The invasion of the Flame Devils had just been repelled, the storm on the East Sea finally calming down.
However, as Yan Zhaoge saw it, looking at the situation of the Eight Extremities World as a whole, the influence of the invasion of the Flame Devils this time had only just begun to ferment.
No matter what, Jade Sea City now possessed its own Sacred Artifact, the Jade Sea Pill Heart Sword. This caused Jade Sea City's strength to improve greatly.
If not for the great tribulation brought about by the Flame Devils this time, causing Jade Sea City to suffer the most grievous losses, suffering a great blow to its vitality, Jade Sea City would have immediately surpassed Infinite Boundless Mountain, Turbid Wave Pavilion and the Heavenly Thunder Hall.
Facing Broad Creed Mountain and the Sacred Sun Clan, even if they were inferior, they would still be on the same level.
The invasion of the Flame Devils had resulted in a great tribulation for Jade Sea City. While the Jade Sea Pill Heart Sword had been successfully forged, the City Lord Song Wuliang had been injured and the Jade Sea Limitless Grand Formation that guarded the clan had been completely abandoned, having to be set up anew.
Aside from this, their disciples had suffered heavy casualties. The Flame Devils had also invaded the Inner Eastern Sea, which was their territory, causing losses in various areas.
Its foundation and potential were already laid out there. Able to tide through these tough times and recover its vitality, when Jade Sea City next appeared before the world in its peak condition, it was destined to be even stronger than before this great tribulation.
However, how they could tide through these bitter days was the problem that Jade Sea City had to face.
First not mentioning whether the Flame Devils might invade once more, just the interior of the Eight Extremities World alone was something that Jade Sea City would have to raise their vigilance.
It was very hard to imagine that the Sacred Sun Clan and the Heavenly Thunder Hall would sit by and watch as Jade Sea City recovered its vitality.
After the great tribulation of Broad Creed Mountain, the alliance of Broad Creed Mountain, Jade Sea City and Infinite Boundless Mountain had originally already held the upper hand against the Sacred Sun Clan and the Heavenly Thunder Hall.
If Jade Sea City's strength rose a step further, the disadvantage of the Thunder and Fire Domain Alliance would undoubtedly be even greater.
In the great battle against the Flame Devils this time, the Sacred Sun Clan's Huang Guanglie and the Heavenly Thunder Hall's Shen Li had both not suffered much damage.
That Song Wuliang had been in a rush to return to Jade Sea City to watch over it was out of consideration for his safety.
While he wanted to recuperate from his injuries, he would also have to constantly be on the lookout for the Sacred Sun Clan and the Heavenly Thunder Hall to suddenly come knocking on his door.
After this great battle, Yuan Zhengfeng's condition had also been comparatively better. As an ally, he was a powerful aid that Jade Sea City could trust.
It was just that with the invasion of the Flame Devils this time, Jade Sea City had already owed Broad Creed Mountain too many favours, causing Song Wuliang and the others to feel very pressured.
Yan Zhaoge stroked his lower chin, "Turbid Wave Pavilion shouldn't have any problems, right?"
As the pillar of Turbid Wave Pavilion, the Pavilion Lord An Qinglin had been injured in this great battle, possibly even being the one who had been injured the most amongst all the Martial Saint experts of the Eight Extremities World.
When she returned to the mountain this time, she was most likely going to cultivate in seclusion to heal her wounds. Otherwise, she might be left with an injury that would last forever. Not to mention that her path to ascension would be blocked, it would be a miracle if she didn't drop her cultivation level.
With An Qinglin in seclusion, Turbid Wave Pavilion's strength appeared somewhat weak.
Although they had always maintained a neutral stance, Turbid Wave Pavilion, which controlled the vast territory of the Lake Region's Six Paths and possessed limitless resources, could be coveted by others.
"I don't think there will be a problem." Yan Zhaoge pondered, "Under such circumstances, if anyone were to make a move on Turbid Wave Pavilion, they would probably incur public wrath."
"Even if we occupy the territory of the Lake Region, converting the resources into tangible growth in strength isn't something that can be done in a day or two."
The group returned to Broad Creed Mountain in the Central Heaven Region of the Heaven Domain. Along the way, news and intelligence reports from various places were unceasingly reported to Yuan Zhengfeng and Yan Zhaoge.
Accompanied by the subsiding of the abnormalities in the Fire Pith Veins, the Outer East Sea gradually regained its calm. Its influence on the surrounding regions of sea, similar to the tsunamis and surging tides caused by the change in the climate, also slowly subsided.
