Running A Cemetery in North America-Chapter 416 - 287: Xu Fu’s Betrayal

On the deck, the people arranged by Xu Fu were completely devoured by those half-human, half-fish creatures at this moment.

They crazily gnawed on the ground, tearing the black-robed individuals into shreds. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Not until Xu Fu walked out of the cockpit with his disciples did the group of creatures stop their actions, raising their heads to stare coldly at Xu Fu.

One creature immediately began to slowly walk toward Xu Fu, its body continuously oozing slimy liquid, exuding a nauseating stench even while on the sea.

"Master."

A few disciples worriedly stood in front of Xu Fu, fearing something might happen to him.

Faced with creatures they had never encountered before, no one would lower their guard.

"Don’t worry."

Xu Fu opened his mouth, uttering a string of bizarre words, making the creatures instantly restless, spinning in place.

The entire cargo ship suddenly shook violently, and then a huge figure emerged from beneath the sea.

Grasping the hull, it climbed up from the outside of the deck, and the moment this figure appeared, all the creatures obediently crouched on the ground.

They emitted a low hum, as if responding in some way.

Looking out, Xu Fu saw it was a far larger creature, at least seven or eight meters long.

Its surface was covered with dark green scales, and with human-like facial features staring at Xu Fu and the others, it uttered a tone incomprehensible to humans.

Xu Fu immediately began to respond, and soon started communicating with this newly appeared creature.

Before long, the creature let out a low roar and leapt off the cargo ship.

Following its signal, the other creatures dived into the sea, pushing the cargo ship swiftly towards the depths of the South Pacific.

A fierce wind and heavy rain swept over the sea surface, revealing an ancient, mysterious city at sea level.

The moment Xu Fu and others approached, they were immediately shocked, their eyes widening at the magnificent sight in the distance.

No one could have imagined that such a grand place would exist in the deep sea.

"An overseas Immortal Island, just as Master described."

The few disciples beside Xu Fu exclaimed with excitement.

However, in the next second, they witnessed the most terrifying scene of their lives.

The horror was not physiological disgust or revulsion.

But a fear stemming from the heart, emerging from some unknown realm, causing their bodies to tremble uncontrollably.

In the massive city, a gigantic figure like a mountain roamed.

The moment they gazed upon this figure, it was as if a woeful wail echoed in their ears, inciting immense fear in their hearts.

This compelled them to kneel down, covering their ears and begging for mercy.

Only Xu Fu remained calm, as if he already knew the nature of the place where the seal of the otherworldly demon lay.

Propelled by those half-human, half-fish monstrous fish, the cargo ship entered the city, grounding on its reefs.

The massive creature reappeared, letting out a distinctive roar at Xu Fu.

"Cooperate, of course."

Xu Fu reached into his robe and took out a magical treasure, shaped like a bell and cauldron, though damaged, it exuded an inexplicable pressure.

Just by looking, one could tell it was extraordinary.

The massive figure in the distance rumbled and trembled, followed by a shadow flying swiftly to land before Xu Fu.

It was Zhu Tianlin, possessed by the otherworldly demon.

"Creation Bell and Cauldron, where did you get such a thing?" Zhu Tianlin asked, his tone filled with indescribable excitement.

Years ago, the many Immortal Gods worked together to seal this world, using the Creation Bell and Cauldron as the core of the array.

As long as all the Creation Bells and Cauldrons are destroyed, the seal can be completely lifted, reopening this world.

At that time, those inside can leave, and outside life can evolve.

This was precisely what Xu Fu and these otherworldly demons had always dreamed of.

"Found years ago, if we cooperate, I will lead you to destroy all the remaining Creation Bells and Cauldrons," Xu Fu said.

"Why should I trust you?" Zhu Tianlin’s face showed a fierce glare.

"Just because since the appearance of the Grand Sacrificial Society, their purpose has been to suppress the otherworldly demons, while my goal is the opposite."

Xu Fu spoke with fierce determination: "This world is devoid of Spiritual Qi anymore, and I want to escape from here. Our collaboration is the best choice for both parties."

As Xu Fu threw the item in his hand, Zhu Tianlin caught it instantly.

He squeezed it forcefully, and the Creation Bell and Cauldron exploded at once.

The entire world trembled slightly, but this change was extremely subtle, unnoticed by ordinary people.

Only Zhu Tianlin, this otherworldly demon, and Xu Fu, now a Human Immortal, could sense a slight loosening of the seal.

"Very well, now I am even more confident. Once I help my kin escape this seal, I will join you in searching for other Creation Bells and Cauldrons," Zhu Tianlin said with a delighted smile.

...

"What’s going on?"

Sun Yan, reading in the bedroom, suddenly felt the world spinning, as if everything trembled in that moment.

But this sensation instantly vanished, leaving Sun Yan quite puzzled.

He walked to the window and looked outside, unable to detect any change.

Just as Sun Yan planned to check around further to see if something was wrong with his graveyard.

The True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao suddenly appeared behind him with a worried expression, saying, "Someone has destroyed the Creation Bell and Cauldron, this could be troublesome."

"Creation Bell and Cauldron? What’s that?" Sun Yan quickly asked.

This was the first time he had heard of such a thing.

"The otherworldly demons were driven out of this world, with the Creation Bell and Cauldron as the root of the seal, stabilizing the seal, preventing the otherworldly demons from intruding at will. But if someone actively destroys the Creation Bell and Cauldron, the seal’s power will weaken significantly, giving the otherworldly demons a chance to make a comeback."

"Whoever is doing this must be stopped, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable."

For the first time, a look of concern appeared on the True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao’s face.

In the past, many Immortal Families risked falling and disappearing to drive out the otherworldly demons, beyond the eternal boundary, paying a heavy price.

Now, there are few Immortals left in the world. If the otherworldly demons return, there will be no one capable of opposing them, and the beings of this world will once again be enslaved.

"Looks like I need to make a quick trip to the Grand Sacrificial Society."

Listening to the True Monarch of Pure Origin and Mysterious Dao, Sun Yan frowned and mused aloud.

When the eighth week arrives, symbolizing the opportunity to visit the Grand Sacrificial Society, the yellow fog reappeared.

Sun Yan entered the fog and proceeded, quickly arriving outside the Grand Sacrificial Society gates.

Several Tomb Guardians entered the Grand Sacrificial Society one after another, and as Sun Yan entered, he noticed an unusually large number of attendees today.

There were seventy to eighty people, the most Sun Yan had seen at the Grand Sacrificial Society since he arrived.

"A major problem has arisen. I received a six-star task; is this even a task I can handle?"

"How coincidental, me too. Are our six-star tasks the same?"

"Exactly the same, has something major happened? Why has everyone received this task?"

"Six-Star Task, only the strongest Tomb Guardians are eligible to perform it; otherwise, you might not receive the rewards and even end up dead outside."

Many Tomb Guardians discussed fervently, and as Sun Yan approached, he stood beside them, listening to their discussions.
