Eight Ancient Continents, Eight Ancient Lands.
In the middle of a mountain, a teleportation array appeared on one side of the mountain. Thirty-two people walked out. Before entering the teleportation array, they were still discussing non-stop. But after arriving, they became extremely silent.
No matter how strong they were or how famous they were outside, once they arrived, they would feel an invisible pressure that made them extremely cautious and respectful. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Thirty-two people flew in the air and quickly arrived at the top of another mountain. Each of the eight mountains had a different teleportation array. The teleportation array in front of them was the one that led to the Gao Clan.
The teleportation array was right in front of them, but the thirty-two people seemed to be frozen. They looked at each other, but no one dared to take the first step.
Everyone was in a deadlock. Finally, after a few breaths, the few people in front stepped in and disappeared in front of everyone. Since everyone was already here, if they didn't enter, they would definitely become the sect's public enemy. Therefore, they braced themselves and walked forward.
Whoosh —
After all thirty-two people had entered, the teleportation array disappeared and the Eight Ancient Lands became incomparably silent again.

Hachiko clan, Gao Clan's territory.
Every clan's territory was extremely vast and had its own unique characteristics. The Fu Clan was located along the coast. The miraculous scenery of the sea was like an illusion. The Chu Clan's towering volcano was like the end of the world. The terrifying temperature was terrifying. As the Gao Clan had the ultimate earth attribute, the uniqueness of their territory was naturally related to the earth attribute.
This was a vast expanse of land, and there were countless huge statues erected on the ground.
The top of the statues reached into the clouds and the end couldn't be seen. The length and diameter of each statue was at least two thousand feet. These statues didn't imitate anything. They weren't statues of gods or strange beasts. They were pure pillars. However, each pillar was carved with complicated patterns, like pillars that supported the heavens.
Not only that, although each statue was of the earth attribute, the materials used were very different. Some were rocks, some were hard soil, and some were even sand. The earth attribute here was extremely complicated, but the similarity was that all of them were black.
In the middle of all these statues, there was a vast piece of flat land with a diameter of about a hundred miles. This was the place where the Gao Clan lived. The buildings here were extremely huge and looked very grand.
Outside the central plain, a teleportation array suddenly opened up among the statues. Following that, 32 people walked out from it. This was the first time most of them had come to the Gao Clan's territory. The moment they arrived, all the Heavenly Masters took a deep breath!
What a rich earth attribute aura!
With such a rich and pure earth attribute, any resource territory would be worlds apart from it. If he could cultivate here, it would definitely be beneficial to his strength!
There were many earth-type Heavenly Masters present, such as the Deputy Sect Master of the Great Land Sect. One had to know that for a Level Nine Heavenly Master, even the best resource territory would have little effect, but here, he actually felt that his solidified strength was actually loosening.
However, they weren't here to sightsee and admire the scenery. No matter how comfortable their bodies were, everyone's expressions were extremely tense, and they didn't feel relieved in the slightest. Everyone stood there, not daring to move, waiting for the guide to arrive.
Sure enough, after a few breaths, a figure flew over. It was a person who was only at Level Eight. Even so, the people of the Sect Alliance were respectful and bowed respectfully.
This person looked at the 32 people in front of him. Without waiting for the people of the Sect Alliance to speak, he quickly said, "What are you doing here?"
There was no respect for a Level Eight Heavenly Master towards a Level Nine Heavenly Master in his words, but these people weren't angry at all. Instead, they were even more panicked after being scolded. After looking at each other, Chen Kuang took the initiative to speak and said respectfully, "Now that the strange beasts in the sea have invaded the continent, we are unable to deal with them. Countless people have died in the world, so we are here to visit the Gao Clan."
Hearing this, this person frowned and said, "We no longer care about the continent's matters."
"This …"
The people of the Sect Alliance looked at each other, not knowing what to say or whether they should immediately turn around and leave. However, just as they were in a deadlock, the person in front of them spoke again and said, "You all wait here, I will go and report."
