Chapter 202: Unwelcome Guests Arrive, the Human Race Powerhouses Gather!

With the Demon Race entering the borders, it naturally caused quite a few disasters for other regions.

But Leping County is so remote, and with two Heaven and Earth Enlightenment powerhouses, Long Xi and Jiu Jiu, living in seclusion here, plus Yuan Sheng, who is already stepping toward the Nascent Soul realm, not even the slightest sign of demon disaster can be seen in the vicinity of Leping County.

Yet, Leping County's peace does not mean that other regions within the Heaven and Earth of the Four Wilds and Eight Desolations are peaceful.

This day, at the former site of Wanglin Mountain.

"Is this the place the Eldest Senior Brother spoke of, where his father attempted to attain the Dao ages ago?"

The former site of Wanglin Mountain, over the passage of 150,000 years, has long since turned into a vast lake.

And today, on the former site of Wanglin Mountain, there are six or seven figures appearing above this Wanglin Mountain—no, it should be called Wanglin Lake.

Following the collapse of the Northern Front, the Demon Allied Forces can be said to have been advancing triumphantly.

At the very least, this former holy land of the Human Race has now fallen into the hands of the Demon Race.

"I can indeed feel some ethereal aura; the compass bestowed by Master is constantly rotating, meaning the void space here is not closed very tightly. At the very least, if we want to open it, it will take much less effort."

Among these six or seven figures, one holds a Compass in their hand.

This figure is dressed in white, with a jade belt at their waist and a hair crown on their head; in the eyes of the uninformed, this is merely a graceful young gentleman of the mundane world.

Yet, after this white-clothed existence speaks, the other figures all fix their gazes solely upon them.

Clearly, this group is led by this white-clothed young gentleman.

"Then, shall we stay here for now?"

Among these seven or eight figures, there is another woman dressed in yellow, with bright eyes and white teeth, appearing as a young maiden.

The yellow-clothed woman looks at the white-clothed young gentleman, her voice carrying a hint of hesitation as she speaks.

"Leaving one or two people here is enough. Since we have come to the Inner Heaven and Earth, we should naturally take a good look around this region."

"After all, looking across the Inner and Outer Heaven and Earth, a place with such immense vitality as the Four Wilds and Eight Desolations is rare even if one searches the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."

"You all discuss how to take turns guarding this place; as for the rest, do whatever you wish!"

The white-clothed young gentleman shakes his head; he can see the eagerness in the eyes of his junior brothers and sisters. Listening to his words, these people—are they truly from a realm outside the Great Wilderness?

After leaving these words, the white-clothed young gentleman does not linger at Wanglin Lake; in the blink of an eye, he transforms into an illusory shadow and disappears before the eyes of his junior brothers and sisters.

"The Inner Heaven and Earth!"

"It is said that the Inner Heaven and Earth has ties to every Heavenly Venerable. In the past, I was skeptical, but only when truly standing within the Inner Heaven and Earth can one perceive just how immense the vitality here is."

"It is just a pity, a pity that the Inner Heaven and Earth seems to have birthed a will, actually beginning to suppress our cultivation realms."

Following the departure of the white-clothed young gentleman, the remaining few stand near Wanglin Lake, gazing at the vast, misty expanse of the lake and sighing one after another.

These people come from outside the Great Wilderness; since they were sent to this Heaven and Earth by their respective families, they are naturally not weaklings.

Even though their strength is suppressed to the Heaven and Earth Enlightenment realm within the Four Wilds and Eight Desolations, back in the Great Wilderness, these people are all of the Quasi-Supreme variety.

"Let the two weakest stay!"

"Senior Brother has his duties, so we shall go on his behalf to properly see what this Inner Heaven and Earth looks like and walk around to various places. According to the Heavenly Venerable, the End of Era Calamity is not far off. If we can accumulate enough vitality within the Inner Heaven and Earth, it is not impossible to reach the Heavenly Human Realm before the End of Era Calamity."

These outsiders divide their duties in a few words, and afterward, they transform into streaks of light and depart.

Only the two figures left behind smile bitterly at each other and build a hut to reside in near Wanglin Lake.

These existences from the Great Wilderness never alerted anyone from start to finish, and those powerhouses within the Heaven and Earth are even less capable of perceiving that a few Quasi-Supremes, suppressed to the Heaven and Earth Enlightenment realm, have appeared within the world.

The great war between the Demon Race and the Human Race continues; not only in Beidi, but even the Western Lands front has suffered extremely violent impacts from the Demon Race over the past month or two.

Throughout the entire Heaven and Earth, everywhere is a scene of ceaseless war.

Human Race, Central City.

This is the only main city among the four regions of Southeast, Northwest, and Central that Yuan Sheng established back then, and it is the one closest to the central territory of the Human Race.

As time passed, the great arrays of the four main cities are no longer complete, and Central City has become the true central hub of the Human Race in the years that followed.

And at this moment, inside the main hall of Central City, figures with terrifying auras come and go.

These figures are, without a doubt, the deities of the Human Race.

Compared to the time before Yuan Sheng's reincarnation, the Human Race of this era is far too prosperous, especially with the policy of one city, one deity, which gives the Human Race nearly four hundred deities at the Heaven and Earth Enlightenment level alone.

If one adds the powerhouses hiding in seclusion in various sects, the number of Heaven and Earth Enlightenment deities in the Human Race is likely even higher.

But at this moment, inside the Central City Grand Hall, these passing Human Race powerhouses have hurried footsteps, and their faces all carry a hint of trepidation and unease.

Over the past month or so, they have successively received news from the Human Race powerhouses on the Northern Front.

But the outcome is clearly not very good.

Were it not for this, the Human Race would not have rung the Human Emperor Bell to gather all the powerhouses capable of walking the world.

The so-called Human Emperor Bell is a great bell cast by Gu Shengxi to summon Human Race powerhouses when he presided over the Human Race.

As long as one is within the territory of the Human Race, those who shirk their duties when the Human Emperor Bell is rung are considered traitors to the Human Race! "Quiet, quiet!"

As the Human Race powerhouses gather in the Central City Grand Hall and the various Human Race monarchs take their seats, the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain speaks, his voice like a thunderclap.

Under the voice of this old Celestial Master, these Human Race powerhouses gradually begin to quiet down.

In the vast Central City Grand Hall, everyone in their seats fixes their gaze upon the monarchs sitting at the very front.

And among them, even more people fix their gaze upon the newly succeeded Emperor Jing.

"The Demon Race has invaded our borders; you are all active in the human world, so you must all be aware!"

"The Northern Front has rotted; in just a few days, the entire Northern Front collapsed, and the twelve Human Race deities presiding over it have been confirmed to have all fallen!"

"I have summoned you all here, not to let you argue."

"You should all have sensed that the Demon Race has mobilized almost their entire nest this time, holding ten thousand parts of malice toward our Human Race!"
