Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The black hole was a cosmic portal previously sealed by the God of Cooking Set. Tongtian had exerted his power and replaced the artifact with his Immortal Slaughtering Sword, trying to seal it again. However, just as it shrank, a black beast paw suddenly stretched out of it. The portal was torn apart, and a terrible aura erupted from it.
The Sect Leader’s pupils constricted, while the experts from Atlantis turned pale and trembled violently.
At the same time, Soul Demons clad in black scales were emerging from the other black holes on Earth. A horrible demonic aura soon filled the whole world.
At the icy field of Siberia, a Soul Demon with four wings on his back flew out of the black hole, his eyes shot with blood. As soon as he appeared, the ice sheet began to melt and burst. He took a deep breath, and a surge of spiritual energy poured into him in an instant.
“What a fresh aura… We have finally found the Ancestral Planet of mankind!”
…
At the Bermuda Triangle, a dreadful Soul Demon as monstrous as a Titan emerged from the rotating black hole, emitting a demonic aura that filled the sky. The sea rose, turning into huge waves to sweep out in all directions.
…
Bu Fang was lounging on a reclining chair, basking in the sun at the State Supernatural Agency’s base in Jiangdong. He looked very relaxed. Although he was searching for Black Turtle, he maintained the attitude that if he found him, he was lucky; if he did not, he was destined to fail. Besides, he had always been so calm.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked up at the sky. The color of the sky changed at this moment—the brilliant sun was suddenly covered by a layer of black aura as if it had been polluted.
“Hmm? The Soul Demon’s demonic aura?”
Bu Fang was stunned for a moment. Then, the sound of a harsh alarm rang out from the base, alarming all the superhumans and sending them into action.
Moments later, Chief Luo and Xiao Ai strode toward Bu Fang. They were heavily armed and wearing camouflage uniforms. “Senior… Something serious has happened!” said the chief, looking at Bu Fang. His face was very unsightly.
At the same time, Nethery and the Empyrean Fairy also came from the other direction. They looked confused. The fairy looked up at the sky and felt a sense of fear rise from deep inside her.
“It seems like a great terror is coming…”
“This happened so suddenly. All our branches have already started to act… Xiao Ai, explain the situation to Senior,” said Chief Luo.
Xiao Ai hurried to Bu Fang’s side, squatted down, opened the computer in her hand, and showed him a green map.
“Senior, look here. Countless powerful energy points have appeared in the four unstable portals on Earth. They are unlike any energy points we know of, with a terrible corrosive and evil nature,” said Xiao Ai, her face very grave.
“According to the reliable information we received, there has been a dramatic increase in the primal human desire in the areas covered by those energy points. The people there became greedy and selfish, killing each other. Above all, some kind of evil creature is gradually encroaching on us…”
Xiao Ai explained while pointing the map with her finger.
Bu Fang nodded. Judging from their ability to affect human emotions, he was already able to guess what they were. They were Soul Demons. He had not expected them to find Earth so quickly.
“These Soul Demons are a real pain in the neck…”
As the hub of cosmic portals, Earth was connected to the major universes. The three human emperors were suppressing one portal that connected the Soul Demon Universe, but the four remaining portals connected the other universes. If one universe was overrun by Soul Demons, they would be able to descend on Earth through the portal.
Bu Fang took a deep breath and stood up. Even the three human emperors were fighting so hard against the Soul Demons to prevent the birthplace of mankind from being invaded, so what reason did he have to be lazy?
‘Tongtian should have already started killing Soul Demons at this point, right?’ he thought to himself.
…
There was a place called Dongshi on the coast of Hua. It was a small fishing village that had been making a living by fishing for generations. The villagers here spent their days fishing and drying fish. They knew how to eat fish, how to marinate fish, how to make dried fish, and how to cook all kinds of delicious fish dishes.
The small fishing village was about a few dozen kilometers from the city and could only be reached by a rather bumpy road. Life here was peaceful. The villagers were self-sufficient and led a very leisurely life.
The bright sunlight made the sea sparkle, and the waves pushed at each other as they raced toward the sandy shore, bringing the salty sea breeze to the land. This was the most primitive beach, not developed by humans as a tourist area. No outsiders had set foot here, except the villagers of Dongshi.
A stretch of houses could be found on the east coast of the beach. They were all simple huts, and though small, they had all the tools for the occupants to make their living.
In front of one of the huts that needed some repair, a bald old man sat asleep in an old rocking chair. His body was swaying slightly, making the chair creak.
Villagers were busy working around him. When the women saw him sleeping, they could not help but chuckle. The children were playing around his feet, but no matter how noisy the children were, they could not make the old man wake up.
