My classmates chose martial arts and fantasy, but I chose the prehistoric world.

In the third month after Wanfa Island was occupied by the Underworld King Sect, the entire coastal area underwent a complete transformation.

Meng Chuan led Yan Qing and Tapa to rest on that nameless island for seven days. Once the three of them had recovered their injuries and magical power, they prepared to detour to the depths of the Divine Realm Continent, away from the battle zone between the Myriad Laws Hall and the Underworld Sect.

However, before they could even set off, the war swept across the entire coastal area like wildfire.

First, several medium-sized islands closest to Wanfa Island—Bibo Island, Xingluo Island, and Tianlan Island—were attacked by the Underworld King Sect on the same day.

The Wanfadian branches on the three islands sent out distress signals almost simultaneously, but by the time reinforcements arrived, the three islands had already been completely slaughtered.

Immediately afterwards, the Hades Sect's fleet bypassed the main defenses of the Myriad Laws Hall and launched a surprise attack on several important mines and herb gardens of the Myriad Laws Hall in the coastal area.

Without a high-ranking saint to oversee those areas, they were utterly powerless to resist the surprise attack from the elite forces of the Underworld Sect.

The Hall of Ten Thousand Laws would certainly not sit idly by and wait for its demise.

After initially being on the defensive, the Wanfa Hall quickly organized a counterattack.

Three high-ranking saints led an elite force in a surprise attack on a key stronghold of the Underworld Sect in the northern part of the coastal region.

Black Wind Island.

That battle lasted for seven days and seven nights, and finally ended in victory for the Hall of Myriad Laws. The Underworld Sect's garrison on Black Wind Island was completely wiped out, and all members of the Underworld Sect, including a high-level saint, were killed!

However, the Hall of Myriad Laws also paid a heavy price—the high-ranking saint who led the raid was seriously injured in the battle and almost lost his cultivation level.

At this point, the two major forces had completely broken off all pretense of civility!

Large-scale battles, small-scale skirmishes, harassment operations against supply lines, assassinations of mid-level and key personnel...

All sorts of battles are taking place throughout the coastal area.

Every day, saints fall, and every moment, blood stains the seas red.

Those small and medium-sized forces and small gathering places of independent cultivators who originally lived in the gap between the Wanfa Palace and the Underworld King Sect were even more miserable.

The aftershocks of the battle between the two major forces could easily destroy a small island and crush a group of low-level cultivators who didn't have time to escape.

Meng Chuan and his two companions originally planned to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible, but on their way out, they witnessed several brutal battles.

On one occasion, they saw two mid-level saints fighting in the sky above the sea. The battle was so fierce that the sky darkened and the sea for thousands of miles around was stirred up with huge waves.

One of them was an elder of the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws, and the other was a protector of the Underworld Sect. The two were evenly matched and neither could defeat the other. In the end, they both fell into the sea exhausted and were rescued by their respective subordinates.

On another occasion, they passed by an island that had been occupied by the Underworld Sect, just as a small team from the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws came to launch a sneak attack.

The squad was small in number, but each member was fearless and managed to tear a gap in the Underworld Sect's defenses, killing the Underworld Sect's garrison commander on the island.

But the price was—the entire squad was wiped out, with no survivors!

The scene that impressed Meng Chuan the most happened when they were about to leave the edge of the coastal area.

That evening, the setting sun dyed the sea a blood red. Meng Chuan and his two companions were flying at low altitude when they suddenly heard deafening shouts of battle coming from ahead.

They kept their distance and hid behind a huge reef to observe. They saw that about 100,000 miles ahead on the sea, two large armies were engaged in fierce combat.

On one side was the Wanfa Hall's team, numbering about three hundred people. Leading them were two mid-level saints, and the disciples below were at least at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level.

The other side was the Hades Sect's team, with a similar number of members, also led by two mid-level Saints.

The two sides engaged in a fierce battle on the sea, their laws intertwining and colliding, illuminating half the sky with vibrant colors.

The seawater evaporated and condensed under the impact of the laws, forming strange mists that enveloped the entire battlefield.

Meng Chuan witnessed firsthand how a mid-level Saint from the Hall of Myriad Laws was pierced through the chest by a mid-level Saint from the Underworld Sect wielding a black spear. The power of the laws surged into his body, instantly annihilating his life force.

Even from a distance of a thousand miles away, the dying roar of that mid-level saint of the Hall of Myriad Laws still made Meng Chuan's eardrums ache.

Meanwhile, a mid-level Saint from the Underworld Sect had his arm blown off by two lower-level Saints from the Hall of Myriad Laws, who used self-destruction as the price, and he was forced to retreat from the battlefield in a sorry state.

That battle ultimately ended with both sides suffering heavy losses.

The Hall of Myriad Laws lost one mid-level Saint and more than thirty disciples, while the Underworld Sect also lost one mid-level Saint and more than forty disciples.

Both sides retreated, leaving behind a devastated sea and floating corpses.

Meng Chuan hid behind the reef, looking at the sea stained red with blood, and remained silent for a long time.

Yan Qing and Tapa also looked solemn.

This is the war in the world of gods!

There is no right or wrong, no justice, only interests and survival.

"Let's go."

Meng Chuan withdrew his gaze and said in a low voice, "This is not something we can get involved in."

Yan Qing and Tapa nodded, and the three continued on their way.

However, just one day before they were about to leave the coastal area and enter the heart of the Divine Realm Continent, Meng Chuan overheard some news in a market town on a neutral island.

"Have you heard? The headquarters of the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws has issued a bounty!"

"A bounty board? What's with the bounty?"

"Bounties have been offered for those troublesome members of the Underworld Sect! Not only are the bounties generous for each high-ranking Saint, but even those mid-ranking Saints who caused the Myriad Laws Hall heavy losses—each one has been given an extremely high reward!"

How tall is it?

"Hehe, you'll be shocked when I tell you—take that 'Black Gun' Zhao Wuji from the Underworld Sect for example, the reward offered by the Hall of Myriad Laws is three drops of Myriad Laws Soul Fusion Liquid plus one Great Dao Spirit Fusion Pill!"

"Wow—such a high bounty?!"

"That's right! And that 'Poisonous Scorpion' Liu Rushi, the bounty is one Six Harmonies Condensing Dao Powder plus two Great Dao Fusion Spirit Pills!"

"This is insane... The Hall of Ten Thousand Laws has really gone all out!"

"Nonsense, the Underworld Sect has also put bounties on several ruthless figures from the Myriad Laws Hall, with ridiculously high rewards. Both sides are bloodthirsty; who cares about the consequences?"

Meng Chuan's steps suddenly stopped.

Myriad Laws Soul-Melting Liquid.

The Great Dao merges with the Spirit Elixir.

The six directions condense and disperse.

He was very familiar with the names of two of the rare and powerful medicines—they were among the three medicines he had obtained from the ruins earlier!

Each one can greatly reduce the difficulty of law fusion, and is a treasure that a mid-level saint would dream of!

And now, the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws is actually offering these rare and precious medicines as a reward.

Meng Chuan's heart began to beat faster involuntarily.

He originally only wanted to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible, cultivate in peace, and wait until he was strong enough before searching for Houtu and exploring the divine realm.

but now……

A bold idea quietly took root in his mind.

He gripped the token identifying him as a guest elder of the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws at his waist.

He obtained this token after deciphering the seventy-seventh stele in the Forest of Ten Thousand Laws Stele.

With this token, he becomes a guest elder of the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws, enjoying some of the privileges and benefits of an elder.

Although Wanfa Island has been destroyed, Wanfa Palace still exists.

The headquarters of the Hall of Ten Thousand Laws is still there.
