I awakened my god-tier passive skill early on and took off instantly

“Pfft!”

Countless sword energies suddenly descended from the sky, piercing and shattering all the demonic beasts below, including the fifth-level demonic beast Flame Falcon and the sixth-level demonic beast Violet Scale Python.

“It’s the Founder!”

The Seven Luminaries Sect disciples guarding the city walls, who were trapped here, felt a surge of excitement upon seeing the tall figure floating in mid-air.

“Great, Pure Yang Zhenren is here!”

The others were also excited, finally, the crisis was resolved.

“Greetings, Pure Yang Zhenren!”

The City Lord of Yuhua City breathed a sigh of relief. After bowing, he looked at the devastation on the ground and then at the two fifth and sixth-level demonic beasts that he could not match.

They were instantly annihilated.

He sighed inwardly at the terrifying strength of a Nascent Soul powerhouse.

A decision vaguely formed in his heart.

Seeing the demonic beasts annihilated, Lu Xin did not stay, but continued towards the northwest.

With his divine sense covering the area, he found wildlands that were previously uninhabited now teeming with wandering demonic beasts, which he annihilated upon encountering.

Finally, after a little over half an hour, he arrived at Black Qu City.

The scene here was completely different from when he first arrived.

All he saw was devastation, the city walls had collapsed, and corpses were scattered everywhere, including those of humans and demonic beasts.

“It seems that this group of demonic beasts is indeed organized.”

Seeing this scene, Lu Xin thought to himself. Usually, humans and demonic beasts preyed on each other, but low-level demonic beasts lacked intelligence and were driven by primitive desires, so they would not leave behind so many corpses.

After staying for a while and finding nothing else amiss, he turned his gaze towards the Sea of Shifting Sands and flew away without hesitation.

…

Somewhere in the Sea of Shifting Sands.

“Bai Sheng, who allowed you to act on your own?” A figure shrouded in black robes questioned.

Beside him was a peculiar man with white hair all over his forehead. He looked relaxed, “Ying Chi, you are becoming more and more timid.”

Ying Chi snorted coldly, “The elders instructed us to act cautiously before we left, and to only investigate the situation. Yet you have repeatedly exposed our tracks. What are your intentions?”

“What do you know!”

Bai Sheng also snorted coldly, “I just wanted to probe the strength of this Dragon Abyss Empire. Besides, I didn’t expose our tracks.”

“You directly destroyed a human city, and that’s just probing the strength?”

Ying Chi said angrily, “Don’t think I don’t know what your Shadow Moon Demon Wolf Clan is planning. Aren’t you just trying to seize territory in advance?”

Since he had been exposed, Bai Sheng did not hide it. He sneered and said, “Your Shadow Demon Fox Clan occupies the most territory in the Lan Cang Region. It’s only natural for us to occupy a little here in advance.”

“You…”

Ying Chi was so angered by his stupidity that he couldn’t speak. After a while, he retorted:

“Then you can’t do it so early. You also know that this Sea of Shifting Sands is more mysterious than we imagined, and the elders’ progress is being delayed.

Moreover, you know that we received a report from below that there is a terrifying human Nascent Soul expert nearby.

If he is attracted here, and the elders are not here, how can we resist?”

Bai Sheng’s eyes flickered upon hearing this. On closer thought, he was indeed too impatient, but he still stubbornly said:

“What’s the panic? The Sea of Shifting Sands is so big, and this place is hidden. Even if that Nascent Soul expert discovers something amiss, he won’t be able to find this place.”

“It better be!”

However, just as he finished speaking, a terrifying aura enveloped the area.

“Not good!”

The two demons’ expressions changed. They wanted to escape, but found that the demonic power in their bodies was suppressed and could not be used.

“As expected, it’s the demon race!”

A voice rang out, and then a young man slowly landed.

This person was Lu Xin. Originally, the Sea of Shifting Sands was quite large, and he was aimlessly searching, but many demonic beasts were running in this direction.

He followed the source and found this place.

In front of him were only two fifth-level little demons, who were now prostrating on the ground under his pressure.

“Who are you? How did you appear here?”

Bai Sheng asked with a look of fear.

“Weren’t you just talking about me?”

Lu Xin chuckled, sucked him into his hand, and then pointed at his forehead. He had naturally learned the Soul Searching Secret Art long ago.

