search the inner perimeter!"
The rest of you, follow me!
After saying that, he transformed into a streak of light and flew away towards the outer perimeter.
The two snakes, one green and one white, exchanged a glance, neither of them truly believing that the two humans would dare to escape to the inner perimeter.
Therefore, they didn't pay much attention to it.
I didn't notice anything amiss as I passed by the Ring of Souls.
Inside the ring's inner space.
After Xuanjing recounted what he had heard, Zhang Xuanchen's expression turned extremely grim.
He had never seen a beast tide.
However, there are records within the clan.
Each beast tide causes the deaths of countless cultivators and destroys countless immortal cities.
The post-war scene was a living hell.
Three hundred years ago, the son of the Lord of the Azure Nether Mountains was captured by a rogue cultivator.
Enraged, they unleashed a beast tide.
War broke out simultaneously in the Xuanwu Sea and the Tianlong Sea.
It took two years of war to successfully repel them.
In that battle, two Nascent Soul cultivators perished, hundreds of Golden Core cultivators died, over ten thousand Foundation Establishment cultivators were killed, and countless Qi Refining cultivators were killed.
If the Lord of the Azure Nether Mountains had not successfully retrieved the cub from a certain force in the Black Tortoise Sea...
The death toll will only rise.
This time, the Azure Nether Mountains, the Purple Cloud Mountains, and the Dark Night Forest are planning to launch a beast tide together, plunging the entire South Sea Immortal Continent into war.
Regardless of which side wins, the overall strength of the South China Sea Immortal Continent will regress by hundreds of years!
Why would the demon race be so determined?
Is it really because the human race is pressuring us too much?
Or perhaps there are other reasons.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xuanchen recalled the monster that Chu Zhiwei had mentioned that had emerged from the forbidden area.
Will they be there?
If those monsters belong to the demon beast race or other alien races within this world, then the problem is still within a controllable range.
If not, then things will be very serious.
Shen Zhiwei looked at Zhang Xuanchen, whose gaze was solemn, and gently comforted him:
"Xuan Chen, don't worry too much, since we knew beforehand."
That way, we can prepare in advance.
The worst-case scenario is to relocate the entire Zhang family to the Myriad Spirits Ring or that other space.
"Shuang'er, I understand, don't worry," Zhang Xuanchen replied.
Just as Luo Lingshuang said.
The worst-case scenario for the Zhang family is that they will be relocated to the Myriad Spirits Ring or that other space.
However, the Zhang family has been based in the Penglai Islands for over four hundred years.
If they really relocate, their industries, networks, and foundations will vanish into thin air.
This is something that resources cannot compensate for.
Do not relocate unless absolutely necessary.
He sighed, stood up, looked up at the sky, and said:
"Alas, under the beast tide, how can any egg remain intact?"
To survive, everything depends on your strength.
Thirty years is nothing more than a few seclusions for a Golden Core cultivator.
Hopefully, I'll encounter some extraordinary opportunities before the beast tide erupts.
"If we can all break through to the Nascent Soul stage, surviving this beast tide shouldn't be a problem."
Although the demon clan's demon sect said that the beast tide would break out in thirty to fifty years, Zhang Xuanchen dared not gamble on fifty years.
Hearing Zhang Xuanchen's words, Luo Lingshuang chuckled and said:
"Brother Chen, you're being a bit greedy."
Breakthrough to Nascent Soul stage in thirty years.
Only you would dare to think that way.
