1040: Chapter 102: Turbulence (Three updates of ten thousand words each, subscribe please!) 1040: Chapter 102: Turbulence (Three updates of ten thousand words each, subscribe please!) Unnatural movents on Evil King Mountain in the creature-restricted zone, with news of tens of millions of beings devoured, caused a huge sensation throughout the East Profound Region.

At this mont, Jitian City, Qingyun Academy.

Such significant news naturally also reached the top echelon of the academy at the first instance, even a figure at the level of a saint appeared and began to oversee the grand situation of the academy.

Originally, a Great Power wanted to inform the dean of Qingyun Academy about this matter, but one of the academy’s magnates refused.

“Nowadays, the dean is in seclusion and should not be disturbed.

Moreover, reaching the dean’s realm and with the news of the Evil King Mountain’s movents spreading everywhere, the whole region knows it, do you think the dean wouldn’t know?”

Upon hearing this statent, the Great Power who had prepared to report was montarily stunned.

This magnate shook his head and said, “The dean’s absence indicates that the ti has not yet co, there is no need for the most powerful to appear.”

The other Great Powers suddenly understood, being figures at the heaven realm level, they were of course aware that inside Evil King Mountain there were also existences at the most powerful level, even more than one!

It is exactly for this reason, every ti Evil King Mountain erged, even with Taoxu Road overseeing the situation, it could still cause a huge blood calamity in the East Profound Region.

The existence of several heaven-tier demonic beings is precisely what caused the deep fears of the mighty ones in East Profound Region toward Evil King Mountain.

And as for the most powerful beings like the dean of Qingyun Academy, their primary focus naturally was to guard against these heaven-tier demonic beings.

Otherwise, if they were slightly distracted, those heaven-tier demonic beings, splitting just a fraction of their power, could cause irreversible and massive damage to the East Profound Region.

“The creature-restricted zone stirs, the entire East Profound Region might again beco unstable,” a Great Power sighed.

“Qingyun Academy has had a long-standing feud with Evil King Mountain; each ti these demonic beings erge, we are their main targets.

This ti will likely be no exception.

Therefore, everyone here must be on full alert during this period to face any challenges that might arise!” a magnate of the academy said solemnly.

At that mont, a Great Power’s expression changed: “Not long ago, a large group of students went to the Canglei Ancient Ruins in teor State thanks to the soon-to-erge Xuanhuang Mother Qi; they might be in danger now!”

The creature-restricted zone stirs, and Evil King Mountain might not pass up such a good opportunity unless these demonic beings have other plans.

The academy’s magnate frowned and said, “According to the timing, by now they most likely have already reached the Canglei Ancient Ruins, or even entered.

It might already be too late to ask them to return; send support imdiately!”

“Yes!”

The Great Powers responded promptly, as those headed to the Canglei Ancient Ruins to gather Xuanhuang Mother Qi were the elite students of Qingyun Academy.

Moreover, among them was the Taoxu Road Holy Maiden Chu Yue Ling; should anything happen, it could not happen to her, as the entire Taoxu Road would be enraged.

“Do not worry, that girl, as the Holy Maiden of Taoxu Road, must have ans to preserve her life.

Moreover, within Taoxu Road, there is an extraordinary External Body Secret Skill, which allows one to house dual bodies; the one who ca to our academy is just an external avatar.”

Upon hearing this, the Great Powers’ suspense was eased.

However, the other students were equally important, so there were a few Great Powers preparing to depart, wanting to reach the Canglei Ancient Ruins at the fastest speed to provide support.

“Old Cui and the others definitely do not know about the outside events!” one of the Great Powers who was preparing to provide support said.

The Canglei Ancient Ruins are isolated from the world, without other living beings around and information is isolated; naturally, it is impossible for them to know about the events at Evil King Mountain.

“Inform him imdiately, and tell him to be extrely cautious,” the academy’s magnate commanded sternly.

“Understood.” Several Great Powers nodded and then promptly set out toward the Canglei Ancient Ruins to provide support.

“An era filled with troubles; the battle for supremacy among the Ten Thousand Tribes across the thirty-six hundred realms hasn’t started, yet the upper realm already seems headed toward chaos,” the academy’s magnate murmured, his expression looking rather grim.

Because, from the information he had learned, it was not only the Evil King Mountain in the East Profound Region; recently, creature-restricted zones in other realms too had started to beco restless.

This was a premonition, a sign that the upper realm was about to descend into chaos, and as a magnate level figure, he was very clear about this.

With this thought, his expression grew even heavier.

…

East Profound Region, Qi State, within an underground cave mansion.

This was an extrely secretive location, one among the many hideouts of the notorious Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights, even ranking among the top.

Since the incident involving Princess Xidie, after the failure of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights, the monarch of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty was enraged, dispatching a large army across regions to pursue and kill them, resulting in their heavy losses.

Originally, the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights could be said to be the largest bandit force in the East Profound Region, one which even normal Da Sects feared seeing, and so sacred lands found troubleso once targeted by them.

But now, after being pursued by the Holy Brilliance Dynasty, over half of the original thirty-six leaders who founded this force were dead or injured.

Even the leader ranked third among the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights had died tragically not long ago, showing how desperate their current situation was, like rats crossing the street, everyone shouting ‘hit them’.

This is where the Holy Brilliance Dynasty showed its astuteness, not only deploying a large army but even placing bounties on their heads throughout the East Profound Region, leading countless people to attack the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights.

