377: Chapter 382: Attacking the Divine City 377: Chapter 382: Attacking the Divine City The bells of Purple Mountain rang, their Bell Waves traversing the void as ancient creatures emerged, shaking the Divine City.
ROAR…
An inexplicable being roared, shaking heaven and earth, dispersing the clouds in the sky and causing the Divine City to tremble.
No one’s expression remained unchanged; many souls shivered—what kind of terrifying creatures had emerged?
There was definitely more than one.
Cries of fear arose from all directions of the Divine City, filled with terror.
Even from afar, one could sense that terrifying aura.
What did the Human Race powerhouses encounter in Purple Mountain to draw out so many ancient creatures?
Everyone was uneasy and fearful.
BOOM!
A heaven-shattering shockwave emanated from due north, and killing intent soared skyward.
There, a Peacock King battled an ancient creature, sweeping away the surrounding clouds and causing the firmament to tremble violently.
What terrifying creatures have e?
Many faces turned pale; Saint Master-level figures had all taken action, facing formidable enemies.
The gravity of the situation was evident.
BUZZ!
The void trembled.
From due west surged a mass of demonic clouds, vast and boundless, of unknown extent, pressing down upon the Divine City with a chilling aura.
BOOM!
From within the black clouds, a massive claw extended, covered in green scales like a small mountain.
It grasped downward.
PUFF!
People watched helplessly as a dozen renowned elders in that direction were instantly crushed, reduced to a mist of blood, their forms and spirits annihilated.
What creature is that?
How gigantic is it?!
All who witnessed this scene were struck with horror, their jaws dropped, and their bodies became drenched in cold sweat.
Who could possibly oppose such a powerful being?
Even a Peacock King might struggle; whether they could even withstand it was another matter entirely!
BOOM!
The massive claw descended again.
No one could halt it, as dozens of experts were shattered in mid-air, instantly transformed into bloodied mush.
TWANG TWANG TWANG…
From the south came the sound of ancient melodies.
It was not at all soft; the killing intent was like raging waves, and the musical tones were like the ringing of swords, sharp and clear.
In a white cloud, a delicate woman was faintly visible, seated high above the Nine Heavens, playing an ancient instrument akin to a zither.
Clearly visible, enormous beams of light shot down.
Each note from the zither was like a terrifying wave, destroying everything and sweeping across the land.
This was a fearful sound of slaughter; it sounded like ten thousand warhorses galloping.
Endless killing intent swept down, and countless experts were pierced through.
PUFF!
PUFF!
PUFF!…
One by one, corpses fell from the sky, torn asunder amidst the boundless killing aura.
Too terrifying!
This is a humanoid figure!
No one dares approach!
People were shocked to find the south pletely cleared.
No one else dared to approach and engage, as the sound of the ancient zither swept across the southern sky.
BOOM!
Purple Qi from the East surged forth like purple magma, blanketing the eastern sky as a terrifying aura poured down from within.
BANG!
At that moment, a massive purple hand descended, obscuring the sky like a purple mountain crashing down, instantly grinding a palace plex to dust.
AH…
Many met untimely deaths, their shrieks rising and falling.
Numerous people soared skyward attempting to flee the area, yet they still couldn’t escape.
The massive purple hand swept past, and those people, like paper dolls, were all torn apart, being bloodied mush.
A Peacock King rushed forward!
People were astonished to discover the Jiang Family Sacred Master and the Ji Family Sacred Master charging together into the purple cloud.
The purple qi was battered until it roiled like boiling water.
The firmament, like a scroll, rustled loudly and trembled violently, as if it might be torn apart or shattered at any moment.
Unparalleled powerhouses attacked the Divine City from all directions, and even more ancient creatures emerged from within the city itself, waging war against the Human Race cultivators.
All the major Peacock Kings took action; no one could remain a bystander.
The whole world trembled.
It was a terrible battle, with countless lives lost.
Purple Mountain!
These creatures crossed the void from Purple Mountain!
They’re too horrifying!
Terror gripped everyone’s heart.
They wished to flee the Divine City, yet dared not act rashly.
Being targeted by such creatures would mean certain death.
