Chapter 324: Everyone Across the Secret Realm gathers!
The pressure had disappeared after the lightning struck Yasenia, so the only thing left was the floating [Primordial Energy Core]. Everyone could finally move freely.
Long Baidi shouted, "That Black Sphere is mine! Whoever tries to get it will go against our Tang and Long families."
Other influential families also began shouting how some wanted Yasenia\'s ring, others Yasenia\'s sword, and similar things.
Our group was now very sensitive, so their eyes became extremely murderous as the surrounding people wanted to literally steal Yasenia\'s things. Moreover, now that they knew the Black Sphere was related to Yasenia\'s life and death, they wouldn\'t even let people approach it.
Evelyn and Cecile didn\'t even speak as they took out their weapons, their auras unfurling with tremendous might.
Evelyn took out her spear, and, without holding back, she looked at Gerd and shot toward him spear first.
Cecile created a silver-colored bow and pulled the string, visibly gathering energy toward the silver arrow in it.
Then Evelyn and the arrow disappeared from their places and shot toward Gerd and Long Baidi, respectively.
The arrow was so fast that Long Baidi almost didn\'t react. However, even if he realized it, it was too late to dodge. He didn\'t expect to get attacked right after declaring his family name; such was his arrogance.
The arrow was approaching rapidly, and when it was about to pierce Long Baidi\'s chest, a yellow and blue energy shield appeared before him, not summoned by him.
*BANG!*
The shield exploded into fragments, but it killed enough momentum of the arrow to only damage Long Baidi and not kill him. Yet, even with the protection, Long Baidi was sent flying for tens of meters.
The person that blocked the arrow frowned, looking toward Cecile. Her blonde hair and grey eyes looked imposing, with five pairs of feathered white wings behind her. Andrea muttered, "Isla."
On Evelyn\'s side, a similar situation happened. Lost in his ecstasy from seeing Yasenia die, Gerd didn\'t react to the extremely fast Evelyn before it was too late to protect himself properly.
However, Evelyn\'s spear hit something right before it pierced Gerd\'s head.
*CLANG!*
Evelyn came to an abrupt stop as her spear landed on a brilliant white and golden shield. Her eyes went past the shield to look at the shield bearer, and her eyes widened in surprise as she shouted his name. "Jaxon!"
The five-winged Demon swung his mace, and Evelyn hastily defended.
*BANG!*
Evelyn saw her spear bend inwards as the momentum sent her sliding backward tens of meters. \'Strong!\'
Jaxon shot toward Evelyn, trying to take advantage of the situation. However, as he shot forward, he had to place his shield before himself again. A giant paw coated in rumbling yellow lightning slammed on the Transcendent-ranked shield right after.
*BOOM!*
The floor lifted as the giant body of the powerful Wolf Queen made Jaxon take five steps back. Jaxon looked surprised at the enormous wolf that appeared out of nowhere, \'What\'s with this beast!? So strong!\'
Sierra positioned herself defensively above Evelyn, growling as she showed her fangs and released a deep, intimidating aura.
Evelyn instantly ordered, "Sierra, retreat!"
Without any complaints, Sierra followed Evelyn\'s shout and retreated together to the other\'s side, looking around for threats.
Andrea said with a serious tone, "Prepare yourselves. Yasenia\'s event was too eye-catching. All the powerful groups must be arriving."
Cecile looked at the arriving groups and spoke aloud, her voice spreading in the surroundings. "If any of you wants to touch my lover\'s treasures, you will have to create a mountain of corpses big enough to tire and kill me." Her tone was so cold that it could freeze hell itself.
Jaxon and Isla looked at the Moon Phoenix and squinted, trying to compare themselves to her. However, to their absolute surprise, Cecile felt as strong as themselves. Therefore, they decided not to act for the moment and see how things developed.
As Cecile successfully threatened all the arriving people, Kali and the others took out their weapons.
