If we look at it from the perspective of heaven and earth, although yin and yang are opposite, they always maintain a delicate balance.
The same is true between the righteous path and the demonic path. When the righteous path becomes stronger, the demonic path will not weaken much.
Even if the demonic path was almost completely destroyed, it was also the result of the righteous path having almost exhausted all its power.
In other words, when the demonic path is at its weakest, the righteous path is often at its weakest. When the demonic path is at its strongest, the righteous path will not be much weaker.
Even three thousand years ago, when the demon king Qiu Tianren dominated the world, the righteous way seemed to be declining, but it was secretly accumulating strength, otherwise it would not have been possible after the three patriarchs appeared and killed Qiu Tianren. The righteous way quickly defeated the demon sect. remnant forces.
But now, two of the four sects of the Demon Sect have been wiped out. For the Demon Sect, this is far from a simple injury. It can be said that the foundation has been damaged.
But the power of the righteous path is like burning fire cooking oil, unprecedentedly strong. This is abnormal and completely violates the balance of yin and yang.
If the great catastrophe does not come from the demon sect, but from another source, then the stronger the overall strength of the righteous path is now, does it mean that the great catastrophe that is secretly accumulating power in some unknown way will be more terrifying?
Just like a thousand years ago, the righteous path was extremely prosperous and the demonic path was declining. But just when everyone thought that the world would always be peaceful, the four demon kings appeared out of nowhere and a demonic disaster broke out, almost bringing disaster to the human race. A devastating disaster.
In the end, although the demon disaster was subsided, the human race's vitality was severely damaged, and the strength of the righteous path was very weak. The demonic path also recovered some vitality at that time, and has been fighting against the righteous path since then.
And the current situation is so similar to that before the demon disaster...
Bu Xiaotian didn't dare to think about it anymore. With the current prosperity of Zhengdao, he had to make every effort to prepare for the catastrophe, how terrifying it would be!
Bu Xiaotian turned to look at Xiang Yunwen, and Xiang Yunwen also happened to look towards him.
Both of them saw the fear in each other's eyes, and it seemed that the other party had also thought of this.
However, they seemed to understand each other tacitly, and they didn't say anything more, and quickly put away the expressions in their eyes.
Jiangzhu had been paying attention to the reactions of Bu Xiaotian and Xiang Yunwen. Although the look of fear in their eyes only flashed past, it still did not escape her sight.
"What's wrong? Do you know something?"
Their speculations were too shocking. If they told the truth, they would probably scare Jiang Zhu.
Moreover, everything is just speculation between the two of them and there is no evidence. There is no benefit in saying it like this.
The two looked at each other and were about to make up a lie to fool them.
But Jiangzhu is also the leader of the clan, and his cultivation level is not weaker than theirs now, so how could he miss the little moves of the two of them.
She turned over her hand and took out a round bead the size of a pigeon egg and said:
"Don't think about making up lies to lie to me. This is the truth bead passed down from the ancestors of the Shark clan. If you lie, the truth bead will be sensitive to it."
Although the round bead in Jiangzhu's hand looked ordinary, just like an ordinary pearl, Jiangzhu said that it was an ancestral treasure of the Shark tribe and they had no way of distinguishing it.
The South China Sea is vast, with countless treasures in it, and no one knows what magical things will appear.
At this point, the two of them could no longer continue to lie, so Bu Xiaotian told the truth:
"Sister Jiangzhu, this is just our guess. In the past few years, the three sects..."
Jiangzhu couldn't help but stir up a storm in her heart when she heard Bu Xiaotian tell her two people's guesses.
She clenched her hands unconsciously, and the ball in her palm actually fell apart and turned into pieces under her exertion.
When Bu Xiaotian saw Jiangzhu crushing the ancestral treasure, he couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Sister Jiangzhu, your treasure!"
Jiangzhu was awakened by Bu Xiaotian's voice. She looked at the broken pieces in her hand with a smile on her face and said:
"What treasure? This is just an ordinary pearl. I lied to you!"
Hearing this, Bu Xiaotian and Xiang Yunwen had helpless expressions on their faces. They didn't expect that they would be fooled.
However, they didn't mean to be angry. Instead, they looked at the smile on Jiang Zhu's face and seemed not to care about the disaster, which made them feel a little strange.
Bu Xiaotian asked:
"Sister Jiangzhu, aren't you worried?"
Jiangzhu asked:
"What are you worried about? If the catastrophe is inevitable, all worries are unnecessary. Who can say what will happen in the future?
