457: The storm spreads

This old man, named Su Bai, hurried to the battlefield where Li Qi and Demon Yi were in a fierce confrontation.

Su Bai enjoyed a great reputation in the Divine Firmament World, being hailed as the strongest Dao Source Realm expert; at the same time, he was the most senior and experienced one in this Realm.

From the moment he stepped into the Dao Source Realm, Su Bai had devoted most of his time to closed-door cultivation.

He would often stay in seclusion for as long as a thousand years, during which he rarely had contact with the outside world, all to explore that higher level of cultivation Realm more deeply.

Not long ago, Su Bai finally ended this long seclusion. When he stepped out of that quiet place of cultivation, he felt refreshed, as if a long-held pressure had been released.

This seclusion was of great harvest for Su Bai; he felt he had taken another big step toward that higher mysterious Realm.

Originally, he planned to take this opportunity to travel for a few days and appreciate the world's beauty to relax his mind.

However, just as he was preparing to return to his place of seclusion to continue his path of cultivation, a piece of shocking news broke his plans.

A conflict between Dao Source Realm powerhouses had actually occurred within the Divine Firmament World, and one powerhouse had already fallen in this conflict.

Hearing this news, Su Bai was shocked beyond measure, finding it hard to believe.

Dao Source Realm cultivators in the Divine Firmament World were already scarce and mostly had connections with each other; how could such a conflict suddenly occur?

After some careful investigation, Su Bai discovered that the two sides of the conflict were actually two unfamiliar Dao Source Realm powerhouses, likely having entered the Divine Firmament World from the outside.

This news made Su Bai feel very puzzled.

"Foreign Dao Source Realms? Who exactly are they?"

His heart was full of doubt, and he immediately decided to go to the scene of the incident to investigate personally.

When Su Bai arrived at the battlefield, he immediately noticed the strange atmosphere around him.

"Devilish Qi is actually permeating here?"

He scanned the surroundings with a sharp gaze, "Could it be remnants of the Demon Race causing trouble here?"

At the thought of the Demon Race, Su Bai's expression became solemn.

The Demon Race takes pleasure in slaughter and chaos, and a Dao Source Realm powerhouse of the Demon Race is an even greater threat.

Not only do they possess great strength, but their actions are also mysterious and unpredictable, often bringing endless disaster and destruction to the world.

Su Bai felt a chill in his heart; he was determined to thoroughly investigate the truth of this matter. If the Demon Race was indeed pulling strings in the dark, he would definitely not sit idly by.

After summoning a wisp of dissipated Devilish Qi and carefully examining it, Su Bai was completely shocked.

"It's actually a Demon General under the Saint Demon?"

"How could it be the Saint Demon?"

In Su Bai's long life, he knew of existences like the Saint Demon, and he also knew that the Saint Demon had long since died, disappearing into the long river of time.

And these Demon Generals and the Saint Demon shared a relationship where they prospered together and suffered together.

If the Saint Demon is dead, the Demon Generals do not exist...

If the Saint Demon does not die... the Demon Generals are immortal!

Now that a Demon General has appeared in the world... is that Saint Demon also about to return?

Su Bai was startled, his whole body feeling as if it had fallen into an ice cellar.

He knew how strong the Saint Demon was; such an existence was almost invincible, and once he appeared... he would surely bring about a terrifying catastrophe.

Previously, Su Bai had also vaguely heard rumors saying the Saint Demon was coming, but he had ignored them and sneered.

Do these people even know who the Saint Demon is?

Knowing nothing, yet they dare to talk nonsense here?

Simply ridiculous.

But today, after Su Bai sensed the existence of the Demon General, he knew those weren't just rumors; that Saint Demon... might really be about to return.

Su Bai's heart was anxious and flustered; he looked at this wisp of Devilish Qi in his hand and carefully stored it away.

"It seems... it's time to contact those old friends."

Su Bai rose, his figure soaring into the sky, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye...

Not only Su Bai noticed the aura of the Demon General; powerhouses from some forces had also secretly visited that place of confrontation and noticed the anomaly as well.

The news was constantly spreading, and more and more people learned about the Saint Demon, their faces all changing upon hearing it.

For a moment, undercurrents were already surging throughout the entire Divine Firmament World...

...

While various changes were happening in the outside world, Li Qi was completely unaware, still putting all his effort into earning creation crystal stones and Potential Points.

But at this moment, the disturbance of the Saint Demon had already reached the Immortal Martial God Sect and reached Li Qi's ears.

"Senior Brother Li, Senior Sister Phoenix Lord, the Sect Head invites Senior Brother to the main hall for a talk."

A Disciple came to the front of Langyuan Palace and called out.

Li Qi looked in the direction of the palace gate and then at the Phoenix Lord beside him, momentarily stunned.

"Revered Master called both of us over at the same time; what could it be?"

"I don't know, we'll find out when we go there."

The two of them dressed and left Langyuan Palace together, heading toward the Sect Master's Main Hall.

After arriving at the main hall, Li Qi saw not only Xiao Ruochen but also several other Creation Realm Disciples who had been called.

Li Qi asked, "Revered Master, what is this about?"

Meanwhile, Xiao Ruochen's face bore a clear look of worry.

"Bad news: the Saint Demon is coming soon..."
