220: Chapter 220 The Tragic Scene in the East Recalls the Dragon Han Dynasty, the Candle Dragon Trembles, the Dragon Clan is Firm
The Northern Land, bordering the Beiming Sea, is the only region among the four directions with a public safe zone.
Any creature in the North wishing to avoid the Calamity and preserve themselves would head to the Northern Sea Black Tortoise to seek refuge.
The Northern Sea Black Tortoise is not the ordinary Black Tortoise that Tongtian and Zhunti fought over previously, but a unique Innate species in the Primordial World.
It was born when the Primordial World was first opened, its body as vast as a continent.
Its shell is covered with Spiritual Roots and Spiritual Springs, and amidst the swirling clouds, it forms a Small World of its own.
This unique Black Tortoise naturally loves peace and never participates in any conflicts. Moreover, because of its formidable strength and profound Karma, almost no one would cause it trouble.
Long ago...
Ever since disputes began to appear in the Beiming Sea, it voluntarily opened the Restriction on its back, allowing creatures from all sides without Karma to come up and live on its back.
Whenever a Calamity arose, it would further lift Restrictions, allowing creatures tainted with some Karma to come up and hide from the Calamity.
As long as they did not actively provoke disputes or disrupt the order of the world on its back, it would treat everyone equally and provide protection.
Thus, after the new Calamity began.
In just a short hundred years, countless small and medium-sized tribes, Loose Cultivators, and even some branches of the Dragon Clan had gathered and settled on the back of the Northern Sea Black Tortoise.
At this very moment, the turtle's back had become a rare "paradise," and although the Calamity Qi shrouded heaven and earth, it maintained a rare bit of peace.
The Black Tortoise's huge head occasionally surfaced from the Beiming Sea, breathing in Spiritual Qi, and its Primordial Spirit gently swept over the creatures on its back, its deep voice resounding like muffled thunder:
"Fellow Daoists, rest easy on my back. The Calamity is ruthless; although I do not have the abilities of a Saint, I can still protect this area with my body."
Numerous creatures bowed and expressed their gratitude upon hearing this.
...
The Eastern Land, the recognized strongest region in the Primordial World,
With a hundred flowers blooming among the races, abundant Luck, dragon-like Spiritual Veins, and countless blessed lands.
Since Pangu opened the heavens, this area has been the region where the most Innate divine beings, Innate creatures, and Acquired creatures were born.
There are even four Saints and one Hunyuan Golden Immortal who have established their Dao fields here.
Logically speaking, after the Calamity began, the East should have been the most stable place with the least slaughter.
Multiple forces should have been balancing each other.
However, as soon as the Calamity began, the East became the fiercest and most tragic battlefield!
There was no petty squabbling like in the West, no eerie balance like in the South, and certainly no paradise of refuge like in the North.
The Eastern Land from the very beginning of the Calamity, completely turned into a purgatory of slaughter.
The Tiger Clan, Fox Clan, Fire Clan, Water Clan, Ape Clan... countless clans with Quasi-Saint Old Ancestors began blitzkrieg attacks, engaging in frenzied slaughter and annexation simultaneously.
In the Eastern Land, within a primitive mountain range stretching for tens of millions of miles, tiger roars shook the heavens.
The contemporary Clan Chief of the Tiger Clan, Patriarch Bai Huang, holding a great blade that was a Top Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, was shrouded in golden light, his cultivation already at the Late Stage of the Quasi-Saint.
He slashed out, shattering the Void Realm, cutting down the opposing Fire Clan Quasi-Saint along with three volcanoes behind him.
"Old man of the Fire Clan, I've long found you an eyesore! Today, I shall use your fall to pave the way for my Tiger Clan to attain the Dao!"
"Arrogant! You are not worthy of taking my life!"
The Fire Clan Quasi-Saint was bathed in flames, quickly stabilizing his figure, and also held a long spear that was a Top Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, charging towards Patriarch Bai Huang.
Above, the two Quasi-Saint powerhouses were fighting, and below, the collision between the Fire Clan and Tiger Clan armies was also incredibly intense.
Not far away, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's illusion Formation covered a million miles, and the Fox Clan Chief, Su Mei'er, stepped barefoot on the Void Realm, her charming eyes like silk.
