488: War has begun!

The System’s notification caused Long Yuan’s pupils to shrink suddenly; this coffin was actually an Eternal Grade Divine Artifact!

“The Divine Soul of Azure Heaven, one of the Nine Heavens in the Origin Land?”

“Origin Land?”

Long Yuan stroked his chin. What kind of place was that?

“Could it be a world even vaster than the Primordial Ancient Realm? Otherwise, how could a powerful being like Azure Heaven appear?”

Looking at the coffin before him,

Long Yuan felt a bit unwilling.

He really wanted to take this coffin with him, after all, it was an Eternal Grade Divine Artifact! But with his current strength, he clearly wasn’t qualified!

If he hadn’t relied on the Primordial Azure Lotus, an Eternal Grade Divine Artifact, for defense, he wouldn’t even have the ability to get close!

“It seems my combat power is still far from the Eternal Realm!”

Although there were no gains on this trip,

It did give him a clearer understanding of his combat power’s position!

Although he had surpassed Tai Emperor and other Half-Step Eternal Realm experts, he was still far from the Eternal Realm!

“I wonder to what extent the upcoming Bloodline Return to Ancestry will boost my combat power?”

There would be two Bloodline Return to Ancestry events coming soon, which would definitely elevate his combat power to another level!

“I still need to accelerate the cultivation of the Chu Family!”

However, just as he was thinking this,

The System’s voice rang out again:

“Congratulations, Host, for completing the current mission: Cultivate the Guardian Family into a No Dao-Grade Family.”

“Mission Rewards: Fifty million years of Realm cultivation, fifty million years of Physical Body cultivation, one Bloodline Return to Ancestry, Eternal Grade Divine Ability ‘Chaos Infinite’, ten opportunities to raise Divine Ability Rank, 1000 portions of Divine-Grade Physique Origin, 1000 portions of Divine-Grade Martial Soul Origin, 500 portions of Supreme Body Origin, 500 portions of Supreme Martial Soul Origin, five No Dao grade artifacts, 50 Dao Comprehension Pills, 50 Breakthrough Pills, 100 Supreme Martial Soul Enhancement Pills, 20 Supreme Grade Physique Enhancement Pills, 20 Supreme-grade Martial Soul Enhancement Pills, three portions of Heavenly Dao Origin, Eternal Grade Divine Material ‘Chaos Eternal Stone’.”

??????

“So fast?”

Long Yuan was bewildered.

How long had it been since he completed the last System mission?

“That’s right, it’s the chaotic power here that caused a greater time difference between inside and outside!”

He hadn’t spent much time here,

But perhaps a long time had passed outside, so much so that the Chu Family had already become a No Dao-Grade Family!

“Oh no, it couldn’t have been ten thousand years, could it?”

Long Yuan was startled.

He couldn’t miss his appointed battle with the Evil Clan Supreme Ancestor!

Seeing that he couldn’t obtain anything here, Long Yuan immediately piloted the Primordial Azure Lotus and flew outwards.

At this moment, most of the Southern Realm had fallen into a great war,

Because many powerful individuals with Evil Qi had appeared here, some were Southern Realm Martial Artists, and others were Buddhist experts and Demon Race members from the West Realm.

“Hee hee hee!!! Die for me! All of you, turn into my nourishment!”

Crimson Evil Qi surged, like a spiritual snake or giant python, drilling into a Martial Artist’s mouth and nose, instantly devouring that Martial Artist into a dried corpse!

The Buddhist expert, whose entire body was entwined with Evil Qi, burped, immediately revealing a satisfied expression.

But then,

A sword light traversed endless space and struck. The expression on the Buddhist expert’s face hadn’t faded before it froze; a red thread had already appeared on his neck!

That was the mark left by the sword light, taking away the opponent’s life!

Then, a figure carrying a long sword appeared there, it was none other than the Sword Master!

Afterwards, several more figures descended, all carrying long swords like the Sword Master, emitting terrifying Sword Qi. These were all Sword Sect experts, now following their Old Ancestor to slay Evil Qi-infected experts!

“Old Ancestor, what exactly happened in the West Realm? How can there be so many powerful individuals infected with Evil Qi appearing?”

Someone asked the Sword Master in confusion,

Such a situation hadn’t occurred for countless years!

“Something happened in the West Realm. It is said that endless Evil Qi poured out from the depths of the earth, and a large number of Martial Artists were infected while the West Realm was completely unprepared!”

The Sword Master said with a frown, looking towards the West Realm.

“If this is not handled well, I’m afraid it will lead to great trouble!”

Especially with the impending date of the appointed battle between the Chu Family Beast God and the Evil Clan Supreme Ancestor, the Devouring Heaven Evil Clan would surely launch a full-scale invasion. Internal strife and external threats would truly become difficult to manage then!

“Could it be that the Evil Clan has started to make their move?”

Someone speculated.

“It’s hard to say. You all stay in the Southern Realm to deal with these Martial Artists infected with Evil Qi. If it truly becomes difficult to resist, head in the direction of the Chu Family!”

The Sword Master said to the few people beside him.

The most dangerous place in the Southern Realm was the Chu Family, and the safest was also the Chu Family!

“Old Ancestor, where are you going?”

“I have received Tai Emperor’s decree to go to the West Realm to resolve the source of the disaster. Don’t worry, many Supreme Giants are accompanying me!”

And for whatever reason,

He had to act!

Because Martial Artists infected with Evil Qi, apart from having their Divine Soul devoured by Evil Qi if they absorbed too much, were no different from the Devouring Heaven Evil Clan; they were terrifying existences that grew stronger through battle!

The more opponents they killed, the more they devoured, the more terrifying they became!

As the Sword Master disappeared from the sight of the Sword Sect members, the Sword Sect members, along with their Disciples, began to slay those in the Southern Realm.

Meanwhile, many members of the Chu Family had successively come out of seclusion, not because the free opening time of the Time Tower had expired, but because many people’s cultivation had reached its limit.

Although the System provided many special Physiques,

Even any Physique had a cultivation limit!

And subsequent cultivation would require relying on their Comprehension Ability, otherwise, even an extremely long period of time might not have any effect!

The many Martial Artists stuck at various Realms were strong evidence of this!

So those Family members who couldn’t Breakthrough left the Time Tower, choosing to venture out for trials to seek Opportunities and Breakthroughs!

And this naturally led them to fight against the Martial Artists infected with Evil Qi.

However, they weren’t in the least bit panicked about this,

After all, they had fought against Demon Race members infected with Evil Qi when they were in the Myriad Heavens, and many had deep experience.

“Goodness, this is all nourishment for my growth!”

Chu Hao was extremely excited,

Behind him, the “Devouring Heaven Martial Soul” appeared, instantly lunging at a Hongmeng Supreme Realm Demon Race member!

His Martial Soul had evolved,

From the former Supreme Grade Devouring Heaven Martial Soul to the current Supreme Grade Devouring Heaven Martial Soul, which also made his combat power several times stronger!

However, he didn’t reach the end of his cultivation in the Time Tower; he specifically left the Time Tower because he heard that there were living beings he could devour. For him, devouring living beings could improve his strength faster, at least much faster than normal cultivation!

Moreover, with living beings to devour and refine,

He wouldn’t need to consume various resources from the Family, and the saved resources could be used to Cultivate more powerful individuals for the Family!
