A few months later.
Eastern Alliance, Starry District.
Inside a heavily-guarded military base.
A crimson alarm sounded. "A wormhole has been detected!"
A large number of military personnel reacted quickly. An emergency command center was activated.
"A Spirit Realm has been detected!"
"Coordinates confirmed … it's … downtown Starry District!"
An observer's voice trembled as he quickly pulled up the surveillance footage. "This wormhole has occurred in the Jiahe Gardens residential district of the Starry District!"
On the screen, a thin layer of mist appeared out of nowhere. It slowly spread, and there seemed to be an inexplicable and ferocious shadow looming within it.
Within the residential district of the Jiahe Gardens, the common folk had not yet realized what was happening. They continued their tiring but beautiful lives.
The commander's expression was solemn as he said in a deep voice, "Seal off the area immediately and proceed according to Plan No. 1 … Contact the Martialist Association and prepare to send in the martialists to 'exorcise' the demon … Call in the candidates for the assessment as well. Let them participate in the evacuation operation to minimize casualties."
Orders were passed down in an orderly fashion.
The entire base was in full swing.
…
Yin Mountain.
"Emergency assembly? Is it about to begin? "
Chung Shen-soo watched the military helicopter in the sky, as well as the anxious faces of Bai Yu and the others. He walked over in silence.
The timing of this outbreak was far earlier than he'd anticipated.
"Fortunately, I managed to collect another strand of Whitebone Baleful Aura. I'll be able to master the Three Yin Bone-Searching Claws along the way. One for offense, one for defense. That should be enough."
High up in the sky, Chung Shen-soo closed his eyes and thought indifferently.
Beside him, Bai Yu handed him a top secret file. "This time the Spirit Realm has appeared in the Starry District, Jiahe Gardens."
"A residential district?!" Chung Shen-soo was surprised.
In the past, wormholes had mostly occurred in the wilderness, or at most in nearby villages or towns. They were relatively weak and didn't cause much panic.
This time, however, it had erupted in a large residential district. If they weren't careful, the number of casualties would be high.
"There have been cases like this before, but rarely. This time, the Martialist Association's assessment is focused on rescue. You'll be in charge of evacuating the civilians. The Skyfiends will be dealt with by the official martialists."
Bai Yu's voice was solemn.
"Understood."
Chung Shen-soo closed his eyes and grasped the opportunity to practice the Three Yin Bone-Searching Claw Technique. After mastering this technique, he could control up to nine large white bone claws to attack people from mid-air. Moreover, the claws contained a sinister power. Ordinary Xiantian experts would die if they came into contact with it. Even cultivators and magic tools of the same level would be corroded.
If he were to use it to fight a Pugilist, he would probably be able to kill a child with one claw.
When Chung Shen-soo opened his eyes again, he found that the helicopter had arrived at a temporary base. There were tents that had just been set up everywhere.
Not far away, a mist appeared, shrouding a small district. The surroundings were hazy, as if it had been divided into two worlds.
"The Spiritual Realm has stopped expanding."
"The first batch of martial artists has arrived. Prepare to enter!"
Voices could be heard from the broadcast from time to time.
Chung Shen-soo followed the instructions and entered a tent. He changed his clothes and listened to the news at the same time.
"This martial arts suit is specially made by us after careful research. It's not affected by the Spiritual Realm and is made of the best materials."
Bai Yu fetched a martial arts suit. "This time, your mission is to rescue people. You'll have to deal with the Skyfiends when you run into them. It's very dangerous. You must be careful. Please follow me. "
Chung Shen-soo followed her. They passed many checkpoints and approached the edge of the mist.
There was already a group of quasi-martialists waiting there.
As a fellow martial artist, the feeling was very strong. Chung Shen-soo glanced over and found that there were about twenty of them. Every one of them was brimming with energy. They were all experts.
Seeing Chung Shen-soo coming over, he immediately attracted a lot of attention.
"Hello, bro. I'm Guo Shi from the Flying Star District. I practice Rolling Stone Force. What about you?"
A young man in his thirties with a square face approached him and asked in a low voice.
"Hua Wu, Star District."
Chung Shen-soo nodded. "Are there only twenty of us?"
"The official martialists have already entered and are hunting on their own. There are more prospective martialists, but few of them are brave enough to fight."
Guo Shi heaved a sigh and replied.
"I'm here to fulfill a wish. Why are you here?" Chung Shen-soo asked curiously.
"Heroes serve their country and their people. There are devils here, and I happen to be capable enough. How can I not come?" Guo Shi replied solemnly.
"I'm impressed." Chung Shen-soo was immediately filled with respect.
Right then, a group of people walked over and silenced all the whispers.
"The Dagger Squad has entered. Your mission is to rescue people! The prospective martialists of the Martialist Association will lead the team, and the elite squads that the Association has trained will be your support. You must try your best to save people. "
A man who looked like a commander shouted, "The number of people rescued will be the benchmark for the assessment. Let's go!"
Chung Shen-soo looked around. There were eleven people assigned to him. All of them were muscular and had a special temperament.
"Mr. Hua, this time, the area assigned to us is from Block A to Block C. There are a total of fifteen buildings. My name is Wang Jiangang! "
Among them, the leader bowed to Chung Shen-soo. "I've practiced Golden Bell Shield, but I haven't learned Vitality yet."
"Okay, let's go!"
Seeing that some of the squads had entered the fog, Chung Shen-soo nodded.
He couldn't be bothered to observe the other prospective martialists, so he walked into the fog.
Whoosh!
As soon as he stepped into the fog, he felt as if he had been electrocuted.
The scenery around him was a little hazy, and it seemed unreal.
Chung Shen-soo looked at his custom-made clothes that hadn't changed much. Suddenly, he took out a bunch of keys that he had deliberately brought in.
The keys decayed quickly, and with a gentle breeze, they fell to the ground as if they were made of sand.
"Forbidden technology … It's very likely that the rules of another world have invaded and changed some of the physical parameters here?"
Chung Shen-soo muttered to himself and asked Wang Jiangang behind him to bring the map. "Let's go."
…
Jiahe Garden District.
The originally quiet area seemed to have turned into a purgatory.
There were bloodstains everywhere, and broken human limbs and remains were casually discarded. Some tall demonic figures were walking around as if they were hunting.
They were more than two meters tall, covered in scales, and had a black horn on their heads. They were the most common type of demonic horned demons.
At this moment, a horned demon twitched its nose as if it had smelled the scent of humans. It turned into a small supermarket and saw a mother and son hiding behind the cashier, trembling.
It raised its palm, ready to taste blood.
Bang!
A wall suddenly shattered, and a figure flew out, kicking continuously. "Twelve Chain Kicks Tan Zheng, protect the country, kill!!!"
The steel-like leg whip landed on the right side of the cornea. A move that could kill ordinary people directly only kicked the horned demon. It seemed to be a little dizzy and was struggling to get up.
"Let's go."
The figure shouted and fought with the horned demon.
This kind of battle happened one after another in the district …