“Opening Purple Mountain was equivalent to opening a Demon Box, releasing supreme evil demons—how will this end?” “Actually, you can’t blame those creatures.
The Sacred Lands disturbed them, awakening them from their slumber and thereby hastening the depletion of their lifespan, so naturally they pursued them to the Divine City.” “This is a great calamity.
How it will end is uncertain…” Ye Fan was startled.
Ancient creatures have emerged from Purple Mountain.
Someone must have ventured into its deepest parts and alarmed their king.
Has the legacy of the Wushi Emperor been obtained?
Although Big Black was sure no one could obtain it, I still feel a little uneasy.
Has Jiang Taixu been rescued?
This is a matter I greatly care about.
“The monkey!
That monkey has appeared again!” someone in the Stone Garden exclaimed, pointing to the distant horizon.
Sure enough, the Fighting Saint Ape somersaulted high into the sky, landing on a cloud.
Wielding a Supreme Evil Weapon, its Eyes of Golden Flame scanned the area as it arrived above the Divine City, looking puzzled and uncertain.
TWANG TWANG TWANG…
The Divine City was in crisis.
The south was the most severely affected; the slender woman in the clouds played her zither, its sound extremely lethal, and no one dared approach.
BOOM!
Suddenly, a crimson light shot skyward, twisting towards the woman.
An endless divine flame, taking the form of a Divine Phoenix, then soared into the high heavens.
At this moment, everyone in the Divine City couldn’t help but tremble.
It was a pressure originating from their very souls, causing people to involuntarily bow and kneel.
“Extreme Dao Weapon!” “It’s the Hengyu Furnace of the Jiang Family!” “That’s right!
It’s a Divine Furnace forged from Phoenix Blood Red Gold, capable of shattering the heavens and drying up the oceans!” Many cultivators exclaimed, all revealing expressions of shock.
Everyone was trembling and wanted to bow down; it was pletely involuntary, as if they were facing a god.
The zither music ceased.
The woman in the clouds transformed into a streak of Divine Light and shot towards the horizon, fleeing without daring to meet the attack.
“Is this true?
They’re using peak weapons?!” Many older figures were alarmed.
“That was merely a deterrent.
The true Extreme Dao Power wasn’t actually unleashed,” someone responded.
“What?
Such terrifying divine power appeared without it actually being unleashed?!” Numerous cultivators were stunned.
BOOM!
Suddenly, a brilliant light surged, and overwhelming divine power erupted.
People trembled again, almost unable to speak.
To the east, the purple clouds retreated swiftly like a receding tide, moving far from the Divine City and stopping at the horizon.
Many people’s hearts pounded violently, and they nearly collapsed to the ground, barely able to remain standing.
“That’s the Ji Family’s—Void Mirror!” “That’s right!
Someone is brandishing the Void Mirror to intimidate the ancient creatures!” Even without unleashing Extreme Dao Power, just the pressure was already this terrifying and frightening.
People couldn’t imagine what a dreadful scene it would be if its power were truly unleashed.
“It could definitely pierce the heavens and dry up the oceans!” “If there was enough divine energy to wield peak weapons, they could sweep away any power in the world.
These are the weapons forged by the Great Emperors of old; their divine might is evident.” Ye Fan also felt a chill.
He thought of the Netherworld God Palace on the Ice Field; an Ancient Sacred Land with seventy to eighty thousand years of history had been wiped clean by the Invincible Divine King of the Jiang Family wielding the Hengyu Furnace.
Previously, he had been dubious, but now it seemed almost certain.
The weapons of the Great Emperors of old were too frightening.
BOOM!
Another earth-shattering wave surged up.
Black light spilled everywhere, dragon roars echoed throughout the heavens, and the supreme pressure threatened to shatter this part of the world.
“A sacred weapon cast from Dragon Pattern Black Gold—the Dragon Cauldron!” “The world’s only Extreme Dao Weapon not crafted by a Great Emperor.” People were astonished and swayed precariously; under this pressure, even the elder figures were barely able to withstand it.
Within the Divine City, the various Sacred Lands wielded the three peak weapons of the Eastern Wastelands, intimidating the terrifying ancient creatures.
