Chapter 1289: The World Has Changed

"You're full of shit! Where would so many Divine Spirits come from? If you don't behave, do you think I, the Divine Venerable, won't shear your head off?" Er Gouzi shouted again at this moment, threatening and intimidating Little Yellow.

Little Yellow's face was filled with panic as he hurriedly cried out, "I swear, everything I said is true! But you've misunderstood; a Guardian Deity does not necessarily mean a Divine Spirit. There are some legends in our clan that the strength of that Guardian Deity should be equivalent to your Human Race's Immortal Emperor, because back then it was heavily injured by a Human Immortal Emperor before fleeing back to the seabed!"

"Immortal Emperor realm!" Xu Que's expression immediately relaxed, and he exchanged glances with Er Gouzi, Duan Jiude, and the others.

Although an Immortal Emperor is much weaker than a Divine Spirit, in the current situation, it is still a huge trouble!

"Calculating by time, there are still two days until that prophecy; perhaps before then, we can first move Xuan Yuan Wanrong to another location, or even find a way to release her, which might resolve the Bang Leader's crisis!" Mo Junchen suggested.

"Release her? That is absolutely impossible! Although she wouldn't dare kill this kid, she definitely won't let us few off; that woman is a madwoman!" Duan Jiude immediately shook his head, opposing this suggestion.

Xu Que also fell silent; although he believed Xuan Yuan Wanrong wouldn't dare kill him, he was ultimately one of that woman's weaknesses, and if she captured and sealed him away, wouldn't that be a massive loss of face?

"How could that be?" Mo Junchen looked completely confused. "She is the Bang Leader's wife; why would she not let you off?"

Speaking of this, Mo Junchen's confused gaze turned to Xu Que, full of questioning, as if asking: What happened to establishing husbandly authority? Could it be that you are actually afraid of your wife?

Seeing this, Xu Que immediately became displeased; he took a deep breath, puffed out his chest, raised his head, and shouted with a shocking voice, "Duan Jiude, what did you mean by those words just now? Do you think I can't handle that wretch? Come on, everyone follow me inside; today I'll show you all what true masculinity looks like!"

Having said this, Xu Que stepped forward first, simultaneously grabbing hold of Duan Jiude and Er Gouzi, who were trying to flee, and marched directly toward the entrance of Buried Immortal Valley.

"Damn it, kid, let go of me, the Divine Venerable! I need to take a piss!"

"Kid, let's talk things over properly; you can't do this! Don't drag this old man along to die with you!"

Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude immediately shouted loudly.

Mo Junchen was slightly stunned, somewhat unable to understand why Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude were so afraid, but seeing Xu Que exude such confident momentum, he instantly felt very reassured!

Whenever the Bang Leader is this confident, he definitely has a plan!

Thinking this in his heart, he immediately followed Xu Que into Buried Immortal Valley, along with Liu Jingning, the Zha Tian Bang Members present, and even the Eight-Headed Snake!

At the same time, in the sea area at the Donghuang Border.

Amidst towering waves, a million-strong Sea Race army stood ready at the seabed, fully equipped and awaiting orders.

Leading them were dozens of Sea Race Generals clad in golden and silver armor, transformed into human forms, heroic and majestic, standing amidst the surging seawater, their gazes lifted toward the high sky as if observing and waiting for something.

A few breaths later, the seawater suddenly churned violently, and a huge black shadow approached from behind; it was actually a sea turtle massive as a mountain, drifting across the sea surface.

"Greetings, My Lord!"

The million-strong Sea Race army, along with the dozens of Sea Race Generals, immediately knelt on the ground and shouted in unison.

The giant turtle did not glance sideways but stared straight ahead, replying with solemnity, "The world is changing; The One is about to awaken. If you fail to capture Buried Immortal Valley within one day, you will bear the consequences yourselves!"

"Yes!" The roar of the million-strong Sea Race army echoed throughout the area, stirring up great waves in the seawater.

In the Northern Sea area.

Within the territory of the Kunpeng Clan.

