In the Sky, the dark mass of Dharma Boat armies from the Seventy-Two Island Scattered Alliance once again advanced towards Thousand Leaf Spirit Island.
The earth-shattering cries of battle and the booming sounds of Dharma Boat cannons reverberated throughout the Spirit Dwelling Islands.
Even Moon Gazing Island, located in the Far North Lands, could faintly hear the sounds of war, like the collapse of the heavens and the tsunami.
The Wu Clan Cultivators who were Farming on the Spirit Island naturally heard the unusual noises as well. They all looked in the direction of the outside world, each one of them terrified and uneasy.
Wu Jiang frowned deeply, pacing back and forth anxiously in the Wooden Hut.
His father, Wu Hanyuan, also wore a face full of worry, fearing that the flames of war would spread here at any moment.
"Aiyah! Jiang, son, stop pacing, you're making my head spin." Wu Hanyuan sighed.
He hesitated for a moment, then continued, "How about... you send a few Clan Members out to scout and see what exactly is happening outside?"
"Being here and knowing nothing, I feel uneasy in my heart!"
Wu Jiang stopped pacing upon hearing this, and said hesitantly, "But Fellow Daoist Qin said that it's best for me to go out less during this time, to avoid trouble."
"Then how about this, you should still ask Fellow Daoist Qin for instructions and see what he says."
"Alright then."
To be honest, Wu Jiang was also somewhat worried. After all, the clashes between these Major Powers were not a joke.
Although Moon Gazing Island had many safeguards, he was still not completely Rest Assured.
And so, he came to the Main Peak and sent a Message Talisman to Qin Ming inside.
A few breaths later, the Defense Formation opened a gap, and Wu Jiang immediately stepped inside.
But upon seeing the scene inside, his entire person was stunned.
He only saw Qin Ming leisurely and contentedly sitting on a stone bench outside the Cave Residence, savoring Tea and studying a book in his hands.
He was completely calm and composed, not panicking at all.
'It's already this time, how can Fellow Daoist Qin still be in the mood to drink Tea and read?' Wu Jiang secretly grumbled in his heart, but did not dare to show it.
Qin Ming saw him arrive and asked with a calm expression, "Fellow Daoist Wu, what brings you here?"
"Cough! Fellow Daoist Qin, presumably you've also heard the commotion outside. This time, the scale is probably not small, how about… I take people out to scout around in the distance?" Wu Jiang asked.
Qin Ming pondered for a while after hearing this. He was not worried at all about the safety of Moon Gazing Island.
However, considering that information should not be too blocked, it was still necessary to grasp some of the specific situation outside.
He then stood up and said to Wu Jiang, "Since Fellow Daoist Wu is not Rest Assured, then taking people to scout around is not impossible."
"It's just that the Battle Situation outside must be extremely tragic now. A moment of carelessness, and there will be the danger of death and dissipation of cultivation."
"Fellow Daoist Wu, please prioritize caution in everything."
"Inform me as soon as possible if there is any latest news."
"If it really doesn't work out, come back to the Island. At the very least, it is still safe here."
After Qin Ming finished speaking, he took out two Defensive Magic Tools and a few Talismans for protection from death from a Storage Bag of some unlucky Cultivator, and handed them to Wu Jiang together.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Qin!"
"Then I will quickly gather people to go and handle this."
Wu Jiang gratefully accepted the life-saving items in his heart, and then hurriedly bid farewell and left.
He wasted no time in gathering a few Late Qi Condensation Stage Wu Clan Cultivators and left Moon Gazing Island to scout out the situation.
Qin Ming watched Wu Jiang and the others leave. Since the other party was doing errands for him, and this trip was not without danger, it was only right and proper to give him one or two Magical Artifact Talismans for protection.
He originally wanted to dissuade Wu Jiang, but he stopped himself. Wu Jiang's Family Clan did not understand the specific situation outside, and they were probably unable to sleep peacefully On the island.
…
Only half a day had passed.
News from Wu Jiang's side began to trickle back.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, as expected, the Battle Situation outside is extremely tragic."
"This time, I'm afraid the Zhao Family of Thousand Leaf Spirit Island is going to collapse."
"The Allied Forces of the Scattered Alliance have broken through the Tier-3 Grand Formation of Thousand Leaf Spirit Island."
"They are currently charging inside, and there are also many Cultivators who are taking advantage of the chaos to rob and are joining in the fun."
