Chapter 1084: Great Enemies Coming
As a great war was about to break out in the Sea Flower Realm, countless shadows covered more than half of the mysterious realm's area, which originated from hundreds of flying artifacts flying into the realm.
All the flying artifacts were pitch black, but there was only one that was the most eye-catching among them. In addition to its large size compared to the others, it was equipped with various weapons, such as cannons and others, and it seemed to be preparing for war.
There were two giant black flying beasts flanking the flying artifact, and both of them looked like dragons, but they were not dragons either. Their heads were more like a serpent, and they only had two legs with two wings spread wide to the side; even their tails looked like spearblades.
At the front end of the flying artifact stood a tall man of around 7'11", his entire burly body covered in pitch black armor. His bloodshot eyes continued to watch the mysterious tower, and a slight smile appeared on his serious face. "Elders, are Long Feng and the young masters of the beast clans really in this tower? Why would they bother going to a useless place like this?"

An old man with a wrinkled face answered him first. "Young Master Xie Shaoguang, your father does not know the reason behind Long Tianhuo and the others' decision to send their sons and daughters to this tower, but he and the others have received accurate information about their departure, so they should be inside now, and they have probably reached the center area of this tower."
"Young master, this tower is not as useless as you think." Xie Shaoguang immediately turned to the old woman standing beside the old man. "In fact, there is not much information about this tower, when it was built or who built it.
However, there is a lot of information stating that the beasts inside this tower are different from ordinary beasts, and they will drop many kinds of valuable items after we kill them. Furthermore, numerous reports indicate that the immortals reside beyond this tower, and they hold complete control over it."
"Immortals, huh?" Xie Shaoguang muttered as he narrowed his eyes towards the sky. "Elder Yong and Elder Min, do you think our ancestor has ever met those immortals before? He is one of the oldest living beings who is still alive today, and he has lived through countless eras."
Xie Yong shook his head in response to his question. "Young master, you know that ancestor Zuzhou is very reclusive, and he hardly ever talks about his past, even though we are his descendants, so we don't know much about his past life."
"I see."
"Young master, if I remember correctly, our ancestor took in two disciples from these upper realms several hundred years ago." Once again, Xie Shaoguang turned to Xie Min, who immediately provided an explanation. "They belonged to the same race as our devil race, and he saw that their potential was great, so he was willing to accept them as his disciples.
He also ordered them to rule these upper realms, but I have never heard of their success."
"I am not interested in those two; therefore, there is no need for you to bring them up in my presence." Xie Shaoguang immediately raised her right hand and shot her devil qi into the sky, signaling her subordinates to land their flying artifacts.
Sometime later, all the flying artifacts had landed around the mysterious tower, and thousands of people got off them. Xie Shaoguang, followed by Xie Min and Xie Yong, immediately rushed into the tower. The two black beasts' bodies shrank rapidly before perching on his shoulders, and the people followed behind their leader.

