System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

At that moment, the alarms of the Nine Cities suddenly blared through the sky, but the ordinary people of the Longxia tribe showed no panic. They were well-trained and orderly filed into the nearby underground shelter.

Clearly, the regular defense drills and evacuation exercises for foreign invasions have already made the residents of the nine cities in Zelinhai very familiar with the response procedures.

The clan hall, located at the heart of the Nine Cities, is solemn and majestic.

Inside the main hall on the first floor, Elder Long, dressed in an antique-style Zhongshan suit, stood tall and his face exuded the robust aura of a middle-aged man.

Thanks to Chen Xuan's repeated use of precious innate spiritual liquid to cleanse his marrow and strengthen his bones, coupled with the exceptionally rich spiritual energy of this place, Elder Long's cultivation has advanced rapidly. Not only has he successfully refined his body into the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, but his Qi Refining cultivation is also about to break through the shackles of the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

"An invasion by foreign enemies?" Elder Long, who was discussing the tribe's development plan with Jiang Ming, the current patriarch of the Jiang clan, frowned slightly upon hearing this sudden news.

Since taking over as clan leader, Jiang Ming has become increasingly calm and experienced after two years of honing his skills.

Back then, Chen Xuan helped him reconnect his broken path to immortality, allowing his cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds. At this moment, his aura faintly shows signs of breaking through to the Myriad Manifestations Realm.

Jiang Ming snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, let's see which neighboring region's forces dare to set their sights on Qushan at this time."

The two immediately got up and prepared to rush to the first line of defense to investigate the enemy's strength and weakness.

Just then, whoosh—

A shimmering mist suddenly appeared in the clan hall, followed by the figure of an old man with white hair and a black robe slowly emerging from it—it was Xuan Shuize.

When Chen Xuan left, he made a vow to protect others, so everyone in this Zelin Sea held him in high esteem. Upon seeing this, Elder Long and Jiang Ming quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Elder Xuan!"

Xuan Shuize landed, his expression solemn. He glanced at the two men and slowly said, "The newcomers are aggressive and their strength should not be underestimated. There are nine of them, and each of them is at the same level as me."

Elder Long and Jiang Ming, who had been relatively calm, couldn't help but gasp upon hearing this, exclaiming in unison, "Nine... cultivators at the Myriad Manifestations Realm?"

Xuan Shuize nodded heavily: "Although we don't know their purpose in coming here, we must take full precautions."

When Chen Xuan left, Xuan Shuize made a promise that if he were attacked by a Nascent Soul Realm expert and could not defeat him, he would escape with the help of a Dao talisman; but if the opponent was below the Nascent Soul Realm, he would do his best to protect the Longxia Clan.

"Elder Xuan, with the current strength of our Qushan lineage, what are our chances of winning against such a powerful enemy?" Elder Long frowned, looking at Xuan Shuize with eager eyes.

Xuan Shuize sighed softly, "Alas, we can only do our best. Although young friend Chen Xuan set up many killing formations in Zelin Sea before leaving, the opponent has a full nine experts at the Myriad Manifestations Realm. The outcome is really hard to predict."

Upon hearing this, both Elder Long and Jiang Ming felt a chill in their hearts. After a moment, Elder Long raised his head, his eyes filled with determination: "No matter what, let's go and see what's going on. I am no longer the weak and powerless old man I once was. As the head of the clan, how can I back down when the tribe is in trouble?"

“Yes, let’s go take a look. Maybe the visitors aren’t enemies, it’s just a misunderstanding,” Jiang Ming agreed.

Soon, guided by the Xuan Shui Ze flying magic treasure, the three powerful figures from the two races arrived at the outermost edge of Ze Lin Hai at lightning speed.

At this moment, the huge flying warship was completely surrounded by thousands of Innate Realm human Yinglong Guards and nearly two hundred Pifu Realm great demons.

Yin Yi and the others looked down at everyone from their high positions, without concealing their powerful aura. Their Myriad Manifestations Realm aura surged like a tidal wave, pressing down on all sides.

Faced with this overwhelming sense of oppression, the cultivators of the Longxia and Jiang clans, though filled with fear, stood firm as rocks, blocking the warship.
