Chapter 360: Chapter 229: Barbarian Clan Invasion_2

"Wan’er, since I chose to come out with you, I will definitely face everything with you."

Yang Fan said.

Even if the risks of this journey are extremely high, even if it means death, as long as he can die with the person he loves, it is worth it.

"Husband... it’s all my fault."

Wen Wan’s eyes reddened slightly. Yang Fan could have chosen not to accompany her.

But Yang Fan still resolutely joined her in coming to the Longevity Realm.

She knew that going to Tianyuan City would undoubtedly be fraught with immense danger.

"We are dao companions, how can you speak of burdening me? All along, I have found life in the Human World too leisurely and boring. Now that I am venturing into the Longevity Realm with you, I relish the experience."

Yang Fan shook his head as he spoke.

A few days later, Wen Wan and Yang Fan quietly left Yiling Town.

...

Two years later.

Inside the Daoist Temple on the back mountain.

Li Qian’s figure appeared out of thin air. His spiritual sense moved, scanning the surroundings, but he didn’t find Wen Wan and Yang Fan. Needless to say, the two must have not heeded his advice and left Yiling Town.

He then took out a jade token from his storage device.

This was an identity jade slip made by the Artifact Sect of the Martial Alliance.

Similar to the identity jade slips of the Dao Sect.

However, it was specially prepared for the disciples of Wuxin Peak.

Due to the special nature of the jade slip, only those at the Heavenly Person level could use it.

Therefore, all Wuxin Peak disciples who had reached the Heavenly Person level were given one of these identity jade slips.

Li Qian could use the identity jade slip to locate his disciples and determine if they were alive or dead.

However, this locating function only worked in the Human World.

In other worlds, it could at most indicate direction.

Of course, determining life and death was still straightforward.

With a mere thought of his spiritual sense, Li Qian could sense that the light representing Yang Fan was still bright and had not extinguished, clearly indicating that the disciple was still alive.

"Forget it, let him be," Li Qian shook his head.

Being alive was enough.

He couldn’t be bothered to manage more.

It was their choice.

Respecting others’ choices was always Li Qian’s approach.

Even if Yang Fan had perished, he would, at most, feel regret.

After all, he didn’t know Yang Fan’s whereabouts or circumstances, and if danger truly arose, he would be helpless to intervene, merely learning of his life and death in the end.

Li Qian began checking on his five registered disciples.

Their cultivation progress was quite satisfactory.

In particular, Lin Xu, with the highest talent, had entered the high ranks of the Great Grandmasters in just a few short years.

Such cultivation in Yiling Town naturally wasn’t much.

However, the speed of improvement was extremely astonishing.

Since he had been in the Return to Void for the past two years, he spent the next period subtly guiding these disciples on some martial arts issues across space.

One day, while Li Qian was cultivating, he suddenly opened his eyes and furrowed his brow.

The next moment, he had left the Longevity Realm and returned to the Human World.

Inside the underground palace.

Li Qian eyed the White Fox that walked in and beckoned with his hand, catching a jade talisman that fell into his palm.

His spiritual sense interacted with it, and he immediately obtained the information transmitted through the talisman.

It was a Ten Thousand Miles Communication Talisman.

As the Venerable Sage of the Dao Sect and Lord of Martial Alliance... if anything significant happened to the Dao Sect or Martial Alliance, they would definitely inform him immediately using a Ten Thousand Miles Communication Talisman.

"Barbarian Clan invasions emerging one after another in the Miasma Sea and Thunder Marsh?"

After obtaining the information, Li Qian’s brow furrowed.

The Miasma Sea and Thunder Marsh were a vast region bordering the Human World’s lands and the Barbaric Land. To traverse between the two, one must go through the Miasma Sea and Thunder Marsh.

The Miasma Sea and Thunder Marsh were extremely terrifying, rife with poisonous miasma, and on top of that, there were severe weather conditions and frequent lightning strikes.

That’s how the name Miasma Sea and Thunder Marsh came about.

Thus, even Martial Saint-level powerhouses found it immensely perilous to try crossing through the Miasma Sea and Thunder Marsh.

"The Wild Beasts can’t adapt to the concentration of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi on the side of the Human World... After some time, they will become weak and lose control, leading to rampages..."

Li Qian thought to himself, "Why would the Barbarian Tribe be invading? Isn’t that utterly pointless?"

Previously, Chi Yue Venerable Sage of the Azure Wolf Tribe had told him a lot about the conditions of the Barbaric Land.

Thus, it was nearly impossible for the Barbarian Tribe and the Wild Beasts of the Barbaric Land to cross the Miasma Sea and Thunder Marsh to reach the Human World.

