"boom!"
The viscous liquid and broken film splattered everywhere.
Then, under the watchful eyes of countless terrified people, the mass began to wriggle, swell, and deform.
A few seconds later, a monster stood up.
It is about two meters tall, and its body looks like it is pieced together from several twisted insect segments. It is covered with a carapace-like exoskeleton, and its six compound eyes are irregularly distributed on its head. Its mouthparts are a pair of sharp, constantly opening and closing chelicerae.
It has a pair of thin membrane wings on its back, but it doesn't seem to be used to flying and just flaps them meaninglessly.
The monster let out a sharp screech, its compound eyes turning and locking onto the densely packed crowd below.
"A monster! A monster!!!"
The screams finally broke through the crowd's last line of rationality.
Panic spread like a plague.
People began to flee frantically, pushing, shoving, falling, and trampling.
The sounds of car horns, crashes, cries, and screams mingled together.
Traffic came to an instant halt, and the intersection turned into a living hell.
The monster leaped from the rooftop, its sharp limbs piercing the roof of a car below.
It seemed particularly interested in metal, tearing open the car door with its chelicerae and dragging the screaming driver out—
"Pfft."
Blood splattered.
Similar scenes are playing out simultaneously around the world.
In Times Square, a dozen eggs landed between electronic billboards.
The hatched monsters were deformed creatures, a mixture of flesh and machine, which entangled the terrified crowd with their tentacles and dragged them into the shadows.
Beneath the Eiffel Tower, a monster resembling a giant moth hatched from its eggs, its wings flapping to scatter shimmering, fluorescent scales. Anyone who came into contact with the scales began to have their skin ulcerate.
In Shenzhou, most of the eggs that fell from the cracks in the sky above the river fell into the water, but soon the river surface began to churn, and some huge shadow with countless tentacles swam in the water.
On the grassland, a herd of migrating wildebeest was scattered by a monster that fell from the sky, and the air was thick with the smell of blood.
The worldview of ordinary people completely collapsed at this moment.
The cell phone signal was intermittent, but the internet was already in an uproar.
Although many social media platforms have taken immediate action to block related content, photos, videos, and live stream clips are still spreading like wildfire.
[The end of the world! It really is the end of the world!]
Where is the government? Where is the army?
What are those things?! Aliens?!
[Help! I'm in Shinjuku! A monster is chasing us!]
I saw it! They hatched from eggs that fell from the sky!
The emergency number is busy! All lines are busy!
The army has been deployed! I saw it on TV!
Indeed, the response of the militaries of various countries has been quite swift.
Chapter 335 Taking Everyone Back to the Divine Land
Faced with the sudden crisis, the state apparatus was the first to mobilize, as if it had been prepared in advance to deal with some terrifying monsters.
Groups of fully armed troops began sweeping through the streets, and all sorts of unprecedented weapons began to appear, reaping the lives of one strange beast after another.
Although there were occasional losses, the situation was quickly brought under control.
The ordinary people rescued by the soldiers also wept with joy. They had not been abandoned, and the country's strength was greater than they had imagined!
Suppressed cheers also erupted online.
……
Shangguan Yun casually destroyed the alien beast eggs that had fallen near the school.
In his perception, these newly appeared beasts were not very strong; most of them were just ordinary wild animals, with only a few large ones at the first or second tier.
The students at the school have not yet witnessed the terror of this strange beast firsthand, since the eggs turned to ash before they even fell to the ground.
After the burst of monster eggs, the cracks in the sky disappeared, but they remained firmly suspended in the sky.
Shangguan Yun planned to first gather the people he knew together to prevent them from getting hurt, and then try to destroy the cracks in the sky.
After all, he was still unsure whether he wanted to let ordinary people around the world know about the other side of the world.
Because of this single wave of impact, countless people have been given birth to many monsters due to negative emotions, and Yato is already extremely busy.
Whether or not to expose the existence of cultivators to the general public is a decision for professionals to make, and Shangguan Yun's priority is naturally to protect his own people.
"Kaguya, I'll take you to the Shangguan family in Shenzhou first. Ishigami, Fujiwara, if you'd like, bring your families with you."
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say, Chairman."
Although she felt shy and at a loss about going directly to Shenzhou to meet her parents, Kaguya knew what was important and what was urgent. Then she looked at Fujiwara Chika, who seemed a little lost.
This girl, who usually has a strong heart, was completely stunned by the sudden apocalypse.
"Fujiwara, you need to contact your parents right now. Only the chairman can protect us."
"Okay, I'll contact them right away."
Fujiwara Chika nodded quickly and immediately took out her phone to contact her parents and sister.
Yuya Ishigami contacted his parents. Although he was at odds with them for some reason, he couldn't just stand by and watch them get into danger.
Once the group had made their decision, Shangguan Yun didn't linger. He greeted them and then disappeared.
Then a lot of people appeared in the student council room.
He brought over a whole host of apartment residents, including the Fujiwara Chika family, the Ishigami Yu family, Hayasaka Ai, the Yukino Yukinoshita family, Tang Keke, the Nishimiya family, Kobayashi, the Takasu Ryuji couple, the Kato Megumi family, Kirisu Mafuyu, and Aoto Yugiri.