The Kunpeng Clan Leader led his clansmen, standing atop a high mountain in the Northern Sea, gazing at the distant sea area with a grave expression, sighing softly, "The waves hide surging currents, and murderous intent is fully exposed; who would have thought that the omen left by our ancestors would come to pass in our generation! The world is changing; our ancestors will return, and our clan will soon rise!"

"Our ancestors will return? Then... are the matters regarding Tianzhou also true?" a middle-aged man of the Kunpeng Clan asked.

The Kunpeng Clan Leader nodded slightly and sighed, "Indeed, with the opening of the Immortal Emperor Era and the return of the ancestors of all races, the situation will be one of ten thousand clans standing together; the Human Race faces great trouble!"

In the Western Desert.

In the endless sea of sand, many temples rang their bells, the sound echoing for ten thousand li.

In the center of the vast desert stood a dilapidated Ancient Temple, inside which sat numerous Buddha statues covered in mottled rust.

But on this day, the bell sounds rang out.

The mottled rust on the Buddha statues suddenly fell away, making them brand new and glowing with a sacred Golden Beam.

"Creak!"

An old monk pushed the door open and entered; seeing the changes in the Buddha statues, his face showed shock, and his hands trembled violently!

"Amitabha!"

He chanted a Buddha Name with utmost piety and knelt on the ground!

Inside the dilapidated temple, a dense sound of sutra chanting faintly arose!

In the Southern Continent.

The Zha Tian Bang branch, which was originally the entrance to the Southern Continent Secret Realm, had now developed into a prosperous area.

Meanwhile, the former site of the Southern Continent Secret Realm remained empty.

On this day, under a clear sky with ten thousand miles of visibility, a slight distortion suddenly appeared in the Void at the former site of the Southern Continent Secret Realm, causing ripples to form.

A few breaths later, a graceful figure stepped out from within.

Her long hair fluttered, her face was stunning yet cold, possessing an unrestrained and indifferent temperament; her loose Daoist Robe could not conceal her proud figure.

This was a stunning Daoist nun!

Silently and without a trace, she walked out from the Void at the former site of the Southern Continent Secret Realm; her gaze scanned the surroundings, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly, seemingly unaccustomed to and somewhat displeased by the changes in the environment around her.

No one noticed her presence, nor did she seek anyone out; her beautiful eyes chose a direction and never shifted away from it.

"Supreme Treasure, I have come to fetch you; are you... still there?"

She murmured softly, carrying a hint of nervousness and unease yet full of anticipation, her body transforming into a Light Stream as she swept toward the distance.

That... was the direction of Five Elements Mountain!

At this very moment, inside Buried Immortal Valley.

Xu Que and his companions had already broken through the Restrictions at the entrance and stepped inside.

According to what Little Yellow had said, when the Sea Race Vanguard Army first arrived, they caught the Eastern Wasteland Cultivators completely off guard; afterward, most of the Eastern Wasteland Cultivators in the surrounding area rushed to provide support, only to fall into an ambush, resulting in a disastrous defeat with heavy casualties, forcing them to finally flee into Buried Immortal Valley!

The Sea Race Vanguard Army treated Buried Immortal Valley as a Holy Land, with no one daring to pursue them inside, while the Eastern Wasteland Cultivators directly set up Restrictions at the entrance, allowing them to barely survive.

But at this moment, after Xu Que and his party stepped into Buried Immortal Valley, they immediately felt a suppressing aura rush toward them.

Although no danger could be detected for the time being, everything around them made everyone feel suppressed, even suffocated.

"Something's wrong; this place... is far more complicated than This Seat imagined!" Mo Junchen said in a deep voice, his expression extremely grave as if facing a great enemy; even someone as powerful as him felt very uncomfortable here.

"Damn it, This Divine Venerable smells blood again! At least tens of thousands of people died nearby, and they died not long ago!" Er Gouzi opened his mouth and cursed loudly, very excited.

Duan Jiude looked around, his face changing dramatically: "Hell, the mountain formations here have changed; this is completely a huge Forge, and all living beings will become sacrifices."

After speaking, he quickly took out that ancient Guiqiao, shook it clatter-clatter a few times, and flung out several bronze ancient coins; then his entire face twisted into a bitter expression as he looked at Xu Que and said, "A situation of nine deaths and one life!"
