At the same time, Xianhuan Continent, a ghost town.

The people in the shallow dream were awakened violently. The monks hurriedly opened up the protective shields, while ordinary people ran out of the house one after another, looking around in panic.

Then, they saw a scene they will never forget.

A huge, semi-circular transparent cover suddenly appeared above the town, and the cover showed two kinds of light, one red and one blue.

The well-informed people immediately saw that this was the city’s defensive formation.

"What's going on? Why did the protective array automatically turn on? Is anyone attacking the city?"

"No one! There are no intruders outside the city!"

"By the way, do you think it's a bit hot?"

"It's not a bit, but it's very hot! What's the matter! Why is it so hot! I can't stand the heat the most!"

There were complaints everywhere, all speculating about what was going on.

Suddenly, a child raised his little hand and pointed in a certain direction: "Mother, what is that ball? Why is it red, it looks like flaming sugar syrup!"

The woman whose trousers was pulled by the child looked up, not knowing what she thought of, her eyes gradually became frightened: "That, that shouldn't be some syrup, that's...that's like..."

"Lava! Why is the protective cover covered with lava!"

"Enemy attack! Who is sneaking! Otherwise, the city’s protective array will not be automatically opened! Thanks to this is a high-level city, guarded by the city spirit, if the level is lower, I am afraid that the lava from nowhere will be smashed. Come down! The monk is okay, what should ordinary people do!"

"Run!" A group of people hurriedly rushed out of the city. However, when they rushed to the city gate, they discovered that although the city gate was wide open, the people who stood outside the city gate earlier had not been there. Dare to go out.

Because the doorway has long been blocked by the red and blue protective formation, and outside the formation is raging lava!

The temperature is rising sharply, and the lava smashing into the formation seems to be able to rush in at any time, engulfing the entire city into a terrible heat.

No one dared to walk out of this door at this time.

Because they found that the entire city was shrouded in lava.

"What the **** is going on! Can anyone explain?" Unknown fear shrouded in an instant, causing many people to panic.

"Everyone, Shaoan, don't be irritable." A voice suddenly broke into the crowd, and everyone turned their heads together and found that it was Yu Shengzong's second young master, Sheng Yu.

Walking side by side with Shengyu was Fenghua, a personal disciple of the Sect Master of Tianshou Sect.

"There are still so many monks in the city. It's too late to draw a defense formation. Instead of just screaming when something happens, it's better to start thinking of a solution right away. Didn't you see that all the defense formations of the high-level city came out? It means that we are at least safe now. If we change to any intermediate or low-level city and encounter a surprise attack from nowhere, can we do this?" Fenghua held a black compass in his hand. The pointer was really turning fast, obviously it was out of direction.

Lava is on all sides, and the messy aura in the lava seriously interferes with the magnetic field and completely restricts the communication between the city and the outside.

In other words, all the people in the entire ghost town are now forced to be isolated from the outside world.

Fenghua’s words calmed some monks, but more people were in panic and confusion, because they had no cultivation base and no magic weapon to save their lives. If the protective formation outside the city could not stop them, they Will become the first people to be burned alive by lava.

But at this moment, a red light suddenly appeared in the void, and a figure slowly appeared in the red light.

The man was wearing a long black hooded dress. The hood tightly covered his head, and the upper half of his face. Only two strands of black hair and a sharp chin were exposed.

Even the neck, hands, and feet were tightly covered by black clothes.

"Excuse me, everyone, I am the lord of this ghost city, Xingshu, Xingzimo. The incident happened suddenly, and it was not in time. I hope you can forgive me." After a pause, the covered man in black was strictly covered. He said: "After all, this is a rare trial in a thousand years."

The red light only achieved the function of projection, so Xingshu's body appeared in the air, showing a state of phantom, but despite this, it still got the attention of all the people in the ghost town.

"Xingshu?"

"Speaking of which, the lord of this city is a person named Xingshu, but didn't he give up this city to Yu Shengzong?" Someone asked in a low voice.

"Who told you that he gave up the city? In other words, if you got this high-level city, would you let it out? He just auctioned off the land deed, and the monks of Yu Shengzong were the one who bought the most land deeds. It's just the door, so it looks like it was occupied by Yu Shengzong."

"Xingshu! What the **** is going on! Did you do it?" The monk of Yu Shengzong bought a lot of sites in the city. Of course, he was most concerned about the safety of the city. Seeing unexpected accidents, naturally Very anxious.

Xing Shu gave them enough time to accept, and then continued to say through the phantom body projected by the city spirit: "You guys, don't think of Xing too much. Xing is just a small city lord. Where is it worth to build a city? A trial that is rare in a thousand years? And this is a trial only for the city spirit."