Angel\'s aura ballooned, attracting everyone\'s attention, and liquid glass spread around her, creating extremely precise and profound formations. Her long blonde hair floated around as her blue eyes shined with pure light.
The feeling people had from Angel was like a senior was deploying formations.
"What the... Who the hell is her!?"
"I was scared of the people arriving, but who knew that the cutest of their group was the scariest."
A formation master stuttered, "H-How is she calculating all those formations? She is creating five formations simultaneously..."
Mirrory looked at Angel\'s figure as she worked with a raised eyebrow. This was the first time she saw Angel going full throttle in formation-making, and she was gladly impressed. \'Hoh~, such a great surprise. To think she is less than thirty years old... Gaining Jing Jing\'s inheritance is truly like giving wings to a tiger.\'
Instead of circular, the formations Angel was currently casting were linear, spreading forward and surrounding the [Primordial Energy Core]. Moreover, she also created two extra formations around her.
In less than a minute, the floor around and before Angel was littered with countless geometrical lines.
However, people\'s eyes almost popped out as the other innocuous person in their group waved her hand, commanding the tall green lady behind her. Valeria chanted, "[Spirit Queen Parade]."
The floor around them broke open, avoiding Angel\'s formation expertly, and hundreds of plant creatures climbed out of the soil, surrounding them.
The smallest group of seven and two beasts suddenly didn\'t seem so powerless as Angel\'s formations and Kali\'s army surrounded them.
Andrea put on her full-body armor and took out her Halberd, walking in front of everyone. She wasn\'t big compared to the plant lifeforms around her, but her aura and charisma were impossible to miss. She was like a general in front of the army.
Evelyn blended into the army, and Sierra stood beside Kali, Angel, and Cecile, acting as extra protection.
The small Ebirah stood near Mirrory and Valeria, the safest place to be protected. She wasn\'t strong like the others, after all.
Tang Xian and Long Baidi returned with their group, protecting themselves behind as they did that. They also took a chance to approach Isla\'s group.
Gerd also stood near Jaxon, his smile cocky and mocking as she looked at Cecile and the others.
Jaxon and Isla had carried with them a big group of cultivators, so the number of people in the aura kept increasing, approaching ten thousand.
The ten thousand cultivators were divided into various main groups.
The first group was Jaxon\'s and Gerd\'s group. It was mostly filled with demons and a small portion of humans and beast humans.
The next strongest group was Isla\'s group; the strength between hers and Jaxon\'s was small. It was filled with mostly humans and a larger-than-normal portion of beast humans.
Between them, our girls could spot Angel\'s sister, Lidia, together with Linda and many people from the academy.
Of course, there weren\'t only these two main groups. Yasenia\'s earth-shaking event also attracted other groups that hadn\'t had the chance to interact with our girls yet.
The first big group that arrived was made completely of beasts.
A female green dragon woman led them; her strength was deep and profound. If Kali didn\'t have Valeria\'s guidance as she purified in the [Life Spring], she would have released a purer Nature energy than Kali.
Although beasts normally didn\'t manifest beast parts when they transformed into humans, that didn\'t happen all the time, and some even had control to half-transform. This woman had her horns and tail manifested.
Group-wise, this wasn\'t everything.
A total of ten groups with similar strengths appeared, taking into account Gerd, Jaxon, Isla, Long Baidi and Tang Xian, and the dragon woman\'s group.
More than twelve thousand cultivators gathered in this spot, counting intelligent beasts in the mix.
The Green Dragon princess looked around, her deep green eyes clearly searching for someone. When she saw Cecile, her eyes flashed.
A pair of beautiful green dragon wings sprouted from her back, and she flew toward Cecile, ignoring the thousands of cultivators.
She also didn\'t seem to worry about the army of creatures or the formations as she approached our girls\' group with a confident demeanor.
Andrea transmitted to the others, "Let her approach. She should be helpful to us." With Andrea\'s decision, the others didn\'t do anything and let her land before them.