What we have to do now is to seize the time to prepare. The stronger we are, the greater the chance of surviving the catastrophe. If we really can't survive, there is nothing we can do. "
Unexpectedly, Jiangzhu would be so open-minded, and the worries they had before seemed a bit unnecessary.
When Xiang Yunwen heard Jiangzhu's words, he swept away the haze in his heart and said with a smile:
"Miss Jiangzhu is right. It's useless for us to worry here. We just need to do our best when the disaster comes!"
Seeing that both of them had such attitudes, Bu Xiaotian no longer worried.
The three of them chatted for a while, and Jiangzhu said:
"Okay, the great elder must have selected the people. Let's go out first."
Bu Xiaotian and Xiang Yunwen naturally had no objection.
So the three of them came out of the cave together.
When they arrived outside the cave, they saw the great elder leading seven people outside the cave.
Among them, Commander Haili was the leader, and the others were not sharks, but masters from several big clans that were dependent on the sharks.
The first person has a broad body and his arms are a pair of crab claws. He should be from the crab clan.
The second person has a round head, round eyes, and a huge turtle shell on his body. He looks a little funny, but his aura is still above that of Haili Commander. He must be a master of the turtle clan.
The third person's eyes were dark, his head was wrapped in a hard carapace, and a foot-long spike extended from the back of his head to the top of his head. He was a master of the shrimp clan.
The fourth person has dark skin, a pointed mouth, and two nostrils above the upper jaw. He is a master of the dolphin tribe.
The fifth person also has a round head, but he has six arms, and there are round suckers on the inside of his arms. If you look closely, you can see that his legs are actually two thick tentacles, but he is a tide-watcher. The master of the (octopus) clan.
The sixth man was tall and strong, almost as tall as two Jiangzhus. There was nothing unusual about his appearance, and it was hard to tell which clan he came from.
Seeing Jiangzhu come out, the great elder and several people stopped and said to Jiangzhu:
"Clan leader, these are the experts I have selected. They are all from the largest ethnic groups within thousands of miles. With them around, it will be much easier for you to do things."
"Well, the great elder is interested."
Jiangzhu nodded, there was no other expression on his face, he just responded lightly.
In front of outsiders, Jiangzhu had to act like a patriarch.
Seeing that Jiangzhu didn't say much, the elder moved to the side, revealing a few people behind him, and shouted to them:
"You haven't bowed to the clan leader yet!"
Although several people were scolded by the great elder, they were not dissatisfied at all. Commander Haili bowed first and said:
"Hai Li meets the clan leader!"
Following Commander Haili, the other people also saluted in turn.
"The Green Ao of the Blue Crab Tribe pays homage to the Queen!"
"Black Armor of the Black Turtle Clan pays homage to the Queen!"
"The Red Spear of the Red Shrimp Tribe meets the Queen!"
"Qianyin of the Black Dolphin Tribe meets the Queen!"
"Wang Chao Clan Lan Huan pays homage to the Queen!"
"The giant whale tribe swallows the mountain to pay homage to the queen!"
Although these people were not low in cultivation, they were very respectful in front of Jiangzhu and did not dare to be rude in the slightest.
Not only because of her status as the leader of the Sharman tribe, but also because of the powerful strength she showed five years ago.
Five years ago, the Tiger Shark Clan learned that the Shark Clan had recovered the Holy Artifact, and wanted to take advantage of the fact that Cangwu Mountain had just experienced the chaos and had not yet recovered its strength, to come and snatch the Holy Artifact.
That time, the Tiger Shark Tribe worried countless Sea Tribes, and its momentum was so great that it attracted the attention of all the Sea Tribes in the nearby sea area.
Everyone originally thought that Cangwu Mountain was going to suffer another disaster, but they didn't expect that Jiangzhu, holding a three-edged halberd, blocked countless sea clans by himself, and finally killed the leader of the Tiger Shark clan with one blow.
In the end, she single-handedly drove the entire Tiger Shark clan into the deep sea.
You must know that the leader of the Tiger Shark Clan was the number one master in the South China Sea. In the entire South China Sea, only the leader of the Giant Whale Clan could barely compare with him.
But such a top expert was killed by the Mermaid Queen with one move. One can only imagine how powerful the Mermaid Queen is!
That battle completely established the status of the shark clan as the royal family of the South China Sea, and the reputation of the shark queen spread throughout the South China Sea!
After everyone had finished saluting, the Great Elder said in a deep voice:
"This time when you go out with the clan leader, you must protect the clan leader and never let the clan leader be harmed in the slightest, otherwise I will not let you go lightly!"
