Chapter 185: The Beast of Disaster
The Sword Palace of the Fourth Realm!
In the Sword Palace, the sword energy that was brewing stretched for fifteen miles!
The sword energy brewed by 'Jiu Liu' destroyed everything that passed by in an instant, and after the white light, only charred marks were left!
The sword energy swept through the surrounding area, forming a miniature whirlwind. As Wang Jin roared, the air became scorching hot!

The sword energy itself has no temperature. The reason why it becomes hot is because of its high speed! The friction with the air is enough to melt the surrounding rocks!
The rocks melted, the smell of sulfur spread out, the sword energy became brighter and brighter, releasing rolling heat waves, the high temperature advanced step by step, and exploded into the fire of hell!
Then, all the brewing was over, and the sharp sword intent descended from the sky, cutting open the Xun door, and the yin energy rose into the sky, turning the sky upside down, and forcibly opened a hole in the ground veins of the ten directions, breaking all the repression and seals with one sword!

There was an earthquake! With the surrounding area as the core, the earth veins within a hundred miles around were all in turmoil!
An earthquake that spreads over an area of hundreds of miles is actually nothing. It is quite normal. Ordinary earthquakes usually cause this level of damage.

After all, in this land, it is common for mountains to be twenty or thirty miles high. The same is true for earthquakes. Everything on the land of the Divine Dynasty is extremely large in scale.

The only thing that was a little unusual was that...at the source of the earthquake, the earth's gas erupted and surged onto the ground.

The earth's energy surged above the ground and began to affect the surrounding 'weather'.

The energies of heaven and earth mixed, and the weather began to become disordered.

This disorder directly caused a chain reaction.

Stagnant water is overflowing, the soil is thin and the roots are weak.

Gold strikes stone and breaks into pieces, scattering all over the place!
The scattered earth energy stirred the surroundings, and the yin energy in the sky became even heavier!

The surrounding environment is changing rapidly.

As a result, other land veins have also changed, and all the ground energy must be re-explored, otherwise the data will be seriously distorted!
As for the power of the earthquake, it is secondary. If it happened in a city, such an earthquake would definitely destroy houses and flatten streets. However, this is a large plain in the basin and there are no cities or settlements, so the damage can be ignored.

As for the simple earthquake, although the overall output was large, the amount might be too dispersed to hurt these practitioners in the third realm. After avoiding the first wave of impact, they had already returned to the ground.

The earthquake continued to shake and crack.

The entire ground seemed to be about to turn over, the mountains shook, were torn in half, and the cracks spread, eventually forming a canyon.

However, although the formation was huge, these people simply flew into the sky and easily avoided the impact from below.

Wang Jin was sweating all over and he let out a long sigh: "Now, they can't rely on the ground's energy to locate, right? Even if they can, they need to wait until the earthquake stops before making plans."

"Well, it should be impossible unless there are some special means." Quan Zhou nodded.

When he nodded, his eyes were full of curiosity and surprise, and he kept looking at Wang Jin.

With their support, this man cut open the earth veins with one sword!
What kind of power is this? !

A warrior of the fourth realm can do this, no wonder he can expel the ghosts of the fifth realm by himself!
The Wang family was able to stand firm in Cangzhou and become the leader of warriors. They are indeed quite capable.

On the other side, Wang Jin immediately turned around and shouted to his two younger brothers who were watching from a distance: "Second brother! Third brother! Let's set off now and catch up with them within half an hour!"

Wang Zhu and Wang Yu nodded immediately, stepped forward, carried their eldest brother on their backs, and began to rush on the rolling ground!

The other members of the alliance stayed where they were. After all, they were not combatants. They just waited to watch the performance of the Wang brothers.

Although this "not a combatant" is only compared to the children of aristocratic families.

If they really fight, most people in the same realm are no match for these technicians.

But they couldn't withstand more than a single move from Wang Jin.

The power displayed by Wang Jin at this moment also amazed them.

Even with the support of these technicians, that Sword Palace... is really powerful.

I don’t know who is more powerful compared to Shui Cangcang.

----------

At the same time, on the other side, the chain reaction of the earth's energy came quickly.

The earthquake caused the earth's veins to riot, forcing them to evacuate underground.

On the ground, the damage caused by the earthquake poses no threat to them. After all, they are not the earth that can be torn apart... they just need to stay away.

But the situation is different underground. If you face the explosion of earth energy directly, you will really die.

When I came to the ground, it was like using the entire earth as a shield. Standing on it was just a little unstable.

