Global Awakening: Eavesdropping on the SSS-level School Beauty's Inner Voice-Chapter 84 - 83: What’s there to worry about? I’ve already killed the Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider!
Chapter 84: Chapter 83: What’s there to worry about? I’ve already killed the Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider!
The Demon Tomb is a sealed location beneath the world.
It is a vast underground world that spans the entire planet, once a part of the Land of Calamity, filled with countless Demons, impossible to fully exterminate.
There are even a large number of Divine-level Demons.
A hundred years ago, human Awakeners made a huge sacrifice to protect the populace of the entire planet, sealing the underground world where the Demon Tomb is located and closing off the barrier between it and the Land of Calamity.
Since it is a seal, there must be entrances to the seal.
There are two entrances to the Demon Tomb, one located at the Heavenly Ghost Pass in the Beiyin Domain, and the other beneath the ground of Jiuzhou Imperial City.
Because the Demon Tomb was sealed, humanity, long oppressed and ravaged by Demons, blew the horn of counterattack, driving the remaining Demons into retreat.
The Land of Calamity, which once almost blanketed the whole surface world, was reduced to less than one-fifth of the surface world’s area.
And the sealed underground world came to be known as the Demon Tomb.
The implication is that it is the burial ground of Demons, marking the end of the days when humans were oppressed and ravaged by demons; the future surely holds the same fate for the surface world’s Demons.
A hundred years have passed, and apart from very few individuals, no one knows the history of the enormous sacrifice humanity made to create the Demon Tomb seal.
But recently, as the most tightly defended center of all of Jiuzhou, Jiuzhou Imperial City has seen frequent traces of Demons. ƒreewebɳovel.com
The appearance of Demons has caused the Awakeners of the Imperial City to be very anxious.
Some suspect that it is because someone inside has made some filthy deal with the Demons of the Land of Calamity that Demon-possessed Demons have appeared in the Imperial City.
Others speculate that the seal of the Demon Tomb has loosened, allowing the Demons within to crawl out from underground.
While the former speculation does not cause too much panic, the latter makes many who know the secrets of the Demon Tomb deeply unsettled.
For within the Demon Tomb, Divine Realm Demons are sealed!
Over the past century, their sole focus has been to combat the Demons of the Land of Calamity on the surface, never considering entering the Demon Tomb to kill the Divine Realm Demons within, all due to the fear of Divine Realm Demons.
If it weren’t for the fact that these Divine Realm Demons had collectively delved into the underground world searching for something, exploring some secret, they would not have had the chance to gather all their collected Divine Artifact power to seal the Divine Realm Demons underground.
Even so, there sleeps a Divine Realm Demon in the Land of Calamity.
This Divine Realm Demon is known as the Thunder Demon King, who awoke ten years ago.
Without a Divine-level Awakener, humanity once again faced a grave threat after the awakening of the Thunder Demon King.
Seeing that all humanity would become blood food wantonly hunted by Demons, Jiang Han emerged out of the blue several years ago, as the youngest top Awakener in Jiuzhou, staging a mortal’s battle to slay a Divine being.
It was Jiang Han who personally killed the only Divine Realm Demon in the Land of Calamity, the Thunder Demon King, thereby reversing the decline of the human Awakeners and suppressing the Land of Calamity’s potential retaliation.
She became famous because of this battle, not just in Jiuzhou but known by all humanity worldwide.
And because she made history with the human slaying of a God Creation Demon, everyone believes that she, being so young, will likely become the first God-like being in the history of human Awakeners.
Some even speculate that she has already stepped halfway into the realm of becoming a God, which is how she was able to kill the Thunder Demon King.
Early this morning, as the strongest Awakener in Jiuzhou, Jiang Han also visited the entrance to the Demon Tomb in the Imperial City due to rumors that the seal might have loosened.
If Lin Tianming were here, he would have been shocked by the scene, with the Demonic Qi even denser than that of the Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider’s nest.
Apart from Jiang Han, nearly half of Jiuzhou’s top Awakeners were present.
"Could this entrance to the Demon Tomb be so filled with dense Demonic Qi? Could the seal have already broken?"
"Everyone, stay alert and be prepared for any danger!"
Many of the top Awakeners present, veterans of countless battles with Demons in the Land of Calamity, were visiting the Demon Tomb for the first time and found themselves intimidated by the Demonic Qi here, not inferior to that of the Land of Calamity.
Jiang Han walked in front, not afraid of the frighteningly dense Demonic Qi here.
She was the first to arrive at the entrance of the Demon Tomb, closely observing the seal at the entrance.
Soon, a group of top Awakeners follow behind, also observing the Demon Tomb entrance’s seal and cautiously inquired of Jiang Han.
"Young Palace Master Jiang, have you discovered anything?"
As the next Hall Master of Thunder Hall, and with her unparalleled strength across all Jiuzhou despite her young age, these top Awakeners respectfully address her as Young Palace Master.
Jiang Han didn’t answer immediately, instead carefully sensing with her Thunder Power once again.
After a moment, she said, "The seal has indeed loosened, and a corner of this place has broken. There’s also a remnant of demonic Qi fluctuations similar to fire attribute superpower nearby. If my guess is correct, a Divine Realm demon with a fire attribute forcibly escaped through this crack in the seal."
