Although all the Transcendents were really anxious, they still waited patiently, because they knew that the Demigod overlords were trying their hardest to defend the various territories of the Xia Clan.

“I never would have thought that a demon invasion would happen in our era!” Yuan Qing couldn’t believe it, he felt confused and had mixed emotions regarding the situation .

“Since ancient times, our Xia Clan often had demon invasions,”explained Xue Ying. “The Dark Abyss is where darkness, destruction, and negativity gather. It can connect with numerous material planes and worlds. Occasionally, when there’s a spatial fluctuation, the Dark Abyss can establish a connection with our Xia Clan world for a short period of time. I don’t know how long this fluctuation lasts, though.”

“Mn,” Cheng Ling Shu was also worried. “From the information we have received so far, the invasion this time is quite severe.”

Demon invasions also have degrees in severity.

In Xia Clan’s history, the largest demon invasion involved 300 demon Demigods, not including other lower ranked demons. The Xia Clan’s humankind and beasts faced extinction, leaving only a small number who took refuge in the Infernal Realm. Even the Infernal Realm was attacked by the demons while humankind could only fend for themselves.

The events of that time were really tragic!

As time passed by, some of the demons left whilst others gradually died due to old age, reducing their numbers. After all, it was really difficult for demons to multiply or have offspring in the human world. But humankind didn’t have that same difficulty, so gradually the situation reversed, enabling humankind to overcome the situation and go back to their hometowns. But that story was from 90,000 years ago.

Of course, in the long history of Xia Clan, this kind of severe demon invasion only happened twice. One time was the long battle from 90,000 years ago and the second time was 30,000 years ago.

As for the other demon invasions…

Most of these invasions were smaller in scale. Only a handful of demons were lucky enough to find and pass through inconspicuous space cracks and posed no threat to the Xia Clan.

“With what we know, in the short period of time since these demons have arrived, the prefecture city has already been attacked three times,” commented Yu Jing Jiu. “The invasion this time is quite large”

“Ai, so hateful!” Zong Tu couldn’t accept it. “Unfortunately my strength is too weak, otherwise I would have gone to kill those damned Dark Abyss demons!”

Xue Ying also felt anxious.

But the Infernal Realm had already been temporarily shut off from the mortal realm and Transcendents were currently prohibited from going there. The Transcendents could only wait for further instructions from the Infernal Palace whilst they stayed inside the Xia Capital.

…

The sky gradually darkened.

The cold air also become colder, but Xue Ying and the others could only wait. Actually, Xue Ying was really worried about his family since the demons were attacking without restraint. Were his parents and little brother still fine? But he had no way of rescuing them. He was only able to communicate with them by using the communication wristband, asking them to temporarily seek shelter in a remote area at the foot of the mountain.

“Mn?” Xue Ying suddenly let out a voice. Cheng Ling Shu, Yu Jing Qiu, Zong Tu, Yuan Qing and the others looked at their communication wristbands.

A message was sent to each of them.

This massage was from the Infernal Palace.

“Now is the time for war!

“As you already know, Dark Abyss demons have already invaded. We are unable to determine the exact scale of the invasion, but there are two things you Transcendents have to keep in mind!”

“One, people can only enter but not leave the Infernal Realm! All Demigods and below have to stay in the Infernal Realm, awaiting further commands.”

“Two, our Xia Clan Demigods can help relocate all the important family members of Transcendents into the Infernal Realm. All Transcendents, please inform us of their names within the next two hours. Remember, each Transcendent is only allowed to write a maximum of ten mortal’s names.”

The message was really simple.

But it caused some Transcendents to feel pressure.