He even brought Eriri's family and Kasumigaoka Utaha's family over.
Some people were still looking terrified when suddenly they found themselves in an unfamiliar place.
The ordinary residents in the apartment were not harmed. After all, Qing Tang Xi Wu was a fourth-tier beast, and the first wave of these beasts could not cause any damage.
Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha's parents were completely bewildered; they didn't recognize the people in front of them.
Yukino Yukinoshita and her parents also looked shocked.
Shangguan Yun didn't have time to explain anything and directly handed the task of explaining to Qing Tang and Xi Wu.
As for Gabriel and the others, Shangguan Yun didn't bother with them. Those angels and demons already possessed fourth-tier strength and were not in any danger at the moment. Furthermore, there were Heaven and Hell behind them, so they could retreat at any time.
Hikigaya and Kaito Kuroba have also taken their families to the base, where their older brother, a seventh-tier powerhouse, is located, so there will be no danger for them.
As for the others, he couldn't be bothered to worry about them anymore. These were just people he was closer to and therefore received more protection from him in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
He is now an eighth-order being, and he does not feel any fatal threat from this crisis, so he is still confident that he can resolve this troublesome situation.
Shangguan Yun had already discussed it with his parents, so before everyone could process the information about this shattered worldview, he directly led everyone through space back to the Shangguan family in Shenzhou.
After settling everyone in, especially Kaguya, Tohru, Hayasaka Ai, Ai, and Kanna—those closer to him—into his mother's care, Shangguan Yun finally felt relieved of his last worries.
As long as the higher-ups decide to open up the existence of cultivators to ordinary people, he can frantically gain experience.
Yes, it's all about gaining experience!
After casually destroying the fallen monster eggs, he discovered that his experience bar could increase.
This isn't a crisis at all; it's practically handing him an opportunity!
If it weren't for his social relationships with this world, he would have already manifested his divine power and wreaked havoc on the human realm...
Of course, it's also because he doesn't really care about the monster eggs that are falling down now.
As for rushing directly into the crevice, he wouldn't do something so mindless.
Although there was no fatal crisis, he still sensed several auras of the same level from the depths of the crack, but it seemed that the other party was not able to come over for the time being.
Even if he is 90% certain, he will not take the risk easily.
"What did those people up there say? Should cultivators intervene?"
Shangguan Yun looked at his father.
There's no way to count on Mom; she's currently busy fussing over Kaguya and the other girls, making them all blush.
She even secretly glanced at Yukino Yukinoshita, who was holding Mira and talking to her family, as well as several other outstanding-looking girls, wondering about their relationship with her son.
As for the end of the world?
Why should a woman like her worry about such things?
If even the Shangguan family, with its eighth-tier experts and two seventh-tier powerhouses, can't hold up the sky, then this world deserves to be destroyed...
"That old guy and a few others believe that cultivators don't need to intervene yet, as the army can handle the current situation. They plan to wait and see before making a decision."
"That's just like the style of those people."
Shangguan Yun remained noncommittal. In any case, he was just a military general, only responsible for killing. How to maintain social stability was not his concern.
"However, since this has happened, it doesn't really matter whether or not the cultivators' existence is exposed."
The sky has cracked open, and strange beasts have emerged, so there's really nothing left to hide.
"I reckon it'll be our turn to make a move next."
A sharp glint flashed in Shangguan Che's eyes. He was a cultivation fanatic and a battle fanatic. After becoming the head of the family, he didn't even have time to explore the other world. Now that he had broken through to the late stage of the seventh rank, he had long been itching to make a move.
Chapter 336 Murong Xue and Her Daughters-in-Law
"Xiao Xue Nai, what exactly is your relationship with Shangguan Jun?"
Yukino looked at her younger sister with curiosity, and Yukino's parents also perked up their ears.
To be able to teleport such a large group of people directly to the Divine Land is simply divine!
How could my own daughter know such a divine person?
Their family found the biggest benefactor right during the apocalypse!
"Senior Shangguan is the student council president of our school, and we... you could say we're friends..."
Holding Mira in her arms, Yukino Yukinoshita looked at her older sister with a hint of helplessness.
"Really? Then why is his pet so affectionate towards you?"
Yukino looked suspicious; no matter how she looked at it, the relationship between her younger sister and that Shangguan classmate seemed unusual.
"Really, at most it's just that the place I'm renting now is Senior Shangguan's apartment, and he's still my landlord."
"Oh~ landlord and pretty girl tenant, I get it~"
Yukino Yukinoshita made a meaningful sound, and Yukino Yukinoshita's parents' eyes lit up.
They couldn't wait for their daughter to marry that immortal, so they could soar to the heavens.
"elder sister!"
Yukino Yukinoshita was somewhat angry.
"This is the chairman's house, you'd better not say anything out of line."
Upon hearing this, Yukinoshita Haruno and her parents immediately fell silent.
If they upset the gods, they'll be thrown out again.
They are no match for those terrifying monsters outside.
Fujiwara Moeha excitedly pulled her older sister Fujiwara Chika along, asking her all sorts of questions, and her gaze toward Shangguan Yun became even more adoring.
Fujiwara Chika was so dizzy from being shaken by Fujiwara Moeha that she became disoriented.
She was totally confused too!
