The Winged Flaming Beetles underground stopped chasing after a certain extent. Xia Pingan did not encounter any Winged Flaming Beetles later on.
There were about two to three thousand Summoners gathered above the island at the underground entrance of the Immortal City. More than half of these Summoners were escaping from the Immortal City. There were also two Red Deacons in the sky. One of them was Liang Tian. Liang Tian also ran out. There were also many other black-robed and white-robed disciples.
There were also many Summoners in the Immortal Sea. When they saw the commotion here, they flew over to watch the show.
This caused more and more Summoners to gather above the island.
"Ha, another one came out. He's really lucky …" Seeing Xia Pingan fly out from the underground, some of the Summoners who were watching exclaimed. The sea breeze blew, and the surrounding voices blew into Xia Pingan's ears.
The destruction of the Immortal City of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect was indeed a big deal to the Summoners gathered in the Immortal Sea. However, for those who were watching the show, it was not a big deal. They just felt that it was very sudden.
The Abyssal Worm King was very strong, but it was only in the Nine Suns Realm. There were no Nine Suns Realm powerhouses in the Immortal City of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect, but in the Immortal Sea, there was more than one Nine Suns Realm powerhouse.
Of course, this did not mean that the Ten Thousand Gods Sect was weak. It was just that the Immortal City was only a small branch of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect in the Immortal Sea. It was usually managed by the Eight Suns Realm, and there were no elders overseeing it. The Ten Thousand Gods Sect did not send a Nine Suns Realm powerhouse to guard it. Therefore, the Abyssal Worm King took advantage of the situation. If the Ten Thousand Gods Sect had a Nine Suns Realm elder overseeing the Immortal City, it would be hard to say what the Immortal City's situation would be like now.
Standing in the void, Xia Pingan found that everyone's eyes were focused on him. The feeling of being the center of attention was not very good. He looked around and quickly flew into the crowd beside him. He was not in a hurry to leave and continued to watch here.
"The Abyssal Worm King launched a surprise attack on the Immortal City. I heard that the Immortal City is finished …"
"I wonder how is the Abyss Stronghold of the Ten Thousand Gods Sect?"
"Wan Shen Sect's Abyss Stronghold is protected by a top-level formation. Even the Abyss Worm King can't do anything about it. It should be able to protect itself. If that Abyss Stronghold was so easy to take down, the Worm King would have directly attacked the Stronghold. Why would he need to attack the Immortal City from the underground …" The crowd in the sky discussed.
"Abyssal Worm King, it hasn't appeared for many years. I didn't expect it to appear this time …"
"Those Winged Flame Beetles should have quite a few good Realm Pearls on them, right? Why don't we go down and make a fortune, kill a few Winged Flame Beetles, and see if we can get a few Realm Pearls …"
"We don't know the situation underground yet. Didn't you see the disciples of Wan Shen Sect running out? We don't know how many insects are coming out of the abyss. Let's see the situation first …"
The surrounding crowd was filled with noises.
All of a sudden, a white-robed disciple of Wan Shen Sect with the smell of sulfur and gunpowder flew to Xia Pingan's side. After sizing up Xia Pingan, he asked, "Brother, are you also from Immortal City?"
"Yes!" Xia Pingan nodded.
"Are you an outer disciple of Wan Shen Sect?"
"Yes!" Xia Pingan nodded.
"Deacon Liang Tian wants to ask you something …"
Xia Pingan didn't know what Liang Tian wanted to do, but he had a good impression of Liang Tian. He also saw the place where Liang Tian was. Many outer disciples flew out from the ground and were called over. Liang Tian and another red-robed deacon asked a few questions one by one. After that, some of the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Divine Sect left. Liang Tian didn't make things difficult for them.
Xia Pingan directly followed that white-robed disciple and flew to Liang Tian's side.
"Greetings, Deacon Liang." Xia Pingan bowed towards Liang Tian. At this moment, his voice had changed, so Liang Tian couldn't recognize it.
"What's your name? Are you also a disciple of Wan Shen Sect? I don't think you look familiar." Liang Tian asked as he glanced at Xia Pingan's face.
"I'm Zhang Tie. I've just joined Wan Shen Sect for less than a month. I've only been in Immortal City for a few days. I've not made any contributions to the sect!" Xia Pingan said straightforwardly.
"Did you see any other deacons below?"
"No!" Xia Pingan shook his head.
"Where's the insectoid army?"
Xia Pingan also shook his head.
"Did you see anyone else?"
Those summoners who had escaped from Immortal City had either returned to the surface or were hiding in the maze-like underground world to avoid those winged flaming bugs. Some of them were even escaping towards the Abyss Fortress, hoping to find shelter in the fortress.
When he broke through the encirclement on the battlefield, Xia Pingan saw that different summoners would choose different directions. He chose to return to the surface first.
Liang Tian asked Xia Pingan several questions consecutively, and Xia Pingan answered all of them. It seemed that Liang Tian wanted to know more about the underground world.
