119: Sanhai City is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Inside the main hall, the Beast Taming Sect members stood like puppets.

The expressions on their faces were identical, all showing the horror of seeing a ghost in broad daylight, along with endless absurdity and disbelief!

The Myriad Spirits Gate has a Spirit Transformation Realm mighty figure?

A Late Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator from Three Seas City died on the spot, his Dao extinguished.

Immortal Master Wanjian was severely wounded.

Each piece of news, like a storm, continuously battered their minds.

Especially the matter concerning Old Ancestor Jin Huo.

After all, both Ancestor Jin and Old Ancestor Huo were the cornerstones of the Beast Taming Sect.

Now, one has fallen, and the other is so severely injured that he only has one breath left.

This... this.

Everyone exchanged silent glances, making the atmosphere in the council hall extremely heavy, oppressive like the gloom before a storm.

Even Mysterious Ink, upon hearing these words, his majestic dragon pupils, which were originally full of laziness and playfulness, suddenly constricted.

A ripple also stirred in his heart.

If that's the case... isn't the entire East Sea Region's top combat strength basically wiped out now?

The East Sea Region, I fear, is about to descend into chaos.

Just as the entire main hall was completely enveloped by a thick despair and sorrow,

Shangguan Jing's voice, filled with endless hoarseness and determination, rang out once more.

"Deliver this Venerable One's decree!"

"From today onwards, my Beast Taming Sect and the Yin Spirit Clan of the Myriad Spirits Gate are irreconcilable enemies."

"All Disciples must go out and, at all costs, slay all Yin Spirit remnants that are at large."

"Absolutely do not allow them to collect even a shred of Soul power to heal that Spirit Transformation Realm demon... who is already severely wounded."

"As for the Blood Fiend Sect..."

He paused, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, which were filled with endless killing intent.

"Since the Myriad Spirits Gate has been annihilated, those rats who only dare to hide in dark corners have already fled without a trace upon hearing the news."

"The war with the Blood Fiend Sect ends here."

"Now, our only enemy is the Yin Spirit Clan... who attempts to turn my entire East Sea Region into a ghost Realm!"

...The heaviness and sorrow in the council hall did not linger long in the quiet Small Courtyard.

When Mysterious Ink bid farewell to Lin Yao and the other two, who were still somewhat dejected, and returned to the Cultivation Chamber that was already completely isolated from the outside world,

His majestic dragon pupils, which had rippled slightly due to the shocking bad news, once again returned to their usual laziness and calm.

When the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up.

Whether it was the Soul Transformation Realm demon that fled, or the already fragmented East Sea Region's situation,

None of it concerned him in the slightest.

His only task now was to protect this girl until she safely emerged from seclusion.

And... quietly await the massive amount of cultivation that was about to arrive.

However, just as he was about to enter a state of 'meditation' to take a nap again,

His majestic dragon pupils, which were half-closed, suddenly narrowed without warning.

The massive dragon head slowly lifted, looking towards a certain direction in Fallen Immortal City.

"Hmm?"

Just at that instant,

He keenly caught an extremely unfamiliar... Nascent Soul Realm Aura.

Although that Aura only flashed for an instant before its owner completely concealed it with a Secret Technique,

It still couldn't escape his perception.

After all, he was now a Yao Race, and his five senses were inherently much stronger than those of the Human Race at the same Realm.

"Another one..."

Mysterious Ink's magnetic voice slowly sounded, carrying a hint of playfulness.

This was the second unfamiliar Nascent Soul Realm Aura he had sensed in the past few days.

In addition, there were many unfamiliar Golden Core Realm faces.

They continuously poured into Fallen Immortal City, which had already become the storm's center of the entire East Sea Region, like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

"It seems this East Sea is truly about to descend into complete chaos..."

Mysterious Ink muttered to himself.

However, he was too lazy to pay it much heed; when soldiers come, he'll block them; when water comes, he'll cover it with earth.

As long as they didn't provoke him, it had nothing to do with him.

Shaking his massive dragon tail, he once again closed his majestic dragon pupils, which were full of laziness.

Continuing his leisurely and comfortable... great undertaking of guarding and idling... On the other side.

In Fallen Immortal City, filled with endless killing intent and iron-blooded Aura, before the most heavily guarded treasure vault,

Sect Master Shangguan Jing's figure, filled with endless sorrow and exhaustion, slowly appeared outside the stone door.

Looking at Ancestor Jin, who had transformed into human form and exuded a decaying Aura of someone nearing the end of their life,

His eyes, which were originally full of majesty, were instantly completely replaced by a thick sorrow.

At this moment, Ancestor Jin no longer possessed his former majesty and dominance.

He was like a Mortal elder in his twilight years, leaning dejectedly against the cold stone wall, his entire body exuding a thick Aura of old age.

So weak that it seemed a gust of wind could exhaust his oil and lamp, causing him to pass away.

"Old Ancestor..." Shangguan Jing's voice was hoarse to the extreme: "Your injuries... is there still a way to cure them?"

Ancestor Jin heard this and slowly shook his head.

A bitter smile appeared on his old face, which was originally full of gravitas and vicissitudes.

"It's useless."

"My injuries are beyond recovery."

He paused: "Physical injuries are merely superficial."

"The true injury lies in... Lifespan!"

"When I fought that Spirit Transformation Realm, I burned nearly eighty percent of my Lifespan, only then was I lucky enough to severely wound him."

"Now, my days are numbered."

Hearing these words, Shangguan Jing's heart suddenly ached.

His eyes, already bloodshot, had turned completely red.

"However..."

Just then, Ancestor Jin's tone shifted, and an Aura emanated from him.

An Aura as fierce as a dying lion king.

He looked towards a certain direction in the city: "Have you noticed those two newly emerged Nascent Soul Realm Auras in Fallen Immortal City?"

"This Disciple has already noticed them." Shangguan Jing quickly bowed and replied: "And, I have secretly sent people to investigate."

"But..."

He paused, a deep look of confusion appearing on his face.

"The identities of those two are as if they appeared out of thin air; no useful information could be found at all."

"Old Ancestor, do you know their origins?"

Ancestor Jin shook his head upon hearing this.

"I don't know either."

"However..." In his eyes, which had already become somewhat cloudy, a faint glint flashed, difficult to detect.

"You must pay more attention in the future to that force that has always been ignored by everyone..."

"Three Seas City!"

"Three Seas City?" Shangguan Jing was stunned upon hearing this.

"Precisely!" Ancestor Jin's voice suddenly became several times more solemn.

"The one who went with us to Myriad Spirits Manor to discuss important matters was not True Lord Sanhai himself, who is already famous throughout the East Sea."

"But a stranger... who claimed to be his younger brother."

"That person claimed that he had been cultivating diligently in an unknown Secret Realm until recently, when he emerged from seclusion."

"But neither Immortal Master Wanjian, nor I, nor Old Man Huo, had ever heard of this person's existence."

"Therefore..."

"That Three Seas City is definitely not as simple as it appears on the surface."

"You must be careful and on guard!"

Hearing this news, which could be called a shocking secret, Shangguan Jing's heart suddenly tightened.

He nodded heavily, engraving the words 'Three Seas City' firmly in his mind.
