Chapter 879: Pure Luck

The earth vein under the Yanlin City had been showing strange signs a long time ago. If not for the suppression of the Formation Grandmasters, the city might have already been destroyed when the earthquakes struck earlier!

After Shang Xia raised his suggestion, the Martial Dipper Realm experts didnt agree immediately. They wanted to know if the core region of the city would be alright if they released the suppression.

Actually, Shang Xias suggestion wasnt something they never thought of. Many of them had the same thought in mind. However, the moment they released the suppression of the earth vein, they were afraid that the entire region would come tumbling down.

As the core region of the city was located at a key point in the earth vein, it should be the sturdiest region. If not for the fact that they managed to piss off the Worlds Will, the core region of the city wouldnt be destroyed no matter how strong the earthquakes were.

However, the Azure Flame Worlds Will started its self-preservation method and completely gave up the most important earth vein in the Southern Yanlin Continent. The most secure location turned into the most dangerous spot, and the core region of the city that was located at a key spot on the earth vein was the first to be destroyed the moment it collapsed!

What Shang Xia planned to do was to let the rest of the earth crumble while protecting the core region of the city. If they managed to achieve that, they would be able to achieve their goal of stalling the beast tides!

In order to carry out his plan, Shang Xia would have to withstand the strongest tremor from the earth vein below!

The Martial Dipper Realm experts of the Azure Ascension World exhausted a great deal of inner qi after so many battles and they would rather not fight if it was possible. They would rather take the chance to restore their depleted inner qi. Under such circumstances, Shang Xias suggestion was actually the best idea with the premise that he could maintain the core region of the city.

Despite how sure he sounded, many people were feeling a little doubtful. However, the peak-tier experts of the Azure Ascension World who had experienced Shang Xias abilities before chose to trust him. Under the lead of Yifeng, Jiu Du, Lu Wuzi, and Huang Jinghan, the Formation Grandmasters on the platform were deployed to fully support Shang Xia. With his command, they released the suppression of the land below.

The next instant, a violent storm of world origin erupted deep down in the earth.

Earthquakes tore the land apart as lava burst into the air. Seawater that was brought about by the Sea Beast Tide also poured into the land. Hundreds of miles around the core region of the Yanlin City turned into hell on earth.

A good portion of the beast tides were swallowed by the disasters and nearly every single low-level spiritual beast died. Those of the third and fourth ranks suffered heavy losses and not even the fifth ranked spiritual beasts could remain unaffected in the face of such destruction. Fleeing in all directions, a white mist started to fill the area from the mix of lava and sea water. It quickly shrouded the entire region and it even affected ones divine will.

The flying ships that were flying straight for the core region stopped in mid air and it seemed as though they were contemplating if they should throw themselves into the mess.

They stopped for a good second or so, but they eventually chose to push on.

It didnt take long before they flew deep enough into the mist that they could see the core region of the Yanlin City. They were shocked to discover it was mostly intact. The hearts of the experts of the Azure Flame World trembled. They never thought that it would be possible for the Outsiders to survive in the chaos.

However, the core region of the city remaining intact didnt mean that the Outsiders were perfectly alright. They felt that the Outsiders should have been greatly affected by the outburst from the Worlds Will earlier and they wouldnt retain much of their fighting strength. Perhaps, it was the best time to take them all down!

The experts on the flying ships seemed to have reached the same conclusion as they sped up towards the core region.

In the core region of the Yanlin City, Martial Dipper Realm experts stared at each other in utter shock. Their jaws dropped in fright.

Shang Xia didnt seem to notice the look on their faces as he reached out to recall his Five Element Ring. he sat on the ground and started to circulate his Five Element Art without a care in the world as the dense heaven and earth spiritual energy rushed into his body in an endless tide.

Huang Jinghan coughed lightly at the side, Everyone, the danger of the beast tides has been dealt with, but the experts of the Azure Flame World are still bearing down on us. Its not time to let our guards down yet.

The moment the words left his lips, a loud howl came from a region that had already been covered with water. Rocks, mud, and the water itself burst open as a giant beast that somewhat resembled a tiger or leopard emerged. It was far larger than an ordinary tiger or leopard, and it rushed straight up into the air.

Who would have thought that the flying ships of the Azure Flame World would arrive right on cue? The debris slammed right into them with extreme force.

They were fortunate the ships were built with special materials. There were tons of restrictions drawn on them as layers upon layers of runes flashed. The debris might have caused the ships to sway from side to side, but it didnt cause too much harm.

It was a shame the debris wasnt actually the real threat. The giant beast came crashing straight into them.

Originally, the beast had been buried beneath the earth because of everything that happened. Fortunately, it already reached the fifth rank and despite being buried alive, it was able to promptly deal with the threat. It swallowed the earth around it and after getting over its initial panic, it burst forth with all its might and leaped into the air above.

Who would have thought that before it could rejoice from saving itself, it would slam directly into one of the flying ships of the Azure Flame World?

Desperately swinging its claws around, the beast tried to stop itself from falling as it spun several times in the air. It actually managed to tear a hole in the bottom of the flying ship before rushing through the opening it created.

With the dense mist surrounding the flying ship, the attention of the Martial Sages on it was placed on the core region of the city. None of them expected a rank five spiritual beast to emerge from the ground below and tear its way onto their ship!

By the time they reacted, the beast was already somewhere in the ship. After narrowly escaping death earlier, the beast was completely on edge. It didnt differentiate between friend and foe as it started a massacre the moment it arrived on the ship.

One had to know that there were many low-level cultivators on the ship to maintain its operation. Martial Ancestors and Martial Sages werent the only ones on board. Facing a rank five spiritual beast that was rampaging about indiscriminately, they were basically fish on a chopping block.

Of course, Martial Sages quickly responded to the appearance of the beast. However, they needed some time to arrive and in several short breaths, dozens of low-level cultivators were slain.

As soon as they arrived, they released their auras all at once. With the auras of several Martial Sages emerging, the rank five spiritual beast received no small amount of shock. It started to run, and it crashed recklessly around the ship. By the time it was finally stopped by the Martial Sages, the flying ship was rocking unsteadily in the air and looked like it would crash the next second.
