Vision City.

"So, your Baihong Sect also has similar rare objects?" Zi Yan said.

"Well, there are indeed. Our hidden sects have a thousand-year heritage, and we have survived many crises by relying on those rare objects. However, rare objects cannot be used lightly. Using them will inevitably come at a price, unless we also have true master warriors..." Zhou Dianya sighed.

"If you have a master warrior, I'm afraid you won't need to use any rare items."

Zi Yan paused and said, "At this point, do you still want to hide the truth?"

Zi Yan was indeed a little curious. She was not completely unfamiliar with the hidden sects before. She had some information about the channels of the secret guards after so many years of collection.

But this time, she couldn't find out any information at all. Those hidden sects have always kept hiding as their main purpose, but now they are gathered in Yuanjing City. No one knows what they want to do.

Yuanjing City is indeed related to the ancient witch sect, which is why the Southern Witch Cult came here.

But what does it have to do with those hidden sects?

"Lord Zi, you are also a martial artist and a first-rate martial artist. Have you noticed some changes in the world recently?" Zhou Dianya said.

"Changes? It seems that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has become thicker." Zi Yan of course knew what she meant. This kind of change in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth cannot be concealed at all. Any martial artist who has cultivated internal skills to a certain level will have some sense of it.

"Yes, we martial artists have all noticed that the difficulties in practicing internal skills in the past have been solved easily recently."

"This is a sign of the revival of spiritual energy." Zhou Dianya said.

"Is there anything special about this? I've read historical records that spiritual energy has become denser more than once. During the Southern Dynasty, there was a long period of time when the concentration of spiritual energy was several times higher than it is now. At that time, many great masters who surpassed the masters emerged, so it's not too surprising."

Zi Yan said slowly.

“Not only a grandmaster, there was also a Martial Saint at that time. The Martial Saint was known as a demigod and was very strong.” Zhou Dianya took a deep breath and said seriously.

"Has there really been a Martial Saint?" Zi Yan was surprised.

It can be said that most of the warriors in the martial arts world have never heard of a martial saint at this level. Although a grandmaster rarely appears, many people have at least heard of him.

"They did appear in the past, and there was more than one. But history was suddenly interrupted. If it weren't for the records within our secluded sect, the world would have no idea about it." Zhou Dianya said.

"What about now? Are those Martial Saints still alive?" Zi Yan asked solemnly.

She had seen the Martial Saint warrior in ancient books. This was no ordinary warrior. It could be said that a warrior who had cultivated to the Martial Saint realm was no longer an ordinary person. His flesh, blood, and soul had all become extraordinary, and his lifespan was very different from that of ordinary people.

That fire beast, which has not yet truly reached the realm of Martial Saint, has been able to live for over a thousand years without food or water. As long as its spirit, soul, blood and flesh are not exhausted, it is still unknown how long it can live.

The Southern Dynasty is only about 150 years old from now. If nothing unexpected happens, those martial saints and even grand masters should still be alive.

"It's hard to say. That period of history has been erased, and there is no official record of it. So, no one knows what happened back then." Zhou Dianya shook his head.

"What does it have to do with the present?" Zi Yan raised her eyebrows.

"It is related. The spiritual energy has become thicker this time. There is a prophecy in our hidden sect. A thousand years ago, a great man predicted that a white water and red tide will appear a thousand years later." Zhou Dianya said. "What is a white water and red tide?" Zi Yan had never heard of it.

"It is a special spiritual tide that will cause the hidden spiritual water to erupt from underground, forming a flood. The spiritual water solidified in the mountains will also melt and gather together. We judge that this time it probably appeared from the direction of the Ten Thousand Miles Mountain. The first city to be hit is Yuanjing City." Zhou Dianya said.

"Is it scary? White water and red tide!" Zi Yan pursed her lips and said.

"During the Southern Dynasty's spiritual energy explosion, a red tide also occurred, but the predictions were far inferior to this one."

Zhou Dianya took a deep breath and said, "This time the white water red tide will be terrible, and many, many people will die."

“If that’s the case, why didn’t anyone from the secluded sect inform the imperial court?” Zi Yan wondered. It was hard for her to understand why such a huge disaster was about to happen and they were still concealing it.

“For ordinary people, this is a disaster, but for us warriors, this may be an adventure. The appearance of the white water and red tide will roll out those buried ancient treasures. The natural treasures hidden in the mountains and caves will also appear with the white water and red tide. This is the opportunity for us warriors to break through to the Grandmaster level or even a higher level.” Zhou Dianya said.

"I see. Then how many hidden sects will come to Bozhou?"

Things are beyond Zi Yan's control. Without sufficient military force, it will be difficult for her to deal with the impending crisis alone.

"Many, many, at least dozens of them. Fortunately, this time the Baishui Red Tide is limited to the area of ​​Bozhou, so only some nearby sects will come. Sects farther away may not care about the affairs here." Zhou Dianya said.

"Why is that? Why don't the sects far away come? Don't they know?" Zi Yan said.

"We, the secluded sects, each have our own range of activities and generally do not cross the border easily. There may be other opportunities in other places, but if they appear, we will not go there. This tacit understanding has remained largely unbroken for thousands of years. There were some that were broken, but in the end they were all besieged and perished." Zhou Dianya explained.

"Well, we have to cooperate sincerely. Opportunities are another matter, but at least we have to figure out the origin of the whitewater red tide and the possible consequences."

Zi Yan said slowly.

To achieve this, she needs to mobilize the power of the court. If time is tight, how to deal with it next is not something she can decide alone.

"To this day, we in the Baihong Sect have no way out. The Baihong Sect is willing to cooperate with the imperial court."

Zhou Dianya gritted her teeth.

This sudden incident made it impossible for them to hide anymore, and they were exposed to Zi Yan.

"That's good, your choice won't be wrong."

"Think about it first. Which hidden sects can we try to win over, and which ones we can't win over? It is impossible for them to cooperate with the court." Zi Yan said.

Of course, she just wanted to get some preliminary information from Zhou Dianya. As for the details, she still had to rely on further investigation and evidence collection.

"Okay, I will provide a list when I get back." Zhou Dianya nodded.

"Move this person away as soon as possible and leave this place."

Zi Yan said that she decided to contact Nie Xinran, the current mayor of Yuanjing City, to move Han Wu Pavilion away and take Zhou Dianya with her.
