Chapter 370 - Prepared for the Worst
There was no need to report the news of the "earthquake" in the Black Wind Canyon up the chain of command. It was directly summarized and sent to the seven Sages.
The Seven Sages took the news of the Black Wind Canyon very seriously. As long as there was any movement, the information had to be reported to the Seven Sages.
"An earthquake in the Black Wind Canyon?"
Sage Kang's expression changed abruptly. Without any hesitation, he stood up and took an airship to the League of Guardians Headquarters.
Sage Kang was not alone. The other six Sages behaved similarly. After receiving the news of the "earthquake" in the Black Wind Canyon, they all rushed to the League of Guardians Headquarters as quickly as possible.
…
In the League of Guardians, as a Sage, Lin Feng naturally received the news about the Black Wind Canyon immediately.
"Earthquake?"
A trace of emotion finally appeared on Lin Feng's calm face.
"Is it finally coming?"
Lin Feng closed his eyes slightly. His emotions became tense at this moment. Very few things could make Lin Feng nervous now. Without a doubt, any change in the Black Wind Canyon could affect Lin Feng's emotions.
At the same time, the other six Sages all sent messages that they would rush to the League of Guardians Headquarters.
About two hours later, at the League of Guardians Headquarters, the six Sages alighted from the airships with solemn expressions. The seven Sages all arrived at the conference hall of the League of Guardians.
"Sage Lin Feng, how is it going?"
As soon as the six Sages arrived at the League of Guardians Headquarters, they asked nervously.
"Everyone, please watch the video."
Hence, Lin Feng opened the video. It was a video on the Black Wind Canyon.
From the video, intense earthquakes had occurred within a radius of thousands of kilometers, with the Black Wind Canyon as the center. Moreover, the tremors were very strong.
This was definitely not an earthquake!
This was because the tremors became stronger and stronger. It lasted for two hours. No earthquake could behave like this, where tremors would become stronger and stronger while continuing for over two hours.
"Sage Lin Feng, has the Behemoth of Armageddon awakened?" Sage Kang asked in a low voice.
This might be the worst outcome.
Lin Feng closed his eyes and said softly, "We must be prepared for the worst!"
All the Sages' hearts skipped a beat. Being prepared for the worst likely meant facing the Behemoth of Armageddon. This was despite the fact that the human world had developed rapidly over the recent years, and humanity showed signs of dominating the world now.
There was no knowing how many demon emperors had been expelled and killed. The Outland was no longer the territory of the dire beasts. Humanity was rapidly expanding its territory.
However, the Sages still felt heavy-hearted, because the Behemoth of Armageddon was a terrifying behemoth that could destroy civilizations. Even Sage Lin Feng, humanity's only hope, had yet to undergo five life transitions. This made the Sages even more worried.
And now, their worry was about to become reality.
"In the name of the Seven Sages, gather 23 combat body martial artists with two life transitions immediately! Follow us to the Black Wind Canyon!"
Lin Feng gave the order. He was now the First Sage of humanity, and his prestige among humans was greater than even Sage Kang's. No one would disobey his orders.
However, if they wanted to mobilize 23 combat body martial artists with two life transitions, the seven Sages must give the order jointly.
The other six Sages also nodded without any hesitation. They knew that the moment of life-or-death had arrived. Hence, all of them ordered the combat body martial artists with two life transitions under their faction to gather at the League of Guardians Headquarters!
As the seven Sages gave the order jointly, it evoked a reaction in the entire human society, especially among martial artists.
Combat body martial artists was the uniform title Lin Feng used for martial artists who cultivated the combat body after disclosing its cultivation method. Although a few years had passed, there were still relatively few martial artists who could truly cultivate the combat body.
This was especially the case for combat body martial artists who had undergone two life transitions. Their combat power was close to that of Sages. Hence, the status of these combat body martial artists was also rather high, much higher than ordinary Meta-divine Realm martial artists.
Every martial artist with a second life transition was in a high position and held great authority. Most of them were at the frontline of the Outland, hunting down demon emperors.
"Emergency order?"
Some combat body martial artists did not know the reason, but the Sages had given the supreme order, so they could only obey it.
"Supreme order? Go to the League of Guardians Headquarters immediately?"
In reality, the 23 combat body martial artists who had undergone two life transitions did not quite understand this order. What could make the Sages so anxious?
Ever since they learned about the cultivation method of the combat body and became combat body martial artists, everything had basically been smooth-sailing. Even the once insufferable demon emperors were defeated under their combined attacks.
Although humanity had yet to occupy all the territories, no dire beast was a match for humanity anymore in the entire Outland. Given the general trend, they felt that it was only a matter of time before humanity occupied the Outland.
The seven high and mighty Sages had never been so anxious before. In particular, the fact that they were gathered at the League of Guardians Headquarters was even more intriguing. Could something have happened to Sage Lin Feng?
When the 23 combat body martial artists arrived, they all saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
There were only 23 combat body martial artists with two life transitions in the entire human race. Most of them actually knew each other. If so many combat body martial artists were summoned at once, the matter was probably very grave.
Swoosh.
Suddenly, seven Sages appeared, led by Sage Lin Feng. Faced with the authority of Sages, even these prodigious martial artists with two life transitions had to show respect.
"Everyone, board the airship and go to the Black Wind Canyon!"
"Black Wind Canyon?"
Lin Feng's words made all the combat body martial artists' expressions change slightly. Although they had never heard of the Behemoth of Armageddon, it did not stop them from analyzing the uniqueness of the Black Wind Canyon from some clues.
Among the Four Forbidden Places, only the Black Wind Canyon and the Dead Sea of Abyss forbade combat body martial artists from entering lightly.
In particular, many martial artists were specially sent to monitor the Black Wind Canyon in real time. It seemed like there was some terrifying existence in the Black Wind Canyon.
Although they were filled with doubts, they did not dare to ask questions now. They could only follow the seven Sages into a large airship.
The large airship quickly took off and left the League of Guardians Headquarters.
In the airship, Lin Feng looked at these young martial artists and said calmly, "You can contact your families now. Treat it as a farewell. No one can guarantee that you can return alive!"
Boom.
Lin Feng's words immediately caused an uproar in the airship.
The young combat body martial artists all wanted to know why.
Lin Feng did not say anything else. Sage Kang and the others would naturally explain the matter. He looked out the window. This time, he did not bid farewell to Qu Chen.
Perhaps he could not bear to, or perhaps he was not confident at all.
The Behemoth of Armageddon weighed heavily on Lin Feng's heart like a huge rock. Now, no matter how unwilling he was, he had to face it.
The airship disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye. Perhaps the members of the League of Guardians had not sensed anything yet.
Qu Chen, however, stood outside the door and looked at the disappearing airship. Silent tears were already streaming down her face…
