Chapter 1597: 407: The Weight of Upper Narrative_2

[Demon Abyss Rift, Mist Demons Breed.]Amidst the glorious advances of the Cultivation Civilization, the narrative on the pages suddenly shifts.

The majestic Ink Power energy that pervaded the world sank into the depths of the earth’s framework.

Abysses that seemed bottomless suddenly tore open, spewing out pitch-black misty miasma.

These are what Shuyan set as a preview adversary based on the understanding of the Mingwu Clan during the world’s construction. They can also be regarded as conceptual creations.

In this miasma, countless figures resembling Mingwu Warriors appeared.

They greedily devoured Spiritual Energy, polluted the Spirit Veins, and wherever they passed, the vegetation withered.

[Catastrophe Descends, Good and Evil in Fierce Battle.]

The glorious era of the Cultivation world has ushered in its own "calamity."

Cultivators were forced to set aside disputes and unite against the misty ink.

Sword light clashed with demon claws, talismans interwove with death words, Fiery Flames rose beside the Alchemy Furnace to expel evil, and the Mountain Protection Array flickered under the assault of the Mingwu surge.

The prodigies of the era quickly adapted to the fighting style of these mist demons in life-and-death combat.

Their Taoist Skills were honed in actual combat, constantly creating Divine Power and Techniques targeting the traits of the mist demons.

This "thousands of years"-long epic battle between good and evil was a pre-war rehearsal planted by Shuyan in the narrative.

It can also be seen as a stress test before the War Corps officially goes online.

It allowed this newly formed Cultivation Army to familiarize themselves with the fighting style of future opponents in the long story time even before officially joining the battle.

When the Chapters of the story progressed to the decisive moment.

Shuyan’s will descended.

All the heroes, ancestors, holy sons, holy maidens who proved their worth in the demon war, stepped out from the epic Chapters of the pages, from phantom to reality.

Their eyes still held the cold War Intent from fighting the mist demons.

A Cultivation Army, forged through the internal "mist calamity," entirely born to counter the Mingwu, was now fully formed.

The pages closed.

The Cultivation Army’s gaze collectively turned towards the Mingwu Surge surging in from beyond the Domain.

The rehearsal ended.

The real war officially began.

The grand army, comprised of countless cultivators, with the awe-inspiring Taoist power tempered over countless years, resolutely faced the overwhelming Mingwu Army.

In their knowledge and memory written by Shuyan, this pitch-black sea of mist that devours light is the mist demons they had fought against for long years.

"Form the array, protect the common people, and battle with me!"

An "Immortal Ancestor" with childlike features and white hair, holding a horsetail whisk, shouted angrily and mournfully.

Immediately, the gigantic Eight Diagram, All Heaven Star Formation, Ten Thousand Swords Demon Slaying Formation... arrays proven effective in demon wars instantly lit up.

The brilliant Immortal Light connected into a solid bastion, fiercely colliding with the surging Mingwu Surge.

Bang!

Heavenly Dao Skills and Mingwu Energy clashed fiercely, erupting into thunderous roars.

Immortal Light continuously dissolved the mist, while the giant claws formed in the misty sea ferociously tore at the formation’s light screen, stirring intense ripples.

The battle instantly turned white-hot, and the "Era Protagonists" with Rule Spirit Roots took action.

Sword Immortals controlled their swords, with boundless sword light slashing through the Fog Beasts.

Talisman Masters scattered Spirit Talismans, summoning heavenly thunder and Earth Fire to purify the filth.

Alchemy Cultivators raised their Treasure Furnaces, the Fiery Flames scorching the invading Mingwu Evil Qi... every Magic targets the traits of the "mist demons."

This war, they had fought for thousands of years.

But the real Mingwu Army was far more powerful than the "mist demons" pre-set in the narrative.

Faced with increasingly fierce offensives, Shuyan decisively altered the narrative, causing the Domain to retreat, extending the Mingwu Clan’s advancing front.

The main force of the Mingwu Clan decisively followed, leaving split-off warriors responsible for the aftermath.

Before long, the two fiercely clashing armies vanished from this sea domain.

At this moment, above the sea domain occupied by the Ascension Clan.

The once Immortal Light bathed, island-strewn magnificent Ascension Civilization was no more, replaced by a sea surface floating with endless debris.

The shattered Immortal Palace pavilions, crumbling mountain bases, fragments of the Ascension Clan’s fallen spiritual bodies... like garbage fragments, they floated in the dim seawater and energy dust.

The departure of the Mingwu Army and Shuyan brought a halt to the roar in this region, replaced by the low hum of "giant beasts" swallowing.

The Mingwu Clan warriors responsible for the aftermath swiftly shuttled through the vast sea graveyard.

Chains from mist boats continuously reached out, wrapping and retrieving all valuable architectural debris.

These were all recoverable and reusable Spiritual Resources.

During this time, the misty clouds resembling transporting Mingwu Giant Beasts continuously devoured the spoils brought up.

Resources within the conversion workshops underwent preliminary sorting and refining, smelting architectural debris into basic spiritual material, and purifying spiritual body fragments into pure energy crystals for storage, while worthless residue was regurgitated back into the sea.

The victors began to enjoy this feasting banquet.

Decomposing, absorbing, and converting everything from the defeated into nutrients for their clan’s continued advancement.

This was also the reason the Mingwu Clan left part of the war force behind.

The sea resources must be harvested quickly; otherwise, they would sink to the seabed or be consumed by Sea Beasts or other creatures.

This was undoubtedly a loss for the Mingwu Clan.

While the Mingwu Clan busied themselves with "dining," countless curious figures, like hyenas smelling blood, emerged from all directions of the Ascension Sea, growing in number.

Not participating in the fight, but when it came to eating, players were evidently the most enthusiastic.