Although Jiangzhu's cultivation level is higher than that of these guards, he still needs to give instructions.
After hearing the great elder's words, several people responded in unison and said:
"Follow the orders of the Great Elder!"
Seeing that the great elder had finished speaking, Jiangzhu nodded slightly to the great elder and said:
"Great Elder, during my absence, please urge your clan members to practice diligently!"
The great elder was slightly surprised when he heard this, with a thoughtful look on his face.
Others don't know Jiangzhu's temperament, how could he not know it?
Although Jiangzhu is the leader of the Sharman Clan, he pays little attention to matters within the clan. Almost everything is managed by a few of their elders.
This time she went out of her way and told him to urge his people to practice, which he couldn't help but think more about.
Although the great elder had many thoughts in his mind, they did not show it on his face. He bowed and replied:
"Yes, patriarch!"
Seeing that the great elder agreed, Jiangzhu said to the people standing beside him:
"Let's go!"
After saying that, he and Bu Xiaotian took the lead and flew towards the outside of the island.
The seven people selected by the great elder did not dare to delay and immediately followed the three people.
After leaving Cangwu Mountain, Tunshan turned into his true body and carried others forward in the sea.
The body of Tunshan is a huge whale. The entire whale looks like a small island, and the part exposed above the water is dozens of feet in diameter.
The giant whale swam extremely fast in the sea, actually a few minutes faster than Bu Xiaotian flying with his sword.
This is done not only to get on the road faster, but also to save the energy of others.
This is also just in case.
After all, the South China Sea is too big. Although almost all the sea tribes recognize the status of the Sharman Clan as the royal family of the South China Sea, there are some sea tribes with advanced cultivation who have not surrendered.
If they encounter some powerful sea tribes that are hostile to the Sharman tribe, they will not be unable to deal with them due to lack of physical strength.
Fortunately, their trip went smoothly and they encountered no trouble.
Three days later, Bu Xiaotian and his group of ten people came to a place on the sea according to the records on the white silk.
Tunshan slowly stopped under Jiangzhu's instructions, letting the surrounding waves push and beat him, but his body remained motionless, as if he had truly transformed into a rock.
After Tunshan stopped, Jiangzhu said to Bu Xiaotian and Xiang Yunwen:
"This is the closest underwater volcano to Cangwu Mountain. The crater is thousands of feet below us."
Bu Xiaotian nodded when he heard this and said:
"Then let's go down right now!"
No one else had any objections either.
Then I saw the remaining six guards jumping up at the same time and falling into the sea.
Before entering the sea water, they all turned into their original bodies.
Qing Ao turned into a green crab that was several feet in size.
The black armor turned into a black turtle that was several times larger than a giant crab.
The red gun turned into a red prawn that was also several feet long.
Qianyin turned into a black dolphin more than ten feet long.
The blue ring turned into an octopus with eight huge tentacles and blue stripes on its body.
Commander Haili also changed into a shark-like appearance that is more suitable for moving in the water. He has a body with a fish tail, gills under his jaw, and fins behind his ears. He holds a three-bladed halberd in his hand that is very similar to the shark's sacred weapon.
After all the guards fell into the sea, Jiangzhu turned over his hands and took out two beads that exuded light fluorescence and said:
"This is a water-proof bead. With this, you can move freely in the water and your strength will not be affected."
"Thank you, Sister Jiangzhu."
Bu Xiaotian and Xiang Yunwen did not reject Jiangzhu's kindness. Although they knew some water-avoiding spells, they were not as convenient on land after all, and the further down they went, the more difficult it became.
Now that this water-proof bead is here, it saves a lot of trouble.
The two took the water-avoiding beads, nodded to Jiang Zhu, and jumped into the sea.
After entering the water, I didn't feel any discomfort at all, and I could even breathe very freely, as if the surrounding seawater didn't exist.
The two of them just dived into the water, and Jiangzhu followed them.
At this time, Jiangzhu also transformed into the shape of a mermaid with human body and fish tail, but compared with Commander Haili, he looked much smaller. His long hair fluttered up and down with the sea water, and coupled with the constantly changing light in the water, there was an indescribable feeling. of beauty.
Jiangzhu nodded slightly to the people waiting in the water, swung the fish's tail slightly, and swam down head first.
During the dive, various fishes swam past them, and those who were brave enough would swim with a few people for a while.
Both Bu Xiaotian and Xiang Yunwen dived into the sea for the first time. Looking at the strange scenes in the sea around them, they were filled with admiration. They swam downstream while admiring the surrounding scenery. They looked very comfortable.