Ximen Gong bounced back and forth on the constantly moving ground, but he didn't wake up. It was a truly blissful sleep.

Shui Cangcang and Gao Jian stood firmly on the ground.

Previously, Gao Jian refuted Shui Cangcang's guess, and he judged that this was the work of the Wang family.

Shui Cangcang heard Gao Jian's judgment and looked at Gao Jian: "Wang family? Why?"

"This level of sudden riot cannot be a coincidence. Normal earthquakes are caused by the collapse of a certain section of the earth vein due to accumulated damage over time, but this is not the case now. So, I guess it was Wang Jin who did it."

"Interrupt the earth veins? This is really, really impressive. How about waiting for the earthquake to subside on its own? This may take about an hour, but in this state it is impossible to go deep underground to find the source of the disaster." Shui Cangcang muttered to himself, judging the current situation.

What should we do?

Wang Jin's strength was somewhat beyond expectations, and his reaction also exceeded Shui Cangcang's expectations. This man actually took action to interrupt the earth veins. This courage and strength were enough to make Shui Cangcang take it seriously.

"Let's put aside the source of the disaster for now. Going in with the underground riot will definitely lead to death." Gao Jian smiled and sat down calmly: "Wang Jin will probably arrive here within an hour to stop us. He interrupted the underground veins because he must have discovered that our progress is far ahead of theirs."

The ground kept shaking like sea waves. Gao Jian sat on the ground, as steady as if glued to the ground. Ximen Gong next to him was like a stirrer, flying up and down like fried rice in a pot. Fortunately, the cultivator from the third realm was strong enough and did not disturb his peaceful sleep.

Shui Cangcang simply flew in the air, completely unaffected by the ground. This made Gao Jian a little envious. It was great to be able to fly. Unfortunately, warriors could not learn to fly before they opened their Qi Sea and could only jump.

"So, what should we do?" Shui Cangcang was a little confused when he saw Gao Jian sitting down.

"Wait." Gao Jian said, "Can you beat Wang Jin?"

"What a joke! Even if Wang Jin is reborn and has the ability to break the earth veins, he is still no match for me." Shui Cangcang opened his folding fan and said proudly.

"That's fine. There are other people coming." Gao Jian looked into the distance.

The Zuo family...it's been three days, right? It's time for them to stand up.

Seeing Gao Jian's expression, Shui Cangcang put away his folding fan and said, "I say, is there something wrong with you? From the way I see you, it seems that your goal is not just to simply obtain the qualification to study at the Imperial College."

"It's definitely not simple. I have a grudge against the Zuo family. I really let those people go. They should have recovered from their injuries and returned now. I'm waiting for them." Gao Jian said with a smile.

"You really have such a deep hatred that you have to destroy them at their most confident point?" Shui Cangcang shook his head.

Gao Jian said nothing.

After all, what he wants to do is not to "crush" them.

What he wants to do is to kill. Everything now is just a preparation for the silent killing.

"In this case, let's use the simplest method. If Wang Jin comes to me, I will beat him back. If Zuo Si comes to me, you will be responsible for Zuo Si."

"Drive both sides back and make them stay down, and then we will wait for the earthquake to subside and go down to deal with the disaster. That's it." Shui Cangcang said.

"Okay, let's do as you say." Gao Jian nodded.

"I hope you can do as I say." Shui Cangcang looked at Gao Jian meaningfully and did not go further into the topic.

Gao Jian did not comment on this, and everything was self-explanatory.

There was no need to explain many things. Besides, who could be sure that he had ulterior motives? Even Shui Cangcang could only guess that Gao Jian wanted to defeat the Tao aspirations of those people in the Zuo family.

No matter how hard you try, no one would be so imaginative as to guess that a man like Gao Jian, who is a gifted person, would choose to fight to the death, right? The risk is too great, and the benefits are too small.

Gao Jian is a young man with a bright future and great talent. He has the Gou family of Yuezhou standing behind him, as well as a real dragon backing him up, and he is also very hardworking.

As long as he doesn't do anything stupid, his future will be bright.

Why would they risk killing someone in the Imperial College selection? This doesn't make sense!

He had no motive and could not find any reason. After all, according to common sense, killing the three young masters of the Zuo family would not cause any devastating impact on the Zuo family.

Only Gao Jian himself knows it.

This is actually part of the domino effect.

The Baishanjiang Water Clan was destroyed, the Zuo family's grassroots power was out of control, the Shui family was cracking down, the previous generation was in power, the current generation was not trusted, the designated successor died, and the Imperial Academy selection failed. Each of these things was not a big deal for the Zuo family.