"Hmm?" Xie Min and Xie Yong instantly frowned as soon as they entered the tower.
Xie Shaoguang immediately questioned the two. "What happened? Why do you guys look confused?"
"Young master, based on our information, the strength of the beasts on the 1st floor should be in the emperor realm. However, their strength turned out to be at the low heavenly god realm, so we are confused by that."
"Oh?" That surprised Xie Shaoguang for a moment, but he suddenly grinned widely. "They're just low-heavenly god realm beasts, right? Isn't it easy for us to destroy them?"
After he said that, Xie Shaoguang took out his extremely long black sword and placed its back on his shoulder, but he immediately flew into the air before moving to the center area of the floor. Seeing that, Xie Yong, Xie Min, and the men immediately flew into the air, filling the surrounding area of the sky.
After that, Xie Shaoguang enveloped his sword with his devil qi and thrust it downwards; a pitch-black light immediately shot out from his sword and shot towards the ground before penetrating it. However, the light continued to spread, rapidly turning the entire floor black.
In a few minutes, the entire area was completely black, and countless black mouths with sharp teeth emerged from the ground before devouring all the ground and water beasts. Additionally, countless black tongues extended to the sky, wrapped around those flying beasts, and pulled them into those black mouths.
With just one technique, Xie Shaoguang eliminated all the beasts on the floor, causing Xie Yong and Xie Min to shake their heads with a smile. Meanwhile, their subordinates cheered in joy after witnessing their master's actions, and everything disappeared again as soon as he drew his sword back.
"Easy peasy! I only need to use one percent of my strength to kill them all." Xie Shaoguang then turned to his subordinates. "What are you guys waiting for? Qiuckly! Collect those items now!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
Xie Yong then warned Xie Shaoguang. "Young master, the beasts' strength and numbers will increase every ten floors, so don't waste your energy before we reach the middle of this tower, and you can let our subordinates handle them while we watch from afar."
"Hahaha!" Xie Shaoguang laughed and put his sword back in. "I just want to test my strength, but these beasts are too weak compared to the demons and devil beasts in our ancestor's secret realm, so I won't waste my energy to face them anymore.
However, you two must force them to work harder because I can't wait to kill Long Feng and the others, especially since I need their beast cores for my devil techniques to break through to peak level."
Since there were so many of them, they quickly finished collecting the items, so Xie Shaoguang immediately led them to the second floor.
Shortly after they left, Huang Lingzhu, Sheng Ming, and several other immortals appeared on the first floor. Unlike the time lord, who still looked relaxed, the goddess of life and the others looked very serious, especially since they did not expect Xie Shaoguang to be so powerful. His cultivation had also reached the low supreme god realm, and his devil techniques were equally terrifying.
Moreover, the cultivation of Xie Shaoguang's two bodyguards had also reached the high supreme god realms, and the cultivation of their subordinates was also all in the five god realms.
"Aren't you going to stop them, Lingzhu?" Yan Xian asked with a frown.
Shen Ying also spoke directly to the time lord. "Lingzhu, I agree with Yan Xian, and I believe we should do something about those devils. They are much stronger than Long Feng and the others, and they won't be able to protect Ling Yun if they go head-to-head. Their numbers and strength will allow them to catch up with them in less than a week, so we must hinder them."
"Moreover, Ling Yun holds the key to halting the chaos, so I will take action even if you are against it, lest their actions lead to the destruction of everything." Ai Qing took that statement seriously, particularly considering Huang Lingzhu's apparent hesitation to make a decision.
Unlike them, Sheng Ming didn't want to waste time, and she immediately disappeared from their sight to meet Ling Yun and the others, especially since the situation was so critical. In fact, she didn't need to do that, especially since he had already assigned Zhou Yu to keep monitoring outside the tower, so they already knew about Xie Shaoguang's and the others' arrival.
'Sigh! I was negligent about Xie Zhouzu and his descendants, and their strength is far greater than I had previously expected.' Huang Lingzhu then turned to the other immortals. "You guys can monitor their movements, and I will also do something to slow them down, so they won't be able to catch up with Ling Yun and the others so quickly."
Ai Qing and the other immortals instantly disappeared from the time lord's sight, but Huang Lingzhu was still standing in her spot with her hands moving around as if she were writing something in the air, and the mysterious tower shook quite violently after a golden light appeared out of nowhere and entered the tower wall.

Meanwhile, Sheng Ming had already reached the 42nd floor, where Ling Yun and the others had just arrived. She promptly informed them about the arrival of Xie Shaoguang and the others. She also informed them about their overall numbers and strength, which shocked Long Feng and the others.
"Honestly, I already know about them, and they are indeed terrifying." Sheng Ming was surprised by Ling Yun's answer, but he then pointed to the spirit of void. "Ever since my father-in-law told me about them, I have asked Zhou Yu to monitor the situation outside the tower, and he witnessed Xie Shaoguang single-handedly killing all the beasts on the first floor from inside the void."
"I see."
Ling Xi then asked Sheng Ming. "Will Huang Lingzhu do something to help us?"
"Lingzhu has done something to slow them down. However, you guys still can't relax, and all of you must reach the 51st floor and above as quickly as possible."
"All right, thank you for your warning, and we will start cleaning up this floor right now." After that, Ling Yun led everyone to charge towards those beasts, and none of them held back their strength.
"Hmm?" Ling Xi suddenly raised her eyebrows as she sensed something enter Ling Yun's body, and she glanced slightly towards Sheng Ming, especially since she could guess that it was her doing. Even so, she didn't say anything, and the goddess of life immediately disappeared again.
