Chapter 770.2 – [ Drastic Changes, Nothing Remains Forever ]

Both were almost identical.
They just differed in scale.
When the forbidden Radiant Light Seal Dungeon was created six thousand years ago, a great sage had warned about the possibility of the Dark Realm interacting with it. Regretfully, the higher-ranking powers didn’t listen to the sage back then. Over the years, those higher-ranking powers seemed to have completely forgotten about this possibility.
Consul Xiang Wen panicked. This was not a situation that he could solve using his intelligence and abilities.
What should we do?
Should we escape?
Should we prepare to fight?
If they fled, millions of residents of Rizhao City would become victims of their enemy’s rampage; if they were brave enough to stand and fight, based on their current strength, it would be akin to serving themselves up on a platter! Even if an alarm was sounded immediately, and help was requested from the higher-ups, it would come too late, too slowly… City Lord Tu Hai and Lord Ling Yun had an urgent, whispered discussion. After they finished, they hurried over and bowed to Yue Yang. Then, Tu Hai said, “Third Young Master, if you want to leave this place, I will not blame you, I just hope that you can take the consort, Grey Sparrow Beauty, with you.”
Yue Yang faintly shook his head, “I can take care of Grey Sparrow Beauty for the time being but I won’t leave Rizhao City until the very last moment. Right now, there is no place that is safe.”
“Excellent. Third Young Master, please come with us into the secret passage. We intend to rely on the Radiant Light Secret Passage to thwart the enemy while we wait for reinforcements. The Radiant Light Secret Passage is permeated with strong sealing power. Those depraved and fallen warriors, should not be able to break through it.” Tu Hai was overjoyed when he heard that Third Young Master would not forsake them. Luckily, Third Young Master hadn’t chosen to leave immediately. Otherwise, even with the Radiant Light Secret Passage, they might not necessarily be able to defend themselves against the invasion of the fallen warriors from the Dark Realm.
“Boom!“
The roar of battle resounded from a distant area of the sky.
Sun-like rays shone throughout the sky forcing the people on the ground to squeeze their eyes shut.
Grey Sparrow Beauty cried out in sorrow.
Immediately afterward, Tu Hai and Lord Ling Yun saw that there were eight fallen warriors, who all possessed Heaven Rank, Level 5 strength, attacking Prince Wu Hai in turn. Each and every one of the eight was riding on the back of a vicious dragon… By now, everyone realized that the Dark Realm had not just suddenly opened today. Instead, it had started to crack open some time ago, only the original rift was not very large, so only two people had managed to escape.
They were the ones that had driven the flying dragon herd away from the area around Rizhao City using their vicious dragon mounts but not with the intention of slaughtering them.
Rather, it was to draw the local people’s attention away from the crack.
In this way, they would have enough time to open the space-time rift. From the look of it, the plans of these fallen warriors had succeeded. Without outside interference, the space-time rift to the Dark Realm had successfully been opened.
Depraved and fallen warriors who had been sealed for tens of thousands of years had returned to Heaven Realm once again. Without a doubt, a chaotic battle, that would shock all of Heaven Realm, was about to take place. If this group of fallen Dark Realm warriors, that had successfully escaped, guarded the space-time rift, then there would be a steady stream of expert warriors from the Dark Realm who would break through the ancient [Dark Realm Seal] through sacrifices, pass through the space-time rift, and enter Heaven Realm.
“How spectacular!” After seeing that there were at least ten thousand Dark Realm warriors who had teleported out from the cracks in the sky, Fatty Hai sighed indifferently.
In fact, the probability of forcing such a breakthrough of the [Dark Realm Seal], then successfully crossing the space-time rift was very low.
Some of the fallen warriors only managed to teleport halfway through.
And were swallowed up by the space vortex.
Some warriors teleported out only to become a corpse, some warriors were only left with their head, and, of course, there were some lucky warriors who succeeded. Nearly ten thousand fallen warriors, regardless of injuries, as long as they were still alive, gathered behind the ten expert warriors. The vast majority of them were at Quasi-Heaven strength. Not more than a hundred of them had reached the level of Heaven Rank strength.
“This is just the first batch.” Yue Yang knew that to break through this kind of seal, it would be even more difficult than trying to teleport to the Soaring Dragon Continent from the Demon Abyss inside Tong Tian Tower. However, the Dark Realm had been slowly accumulating its strength for more than tens of thousands of years. There would definitely be more than just this little bit of Heaven Rankers in there.
Much stronger, more terrifying fallen Heaven Rankers had yet to make their appearance.
City Lord Tu Hai rushed into the castle and activated the City Lord’s [Sun Crystal] sealing stone.
Immediately, all around the entirety of Sun Island, countless rays of dazzling light shot out, releasing a special kind of sealing power. This kind of sealing power was ineffective against ordinary people but for those fallen warriors, who still had some residual sealing power in their bodies, or the warriors from Tong Tian Tower, who had been imprisoned and recorded, it was a strong sealing power that even the strongest Heaven Ranker could barely resist.
Prince Wu Hai was unable to defeat the opponent’s eight-man team and fled back in disarray. Fortunately, he was a prince of the Eastern Demon Tribe’s Golden Crow Tribe. Due to this, the opponent was reluctant to kill him, just yet. Otherwise, he might not have been able to successfully return.
“Why are you here?” Prince Wu Hai was momentarily surprised to see that Grey Sparrow Beauty was crying.
“Quickly retreat into the Radiant Light Secret Passage before it’s too late!” City Lord Tu Hai had no time to waste. He could not allow the newly reunited couple the time needed to share their stories. Instead, he rushed to get them to leave together.
“Is there a secret door to the Dark Realm here?” Yue Yang acted incensed, even though he already knew the answer. Then, he grabbed City Lord Tu Hai by his collar, and angrily yelled, “Do you want us all to die? Those people are communicating with their comrades on the other side of the Dark Realm Secret Gate. They will kill their way out of it and the entirety of Sun Island will collapse!”
“They won’t. The people imprisoned inside are not the same as those depraved and fallen warriors. They won’t join forces with the fallen warriors of the Dark Realm. Besides, even if the entirety of Sun Island collapses the Radiant Light Secret Passage will still exist unscathed. Let’s go! It’s impossible for us to rival the forces of the Dark Realm. Being able to protect ourselves inside the Radiant Light Secret Passage is the best we can do for now. As for whether or not they can communicate with the rest of their forces inside the Dark Realm, there is nothing we can do to stop it. We’re not gods. That is not something our strength alone can stop!” When City Lord Tu Hai took a look at the hundred Heaven Rankers who were arranging themselves into a giant formation and charging up their strength in preparation to attack, he knew that the destruction of Rizhao City could not be avoided.
“As I don’t have a better choice, this will have to do.” Yue Yang was secretly happy. He had intended to free the sealed warriors of Tong Tian Tower himself. He just had not found the right opportunity.
Currently, it seemed like there was no need for him to take any action on his own. The Dark Realm’s fallen Heaven Rankers would open the seal for him.
As of right now, everything had been prepared. All that was missing was the final push.
The only thing missing from this plan was to bring Old Dragon Turtle to Heaven Realm and let him identify all of his old comrades. Otherwise, Yue Yang wouldn’t recognize who was who when they were rescued!
