NOVPUBFengyu Mountain.
At the Daoist Palace on the mountain top.
At this moment, cultivators are hurrying in and out.
Simultaneously, urgent voices are echoing inside the Daoist Palace.
"Reporting to Guardian Xumi, news has arrived from Huatao County, we have observed signs of Elixir Cultivators from the Tupi Continent gathering..."
"Reporting to Guardian Xumi, there is temporarily nothing unusual along the shoreline..."
"Reporting to Vice Guardian Yuan, urgent news from Haitou County, they have discovered a Feather Serpent Tribe altar!"
In the Daoist Palace, Xumi, who was dealing with miscellaneaous affairs, and Yuan Zhen’s personal disciple, both looked at the messenger simultaneously.
Yuan Zhen’s personal disciple furrowed his brows and quickly said:
"Speak, tell us the details!"
The disciple who came to report didn’t dare to be lax, and hurriedly said:
"Yes, the team that went to Haitou County accidentally discovered Elixir Cultivators from Tupi Continent gathering, so they followed them secretly and were unfortunately found out. They had to fight and unexpectedly discovered an altar of the Feather Serpent Tribe. They are now in a fierce battle and have urgently requested for reinforcements."
Xumi’s eyes slightly concentrated. Upon hearing the message, his face remained devoid of any emotions.
Yuan Zhen’s personal disciple, on the other hand, couldn’t help but show a look of joy:
"Good! We have finally found them!"
"I don’t regret that we kept dispatching more troops, I will go there myself and..."
Just as he was speaking, another figure hurriedly came forward and said:
"Reporting to Guardian Xumi and Vice Guardian Yuan, the team headed to Haizhou county just sent an urgent report, they have discovered Elixir Cultivators from Tupi Continent and an altar of the Feather Serpent Tribe!"
Upon hearing this, the joy on Yuan Zhen’s face was instantly frozen.
The several Nascent Soul cultivators below couldn’t help exclaiming:
"How is it possible to have two altars?"
Immediately after, another cultivator rushed in hurriedly:
"Reporting to Guardian Xumi and Vice Guardian Yuan, Haibei County urgently reports, they have discovered Feather Serpent Tribe altar!"
At these words, everyone in the Daoist Palace almost instantly became stupefied.
"The third one?"
Nevertheless, in a very short period of time, it was as if a hornet’s nest had been stirred up.
One urgent figure after another rushed in.
"Urgent news from Haiding county! We have discovered... Feather Serpent altar!"
"Aishi county..."
The cultivators below were all at a loss.
"In the southern region of entire West Sea Country, there are only fifteen counties, but the altars of the Feather Serpent Tribe have turned up in twelve of them..."
At this moment, Xumi and Yuan Zhen’s personal disciple instinctively lifted their heads, and couldn’t help looking towards the east.
In that direction, they felt a vaguely familiar aura emanating intense bloodthirst and malevolence! 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Although this aura wasn’t very strong for them, it was far from something an ordinary Golden Core Craftsman could resist.
"Strange, why does it feel much weaker than the last encounter?"
A hint of doubt arose in Yuan Zhen’s personal disciple’s heart.
And not long after the two of them noticed this aura,
Another figure rushed in with an urgent message:
"Emergency! Urgent news from Huatao County! While hunting down an Elixir Cultivator from the Tupi Continent, we discovered a Feather Serpent Tribe altar underground. It has just been activated and we have suffered heavy losses. We request immediate reinforcements!"
At this moment, there wasn’t a trace of joy left on the face of Yuan Zhen’s personal disciple. He was completely solemn.
He couldn’t help looking around at the Nascent Soul cultivators inside the Daoist Palace. Including him and Xumi of the Lonely Sword, there were only nine Nascent Soul cultivators left on the southern shoreline.
Only six of them were skilled in battle.
"What a pity! If it wasn’t for the ambush last time, we wouldn’t have lost several Nascent Souls..."
Yuan Zhen gnashed his teeth in regret.
Before he had a chance to react, the voices of more than ten cultivators rang out one after the other:
"Emergency! Haitou County requests reinforcements! The Feather Serpent altar has been activated..."
"Emergency! Haizhou County..."
"Emergency..."
Yuan Zhen was anxious and paced back and forth inside Daoist Palace.
The numerous altars far exceeded his original expectations.
The Nascent Soul cultivators below were also rapidly calculating possibilities in their minds.
Someone immediately suggested, "Let the stronger troops hold on first, we split up and assist the weaker teams!"
"Impossible! This thing is strange. When the leader of the Feather Serpent Tribe was controlling it to ambush us, it never ceased to die. Have you guys forgotten?"
"There’s no such thing as an immortal being in the world. If we don’t take action, I’m afraid the disciples below will all..."
"Don’t let these things blind you! We oversee the southern shoreline, we need to consider the billions of lives here. We can’t sacrifice the majority for the sake of the minority!"
"Are our direct disciples more important, or are the billions of lives here more important?!"
"Both are important! But since so many altars have come into existence simultaneously, who can guarantee there isn’t a trap? If we act hastily and the cultivators from the other continents launch a surprise attack on Fengyu Mountain, how would we respond? We mustn’t commit mistakes in haste, it will only provide the opponent an opportunity!"
Inside the Daoist Palace, the Nascent Soul cultivators were arguing intensely.
At this point, a Nascent Soul cultivator could no longer help suggesting:
"Why don’t we ask the Tankong Patriarch to take action? He is near the southern shoreline, isn’t he?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhen hesitated for a moment, then immediately shook his head and said:
"The Tankong Patriarch left for the outer sea barrier a few days ago. According to plans, he won’t be back for half a month."
"This..."
The uselessness of the situation left the Nascent Soul cultivators speechless.
At this moment, a voice finally slowly rang out:
"You all go, I will guard this place."
Yuan Zhen and the rest of the cultivators were all caught by surprise as their gazes fell on the figure who had been silent all this time inside the Daoist Palace.
It was the peak master of Xinjian Peak of Wanxiang Sect, Xumi.
"Martial Uncle Xumi... Then we’ll have to trouble you!"
"Everyone, let’s move!"
Yuan Zhen hesitated for a moment, then immediately headed towards one direction without any further delay, teeth gritted.