Countless Cultivators fell into the illusion, killing each other, with blood flowing like a river.
"Hee hee~ It would be best if the Tiger Clan and Fire Clan both suffer, so that this sister can reap the rewards of the fisherman..."
Once the Tiger Clan and Fire Clan had fought enough, the Fox Clan would clean up the battlefield!
In another battlefield, the Battle Ape Clan and Water Clan were fighting until the sky grew dark and the earth turned dim.
The Ape Clan Quasi-Saint held a High Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, the Hunyuan Staff, with staff shadows like mountains, each strike causing the seawater to surge backward.
The Water Clan Quasi-Saint sacrificed a High Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, the Water Spirit Bead, transforming into monstrous waves that swept across the land; both sides were fighting with red eyes.
The Eastern Land was filled with the smoke of war everywhere.
In just a hundred years,
Although no Quasi-Saints or Great Luo had fallen, Cultivators at the Taiyi and Golden Immortal levels were falling in droves like cut leeks.
Countless creatures died and their Dao dissipated, their Primordial Spirits returned to the Netherworld, and their Dao fruits turned into pure Spiritual Qi, returning to the Primordial World.
...
East Sea Eye.
The Dragon Clan's Great Luo were all in seclusion there.
The Dragon Clan's Old Ancestor, Candle Dragon, was coiled in the center, with the sun and moon alternating in his eyes and time flowing.
At this moment, his pair of huge vertical pupils were looking through layers of space, watching from afar the purgatory of slaughter in the Eastern Land.
In just a hundred years, the East had completely turned into a battlefield.
Countless clans were fighting to the death...
Watching this scene, Candle Dragon's huge Dao body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Longhan... Longhan Calamity..."
His deep voice echoed in the Sea Eye, carrying a trace of irrepressible fear and pain.
The tragic scene of the Longhan Calamity from years ago seemed to be reappearing before his eyes.
"It's too similar... It's too similar!"
Candle Dragon shook his huge dragon head frantically, his dragon whiskers dancing wildly, and the Qi in the Sea Eye was stirred up violently.
"Absolutely... absolutely must not participate in the Calamity! The Dragon Clan is finally stable now, the survival rate of the new generation has greatly increased, and there is the alliance with the Human Race... We must never repeat the same mistakes!"
His tone was so firm and resolute, even showing a trace of paranoia.
Candle Dragon gave a low roar and took out the Ancestral Dragon Pearl, invoking the Dragon Clan's Luck.
Immediately, the Ancestral Dragon Pearl bloomed with brilliant golden light again, instantly passing through the spatial barrier and reaching the Dragon Clan of the other three seas.
At almost the same moment—
The Quasi-Saint / Hunyuan Golden Immortal Old Ancestors in the Sea Eye spaces of the South Sea Dragon Tribe, North Sea Dragon Tribe, and West Sea Dragon Tribe all felt their minds shake, and Candle Dragon's urgent voice sounded in their ears:
"The Calamity is treacherous, far exceeding the past! The Eastern Land has already become a purgatory of slaughter, and the old scenes of the Longhan Calamity are reappearing!!"
"All Dragon Clan members, now! Immediately! At once! Reinforce the clan protection Formation! Prohibit any clansmen from going out! Violators will be dealt with according to clan rules and expelled from the Dragon Clan!"
"This Calamity is too fierce! The Dragon Clan cannot have any accidents!!"
The voice was like thunder, echoing for a long time in the Sea Eyes of the four seas.
After finishing the message, Candle Dragon forcibly broke through the shackles of the Heavenly Dao and strengthened the suppression of the East Sea Dragon Tribe.
"Here! Here! And here! Reinforce everything for me! Absolutely no gaps can be left!"
Inside the Sea Eye, Candle Dragon used all his magic power, spreading the Law of Time as if it were worthless, shrouding the East Sea Dragon Tribe.
Locking the East Sea Dragon Tribe tightly.
The Old Ancestor dragons of the other three Sea Eyes, who were Hunyuan Golden Immortals and Quasi-Saints, all had their expressions change drastically after receiving Candle Dragon's message.
They also broke free from the shackles of the Heavenly Dao one after another and personally took action to reinforce the Formation, preventing any possibility of going out.