"City spirit?" Feng Hua suddenly flew high into the sky and stood in front of Xingshu's phantom: "City spirit also needs trials?"

"Prince Fenghua, it's been a long time since I saw you." Xing Shu replied with a short beckoning, "I only learned today that the city spirit not only needs to go through trials, but it can also break through the ranks."

Fenghua raised his eyebrows slightly: "What does this mean?"

"It means..." Xing Shu pointed to the top of his head, and said: "If our ghost city's spirit trial is successful this time, the level of the ghost city will be raised again."

"Wow!—"

There was an uproar all around.

"Isn't this already a high-level city? Upgrade again, what will it become?"

Xing Shu opened a smile at the corner of his mouth: "God-level city."

Xingshu opened his arms: "We will witness the birth of a god-level city together!"

"God... God-level city..."

"my God……"

"My Lord, what can we do?"

Xing Shu shook his head: "I want to do something too, but the city spirit told me that I don't have to do anything but wait. Just in case, I specially use the city spirit's phantom to tell everyone."

"Regardless of whether the breakthrough of the city spirit is successful or not, this will be a rare sight. If conditions permit, can you draw a strong defensive formation and work together to ensure your own safety? Watch the breakthrough of a city?"

Feng Hua nodded: "This is natural, and it still needs you to talk about it? What are the benefits of a god-level city? Do you know?"

Xing Shu reluctantly shook his head: "Prince Fenghua, I haven't seen it either. Maybe it's after the city spirit breaks through successfully before I know it. Maybe it's the aura in the city that has greatly improved, maybe it's the further expansion of the territory, maybe it's ......A lot of rare spiritual plants grow on the land in the city?"

Fenghua: "Interesting, then we can wait and see, hope this city spirit will not let us down too much."

Xing Shu nodded slightly: "This image consumes the spiritual power of the city spirit, I won't say more, you guys take care." After that, Xing Shu disappeared in place.

————

In the deep sea, volcanoes are still erupting. Beneath the billowing lava, there are blue and red light arrays. Below the array are the Xinghu and black-scaled mermaid sitting on the head of a giant octopus.

The giant octopus has woken up, even if it has been alive for many years, under such a natural disaster, it still can't help shivering.

[Woo...It's terrible! Had it not been for the empress who woke me up, I would still be asleep under the volcano! 】The octopus rejoiced.

The corner of the black scale mermaid's mouth unconsciously draws a smile.

Xing Shu retorted: "I am not a queen!"

The black scale mermaid smiled down.

[But, didn't you say that he is the current Majesty of the Sea Emperor? 】

Xingshu was a little guilty when he was seen by the black-scaled mermaid's resentful eyes: "He is the Sea Emperor, what does it matter to me?"

[Well, this...] The giant octopus is very puzzled [Isn’t it? You can all hear my voice, and all the sea emperors and queens of the past can hear our voices. 】

The Sea King accepted by the sea clan and the Sea King accepted by the deep sea monsters are not the same in nature at all, so this octopus's statement is not wrong.

After all, how could Sea King, who couldn't even hear their voices, become their leader? They didn't even have the ability to wake them from their deep sleep, and they passed through dynasties one after another.

So in their calculations, only the Sea King who can summon them is their Sea King.

"Perhaps there will be other fish that can hear your voice?" For example, Sasha who has awakened his healing power.

Black Scale Mermaid: "..."

The black-scaled mermaid finally reacted: "Shushu? Are you here, eat it?"

Suddenly left Haicheng without a sound, if it hadn't happened to have awakened a behemoth of the deep sea that was fast enough to escape, it would have been swallowed by lava, and there would be no bones left. The reason for this is not to escape from him, but just because... jealous?

The corners of the black-scaled mermaid's mouth rose up in disarray.

"Yes, I'm just jealous, what's the matter? Do you have an opinion?" Xing Shu confessed without fear at all.

"No, no opinion." It's too late to be happy, how can there be opinions?

The black scale mermaid couldn't help but smirked: "Shushu, waiting for you here today is the most correct decision I have made in my life!"

Xingshu leaned back into the arms of the black-scaled mermaid and looked up at the red lava blocking the protective formation: "This is the first time I have heard that waiting for death is a correct thing. It's decided."

At this time, the protective formation split a crack, and a large amount of magma poured down, which was quickly refilled by the new formation.

The falling magma hit the ground heavily, instantly smashing a large hole on the reef.

The time for these formations to resist the lava is constantly shortening. If this submarine volcano is going to erupt for several days or nights, then the defense formation will be defeated, it is only a matter of time.

Moreover, what is worse than this is that the temperature of the sea has been getting higher and higher.
