"Boom!"
The gates of the Xuanling Realm were opened again, and countless powerful figures from the Xuanling Realm had already gathered at its entrance.
It was precisely through their combined secret technique that they sent the message into the Xuanling Realm, allowing Long Chen and the others to withdraw the grand array, and the two worlds finally reconnected.
When the gate opened, Ming Haotian's aura filled the air. At that moment, Long Chen and the others immediately sensed something was wrong and understood why the academy had urgently recalled them.
"Ming Haotian is no longer the same as before."
Sensing Ming Haotian's aura, Long Chen's heart shook violently. The sky was still the same, but it was no longer so pure; it seemed to have become filthy and violent. The air was filled with the scent of slaughter. Here, it seemed people would become more violent and bloodthirsty.
The world was filled with an aura Long Chen detested. Standing in this area, Long Chen immediately felt targeted. When he looked up at the sky, the once bright sun instantly filled with dark clouds, and the entire world became gloomy.
"It's all the aura of the Chosen One." Long Chen's face darkened; that unpleasant aura was the aura of those destined beings.
Although Guo Ran and the others sensed the changes in the Heavenly Dao, they were not as sensitive as Long Chen. Hearing Long Chen's words, they were startled.
"Clan Leader, Dean Long Chen."
Seeing Long Chen and the others come out, the Earth Spirit Clan experts hurriedly saluted.
"We have come under the orders of Dean Bai Letian of Lingxiao Academy to invite Dean Long Chen."
Long Chen nodded. Actually, without them saying anything, Long Chen already understood why Bai Letian had called him back.
"Brother Long Chen, I'll go with you too." Ye Xue said.
These days, Ye Xue was especially happy spending time with the Dragonblood Warriors. She often used her holy light power to help them cultivate.
"You have an even more important mission. There are many outstanding geniuses in the Earth Spirit Clan. You must help them awaken their destiny. Only by strengthening the Earth Spirit Clan can we better protect our people. You all focus on developing and growing stronger. We will handle the academy matters well." Long Chen said.
During this time, Ye Xue had been helping the Dragonblood warriors, even delaying her own people's cultivation. How could Long Chen keep occupying their homes?
Hearing Long Chen say this, Ye Xue finally agreed. Long Chen bid farewell to Clan Chief Ye Ling, boarded the flying boat, and sped straight toward Lingxiao Academy.
Now, the Xuanling Realm has been unified by the Earth Spirit Clan. The Sacred Tree has not only regained its strength but has also become even stronger thanks to Long Chen's divine soil. Its power can radiate throughout the entire Xuanling Realm, enough to protect the safety of the Earth Spirit Clan.
The Dragonblood Legion's return this time was a triumphant return. Everyone's strength had greatly improved, and with the help of the Sacred Tree of the Xuanling Realm and Ye Xue, their foundation was solidified and their foundation extremely solid.
Moreover, in the Xuanling Realm, everyone's moods relaxed. It could be said that after all these years, it was a rare vacation, and everyone's mental state reached an unprecedented peak.
Apart from not being able to directly break through beyond the Divine Venerable's borders, there were no more forbidden items for them. The Dragonblood Warriors were all fully recovered and energized, like howling wild wolves.
"Boom!"
The flying boat continued to speed, and suddenly there was a loud explosion. A massive object swept across the sky, piercing through the sky and nearly colliding with Xia Chen's flying boat. The terrifying fierce wind sent the flying boat swirling in a wave.
"What is that?"
Bai Shishi and the others exclaimed. They only saw a single silver wing streaking through the void, but couldn't see its full form.
"Xiao Jiu said it's the Golden-Eyed Silver-Winged Sky-Splitting Falcon, also a ferocious beast from the primordial era, one of the overlords of the same era as Xiao Jiu's family." Bai Xiaole said.
Everyone was shocked. The overlord of the same era as the Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Fox was truly an extraordinary existence.
"Huh, why hasn't Xiao Jiu said anything?" Bai Shishi couldn't help but ask.
In the past, the Zitong Nine-Tailed Demon Fox was very talkative. Although not exactly a chatterbox, when there were many people, it would often jump in to say a few words.
However, recently, this creature had become much quieter. It recognized the Golden-Eyed Silver-Winged Sky-Splitting Falcon, but let Bai Xiaole speak up.
Bai Xiaole said, "Xiao Jiu can't speak right now. He's awakening the Destiny Talisman. If he speaks, it will distract his mind and affect the talisman's condensation." Everyone
nodded. As expected of the Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox clan, with no one helping them, they could awaken their destiny entirely on their own.
Most importantly, before awakening the Mandate of Heaven, its combat power was already close to that of a Destiny Holder. If it awakened, its strength would be even more terrifying.
Bai Xiaole had such a terrifying contracted divine beast. In fact, many people envied him. Bai Xiaole used to be notorious for being weak, but ever since signing a contract with the Purple-Eyed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, he seemed to have cheat codes—almost monstrous in strength.
"The Golden-Eyed Silver-Winged Sky-Splitting Falcon is really arrogant. If it crashes into my flying boat, I guarantee it will be my mount from now on." Xia Chen slowly adjusted the flying boat and continued speeding forward, clearly annoyed.
The Golden-Eyed Silver-Winged Sky-Splitting Falcon flew at incredible speed. It should have been able to see the flying boat and knew that its flight would affect it, and might even hit it. But it didn't care at all and just flew over.
It was only slightly swept by the fierce wind; the flying boat was not damaged. Although it was annoying, it couldn't be used to cause trouble for it, since the Dragonblood Legion was not someone who would take revenge.
The Golden-Eyed Silver-Winged Sky-Splitting Falcon was incredibly fast. If Long Chen had chased it back then, he could have caught up. But now, if he did, he wouldn't have known where it had gone. The matter had to be dropped, but everyone felt a bit displeased.
"That Golden-Eyed Silver-Winged Sky-Splitting Falcon aura isn't much weaker than the Nether Dragon Amaterasu itself. This is a tough opponent." Long Chen looked in the direction the Golden-Eyed Silver-Winged Sky-Splitting Falcon had left.
Everyone was shocked. Because it had been so fast just now, they hadn't even seen the Golden-Eyed Silver-Winged Sky-Splitting Falcon's figure clearly, so they had no chance to sense its aura. Yet they hadn't expected it to be on the same level as the Nether Dragon Amitatsu.
"Unfortunately, he left too fast, otherwise I would have learned the ultimate skill of the Golden-Eyed Silver-Winged Sky-Splitting Falcon clan." Guo Ran anxiously slapped his thigh.
At this moment, Guo Ran's cultivation was only at the seventh level of the Realm King. He and Xia Chen were the lowest-level cultivators in the Dragon Blood Legion, because they had been secretly researching things, which delayed their cultivation.
However, delaying cultivation did not mean delaying the expansion of his power. Guo Ran's armor was upgraded again, and some Saint-level divine materials were added.
Xia Chen even inscribed new talismans, many of which came from the corpses of saints, and the materials were engraved with sacred blood. Even Long Chen couldn't gauge their current strength.
Missing out on a Destiny Holder of one level from the Nether Dragon Amatsurasu made the entire Dragonblood Legion extremely regretful. They really wanted to find a strong fighter to use as a reference to see how much they had improved.
The flying boat traveled all the way, and when they entered the territory of Lingxiao Academy, the soldiers of the Dragon Blood Legion suddenly stood up:
"This time, we finally won't miss out."
