Shi Lin and Ben Leizi were shocked as they saw what unfolded in front of their eyes. The boundaries of the Greater World were torn apart and that crack in void space seemed to be superior to countless weapons in the Heavens and Earth, as the Feiyi with the original true spirit and the sword cultivator in the Immortal Soul Second Level were both slashed apart so easily.

From the crack, lights shone out and filled the sky. The beings that walked out from the crack possessed a frightening might that seemed to convince everyone else not to resist.

The beings had the figure of humans, but they had three horns on their heads and their teeth were sharp like dragons and wolves. Behind their backs, there was long silvery-white fur. As their tails dragged behind them, their complexion appeared to be filled with purplish runes.

This was an unfamiliar scene to everyone around. They had not seen such a creature before.

But after a period of momentary shock, a name that caused their hearts to sink rose from the depths of their memories in their minds.

Hades!

This tribe that once dominated the Barren Expanses and Grand Celestial World had re-appeared after remaining hidden for 4000 years.

The leader of the pack, who was the strongest Hades Beast, stood up straight like a human. It had an average-sized built and looked calm as it swept its gaze across the Heavens and Earth.

It was the new leader of the Hades tribe, the Illusory Sun Hades.

Even though he was just standing there quietly without doing anything, he seemed to be at the center of the Heavens and Earth. He did not deliberately reveal his power, but he did not deliberately conceal it either.

Everyone in the Divine Lands could sense his presence and were shocked because of that. Even in the Black Sea, there seemed to be countless wills that shook.

The powerful cultivators in the Divine Lands could subtly sense this formidable presence descending in the Greater World too.

Behind the Illusory Sun Hades, there were 3 Hades Beast. They all stood like humans and two of them were bigger than the last Hades Beast. They were all very calm and seemed to ignore Shi Lin, Ben Leizi, the Tao Wus and the rest. They scanned their surroundings like the Illusory Sun Hades.

Behind these 3 Hades Beast, there were a few Hades Beast that did the same thing too. These Hades Beast looked on with a fiercer sense of dominance and enthusiasm. Some of the gazes of the Hades Beasts were filled with a sense of regret and longing. There were individual Hades Beast that were also curious.

But the common thing about all of them was that they were feeling belligerent now. Their gaze seemed to solidify, and they appeared desperate to raze this world to the ground.

Behind these Hades Beast, more and more Hades Beast emerged from the crack. They were of lower cultivations, but their demonic auras filled the sky. They were extremely dominant and left everyone petrified.

Shi Lin and Ben Leizi could not bother to meticulously observe these Hades Beast. When they realized their identities, they did not even look back as they escaped.

But their hopes of escaping were extinguished quickly. Their fates had been determined the moment they appeared at this place today.

The Illusory Sun Hades and the three Hades Beast behind him did not react. But the bunch of Hades Beasts behind the four of them did. One Hades Beast reached out with its claw and grabbed in space. A purple light surged and captured both Shi Lin and Ben Leizi.

Whereas the rest of the cultivators who survived earlier were all turned to blood under the pressure exerted by the demonic powers of that Hades Beast. They lost their lives just like that.

The cultivators over here were all from the Great Qin Empire or the Lightning Sword Sect. Shi Lin and Ben Leizi turned dismal as they saw the Hades Beasts, and their logic told them that escaping was of top priority.

But as they were captured by that Hades Beast, Ben Leizi could not move as he tried to struggle. The sword radiances around his body seemed like inconsequential sparks. Before they could even light up, they were already extinguished.

Ben Leizi could not maintain his human form and he revealed his Immortal Soul Avatar under the pressure exerted by the Hades Beast’s demonic powers. He turned into a long sword that was revolved by lightning. And his magic treasure was a gestation level sword. However, the Hades Beast opened its mouth and swallowed the sword in one mouth. It was engulfed just like that!

Countless bolts of lightning exploded in the stomach of the Hades Beast, but that Hades Beast seemed to be unbothered.

On the other side, Shi Lin summoned his virtual entity, which combined with his Black River Sword. As his body distorted, he became like a black river. In the river, a black light dragon poked out.

The Hades Beast could not help but laughed when he saw this, “I have even eaten a real dragon before. What’s this fake dragon to me?”

The purplish light patterns on its claws surged and dragged the black river away along with the black light dragon. After that, the purplish light turned into countless talismanic words that surge in the Heavens and Earth. A huge whirlpool seemed to have been formed.

As the whirlpool was initiated, the black river and light dragon were crushed.

That Hades Beast opened its mouth and sucked. The crushed black light turned into a line that was sucked into the mouth of the Hades Beast.

Another Hades Beast beside it said, “Just swallow the magic treasure, but keep the Immortal Soul. As we return to the Greater World, we are not exposed to any news and our intelligence is very limited. We can get some information from their souls. The more of them we have, the more intelligence we can gather.”

The other Hades Beast replied, “Naturally so.”

After it finished speaking, it opened its mouth and spat out a human figure. It was the Immortal Soul of Shi Lin. But Shi Lin’s virtual entity was already crushed. Whereas the Black River Sword had already disappeared.

Shi Lin looked extremely gloomy and he was crushed between the claws of that Hades Beast along with Ben Leizi.

