"Report! A large void anomaly has appeared near Tai Lake in Liang Country. Profound Creek Valley has already destroyed the void passage before the arrival of the Demon Sect."

"Report! A massive number of demonic cultivators from the Blood Refining Demon Sect have appeared in Jin Country and have already been repelled by Master Guu and the Guardian Dao Alliance."

"Report! A Nascent Soul Demon Monarch from the Ghostly Palace has descended upon Wuu Country’s Beast King Valley and has been subdued with the joint efforts of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Saint and the Guardian Dao Alliance’s Cold Crow Ascendant. The two seniors are on their way back now."

...

Just at that moment.

Mo Lingwei, in a long black gauze dress, hurriedly walked in and then respectfully saluted Qin Ming, who was seated at the head.

"Lord Island Master, the demonic invasion within the four countries is exactly as you predicted, but there are still many loose demonic elements that have joined forces with the demonic cultivators within the Beast Roar Mountain Range."

"Should we organize cultivators to pursue them while we have the support of the Demon Race and the Guardian Dao Alliance, to strike at the arrogance of the demonic path?"

Qin Ming held a jade scroll, sipped some tea, then nodded carelessly and said, "Proceed as you think best."

"Yes!"

Mo Lingwei did not expect Qin Ming to agree so readily.

Qin Ming’s eyes flickered slightly. Naturally, he was indifferent because the key figure in this invasion was about to arrive.

Soon it would be his turn to perform.

Rumble!

Just then.

While Mo Lingwei was still puzzled, there was a violent explosion outside.

Her Golden Core Divine Thought naturally perceived what was happening outside.

In the sky beyond Wangyue Island, three pitch-black void vortices suddenly appeared without any warning, expanding like black holes, twisting and turning.

Crackle!

The three vortices converged rapidly, instantly merging into one, and suddenly a ten-zhang-wide void fissure exploded open.

One could even see the endless abyss of the void inside, along with flashes of thunderous astral wind.

Immediately.

A surge of immense demonic qi gushed out like a flood from a broken dam, beginning to taint the surroundings.

The lake water instantly turned pitch black, and a large number of fish and shrimp floated to the surface belly-up.

As the demonic qi erupted, the spiritual qi in the void began to tremble violently.

Suddenly.

A violent and icy divine thought swept across Wangyue Island, seeing through the Tier Four Defense Array as if it were nothing.

Next, amidst the billowing demonic qi, a burly figure walked out, whose overwhelming spiritual pressure caused all the cultivators present to tremble with fear.

It felt as though, if he looked at them, they would immediately perish.

Mo Lingwei’s divine thought recognized this person, and her face turned pale: "Demon Monarch Qishang!"

In the intel from the Southern Wilderness and the Guardian Dao Alliance, there were images of this Demon Monarch.

A mid-stage Nascent Soul Demon Monarch personally descended upon Wangyue Lake, and even she nearly lost control of her heart spirit.

However, when she looked towards Qin Ming, she found that he was as calm and composed as ever.

Master Tianji also hurriedly came in from outside, speaking nervously to Qin Ming:

"Fellow Daoist Qin, something terrible has happened!"

"Demon Monarch Qishang is at our doorstep."

In the next moment.

Qin Ming stood up, looked outside, and said lightly, "Demon Monarch Qishang, hm? Let me go out and meet him."

"You all find somewhere to hide."

Upon hearing this, Mo Lingwei almost thought she had misheard.

Master Tianji was also momentarily stunned, but then he remembered that last time, Qin Ming managed to escape unscathed from Demon Monarch Qishang. Is it possible he has some means yet to be revealed?

Just then. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Demon Monarch Qishang’s powerful voice rang out across Wangyue Lake from outside:

"The Saint Ancestor’s arrival is the trend of the times!"

"Wangyue child, come out and meet your demise at this seat’s hands!"

...
