Tribulation: Robbery Thunder Worrn l
“Yeah, they just disappeared,”
“Honestly, we find it strange too.”
“How could these Golden Core families be wiped out so easily?”
“Even facing terrifying hordes of Beasts, they had the protection of a third-order formation.”
“Normally, they should have been able to hold off for a considerable time, instead of being annihilated.”
“Upon thorough investigation, we noticed traces of Demon Cultivators,”
Leng Yuexi declared earnestly.
The appearance of Demon Cultivators signified a fatal threat.
They posed danger not only to Golden Core families but also to their Triple Golden Core Sect.
It could be said that Demon Cultivators were shared enemies of all reputable sects.
“Traces of Demon Cultivators?”
“You mean, Demon Cultivators might have been involved.”
“Behind the scenes, sabotaging the third-order formations of these Golden Core families.”
“That must be the reason for the complete annihilation of the Golden Core families.”
Zhou Sui immediately understood Leng Yuexi’s words, after all, without any artificial sabotage on the third-order formation, the Golden Core families couldn’t have been wiped out so swiftly.
These Golden Core families had survived for hundreds, or even thousands of years.
They were rather experienced in dealing with Beast hordes.
Without external interference, they couldn’t have faced such a catastrophe.
Without a doubt, the Demon Cultivators intervened, secretly disrupting the third-order formation. Coupled with the Beast Hordes attack, the Golden Core families were naturally destroyed, families ruined and deceased, racial annihilation.
This was purely an act of malice, not natural disaster.
“Your point is well-taken,”
“I previously sent people to investigate those places.”
“Did notice traces of Demon Cultivators on those third-order islands.”
“Unfortunately, after looting the wealth of Golden Core families, they disappeared swiftly.”
“To this day, we have been unable to trace them.”
Shen Biqian lamented.
After all, these Demon Cultivators posed a tremendous threat to Immortal Mist City.
If they can assassinate Golden Core families, they can certainly target Immortal Mist City.
Regrettably, these Demon Cultivators were all proficient in escape and concealment techniques.
Despite their investigations, they were unable to find any hint or trace.
This has,d become a significant concern for Immortal Mist City.
“Honestly, these Demon Cultivators have set their sights on us, Immortal Mist City.”
“Fortunately, under our tight guard, they failed.”
“More importantly, you, sir, have concealed our third-order formation.”
“The Demon Cultivators can’t locate the nodes of the formation, thus unable to sabotage our third-order formation.”
Lin Yazhu spoke gravely.
Thanks to the Zhou Sui third class high-grade Array Master cultivation, he established numerous decoy formation grids.
Enough to confuse many Demon Cultivators.
Moreover, the Array Heart Gu, offspring-worm thereinafter, conferred a spirit to these third-order formations.
The formations became self-monitoring, camouflage the energy, and don’t require other Array Masters’ maintenance.
This was extremely essential.
Once a formation required maintenance by an Array Master, it could be targeted by enemies, potentially garnering awareness of formation nodes, and risk being sabotaged.
But now, the formations deployed by Zhou Sui didn’t require any maintenance.
The Demon Cultivators were stumped and didn’t know where to start.
That’s why, till today, Immortal Mist City remains unscathed.
Without damaging the third-order formation, these Demon Cultivators dare not break in.”
“From the looks of it, these Demon Cultivators truly deserve to be executed by everyone.”
“Facing a major crisis, we didn’t expect them to lend a hand.”
“But even if they didn’t offer help, we didn’t expect them to sabotage and loot secretly.”
“These are nothing but parasites,”
Zhou Sui was somewhat angry, as he felt that these Demon Cultivators were purely detrimental, do they not realize that after the Sea Clan victory, the human clan would lose their foothold in the Canglan sea area?
Though he could be a bit selfish, he would never cause harm to others and injure his clan.
These Demon Cultivators indeed deserved execution by everyone.
Their pursuits by reputable sects were with good reason.
“I believe you now realize why our Immortal Mist City rose to power so quickly.”
“In fact, threats from Demon Cultivators, Robbing Cultivators, Sea Clan Cultivators, Demonic beasts, and so on, have turned our sea area into chaos. The sole safe haven is our Tri-Star Island Group.”
“Although many third-order islands became vacant due to the annihilation of the Golden Core families.”
“These places were soon occupied by third-order demonic beasts. Ordinary cultivators simply lacked strength to reclaim them.”
“Hence, cultivators from these islands, along with their families, and numerous mortals moved to our islands.”
“Immortal Mist City now has a population of over five million.”
“But aside from Immortal Mist City, numerous mortal townships were also established.”
“These mortals, numbering more than fifty million, are dispersed across various islands.”
“Of course, the more people who joined, the faster the development of our tri-star Islands.”
Ji Bingyu provided an overview of the current situation in the Tri-Star Islands.
Due to the large number of cultivators seeking refuge from the northern sea area, the population of the Tri-Star Islands increased geometrically.
The arrival of these cultivators brought countless resources.
Almost annually, Immortal Mist City earns substantial profits from these cultivators..
