317: Hazel Mushroom

M City is surrounded by mountains on all sides.

At the junction of two big mountains, on the vast plain stretching as far as the eye could see.

Countless insects surged forward like a tide.

The insect swarm incident, filmed by reporters within M City, had already swept across Dragon Country and even the World!

Many high-level officials in Kyoto watched the situation of the insect swarm through the live broadcast footage, feeling a chill in their hearts.

They had originally thought they still had time.

They had never expected that in places they couldn't see, such a massive insect swarm had already developed!

If M City hadn't had Cultivators, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

The insects were constantly being shredded by sword energy.

In the sky, one hundred Cloud Sword Sect Disciples stepping on Flying Swords were filled with solemnity.

Such an insect disaster, although lacking powerful individuals, had a number sufficient to Destroy ordinary kingdoms!

"There's something underground too! It wants to avoid the Array Formation!"

Suddenly, a Disciple in the sky had sharp eyes, clearly seeing something attempting to bypass the sword array from underground!

The Disciple's words made many citizens below their hearts skip a beat.

However, subsequently, the strongest Disciple, Yun Xiao Jian, frowned and said to that Disciple, "Focused on secluded cultivation, you've even forgotten the defense range of the Thousand Swords Soaring Cloud Formation?"

"The Thousand Swords Soaring Cloud Formation is a fifth-grade sword array. How could an Array Formation of this level be broken through just from underground?"

The slightly stern lecture made that Disciple lower his head in shame, "Senior Brother is right."

"Boom!"

It was at this moment.

The ground within the attack range of the sword array exploded with a roar!

A figure, under the extremely sharp sword energy's strangulation, was revealed in a sorry state!

The moment the figure appeared, the insect swarm behind paused slightly, revealing an empty space.

On the shattered ground, a few white threads supported the man as he stepped into the void.

The Suit on his body had completely turned into rags, looking like a beggar under the rendering of dust and ash.

The sword energy that occasionally sliced across his body left a deep wound on him!

And beneath that wound, it was not Human flesh and blood tissue.

The man, under everyone's gaze, slowly raised that ordinary head: "Cultivators, tsk tsk tsk, I really want to... step on you!"

As he spoke, the man's mouth slowly curled up under his cold gaze.

"You are the source of this disaster?!" Yun Xiao Jian looked at the man in the sword array, his expression serious.

The opponent's aura was actually as powerful as a Martial King level Elder within the sect!

Nangong Shushuang, who was watching this scene at all times, narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly.

She recognized it; this was another Clone of that guy from the prison last night!

Stronger than that four-star Peak, it was at the five-star level!

Up until now, no creature of this level had been discovered globally!

"Boom!" The man within the sword array's attack range didn't waste any words.

As his aura surged, he himself turned into a blurry figure.

He, like a cannonball, charged straight towards M City!

"Martial King, indeed very strong."

Yun Xiao Jian nodded slightly, then said, "However, this is still not enough to break through our Thousand Swords Soaring Cloud Formation!"

"Thousand Swords: Sword of Fire!"

"Clang clang clang..."

The hundred Disciples formed hand seals in their hands.

In the dazzling radiance, countless chaotic sword energies instantly gathered!

Under the gaze of countless people.

A giant long sword, like a divine weapon descending from the Nine Heavens, bathed in endless flames, fell from the cloud layer above the countless tall buildings in M City!

"Cultivators, these are Cultivators!"

Countless people watched this scene with bated breath.

Although not as shocking as the scene of the Dragon God descending upon the World last night, such methods were enough to engrave the words 'defying Heaven' into the minds of ordinary people!

"Go!"

The one hundred Cloud Sword Sect Disciples stepping on swords in the void all spoke out in unison.

In an instant.

The long sword in the sky suddenly disappeared in a stream of light.

At the moment night fell, carrying absolutely striking fire light and grandeur, it pointed directly at the man charging the sword array from below!

Facing this sword directly, the Suit Man had no thought of retreating in the slightest.

"Get lost!"

His entire body's aura surged again!

The power reaching its limit nearly burst this Clone body.

"Boom!"

The moment the man and the giant sword collided with a roar, a visible shockwave exploded in mid-air!

Yet, it was only the next breath.

That seemingly extremely strong man was directly incinerated by the fire light into specks of nothingness.

The ashes sprinkled from the sky were his ashes.

The giant sword, which almost instantly killed the man, had no pause afterwards.

Carrying its undiminished might, it roared and plunged onto the vast plain!

Everyone in M City, through the junction of those two high mountains, could clearly see the moment the giant sword landed.

Intense fire light, accompanied by terrifying sword energy impact, spread directly towards the insect swarm!

The endless insect swarm, in the fire light, directly turned into charcoal.

The scene, countless times more real than special effects, caused countless people to fall into a daze.

...

Widespread power outages, nuclear leaks, insect swarms...

This series of major events received high attention from countries all over the World.

United States.

After seeing what happened in M City of Dragon Country, the high-level officials gathered together within an hour afterwards.

At the meeting.

A photo was placed among the high-level officials of the United States.

It was an East Asian face.

If one still remembered the insect swarm live broadcast from not long ago, they would definitely recognize that the man in this photo was precisely the one manipulating the insect swarm!

"Huang Chengjue, a Dragon Country national, was an international student in our Bobi City in the United States."

At the meeting, a pot-bellied white man read out the information about the man in the photo.

"I have an impression."

Another man with a receding hairline in the meeting frowned slightly, "He was also a valuable two-star evolution user, but when Bobi City fell at that time, he should have died."

"How did Bobi City fall?"

Among the dozen or so people at the high-level meeting, the United States Prime Minister sitting in the first seat held Huang Chengjue's photo.

"Because of Ganoderma mushrooms."

The Governor of N State was very clear, because Bobi City was within his territory.

"A month ago, Bobi City was occupied by countless Ganoderma mushrooms on one night.

Everyone inside couldn't be contacted, and the Soldiers sent to investigate also lost contact."

"I contacted the Prime Minister about this matter before."

The words of the Governor of N State prompted the Prime Minister to also remember this matter, and his expression became much heavier.

At that time, he thought they were just Ganoderma mushrooms and didn't pay much attention.

Now, through Huang Chengjue appearing in Dragon Country, he knew the matter must be extremely serious!

Putting down the photo in his hand, the United States Prime Minister was direct: "Concentrate all forces to deal with the Ganoderma mushrooms in Bobi City and then dig out the source!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present nodded in agreement.

"Also..."

The Prime Minister said this, his eyes showing some envy, "Get in contact with Dragon Country and do everything possible to have them teach us Cultivation!"

Learning Cultivation.

This idea was not unique to the United States.

Polar Bear, Japan, South Korea...

Everyone, after witnessing the terrifying abilities of the Cultivators in Dragon Country, was filled with yearning.
