"Your Majesty, a large amount of orderly source matter has appeared outside the Cicada Wing City Fortress."
On the second floor of the pavilion.
Purple Rain pushed open the door to the secret chamber and entered the lting Furnace Divine Domain, where the Empress was perusing ancient books on the bookshelf.
"Hmm."
Lin Lei softly responded.
As the actual ruler of the North Continent, she might not leave the pavilion, but news from all directions would converge to her ears.
Not only because of the existence of [Deep Sea].
But also because the largest intelligence agency of the Five Continents, the Investigation Corps, was within her grasp.
The North Continent had established an intelligence network independent of [Deep Sea], which existed solely in a closed Spiritual Sea Domain, unaffected by the main system of [Deep Sea]... Truly important and clandestine information would be transmitted through this secret network, and the core of this vast network was the "Furnace."
Her Majesty the Empress had split off a part of the Fire God Power to ensure the ntal stability of this closed network.
Aluer is her Angel Envoy.
Each Transcendent using this Furnace network is, in fact, akin to her Angel Envoy.
She bestowed upon these individuals a certain degree of "divine authority"...
In terms of loyalty, no one could compare to these warriors in the North Continent Army.
Purple Rain continued, "Silver Fox took Gu Shen and Bai Xiu, boarding the Source Energy Boat, and went north to investigate."
Seeing that the Empress still had no reaction.
Purple Rain earnestly said, "I know you already knew this news... The ’orderly source matter’ in Cicada Wing City likely ans an invasion by Extraordinary Life; this isn’t a trivial matter, White Lizard Rust Bone has already departed to offer support."
"Yes, this is indeed a significant matter."
The Empress continued flipping through the book, softly saying, "That source matter implies... the Traveler Tribe is about to find the Five Continents."
Purple Rain’s pupils slightly contracted.
"You... don’t seem to care at all?"
When she initially received the news, she imdiately beca tense.
Whether it’s Silver Fox, Gu Shen, or Bai Xiu, they are extrely important figures.
Such top-level forces absolutely cannot be lost.
"The Traveler Tribe is not frightening."
The Empress calmly said, "A tribe without a Divine Throne... even if they find the Five Continents, so what? Can they tear through the Umbrella’s defense line? Can they crash into the giant wall?"
This question left the legion head speechless.
"Even if such a day cos, waiting for them is the wrath of the seven gods."
The Empress understatedly said, "Before the crushing force of absolute strength, how many Extraordinary Life that tribe has ans nothing... The current giant wall fears no challenge from any Extraordinary Life; even if the travelers of old were still alive, giving them an additional Divine Throne, they still couldn’t break into the Northern Continent Inland."
"Indeed."
The legion head of course believes her majesty has this power.
Still, she remains unsettled: "For so reason, my heart is disturbed; I feel like sothing big... is about to happen."
"...Aunt Wen, relax."
The Empress finally paused her book-flipping, she looked at the legion head who grew up with her and gently comforted.
"If there is, then let it happen."
...
...
The news of orderly source matter appearing in Cicada Wing City has already spread across the Five Continents.
Due to the high importance of this matter.
The major fortresses of the Northern Continent have entered a state of military readiness, especially the fortresses of the Second Army under the Northwest Frontier, preparing to mobilize troops for support...
anwhile.
The Five Continents Council convened a highest-level eting.
Each continent decided to dispatch Transcendent teams to Cicada Wing City.
Gu Shen, Bai Xiu, and Silver Fox explore northward, Changye naturally cannot stand idly by. Upon hearing the news, Gu Nanfeng imdiately led the Night Watchman northward...
Alongside them, there is ng Xizhou of Light City.
The temple turmoil has just cald; ng Xizhou originally intended to recuperate, dispatching a newly appointed elder from the temple northward, after all, they had just suffered the painful blow from the [Ice Sea Ruins], the wounds of the Cloud Ship Fleet have yet to heal; providing such large-scale northern support, now the Light Temple can’t help much.
But divine instructions from the Light God’s Seat ca from the end of the Red Lake.
Perhaps because Gu Nanfeng already set off, the Light God’s Seat personally ordered ng Xizhou to lead the team north... To her, this isn’t considered bad news.
Purely from the departure point of this directive.
The Light God’s Seat clearly wishes for the situation in the Five Continents to return to peace, thus dispatching her northward, creating a chance to et Gu Nanfeng again.
If one wishes to nd relations between the West Continent and the East Continent, only ng Xizhou can do so.
Were other elders from the temple to lead and head north, the effect wouldn’t be as good.
Just as the entire Cicada Wing City was on high alert, Wei Cheng counted the number of Source Energy Boats, preparing to cross north for support to the Silver Fox General, two figures simultaneously arrived at this throat city of the Northwest Frontier.
Two micro boats, like streaks of light, charged into the air above Cicada Wing City without any obstruction...
The military airspace system of the Northwest Frontier did not sound an alarm at all.
Because the owner permissions of these two Source Energy Boats are second only to Beizhou Empress.
"Boom! Boom!"
Two landing sounds, one extrely heavy, the other incredibly light, fell simultaneously after the Source Energy Boats hovered.
The enormously burly Rustbone stepped into the thick snow covering the ground of Chanyi City, leaving behind a deep snow pit.
