Chapter 331 - 330: Blood Mist Invasion, Impending Crisis
"Emperor Venerable Realm?!"
In the meeting room, Qin Yang was stunned as he heard the system’s voice.
’Isn’t that the Realm the system showed for Li Zixuan five hundred years in the future?!’
’Why is the system only notifying me now?’
’And what’s this about the Emperor Venerable Realm?!’
’So, it seems that above the Divine Venerable Realm is the Emperor Venerable Realm...’
Qin Yang’s thoughts raced. He frowned as he looked at the red mist on the projection screen, immediately sensing that something was wrong.
After all, Nangong Li only reaches the Divine Venerable Realm five hundred years from now.
But the system was now indicating that within the red mist was a being who would also achieve the Emperor Venerable Realm in five hundred years...
Its strength was even greater than Nangong Li’s!
’Who could that be, other than the Beast God?’
"Young Master?"
Liu Wushuang, sitting upright beside him, couldn’t help but ask when he saw Qin Yang’s grim expression, "Have you thought of something?"
The moment he spoke, the meeting room fell silent, and all eyes immediately turned to him.
They all focused on Qin Yang, waiting for his answer, as if an invisible weight had settled over them.
Now that Qin Yang was at the Celestial Venerable Realm, he was everyone’s pillar of support. His every word and action affected everyone present.
"Everyone, I’m afraid a great battle is upon us."
Qin Yang’s brow furrowed slightly. He kept his voice low as his gaze swept over Elder Li and the others’ faces, and said slowly, "When this red mist passes, we must prepare for the worst.
Although we say ’as long as the city stands, we stand,’ if it truly comes to that, we should evacuate those we can. Prioritize the relocation of the weak. People come first!"
As his words fell, everyone present fell silent once more.
"Could it be because of the Da Li Mountain Range?"
At that moment, Elder Li asked in a trembling voice, "Is something coming out of that red mist?!"
"Yes."
Qin Yang pondered for a moment, then turned to Liu Wushuang. "If I’m not mistaken, this red mist signifies the awakening of the Beast God..."
He paused, his expression turning grim. "And judging by the speed it’s spreading, it is already on its way. It might reach us in Jianghai in less than half a day."
"What?!"
Hearing this, a chill ran down everyone’s spines, and they felt a wave of horror.
That’s too fast!
The Beast God’s tracks were only discovered in the early hours of last night. Only twelve hours have passed since the outbreak.
No matter how quickly Jianghai City mobilizes, there’s not enough time to set up a defense!
Once the Beast God leads the red mist across the border, the consequences will be utterly devastating!
Far surpassing the previous Beast Tide invasion!
"It really woke up..."
In the corner, Liu Wushuang’s face was filled with horror. He muttered in disbelief, feeling as if the sky was about to fall.
The Beast God was actually still alive.
His worst nightmare for years had come true.
The one thing he never wanted to see had happened...
The Beast God was a powerhouse from the black hole of the Upper Realm!
Five hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Human Race were still able to suppress it.
But now, the Human Race has weakened. The absolute peak of our power is the Celestial Venerable Realm, which is simply not enough to resist such a terrifying entity!
If it lands in the center of Jianghai’s urban district, the entire city will be put to the torch!
Just imagining the scene was enough to make one’s blood run cold.
The meeting room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Everyone looked at each other, and fear spread rapidly through their hearts.
But just then,
"Everyone, do not fall into disarray!"
Qin Yang, sitting in the main seat, suddenly spoke.
His voice was like the chime of a great bell, instantly calming everyone’s panicked and deluded thoughts.
After everyone’s minds had settled, he stared intently at the red mist over the foothills on the screen. "Please rest assured. As long as my Heaven-Blasting Gang is in the city, Jianghai City will always be safe.
The most urgent task now is to mobilize immediately."
"Young Friend Qin is right!"
Elder Li hurriedly nodded in agreement. "With the Beast God approaching, we must stand united."
"Yes, Elder Li speaks the truth."
The Chief Commander nodded gravely and turned to Qin Yang. "Qin Celestial Venerable, if you have any other orders, please just give them. The Star Martial Police Bureau is at your complete disposal!"
"First, prepare to evacuate the public. We must be ready for the worst."
Qin Yang rubbed the tabletop as he slowly explained, "With a Divine Venerable Realm being’s arrival, if a battle truly breaks out, the entirety of Jianghai City will be affected. The citizens cannot withstand the shockwaves. They must all be evacuated to a safe zone."
"Understood." The Commander nodded, took out his phone, and quickly tapped the screen. "I’ll arrange for an announcement to be issued immediately to open the Jianghai air-raid shelters."
As the orders were given one by one, the atmosphere in the meeting room grew grim and solemn.
The entire future of Jianghai City was now being decided in this room.
This would be a moment worthy of being recorded in the annals of history!
"Then I’ll have to trouble you all."
Qin Yang’s expression was serious. "The odds of winning this battle are too slim. I am not enough on my own. I must also ask all of you to mobilize the experts of the Jianghai Innate Realm and above. They will all face the enemy with me..."
"Alright,"
Elder Li nodded, gently stroking his white beard. "That won’t be difficult. Leave the rest to me."
After giving his instructions, everyone accepted their tasks and dispersed to get busy, while Qin Yang took the opportunity to rush home.
It was time to begin the final preparations.

「Fuhai District.」
Online, videos from around the Jianghai Border Line were spreading.
As the red mist passed over, numerous residents living near the border witnessed the scene, and more and more people began filming the strange phenomenon.
Then they shared it with friends and family.
In less than a few minutes, the videos spread through all the major chat groups!
They circulated rapidly on forums!
Amidst the swirling rumors, discussion and hype instantly peaked.
"So this is the Beast God, huh?"
On a path in the district, Xiaobai carried a bag of groceries, scrolling through her phone as she walked, curiously looking at the top trending topics.
On her way back from the vegetable market, she casually swiped and tapped on one of the video titles.
[Live Camping Log]
[Time: 3:00 AM]
[Location: North of the Da Li Mountain Range]
In the video, the sky was clear with a bright moon and few stars. A fierce wind howled through the foothills, making the camping tent rustle violently.
The red mist spread outwards along the crisscrossing ravines, devouring everything in its path. Plants withered, their life force extinguished, and even King Level Star Beasts were reduced to stark white skeletons, as if the entire world was dissolving.
After a few seconds, the footage was abruptly interrupted.
It cut directly to the face of a strange man. His shriveled skin clung tightly to his facial bones, and his throat had been completely corroded away, revealing the bloody hole of his windpipe inside.
He couldn’t make a sound.
He could only make hoarse, gasping noises, as if desperately trying to tell everyone to run for their lives, struggling with all his might to say something.
But before he could manage more than a few noises, the red mist behind him surged forward. The air filled with the horrifying sound of scorching and sizzling,
and he was melted into a white skeleton on the spot. The video cut out completely!
"Ew, how disgusting!"
Xiaobai frowned, scrolled down, and opened the comments section below the video.
The netizens were going wild!
