Yunze Town.
A Fire Cloud Ship, famous in the underworld, was quietly anchored in the center of the empty town.
At this moment on the deck, the powerful figures from various major families, along with the people from Lieyang Sect and Blood Moon, were waiting together, looking into the distance.
Soon, a huge golden chariot was seen flying from the end of the sky.
Before the golden chariot came to a complete stop, a woman jumped from the chariot and landed steadily on the Fire Cloud Ship of the Lieyang Sect.
"How is it?"
Xiao Pei, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who was the person in charge of this trip of Lieyang Sect, shouted anxiously.
Behind him stood Dong Yao from the Dong family, and Blood Moon Zhu Yuanxi who came with Dong Yao on the cloud sail.
Further back were the city lord of Tianyun City, Shangguan Dong, Ouyang Quan of the Ouyang family, He Hui of the He family, Ning Wei of the Ning family, and Su Hongfei of the Su family.
The six major families of the Fourth Realm and several prominent and powerful figures are now all present.
"The catastrophe inevitably happened."
Huang Ying, who was from the Xinghe League and had the Xiantian realm, looked at the people who had been waiting for a long time and said solemnly, "We implanted the Star Eyes into the bodies of the captured Dark Ghost members and threw them into the broken land infected by the filthy alien force."
There was fear in her eyes.
"The Dark Ghost members who fell down breathed in the filthy energy from the shattered earth. Most of them died in a short time due to internal rot."
"Those who survived also became crazy and wandered around aimlessly, and as a result..."
She sighed and continued, "There are mutated beasts that have gained a breakthrough due to the filthy power. They feed on the Dark Ghost members. There are also giant plants that have adapted to the filthy power and become ferocious and bloodthirsty."
Huang Ying shook her head and sighed, "The Dark Ghost members who went insane quickly died off. In the towns of the Broken Land, skeletons without flesh and blood were everywhere. The entire Broken Land was dead silent. We didn't see any living creatures that were lucky enough to survive with our Star Eyes."
Everyone was shocked.
Although they had expected that the situation in the broken land filled with foul alien power would be extremely tragic, they still felt panic and despair after Huang Ying confirmed it.
What frightened them the most was that the foul alien power rising from below was still continuing to spread around!
Shangguan Dong turned around and ordered his subordinates: "Those in the city who have no grudge against our Shangguan family, quickly arrange for Yun Fan to leave!"
The man nodded and left immediately.
"Brother Xiao, what are your three plans?"
As one of the pillars of the Dong family, the strongest family in the fourth realm, Dong Yao, a tall and well-dressed man, looked at Xiao Pei.
"It's consistent with the information we received."
Xiao Pei, who was full of righteousness, did not directly answer Dong Yao's words, but said: "There have been precedents for the rise of the fifth realm's filthy alien power, and more than once."
Everyone listened in silence.
"But the most recent one was a long time ago."
"According to the news from the Lieyang Sect, after being infected by the filthy alien force from the fifth realm, the vast majority of mortals, including practitioners like us, suffered casualties the fastest."
"Ferocious beasts and plants are more adaptable to dirty alien powers than we are, and may even mutate as a result."
"After the mutation, the beasts and plants have become extremely brutal and bloodthirsty. Their combat power will be greatly improved, and their levels may also experience a breakthrough."
Xiao Pei explained the mystery to everyone.
Everyone listened with a heavy heart.
"Huang Ying, you guys came back from there in the golden chariot. Have you confirmed that it is spreading?"
Xiao Pei stopped and asked.
Huang Ying nodded and said in a deep voice: "Yes, it is spreading to the surrounding areas, and Tianyun Shattered Land will be the first to be affected!"
"There's nothing I can do."
Xiao Pei shook his head bitterly and said, "I have asked Brother Shangguan to work with the Ouyang family to pour kerosene on the edge of the Qianli Yunze. When the kerosene is spread, we will set the entire Yunze on fire and destroy all the ferocious beasts and plants that are destined to mutate."
"Once the foul alien power spreads over, there will be no plants or ferocious beasts in Yunze, and there will be less threat."
Dong Yaoqi asked, "Brother Xiao, why don't we withdraw immediately?"
"We won't leave for now. We need to understand the situation." Xiao Pei replied immediately, and said cautiously: "The people in the upper world also want to know the extent and magnitude of this pollution infection."
“When the filthy alien power spreads to the Sky Destiny Shattered Land, we will all be in the sky, using the Star Eyes of the Galaxy Alliance to observe the subtle changes in the bodies and minds of those casual cultivators and mortals.”
"People in the upper realm need to use this to judge the degree of terror of the filthy alien power, and then decide how to deal with it."
Xiao Pei explained to everyone.
After hearing this, the faces of the people from the six major families became uglier than each other.
Ning Wei of the Ning family hesitated for a moment and whispered, "What about the future? If the entire Fourth Realm is slowly being infected and infiltrated by the filthy alien force, how will the people living in the lower realm be settled?"
Dong Yao, Shangguan Dong, Ouyang Quan, and people from major families in the lower world all looked at Xiao Pei!
