Book of Disaster

However, Old Bai Xuan just looked at him deeply, as if he already knew what he was thinking.

"It's not that simple."

Bai Xuan said calmly.

"Have you forgotten what I told you? The North Sea Divine Guards are seriously short of manpower. If they are transferred over here, there will be a loophole in the defense. The Four Symbols Water Control and Demon Subduing Formation has already had problems, and the other three formations must not have any more mistakes."

"Besides, the Weiying Sea Clan is eyeing us covetously. I need to stay at the Divine Guards' fortress to contain the two beasts, so I can't go too far away. I was able to hunt the Divine Power Sharks before because the main array base was right behind me. The Ocean Goddess was contained by me and couldn't get around to the back."

"But if I leave the main base... once they find out, with the power of the Ocean Goddess, they can instantly destroy the entire main base and the Nine Palaces Mysterious Water Divine Array. No one can afford the consequences."

Bai Xuan said with a serious face.

Bai Qi was silent. He had some understanding of the current situation of the North Sea Divine Guards.

On the side, Old Bai Xuan looked at Bai Qi, his eyes filled with thoughts.

Given my grandson's intelligence, he must have understood why I said this to him.

Bai Qi is a top emperor-level warrior. His arrival in the North Sea is like a pillow thrown to someone when they are sleepy, for the Divine Guards, which currently do not have any extra top warriors.

But Bai Qi is his grandson, and Bai Xuan is selfish. Deep down, he doesn't want Bai Qi to go to the front line.

However, with the country at stake, Bai Xuan Lao is not the kind of person who would favor personal feelings and disregard the greater good.

This is also the reason why Elder Bai Xuan described the current situation to Bai Qi.

——He wanted to let Bai Qi make the decision himself.

On the other side, countless thoughts also flashed through Bai Qi's eyes. In just a moment, Bai Qi came back to his senses.

"So, Grandpa wants me to try to suppress it and repair the Four Symbols Water-controlling Demon-suppressing Formation there?"

"Ah."

Old Bai Xuan nodded, with a glimmer of admiration in his eyes.

He originally just wanted Bai Qi to be there to defend, but he didn't expect that Bai Qi actually wanted to directly repair the Four Symbols Water-Controlling and Demon-Subduing Formation there.

The Bai family has no achievements in formation.

But let the child give it a try, maybe there will be a pleasant surprise.

"...Of course, you have to weigh everything yourself. After all, if the Ocean Goddess takes action, and we are not close to each other, I am afraid I will not be able to provide timely support."

Taoist Bai Xuan.

"Well, leave it to me."

Bai Qi pondered:

"If it doesn't work out, I'll come back. Anyway, with my strength, I can protect myself."

"Ah."

Bai Xuan nodded, then smiled:

"However, you must not be careless. The 'Four Symbols Water Controlling Demon Subduing Formation' is an ancient formation. The materials needed to repair it are very advanced. It is not something that ordinary people can do. Moreover... the Divine Guards currently do not have the materials to repair it."

As Bai Xuan Lao spoke, his eyes never left Bai Qi, staring at him closely, as if he would immediately reject any hesitation Bai Qi had.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will act according to the situation."

Bai Qi smiled, his expression firm and confident.

What a joke! He killed the Yan family’s Pluto colossus from a thousand years ago, and he still can’t build a large formation?

And there is also the goddess of the sea. Now that he is here, he might as well see her for himself.

"it is good."

Seeing this scene, Bai Xuan was very pleased and a smile appeared on his face.

He really is worthy of being my grandson, Master Bai Xuan!

Hahaha!

……

The Wuchao area is located in the northwest direction of the Divine Guard Army's base camp, about seven or eight hundred miles away. Even with Bai Qi's current cultivation level and flying at full speed, it would take several hours to arrive.

"call!"

The wind was whistling on both sides and snowflakes were flying.

After several hours, Bai Qi followed the instructions on the map and finally stopped above a peninsula.

“Is this the Wuchao Territory?”

Bai Qi stood in the void, overlooking below, and said secretly in his heart.

Wuchao Area is a peninsula extending from the far north-west, shaped like a crescent. Although it does not cover a large area, its location is very strategic.

The Four Symbols Water-Controlling and Demon-Subduing Formation that Bai Qi was going to repair was located on this Wuchao Peninsula.

At this moment, Bai Qi was looking down from a high place.

Just one glance and Bai Qi couldn't help but frown.

“Is this… the Wuchao Territory?”

Looking around, all he saw was a desolate scene of broken walls and ruins on the Wuchao Peninsula below. It was far from the military fortress of Senluo Barrier that Bai Qi had imagined.

The outer defensive walls had collapsed, and many places were even pitch black, with thick smoke rising from time to time, making it look as if it had been through frequent wars.

Bai Qi even couldn't help but feel that this place was abandoned.

What's more, what surprised Bai Qi the most was.

Bai Qi originally thought that even if this place was destroyed, there should be at least a few North Sea Divine Guards on guard. However, looking down from the sky, the crescent-shaped peninsula base protruding into the sea was empty, without even a single person in sight.

If Grandpa hadn't repeatedly mentioned the crescent-shaped shape of this base, Bai Qi would never have made a mistake. He would even have thought that he had gone to the wrong place.

"What's going on? Why is it so dilapidated? The difference is too big!"

"Where are the defenders here?"

Bai Qi muttered to himself.

This was his first mission in the North Sea, so before coming, Bai Qi did his homework and learned about the general situation of the Wuchao Region from his grandfather and other people.

Although he knew that the situation was not optimistic after the death of the defender here, Bai Qi did not expect it to be so bad.

——This is completely different from what he knew beforehand.

"Buzz!"

The next moment, Bai Qi did not delay any longer. He flashed and landed lightly on the Wuchao Peninsula below.

"Crash!"

As soon as it landed, the tide surged and hit the cliffs of the island, making a deafening sound that filled the ears. At the same time, a cold sea breeze immediately blew in the face, carrying a strong smell of the sea and the smell of war, which smelled very uncomfortable.

——For some reason, Bai Qi felt as if a fierce battle had just taken place here.

"Let's take a look here first."

Bai Qi didn't know what was happening here, so he simply started patrolling the Wuchao Peninsula.

If Bai Qi only felt that the Wuchao Peninsula was a little dilapidated when he was in mid-air, then the feeling was even more direct and terrible when he came into contact with it in person... It could be said to be a ruin.

Looking around, the entire land was filled with traces of various battles, with potholes and devastation everywhere. There was almost no intact place, and many broken spears and halberds were scattered on the ground. Looking closely, there were traces of blood on the ground, which looked horrible.