On the other side, a tall, slender man in a white robe landed lightly; he was the Supre Leader of the Third Legion, White Lizard.
"What a coincidence."
Rustbone slowly straightened his back. With both hands resting on an iron sword, his massive fra strained against the chain armor wrapped around him. The plates bulged outward, as if alive, rising and falling with Rustbone’s breathing.
"...Indeed, it is quite a coincidence."
White Lizard glanced calmly at his old rival.
Years ago, during the Red Emperor War, the three great legions, including the "First Legion" opposing the Golden Ape... after a prolonged conflict, they finally claid victory. The three assisted the Empress in ascending to the throne, becoming the highest military positions in the North Continent.
After that.
The three legions were stationed separately in the northwest, north, and northeast.
The Empress deliberately separated these three "near-divine beings" because the relationship among the three supre leaders wasn’t as "close" as outsiders might think.
To reach the pinnacle.
They were all exceptionally brilliant and imnsely powerful battle geniuses.
Having survived battles like mountains of corpses and seas of blood, they earned the highest praise and coronation from the Divine Throne.
They were both comrades and rivals.
Whenever they t, they were bound to spar with all their might. Unfortunately, since they all mastered Origin Power... the strength of the three generals was evenly matched.
If they were to fight to the death, they might battle for three days and nights, shattering an entire large fortress, yet still not achieve a result.
"My Lords,"
Hearing the news, Wei Cheng hurried over. The mont he saw Rustbone and White Lizard, he felt an oppressive sensation from his Heart Lake.
"Currently, the intelligence from Chanyi City has been shared freely with the Five Continents."
With a respectful attitude, Wei Cheng slowly explained, "The Changye Gu Family has the fastest mobilization speed. In a day, Gu Nanfeng will lead the Night Watchn to Chanyi City..."
"Nanfeng has always been like this... he’s a quick-tempered one."
Hearing the na of his most proud disciple, Rustbone showed a faint smile.
"Tell him not to hurry; we will wait for him here."
Although the strength of the three generals was evenly matched.
There were always other matters to contrast... such as the strength of the legions each led or the prowess of their most prized disciples.
Now that North Continent was peaceful, the three great legions did not interfere with each other, making it impossible to determine their specific strengths.
However, regarding the disciples’ strength.
Rustbone was clearly superior to the other two, as he had nurtured Gu Nanfeng. Gu Nanfeng’s speed in achieving his title still remained an unbroken record within the three legions!
Others did not understand Rustbone’s smile.
But White Lizard did.
White Lizard shook his head and said, "A day is far too long; I cannot wait."
Upon these words, Rustbone slightly frowned.
With a smile, he asked, "Why, are you worried about Silver Fox?"
"Silver Fox’s Origin Power relates to ’space,’ and his speed in traversing the [Old World] is incredibly fast."
White Lizard said, "If the intelligence from Chanyi City is true, with an orderly source point found sixty miles beyond the umbrella’s defense line, the mission should have been completed long ago... A re sixty miles; even if Silver Fox crossed by physical ans, he should have returned to the fortress with Gu Shen and Bai Xiu."
"Are you implying that Lord Silver Fox has encountered an unexpected situation?"
Hearing this, Wei Cheng beca imdiately tense.
It had been nearly a whole day since Silver Fox left the fortress’s giant wall on a Source Energy Boat.
At first, the garrison inside Chanyi City Fortress and the higher-ups within the Second Legion did not take this mission seriously...
Silver Fox General was soone who had dabbled with the forbidden power of the origin.
Gu Shen and Bai Xiu were top elites among the titled ones.
Could these three encounter accidents while executing a mission?
Yet, with half a day passing, everyone began to worry... No one knew what happened sixty miles away.
"Encountering the unexpected doesn’t necessarily spell doom."
Rustbone said indifferently, "White Lizard is right; Silver Fox and his team must have run into so unforeseen trouble."
Wei Cheng’s heart thudded.
The implications of the [Deep Sea] intelligence couldn’t be clearer; it was highly possible that there were extraordinary beings surrounding Chanyi City’s outskirts!
If the general encountered unexpected trouble, it must be due to an encounter with extraordinary life!
"Now that [Deep Sea] has spread the intelligence, the world eting’s deliberations have been concluded, and reinforcents from the Five Continents will continue to arrive at Chanyi City..."
Rustbone looked towards Wei Cheng and said, "Little Wei, Silver Fox has entrusted the temporary garrison authority of Chanyi City to you, showing his utmost trust in you. You know what needs to be done; I needn’t say more, right?"
"Certainly..."
Wei Cheng took a deep breath and said nervously, "The Second Army has already begun forming elite units, and heavy firepower source energy weapons have been loaded, ready to deploy at any ti."
"Very good."
Rustbone nodded with satisfaction and said with a reassuring smile, "Once the first wave of reinforcents from the Five Continents arrives, the Second Army can then consider venturing beyond to explore. For now, my suggestion is for you to stay in place, rest up slightly, and wait."
He paused for a mont and looked at White Lizard.
"Intelligence from the [Old World] hasn’t returned yet; White Lizard and I will proceed ahead."
"You all wait for our news."
