Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 951 917: Each Encounter (Two Chapters in One)_2

Pain!

Unbearable pain!!

Fortunately, this situation lasted only for about two or three seconds. Song Ningran was the first to recover her senses. She had the bloodline of the True Dragon and Golden Crow, and although she was only equivalent to the Saint Lord level, her body's strength was extremely high, almost comparable to Divine Beasts of the same level, so her resistance was naturally stronger.

Xue Qinan came to her senses about a minute later than Song Ningran. She cultivated the inheritance of the ancient Immortal Nine Heavens Xuan Nu, a Goddess renowned as one of the ancient War Gods. Her physical strength was naturally not bad, just a bit inferior to Song Ningran's.

Qi Jia was the most unfortunate. She was only an ordinary person, at most having some martial arts skills, but hadn't even trained to Open Force, making it difficult to resist the pressure of dimensional and temporal travel. She had now fallen into a coma, and even though Qin Heng had used mana to heal her, it would likely take another one or two hours for her to wake up.

"Where are we now?" Song Ningran looked around and found herself in a wilderness area, surrounded by weeds and scattered rocks, with mountains in the distance. It seemed desolate.

"From the principles of Dao and the state of Heavenly Essence, we are indeed back on Earth, but I don't know where this place is." Xue Qinan furrowed her brows slightly and then looked at Qin Heng, saying, "Mr. Qin, can you tell where we are?"

"It seems to be England?" Qin Heng spread out his Divine Sense, instantly covering an area spanning tens of thousands of miles and naturally sensed some city conditions, thus knowing where they were.

"England?" Song Ningran was taken aback upon hearing this, exclaiming, "Isn't that where Little Yun wanted to go earlier? Oh, Qin Hengxian, what happened after you went to save Little Yun? We got captured by the Empress of Southern Tang before you returned, so we still don't know how Little Yun is doing."

"Little Yun is fine, but she did go to London. I gave her a Spirit Sword, capable of slaying all creatures below the Saint King level, sufficient for her needs." Qin Heng's Divine Sense started to spread, following the Spirit Sword's aura he had woven from his hair to further pinpoint Qin Yun's location.

Qin Yun went to London, and this place was not far from London. Even though Earth had expanded many times, greatly increasing the distance between the two, the wilderness they were in now was less than a hundred thousand kilometers from London.

For Qin Heng now, traversing such a distance wouldn't take much time; traveling through the Spirit Realm was still extremely convenient.

"Little Yun previously received a call for help from a girl code-named King Arthur in London, whose actual intention was to seek your assistance, Mr. Xuantian." Xue Qinan also released her Spiritual Sense, perceiving the surrounding conditions of this region, saying solemnly, "It seems the situation in England is already dire."

From her Spiritual Sense perception, nearby towns had become ruins, seemingly abandoned for quite some time, with buildings violently destroyed, the ground pitted with deep holes, and corrosion marks everywhere, evidently the result of rampaging Nine Nether Evil Demons.

"England has a rich historical heritage, how did it become like this?" Song Ningran wondered, puzzled, "From England's historical heritage, there ought to be several dormant Great Saints reviving, enough to resist most of the Nine Nether Evil Demons, it shouldn't be this desolate."

Actually, as early as one or two months ago, various Nine Nether Evil Demons began appearing on Earth, possessing enormous destructive power and strong defenses, making secular armies often forced into a corner, even struggling to deal with Saint-level demons.

As for Great Saint-level demons, there was essentially no way; even deploying nuclear weapons for bombing couldn't harm Nine Nether Evil Demons of this level, leaving all hope on the transcendent beings.

If not for certain nations having several dormant Great Saints reviving after the recovery of Spiritual Energy, Earth, once incapable in the transcendental sphere, simply couldn't contend with these Nine Nether Evil Demons.

Although there were these ancient revived Great Saints, the strength disparity worldwide remained evidently pronounced, with deep historical roots naturally indicating power, while shallower ones indicated weakness, even potentially lacking dormant ancient Great Saints.

England was naturally not considered weak; it had had civilization thousands of years ago, where many strong figures were once dormant. With the recovery of Spiritual Energy now, there's certainly expected to be five or six, maybe three or four revived Great Saints of considerable strength.

Even if England didn't have them, neighboring countries should at least have revived powerhouses. Yet judging from the plight of local towns around here, it doesn't seem there's anyone powerful suppressing the land and protecting the people.

It appears there's a severe shortage of transcendent power, even inadequately able to fend off, let alone suppress these Nine Nether Evil Demons.

"There must've been some unforeseen circumstances." Qin Heng calculated with his fingers, eyes sparkling, understanding the cause and effect completely, and having reached a decision, he looked to the east and said, "I've understood the reason behind it. Let's find Little Yun first and then clear out the Nine Nether Evil Demons here."

"Yes, let's find Little Yun first!"

Song Ningran and Xue Qinan nodded, watching over Qi Jia as they followed behind Qin Heng.

...

London.

This is the capital of England, founded by the Romans over two thousand years ago.

This city was once the world's largest financial center, controlling 45% of the global foreign exchange trading and pricing rights for commodities like gold, silver, and crude oil, also being the world's largest banking, insurance, futures, and shipping center.

The residents here were incredibly wealthy, with total resident wealth even ranking second worldwide.

Undeniably.

London indeed was once one of the wealthiest, most economically developed, most commercially prosperous places, and the city with the highest standard of living in the world, influencing the world in politics, economy, culture, education, technology, finance, business, sports, media, and fashion!

But now, there is only a collection of broken walls and ruins left here. The magnificent churches, towering buildings, ancient squares, all past prosperity have become void under the rampage of Nine Nether Evil Demons, with once elegant lifestyles all passing away like fleeting clouds.

To the people of London now, simply surviving is already the best outcome.

Boom!

Deafening loud noises echoed within London city, one after another towering humanoid creatures, standing three to forty meters tall, roamed through what was once the bustling city.

They had faces covered with eyes, ranging from dozens to hundreds, and beneath these densely packed eyes was a mouth drooling green saliva, which corroded enormous holes on the ground or buildings wherever it dripped.

Below the city of London was a myriad of interconnected sewers, now serving as a refuge for only remaining transcendents and numerous ordinary citizens.

Listening to the tremendous rumblings from above.

Many ordinary people couldn't help but hug their knees, sobbing quietly, regardless of gender or age, with expressions full of fear, but nobody dared to cry out loudly.

Because, although those monsters seemed to lack ears, their perception was incredibly keen, and even slightly louder noises would get detected.

Qin Yun was currently with these people, holding a pitch-black longsword in her hand, as Ji Nanxiang stood beside her with a pale face, having been injured, and even her Divine Power was somewhat scattered.

On the other side was the young girl Eiliana, codenamed King Arthur, now only accompanied by three others who were inheritors of the Knights of the Round Table. The rest had already died in previous battles.

"Yun, and Nanxiang, thank you." Eiliana looked gratefully towards Qin Yun and Ji Nanxiang, saying, "Without your arrival in the previous battle, we might truly have not held on."

"No, don't thank me; I came with my brother's power, but unfortunately, I didn't use it well." Qin Yun sighed softly, a bit self-blaming, saying, "My strength is still too weak, even holding my brother's sword, yet I let someone get hurt..."

Boom!!

At this moment, a sudden, enormous and incredibly clear loud bang came from above everyone's heads, followed by intense vibrations, and then a giant foot seven or eight meters long shattered the ground, stepping into this sewer!
