Chapter 487: Prelude to Provocation - A Weighty Message Emerges
In Baijingzhou, the originally clear sky was now filled with lightning. These lightning bolts were daunting, their ink-black color causing people's hearts to race, as if the entire sky was about to be torn apart.
Ordinary people felt a sense of oppression, but huanling shi and yingling were different. They could sense that something was about to tear through the sky.
This was not an illusion but their natural perception of the outside world.
One or two Spirit Awakener might have been mistaken, but all the Spirit Awakeners felt it, whether they were newly awakened or the strongest Seventh Rank Spirit Awakener in Baijingzhou.
Thus, in the first moment, the entire Baijingzhou was mobilized.
Baijingzhou, one of the many provinces under the imperial court's rule, was considered a mid-tier province in terms of strength. The most powerful expert they boasted was a Seventh-Rank Spirit Awakener, who would be an unparalleled figure in a place like Nanliangzhou.
Crack!
A thunderclap erupted, and a massive hole was torn through the sky above the state capital of Baijingzhou.
Xie Chen, the most powerful Spirit Awakener in Baijingzhou, swiftly arrived at the scene accompanied by dozens of Sixth Rank Spirit Awakeners, including the leaders of prominent families, sect heads, and gang leaders, all of whom were exceptionally formidable.
"Who are you? Why did you enter Baijingzhou in this manner?" Xie Chen cautiously asked.
"Human? Ha, it seems time has passed, and you've forgotten about us, the Spirit Clan." A mocking voice echoed from the hole.
A tall figure emerged, clad in armor that resembled flesh, with a twisted shadow floating behind it. Several thick tentacles writhed in the air, and its appearance was not that of a human but rather a monster.
"Spirit Clan?"
The crowd, seeing the monstrous being, felt a sense of confusion. They had no idea what the Spirit Clan was.
But as the strongest, Xie Chen's mind immediately recalled the term "Spirit Tribulation."
"The Spirit Tribulation that occurs every 3,600 years!" Xie Chen said instinctively.
"Looks like you still have some knowledge. I thought you all died out back then," the monster said with a sneer.
Xie Chen was naturally startled by the response. Although he didn't know what the Spirit Tribulation was, he knew how terrifying it was, as his Yingling had died due to the Spirit Tribulation.
"Attack! We mustn't let him leave alive. If he escapes, we will all die." Xie Chen said, leading the charge.
The monster swung its long blade, a flash of blood appearing. If Xie Chen hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been split in two.
The monster was indeed a demon, but not a common one. It was an elite Bloodthirsty Demon, masquerading as a part of the Spirit Tribulation, falsely claiming to be a member of the Spirit Clan.
"Have you ever considered that I am not the true source of the tribulation you speak of? I am merely a fragment, like the rest of my clan," the Bloodthirsty Demon retorted sarcastically.
"Once I capture you, you will know true agony." Xie Chen's expression hardened, and he launched another attack with his Heroic Spirit.
To put it simply, his combat experience was rich, fitting for someone from a world where the weak were preyed upon by the strong. If you couldn't kill, you wouldn't survive. Those who became leaders were built on a mountain of bones.
The Bloodthirsty monster was indeed less skilled in combat techniques than Xie Chen, but it didn't require advanced skills; it just needed to know how to inflict damage.
It didn't even activate a shield. As it took damage, its attack power gradually increased.
For the Bloodthirsty Spirit, it hadn't unleashed its full strength, using at most one percent of its abilities. If it were in a war state, Xie Chen wouldn't be facing a Bloodthirsty Spirit in gargoyle armor but a Bloodthirsty Spirit piloting a demon mech, sweeping through the entire state capital.
The Bloodthirsty Jingui's purpose in coming here was not for a massacre but to deliver a message.
Of course, for the message to be taken seriously, it had to come at a cost to Baijingzhou. Otherwise, the imperial court wouldn't pay attention.
After all, the court was a web of intricate interests, and the so-called end-of-the-world calamity was secondary.
They needed to understand that not only would their interests be lost, but their lives would be at risk.
"Die!"
"Run!"
Dozens of Spirit Summoners immediately scattered and fled. The reason was simple: the Bloodthirsty Spirit Beast had grown bored and killed Xie Chen with a single strike.
