That day, he remembered that after crushing the jade talisman in his hand, he felt a dizzying sensation, and when he regained his footing, he found himself in a giant bird's nest...

A series of chirping birds brought him back from his reverie. He found a fledgling bird with its feathers still growing right next to him, flapping its wings and looking extremely fierce.

Although it was just a fledgling bird, it was about the same size as a big white goose. Just as I was about to teach this naked white goose how to be a proper bird.

"Chirp—chirp—"

Two sharp bird cries came from the sky, and Qin Wu immediately covered his ears. He felt as if someone had inserted a nail into his ear.

Two giant azure birds flew swiftly over from a short distance away—half-step Grandmasters! And two of them!

Qin Wu was terrified and quickly slid down the tree trunk. The two bluebirds must have thought he was going to harm the fledgling, and if they were still on the tree, they would surely die a very rhythmic death.

If you land on the ground, you might have a chance to survive by using the terrain.

Sure enough, just as Qin Wu landed, the two large birds rushed back. The female bird flew back to the nest, while the male bird flapped its wings and flew towards Qin Wu.

Fortunately, the forest was dense, and the bluebird's large size made it difficult for it to fly, so Qin Wu used the terrain to keep escaping.

For three days in a row, the bluebird circled above his head, swooping down whenever it found an opportunity. Finally, when Qin Wu was about a hundred kilometers away from the nest, the bluebird let out a long cry in the air, as if warning Qin Wu not to enter its territory again, and then flapped its wings and flew away gracefully.

Qin Wu was completely disoriented at this point; he couldn't find a single similar place on the map issued by the Armed Forces Bureau.

He looked up at the sky and muttered to himself, "What kind of hellish place is this?"

Qin Wu's death caused a sensation in Dawn City for a while, but then things gradually calmed down.

After all, people die almost every day in Dawn City, and they have long been used to it, at most expressing regret for the fall of a genius.

At this moment, Chen Baima was listening to his subordinates' report.

After Wu Huida left, a middle-aged man named Wang Qing took his place.

Chen Baima looked at Wang Qing in front of him. He had a very ordinary square face with a long scar on his face that stretched from his eyebrow to the corner of his mouth. Every time he saw Wang Qing, he always had a serious and unsmiling look.

He suddenly felt a pang of nostalgia for Wu Huida. Although the old man was a bit frivolous, he was just the kind of guy he liked.

Wang Qing's expressionless face spoke like a robot: "Reporting to the garrison commander, this month our side has lost a total of seven Gang Jin cultivators, more than four hundred Hua Jin cultivators, and countless Nei Jin cultivators."

22 “Recently, there haven’t been any major clashes between us and Tubang City. The main casualties have come from Nanyue City.”

Chen Baima frowned and asked with a puzzled look, "Can the people from Nanyue City still cause trouble?"

Wang Qing pondered for a moment, then said expressionlessly, "According to the information we have obtained, the higher-ups of Nan Yue City are furious about the destruction of the spiritual vein. They have formed a special team, most of whom are Gang Jin experts, and the weakest are at the peak of Hua Jin. They specialize in intercepting and killing people from our Dawn City near the Dark Night Forest, and they always leave as soon as they make contact, making them extremely difficult to deal with."

Chen Baima sighed and said with a headache, "I understand, you can go now."

If Qin Wu were here, he would surely be able to come up with a good way to deal with the people of Nanyue City.

What Chen Baima didn't know was that Nan Yue City had suffered almost irreparable damage due to Qin Wu's two intrusions.

Therefore, the two grandmasters believed that the defense system of Nanyue City needed a major reform to prevent similar incidents from happening again.

The first thing to do was to repair the underground drainage pipes. The outer city was basically destroyed, so a new drainage system was built. After the drainage system was completed, very few people could enter through the pipes anymore, and some pipes in the inner city were blocked.

The number of guards has been increased in every mine, especially in the high-grade spirit mines in the inner city, where there are guards every three steps and sentries every five steps. This is the foundation of Nanyue City, and there must be no mistakes.

The most important change is the significant alteration to the identity documents of the citizens of Nanyue City. Previously, proof of identity was simply a piece of paper bearing the Nanyue City logo, containing only basic information and official documentation.

The certificates now include each person's portrait, serial number, and special anti-counterfeiting features.

If Qin Wu saw this, he would surely be amazed.

Because of its existence, it has promoted the development of civilization in Nanyue City. A good identity verification method is very necessary, which is very beneficial to the stability of Nanyue City and greatly increases the city's control over ordinary people.

If Qin Wu were to meet the city lord of Nanyue City, he would say with great satisfaction, "You should thank me properly. It was I who made Nanyue City realize its shortcomings, and it is by realizing its shortcomings that Nanyue City has become stronger."

Upon hearing of this, Tubang City, located thousands of miles away, sent a special envoy to learn about Nanyue City's identity verification methods, intending to implement them in Tubang City upon their return.

After all, Tubang City doesn't want a repeat of the events that happened in Nanyue City.

After Qin Wu mysteriously disappeared in Nan Yue City that day, the tree demon and the two grandmasters were enraged and formed a team of Gang Jin experts to roam around Shuguang City. Each of them had a portrait of Qin Wu in their hands. Whenever Qin Wu appeared, they would kill him with lightning speed. As a result, Qin Wu seemed to have vanished into thin air, and the other martial artists in Shuguang City took the blame for him.

Lu Acai rubbed her temples, saying with a headache, "We already have fewer Gang Jin experts than other planes. Their shamelessness is really a headache. We can't just stay home all the time."

Chen Baima sighed and said helplessly, "Right now, the only thing we can do is to keep the martial artists below the Transformation Realm away from leaving the city as much as possible. Once they relax their guard, we can find an opportunity to launch a big attack and hurt them so badly that they won't be so arrogant anymore."

