Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 55: Gathering of Powerhouses

"This is the power of magic forbidden spell!"

In another direction in the ruins of the city, there was another team clearing out the Fierce Beasts. Leading them was none other than Zhang Ming, who had successfully reached the fourth-tier Dragon Transformation stage.

When the Storm Domain arrived, the awe-inspiring power, like a divine force, made Zhang Ming’s heart weigh heavily.

Behind him.

A young man who had reached the perfection level of the third stage asked curiously, "I’ve heard that the most powerful technique of mages is the forbidden spell, which is several times stronger than conventional spells.

But casting forbidden spells requires extremely high demands and must not be disturbed. Does the master know who is casting the forbidden spell?"

The master referred to by the young man, was naturally Zhang Ming.

Like others, Zhang Ming also relied on his own strength to establish a powerful force, known as the Dragon Tiger Martial Arts Hall.

Before the cataclysm.

The martial arts hall Zhang Ming belonged to was called by this name.

However, with the arrival of the cataclysm, the Fierce Beasts ran wild, and the Dragon Tiger Martial Arts Hall was destroyed.

Now with strength, Zhang Ming naturally wants to rebuild the Dragon Tiger Martial Arts Hall.

Of course.

The current Dragon Tiger Martial Arts Hall doesn’t truly teach traditional martial arts; rather, like the Cyan Yang Association and the Blood Alliance, it combines powerful cultivators to fight against the Fierce Beasts together.

Upon hearing the question.

Zhang Ming slightly shook his head, "Too far away, I cannot perceive much, but judging from the power emanating from the forbidden spell, at least it’s at a fourth-tier level.

To wield the power of a forbidden spell at the fourth-tier level, one must at least be part of the ranks of a fourth-tier mage.

Such strong individuals, throughout the entire Federation, there are only a few of them!"

Upon saying this.

Zhang Ming paused for a moment, then continued, "I remember hearing that the Blood Alliance has also come to the Western Continent, aiming to hunt Fierce Beasts.

The president of the Blood Alliance is a top-tier mage, who recently joined the ranks of mages.

If I’m not mistaken, the appearance of the forbidden spell this time should be related to this person."

Blood Alliance!

Upon hearing these three words, many in the Dragon Tiger Martial Arts Hall showed subtle changes in their expressions.

Nowadays, there are many forces in the Federation, but those that can be considered top-tier are only a handful.

The Blood Alliance.

Is one of those powerful forces.

Although the Dragon Tiger Martial Arts Hall has no major grievances with the Blood Alliance, there have been occasional skirmishes over the years, mainly for Fierce Beasts and cultivation resources.

After all, with the resurgence of Spiritual Qi now, many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures are being nurtured, and despite everything being available in the Divine Kingdom chat group, exchanges require corresponding contributions.

As the saying goes, every penny should be spent wisely, and contribution is something everyone wishes to save if possible, thus making the globally nurtured Heavenly and Earthly Treasures the primary target for cultivators’ contention.

Looking at everyone’s expressions, Zhang Ming calmly said, "Don’t worry, we and the Blood Alliance keep to ourselves.

Besides, at present, we’re not the only two forces coming to the Western Continent; if a conflict arises, it would only benefit others.

Don’t forget the purpose of our trip, firstly to kill Fierce Beasts and seize contributions, and secondly to search for Heavenly and Earthly Treasures in the Western Continent; the rest has nothing to do with us."

Upon hearing this. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Others also visibly eased.

At this time, Zhang Ming again looked towards the direction from which the forbidden spell’s aura came, and that power had gradually dissipated.

"To make a fourth-tier mage directly use a forbidden spell, there must be powerful Fierce Beasts appearing, whose tier wouldn’t be lower than fourth-tier mid-quality.

Fierce Beasts also have their territories, this city has one fourth-tier mid-quality Fierce Beast, there’s likely not a second one.

Hence, start searching for other Fierce Beasts with all our might, we need to vanquish the remaining powerful Fierce Beasts before the Blood Alliance!"

Once the words were spoken.

Without waiting for others to speak, Zhang Ming’s bodily Qi surged explosively, his entire body shot out like an arrow leaving the string, rushing towards the depths of the city ruins.

Seeing this, the others hurriedly followed Zhang Ming’s footsteps.

...

"Forbidden spell!"

"Fourth-tier mage!"

"Interesting..."

Yang Yan looked towards the direction from which the forbidden spell’s power emanated, his eyes filled with deep meaning.

The Federation military is now officially attacking the other three continents, aiming to reclaim them all, and Yang Yan, as the marshal of the Fifth Combat Zone, naturally cannot stay hidden in the rear.

Besides.

Yang Yan has long reached the fourth tier, making him one of the top figures within the Federation, coupled with the strong capability of the Fifth Combat Zone, handling the Fierce Beasts on the Western Continent poses no problem.

Just then.

Another surge of immense blood Qi erupted, vaguely resembling low howling, akin to a dragon’s roar.

Yang Yan’s expression turned a bit more serious, "Being able to transform blood Qi into a great dragon, it seems this place not only has a fourth-tier mage but also harbors a fourth-tier Dragon Transformation stage expert!"

Fourth-tier mage!

Fourth-tier Dragon Transformation stage!

Yang Yan realized, the ruins of the city ahead no longer required the Fifth Combat Zone to act, just these two fourth-tier cultivators and their forces are enough to clear the Fierce Beasts there.

Soon after.

Yang Yan led the people of the Fifth Combat Zone away.

The Western Continent is vast, with countless countries once standing, but those nations were all destroyed by Fierce Beasts, leaving behind ruins.

The city ruins ahead is merely a miniature reflection of the Western Continent.

Under such circumstances, Yang Yan is not inclined to vie for resources here with others.

Not only did the Fifth Combat Zone withdraw, but even other civilian forces, realizing two fourth-tier cultivators are present, retreated voluntarily.

Given that the Western Continent is just being explored, there’s plenty of Fierce Beasts and Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, it’s unnecessary to engage in life-and-death struggles right at the beginning.

Such actions would only offer others an opportunity to take advantage.

...

"Boom!"

A sky-reaching blaze transformed into an endless sea of flames, engulfing a fourth-tier lower-quality Fierce Beast. No matter how it roared and struggled, it couldn’t escape the sea of flames.

Finally.

The fourth-tier lower-quality Fierce Beast lay powerless, turning into a pile of charcoal.

The sea of flames dissipated.

Revealing the visage of an elderly man in a mandarin jacket.

"The Li Huo Divine Palm truly lives up to being a fourth-tier lower-quality secret technique, its power is indeed formidable, though I wonder how much contribution this Fierce Beast would offer post-sacrifice!"

Ji Xuan slightly shook his head.

Only by sacrificing a complete Fierce Beast corpse can full contribution be acquired; if the corpse is damaged, the contribution received would similarly be reduced.

As of now, this Fierce Beast’s body has turned into a charred heap, hardly complete.

However, though he said this, Ji Xuan didn’t feel too regretful, as he primarily aimed to test the fourth-tier Nascent Soul stage and the power of the Li Huo Divine Palm this time.

Now being able to instantly kill a same-tier Fierce Beast, Ji Xuan felt quite satisfied.

Before Ji Xuan could truly sacrifice this Fierce Beast corpse, a dreadful aura burst forth, overwhelming shadows covered the land, and crimson and violent pupils made Ji Xuan’s expression subtly change.
