Lin Chang'an's calm voice echoed beneath the autumn rain, as a distant line of Chen Family mbers, desolate and driven out, waited in place.
"Damn Chen Wen!"
"The old ancestor really was blind. Why didn't he choose Chen Feng back then..."
Having lost everything, the Chen family mbers were filled with resentnt, but in this turbulent Immortal Cultivation Realm, they still needed to rely on the old ancestor.
At the forefront of the crowd, Chen Feng was even more nervous as he looked into the distance, only able to pray that his grandfather could secure a way out for the family.
However, under the autumn rain, a bloody Sword Aura flashed by, adding a chill to the air.
"Friend Chen, take care."
At this mont, Lin Chang'an raised his glass with an indifferent expression and slowly poured it on the ground, as a farewell to his neighbor.
At this mont, the hunched figure of Chen Qing, his gaze gradually dimming, erupted with the fierceness of his youth at the last mont.
Yet it was all too late. If only he had continued to be brave and diligent then, he might not have ended up without the strength to resist now.
If only he hadn't chosen Chen Wen back then, he wouldn't have...
But there were not so many ifs. Chen Qing, a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, had lost his vitality.
This scene had a trendous impact on Wei Yingying and Shen Fan, with the earlier scene still echoing in their minds.
The hunched and severely injured old man, suddenly erupted with a fierce aura, but was instantly slain.
"Old Ancestor!"
As Chen Qing's body fell, the distant Chen family mbers all showed expressions of sorrow.
So people, in a panic, scattered and fled in all directions.
When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. With the loss of their last Foundation Establishnt Cultivator for support, the Chen family lost their backbone.
"Brother Fan, let's go!"
Wei Yingying was the first to react, and without any hesitation, directly pulled Shen Fan to charge forward.
Under the autumn rain, Sword Aura flashed, instantly slaying the late-stage Qi Refining high-tier cultivators.
Before his death, Chen Feng lay in the muddy rainwater, reflecting on his life, muttering to himself:
"Grandfather, perhaps I was wrong. If I had fought for it, the Chen family wouldn't have..."
At this mont, Chen Feng suddenly realized that the Immortal Cultivation Realm was all about struggle.
He did not fight, and the Foundation Establishnt opportunity went to Chen Wen. As a result, the Chen family suffered disaster, and he had no power.
This scene was witnessed by the people on the hillock.
Chen Wen was full of regret and pain, endlessly kneeling and knocking his head on the ground.
"Grandfather, Brother Feng, Uncle, Little Dou... everyone, I was wrong! I brought disaster to the Chen family..."
His desperate voice echoed, but it was all too late.
The cause of yesterday leads to the effect of today.
...
Gathering Immortals Tower.
The autumn rain brought a chill, and outside, a cold wind blew.
"Brother Lin, you wouldn't believe how many loose cultivators were caught in Celestial Profound City today. Who would have thought my neighbor Old Li was colluding with Tribulation Cultivators."
Hu Jin talked endlessly, especially when ntioning so of his own friends, showing a lancholy look.
The Immortal Cultivation Realm is like that, one mont friends, the next in greed for so treasure, they beco Tribulation Cultivators.
"Old Hu, this way, the Tribulation Cultivators outside Celestial Profound City will have to be quiet for a while."
"Indeed."
Lin Chang'an smiled and chatted with Old Hu, not worrying about so people; they all need to keep moving forward.
"However, Brother Lin, you should visit the Trading Market soon. A lot of demon hunting teams have had good harvests lately."
Knowing Lin Chang'an needed crystal cores, Old Hu brought up this matter.
Lin Chang'an also beca serious, recalling that before, when he went demon hunting with Huang Shaohai, he noticed sothing amiss.
For instance, there was a kind of spiritual insect capable of Divine Sense Attack that he had never seen before, and after trading at Treasures Tower, he ca to know that these insects were from deeper within the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
"Old Hu, if you hadn't ntioned it, I would have almost forgotten. Earlier, when I went demon hunting, I discovered a spiritual insect capable of Divine Sense Attack, and later learned from Treasures Tower that..."
Listening to Lin Chang'an, Old Hu nodded seriously.
"Demon Beasts leaving their original territory, migrating from the depths of the Myriad Beast Mountain to the outside world... It's not normal; mostly it's due to overpopulation, competing for territory, seeking new lands...
Or perhaps a new Tier Three Demon King has erged in the depths of the mountain range, driving other beasts outward, or there could be an unknown upheaval deep within the Cloud Mist Mountain Range."
Listening to Old Hu, Lin Chang'an couldn't help but glance at him.
This Old Hu's vast knowledge didn't seem like that of a regular loose cultivator.
He hadn't thought much of it before, but during this ti, Huang Shaohai generously shared his lifeti of knowledge with him, revealing so insights.
After all, every cultivator has so secrets.
"In that case, no matter which it is, it's not good. It might well herald a Beast Tide."
Lin Chang'an added, while simultaneously contemplating Huang Shaohai's mories.
This Huang Shaohai was not only ordered to create chaos and gather resources for Huang Tianxiao but also to monitor the demon beast movents in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
"From what Huang Shaohai knows, Master Lu's life is nearing its end, and Li Huo Palace and Divine Sword Sect seem to be acting within the depths of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range..."
Huang Shaohai, being from a collateral line, had limited intelligence.
But it concerned Lin Chang'an's interests, and upon deliberation, the uproar in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range seed inseparable from Li Huo Palace and Divine Sword Sect.
However, his previous ssages had already divulged what was necessary; the remaining matters were beyond his concern.
"Hopefully, it is just the unrest caused by the Demon King struggles deep within the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, but we mustn't lower our guard and should prepare early."
