The beast tide strikes again.

The atmosphere within Vast Sea Immortal City plunged into immense tension.

Batch after batch of city cultivators, fearless in the face of death, stepped up again.

Loose cultivators in Vast Sea Immortal City were all on edge.

When the city's guard cultivators suffered heavy casualties, it would be their turn to step up.

Under a fallen nest, not one egg remains intact.

They understood this well.

An unspoken fear permeated everyone's hearts.

Qin Ming met with Guu Qingzhao of Mirror Snow Pavilion; she and Huangfu Qii were also preparing to use the Immortal City's teleportation array to lead their people away.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, come with us!"

Qin Ming didn't pretend; since there was a way out, he prepared to leave the Immortal City.

Rumble!

Once again, loud explosions erupted as demon kings assaulted the grand array outside the Immortal City.

Standing at the window, Qin Ming glanced outside. What he saw made his heart leap!

Terrifying demon king auras appeared outside, including the three-headed demon king from several days ago, accompanied by a horned deer race demon beast.

This horned deer, although just two meters tall like a regular demon beast, emitted a terrifying aura that caused Qin Ming's pupils to contract!

"Tier Three Mid-Stage Demon King!"

This demon king belonged to the same clan as the previous peak early-stage Tier Three deer-shaped demon king, but its cultivation was significantly higher.

Four Golden Core Ancestors from Vast Sea Immortal City came out, their expressions unprecedentedly grave as they looked at the beast tide.

...

Moving swiftly, Qin Ming caught up with Guu Qingzhao's group.

'This is outrageous.'

'Have to run; can't stay here!'

With everything packed, Guu Qingzhao's people hurried toward the core area's teleportation array.

On the way, Qin Ming saw Elder Xu and Xu Jing of Pill Furnace Pavilion and members from Thunder Origin Sect, along with prominent figures from other core area factions, all withdrawing.

The teleportation array was set up beneath Vast Sea Peak in a large hall near the core area, heavily guarded and reserved for major factions.

Time was pressing.

After filling it with spirit stones, they activated the array.

Figures vanished one by one in the teleportation array.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, this is your Teleportation Order."

"The teleportation array transports cultivators safely to designated anchors, reaching distances of tens of thousands of miles."

"Guard your Teleportation Order carefully to avoid being devoured by spatial turbulence."

"Do you have a destination in mind, Fellow Daoist Qin?"

Qin Ming was surprised at the array's prowess, allowing him to designate his destination freely.

"Then teleport me toward Wangyue Lake at Spirit Nest Islands."

Qin Ming answered promptly.

"Alright, Fellow Daoist Qin, see you next time."

"Fellow Daoist Qin, don't forget about me, visit Profound Creek Valley."

"Friend Qin, until we meet again!"

The crowd bade him farewell.

As everyone's gaze followed him, Qin Ming held the Teleportation Order and stepped into the array's center.

The cultivators controlling the array filled its eight corners with spirit stones.

Activating the teleportation wasn't cheap; it cost Qin Ming over five hundred middle-grade spirit stones.

Yet, these external possessions meant nothing compared to his life.

After filling the array with spirit stones, the city's guard made a gesture towards a floating map above the array's center, initiating a Spirit Guide.

The area representing Spirit Nest Islands lit up, setting the destination near Celestial River Market.

Buzz～

As the array began operating, a light descended to envelop Qin Ming.

Yet at that moment...

The Heaven-Devouring Rat Demon King outside the city seemed to sense someone attempting to escape via the teleportation array.

Its eyes glinted mockingly as it spoke malevolently, "Heh! Trying to escape using a teleportation array? Not a chance!"

Unleashing demonic power, it manifested a layer of black light filled with runes.

Spraying demon blood, it embedded it in the runes.

Boom!

A massive black light screen arose, encasing the Immortal City.

The black light attacked Vast Sea Peak's earth vein!

"Witness my bloodline talent divine technique 'Forbidden Profound Light,' humans!"

"Heh-heh!"

...

Within the core area teleportation array.

Just as Qin Ming was about to be teleported.

Boom! Crack!

A violent tremor suddenly erupted from underground.

Black light surged from the array, disrupting the teleportation.

The map's target point switched from Celestial River Market to another location.

Buzz!

As the black light began destroying the array, golden radiance enveloped Qin Ming.

In an instant, he vanished from the scene, teleported away.

Seeing the new coordinates, Guu Qingzhao and Elder Xu exclaimed, "It's the depths of Beast Roar Mountain Range!"

"It's a disaster, Fellow Daoist Qin!"

Under the black light's influence, the teleportation array's eight cores shattered...

The people trapped inside remained stuck.

...

Elsewhere.

Qin Ming felt dizzy, emerging in a dark cave after what felt like half a tea brew.

Regaining clarity he saw, his mind reeled, cursing aloud:

"@&#%*￥!!!"

A massive Earth-Shaking Bear Demon lay before him, exuding a Tier Two Perfection aura!

The bear demon looked equally bewildered, having dozed off before a human unexpectedly appeared beside it.

Inside the dim cave, man and beast stared at each other awkwardly.

"Uh... Ha-ha... I took a wrong turn, pardon my intrusion!"

"How about... you continue your nap?"

The bear demon registered Qin Ming's presence, coppery eyes flaring with immense anger!

A human dared trespass their territory, sneaking into its lair.

Roar!

The Tier Two Perfection Earth-Shaking Bear Demon roared furiously, shaking the cave violently.

Rumble!

Bears outside were shocked, baffled by their young master's sudden anger.

The enormous Earth-Shaking Giant Bear rose, swinging a huge paw imbued with silver thunderous power toward Qin Ming!

The bear recognized Qin Ming's early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, viewing him as a triviality.

Qin Ming wryly smiled, thinking he should next time check the almanac before travel.

Boom!

Before the bear's paw landed, Qin Ming's True Qi Blood Spirit erupted!

True Gang Transformation, Demon Ape Transformation!

A red phantom of a four-armed demon ape appeared behind him!

Awe befitting a Tier Two Perfection Great Demon descended!

Crack!

The ape's fierce eyes glowed as one bloody arm punched at the Earth-Shaking Giant Bear!