The last time the Azure Wolf Tribe came over, it was also because of Fu Ling.

Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind; could this be related to that mysterious powerhouse from the Longevity Realm?

The mysterious Longevity Realm powerhouse who disappeared after utilizing the Longevity Plate has remained untraceable ever since.

Over these years, Li Qian has also secretly ordered the Martial Alliance to search for his whereabouts.

Still no news.

He speculated, could the Longevity Realm powerhouse have been transported to the Barbaric Land?

If tied to the sudden invasion of the Barbarian Tribes... then it is a possibility.

"If the Barbarian Tribe’s invasion is truly orchestrated by this individual behind the scenes, then it is an opportunity to completely eliminate this hidden threat."

Li Qian’s eyes flickered with a cold gleam.

The Human World is like his backyard, and for such potential threats, he would definitely not let them slide.

"You go and take a look at the situation first."

Li Qian said to the White Fox.

The White Fox nodded, then turned and departed.

Unless absolutely necessary, Li Qian’s true self would not easily leave the Chen Bell Domain.

Mainly because the constraints imposed by heaven and earth were too strong.

Comparatively, being in the Longevity Realm was much more comfortable.

That’s also why he now prefers to stay in the Longevity Realm.

After all, with the Chen Bell Domain straddling both worlds, whether he’s in the Divine Sword Sect or Yiling Town, there’s not much difference for him.

...

Thud, thud, thud...

The heavy trembling sound approached from the distance. It was a colossal creature nearly a thousand zhang tall, its entire body covered in long black hair, some even trailing down to its legs.

Moreover, this gigantic creature had a long trunk and a pair of immense, sharp tusks on its head.

Atop the back of this giant beast, a castle-like structure sat, resembling a mountain of stone.

"This Wild Beast is just too massive, isn’t it?"

A dozen or so figures floated in the distant sky, watching the enormous Wild Beast attentively.

These were, naturally, people from the Martial Alliance.

Leading them was the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s Jiang Gong, Venerable Sage, who watched the giant beast with furrowed brows.

He had seen the Wild Wolf Giant Beast of the Azure Wolf Tribe before, but compared to it, this beast was far inferior.

Judging by the aura, this Elephant Beast was clearly much stronger.

He couldn’t deal with the Wild Wolf Giant Beast, let alone this even more massive Elephant Beast.

After all, in the Barbaric Land, the strength of a Wild Beast was directly proportional to its size.

The bigger they are, the stronger they are.

"Besides this Elephant Beast, there are two other giant beasts... Although smaller in stature, they are larger than the last Wild Wolf Giant Beast... Saint Venerable, if these three giant beasts entered the Human World, the consequences would be unimaginable."

A top Great Saint from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect spoke with deep concern.

They could not handle even this one Elephant Beast, let alone two other powerful giant beasts.

The sudden appearance of three Barbarian Tribes crossing the Miasma Sea and Thunder Marsh to this land was an undoubtedly baleful sign.

"We can only wait for the Alliance Hierarch to handle this, hoping he has a solution."

Venerable Sage Jiang Gong said gravely.

However, he had no confidence in his heart.

Although the Daoist Sect Venerable Sage, the Lord of Martial Alliance, was very powerful... facing three mighty giant beasts was another story.

And, behind the giant beasts, the Barbarian Tribes were definitely not weak.

Roar!

Suddenly, the massive Elephant Beast stopped, lifted its enormous trunk, and let out an earth-shattering roar.

The many experts from the Martial Alliance observing from afar were shaken and afraid under the terrifying roar of the giant beast, their True Qi unstable and their Martial Intent trembling; this signified that they were already intimidated by the roar of the giant beast.

In combat, their strength would be greatly diminished, and they would be unable to unleash their true combat power.

"What’s that?"

Suddenly, Venerable Sage Jiang Gong looked towards another direction.

Clearly, the beast’s roar wasn’t meant for them.

Then, Venerable Sage Jiang Gong’s pupils shrank sharply, and he saw the space in that direction as if it had suddenly been torn open, a pure white light emerging, expanding rapidly, filling the sky and land.

In the next moment, an enormous beastly shadow hundreds of zhang tall descended upon this area.

It was a gigantic White Fox, with nine massive pure white tails waving in the sky.

"A Supreme Saint of the Demon Race?"

Venerable Sage Jiang Gong murmured to himself.

The aura emanating from the White Fox was undoubtedly Demon Energy, something that couldn’t escape his senses.

But the level of this White Fox’s Demon Energy was simply terrifying.

Definitely not an ordinary Supreme Saint of the Demon Race.

When did the fallen Demon Race spawn such a powerful Supreme Saint?
