After the Breakup I Took It Easy and Became Invincible Chapter 156 : Chapter 156

Chapter 156. The Ruins of the Evil God dusa

Huaxia Headquarters.

Ring, ring, ring—

The office phone began to ring.

“Commander-in-Chief! One minute ago, our satellites detected energy fluctuations from a mythological ruin in the Eastern Great Rift Valley in East China. It is suspected to be connected to dusa, the Evil God from Greek mythology. The danger level is estimated at B-rank.”

The Minister of Huaxia’s Mystical Ruins Detection Departnt spoke in an extrely grave tone.

When Commander-in-Chief Hong Wu heard that, his brows drew together. “Investigate all nearby personnel imdiately. Notify everyone to evacuate the Eastern Great Rift Valley at once, and send the Divine Battle Division to deal with it.”

A mythological ruin with a B-rank danger level was not sothing even a Martial God would dare enter recklessly. Only after obtaining a full understanding of the situation could anyone go in.

The Evil God dusa belonged to the level of a god. At that level, only Laws could contend against her.

“Understood, Commander-in-Chief.” The voice on the other end paused briefly before speaking again. “Commander-in-Chief, I have already inford the Divine Battle Division and sent an evacuation notice to the border defenses of Rift Valley Town.”

“However... one of the recruit wilderness mission teams from the East China First Military District is currently in the Great Rift Valley. They have most likely already begun carrying out their mission.”

Hong Wu’s eyes sharpened. “Give the personnel information.”

“First Group of Formation One from the First Military District: Jiang Yichen, Su Linyu...”

!

Hong Wu froze for a mont, then slowly relaxed. “It’s fine. Jiang Yichen should be able to handle it. Just have the Divine Battle Division go over and support him.”

An Eighth-Realm Martial Emperor with space-type abilities, and quite possibly a Divine Contract Holder as well, possessing incomparably powerful Law Power... dealing with the Evil God dusa should not be a problem for him.

“Ah? Commander-in-Chief, but they’re just recruits, and they’re in the core region of the Great Rift Valley. If we don’t send a Martial God, I’m afraid their lives—”

“Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.” Hong Wu’s gaze remained calm as he hung up.

Anyone capable of defeating the Divine Battle Division, the force he had always been proud of, could not possibly be asured by the standards of an ordinary recruit.

Just as he was about to set the phone down, it rang again.

Hm?

Hong Wu paused, frowned, and answered it.

“The person in charge of the East China General Military District, Yan Yunyue, reported to the Commander-in-Chief: a beast tide has suddenly erupted in the Eastern Great Rift Valley in East China. It is visually estimated to be S-rank, but the beast tide has already drawn the attention of the Demonic Beasts near the border, and the threat level may rise even further.”

“The East China border has already entered combat readiness. We request support from headquarters. We request support from headquarters!”

S-rank!

Hong Wu shot to his feet so abruptly that his office chair slamd into the wall behind him with a loud bang.

An S-rank beast tide ant at least three peak Eighth-Rank Demonic Beasts, with the total number of Demonic Beasts reaching over a hundred thousand.

And once a large-scale beast tide erupted, it would imdiately draw the attention of the Demonic Beasts beyond the border, causing them to join the assault on the border as well.

At that point, the number of Demonic Beasts could multiply several tis over.

Hong Wu’s expression turned grave in an instant. The Eastern Great Rift Valley again. This was bad.

Jiang Yichen and the others, who were out carrying out their mission, were probably in mortal danger.

Three peak Eighth-Rank Demonic Beasts and hundreds of thousands of Demonic Beasts—this was sothing even a Martial God could not handle, let alone Jiang Yichen, who was only at the Eighth Realm.

Such an outstanding seedling absolutely could not be allowed to perish there.

“Headquarters has received the report. I will dispatch reinforcents imdiately. Soldiers of East China, hold the line.”

After hanging up, Hong Wu imdiately contacted the three idle Martial Gods from the Su, Tang, and Chu families and ordered them to head to the Eastern Great Rift Valley.

The mont the three of them heard that their children were all trapped in the Eastern Great Rift Valley and in grave danger, they agreed without hesitation.

Only then did Hong Wu let out a breath of relief and notify the other four major battle divisions to head to East China as reinforcents.

What puzzled him, however, was that according to the historical records of beast tides in the Eastern Great Rift Valley, even a B-rank beast tide had only appeared once there. It had always been considered a relatively stable region.

So how had an S-rank beast tide suddenly erupted? And the satellites had not detected it in advance, which made it even stranger.

Could it be because the ruins of the Evil God dusa had appeared, stirring up the beast tide as a result?

Hong Wu frowned deeply. After thinking for a while, he shook his head.

For now, resolving East China’s crisis was the top priority. As for the cause behind the beast tide, that could be investigated afterward.

He opened the box beside him and ran his hand over a silver spear that radiated a cold gleam. “Old friend, it’s been many years since you last saw action. It’s ti for you to taste blood again.”

Hong Wu picked up the spear and walked out of the office.

...

Eastern Great Rift Valley, Snakefolk Valley Cave.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

A splitting sound ca from the dim cave. Outside, Feng Xiazi, Chu Xingchen, and Jiang Feng all turned toward the interior at the sa ti.

