The Dragon God of Destruction
Four Small Lands
Lin Clan
The faces of the Clan and Sect leaders who had fought in the Lin Clan were extremely ugly when they heard what Lin Ming said. However, when they looked back at the Otherworldly Gate, they understood why Lin Ming had given the order to retreat.
The number of demons that came was too many, too many for them to fight. Only relying on numbers, it was certain that only the leaders would be able to escape from the place. After all, not all the troops of the Saint Continent had gathered, even for the members of the Dragon Clan had yet to come, only the Elders were in the place.
The Demon Princes heard Lin Ming's orders with astonished faces. But they grinned as they felt that if the human army retreated, then all the demon armies would be able to set foot on the Saint Continent. According to them, this is an absolute advantage.
Leaders think about it too. However, they preferred to save all their troops because they could still devise a plan against the demons. The demons would not be too aware of the important places in the Saint Continent that could be used for the base of the troops and residents of the Saint Continent.
Wussh!
All the troops immediately withdrew. They all looked a little embarrassed for escaping from the battlefield. But they could not argue because their leaders must have their own thoughts.
“Don't chase them!” All the Demon Luminaries gave orders to their respective armies.
“It seems to be our luck that they retreat. I also tracked down the cultivators of the Eternal Realm. If many of our troops are to fall here, then our chance to wipe out all the humans and cultivators of the Saint Continent will be lost.” Bai Yi said cheerfully as he slowly floated up near Jin Gu.
“Command your troops to be careful and track where they all build the base. We do not need to go to the Xiao Clan because the Copper Mirror has been brought by someone.” Jin Gu said.
“He won't be able to leave. We can trace the Copper Mirror anywhere except within the Xiao Clan. I also felt that he was strong enough. But..” Bai Yi who was initially smiling, put on a dark face and looked towards a certain place.
Even Jin Gu and the other Demon Princes immediately put on grim faces.
“We will go investigate!” The two Demon Princes volunteered. The reason they all put on dark faces, was because their connection with the originally faint Copper Mirror vanished completely.
Jin Gu looked towards the two Demon Princes. One of them was the strongest other than himself and the other one was the weakest. He gave a small nod of feeling that if the two of them worked together, the two would not die against one cultivator even if the cultivator was very strong.
Bai Yi and the other Demon Princes also agreed if the two Demon Princes left together. If it was just one, he would definitely be in danger. They had tracked down that there were three four strong cultivators on par with Lin Ming. The four of them were certainly Lin Xi and the other three Ancient Clan Old Ancestors.
But the Demon Princes were not afraid because the three of them were still stronger than Lin Ming. Only someone holding the Copper Mirror was making them wary at this moment. If it was only as level as Lin Ming, with the help of many Demon Generals who were strong enough, they would definitely be able to kill someone like Lin Ming easily even if there was a price to pay.
The two Demon Princes with their respective Demon Generals immediately flew towards the last time they tracked down the Copper Mirror. The two were also quite curious as to who exactly was holding the Copper Mirror because its aura was extremely strong, stronger than Jin Gu even though they had yet to meet in person.

