North County.
The originally thin clouds suddenly gathered above Julu Pass.
This celestial phenomenon attracted the attention of many people.
In the martial arts training field, Wei Qing suddenly stopped, raised his head, and looked with astonishment at the clouds overhead.
"Tier Nine."
He murmured.
A breakthrough to Tier Nine would cause such a celestial phenomenon. The center of the phenomenon is at Julu Pass, which means the person breaking through is currently at Julu Pass.
Even if Wei Qing was not very intelligent, he instantly thought of the individualâs identity.
Lin Jingxuan!
"I didnât expect you to beat me to it, kid."
"Hahaha, hahaha!" Wei Qing suddenly burst into laughter, "Good, good, good!"
After laughing, Wei Qing abruptly turned and walked towards his home.
"Wei Qing, what are you doing, not practicing?" A Contracted Spirit in red behind him tried to call him back.
"Practice? Whatâs the point of practicing, Iâm bored to death sparring with you every day."
Wei Qing continued to walk without turning back, "Now that Great Xia has Lin Jingxuan sitting at Tier Nine, I donât need to worry about that anymore. Of course, Iâm going out, looking for some battles to fight, seeking the chance to break through to Tier Nine!"
"Youâre leaving North County? Is that okay?"
"Why wouldnât it be okay?" Wei Qing stopped, looked up at the sky, "Thatâs Lin Jingxuan."
"Tier Nine Lin Jingxuan." He added.
"Where are you planning to go? You must have a target, right?"
"First, Iâm going to find the Pope of the Old Covenant, play with that lone commander a bit, and regain some ground for our old man. Then, Iâm going to the Imperial and have a go with those hypocrites who speak of compassion!"
"Letâs go, I canât wait any longer!"
...
"Has the reason for the disturbance in the cloud layer been determined?"
"Someone has broken through the Tier Nine Realm, causing the celestial phenomenon."
"Judging from the direction of the cloud layerâs flow, itâs Great Xia."
"Great Xia?" On the Endless Star Sea Sky Mother Ship, the true headquarters of the Can Shang Company, a person wearing a silver mask looked out at Blue Star through the transparent porthole of the commanderâs room.
"Really a survivor, annoying like a cockroach."
"Is the Celestial Ultimate Martial still unusable?"
"No, the energy issue hasnât been completely resolved yet. Once the Celestial Ultimate Martial is released, the energy on the entire Sky Mother Ship will run out in five seconds. And these five seconds will be very fatal for us who have some mortal enemies."
The enemies of the Can Shang Company are not limited to just Great Xia.
Without ensuring their own safety first, making a rash move doesnât align with the Can Shang Companyâs principle of prioritizing interests.
Moreover, if the Celestial Ultimate Martial canât kill a Tier Nine powerhouse, then firing it would be meaningless.
"What has Shang Jianyue said about this?"
"Itâs a stalemate. The longer it drags on, the faster his development speed, and the harder it becomes for us to bring him down."
"Many of our technologies have roots in him, so..."
"Also, some voices in the senior meeting are very loud. They are all radical young people, fanatical followers and admirers of Shang Jianyue."
"Let them jump around a bit more." The person in the silver mask waved his hand impatiently, unwilling to listen to these trivial matters anymore.
"This body is already close to decay, has a new body been found?"
...
North County border, Mo Hai City.
A figure swiftly shuttled through the dense forest of the suburbs.
She wore a black and white Sword Dao uniform, carrying a large sword on her back. Her appearance was exceptionally beautiful and her figure agile.
It was Gongyang Jin, who hadnât been seen for a long time.
Even though she had awakened the SSS Level Ancient Divine Weapon Xuanyuan Sword, Gongyang Jin still habitually carried a large sword because the Sword Qi of the Xuanyuan Sword was too intense for her to temper her Sword Dao.
This large sword was made in North County by someone according to her previous specifications and felt very handy to use.
She had tracked through several cities.
From the central part of North County, she continued to track to the border.
All to bring the mastermind who caused chaos in Great Xia to justice.
The opponent was cunning, always managing to escape at the last moment.
Both parties pursued each other all the way to Mo Hai City.
As a border city, Mo Hai City had a characteristic that every border city was covered with an Ancient Array to prevent invasions.
So for Gongyang Jin, it was already like catching a turtle in an urn.
Indeed, nearing the end of the suburbs, as soon as the forest was left, it was no longer the territory of North County.
At this moment, an invisible light film appeared at the end of the world.
Under Gongyang Jinâs feet, the activated Ancient Array began to spin rapidly.
"Run, why donât you keep running?"
When the Array was activated, near the light film, a blur of a black figure was forced to show its form.
Gongyang Jin pressed forward step by step, drawing the large sword from her back. The sword tip stabbed into the soil, and under her right handâs drag, it plowed a long sword trench.
Unexpectedly, the opponent who was driven into a corner, rather than panicking, chuckled lightly.
It was that chuckle that made Gongyang Jin stop in her tracks.
There was a hint of doubt and uncertainty in her eyes.
"Who are you really?"
"Who I am, canât you tell? It really breaks my heart, myâdear sister."
The opponent spoke and turned around, revealing a somewhat immature-looking boy.
He had short black hair, with eyes deep black like two swirling vortices, devouring everything and everyone who met his gaze.
"Chen Tao!" Gongyang Jinâs pupils widened suddenly, "This is impossible, you couldnât have come out of the City of Extreme Evil, how could you have gotten out?"
"The Mutant Walker slaughtering innocent citizens within Great Xia is you? Youâve joined the Longevity Company?!"
Chen Tao did not answer Gongyang Jinâs question.
A manic smile appeared on his young face, inconsistent with his age.
"One mention after another of Great Xia, is this still the City of Extreme Evilâs Valkyrie, the great villain Gongyang Jin that I know?"
"You left me alone in the City of Extreme Evil, yet you found a man outside to enjoy yourself with, my dear sister!"
Chen Taoâs words left Gongyang Jin silent.
"Why arenât you speaking?"
"Werenât you going to kill me, for that little man of yours, for that Great Xia, come on, kill me."
"Kill me, and cut off all ties with your past, no one will disturb you anymore, you can lead a good life of being a good wife and loving mother."
"Kill me!"
Swish! Gongyang Jin raised her large sword, her Sword Heart wavering.
A fierce glint flashed in Chen Taoâs eyes, but the next second, he suddenly looked up at the distant sky.
Damn it.
Chen Tao cursed inwardly, seeing success was within reach, he didnât want it all to be in vain.
So he had to settle for second best, saying urgently to Gongyang Jin in front of him, "Want to know why I became like this, go to the City of Extreme Evil, there youâll find the answers you seek."
Chen Tao had just finished saying this.
An invisible light rapidly swept across the North County border, vanquishing all evils.
Gongyang Jin stared in disbelief at the empty space in front of her, stunned.
