946: Chapter 257_4 946: Chapter 257_4 Despite being cultivators, and moreover at the Golden Core Stage, it wasn’t long after spotting Cao Zhen that they flew to his location.
Among them, the one taking the lead, who had eight Golden Cores behind him, five of which were extraordinary, approached Cao Zhen with a clasped fist and said, “I am Sect Leader Pan Linhai of the Linhai Sect.
I have met Sect Leader Cao.
May I ask if there’s anything we can do to help?”
Unlike ordinary people, those from the immortal cultivation world preferred to address Cao Zhen as Sect Leader after seeing him.
After all, Cao Zhen was still the Sect Leader of the Hundred Peaks Sect.
Cao Zhen hadn’t known of the Linhai Sect before, but during his time staying in Cao Village, he had heard of their name.
He turned to look at them, nodded slightly, and said, “Then please assist us by stabilizing this embankment.
The rest will follow me; we must go to other shorelines.”
Given the vastness of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, and being only one person himself at the Golden Core Stage, it was impossible for him to fortify all the coastlines immediately.
He had only reinforced this region’s shoreline; he still needed to go elsewhere to bolster more coastlines.
Upon hearing this, Pan Linhai immediately instructed one of his followers, “You stay back, guard the embankment.
The rest of us will follow Sect Leader Cao to another location.”
Cao Zhen had already made the embankment extremely stable, and there was no need for further reinforcement; leaving just one Golden Core Stage cultivator was enough to maintain this stretch of the embankment.
With time being of the essence, Cao Zhen couldn’t afford to linger and talk more; he quickly flew off into the distance.
For these fifty years, he had been living as a mortal.
Fifty years ago, he helped mortals because he was new to this world and his time spent cultivating here was limited; he mostly retained the mindset of an Earthling from his original planet.
However, in these fifty years, he had always acted as a mortal, as a human of this world.
He considered himself a mortal and understood the hardships of mortals even better.
Cao Zhen sped along the coast at the fastest speed possible, all the while projecting his voice, letting it carry far and wide.
“I am the State Preceptor of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, Cao Zhen of the Hundred Peaks Sect.
The tsunami is coming; all Immortal Sect immortals, come to the shoreline to build embankments to halt the tidal waves.”
His power alone was ultimately limited; he needed more people to come and assist.
At the same time, he connected with Ling Xi through the China Cloud.
Inside the Hundred Peaks Sect, every member had noticed the unusual phenomena in the heavens and earth.
All at once, various high-ranking individuals and Peak Masters of the Hundred Peaks quickly gathered.
“This heavenly phenomenon means the fifty years have passed; our Eastern Wasteland will now connect with the Central Five Provinces.”
Everyone immediately assessed the situation, and their expressions became grave in an instant.
Duo Duo had previously shared some information with Cao Zhen, but, given her young age, the information she knew was limited.
On the other hand, Xiang Ziyu had long been with the Ax Crazy, and the two had been fighting almost every day.
After each fight, they would continue their cultivation and then start fighting again.
Over three years, they had fought day after day, spent three years together.
During that period, Xiang Ziyu heard a lot about the Central Five Provinces from the Ax Crazy.
In the Central Five Provinces, those significant Immortal Sects indeed didn’t pay much attention to places they considered desolate, like the Eastern Wasteland, Eastern Barbarians, or the East Region.
The main reason was their disdain for such zones; in their eyes, what treasures could such desolate lands possess?
Another reason was that these prestigious sects also cared about their reputation.
Under normal circumstances, even the Demon Cultivation Sects of the Central Five Continents would not focus on a place like the Eastern Wasteland that connected with the Central Five Provinces.
The reason was the same: disdain.
However, the Reversal Mini Epoch Period was different.
After the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth arrived, relics could appear anywhere, and no one knew whether significant relics might emerge in the Eastern Wasteland.
Therefore, if those Demon Cultivation Sects found out that the Eastern Wasteland was connecting with their Central Five Provinces after the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth ended, they would indeed take action.
Thus, when people from the Hundred Peaks Sect realized that their sect and the whole world were beginning to move, they grew worried, uncertain of what formidable foes they might face.
Yet, while many were worried, they were also filled with anticipation.
After all, the Eastern Wasteland was not the center of the immortal cultivation world.
Now that they could make contact with the heart of the Immortal Realm, how could they not be hopeful and expectant?
In fact, there wasn’t a trace of worry in Xiang Ziyu’s eyes, only excitement shone.
“Everyone doesn’t need to worry; our Eastern Wasteland connecting with the Central Five Provinces is nothing out of the ordinary.
Don’t forget that I am the protagonist.
All protagonists start their journey from some remote little town.
Then, step by step, the protagonist emerges and eventually becomes the best in the world.
Right now, I am walking the true path of the protagonist.
You also don’t have to be too frightened.
During the Reversal Mini Epoch Period, the highest power level in the Central Five Provinces is the Golden Core Stage.”
As Xiang Ziyu spoke, Little Beiyan’s voice suddenly rose.
“Brother, let me correct you; during the Reversal Mini Epoch Period, the strongest combat power is the Wind Fire Tribulation!”
After fifty years, Little Beiyan had finally grown tall, no longer the half-grown child she once was.
