Chapter 134:The Capital Crisis
Kai walked through the palace gates with his escort close behind him. The guards around the courtyard stared with stiff faces. Some looked nervous. Some looked angry. Kai ignored their reactions and moved straight toward the throne hall.“We sent word ahead,” Ryn whispered beside him. “They should be ready for us.”“They are ready,” Kai said. “But not in the way they want us to believe.”The throne hall doors opened. The king sat on the raised platform with several ministers on both sides. His expression was heavy.“Kai of Azure Cloud,” the king said. “You arrived faster than expected.”“We came because the threat under your city is rising,” Kai replied. “We need full access to your intelligence before anything worsens.”The king shook his head. “You will have protection privileges in the capital, but internal intelligence remains under royal control.”Kai stepped forward. “If you withhold information, people will die. The beacon beneath your city is unstable.”Murmurs spread among th
Chapter 133:The Hidden Beacon network
Kai stood at the center of the main hall the moment he heard the System speak in a sharp tone.“Host, nine beacon nodes detected beneath the major provinces. Energy signatures match the new awakening pattern.”Kai lifted his head. “Show me the locations.”Bright points spread across the projection that appeared over the hall floor. Elders rushed in as the alarm echoed through Azure Cloud Peak.Elder Rin pointed at the glowing lights. “These are spread too wide. How are we supposed to hold this line?”Kai looked at him calmly. “We will hold it. But first, everyone gather. I need full attention.”Elder Myra walked in next. “Scouts are returning. They all reported the same thing. Strange movements near the southern province. It lines up with two of the beacon points.”“Host,” the System spoke again, “all nine beacons are stable for now, but the activation rhythm is speeding up.”Kai nodded. “Understood.”He raised his voice. “Send word. I want every division from Azure Cloud assembled. N
Chapter 132:The secret Rift Archives
Kai followed the Silent Rift Sect elders through the narrow stone passage as the air grew colder. “How far does this go?” he asked.“We are close,” the leading elder said. “The archives are beneath all formations.”The System spoke in Kai’s mind. Detection active. Old higher-realm energy is sealed inside these walls. Density increasing.Kai kept moving as the path widened into a heavy iron door marked with old runes. The elder placed his hand on the sigil. The runes lit up and the door opened with a dull vibration.“This is the entrance to the Secret Rift Archives,” the elder said. “Only sect masters enter. Today you enter because the situation has changed.”Kai stepped inside. Rows of stone shelves, ancient scrolls, and crystal tablets filled the chamber. The air carried a faint pressure that pushed against his chest.Kai looked around. “How long has all this been hidden?”“Thousands of years,” the elder said. “We preserved every record we could find.”The System pulsed. Warning. Res
Chapter 131:The Silent Rift Sect’s Urgent Summons
Kai moved through the narrow path that led into the Silent Rift Sect’s hidden valley and kept his steps steady as the mist shifted around him.“Stay close,” he said as he signaled the small team behind him.The valley opened slowly, quiet and cold, and several robed elders waited at the entrance with stiff expressions.One elder stepped forward. “Kai of Azure Cloud, our leader is waiting for you.”Kai looked at each of them. “Your message said it was urgent. I came immediately.”The elders exchanged uneasy glances but spoke no more as they led him deeper into the valley.System spoke inside Kai’s mind. “Heart rate spikes detected among all escorts. Their stress levels are abnormal.”Kai kept walking. “I noticed.”The main chamber was carved into stone, and the Sect Leader stood at the center with eight elders arranged behind him in a tight formation.The Sect Leader raised a hand. “Kai. Thank you for coming. We would not have called unless the matter truly required it.”Kai stepped fo
Chapter 130:Return To Azure Cloud
Kai raised his hand as the transmission array exploded. “Stay behind me,” he said while a wave of force rushed across the underground chamber. His Sovereign Domain expanded in a clean circle and blocked the shockwave before it hit the group.One of the captains stared at the dust settling around them. “Sect Master, what was that voice?”“Ignore the voice for now,” Kai said. “Is everyone uninjured?”“We are fine,” the second captain said. “But the array is destroyed.” [Structural Collapse Detected. Unknown interference still active in the sand layer.]Kai looked at the cracked floor. “We are leaving. Prepare for immediate retreat.”An elder pointed toward the tunnel. “Sect Master, what about the beacon residue?”“We already collected the core fragments,” Kai said. “Remaining traces will only distract us.”The teams regrouped quickly and followed Kai out of the underground chamber. As they reached the surface, the ground vibrated with light pulses moving through the sand.[Rift Activi
Chapter 29:The Higher Realm Signal
The chamber shook again as dust fell from the ceiling. Kai looked at the glowing runes on the walls and waited for the system’s confirmation. The answer came fast. “System, confirm what we are seeing.” [Artificial Beacon Signal Detected. This location was used to transmit coordinates to an external realm.] Kai exhaled and said, “So it was not a natural spike.” One of the division leaders stepped closer and asked, “Does this mean someone is calling forces from the higher realms?” Kai nodded. “It is very likely. Gather everyone here.” Soon the division leaders and senior elders gathered in the underground chamber. Their steps echoed across the long stone corridor. An elder asked, “Kai, what did you find?” Kai pointed at the wall. “These markings are from the higher realm. Someone strengthened the rift from below. This place is acting as a beacon.” The room turned silent until another elder whispered, “Are we dealing with a planned invasion?” Kai faced the group. “We need to di
