Chapter 851: Chapter 444 Attempt
Big Ocean City.
This place was once one of Hua Country’s most flourishing cities, but after experiencing the opening of the spatial channels twice, it had long become an abandoned city.
However, it was bustling with activity now.
Under the night sky, the entire city was brightly lit; a glance revealed a dense array of large machinery emitting deafening roars that echoed throughout the city.
Trucks loaded with steel reinforcement bars, concrete, and various other building materials were arriving from all directions, while other trucks were hauling away loads of construction debris.
Such a scene had been ongoing for several days, with countless workers busy around the clock.
The original city had undergone drastic changes; numerous buildings were demolished while a large number of new structures were erected.
And at the very outskirts of the city was a massive wall encircling it. The construction of the wall was progressing rapidly; one could see that the completed portions had already reached dozens of meters in height.
This seemed to be just the beginning, far from its end.
“A hundred meters! According to the plan, the height of these walls on the surface is to be one hundred meters, while the depth underground is also a significant fifty meters.”
“The construction standards for this wall are sufficient to withstand the impact of a large-yield nuclear bomb. Even a King-level Great Demon couldn’t breach these walls, and those demon creatures that can’t fly below the King Level would have no possibility of crossing them.”
High up in a towering building, various designers looked down on the city’s progress, their eyes filled with pride.
And like this rapidly under-construction city or rather shelters, there were over ten more throughout Hua Country.
…
The intense flames seemed almost capable of igniting the air.
Transformed into a small bird, the Li Fire Essence spewed golden flames. Within the flames, even the divine metal, which once withstood the intense heat, melted into a liquid.
Invisible forces pulled at the molten metal, which extended and changed continually, as if an unseen giant hand was continuously kneading and molding it, eventually shaping it into an incense burner the size of a head.
“Done!”
Su Nan heaved a sigh of relief, showing a hint of joy in his eyes as the Li Fire Essence finally completed its task. It dimmed as it retracted the flames, then landed on Su Nan’s shoulder with a gesture as if seeking credit.
Su Nan patted the little guy to comfort it, then took it into his body. At that moment, eighteen identical incense burners were neatly arranged in front of him.
“The first step has finally been completed. Now that I have a carrier for the Divine Dao Ritual Artifact, the next step is to place these burners into my Divine Dao Ritual Artifact. Using the artifact, I will nurture these burners, then imprint them with my mark. It’s the quickest method.”
After storing the incense burners, Su Nan stood up and walked to the Grand Hall, wherein he placed all eighteen pieces into the Offering Tool Space of the Divine Dao Ritual Artifact.
The nurturing process of the Divine Dao Ritual Artifact took time, so he no longer paid it any attention and turned to leave.
“A second Saint Level expert has appeared!”
Returning to where he was staying, Su Nan picked up his phone and logged into the forum, the first thing that caught his eye was the latest developments regarding the demon clan.
A second demon saint had emerged, which was expected by Su Nan.
However, what surprised him was that this breakthrough came from a demon of East Chen State!
“Apart from the Demon Monarch in East Chen State, there is now a second demon saint. I wonder what impact this will have on the Human race?” Su Nan couldn’t help but think of the three Elders in the Great Yu Dynasty.
The Demon Monarchs of the Twelve States had survived from Ancient Times and were barely clinging to life, surely in poor condition and not likely to rashly strike at humans. But this newly emerged demon saint was different.
While the demon would certainly also have been in a decrepit state before the breakthrough, it would inevitably return to its peak upon advancing to a higher realm.
It was uncertain whether East Chen State’s Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition could withstand such a being.
With these thoughts, he continued scrolling, and soon enough, he indeed found a post regarding the Great Yu Dynasty.
“The Imperial City of the Great Yu Dynasty has closed off once more, entering a state of martial law, with no one allowed to enter or exit.”
Other players didn’t understand what had happened, but Su Nan knew the reason immediately.
Clearly, one of the Great Yu Dynasty’s Ancestors was also preparing for a breakthrough!
That seemed normal. With a demon saint emerging from Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, the Great Yu Dynasty would naturally not continue to sit idly by.
“I wonder if it will be a success this time?” Su Nan felt some anticipation.
If the old expert from the Great Yu Dynasty could succeed, it would mean there was a path ahead after reaching the peak of Emperor-level in the Bloodline Path, which was also good news for him.
“It’s a pity that I’m not in East Chen. Otherwise, I could try to assist with my foreknowledge,” he recalled the time he helped the Divine Venerable One in the Illusion Realm of the Ancient God Tomb breakthrough above the god level.
His ability to foresee the future had aided a God Level expert in their breakthrough; perhaps it could help a Saint Level expert, even if the chances were slim.
To know the outcome in reality, foreknowledge could also provide the same insights, but it couldn’t change anything.
As he continued to read, he quickly took notice of his avatar’s information.
“Deity Wang Nan has arrived in the land of extreme territories!”
“Deity Wang Nan is too powerful, he can even slay Emperor-level demonic beasts!”
A photo of his avatar battling a demonic beast drew the attention of countless Players, with many gasping in admiration at Wang Nan’s display of strength.
Clicking into the post, Su Nan spent a short while reading it and couldn’t help but shake his head.
It turned out that after entering the extreme territories, his avatar no longer operated covertly but went straight to the sites of demonic outbreaks, taking action in succession.
Afterward, it even entered the demon clan’s Domain, capturing several Demonic Emperors, which provoked many powerful individuals from the demon clan to furious pursuit, risking the suppression of their strength to chase into the areas covered by the human’s Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition, causing quite a commotion.