For the army of cultivators from the Saint Continent, they moved in a certain direction but split into three groups. Before the war, they had discussed the worst possibility that they would lose when the demons arrived. And if that prediction comes true, then they will go to three different places, each troop has been set where they will go.
Lin Ming who was flying along with Lin Xi, put on an extremely grim face at all times.
“I did not expect that the number of demons would reach this number. Continent Saint in danger!” said Lin Ming. His face looked very lethargic at the moment.
“Don't think about it for now. We better go to the Dragon Clan first. The location where we are silent must pass through that place. After that, we will gather all the troops from the Snow Palace, use the teleportation gate for all the humans who are unlikely to follow the war to the Northern Mainland!” said Lin Xi.
“Yes. This is the best! To reach the Northern Mainland, it was extremely difficult because the sea of fog, aside from that, the fog prevented perception! The other two forces will go to the Southern Mainland and the Eastern Mainland. For the Western Mainland, it had been completely destroyed a few years ago from the information provided by Lin Huang.” Said Lin Ming. He did not expect that they should retreat to the Northern Mainland, the most remote place, as did the Eastern and Southern Mainlands.
The Saint Continent was indeed flanked by four small Lands, the place was very hidden, if it wanted to go there, they had to go through a special route that had been created, and only the rulers knew about it. The same goes for the South and East. But one of the small hidden Lands has been devastated by the climate.
And another way of going to the small Mainland is to use certain teleportation gates provided in some places.
The main goal of cultivators at the moment was to evacuate as many humans as possible to the three small Lands in order for the humans not to become extinct, even the demons would definitely need time to reach the place if they did not know the route.
In addition, many sea creatures are extraordinarily ferocious in these waters. Even for peak cultivators of the Sage Realm to be careful of them. And all of those sea spirit beasts were referred to as Sea Kings.

On the other hand, Jie Yan who had recovered his strength slowly stood up. He frowned when he sensed that in the direction the Lin Clan was located, there were no more cultivators. Many of them were scattered, and he was able to vaguely trace that the cultivators formed three groups.
“Did they lose?” Jie Yan's face was a little grim. He instantly predicted that when all the cultivators retreated.
“Hopefully nothing happened to grandma and grandpa.” Inner Jie Yan as he took a deep breath. He was currently feeling doubtful whether he should go to the Lin Clan to take a look or go in one of the directions that the three groups formed by cultivators when retreating.
“Jie Yan, are we going there?” Xia Yue'er looked not too excited. He could feel Jie Yan's current anxiety so he didn't want to play anymore knowing that the condition of the Saint Continent was in crisis.
Jie Yan took a deep breath then gazed towards the direction where Xiao Chen had gone. He was also able to track that there were two extremely powerful auras moving towards Xiao Chen whose aura had suddenly vanished.
“We will go there!” Jie Yan made up his mind and directly made a teleportation hole. He slowly walked into the teleportation hole along with Xia Yue'er who was on his shoulders.
Zhep!
The teleportation hole closed instantly. Jie Yan did not know that the direction he was heading towards was a very dangerous place.

Western Mainland
The place that used to be called the Western Mainland is no longer occupied by humans due to natural disasters caused by certain existences. The tiny landmass has been torn apart, becoming small islands measuring less than 1km square.
Bodies are still visible everywhere. And many sea beasts roamed the surface of the water, devouring the many corpses that were there.
Busssh!
The explosion of water like a mushroom cloud was seen when one Sea King figure jumped into the air, if Jie Yan was there, he would instantly recognize the spirit star as he had once killed one of them. However, the size was very much different and the aura of intimidation emitted was terrifying.
“Groooo..” Another voice echoed as the heads of the other Sea Kings came out from the water, the figure had an octopus-like shape but its size was monstrous.
The two spirit beasts then put on a fight that made many tsunamis explode in all directions. Aside from that, many other sea spirit beasts were roaming around and many were watching because they felt interested.
If recalculated, the number of sea beasts in that place holding the name of the Sea King had amounts reaching dozens, all of them were extremely powerful as the qi they possessed felt extremely large.
On one of the small islands, there was a young man who had wings on his back, he was none other than Xiao Chen. His destination was the Western Mainland, when he arrived, he also did not expect that the place had been destroyed.
“Fucking sea spirit beast! Did they create a natural disaster with their fight all which resulted in the loss of the Western Mainland?” Xiao Chen was furious and wanted to kill the Sea King. But he hesitated a little because one of the Sea Kings had the same strength as Lin Ming. If they all cooperate, then he will die at sea.
Although it was said that he had once held an era in his hands, Xiao Chen did not try the guts test to challenge the ocean. The ocean is still a very mysterious place because the number of sea creatures that are stronger than humans is far more. This is also because the world has a composition consisting of 30% land and 70% oceans.
