868 Chapter 868: LORD"s Awakening (4)
Ye Xiao looked at his surroundings and was stunned. He could not believe what he was seeing.
This was the Imperial City of the Azure Dragon Country. Ye Xiao still remembered how bustling this city actually was in the past. Even in the nighttime, many people could be found walking on the street and roads outside.
But currently, the entire Imperial City looked too desolate. Yes, it has become the City of Desolation. The Imperial City was completely destroyed. Not a single house or building could be seen standing without damage. Flames were burning at many places in the Imperial City and black smoke could be seen rising in the sky even from afar.
Most importantly, not a single person could be seen in the Imperial City. It was as if all people have suddenly disappeared.
But… Countless weak and powerful demonic beasts could be seen rummaging over the entire city. The ground was red because of blood and many corpses of humans and demonic beasts could be seen scattered everywhere.
“What exactly happened here?”
Ye Xiao was really shocked. He didn’t know what exactly happened here. He immediately released his Divine Sense that actually covered the entire Azure Sky Continent, and was shocked to see the same scene at two other places. One was at the Imperial City of the Great Xia Empire and the other one was at the Dragon Empire.
Dragon Empire was still intact and losses were not that big. After all, Dragons rule the Dragon Empire, and in front of their might, what Demonic Beast would dare to attack!
The Imperial City of the Great Xia Empire was also doing slightly better. There were many powerful experts in the Great Xia Empire and among them, there was no lack of Martial Saint Realm martial artists. So, they were like a great wall, blocking the horde of demonic beasts. Although damages and destruction could still be seen there, it was not that big.pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴ(0ᴠᴇ)ʟ.ᴄᴏm
As for the Azure Dragon Country, it seemed as though the entire country was on the verge of destruction. Many cities had already been destroyed completely under the attacks of the beast horde. Countless people have died.
The Silver Moon Sect and many such sects were completely destroyed. Even the Five Great Sects and the Royal Family of the Azure Dragon Empire were completely obliterated.
After carefully searching with the help of his Divine Sense, Ye Xiao was finally able to locate a place where hundreds of thousands of people were hiding. There, he could even some familiar people from the Five Great Sects.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Xiao decided to first take care of all these demonic beasts, so as to stop the destruction.
“Soul Destruction!”
Immediately, countless demonic beasts, who were still rummaging through the city and destroying everything in their way, fell to the ground lifelessly. Ye Xiao used the “Soul Destruction” ability three times. The first time, all the demonic beasts attacking the Azure Dragon Country died. The second time, demonic beasts attacking the Imperial City of the Great Xia Empire died, and the third time, demonic beasts attacking the Dragon Empire died.
This phenomenon shocked countless people who were still fighting the demonic beasts in order to save their loved ones and their city. They could not help but wonder what exactly happened that killed all the demonic beasts in an instant.
However, they were destined to never find out what happened. pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴ(O)ᴠᴇl
Now that Ye Xiao had dealt with demonic beasts, he focused on three different places in the Azure Sky Country. It is because he could see three mountain-like objects in three different places. These three mountain-like objects were obviously the three meteorites that fell from the sky.
Ye Xiao was slightly surprised because the barrier covering a large area around the meteorites actually resisted Ye Xiao’s Divine Sense, trying to stop him from spying.
Nevertheless, Ye Xiao’s Divine Sense is too powerful for these barriers to block.
However, before Ye Xiao could see take another step, he was shocked to sense a heavy fluctuation of energy from the meteorite in the Cloudsmoke Forest. And this energy fluctuation had actually surpa.s.sed the strength of any Ancient Immortal.
Ye Xiao was able to walk around in the Azure Sky Continent because his strength has far surpa.s.sed anything that the Azure Sky Continent could suppress or affect. Furthermore, he returned to this world using the Gate on the Fifth Floor of Nine Story PaG.o.da that affected him somewhat, causing the word to unable to sense him.
This was how he sent the Zhao Yufei, Zhao Qing’er, and Yue Ying to Azure Sky Continent when he was still in the Upper Realm.