The earlier calamity had affected even the coasts of the mainland.
However, the greatest influence was still the circulation of the spiritual qi of the earth veins.
It wasn't like how Yan Zhaoge had previously made use of the Fire Pith Essence of the Southern Underground Palace when his Broad Creed Mountain had attacked the Fire Domain to locate it.
This time, all the spiritual qi of the earth veins of the entire Outer East Sea had been transformed into Fire Pith Essence, simultaneously affecting the changes in the surrounding earth veins.
With the Outer East Sea as its core, the surrounding Inner East Sea, Outer North Sea, Outer South Sea as well as the distant seas further east all experienced changes in the earth veins at the bottom of the sea, the blazing hot fire qi retreating as a biting cold qi surged upwards.
In the North Sea which had originally already been cold, the number of glaciers increased greatly.
The easternmost region of the mainland, the waters of the East Sea, was also facing a similar situation.
These were all the aftereffects of boiling the East Sea, and had to be dealt with slowly.
Hearing the news, Fu Enshu shook her head, "Not their own territory, the Flame Devils really don't feel much pain stirring up trouble, leaving behind problems. At the end of the day, it is still us of the Eight Extremities World who have to deal with the aftermath. I really hope that one day, we will be able to flatten the Flame Devil World!"
Yan Zhaoge laughed bitterly, "In their own territory, the Flame Devils will probably be completely unbridled in their rampage."
"As for flatten the Flame Devil World …" Yan Zhaoge lightly rubbed his temples, "The time is currently still not ripe ah."
The eruption of the underground fire of the Outer East Sea, the blazing fire boiling the sea, had already caused the strength of the Flame Devils to soar greatly, turning the tables on them as they occupied the geographical advantage.
In the Flame Devil World that they had originally lived in, the home-ground advantage as well as the increase in their strength would be even more evident.
Yuan Zhengfeng said, "Zhaoge, the technique you used to break through the core of that fire net seems to have a suppressive effect on the Flame Devils?"
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "It was a result of my own attempts to restore an ancient technique. I named it the Cold Abyss Domain."
"Its source lies in an expert of pre-Great Calamity times who was acclaimed alongside the Flame Devil Emperor and the Thunder Emperor, the Ice Emperor."
"The Ice Emperor's divine abilities were unrivalled, but the legacies and legacies that were left behind were extremely rare, scattered and fragmented, completely not forming a system, making it hard for people to witness his former glory."
Yan Zhaoge extended his hands forward, one palm facing upwards, the other moving across his palm, leaving behind one mark after another.
Then, his true essence condensed the water vapour into ice, gradually condensing into an icicle.
However, this icicle was still only in its embryonic form. For it to be put to use, a long time of polishing and refining would be required.
As he demonstrated, he explained, "I attempted to combine the few words that had been passed down from ancient texts, combining them with my clan's formation legacies, barely managing to restore a bit of the Ice Emperor's ancient technique, with some principles and techniques that I had comprehended after entering the old residence of the Glacial Dragon Martial Saint, finally combining them into its current form."
"Currently, there are still many areas where it has yet to mature. In coming to the East Sea this time, I actually wanted to experiment on the Flame Devils, summarizing and perfecting this technique."
Yan Zhaoge said, "Sadly, I didn't think that the attack of the Flame Devils this time would be so much stronger than I had expected. Therefore, I also took a risk."
They passed through the Earth Earth Peak, heading towards Broad Creed Mountain's main peak, the Heaven Rising Peak.
As they walked, Yan Zhaoge said, "If the technique becomes more and more perfected, its power growing stronger and stronger, with sufficient power to activate and maintain it, there might be a possibility of counterattacking the Flame Devil World."
"Even if we are unable to reach the heights of the Ice Emperor in the past, it is also fine. After all, the Flame Devil World also does not have a Flame Devil Emperor."
Hearing his words, Yuan Zhengfeng and Fu Enshu nodded slightly.
As Yan Zhaoge said this, he thought of that small crimson pagoda.
"If not for this thing, the Flame Devils might not have succeeded so easily ah," Yan Zhaoge's thoughts drifted.
As he thought about it, Yan Zhaoge's thoughts suddenly turned to Lin Zhou's dying words.
"From the looks of it, it didn't seem like he was bluffing. To the Eight Extremities World, is there a disaster that is even more severe than the invasion of the Flame Devils this time?" Yan Zhaoge raised his brows slightly, "What could it be?"