“This isn’t right. This energy doesn’t feel like sothing the Snakefolk could release.”

Feng Xiazi, who had dealt with the Snakefolk for half his life, imdiately sensed that sothing was wrong.

“They’ve run into danger. We need to get in there and support them now.”

Feng Xiazi issued the order decisively and charged straight into the cave.

Chu Xingchen and Jiang Feng followed after him, and the three of them ran all the way to the altar in the depths of the cave.

When Feng Xiazi saw that Jiang Yichen and the other two were still standing there unhard, he let out a sigh of relief.

“What’s going on with this statue?”

Feng Xiazi looked at the petrified statue covered in cracks and asked.

Jiang Yichen’s gaze remained calm. “This should be a ruin. That petrified statue is about to revive.”

A ruin!?

When Feng Xiazi and the others heard that, their expressions changed drastically.

No martial artist in all of Huaxia was unaware of how dangerous ruins were.

Back then, the Fengshan Ruins of Mount Tai had caused a Martial God of the Su family to lose a leg. Everyone knew about it.

If even a Martial God had suffered like that in a ruin, then what chance did they have?

“Retreat imdiately! Move, now! I’ll cover the rear!”

Feng Xiazi roared at the five of them. Black light began to spread from the smoking pipe in his hand.

Then he tore off the black eyepatch over his left eye, revealing a pitch-black pupil that radiated the aura of death.

“Death Gaze!”

A faint ray of light landed on the petrified statue, and the speed at which it cracked visibly slowed.

Jiang Yichen was slightly startled. So Feng Xiazi’s eye was actually his martial talent.

Under Jiang Yichen’s powerful perception, he could clearly sense that within the range of Feng Xiazi’s gaze, both space and ti had undergone subtle changes.

“Go! Now! That’s an order!”

Feng Xiazi clenched his teeth and let out a low roar. It was obvious that keeping his gaze fixed on the statue was placing enormous pressure on him.

Su Linyu also looked worried. “Brother Yichen, let’s go. A ruin isn’t sothing we can deal with.”

She understood that better than anyone. Her father had been injured because of one.

She did not want Brother Yichen to suffer even the slightest harm, nor would she allow it.

“But Sentry Captain Feng...” Tang Long looked conflicted, yet his own strength was lacking.

What were they supposed to do now?

Chu Xingchen also wore a troubled expression.

Jiang Feng, however, grabbed his arm directly. “Why are you just standing there? Move!”

“I...”

Chu Xingchen had just started to say sothing when the right eye of the petrified statue suddenly shot out a streak of purple-black aurora that swept across Sentry Captain Feng’s body.

In the next second, Sentry Captain Feng lowered his head slightly, and his body began to petrify.

Feng Xiazi stiffly turned his head and spoke in a low voice. “Run.”

As soon as he said that, he completely turned into a petrified statue.

But before anyone could even react in horror, another aurora shot from the statue’s left eye.

Chu Xingchen’s whole body stiffened. It felt as though he had been locked under the gaze of so terrifying creature, and he could only watch helplessly as that aurora rapidly expanded in his pupils.

Sentry Captain Feng had said before that being petrified was the sa as being sentenced to death...

“Get out of the way, man!”

At that mont, Jiang Feng shoved Chu Xingchen aside. He himself was struck by the aurora instead.

Chu Xingchen, who had fallen to the ground, froze as he looked at Jiang Feng, the one who had pushed him away. His eyes trembled slightly.

“Man, without my permission, you don’t even have the right to die.”

Jiang Feng looked at his petrifying hands, and a complicated look surfaced in his eyes. He had sched against so many people.

Yet in the end, he died by his own hand. He did not know whether that was tragic or fortunate.

A self-mocking smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Feng’s lips, and then he completely turned into a petrified statue.

Chu Xingchen clenched his fists. The Dustcrossing Sword left its sheath, and he charged at the dusa statue without the slightest hesitation.

Jiang Yichen could not help shaking his head. Too reckless.

Still... Jiang Feng had actually thrown himself into danger to save Chu Xingchen. That left him a little puzzled.

Was this really the Jiang Feng from his previous life?

“Old Chu, what are you doing? If you get petrified, you’ll die!” Tang Long imdiately raised his golden shield and rushed after him.

Su Linyu held the Vermilion Feather Fan and unleashed Radiant Fla.

But it changed nothing. The instant Chu Xingchen rushed up to the dusa statue, he was petrified by the aurora it released and fell to the ground.

Su Linyu and Tang Long’s hearts jolted. Looking at the petrified Chu Xingchen, their eyes trembled, and tears welled up in them.

Jiang Yichen rely shook his head slightly. What terrible coordination.

“All right, all right. Linyu, apply this liquid to their bodies. It can remove the petrification.”

“As for that thing, I’ll deal with it myself.”

Jiang Yichen placed the petrification-removal liquid in Su Linyu’s hand and slowly walked toward the dusa statue.

Remove the petrification?

Huh?

Su Linyu and Tang Long both froze. Hadn’t Sentry Captain Feng said that once soone was petrified, there was no way in all of Huaxia to undo it?

Then where did this thing co from?