But what about these meteorites? A heavy fluctuation of energy that has surpa.s.sed the strength of an Ancient Immortal actually appeared but the world was still not reacting because of some reason. The world should have reacted and expelled the meteorite outside its atmosphere but it didn’t do anything like this.
Ye Xiao took a step forward and disappeared from where he stood, and a few seconds later, he appeared in front of the huge meteorite. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕ(ꪫ)ꪣꫀ l

_Inside the Meteorite_
A few minutes ago…
Wen Xiang was very happy in his heart for he had finally gained control over a Martial Saint Realm puppet. He looked at Xiao Ling and said: “Xiao Ling, it is all because of you. If you hadn’t given me that defensive talisman, I wouldn’t have been able to subdue the puppet!”
Xiao Ling smiled and said: “I’ll accept your thanks. But we should think about getting out of here first.”
“Yes, you are right!” Wen Xiang nodded in agreement and was about to keep the puppet in his spatial ring when a ‘cracking’ sound suddenly came from the puppet.
Instantly, the seal that Wen Xiang placed on the puppet was broken. The puppet’s eyes turned completely red and the aura on its body started increasing rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the puppet’s strength surpa.s.sed the Martial Saint Realm and reached Immortal Foundation Realm. But the increase in its aura was not stopping at all, it continued to increase.
Because of its aura, the pressure in the surroundings increased so much that Wen Xiang and Xiao Ling couldn’t keep standing. They were forced to kneel down at first and before long, they couldn’t even continue to stay in a kneeling position. They were forced to lay down on the ground. Their skin cracked in many places as they started bleeding, and soon lost their consciousness. They fainted on the spot but the crack on their body continued to spread. Even their bones started cracking because of the mountain-like pressure.
“Soul Protection!”
At this moment, a soft sound echoed inside the cave and a transparent barrier appeared, enveloping Wen Xiang and Xiao Ling’s bodies. This barrier didn’t stop the pressure from affecting their bodies, it was there to protect their souls.
No matter what happened to their bodies, their soul will not be affected in the slightest.
When Ye Xiao appeared in front of the meteorite, he saw the cave which was being protected by a barrier. He frowned and used his powerful Divine Sense to penetrate the barrier and soon located Wen Xiang and Xiao Ling. Seeing their current situation, Ye Xiao used ‘Soul Protection’ to protect their souls, otherwise, their souls would have been destroyed because of the immense pressure.
“Destruction!”
Ye Xiao didn’t attack the barrier, for his strength is something that’ll definitely affect the entire Azure Sky Continent. This, using his strength in this world of the lower realm was no longer feasible. If he used his strength, even if he controlled his strength greatly, it’ll still affect the entire world which is definitely not something that Ye Xiao want to do.
Thus, he used the Destruction Law to destroy the barrier and entered the cave, soon arriving in front of Wen Xiang and Xiao Ling. He waved his hand and sent them to the First Floor of the Nine Story PaG.o.da.
While he was going to deal with troubles here, they could recover slowly there. The time difference between the outside world and the First Floor or Nine Story PaG.o.da is huge. One day here is equivalent to a hundred days there. So, those two could heal there more quickly.
And after that, Ye Xiao finally looked at the red-eyed puppet whose aura has already become strong enough to rival any peak Dao Body Stage of Dao Manifestation Realm martial artist.
pꪖnᦔa (nꪫꪣ)ꫀ l And only at this moment did the increase in its aura come to an abrupt stop.
“Roar!”
After the aura on its body stopped increasing, it raised its head and let out a beast-like roar. Shocking waves of shockwaves exploded forth and were about to break past the walls of the meteorite but were blocked by Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao used his soul force to create an invisible but extremely powerful barrier that covered the entire meteorite, stopping everything inside from affecting the outside world.
Otherwise, just this roar was enough to bring doom to this world.
After all, the level of this world is too low, to the point where it couldn’t even withstand a full-strength strike from an Immortal Foundation Realm martial artist.
It mainly relies on the Heavenly Dao to expel powerful experts like Immortals out of this world.