Truthfully, daring to provoke the Holy Brilliance Dynasty, kidnapping Princess Xidie, many cultivators who knew of this marveled at the boldness of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights.

After all, the Holy Brilliance Dynasty is not just any giant force but is imnsely powerful.

In the vast upper realms, ranking just below the immortal-level sects like Taoxu Road and the foremost top-tier races, no other force is a match.

“These damned bastards, if one day I catch an opportunity, I will devour their flesh!” the sixth ranked person among the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights spoke out, venomously, in the dimly lit environnt.

Accustod to a tyrannical life of unbridled arson, murder, and plunder, the current life of hiding, dark without sunlight, made him extrely uncomfortable.

Had his nature not been tough, he might have been driven mad by this tornt already.

Now, compared to their glorious peak, the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights had only about one-third of their people left.

Moreover, even these remaining n were like frost-bitten eggplants, listless and languishing here, drained of spirit and vitality.

“Big brother, continuing like this isn’t viable, the loyalty of our n might completely disintegrate,” whispered a key mber of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights.

The leader of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights, draped in a black robe with a stern temperant and sinister gaze, was a gaunt middle-aged man.

His presence resembled that of a vulture, with piercing eyes that felt as uncomfortable as needles on one’s skin.

As notorious bandits of the East Profound Region, a disintegration of loyalty ant betrayal to them.

Once that happened, their already perilous situation would beco even more dangerous, and they might even be completely annihilated.

Upon hearing this, the sinister gaze of the leader of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights swept across the crowd, causing everyone who t his eyes to freeze and hold their breath.

Clearly, despite their downfall, the influence of the great leader still persisted.

“Don’t worry, these days will not last much longer,” he said in a hoarse, low voice.

At these words, everyone affiliated with the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights visibly reacted.

“Big brother, what do you an?” the second in command asked, startled.

The leader of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights cracked a smile, both chilling and unsettling, raising goosebumps on many.

“If nothing goes wrong, the entire East Profound Region is now in chaos, which ans the mont I’ve been waiting for has finally arrived!” His eyes were forbiddingly cold, chilling to the bone like a venomous serpent.

Turns out, he had already learned about the disturbances at Evil King Mountain and had been waiting ever since.

He knew well that the turmoil caused by the ergence of the Forbidden Zone of Living Beings would envelope the entire East Profound Region, making everyone feel endangered and the situation instantaneously chaotic.

That was when his opportunity would arise.

“Do you think I have just been fleeing aimlessly during this ti?” he said in a nacing tone.

As the leader of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights, wrapped in years of evil deeds and calamities across the East Profound Region, how could he not have any strategies for the current crisis?

Of course, it must also be said that the Holy Brilliance Dynasty was indeed strong and had almost pushed him to his limit.

Had it not been for the support of the forces behind him, this leader could not have lasted until now.

“After the clouds part, the moon will appear; now, it’s our turn to strike back!” His sinister gaze intensified, and deep within his pupils, wisps of black mist spread.

The leader of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights had long since pledged allegiance to the Taoxu Path!

Even, this infamous band of robbers was established under the instructions of the high ranks of the Taoxu Path.

Otherwise, why would he attack Princess Xidie of the Holy Brilliance Dynasty for no reason?

It’s not as if he was tired of living.

“Everything is within my calculations, the ti is now ripe!” The leader of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights’s expression shifted, as if he had received so ssage through a communication artifact.

The second in command, aware of so of the intel, also understood sothing and his expression instantly beca very excited.

They had had enough of these days.

“Follow , my n, and let us massacre far and wide!” the leader of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights declared loudly.

“Massacre far and wide, massacre far and wide!”

Upon hearing these words, everyone remaining at the site beca extrely agitated, as if coming back to life.

“Great leader, what’s our next target?” asked the sixth-ranked mber of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights eagerly.

“Yunzhou, Canglei Ancient Ruins!” declared the great leader coldly.

Clearly, their target was set on Gu Chen and his companions.

Or more precisely, on Princess Xidie, whom they had failed to capture once before.

The Holy Brilliance Dynasty was powerful, and Princess Xidie was the most cherished tenth princess of the emperor.

If they could capture her to blackmail the empire, it could still have a significant impact.

If possible, the Taoxu Path also hoped to bring the Holy Brilliance Dynasty under their control.

If this mission were successful, it would be an enormous achievent, and perhaps the leader of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights could advance further in rank to that of a holy master.

With the strength of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights, even if only one-third remained, they were not sothing the younger generation could easily contend with.

“This operation, we only allow success, not failure!” the leader of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights roared, his eyes filled with an increasingly dense black mist.

“Yes!”

“I want to see, this ti, who can save you!” stated the leader of the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights, his expression extrely cold.

Clearly, the near success last ti that was ultimately in vain remained a source of deep resentnt and rage for him.

If not for that, he wouldn’t have fallen to this level, nor would the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights.

He didn’t believe that this foolproof operation could still see Princess Xidie being rescued.

Gu Chen and his companions, who had recently entered the Canglei Ancient Ruins to search for the Xuanhuang Mother Qi, were unaware that a crisis was quietly approaching them.

In the darkness, shadows wanted to engulf Gu Chen and his companions completely.

Neither the Evil King Mountain nor the Devil Cloud Thirty-Six Knights were adversaries these young people could easily confront.

However, before these two crises struck, Gu Chen and his companions, who had just entered the Canglei Ancient Ruins, were already facing an unexpected event that changed their expressions.