"Zhao Wuyang, the Pseudo-Core Old Ancestor of the Zhao Family, is being held back by the Pseudo-Core Old Ancestors of the other two of the Seven Great Sects/Clans. I'm afraid the Spirit Feather Sect can't protect the Zhao Family either." Upon hearing this, Qin Ming began to ponder. The other two Old Ancestors who were engaging in close combat must be from the same camp as the Thunder Origin Sect.
'Then in that case, the Zhao Family's Destiny is Exhausted.'
As time went on, Wu Jiang's news continued to come back.
They were all news of the Zhao Family's utter defeat, basically just a desperate struggle.
The Family Clan's destruction was only a matter of time.
The originally earth-shattering sounds from the outside world also gradually faded away.
But just when Qin Ming thought that the Seventy-Two Island Scattered Alliance was about to take Thousand Leaf Spirit Island in one go.
He saw Wu Jiang fleeing back to Moon Gazing Island in a panic, his face pale.
Without stopping for a moment, he went straight to find Qin Ming.
He stammered and told Qin Ming even more shocking news.
"Fellow Fellow Daoist Qin, there's a sudden change."
"Just not long ago, when the Scattered Alliance Allied Forces were about to wipe out the Zhao Family of Thousand Leaf Spirit Island."
"The Rear of the Seventy-Two Island Scattered Alliance suddenly suffered a shocking change. Following the Mu Family, two more Spirit Island Foundation Establishment Clans were massacred!"
"Even the Late Foundation Establishment Ancestor was not spared, and died a tragic death, all of them had their hearts dug out and lungs pulled out."
Qin Ming couldn't hold back his composure upon hearing this, and he hurriedly asked, "Ah? Three Families in a row were massacred, what exactly is going on?"
"Are there any clues about the murderer?"
Wu Jiang swallowed hard when he heard this, and nodded in response, "Many Cultivators nearby saw what happened when the two Families were attacked."
"The mastermind who massacred the three Families is not a Human Race Cultivator."
"But a peerless Great Beast that came out of the Beast Roar Mountain Range - the Double-Pupiled Demon Ape."
"It is said that this fiend has already reached the Tier 2 Perfection Realm, only one last step away from advancing to a Tier 3 Demon King."
"Its Strength is incomparably powerful, and it can even contend against a Golden Core Ancestor."
"Someone witnessed with their own eyes that the Late Foundation Establishment Ancestors of those two Families couldn't even withstand a single punch from the Demon Ape before they died."
"..."
Qin Ming's heart sank upon hearing this. A terrifying guess suddenly flashed through his mind, and he immediately asked, "This Great Beast, I'm afraid it didn't target those three Families for no reason, right?"
"Fellow Daoist Qin, how did you know?" Wu Jiang immediately asked in surprise.
"That's right! According to the news I've scouted, I heard that the Old Ancestor of the Mu Family and the Old Ancestors of several other Families once joined forces in the Beast Roar Mountain Range to kill a Mid Second Order White-Armed Ape."
"It was precisely the only offspring of this Double-Pupiled Demon Ape."
"This time, the Demon Ape targeted the three Families to avenge its offspring."
"The Mu Family and the other two Families probably never expected until their deaths that there was still a Demon Ape hiding in the depths of the Mountain Range, secretly making a Breakthrough to the Tier 2 Perfection Realm."
Qin Ming: "..."
!!!
After listening to the other party's words, Qin Ming was already drenched in cold sweat. Wasn't this too much of a coincidence?
Now, the Essence Blood of that White-Armed Ape has already entered his stomach and been refined by him… That peerless ferocious beast, it can't be targeting him, right? Although the Mist Illusion Realm can even isolate Divine Sense, the Double-Pupiled Demon Ape was able to accurately find three Foundation Establishment Clans in the Mist Mountain Range thousands of miles away, obviously it has some special Secret Technique Mystical Power.
'Aiyah! I'm screwed.'
'I will never leave the Island until I Cultivation to the Core Formation Stage!'
Qin Ming did not expect to be involved with such a terrifying existence.
"Then what happened after that?"
Wu Jiang saw that Qin Ming, who had always been calm and composed, also began to show unnatural expressions, and then replied, "That Demon Ape wantonly slaughtered in the Scattered Alliance Rear, and no one could stop it at all. The Allied Forces also suffered heavy losses."
"The Allied Forces had no choice but to split out a part of their forces to return to defend the Rear, and the two Pseudo-Core Old Ancestors also gave up their pursuit of Zhao Wuyang and were forced to return for aid."
"The Zhao Family still had some core disciples who escaped by chance, taking advantage of the gap."
Qin Ming sighed with emotion, "This Zhao Family is really lucky, they weren't exterminated even like this."