Soon, a surge of information poured into his mind.

The ten demon clans of the Western Wilderness joined forces to invade from the Lan Cang Region, which was adjacent to the Western Wilderness. They had now occupied the Lan Cang Region and then divided their forces.

The Shadow Demon Fox and Shadow Moon Demon Wolf clans were crossing the Sea of Shifting Sands towards the Eastern Flower Region.

However, the mystery of the Sea of Shifting Sands exceeded their expectations. Whether they encountered danger or found opportunities, the main force of the two clans was progressing slowly.

They only sent some scouts ahead to investigate the situation.

Then, Lu Xin obtained the information he wanted most. The highest cultivation level of the Shadow Demon Fox and Shadow Moon Demon Wolf clans was the God Transformation stage.

The vanguard was led by a dozen Nascent Soul experts.

The God Transformation Great Demons were still chasing and suppressing the fleeing human God Transformation experts in the Lan Cang Region, so they would not come over in a short time.

“It seems that I have to improve my strength as soon as possible!”

Upon learning the information, Lu Xin felt a sense of urgency.

Currently, the demon race would not be able to come over in a short time, so he still had time.

Moreover, this matter was not just his own business.

The demon race’s invasion would affect the entire Eastern Flower Region, and the first to bear the brunt would be the Dragon Abyss Empire, which occupied most of the region.

He believed that they would be more anxious than him after learning this news. After all, he was an outsider with shallow roots and could leave whenever he wanted.

But the other forces had been rooted here for many years.

They had many medicine fields and mines, and were deeply entrenched.

Thinking of this, Lu Xin killed the little demon in his hand who had become an idiot, and then left with the remaining one.

Since he did not kill the demonic beasts on the way, his return trip was very fast. In just a few hours, he returned to the Seven Luminaries Sect.

“Founder, is this a demon race?”

Murong Xin looked at the Core Formation-level demon race that Lu Xin was carrying in his hand, swallowed, and thought that this was a big trouble. As expected, there were demons.

Lu Xin nodded and instructed Murong Xin to send people to spread the news he had obtained.

Murong Xin’s expression changed drastically upon hearing this, and he did not dare to delay.

Soon, news that was no less shocking than Lu Xin’s shattering of the Blood River Ancestor’s body quickly swept through the entire empire, causing tremors among the major forces.

The elders of the Three Sects and Four Clans, such as the Thousand Snow Sect, the Violet Cloud Sect, and the Mount Tai Sword Sect, gathered together to discuss.

Thousand Snow Sect Main Hall.

“What? The Lan Cang Region has been occupied by the demon race, and they are about to cross the Sea of Shifting Sands to come here?”

The elders were surprised and skeptical.

The Sect Master of the Thousand Snow Sect said, “The news was sent by Pure Yang Zhenren. He went deep into the Sea of Shifting Sands and captured two Core Formation demon races. He learned this through soul searching.

He is keeping one, saying that he is waiting for us to verify it.”

“Then the news should be accurate.”

An elder said solemnly, “With Pure Yang Zhenren’s strength, he wouldn’t be joking with us.”

Another elder added, “A few days ago, I heard that a city on the edge of the Sand Sea was breached by demonic beasts, and some people escaped.

At that time, I thought it was an ordinary beast tide. I didn’t expect there to be the shadow of the demon race behind it.”

“Then what should we do now?” someone asked.

The Sect Master of the Thousand Snow Sect said, “To be safe, first send someone to inform Martial Uncle and the Old Ancestor.”

Blood Spirit Gate Main Hall.

The atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

Of the Three Sects and Four Clans, the Blood Spirit Gate would be the first to be affected by the demon race’s invasion. No, now there was a fifth sect at the front.

However, this fifth sect was at odds with them. The Old Ancestor had not yet decided whether to avenge Martial Uncle Blood River.

As a result, the demon race’s invasion came.

So they were torn.

If they contributed, they wanted to watch the Seven Luminaries Sect be destroyed.

If they did not contribute, this would affect the entire Dragon Abyss Empire, and they would be resisted by the forces of the entire Dragon Abyss Empire.

Moreover, they would be next after the Seven Luminaries Sect was destroyed.

“Everyone, please speak your mind,” the Sect Master of the Blood Spirit Gate said solemnly.

The elder dressed as a scholar asked, “What are the Old Ancestor’s plans?”