After a few moments, this Hades Beast was stunned.

The more powerful Hades Beast turned around and looked at it.

That Hades Beast then said with a straight face, “The strongest in the dragon tribe is the Origins Celestial Dragon. He has managed to reach the Second Tribulation of Destiny. Whether he has recovered from the Weakened Stage, I can’t confirm. Besides the Heavenly Demon Ape from the Demonic Ape tribe, the Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage has also reached the Vipralopa Stge. There’s also another Heavenly Charms Stage, but her background is unknown.”

“The remaining known Vipralopa Stage demons are the Demon Phoenix from the Parasol Tree Forest, the Golden Cicada Master, who was previously under Shen Yuan, the Earth Dragon King of the Dragon tribe and the Ten Thousand Mantra Ape.”

“It’s now another War of the Two Worlds. The Great Void Sect actively brought the Supreme Heavenly Mirror into the Black Sea and they are fighting the Dragon tribe in the Black Sea now.”

Illusory Sun Hades said calmly, “I can subtly feel that the Supreme Heavenly Mirror isn’t in the Greater World. So it’s because it has gone to the Black Sea.”

That Hades Beast then followed by saying, “There’s a new powerful figure in the human clan who gained prominence in the recent few years. He’s the leader of the Celestial Sect of Wonders, which is the rival of the Great Void Sect in the Divine Lands.”

The gazes of the bunch of Hades Beast flashed and they thought of what happened earlier.

Illusory Sun Hades nodded his head, “He’s indeed not a simple figure.”

“He is on the Lingyuan Mountains now and in the midst of a battle with the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage and that two monkeys.” The Hades Beast continued with his words, “The most important thing to note about him is that he has a sword called the Heaven-Destroying Sword. There’s rumors that it can challenge the Supreme Heavenly Mirror in the incomplete state. But no one has ever challenged it, thus there’s doubts over its full abilities.”

A huge Hades Beast beside the Illusory Sun Hades pursed his lips, “No wonder those monkeys are stuck on Lingyuan Mountains.”

There was a smaller Hades Beast beside it. It was much smaller than most Hades Beast with the original true spirit. But as it inhaled and exhaled, its demonic powers shook the Heavens and Earth. No one dared to underestimate it.

This Hades Beast looked at the Illusory Sun Hades, “What are you preparing to do? Are you going to participate in this War of the Two Worlds?”

Illusory Sun Hades replied calmly, “Return to the city first. I need someone to hold the fort there.”

This smaller Hades Beast did not seem to reckon that anything was amiss. Its brows, which were creased earlier, relaxed and it nodded its head. It turned around into the crack and the crack slowly healed too.

Illusory Sun Hades walked forward and broke through voids space before disappearing into the sky.

The bunch of Hades Beast behind him all looked into the sky and howled. Then, they followed it and entered within void space too.

This barren land suddenly turned peaceful, even though an intense battle had broken out only not long ago. The purple lights had also disappeared and only the sound of wind could be heard.

The humans and demons that were around earlier had all disappeared by now too. They seemed like dust that had been blown away.

In time and space faraway, within another region of the Barren Expanses, there was a huge patch of light cloud that floated in the sky. Above the cloud, there were many miraculous pavilions that were erected.

This was the headquarters that Shi Yu of the Great Qin Empire set up in the Barren Expanses. Right now, Shi Yu was standing in a pavilion. He looked dismal as he looked into the distance.

He was looking in the direction where Shi Lin and the Feiyi had battled intensely earlier.

The immense demonic powers could be sensed by Shi Yu even though he was far away in the Barren Expanses.

His heart sank as his royal brother, Shi Lin, was likely to have perished.

After receiving news from Lin Feng that the Hades tribe might descend in the Greater World, Shi Yu was already on high alert. Besides instructing his forces in the Divine Lands to take precautions, he even recalled the Great Qin Empire cultivators that were out on missions.

Shi Lin was on his way back earlier, but he met the Heavenly Master Sword Sect sword cultivator who was fighting the Feiyi and decided to lend a hand.

Shi Zonyue stood beside Shi Yu and said in a low voice, “Your Majesty, some of the subjects that attack Middle Worlds outside of the Greater World are uncontactable. At the same time, since their cultivations are low, it’ll take some time for them to return if they’ve received instructions.”

Shi Yu said slowly, “Our contact with Shi Lin has been cut. I believe that you also felt that vibration of demonic power earlier, am I right?”

Shi Zongyue turned dismal and nodded his head slowly.

Shi Yu looked into the distance and said, “Lin Feng was right. The Hades tribe has arrived in the Greater World. Furthermore, their powers are frightening. It’s difficult to predict what they’ll do next. We must stabilize ourselves and observe the situation.”

Shi Zongyue bowed and answered, “You are right, Your Majesty.”

Shi Yu was silent for awhile before he said, “Summon Xingyun over.”

“Xingyun?” Shi Zongyue was a little surprised. But he did not question further and acknowledged Shi Yu’s instructions.

At the same time, the rest of the powers of the human clan were rocked. They recalled Lin Feng’s warning earlier and stopped their advances immediately. They were observing the development of things.