The world finally fell silent.
The invading ancient creatures retreated to the horizon, no longer daring to approach.
The two sides confronted each other.
“Why not unleash the peak weapons and kill them all, instead of merely intimidating them?” “You speak lightly.
If that were done, the earth might be stained with blood, and a dark era could descend upon the Eastern Wastelands.” Suddenly, everyone fell silent.
An indescribable oppression weighed on their hearts, almost suffocating them, and numerous cultivators could say nothing more.
In the sky, ancient creatures gathered and clouds churned.
A massive block of Divine Source appeared; within it was a humanoid creature.
Although it had not broken out of the Source, it emitted a terrifying spiritual pressure.
In the distance, the Fighting Saint Ape, its fur radiating golden light, held a Supreme Evil Weapon, its Eyes of Golden Flame shimmering.
With a somersault, it vanished.
Within the Divine City, several Peacock Kings soared into the sky, bearing peak weapons, to confront them high above.
Powerful spiritual waves surged like tides, sweeping across the sky.
The two sides seemed to be municating.
Finally, a terrifying voice echoed in everyone’s heart, saying, “Do not disturb our tranquility again!” In the sky, a massive black hole appeared.
They crossed the void and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
“So terrifying!
These beings are so powerful!
To be their enemy would simply be a nightmare!” “Luckily, they left!” Everyone was filled with lingering fear and let out a long sigh of relief.
Above the Divine City, the clouds dissipated and sunlight rained down.
Everything was over; all that had just transpired felt like a dream.
Ye Fan was deeply shaken.
The block of Divine Source he had just seen looked somewhat familiar.
Upon careful recollection, he had a sudden realization.
In the underground mines leading to Purple Mountain, he had seen a mural depicting the Wushi Emperor suppressing a Female Ancient King.
That block of Divine Source just now…
it looked very much like the one in the mural!
The more he thought, the more shocked he became.
It wasn’t just similar; it had to be exactly the same!
Was it possible the woman from over a hundred thousand years ago, whom the Great Emperor had supposedly killed, was still alive in this world?
Suddenly, many questions arose in him, and he felt a chill.
Nine great dragon veins encircled and protected Purple Mountain.
Such an Earth Formation was unique in all the Eastern Wastelands, even more terrifying than the Myriad Dragon Nest.
Each of these nine great dragon veins contained a supreme Divine Source, and each was gestating an ancient creature on the same level as the terrifying existence within that block of Divine Source he had just witnessed.
It’s hard to imagine what kind of place the center of Purple Mountain truly is.
Having studied the Heavenly Source Book, I gradually prehended that this was a supreme and critical land, representing the ‘nine extremes’ of the world, a place that enpassed the ultimate mysteries of worldly change and transformation.
I had only managed to decipher the words ‘change born from extremity,’ but as for how this ‘change’ was meant to occur, it remained unfathomable, beyond my prehension.
Before the Ancient times, what kind of supreme existence took control of Purple Mountain, requiring the fearsome creatures from the nine great dragon veins to guard it?
What did the Wushi Emperor do after entering?
I couldn’t fathom it.
That phrase, ‘exhausting the mysteries of worldly change and transformation’—how was this ‘change’ ultimately supposed to manifest?
“They really entered Purple Mountain and successfully retreated!
What did the Sacred Lands ultimately gain?” “The cultivators from the Central States and the Eastern Wastelands collectively utilized five peak weapons.
With such a successful expedition into and out of Purple Mountain, they must surely have obtained some supreme inheritance.” “Is Divine King Jiang Taixu still alive?
Was he rescued?” …
The Divine City was in an uproar; everyone was discussing these events.
On this day, the entire city was in turmoil, and all sorts of rumors began to circulate.
Some said the Sacred Lands had obtained the secrets of the ancient Great Emperors and had seen inscriptions left by the Wushi Emperor.
Others said the people from the Central States had seen the remains of the Wushi Emperor, which, after over a hundred thousand years, remained incorruptible and still appeared lifelike.
Still others claimed that the Wushi Emperor had never died at all; he was right there inside Purple Mountain, seated upon a Dao Platform…
