Di Lintian had been slumbering and lying in wait for years, rarely intervening in worldly affairs. Suddenly encountering this descendant of an old friend, Ye Chen, who was such an oddball, he expressed a keen interest in stirring up some mischief.

"..."

Seeing Ye Chen looking like a grade schooler giving a report, the Japanese Martial Artist and several others from Miaojiang turned ashen.

Ye Chen was tattling!

"It's them!" Ye Chen pointed at several Immortals. "That Japanese Martial Artist, and that man in the black robe, and that woman with a staff, the War God!"

"This is a demon-subduing staff, not a stick!" The War God really wanted to bash Ye Chen's head in with it.

"Your demon-subduing staff is my family treasure. Before, I didn't dare to scold you for forcibly taking it, but now that my ancestor Di has appeared, you better return my family's treasure quickly, or I'll let the old ancestor slap you to death!" Ye Chen glared at the War God.

Previously, the War God had nearly smashed him into oblivion with a single blow; now that Ye Chen had Di Lintian backing him up, he was putting her in an embarrassing position.

"And you!" Ye Chen pointed to the Japanese Martial Artist. "That knife of yours is also my family's, right? However, I will gift you that knife as a dowry promiss to marry Naimei Xue!"

"Don't get cocky!" The Japanese Martial Artist was fuming.

"And that black-robed Grandmaster, you also took quite a few things from my house, didn't you?" Ye Chen looked at the Miaojiang Grandmaster. "I don't mind that you took them, but when you leave, you must leave your disciple behind!"

"Scoundrel!" The Miaojiang Grandmaster was livid.

"And you lot, everyone holding a sack of treasures, hand them all over!"

After addressing the Immortals, Ye Chen then turned to the stunned warriors and shouted.

"..."

As Ye Chen spoke, the gathered warriors were struck as if by thunder. They had been enjoying the show, not expecting to be caught in the crossfire; Ye Chen had turned his accusations towards them.

However, these powerful figures dared not criticize Ye Chen openly. This man was incredibly strong, carelessly casting divine symbols, and what was worst, he had ancestral protection.

"Grand Ancestor, it's them who bullied me and stole our family treasures. I want them all returned. That's fair, right?" Ye Chen pleaded pitifully to Di Lintian.

"..." Ye Chen's performance caused a slight stiffness on Di Lintian's face.

Even though Di Lintian was an invincible presence dominating all realms, facing Ye Chen's pitiful act and whining was somewhat overwhelming for him.

"Ye Chen, come here, let me check your lineage!" said Di Lintian.

"What for?" Ye Chen was highly wary.

"Ye Tianshi always keeps a low profile, couldn't agitate dust if he tried, and you are nothing like him!" Di Lintian said, "Let me see your lineage; I might have mistaken your identity!"

"..." Ye Chen instantly felt awkward.

"You step back, I have some things to explain." Finally, Di Lintian asked Ye Chen to step aside, indicating he was about to start his lecture.

"Grand Ancestor, I want to keep a pet. Can you give me that snake?" Ye Chen didn't want to leave just yet and looked at the Lishan Demon Dragon beneath Di Lintian's feet.

"Roar!" The Lishan Demon Dragon roared in anger; it was a noble flood dragon, just a step away from becoming a true dragon. Ye Chen calling it a snake was a colossal insult.

"No, if you want a pet, I still want to eat snake meat!" said Di Lintian.

The body of the Lishan Demon Dragon quivered. This grandfather-grandson duo was more terrifying than the other.

Eventually, Di Lintian sat high on a stone platform, looking down at many Grandmasters as if he was formulating what massive revelations to make.

"A great calamity is about to descend on this land, and you Grandmasters are the ones to face it head-on!"

The words of Di Lintian echoed like a clap of spring thunder, leaving the group of Grandmasters somewhat dazed.

"Indeed!" Yun Zheyue's gaze sharpened, recognizing the extraordinary nature of the matter.

"The world is about to descend into chaos again!" declared the Western War Goddess, her face grave.

"I've had a premonition for a long time. In fact, every few hundred years, the world undergoes major turmoil!"

"That feeling coming from the netherworld is real!"

"Di Lintian is a Saintly Great Power, and his warning suggests that this is not a good omen!"

This world faced an impending catastrophe that not only alerted the Land Gods but also caused the figures of the Nine Dragons, the Ten Dragons Taboo, and some powerful Grandmasters on the Qingyun List to sense the shock.

After a golden age, chaos invariably follows, an eternal truth of the Heavenly Dao cycle that all the heroes could perceive.

What is called "extremes must reverse" is exactly this.

However, natural disasters follow the trajectory of the Heavenly Dao. Di Lintian, being a Saintly Great Power, would surely understand this. So why did he speak out to alert the heroes?

"Calamities often plague this world, but the nature of this imminent disaster is unlike any before," said Di Lintian. "In the past, even if great turmoil occurred, as long as the Land Gods intervened, it could be quickly quelled, and no harm would come to the people."

"But this time, the calamity is extraordinarily dire. Land Gods can only save themselves while many Grandmasters will perish, and Martial Masters will die or get hurt in great numbers!" Di Lintian sighed lightly.

"Powerful Martial Artists are the Guardian Gods of this world. If all the Martial Arts masters perish, then the world would collapse, and billions of lives would be obliterated!"

"It's that serious!"

The words of Di Lintian caused an uproar among the heroes. Even the Land Gods changed their expressions. This was not just a calamity—it was the apocalypse!

About the disasters affecting the land, the heroes were somewhat aware.

The concepts of chaos were broad, ranging from the rise of a wicked man to the occurrence of enormous natural disasters.

However, whether it was one kind or the other, if a group of Grandmasters came to the rescue or Land Gods intervened, it could be quickly pacified.

The strongest calamity in history happened eight hundred years ago when a fox demon which had cultivated to achieve the Immortal Realm caused chaos.

This fox demon was on the level of a Land God, mastered the Enchantment Skill, and incited the demons of the world to revolt in an attempt to overthrow human dominance. Even the Land Gods could not suppress it!

In the end, the fox demon led a legion of demons, awaking an invincible being.

This invincible being was in deep slumber, but awakened by the fox demon, it struck out with a single palm. The fox demon of the Immortal Realm was not just brutally killed, but even the throng of demons was annihilated!

This marked the end of history's strongest calamity.

Yet, the calamity talked about by Di Lintian seemed to be a thousand times more terrifying than the chaos caused by the fox demon!

Land Gods could only save themselves, Grandmasters fell in groups, and Martial Arts masters died in droves. Where was this merely a calamity? it was undoubtedly the end of the world!

"You are a Saintly Great Power. Won't you take action when disaster strikes?"

Di Lintian, a Saintly Great Power, was a tall and invincible existence. Bullying Land Gods was like beating up a schoolchild. With such a person intervening, what chaos could not be settled?

"Of course I will act, but I alone can't handle it," Di Lintian said earnestly. "Ye Chen's ancestor is also an existence of my level. He will also emerge to suppress the chaos, but even that won't be enough!"

"In fact, there are more than five Saintly Great Powers in this world, even more!"

"All these powers will manifest to suppress the chaos during the great turmoil of this world. Nevertheless, even that will not be enough!" Di Lintian's voice was somewhat subdued.