But when all the things are piled together... the pressure caused at that time will expose the real flaws of the Zuo family, just like a person has a hidden injury in the knee, which is usually not visible, but when he needs to bear heavy pressure, he will cover his knee and feel pain. That is the flaw left over from the past.

Now all these things are putting pressure on the Zuo family.

When it reaches a critical point, Zuo Jia can't bear it anymore and will cover his knees or lower back.

Now, Gao Jian actually didn't know what his weaknesses were, was it his knees, his lower back, his back, or his wrists? He had no idea about any of these, but when the pressure reached a certain level, all of these would be exposed.

Only then will it be the prelude to the demise of the Zuo family and the end of the blood sacrifice in Cangzhou.

In times of chaos, a family's true strength and true weaknesses will be fully revealed.

Gao Jian doesn't believe that the Zuo family has no weaknesses or flaws.

Such a centipede has been crawling in Cangzhou for thousands of years. During these thousands of years, all kinds of chronic diseases, corruption, and filth must have existed on the body of the insect.

It's just that this worm is so powerful that these deep-rooted diseases are hidden without revealing any flaws. No one can really know about it, and I'm afraid even the Zuo family themselves don't know.

A big family, entrenched in the entire Cangzhou, with all the intrigues and tricks, who can figure out all of them? Even if a god came, it would be impossible.

Gao Jian pondered secretly in his mind, holding the rusty knife in his hand.

At this moment, the two-inch blade of the rusty knife suddenly became an inch larger.

Takami was stunned for a moment.

Then, he suddenly broke into a sweat.

No, this knife is doing something.

He defeated the three young masters of the Zuo family head-on, but the rusty sword didn't even react and didn't grow an inch.

Then he thought about his own plan here, felt that the plan was feasible, and felt happy, but there was still an inch left.

It's so unpredictable.

Takami shook his head and opened his eyes.

Fortunately, when in public, Gao Jian usually put the rusty knife back into the sheath and it was not discovered.

"Speaking of which, I have been paying attention to this knife of yours for a long time. What material is it made of? It looks like gold but it's not gold, and like iron but it's not iron. It looks like metal, but it doesn't have any toughness. Although there are traces of rust, there is no rusty smell. When metal decays, it should emit a dead aura just like a person before death. But you don't have this sign, it's really strange." Shui Cangcang said suddenly.

Gao Jian didn't say anything, he just closed his eyes and began to adjust his breathing.

Seeing this, Shui Cangcang didn't ask any more questions and also began to adjust his state.

No matter whether it is Wang Jin or Zuo Si, both of them must have traveled a long distance, so they will be well rested when the opponent is tired. The opponent will be running at full speed, and most of his energy will be spent on the road, so it will be a good opportunity to defeat him.

Just as the two of them were adjusting their breath...

Four hundred and fifty miles away, in the turbulent earth energy, a "god" stood up.

The Zuo family’s practice method was brewing in it.

This deity is composed of 365 other deities, which is the number of the Zhoutian.

There are twenty-four different kinds of gods, with fifteen of each, corresponding to the fifteen degrees of the ecliptic and the twenty-four solar terms, for a total of three hundred and sixty gods.

There are five more located on the limbs and head, representing the five elements and five directions.

A total of three hundred and sixty-five statues.

Zhou Tian, Wu Xing, Wu Fang, with a golden head, jade waist, fairy back, twelve emblems on the body, corresponding to the twelve months. There is another middle emblem on the chest, corresponding to the leap month.

It is exactly the composition of 'year'.

Yes, this is the 'year'.

It is the legendary evil beast, the monster 'Xi' that devours the vitality of heaven and earth.

This is the ultimate trump card of the Zuo family created by the three Zuo family members, who combined the three Zuo family skills of hiding the gods, possessing the spirits of heroes, controlling the energy of heaven and earth, and commanding the gods...

A star official composed of many gods.

Nian monster 'Xi'!
This is the ultimate evil god, the culprit who devours the whole year, feared by the people and dreaded by the Divine Dynasty. He is the ultimate disaster that needs to be fought against during the 'New Year's Eve' festival at the end of every year!
Although they could not simulate even a fraction of the horror of the real Xi Beast, this structure was undoubtedly that of the Xi Beast.

The Zuo family has presided over Cangzhou’s New Year’s Eve festival for two thousand five hundred years!

They had seen the Xi Beast two thousand five hundred times!

And this is the result!
