Global Cultivation: First-time Top-up for the Ultimate Destiny Treasure-Chapter 289: Urgent Report of the Northern Region, the Entire Territory Has Fallen
In the city lord's mansion of Central Plain City, a large group of people had already gathered in the conference hall. At a glance, there were about 20 to 30 of them.
All of these people were at the late stage of the foundation establishment stage or above.
Among them, there were those who were well known, those who were unknown, those who cultivated alone, or those who lived in seclusion. Many of them had been informed by Ji Tongtian.
Now, they were still talking about the same thing. That was, the betst Tide in the northern region of the Central Plains!
"Hey brother, I heard that there was a beast tide in the northern region. Is this true?"
A reclusive lone cultivator asked doubtfully. He did not have as many channels of information as the aristocratic families or famous cultivators.
"Are you talking nonsense? Otherwise, why do you think City Lord Ji issued a notice to summon us up? Is it for fun?"
"Tsk, brother, your words are a bit harsh?"
"What's wrong with being harsh? I asked you what's wrong with being harsh?"
Sure enough, it was not easy to manage a large crowd. It had only been a short while, but it already felt like a fight was about to break out.
However, Ji Tongtian came later.
Cough!
Ji Tongtian coughed lightly to stop the fight that was about to break out among the cultivators.
"City Lord Ji, long time no see."
"City Lord Ji."
...
Many cultivators who knew Ji Tongtian greeted him one after another, and even the two cultivators who were quarreling stopped arguing.
It seemed that Ji Tongtian's position as the city lord was still very high in the hearts of these itinerant cultivators.
When Ji Tongtian entered the meeting hall, a monk asked, "Lord Ji, are you really here to deal with the beast tide in the north?"
Heard was asked, Jitongtian Leng Leng Leng, just want to answer, the door appeared a figure, accompanied by a thick voice came in, "let me explain it to you."
The three cultivators at the advanced stage of the foundation establishment stage looked at the figure at the door in surprise.
"The Xu Family! It's that old fellow, Xu Que! Why is he here?"
"Even the aristocratic families have sent people?"
"Tsk."
"It seems things are not going well this time..."
Seeing Xu Que, many cultivators frowned as if they had smelled something bad.
After Xu Que entered the conference hall, he started to explain to the late-stage foundation establishment cultivators.
During the process of explaining, the various aristocratic families also started to send people over. They were so shocked that they were all wondering what had happened that they needed to alert these big shots.
Finally, Old Master Nie brought Su Yi to the stage.
Seeing that all the cultivators in the hall were at the late-stage foundation establishment, Su Yi was a little surprised. He did not expect there would be so many late-stage foundation establishment cultivators in the great desolate.
It must be known that it was not easy for these unaffiliated cultivators to reach the late stage of the foundation establishment realm.
After Old Master Nie entered the hall to inspect the place, he found that the few people from before were all present.
Li Xuande, Lin Yan, Zhao Xuening's great-uncle were all here. In short, other than the deceased Qian family elder, Tang Shang, and Xuan Mingzi, who had gone missing, all of the aristocratic families who had entered the ancient ruins were present.
Since these people from the aristocratic families who had been famous for a long time were here, these freelance martial artists did not dare to act rashly. It was better to see what these people from the aristocratic families would say.
"Everyone, I believe that everyone is here today because of the announcement made by City Lord Ji, right?"
Old Master Nie looked at the crowd and said seriously. A faint invisible aura spread out, causing people to unconsciously become serious.
Hearing this, everyone nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case.
Then, Old Master Nie described how the beast tide happened in the northern region, and how their strength was extraordinary, and how there were many of them.
However, Old Master Nie did not tell them about the Venerable Lone Dragon of the demon race.
He did not want these unaffiliated cultivators to know that there was an existence that broke through common sense and was driving the beast tide.
Just as elder Nie was about to arouse the interest of these unaffiliated cultivators, Ji Tongtian's expression suddenly changed as he exclaimed in shock.
"What!!"
This voice was like a clap of thunder, causing the entire conference hall to fall into silence. Everyone was so shocked that they all looked at Ji Tongtian.
At this moment, Ji Tongtian also had a look of disbelief on his face as he stood there in a daze.
At this moment, elder Nie walked forward and asked, "City Lord Ji, what made you so anxious?"
Hearing this, Ji Tongtian stiffly turned his head to look at elder nie. His gaze was a little dull as he muttered in disbelief.
"North Barren City has fallen!"
...
North Barren City, as the only human city in the northern region, was facing a great disaster at this moment.
At the highest point of the entire city, on top of a towering building, a human figure with two horns on his head was lying on top. He held a wine gourd in his hand and drank a few mouthfuls of wine from time to time as he muttered.
"Awesome, the human's wine is still the best."
This human figure was the Venerable Lone Dragon who came out of the ancient ruins.
The Lone Dragon's lips curled up into a strange smile as he looked towards the center of the Central Plains.
He could feel that that direction was the territory of the human race, and also the most important place in the entire great desolate region.
As long as he conquered that place, it would be just a matter of time before the great desolate region turned into a demon region!
The Venerable Lone Dragon used his pair of inhuman eyes to look down at the North Barren City below him.
The North Barren City was filled with the smoke of gunpowder, the rumbling of spells, the sound of houses collapsing, and the screams of women.
The North Barren City, which was originally not very peaceful, was now in a mess. A large number of demon beasts were wreaking havoc in the city, roaring.
When these demon beasts saw the human cultivators, it was as if they had been injected with stimulants. They continued to hunt down and gnaw at the human cultivators.
In the face of despair, the bad nature of the humans in North Barren City was revealed.
In a small alley, a group of cultivators were shivering as they hid in a hidden corner, praying that they would not be discovered by the demon beasts.
However, at this time, a child in the arms of a female cultivator suddenly burst into tears. This shocked the hearts of the cultivators in that hidden place.
At the same time, a terrifying thought appeared in the minds of these human cultivators. They slowly approached the female cultivator, their eyes revealing a cold and sinister look.
"What do you think you're doing? This is my child!!"
"Is your child's life more important than the life of the workers? Die!"
A vicious cultivator attacked and killed the mother and son with a sword. However, none of the people present stood out to stop them, as if they had tacitly agreed to this action.
The Venerable Lone Dragon, who was looking down from above, saw this scene with his sharp eyes. He sneered, raised his head, and drank a mouthful of strong wine. He looked at the sun that was slowly setting in the distance and muttered to himself, as if he was talking to someone, but it also seemed like he was saying it to himself.
"Do you see it, Venerable Yun Chen? This is the human race that you sacrificed your life to seal me away for a thousand years to protect."
As he said this, he lowered his head and looked at the messy North Barren City before continuing to speak faintly, "humans are really pitiful creatures."
As the sun gradually set, the battle between the demon beasts continued. The demon beasts that had been silent for hundreds and thousands of years welcomed their common master, the Venerable Lone Dragon.
Under his leadership, he would be able to wipe out these humans one by one! He would be able to restore the glory of the demon race!
