Chapter 141: Chapter 141: An Immortal
Li Yang turned and swiftly flew off into the distance. The people left on the boat all watched, some with a glimmer of excitement in their eyes alongside their fear.
"Whoa, that guy can fly! Is he some kind of god?"
"He must be one of those cultivators you read about in novels."
"I can’t believe I just saw a god!"
"AHHH! I want to become a Cultivator too!"
These people were incredibly excited. Watching Li Yang kill the giant sea serpent—over twenty meters long—right in front of them was as shocking as a scene from a cultivation drama.
Beside Qin Yue, Chu Tingting’s mouth hung open in an "O," wide enough to fit a whole egg.
After a long moment, she said in shock, "Yueyue, that Li Yang guy can fly! Is he Superman?"
"I... I don’t know." Hearing Chu Tingting’s words, Qin Yue shook her head.
Her mind was a complete mess. First, she’d encountered a giant sea serpent over twenty meters long, and then she’d seen Li Yang fly through the air and kill it with lightning.
The scene was just too overwhelming for her.
It felt like she was in a dream.
After all, such surreal things were supposed to happen only in one’s imagination.
After being stunned for a long moment, Qin Yue suddenly pulled out her phone and called her father.
"Hello, Xiaoyue."
"Dad, I just saw Li Yang fly. Do you know what’s going on...?"
Qin Yue said hurriedly the moment the call connected.
"Li Yang can fly?"
Hearing Qin Yue’s words, Qin Shanchuan was stunned. After a long pause, he said, "Xiaoyue, I don’t know much, but I do know that Li Yang is a Cultivator..."
...
While the Qin father and daughter were talking, Li Yang was helping the people on the ship evacuate safely.
Meanwhile, Shen Xuan arrived at a place where he found a bizarre-looking lifeform.
This being’s skin was completely blue. It had strange antennae on its head and a tail. A faint black, mystical pattern was etched on its face, and its eyes were purple... It was Jin Mola.
"Jin Mola, what are you doing?" Shen Xuan asked the being, his voice grave.
Jin Mola’s expression was indifferent. "Shen Xuan, can’t you see what I’m doing? Soon, over a thousand mutated creatures of the Spirit Awakening Realm will appear in the oceans. You and your Earth had best prepare for the feast."
Hearing this, Shen Xuan’s expression changed drastically.
There were fewer than two hundred King Level Cultivators on Earth in total. Facing over a thousand King Level mutated creatures... frёewebηovel.cѳm
If even one of them slipped through and reached the shore, it would cause catastrophic destruction in a short amount of time, just like Godzilla in the movies!
His expression hardening, Shen Xuan said in a low voice, "Aren’t you afraid that I’ll contact other civilizations if you do this?"
This was the one thing Jin Mola had always been wary of.
Because if he did, even if Earth were to be taken over and humanity’s quality of life plummeted, Jin Mola would lose access to the resources of the surrounding planets.
Jin Mola couldn’t care less what happened to humanity, but losing the resources was something he would never accept.
"Haha! Shen Xuan, I despise being threatened."
Jin Mola sneered. "I, Jin Mola, am no longer afraid of your threats."
With that, he said no more and turned to leave.
Shen Xuan was left behind, his expression dark and uncertain.
’It seems Jin Mola is no longer worried about me exposing Earth’s location.’
’But now Earth is in this state... Over a thousand King Level behemoths. In a few months, Earth might suffer catastrophic destruction, and the casualties would be immeasurable.’
’If another power took over Earth, no matter how grim our fate, at least we wouldn’t be facing mass extinction.’
For a moment, Shen Xuan didn’t know what choice to make.
’Should I let the casualties on Earth continue to mount?’
’Or should I let aliens take over Earth, allowing them to legally sell humans as slaves?’
...
’Over a thousand King Level creatures...’
Li Yang’s expression was grim. He was just about to tell Shen Xuan about this, but his phone suddenly rang.
A glance showed it was an invitation from Shen Xuan for a video call.
After he accepted, he saw that he wasn’t alone. There were over a hundred other people from various countries—every single one of them was a King Level Cultivator from Earth!
"Everyone!"
Once everyone had joined, Shen Xuan’s voice reached their ears. "There has been a massive upheaval in the oceans. The marine life is mutating rapidly. We expect that in a very short time, over a thousand King Level mutated creatures will appear!"
"What? Over a thousand King Level creatures?"
"How is that possible?"
"There are so few of us! We can’t possibly fight that many King Level entities!" freewёbnoνel.com
"A King Level’s destructive power is immense! A single slip-up, and an entire city could be destroyed in an instant!"
Nearly everyone’s expression changed drastically upon hearing Shen Xuan’s words.
"Therefore, from this moment on, every King Level practitioner will disperse across the oceans to prevent these mutated creatures from reaching the shore."
Shen Xuan’s voice was grave. "Furthermore, we must release this information to the public: aliens are invading Earth, and the oceans are mutating."
Many of the King Level Cultivators looked confused at Shen Xuan’s announcement.
"What alien invasion?"
Only those who had reached the mid-stage of the King Level were qualified to know about aliens.
As a result, many King Level practitioners present had no idea what was going on.
Shen Xuan quickly explained the situation over the video call. As they learned the truth, the assembled King Level practitioners were even more shocked.
"There are other civilizations besides our own?"
"Palace Master Shen Xuan can contact these other civilizations directly, but because Earth has no geniuses, exposing our existence would lead to aliens taking over and even legally selling off humanity?"
All the King Level practitioners were stunned. The information they learned today completely upended their worldview.
They never imagined there was so much going on that they were unaware of.
Shen Xuan’s gaze was as sharp as a hawk’s as it swept across the faces in the call. "The current changes in the ocean are all the work of that alien, Jin Mola," he said gravely.
"The situation in the oceans has changed. Therefore, we must now release this information to the public. That includes revealing our existence as Cultivators to the people of Earth."
The oceans are no longer safe for anyone, and people living near the coast must be evacuated inland. This is the only way to minimize casualties.
But to make that happen, we have to tell them the truth.
Otherwise, many people won’t take it seriously.
After all, not many people would willingly abandon their homes.
"Understood. I’ll contact our country’s leadership immediately."
"This is the greatest crisis in human history!"
Hearing Shen Xuan’s proposal, the King Level practitioners from every nation nodded, their faces grim with determination.
With the upheaval in the oceans, the alien invasion could no longer be kept secret. And they, the Cultivators who had lived in the shadows, would have to reveal themselves to the world!
Only then would the entire world cooperate with their orders.