With that, this person quickly disappeared before everyone's eyes. Seeing this person leave, these Level Nine Heavenly Masters actually heaved a sigh of relief. There was nothing they could do. Even a Level Seven Heavenly Master from the Hachiko clan was a respected figure to them. It was just like how a mediocre sect on the continent was in front of them.
They didn't have to wait long and this person soon returned. Everyone's bodies immediately tensed up as they waited nervously for an answer.
"The clan head doesn't have time to see you," this person said, "but the young master is free. Follow me."
Hearing this, everyone was delighted. They were all very smart. If this person didn't bring back a reprimand, it meant that the Gao clan didn't blame them! No matter what, their lives were saved. It didn't matter even if they returned empty-handed.
Everyone followed this person closely and left the group of statues that reached the sky. They quickly entered the central plain on the ground. Along the way, many members of the Gao clan turned to look at them. Not only were there people who could see them, but there were also countless powerful auras that enveloped their senses. Each aura was enough to make everyone's hearts tremble. There was an obvious difference in strength.
It was obvious that their arrival was noticed by many members of the Gao clan. For some reason, under these gazes and auras, they were sneaking around like thieves. They couldn't even raise their heads. They were led all the way to a tall building.
This person led them to fly directly to the top floor of the building. They pushed open the door and entered the building. Soon, they arrived at a huge guest room.
In the huge room, there was already a person sitting at the head of the table. It was none other than the young master of the Gao clan, Gao Zhanxing.
Among the 32 people of the sect, a few of them had seen Gao Zhanxing before. Naturally, they recognized him. However, that was many years ago. Back then, Gao Zhanxing's strength wasn't very high. Now, everyone could clearly feel that Gao Zhanxing was already in the ninth level!
Gao Zhanxing didn't need to hide his aura from anyone. He saw these people arrive. There were many seats, but he didn't ask them to sit down.
Since Gao Zhanxing didn't say anything, no one dared to sit down. They all bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, young master of the Gao clan!"
Gao Zhanxing didn't respond immediately. Instead, his gaze fell on one of them.
"Miss Liu, we meet again," Gao Zhanxing said. "No, I should call you Mrs. Lu now, right?"
Everyone was shocked. Liu Yi didn't expect Gao Zhanxing to speak to her first. Unlike the people of the other sects, Liu Yi didn't bow. Her tone was very calm. She looked at Gao Zhanxing and said, "Yes, long time no see."
In fact, the two of them had only met once. That was when Fu Yu and Gao Zhanxing appeared together at the Apothecary Conference. It had been three years since then. However … to be honest, Liu Yi was still a little nervous when facing Gao Zhanxing. After all, Gao Zhanxing loved Fu Yu and they were together before. However, Fu Yu was Lu An's wife now. She was also Lu An's wife. It was inevitable that Gao Zhanxing would take his anger out on her.
However, Liu Yi had indeed underestimated Gao Zhanxing's tolerance this time. Gao Zhanxing didn't show any signs of anger. Instead, he raised his hand and said, "Mrs. Lu, please take a seat."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. There were so many people, but only Liu Yi was allowed to sit down. This was enough to show the differential treatment of the young master of the Gao clan!
Liu Yi also didn't expect this, but she didn't refuse. She said, "Thank you, Young Master, for giving me a seat."
Liu Yi walked to the side and sat down. She formed a sharp contrast with the 31 people who were still standing. It made people feel the difference in status. However, Gao Zhanxing's expression was very calm. He looked at everyone and went straight to the point. "I know that the strange beasts in the sea are invading. What do you want to say?"
"…"
Everyone looked at each other and lowered their heads. They didn't dare to speak. Finally, after a few breaths, Chen Kuang spoke again. He cupped his hands and said, "I'm ashamed to say that after joining forces, we couldn't stop the strange beasts from invading. The world is in trouble. Therefore, we want to ask … the Hachiko clan to help."
