Rebirth: City Sovereign

"Crash."    

Pang Baozong casually tossed the pile of documents that was already a small mountain to the side. He let out a long sigh, and his body deeply sank into the black sofa.    

He sat on his black leather chair and used his last bit of consciousness to force open his eyelids, which were constantly trembling. He fought against the tiredness that kept rising from his heart as his eyes became bloodshot.    

He had not slept or even rested for three days or more than 70 hours.    

Descending Island.    

Ever since that gigantic black island that was covered with black Magic Formation descended on the China, in the capital, over a month had passed since then. Pang Baozong hadn't been able to have a peaceful sleep.    

Ever since the first batch of China cultivators who entered the Descending Island in violation of the rules, and brought along countless treasures that they had never had before out of the Descending Island, the entire China … No, all the cultivators on earth were going crazy because of this unknown black island.    

With regards to this Descending Island of unknown origins, the rational Chinese Military Region would obviously choose to immediately seal off any news. But with such a great space shaking, how could the other nations not know of the existence of the Descending Island?    

Not only that, as time passed, rumors began to spread around the world that this black treasure island was a sacred object bestowed to Earth by the universe. The China s simply didn't have the qualifications to seal it, or take it for themselves.    

"Descending Island is a treasure bestowed by the heavens to the entire Earth. Any living being on Earth has the right to explore it."    

Under this kind of call that was full of inducement, a sect called the "Descent Sect" was quickly established on Earth, especially within the China, and spread out at an unprecedented speed.    

Although Pang Baozong and many other officers of the China suspected that this was a method used by other nations to investigate the inner workings of the Descending Island, even if it was really the case, they were already somewhat unable to control the situation.    

From the twentieth day after Descending Island, around two weeks ago, when the China was no longer able to control the armies of other nations, and also the scattered cultivators of Earth, they had finally entered the Descending Island.    

After all, in this kind of situation, the entire world would oppose the China. No matter how much the China objected, it would not stop everything that Greed caused.    

Countless countries from all over the world had led their armies and entered the Descending Island which was located at Mount Kunlun with high spirits. This had caused the entire capital to change from the center of the China to the hub of the entire world within a single day.    

Of course, this was not a good thing at all.    

The fact was, while more than twenty powerful countries had been involved, the entire system had been thrown into disarray.    

And this chaos, had reached an unprecedented height after something was excavated from the Descending Island.    

Pang Baozong opened his eyes and retrieved a document from within his robes. On the pure white paper, there was the image of a white flower.    

God Entering Fruit s, in Immortal Realm, Devil Realm, legends said that consuming these spirit flowers would allow one to directly reach the realm of Deity Cultivator, and in the world, this kind of legend related to ascension became a form of easier to understand.    

"Once I consume three or more Spirit Flowers, can my cultivation break through the limits of Earth …?"    

Pang Baozong opened his mouth slightly and said in a low voice that only he could hear.    

"What a bunch of idiots who swarm here just because they see something profitable …"    

In fact, when Ye Kai returned to the capital, a similar medicine had already spread through the entire China. But compared to this time, which was filled with fanaticism towards the God Entering Fruit, the incident that was caused by the True Saint Society was just like playing house when compared to the current situation.    

Right now, as the highest commander of the Hidden Dragon Base, not only did Pang Baozong have to deal with the twenty odd nations that had entered the China, he also had to deal with the growing number of Descending Devil Sects. At the same time, he also had to stop the itinerant cultivators from entering the island.    

Such a complicated matter had almost crushed Pang Baozong, he suddenly regretted not retiring when Loong Qingyun stepped down.    

"General Pang, are you still awake?"    

Pang Baozong opened his eyes wide. It was a young man with a head full of white hair, dressed in a black and white Longhu Mountain Sect Leader robe.    

The current Chinese Protector, said Zhang Fann with a wry smile as he helped Pang Baozong organize the scattered documents on the table.    

"Two days, three days? "How long has it been since I last slept? Let's go take a rest. If I don't get enough rest, it will affect my work efficiency."    

"I can't sleep …" There are still countless matters that have yet to be dealt with. " Pang Baozong took the document that Zhang Fann had just arranged and started to flip through it again.    

Seeing Pang Baozong trying to resist the urge to sleep, Zhang Fann's face became gloomy, he stood beside Pang Baozong and hesitated for a long time, but did not say anything.    

"If you have something to say, just say it. You're not here to help me organize the documents are you?" Pang Baozong saw through Zhang Fann's thoughts, forcing out a smile and asked.    

Hearing that, Zhang Fann took a deep breath, then slowly spoke out clearly.    

"Within the capital, there are already cultivators who consumed three God Entering Fruit."    

Pang Baozong was startled, his expression stunned for half a second, the hand holding the document unconsciously released.    

"Where is he?"    

"He escaped. Lu Qingshan was heavily injured, his lower abdomen pierced, and even one of his arms were removed. He was sent to the Central Hospital for rescue half an hour ago.    

"Heavenly Arts Martial Sect's other members and the Gu technique's Miao Family are currently split into three groups, and along the traces of spirit energy, we're searching for his location, but …"    

As Zhang Fann said till here, his face showed some hesitation, as Pang Baozong understood what he wanted to say.    

"Lu Qingshan..." While silently chanting the familiar name, Pang Baozong's frown deepened, and his ten fingers that were on his knee clenched into a fist.    

What was Lu Qingshan's identity? At the same time, his cultivation broke through the peak of the divine power, becoming the youngest Earth Immortal in this world with the exception of Zhang Fann. Simply speaking, in terms of cultivation, in the current China, the only one stronger than Lu Qingshan was only a half step away from becoming a Heavenly Immortal.    

But, even Lu Qingshan, who was the second strongest in China, was beaten to such a state?    

Cultivators at this level of strength were no longer something that could be matched with Earth's weapons. Only cultivators of the same level could fight against them.    

And from Zhang Fann's tone, it seemed that Lu Qingshan was completely helpless against the cultivator who had consumed the three God Entering Fruit.    

What was the use of finding someone at this level?    

There was no way to deal with it!    

Moreover, this was not the main point.    

"What about that cultivator's identity?" Pang Baozong asked again.    

"I've already found out. He's a handicapped member of Ghost Mastering Sect, named Liu An. And before he consumed the three God Entering Fruit s, his cultivation level …"    

"He doesn't even have Dispersing Strength!"    

When Zhang Fann finished speaking, he was immediately dumbfounded.    

"It means that the effect of the God Entering Fruit is really the same as what the rumors say."    

"Very likely." Zhang Fann's face became gloomy, and he nodded.    

Silence. A long silence.    

After a long sigh, Pang Baozong finally picked up the lighter and lit up a cigarette. Only the feeling of the nicotine in his lungs was able to bring him a bit of calmness.    

After exhaling the smoke ring, Pang Baozong looked calm and said resolutely.    

"We must capture all God Entering Fruit that are following this."    

"Understood, but there's one more thing."    

"Go ahead." Pang Baozong appeared calm and collected on the surface, as he replied simply. At the same time, he was silently making mental preparations in his heart.    

He could even take on such a serious piece of news. Next, no matter what Zhang Fann said, he, Pang Baozong, would not lose his composure!    

"Then that's what I said." Zhang Fann cleared his throat and then spoke out.    

"Rumor has it that a lone Chinese Youth has appeared within the Descending Island."    

"And his appearance, and Ye … Cough … White-Clothed Sword Immortal, is exactly the same! "    

"What did you say?"    

The hand that was holding onto the fire machine fiercely shook, the fire from the lighter almost burnt his eyebrows, Pang Baozong directly jumped up from his position and retorted loudly.