"Let's do it this way for now," Lu Acai said wearily.

Although there haven't been any major battles recently, Lu Acai has had a constant feeling of unease, as if something big is about to happen.

At their level, every sudden impulse must have a reason, but this time there was no warning whatsoever.

Chapter 352: Crisis (3)

The gray-clad, white-haired man sat atop the crowd, looking at them with an indifferent expression. Although his face appeared young, his eyes revealed a sense of vicissitude.

He sat there quietly for a moment before speaking, "I believe you all have a general idea of ​​why I've gathered you all here."

Thanos Adelaide of the Eternals said in a deep voice, "But because of the sudden loss of the sun's light, we Eternals, who have dominated the universe for so many years, have never seen such a strange celestial phenomenon."

The Kryptonian chieftain Alexandra also spoke up, "Akameiko, just tell me the truth, don't keep me in suspense."

Chi Mingzi sat upright in the chair in the center, like a statue. He sighed slightly and said, "That's right, it was the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth yesterday. After the sun's light disappeared, I felt that the spiritual energy in heaven and earth seemed to have increased a little, although not by much. And today, I feel that the spiritual energy in heaven and earth has become even more concentrated."

Adelaide said doubtfully, "If the spiritual energy in the world increases, wouldn't that be a good thing? Our cultivation level can increase even faster!"

A blond, blue-eyed man nodded in agreement: "I also think that an increase in spiritual energy is a very good thing."

Alexandra stroked her chin, a thoughtful expression on her face: "Could this anomaly be related to the interdimensional beings?"

Chi Mingzi looked at Alexandra and nodded slightly, saying, "Yes, everyone knows that the spiritual energy in the other plane is a hundred times more concentrated than in our universe. And the concentration of spiritual energy here is slowly increasing. There is only one possibility: the barrier between us and the other plane is weakening, and the spiritual energy in the other plane is dissipating into Earth. Perhaps one day they will no longer need to use the Xuan Guang Channel and can directly descend into our world."

As soon as Akamiko finished speaking, everyone's faces showed disbelief.

"What should we do? If the beings from other planes really attack, Earth's strength is simply insufficient to stop them."

"Perhaps it's not as bad as I think, it's just a simple increase in spiritual energy."

"Sigh, I really hope it's just as you say, but what that person said is most likely true."

"When that day really comes, the Earth will not be far from destruction."

Seeing that everyone looked worried, Chi Mingzi cleared his throat and said, "Don't be so pessimistic. Judging from the current rate of spiritual energy growth, we still have time to prepare. The growth of spiritual energy is a double-edged sword. Although it has disadvantages, it also has advantages. In a short period of time, our martial artists' strength can be raised to another level."

Alexandra's face was full of worry. Their tribe was small in number, and if the plane people really attacked, they might be wiped out. He said anxiously, "Does Chimingzi have any plans? Why don't you tell us?"

Immediately, everyone's eyes were fixed on Akamiko, and their faces showed hope.

Chi Mingzi smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "What can I do? At this moment, all I can do is help all the martial artists improve their strength as quickly as possible. The main purpose of bringing you all here today is to prepare you mentally so that you won't panic when the time comes."

Everyone shook their heads in disappointment upon hearing this, because they knew how terrifying the dimensional beings were. Although they could still hold them off now, it was because they were taking advantage of the passage's location.

She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

At this moment, in a secret room in the capital city.

Wu Huida was sitting cross-legged on a futon. Around him on the ground were dozens of spirit stones and several bottles of pills of unknown purpose.

These were all spoils of war he obtained while attacking the towns surrounding Nanyue City with Leng Ruxiang. The reason he told Chen Baima that day that his cultivation level had loosened slightly and that he wanted to return to seclusion was not an excuse to leave the plane. He genuinely felt that after being stuck at the peak of the Transformation Realm for more than ten years, he finally had a sense of breaking through.

Wu Hui closed her eyes and slowly reached a state of emptiness and clarity, then began to circulate her internal energy, which gradually increased in speed.

"Boom~"

Suddenly, a soft sound came from Wu Hui Da's body, and then his aura continued to rise. The spirit stone beside him slowly flew into the air, and the spiritual energy inside it quickly dissipated. About half an hour later, Wu Hui Da's aura gradually stabilized, and he formed Gang Jin.

Wu Hui opened her eyes, her gaze revealing a mixture of confusion and surprise, her expression quite complex.

He had been at the peak of the Transformation Realm for over a decade. During those years, he had spent countless hours trying to break through to the Gang Realm. But just now, he had simply completed one full cycle of circulation, and the realm that had troubled him for over a decade had been broken through.

It's so simple, it feels like I'm dreaming.

But this feeling is really good!

"boom!"

"boom!"

The two figures almost turned into afterimages as they collided several times in mid-air before separating again.

Each clash produced a series of explosive sounds in the air, seemingly distorting the very air itself.

Chen Baima stared coldly at the commander of Tu Bang City. He had just taken a sword strike and, at the risk of serious injury, cut off one of the man's hands.

At this moment, the opponent's face was contorted in pain, his whole body was covered in blood, and his left arm was severed at the elbow, indicating that he had completely lost his ability to fight.

However, Chen Baima was not in much better shape. He had forcibly overdrawn his spiritual power and was now at his limit. Although he looked calm and collected, his internal injuries had reached their worst.

"call out!"

An arrow shot towards Chen Baima at a tricky angle, and just as it was about to hit Chen Baima's vitals, a figure suddenly pounced on him.

"Hmm~"

The man groaned and fell to the ground. A sharp arrow had pierced his shoulder, with only the fletching protruding.

Chen Baima frowned, looked at Wang Qing lying on the ground, and said viciously, "I'll kill you all!"
