Chapter 66: Chapter 58 Turmoil Insider_3

At the table next to him, Ye Chen’s expression turned utterly solemn. He had thought the Demon Beast turmoil was already terrifying enough, but now there was a possibility that it could escalate into the most horrific Demon Beast turmoil in history, with a Beast God from the Heavenly Divine Realm possibly emerging.

This was all beyond his expectations.

He instinctively thought of the mysterious bone fragment inside Elder Yan’s Ancient Ring. What Divine Treasure did this fragment of a Treasure Map, which even beings from the Demon Beast Mountain Range so coveted, actually record?

Then, he thought about the Martial God Temple, an ancient and mysterious Super force, on par with the Three Great Empires and the University, which had also sent the Anyang Martial God to seize the bone fragment.

Obviously, the origin of this bone fragment and the Demon Beast Mountain Range’s interest were possibly known to the Martial God Temple as well.

Unfortunately, the bone fragment ultimately ended up in Ye Chen’s hands.

However, all this was not the main concern at the moment. What was most important was to deal with the impending Demon Beast turmoil. He was unafraid of all this, with Elder Yan, the mysterious Old Immortal by his side, protecting his Dao, he had no need to worry about his life. But his family in Luofeng City filled him with concern.

After gathering enough information, Ye Chen paid for the drinks and left immediately. He took pen to paper and wrote a letter outlining the essential details, offering a hefty sum for a messenger to deliver it day and night to Luofeng City, thousands of miles away.

He hoped his father would be prepared accordingly, because, this time, the Demon Beast turmoil could indeed be terrifying enough to destroy the entire Luofeng City.

However, he believed that Xiafeng Country would not stand idly by. Surely, true Super Experts would emerge to thwart this dominion-level Beast God from the deepest reaches.

Seeing the look of worry in Ye Chen’s brows, Elder Yan suddenly said, "Are you thinking of going back to Luofeng City to guard against this Demon Beast turmoil?"

Ye Chen responded affirmatively, without any intention of hiding it. If it came to that, he would rush back to Luofeng City as soon as possible. Even if he couldn’t stop the disaster, at least he would be able to lead his parents, Huan’er, Ye Zimei, and other important people away from the catastrophe.

Elder Yan looked at Ye Chen with a touch of relief. He could tell that, although Ye Chen seemed indifferent and uninterested in romance, with a character from his past life, he was indeed a good man of intense feelings and loyalty.

He smiled and said, "You needn’t worry about this. Before leaving Luofeng City, I left a trace of Divine Thought with your parents. It will protect them. And should Luofeng City face any trouble, I will be the first to know."

Ye Chen was slightly stunned. He hadn’t been aware that Elder Yan had such a contingency in place. With Elder Yan’s capabilities, he could rush back immediately if anything happened to his parents, so there was no need to worry about their safety. A sense of gratitude flowed in him as he said, "Elder Yan, thank you."

Elder Yan laughed, "What’s there to thank? After all, you are the one I’m protecting, and you will be the one to revive me in the future. It’s only right. I wouldn’t want your parents’ trouble to affect your pursuit of the Dao."

Ye Chen said no more. Being the kind of person he was, he would not express his gratitude lightly with just words; it was more significant for him to reciprocate with actions in the future.

In the days that followed, an extraordinarily oppressive atmosphere spread over the Demon Beast Mountain Range, filling the entire Heavenly Dome.

Endless dark clouds hid Cangqiong, a heavy mass that blocked out the sun, dimming the entire sky with no hint of sunlight reaching the ground.

Countless people in Demon Suppression City could feel the suffocating atmosphere as if the air was being sucked out, leaving them gasping for breath.

Everyone was terrified, sensing that the most frightening Demon Beast turmoil in the history of Xiafeng Country was about to erupt.

Outside the city, facing the direction of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, a 300,000-strong army in heavy armor was stationed day and night on alert. Traps had already been quickly set up, and buffer zones were being prepared to mitigate the initial fierce onslaught of the Demon Beast turmoil.

Additionally, armies were rapidly making their way from the frontiers to various towns beneath the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

Although the primary outbreak spot was Demon Suppression City, other towns would also be targeted by the Demon Beast turmoil and required the deployment of armies for support.

Everything was ready for action, the atmosphere thick with tension and oppression.

But the Demon Beast turmoil had not yet begun. In the last couple of days, even the roars of the Demon Beasts in the mountain range had lessened, resulting in an oppressively quiet environment.

Ye Chen would sometimes appear at the highest point in the city, looking towards the dark Demon Beast Mountain Range. Each time, he saw terrifying Blood Qi surging into the sky from within the mountains, rumbling mightily, as if an ancient Fierce Beast from a bygone era was awakening, immensely terrifying.

The great battle was about to commence.

The night grew deeper, the clouds shrouded the sky, and the bright moon was nowhere to be seen. Although the city was brightly lit, it lacked its usual ambiance, all because of the dreadful oppressive atmosphere from the Demon Beast Mountain Range.

People were panicking!

Ye Chen continued his meditation, seeming as if all of it had nothing to do with him, utterly unbothered.

As the night deepened, Ye Chen suddenly opened his eyes during his meditation, soared up from the inn where he was staying, and stood atop the rooftop. His eyes shone brilliantly as he gazed towards the Demon Beast Mountain Range, dozens of miles away.

Boom—

A thunderous explosion suddenly erupted in the silent night sky, echoing over the empty plains, many times louder than spring thunder, startling many from their sleep.

Inside and outside the city, countless people woke up, left their rooms, and went to the highest points. They all looked in the direction of the Demon Beast Mountain Range to see endless light shining there, illuminating thousands of miles of landscape as bright as day, as if the sun had risen in the sky.

Within the mountain range, a horrific roar of a Demon Beast resounded through heaven and earth—

The world was shocked. Had the most terrifying Demon Beast turmoil in history begun!?

PS: The writing went smoothly, merging two Chapters into one, which counts as the first and second updates, with the third update to come, but it might be late until after midnight, so I’m giving a heads-up here.