Finally, Liang Tian told Xia Pingan, "The catastrophe in Immortal City was indeed unexpected. However, when we deacons left Immortal City, we've already contacted the Abyss Fortress. The Abyss Fortress allowed us to break through the encirclement and return to the surface first. Wan Shen Sect has already known what happened in Immortal City. Elders will come here to deal with it. Don't panic. You're an outer disciple of Wan Shen Sect, so the sect doesn't impose too many requirements on you. You can do whatever you want these days. If you want to find us, you can come to Misty Mountain on Cloud Island, which is one of the strongholds of Wan Shen Sect in Immortal Sea …"
"Okay, I got it. Thank you, Deacon Liang!"
Xia Pingan was just an outer disciple. Therefore, Liang Tian didn't pay too much attention to him. After a few words, there was no more problem.
Xia Pingan flew to one side and observed silently.
There were still a lot of summoners coming out of Immortal City from the underground entrance. Xia Pingan took a look. In the battle with the Winged Flaming Bugs, the Winged Flaming Bugs' plan should have failed. There weren't many summoners who died. Everyone used their magical powers and most of them should have escaped.
A few hours later, the sky gradually darkened. Two red-clothed deacons led a team of white-robed disciples and hundreds of outer disciples to fly out from below. They quickly met up with Liang Tian and the others.
Several red-clothed deacons gathered together and discussed in a low voice. They didn't continue to wait here. Instead, they left a black-robed disciple and five white-robed disciples to guard the entrance. Several red-clothed deacons led the white-robed and black-robed disciples of Wan Shen Sect, as well as a group of outer disciples to leave this place and fly towards the south.
There were about two thousand people who left.
Xia Pingan also left with the group.
At this time, it was safer to follow a large group. It was better than running around alone. There were all kinds of people who were watching the bustle at the entrance and exit. There might be some who had ulterior motives and wanted to take advantage of the situation.
Flying over the vast sea with the sea breeze, Xia Pingan suddenly remembered his doppelganger — Luo An, who was still in Paris.
He had left in a hurry and didn't have time to make any preparations. Once the spirit body left the body, the body would fall into a deep sleep, just like a vegetable. The consumption of the body would be normal, and it wouldn't have any ability to protect itself.
He fainted in Emily's house. He didn't know what Emily would do to him. If Emily buried him or threw him on the street, that doppelganger would be finished.
Xia Pingan was a little worried, but at this time, it was useless to worry. He could only settle the matter of his main body first. The worst case scenario was that his previous doppelganger was really damaged and died. All his previous efforts would be in vain. At worst, he could only find another doppelganger when he returned to the spiritual realm.
After flying in the air for five or six hours, a huge island appeared on the horizon ahead.
It was a coconut-shaped island with an area of about seventy to eighty thousand square kilometers. The island was very lively. There were summoners flying everywhere in the sky. There seemed to be two large-scale cities on the island, one in the south and one in the north. Looking down from the sky at night, the north and south ends of the island were brightly lit and densely populated.
In the middle of the island was a long and towering mountain range. Some of the mountain peaks seemed to be active volcanoes. They were still emitting thick black smoke. Magma could be seen flowing down from the volcanoes and rolling into the sea.
After arriving here, Liang Tian and the others flew towards the mountain peak in the middle of the island. Xia Pingan separated from the rest of the group. Many outer disciples in the group also separated at this time.
Everyone understood that when they arrived at Ethereal Mountain, outer disciples wouldn't enjoy much rights in the sect. They would be inferior to others everywhere. They were afraid that they wouldn't be too comfortable. Therefore, it was better to find a place to settle down on the island. At least they could have more freedom. If they really collected enough Insect Crystals, it wouldn't be too late to go to Ethereal Mountain after seeing the reaction of Wan Shen Sect.
Xia Pingan and some outer disciples of Wan Shen Sect were divided into two groups. One group flew towards the city in the south of the island, and the other group flew towards the city in the north of the island. Xia Pingan was closer and flew towards the city in the north of Cloud Island.
After a while, Xia Pingan landed on a brightly lit street in the city.
There were too many people here. It was more than ten times more than Immortal City. The street was brightly lit and pedestrians were weaving together. It was a lively atmosphere. There were people selling all kinds of things. Moreover, the people here weren't as monotonous as Immortal City. Looking at the people on the street, there were people from all walks of life. There were even mermaids swaggering around the city. Many mermaids were peddling things like pearls and medicines from the sea.
They had just come from the destroyed Immortal City to such a lively place. The huge contrast made Xia Pingan absent-minded for a moment.
"Fortune telling and divination, honest to all. If you look for me, Liu Banxian, you only need 100 gold coins …"
Xia Pingan was sizing up this bustling street when suddenly, a familiar voice drilled into his ears. He turned his head and saw Liu Yiqian, who was wearing a cyan summoner's robe, carrying a horsetail whisk on his back, and holding a bamboo pole in his right hand. On the bamboo pole, there was a signboard for fortune-telling. Liu Yiqian was shouting as he walked away from afar.
Xia Pingan was slightly stunned. This guy, what a coincidence. He actually met him here again.
However, this wasn't what surprised Xia Pingan. What surprised Xia Pingan even more was that he saw people from Blood Demon Church here …