Xiao Pei sighed, "The Third Realm cannot accommodate so many people. The direct members of your major families, as well as some of the dignitaries who depend on you, should have places to stay."
"As for the common people, we can only see if there is a suitable place in the broken land of the upper realm."
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
What Xiao Pei meant was that if the catastrophe really broke out, the major sects in the upper realm would only keep a part of the people alive, and many people would be completely abandoned.
They had just heard from Huang Ying what would happen to those abandoned people in this world filled with filthy strange forces.
…
Under the night.
Pang Jian quietly left the cave, carefully observed the situation above, and moved quietly in Yunze.
From Luo Hongyan, he learned that the Lieyang Sect had prepared kerosene and arranged for people from the Shangguan and Ouyang families to fall on the edge of Yunze.
The other party intends to burn down the entire Yunze and kill all the ferocious beasts and plants.
He left the cave under the cover of night to see if he could get the miraculous sapling back into the bronze plate.
When Qianli Yunze is covered by flames, the small tree that has grown with great difficulty will also be reduced to ashes.
"Another cloud sail."
Standing under a tree with dense branches and leaves, Pang Jian looked at the sky through the gaps between the leaves and saw a cloud sail slowly flying by.
On Yunfan are practitioners from the seven major families.
He deliberately chose to travel at night because Luo Hongyan said that there were two more cloud sails floating in Yunze, and he must be careful.
An hour later.
Pang Jian, who had been hiding all the way, finally arrived at the small tree that had grown recently and was much taller than him.
But a few days ago, the small tree was only as high as his knees.
This shows that the little tree is growing at an alarming rate!
"rustle!"
Seeing him appear, the small tree that had a sense of his presence swayed its tender green branches gently.
There is no wind, but the branches are swaying gently, which shows that the little tree has self-awareness!
Pang Jian also clearly felt a surge of joy coming from inside the small tree, clearly happy about his arrival.
—This was an emotion he had never experienced before.
Pang Jian was surprised and immediately showed the bronze plate on his chest, saying, "Yunze will soon be engulfed in raging flames. All the trees will be burned to death, and you will hardly be an exception."
"here!"
Pointing at the bronze tablet, he said to the small tree in front of him: "If possible, you can return here. When I leave this broken land, I will find new soil for you."
The little tree just shook its branches, as if it didn't understand the meaning of his words, and did not escape into the bronze plate.
After hesitating for a moment, Pang Jian sat down where he was, closed his eyes, established perception with it, and tried to express the same meaning with his mind.
After a moment.
The small tree pulled its roots away from the ground, flew to the swamp not far away, and slowly sank to the bottom of the swamp.
Not long after.
The small tree released a green divine glow and emerged from the bottom of the swamp. It randomly found a place and slowly sank into the ground.
It just disappeared deep underground!
In this way, it told Pang Jian that it was not afraid of the flames burning the Qianli Yunze at all. It could go deep into the swamp and also sink directly into the ground.
Pang Jian was stunned.
He immediately remembered that next to the Blood Moon's "Unfixed Ferry", there were bloodthirsty vines extending from the cracks in the ground.
The giant vine was originally buried deep underground.
The little tree, which had just grown up, actually had this ability.
"It seems that I was worrying too much."
Pang Jian nodded in self-mockery, thinking that it could gradually understand what he said, and said: "If you don't want to return to the bronze medal, then be careful. In addition to fire, you also need to be wary of practitioners. They..."
Before he finished his words, the small tree emerged from the ground again, and the green glow it released disappeared in an instant.
—it became exactly the same as the nearby trees.
"All right."
Pang Jian said no more.
"call out!"
A ray of light as green as jade suddenly shot out from a branch of the small tree and instantly disappeared into Pang Jian's heart.
A magical power immediately appeared in Pang Jian's heart, which seemed to be able to heal his injuries.
This power carried a strange breath of life, making Pang Jian feel cool and comfortable in his heart and lungs, as if it was slowly nourishing his internal organs.
It was obviously the little tree's return to Pang Jian.
"Take care of yourself."
Pang Jian touched his chest and felt it secretly before leaving quietly.
He was afraid that if he stayed too long, he would be noticed by Yunfan flying in the sky, and the small tree would be exposed.
On the way back.
The hunting boat from Blood Moon suddenly came roaring from a great distance, and flew towards Pang Jian at a speed many times faster than Yun Fan.
"There are practitioners at the Marrow Cleansing Realm!"
Ni Chen, who followed Zhu Yuanxi, was holding a blood-red crystal ball on the deck. He pointed at Pang Jian's position and shouted, "That's it!"
"call!"
The trapping boat roared and accelerated.
Soon, a sharp-eyed member of the Blood Moon team spotted Pang Jian flying through the bushes and said, "He is Hong Jian, and he is the one who killed Master Fei Zheng!"
"Hong Jian of the Dark Ghost!"
"He can't get away!"
The other two Blood Moon masters in the Marrow Cleansing Realm suddenly stood up from their cross-legged sitting position and immediately perked up.
"He is really that young!"
