nishment appeared on his face.At the same time, Ginger Cloud's wild pattern had surged into the Wind Clan Ancestor's brow.And then, in the center of his brow, a wild mark also appeared, one identical...Within the Shanhaijing realm, over three years had passed since Jiang Yun and his companions entered the mirage.

To this day, no one has ever returned from the mirage alive.

Over the past three years, major clans and sects have been worried that their disciples might have dispersed to other locations after returning. As a result, they have sent people in all directions across the Shan Hai Realm to search for traces of their disciples.

Even the Wan Yao Grotto enlisted the help of the Sea Race to see if any disciples had fallen into the Nethersea.

But, everyone came up empty-handed, and could only assume that no one had ever been able to leave the mirage.

Such a situation has also occurred in the opening of previous mirage towers, so people are not too worried.

Moreover, they have more pressing matters to worry about.

The vast Kai Sea surrounding Mount Wu Island grew increasingly turbulent.

In just three years, the rise of Haikou has surpassed that of the past three hundred years, even exceeding the total for three thousand years.

This resulted in nearly 1% of the land area along the entire perimeter of Mount Five being completely swallowed by the Boundary Sea, becoming part of the Boundary Sea.

One percent of the area, although it doesn't sound like much, is a very vast region compared to the entire island of Wushan.

Although all the creatures living on it had fled before the seawater arrived, escaping their fate of being swallowed, news of the rising tide and the coming catastrophe of the Great Deluge spread gradually within Wushan Island.

Although the Five Great Sects, and some relatively larger clans, are doing their utmost to suppress and seal these messages, the effect is negligible.

Panic has permeated the hearts of all living beings, leaving them terrified and helpless. Even if they wanted to flee, there was no escape.

Therefore, they could only pin their hopes on the major sects, hoping that the powerful figures within those sects would be able to prevent the great tribulation from coming.

However, it was at this very moment that another astonishing news broke—

The Three major forces, Wan Yao Ku, Sen Luo Gui Yu and Hai Zhu, have openly formed an alliance to unify Wu Shan Dao!

Just days after the news broke, the three major factions had already chosen their first target: Nanshan Prefecture!

The three major factions each dispatched a large number of cultivators, forming an army of 60,000 cultivators and tens of thousands of demon beasts. They divided their forces into three routes and marched simultaneously towards Nanshan Prefecture!

The reason they chose Nanshan Prefecture as their first target was primarily because the Wudao Sect within Nanshan Prefecture has always been considered the weakest of the five major sects.

Besides, there are still one hundred thousand mountains in Nanshan Prefecture.

That place was like the Wan Yao Ku of the north, a gathering place for countless demons.

...the Myriad Demon Cave had long desired to bring the Ten Thousand Mang Mountains and all the demon races within it under its control, thus strengthening its own power.

However, at the time, they were unable to realize this idea because of the existence of the Wen Daozong.

Now, finally, with the opportunity presented by the impending cataclysm of the Shan Hai Great Tribulation, we can attack the Wen Dao Sect and simultaneously annex the Hundred Thousand Mang Mountains.

After hearing this news, the self-righteous Yaoshenzong, rarely lowered their stance and intended to form an alliance with Wendaozong to help them.

Because the Yaoshen Sect had already been attacked by the Sea Clan once, and was well aware that after Nanshan Prefecture fell, it would be their turn next.

Asking for help from others is just helping yourself.

However, no one expected that at this time, the Lunhui Sect would be the first to send someone to ally with the Yaoshenshang.

Although the Wheel of Life Sect has been the most powerful sect on Wǔ Shān Island throughout history, their reputation is not a good one.

Allying with them is like trying to skin a tiger, even the Yaoshhen Sect wouldn't dare agree easily. They can only find excuses to delay.

But in doing so, the Yaoshensong would naturally be unable to send anyone to help the Wendaozong.

Even the Lian Yaoshinzong had to prioritize self-preservation, let alone other forces. No one dared to help the Wendaozong at this time.

Besides, even if they went, they would be of no use except to die.

Sixty thousand cultivators from the three major forces and tens of thousands of demonic beasts, not to mention a single sect like Wudaozong, even if three or five Wudaozongs were combined, they would not necessarily be their opponents.

But every rule has exceptions!

For example, a pharmacy called DuoYaoGe in Nanzhang City suddenly closed its doors. The owner, Xia Zhongxing, along with his only son Xia Shi, quietly left Nanzhang City.

Although he didn't say where he was going, the fact that Ginger Cloud disguised himself as Gu Jiang here and treated cultivators for free is no longer a secret.

Everyone knows that ancient ginger is Ginger Cloud, and Ginger Cloud is a disciple of the Questioning Dao Sect. This time, he went to Mirage Tower.

Therefore, it's not hard to guess that Xia Zhongxing and his son left for the Wudaozong.

Xia Zhongxing's actions also led some other smaller factions within Nanshan Prefecture, especially those cultivators who had been treated by Jiang Yun in the past, to finally decide to bring their clans and fellow disciples to Wenda Zong.

While it was to repay Jiang Yun's kindness from years ago, it was also to find a support for myself in this chaotic world.

Instead of fleeing to Myriad Demon Cave and Wheel Return Sect, it's better to seek refuge in the Dao Inquiry Sect.

It has to be said, these people's choices, while not necessarily the most correct, are at least wise.

Although the three major forces' goal is Nanshan Prefecture, all the other forces they encounter along the way are also included in their annexation plans.

These forces, regardless of their strength, when faced with the joint efforts of the three major forces, only have two choices.

One path is submission, the other is annihilation!

Most of the forces chose to surrender, and those who refused were completely erased from the Shanhai Realm.

But at this moment, the Wudao Sect made a decision that was somewhat unexpected by everyone, but also quite reasonable: it would remain closed off.

Close the sect gates, activate the grand protective array, and have all disciples remain within the sect.

Even those forces that came to help were arranged by them to stay within the sect and were not allowed to go out.

As everyone thought, it was time for Master Question Dao to leave the mountain gate.

Either the disciples would be scattered and destroyed,

Then we should also take the initiative to attack, trying our best to kill the allied forces of the three major powers. At least that way we could have a little more hope of survival.

But now, such a closed-off sect, hiding within its walls, relies solely on the protective sect formation for self-preservation.

To put it bluntly, it's like a turtle hiding in its shell. It may seem safe, but once surrounded by the three major forces, there is absolutely no way out.

Even if the three major allied forces did not intervene, Kun could still completely trap and kill them!

However, since this was Wen Daozong's own decision, others naturally couldn't say much. As for the movements of Wen Daozong's people, they had no way of knowing.

Finally, the three major forces entered the territory of Nanshan Prefecture with overwhelming force, effortlessly reaching the Wudao Sect.

Along the way, through mergers and surrenders, their numbers have grown to over 100,000!

Deep within the grounds of the Summer Palace, there lies a colossal earthen globe, its soil layer reaching an astounding thickness of nearly ten thousand meters.

If anyone's eyes could pierce through this terrestrial globe, they would see, at the very center of this massive sphere, a young man with his eyes tightly closed—Jiang Yun!