Carrying a refreshing fragrance with her, the Dragon Princess landed softly before them. She was tall, her body shaped like an hourglass with a pair of voluminous breasts, and her green dress was made of dragon scales, making her look regal and beautiful. Evelyn was trying to maintain her gaze up, but she couldn\'t help but sneak a glance from time to time, thinking. \'Dragons are truly the best race in the world.\'
The dragon Princess\' voice had clear arrogance and pride as she asked, "Moon Phoenix, I\'m the princess of the [Nature Dragon] race. Where is your mate? Aunty Tatyana wouldn\'t let me see her, so I could only enter this boring realm to find her on my own."
The Dragon Princess snorted, "I\'ve been searching for a month and a half, and it has been very boring. Everyone here is too weak. Fighting isn\'t even entertaining as they explode easily, especially those silly demons."
The eyebrows of the people listening couldn\'t help but twitch. \'Dangerous woman.\'
Gerd interrupted and shouted with a crazy grin, "You are searching for that slut!? Well, I have great news!"
Gerd\'s shout caught the attention of everyone. He laughed and shouted aloud, "She is DEAD! Hahaha, she was struck by the Heavens and those two strange ghosts in the sky! Blown to ashes in a single strike, hahaha."
Everyone was stunned, and thousands of eyes locked into Cecile\'s group.
"The Heavenly Dragoness is dead?"
"Impossible. Wasn\'t she supposed to be the most powerful genius of our era?"
"Hmph, the higher you climb, the worse it is when you fail. I\'m sure the Heavens struck her down for being too arrogant."
The Nature Dragon Princess moved her green slit eyes and looked at Gerd with pure disdain. "Thrash, did I let you open your filthy mouth in my, a royal dragon\'s, presence? You shall die for your offense."
A handsome man with white and black hair and heterochromatic black and white eyes appeared beside her. Below his feet, a winged albino tiger flapped majestically. "Junior Sister, don\'t be so rash, or many of our brothers and sisters may perish. He is part of the Demon faction, after all."
The Green Dragon princess sneered, "So? If I want someone dead, let\'s see who dares stop me."
Then, she flapped her wings and shot toward Gerd.
The air below her wings visibly compressed as her body blurred the moment she did so, going even faster than Evelyn\'s previous charge. Her speed was so high that most people present could only see a blur.
The shockwave explosion she produced with her acceleration was extremely loud.
Since Jaxon was near Gerd, he didn\'t want to lose one of his strongest combatants easily, so he went to his defense one more time, placing himself with his shield in the dragoness\' way.
However...
"Scram!"
*BANG!*
The Dragon Princess shouted as her punch landed on the shield creating a visible ripple.
After a big explosion, Jaxon was blown away by ten steps. No matter how strong, at the same level, the physical strength of beasts, especially high-level bloodline beasts, was always superior to other races, Demons included.
Before Jaxon reacted and got in her way again, Gerd tried to counter-attack, using the time frame their collision created. However, the Dragon Princess took a deep breath and roared in Gerd\'s direction.
"[Nature Dragon\'s Breath]!"
*BOOOM!*
A powerful green wave zoomed toward Gerd with imposing momentum. It made the air before it exploded as it zoomed extremely quickly toward the silver-haired man.
Jaxon\'s interruption gave him enough time to react, and he used his strongest defensive technique to block the beam. A blood-red shield appeared before Gerd, and the Dragoness\'s attack impacted right after.
The beam exploded the blood shield created by Gerd and landed on top of him, covering his figure.
After the attack, people looked at what happened and saw Gerd uninjured. Unlike most expected, that terrific attack didn\'t even injure the soil.
Gerd laughed and said, "Did you really think you could injure me? Hahaha."
The Dragon Princess turned around as she said, "It is always fun to see a dead man talking." Then, she flew back toward our girls.
Before people could even question what happened, all the vegetation below Gerd exploded and multiplied!
Hundreds of powerful-looking carnivorous plants attacked Gerd\'s from everywhere, leaving him no way to avoid them.
