But upon careful consideration, it seemed there were no other options now.

Compared to the losses caused by the exposure of the plan, it was not a big deal to pay some price to destroy this mystic realm.

Only by destroying this mystic realm, and letting it perish in the void together with these humans, ocean pixies, and feathered people who know their secrets, could the plan remain undisclosed!

Many demon lords and leaders stood up together, bowing their heads and speaking respectfully, “Yes!”

Seeing the corrupted creatures being completely driven off the floating mountain, the situation was settled. Augustus and Elwin were overjoyed. “Great, we’ve finally driven these ghosts away. Just a moment ago, they almost broke through and attacked the civilian refuge on the floating mountain.”

When that semi-demonic, semi-human creature capable of spatial jumps restrained the heroes of the Ocean Crown, it was also the most perilous moment of this war. The corrupted creatures were on the verge of breaking into the civilian refuge on the floating mountain.

However, at that crucial moment, Lord Ji Chen made a swift and bold move. He handled the situation so effectively that it seemed like he had entered a domain where no one could challenge him. He even managed to sow discord among the enemy ranks, which ultimately set the stage for our victory in the battle.

What an incredibly powerful force!

Augustus and Elwin approached Ji Chen, exchanged a glance, and with the utmost respect, they saluted, “Lord Ji Chen, thank you for everything you’ve done. We will always remember your kindness.”

Ji Chen replied calmly, “I did what I could. Without the help of many ocean pixies and feathered warriors, it would have been difficult to defend the Ocean Crown.”

To be honest, without the feathered warriors to deal with the flying corrupted creatures and the magical projectile firepower of the ocean pixies against the flying corrupted creatures, it would have been quite challenging to repel the corrupted creatures.

Augustus and Elwin, hearing Ji Chen’s modesty and acknowledging their contributions, couldn’t help but admire him.

It wasn’t just admiration for his immense power but also for his noble character.

“Lord Augustus, Lord Elwin, please organize our people for evacuation as quickly as possible. I will make the Kraken tear open a spatial rift and take us out of this secret realm directly.”

“Please make it as fast as possible, and be lightly equipped. Ideally, we should be ready within half an hour.”

Augustus and Elwin were slightly surprised, “So urgent?”

Ji Chen said in a solemn tone, “I have a bad feeling that the demons may have further actions.”

Both of them sensed the gravity in his words and nodded immediately, “Alright, we will prepare right away.”

To be honest, they were somewhat afraid of the demons’ methods. First, it was the flying corrupted creatures, followed by the terrifying half-human, half-demonic creatures, and who knows what other horrors the demons might unleash in the future.

It was better to leave early.

Watching Augustus and Elwin hastily depart, Ji Chen glanced at the still gloomy sky. He noticed that the thunder serpents bursting from within the dark clouds had become more frequent, forming a web-like pattern across the sky.

In this windless and rainless environment, the frequent lightning bursts felt oppressive.

Lainekel jumped back from below the floating mountain through spatial jumping, reluctantly returning the Sword of Warlords that remained unblemished to Ji Chen. “Here, take back your sword.”

Ji Chen smiled and accepted it, casually placing it in his backpack. “After all, I destroyed your dual sword earlier. When we return to the main world, I’ll compensate you with a good sword.”

The reluctance on Lainekel’s face faded as he saw Ji Chen’s calm response. He felt somewhat embarrassed and said, “No need, it wasn’t your fault in the first place. If I have the chance, I’ll find a replacement myself.

A swordsman’s sword is second only to life itself. How can I let someone else find a replacement for it?”

“In that case, I won’t insist. By the way, Sir Lainekel, do you know if the demons have any other tricks in this mystic realm?”

Lainekel thought for a moment and pondered, “As far as I know, they shouldn’t have any more. Balzarna, in order to avoid triggering the world’s rejection, only released a limited amount of demonic pollution into the ocean and corrupted those creatures. Apart from me, there shouldn’t be any other high-level combatants.”

Even Lainekel, who was previously completely trusted by Balzarna, didn’t know, so it should be secure!

Ji Chen nodded in reassurance. That made things easier. They just had to wait for Augustus and Elwin to organize their people for evacuation, and then they could leave this place.

But at that moment, the Kraken suddenly emitted an urgent cry.

“Squawk!!! (Master, the spatial structure of this mystic realm has suddenly been attacked by some external force, leading to widespread collapse. It will soon plummet into the void and be annihilated completely!)”

Ji Chen’s expression changed drastically.

Damn it, a more dire outcome arrived far too soon!
