Chapter 2319 -2317: The Bell of the Holy Region
Rosie Lowe took a while to come to her senses. Upon hearing Ethan Smith speak, she summoned the people from the Azure Sky Palace to join them.
After issuing the order, the remaining disciples of the Azure Sky Palace cautiously approached the Great Hall.
Of the nearly three hundred disciples in Azure Sky Palace, fewer than twenty survived; the rest had almost all perished horribly.
“You go and bring the people around here. Don’t worry, I’ve killed all the demons here,” Ethan Smith said to the people who had just arrived.
In less than half a day, nearly three thousand people were brought over.
Almost half of them were children, and the rest were cultivators with relatively low cultivation.
You must understand, this is a vast continent.
When Ethan Smith first arrived on this continent, the population was nearly fifty thousand.
Now, not even one-tenth remained, which illustrates the severity of this calamity.
“These evil demons seem to be particularly ruthless towards cultivators with profound cultivation. Almost ninety percent of the True Saints on this continent have been hunted down.”
Rosie Lowe looked at the people, seemingly recalling the previous terrible massacre.
“These demons seem to have used some special ancient technique on those in the True Saint Realm, acquiring tremendous power through sacrifices.”
“At first, the sect could withstand them by utilizing the Great Array, but later these demons became stronger and seemed to directly suppress us with their Demonic Qi,” several elders discussed amongst themselves.
“I fear these are particular methods of the Demon clan, gaining the power of their space’s powerful entities through sacrifice,” Ethan Smith analyzed the recent battle, noting that the old Demon Clan man gained power that could suppress him in the end.
This indicated that, at the very least, the owner of that power could suppress Ethan Smith in terms of realm.
And now, the Spatial Rift might not be large enough to allow him passage, which is why he needed to use such means to descend.
Hmm? Ethan Smith noticed a faint and strange aura on the children.
This extremely subtle flow of energy was sensed only by Ethan Smith’s Divine Consciousness Pearl.
Desolate divine eye.
Opening the heavenly eye above the children’s heads.
Thin as a fishing line, black lines flowed out, extending all the way into the Spatial Rift.
For cultivators like Rosie Lowe with stronger cultivation, the black lines were extremely subtle.
Even with the desolate divine eye activated, they were virtually undetectable without close inspection.
It seemed the energy emitted by these ordinary people was stronger? Was this why the Demon Clan deliberately spared some of them?
And in the altar nearby, a thick black Qi, as thick as a bucket, undulated and fluttered, this energy being quite massive.
Ethan Smith moved his body and ascended high into the sky, now within the Qingluan Continent.
Not just the survivors, but also the bodies of the deceased emanated that energy.
Even in many open spaces, that aura kept emerging,
And not all these auras were the same color—they seemed to belong to different attributes.
Ultimately, they all converged into the Spatial Rift, transmitting to another space.
Ethan Smith frowned and carefully sensed the aura, only to discover that it was neither spiritual energy nor divine sense.
With a grasp of his hand, the black Qi passed through his palm, impossible to capture.
Using divine sense to impact these strange energies also ended up fruitless.
And these gases were not divine sense; the Soul Nightmare Technique was equally ineffective.
Ethan Smith’s mind stirred, and the Traceless Immortal Scripture violently surged into action.
In an instant, Ethan Smith’s body became like a black hole, attracting the vast nature’s spiritual energy towards him.
He gradually accelerated the operation of the Traceless Immortal Scripture, something Ethan Smith had never done to this degree before.
At this moment, the terrifying suction coming from Ethan Smith’s body even twisted the space around him,
and the black qi, as the Traceless Immortal Scripture was operated to near its limit, finally gave a shudder.
Rushing towards Ethan Smith’s body.
Ethan Smith hesitated for a moment and chose not to absorb the qi into his body, but instead, he directed it into the Storage Spirit Beads.
This substance was completely different from the path of his cultivation technique; he didn’t know what the consequences of taking it into his body might be, and he didn’t dare to try.
“Alright, let’s go.”
Ethan Smith took out a warship. The current warship was a magic weapon used by the Skeleton Gang leader for travel, with vast space inside.
It had no problem accommodating everyone, and thus they set off for Lornclould City.
Due to the large number of people, it was impossible to use the teleport array.
Therefore, they could only travel to Lornclould City by warship.
However, during the journey, they discovered numerous Executioner Sect disciples rapidly transmitting messages with the Earth Order tokens.
“Spatial rifts have appeared in places like Crescent Moon Continent, Bi Luo Continent, Fire Scale Continent, and they’re being invaded by Different Races!”
The faces of those Executioner Sect disciples, who were swiftly passing by, were all etched with grave concern.
“Is this a sign that chaos is impending?”
Ethan Smith’s expression became somewhat solemn.
The members of the Azure Sky Palace on the warship were even more downcast.
In troubled times, human lives were as worthless as weeds.
“Hopefully, these incidents are just isolated events,” an elder seemed to be praying. ƒreewebɳovel.com
However, everyone understood that if the same thing happened several times, it would no longer be coincidental.
…
…
Within the Middle State of the Holy Region, the sudden somber gong sounds rang out, spreading slowly like beacon fires signaling to each other.
Finally, the sound reached the entire Holy Region, which was the most ancient way of message transmission.
These giant bells were placed within countless sects, big and small, and even ordinary clans had them.
And this gong sound also signified that the strongest nine Great Families of the Holy Region had issued a gathering edict.
Within an instant, many cultivators left their seclusion and headed towards the Central Province.
In the Great Hall of the Taylor family, one of the nine Great Families,
the heads of all nine Great Families were gathered, including representatives of many clans and sects from the Central Province.
This included the Clan of The Chosen One, Anthony, and the representatives of many other powerful forces.
The prince who controlled Peach Blossom Island for the nine Great Families also appeared here.
“Recently, we have received messages from Purgatory, reporting that numerous spatial rifts have appeared within that Star System.”
“Different Races, including the demon race, Demon clan, Ghost Race, and others, have landed and are slaughtering the Hominini,” said Finlay Taylor, standing in the center of the Great Hall.
The others listened intently to Finlay Taylor’s introduction, their expressions turning solemn.
“As everyone knows, every Heavenly Dao Year is prone to much turmoil. This is because of the Heavenly Dao Tide, caused by standoffs amongst Different Races.”
“This is the first time the three races have united. For now, there has been no appearance of cultivators above the Fifth Grade True Saint in Purgatory, but according to the patriarch of the Taylor family, the invasions by their strongest members in Purgatory is inevitable.”
After listening to Finlay Taylor, someone asked with a furrowed brow,
“Purgatory is considered a lower-grade Star System. If we secure the key passages well, even if the gods and demons of heaven descended, wouldn’t they be unable to reach the Holy Region?”
“Ordinarily, that would be the case, but we must not be complacent.”
“As for the demon race, let’s not discuss them for the moment. The Demon clan and Ghost Race have long been roaming the lowest-grade Star Systems. The fact that they could break through their restraints and launch a surprise attack on Purgatory this time should have been impossible, suggesting these two races may already possess a method to breakthrough the Star System limitations,” Finlay Taylor slowly spoke out the information he had received.
