Chapter 2832 The Impatient Great God
Most notably, a heavy thud came from underground. It was the Earth Dragon Child trying to rise up to attack the Heavenly Demon, but being blocked—Tong Ming Zhenjun's gravity field instantly made the sandy ground hard and solid, as if it had been run over by a road roller, especially hardened.
The earth's crust was so hard that even the earthworms couldn't break through it in a short time. After a few more breaths, even the sound of impact stopped, because the earthworms had all been solidified in the hardened sand.
"Let's go."
Tong Mingzhenjun walked forward without looking back.
Flying is forbidden in this secret realm, but his domain still makes everyone's weight as light as a feather. Therefore, leaving the ground is not a big problem. Furthermore, the Heavenly Demon can summon a strong wind by casting a wind-sending spell, propelling everyone forward at high speed.
After walking a little further, Tongming Zhenjun felt more and more that something was wrong with the place.
"I'm afraid this isn't the Panlong Secret Realm." He exhaled. "We've fallen into an enemy trap. Let's find the exit as soon as possible."
The subordinates all replied, "Yes."

Panlong Secret Realm, beneath the South Gate.
Several more giant ratwolves invaded the base of the city wall, but before they could reach the city gate, they were blocked by the black dragon stone sculpture.
These oversized beetles are different from before. They no longer roll down from their high nests to accumulate kinetic energy. Instead, they have wings, fly to the foot of the city wall, grow larger, and then self-destruct.
Therefore, the area beneath the south gate was filled with the sounds of cannon fire and unusual noise. The individual power of these self-propelled bombs might be limited, but the combined effect of their explosions was different; they even temporarily cleared a space for the army of demon-devouring vines below the city.
This group of giant beetles shimmered with golden light all over their bodies, even their bellies, and looked like a force to be reckoned with. So the black dragon stone sculpture on the city wall took priority on them. While the golden beetles were still far away, the black dragon would raise its head and breathe, trying to detonate them in mid-air.
However, three or five fish still managed to slip through the dragon's breath fire wall and blast themselves hard against the city gate.
This round of explosions produced a crimson golden light, with power at least double that of the previous round.
Furthermore, almost all the beetles exploded in the same spot on the city gate, causing several guards on the gate tower directly above to lose their footing and fall to the side.
Even the city gate, which had been reinforced by the Great Evolution Heavenly Pearl, was blasted open with several deep cracks.
Although the crack disappeared in the blink of an eye, its very appearance was an ominous sign. He Yue and the others, who were watching the scene, all had solemn expressions.
Jialoutian, standing below the city gate, turned to look at his own Order of Godhood.
The increasing explosive power of those beetles was undoubtedly related to the Order Godhood—he released a portion of the power accumulated by the Godhood into the beetles.
However, the pace of the city wall repairs remained as fast as ever, without slowing down.
This is not reasonable.
The gods' attacks on the Panlong Secret Realm became increasingly frequent and fierce, even borrowing the power of Jialoutian; while the South Gate had already been breached once before, and should have been declining and unable to withstand the onslaught.
But instead, it stood firm, greatly strengthening its defenses.
If the Cangyan army defending the city had rediscovered some tricks or gained more access to the secret realm, they shouldn't have become more and more stable as the battle progressed.
Before descending to the mortal realm, Jia Loutian had carefully studied the secret realm.
Whether the master is present or not makes a world of difference in the performance and power of the secret realm.
Of course, more importantly, neither Bai Zhantian nor Tong Mingzhenjun has shown up yet.
Before Jia Loutian entered the Panlong Secret Realm, the two said they could arrive within a quarter of an hour.
The time limit has now passed, and the two great gods have yet to appear.
If they had already entered the Panlong Secret Realm but were teleported to a very far place and couldn't make it to the South Gate in time, they should have used the unique secret techniques of the Heavenly Demons to contact Jialoutian.
The fact that there has been no movement at all so far can only mean that they most likely haven't come in yet.
This is wrong.
Jia Loutian couldn't imagine what power on this plain could possibly stop the two celestial beings from heading to the Panlong Secret Realm.
He noticed that one of the Cang Yan Immortals on the city gate tower was missing; perhaps he had gone to the plains to intercept Bai Zhantian and Tong Ming Zhenjun. After all, the other side understood that if they allowed the three great demons to gather in the Panlong Secret Realm, there would be no need to fight any more battles.
However, will and ability are two different things. If the Cangyan people want to stop the two great gods, they must have the ability.
The fact is, the two great gods really didn't come in.
Jialoutian could only surmise that they had encountered some unexpected event. Only an equally powerful force could stop two great gods, such as—
The Nine Nether Emperor?
Looking back now, the war to invade the Earth Mother Plains had been going on for quite some time, and the cries for help from the Cangyan people should have already reached the ears of the Nine Netherworlds.
Has he... already arrived?
Once Jiuyou crosses the Earth Mother Plain, he has only two choices: either enter a dream to save the Earth Mother, or control the Panlong Secret Realm to fight against the Heavenly Demon.
Jialoutian originally thought that he would go to save the Earth Mother first.
After all, if the true ruler of the Earth Mother Plain is not rescued, Jiuyou will have to face three great gods and dozens of other gods. There is absolutely no chance of survival in this battle.
But He never expected that Jiu You would choose the latter, that is, to fight the gods first!
He must have gone to intercept True Lord Tongming and Hundred Battles Heaven first!
Jia Loutian couldn't understand his thought process. Could it be because the Panlong Secret Realm and the Great Square Pot were his lifeblood?
He hadn't ruled out the possibility that Jiuyou might have already visited the Dream Kingdom of the Goddess of Illusionary Music. However, He quickly dismissed this possibility. Battles in dreams were vastly different from reality; higher cultivation didn't guarantee greater fighting prowess, and one couldn't utilize Yuan Power. And then there was Xuandu, the True Immortal, lurking within. For Jiuyou to escape unscathed from there would be no less difficult than rescuing the Panlong Secret Realm from Jialoutian.
However, Jialoutian had already lost patience.
Hurry up and destroy this Panlong Secret Realm! Since Bai Zhantian and Tong Ming Zhenjun are not coming in yet, Jia Loutian will have to go out and find them to join him.
"Qingqi!"
Qingqi was a subordinate deity of Jialoutian and had been standing behind Jialoutian without participating in the attack. After being called upon, Qingqi immediately stepped forward and pulled out a short bow from behind his back.
Another beetle flew over, carrying a small piece of wood, and handed it to Jialoutian.
These tiny pieces of wood, about the size of a fingernail, are fragments that flew out when the south gate of Panlong City was bombed. They will only exist for twenty breaths and will disappear when the south gate is restored.
Jia Loutian held it in his fist, and only opened it after two breaths. A flash of blue light appeared on the wooden piece.
Qingqi took it and quickly inserted it into the groove of the arrow. The depth of the groove changes with the shape of the wooden piece, so it is embedded very firmly.
Then He nocked an arrow and aimed it at the city gate.
The bow is dark red with a very rough surface, even covered with tiny bumps.
Jia Loutian pointed at Qing Qi and shouted:
"Gather!"