Upon hearing Jiang Han’s analysis, all of the top Awakeners present couldn’t help but gasp.
If it really was a Divine Realm demon that had broken free, among all the top Awakeners present, only Jiang Han was qualified to fight.
"However, there’s no need to worry too much, look here, this is the mark left by the Divine Realm demon as it escaped from being trapped here. Its strength is clearly much weaker than the Divine Power at the place where the seal was broken, indicating that it paid a huge price to escape, and the strength of its fluctuations while fleeing was probably only around Level 80."
Under Jiang Han’s guidance, the top Awakeners present also discovered the traces left by the Divine Realm demon as it escaped from being trapped.
Just like Jiang Han had said, not far from where the seal had loosened, the remnants of the demonic presence were of the same origin, but the strength had already dropped to around Level 80.
Upon discovering this important clue, the top Awakeners present temporarily breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, one of the top Awakeners suggested, "If it has fallen to Level 80 after escaping, we could actually kill it before it recuperates its Divine Power!"
"That’s easier said than done. We don’t even know any specific characteristics of this Divine Realm demon, its name, its special abilities, or if it hides somewhere stealthily - it won’t be easy to find!"
"Just because it’s not easy to find, does that mean we’re not going to look for it? For the safety of the Imperial City and the whole of Jiuzhou, we must find it before it recovers!"
The top Awakeners quickly started arguing due to their disagreement.
Jiang Han did not join their discussion; instead, she crouched down and reached out to touch the fire attribute mark left by the demon.
"This fire attribute Demonic Qi... It’s very similar to the Fire Spirit Demon Qi mentioned in the books about demons recorded specifically by my Thunder Hall. There is also a presence similar to that of a spider demon nearby, along with a dark, gloomy blue Demon Flame..."
Hearing Jiang Han’s muttered analysis, those top Awakeners who were arguing immediately shut their mouths, not daring to disturb her train of thought.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Jiang Han speculated the specific identity of the demon.
"It’s a Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider, a type of Divine Realm demon that only exists in the underground world sealed within the Demon Tomb!"
Some of the top Awakeners present had also come across the Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider in some ancient records.
When Jiang Han mentioned that the Divine Realm demon that had escaped was a Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider, they couldn’t help but take a sharp breath.
"According to the records, Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spiders are extremely adept at disguise and stealth, highly skilled in Soul Attacks, and they take pleasure in hunting human souls. A hundred years ago, it was at the forefront of Divine Realm demons that slaughtered humans. How... how could such a troublesome demon have escaped?!"
"Now this is troublesome, everyone, please go back and use your own resources to find this Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider before it regains its God Realm strength, or who knows how many innocent people will become its soul fodder!"
"We can’t just focus on the Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider, let’s not forget that the seal at the entrance to the Demon Tomb has loosened!"
Listening to their discussions, Jiang Han also spoke up, "There’s no need for too much worry, the seal at the entrance to the Demon Tomb has loosened, but the Sealing Power is still strong. Right now, all we need to do is infuse all our power into the Sealing Array, and that should temporarily mend the loss of power in that seal."
With that comment from Jiang Han, the top Awakeners looked at each other and gradually agreed with her suggestion to jointly infuse sufficient power into the Sealing Array for repairs.
Under the collective power infusion led by Jiang Han and the other top Awakeners, the loosened seal was also repaired, temporarily sealing off the leakage of demonic Qi.
But this also left a fine crack in the sealing array at the entrance of the Demon Tomb, only serving as a temporary solution.
Unable to think of any better solutions for now, they could only proceed in this manner.
"Right now, we need to find that escaped Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider first. If any of you have any news, remember to contact me immediately!"
After communicating with the group of top Awakeners and arranging for people from the Imperial City side to guard the Demon Tomb all day, so they could react immediately if any accidents happened again.
Having arranged all this, Jiang Han also left the entrance to the Demon Tomb.
She planned to return to Thunder Hall once more, to report to the Thunder Hall Master and the other higher-ups about what she had seen and heard at the entrance to the Demon Tomb today.
On her way back to Thunder Hall, thinking of the escaped Divine Realm demon, Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider, Jiang Han couldn’t help but worry about Lin Tianming.
She also took out her phone and sent a voice message to Lin Tianming.
"Hey kid, stay put in the Great Emperor Academy for the next three days! A Divine Realm demon, the Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider, has recently escaped from the Demon Tomb in the Imperial City. Killing top Awakeners is like playing for it, so don’t go running around and get caught by it!"
Receiving Jiang Han’s voice message early in the morning, just as he was about to go downstairs and explore the Ice and Snow Secret Realm with Ye Qingxue, Lin Tianming was stunned.
After a moment, the corners of Lin Tianming’s mouth turned up slightly as he replied with a message to Teacher Jiang Han.
"Okay, I will behave and stay in the Great Emperor Academy until you return, Teacher Jiang Han!"
As if!
The Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider that Teacher Jiang Han was worried about had been electrocuted by him; he didn’t need to worry about the threat of the Ghost-faced Fire Spirit Spider at all.
Putting his phone away, Lin Tianming cheerfully went to find his girlfriend, Ye Qingxue.
The fortunes of the Ice and Snow Secret Realm awaited him, Lin Tianming!
