Shadow Hack Chapter 473 The Halo of the Sword Hear

No one even considered that the eight mysterious attackers could be the eight sage beasts. It didn't make sense, after all. If they had been the ambushers, what need would have there been for all eight of them to attack? Just three would've been enough to make Frontline God retreat.
But how could they know that the strength of the sage beasts wasn't the same as before. Although their realm hadn't fallen, their strength was only a shadow of what they could call upon before. Because of this, Frontline God had misjudged them and thought that the enemy was still saving its strength.
"Who exactly was this killer? Which hidden faction do they belong to? But I think we should shelve this question for the time being. I'm more concerned about whether their appearance has some relation to the malicious energy which had showed up not long."
Battle Sage Vega was a low-key existence among the quasi deities, but although she was young and silent most of the time, no one dared to neglect her existence.
The reason for it was very simple. It was because she was the defender goddess of the Central Continent. Moreover, everyone could faintly sense that she was very mysterious.
The words she said startled everyone.
"They should be related to that terrifying malicious energy which appeared a few months ago. We should start preparing."
Soon, the quasi deities called a conference of flux sages from all six continents. Both the news of this conference and of Chaotian Sect's annihilation were concealed based on general agreement. Not only ordinary fluxers, but even some clans and powers didn't know anything about these matters.
The minimum qualifications required to enter the conference was the cultivation of Domain Sage level. This threshold was so high that not even all Flux Sages knew what would be discussed in the conference.
But one thing was definite, and it was that the Sage Conference would definitely influence Earth's future.
After several days, Shuang Nu had already entered Higher Dimensional Continent and was heading toward her second target, but an old sage beast intercepted her.
"Young mistress, the matter of vengeance needs to be delayed for the time being. Master has commanded that we cannot reveal ourselves for the time being in order for Kunlun Mountains to remain in the shadow."
With this, Higher Dimensional Continent's Bu Clan had a fortunate escape from a calamity they didn't even know was on their doorstep. Not once had Bu Clan thought that could be the second target since unlike Chaotian Sect, they weren't high-profile and conspicuous.
They had offended many powers of Earth, so when they were suddenly exterminated, no one even considered that it could be because of Chaotian Bird's undying bloodline.
After all, everyone knew that the undying sage blood had been stolen by a traitor disciple long ago. If Lu Bu had been informed about this in the Origin World, he would've thanked the heavens from the bottom of his heart.
At the very least, his clansmen were safe.
After a few days, Shuang Nu returned to Kunlun.
"The original plan needs to shelved. Now I want you to go to the Seventh Dimension with others and conquer the remnants of the various bizzare races there. We shall make our based there from which we'll wage our fight against the quasi deities."
Barbarian Niu gave the second command to Shuang Nu with a calm and collected expression.
Seventh Dimension was the most mysterious and highest dimension in Earth. Only those who had reached Flux Sage realm could enter it.
But the abyss of Seventh Dimension was considered as a forbidden region even for them. The place where most domain sages had perished was precisely that one. And Barbarian Niu had chosen to march straight into that region.
Because of his foiled plans, Barbarian Niu, who was actually God Undercurrent, had decided to yield for the time being. It was something he had to do even if he was an ancient god.
From this, it could be clearly seen that he was a terrifying existence.
Shuang Nu and the nine old sage beasts as well as the others sage beasts of Kunlun Mountains were the only forces under this control. But they were very weak compared to the quasi deities of Earth.
Yet he knew that there were bizarre creatures from the Origin World in the Sixth and Seventh Dimensions which were humans from different clans.
Because the world punishment would have erased them from existence, they had escaped to the abyss of the Seventh Dimension. They didn't hesitate to produce descendents with the local dimensional monsters and had concealed their origin to the point that no one could recognize them. After a long time, they were even classified as humanoid monsters.
Since God Undercurrent had awakened, it meant that it was time to awaken the origin memories of those bizarre people. He would remind those half-human monsters that they weren't monsters, but humans possessing the highest level of intelligence.
"Master, if we all proceed to the Seventh Dimension, what about your safety?"
The chief of elder of the sage beasts was an armadillomon. Humans called it a mountain sage beast, or simply mountain sage.
After the dimensional shooting star fell on Earth and the first batch of beasts evolved, he had become the most formidable existence among the evolved monsters.
But soon, fluxers appeared among humans. A human hero led his people to completely eliminate the monsters with flux energy and weapons from the Dark Ages.
At that time, God Undercurrent had descended and bestowed him with the bloodline of a giant beast from the Middle Continent. They had also entered a master-servant contract.
With this opportunity, it's fate changed from annihilation to becoming one of the twelve sage beasts with an ancient bloodline. The experiences of the other ancient bloodline sage beasts were actually similar.
They were all graced with kindness by God Undercurrent. Because of that, even if they hadn't been bound by a contract, they would have still served him as faithful servants.
When the nine elder sage beasts looked at God Undercurrent now, they knew that he wasn't too strong. Although he had seized the body of Barbarian Niu nourished by divine blood and his cultivation was quickly increasing, his strength was stuck at Flux Master level because of the innate limitation of his body.
If everyone went to the Seventh Dimension and the quasi deities discovered God Undercurrent hiding in the Kunlun Mountains, it would be an absolute catastrophe.
"Don't worry, there's nothing to be afraid of. This god won't die so easily. Even if they found my hiding place by chance and killed me, I could seize another body in a few days. You all shall go. This is an order, go and properly assist Shuang Nu. She is my only hope for returning to Middle Continent."
With a wave of the hand, God Undercurrent's silhouette gradually faded into the surrounding darkness. He didn't give them any opportunity to persuade him. Even if God Undercurrent had fallen to Flux Master level, he still possessed many unfathomable techniques.
"Let's go. How can we enter the Seventh Dimension?" Shuang Nu asked with an expressionless face. She paused then before speaking once more. "Do any of you know a person named Li Yunmu?"
"Li Yunmu? Haven't heard of this name. But if he's a new rising star among the humans, it's not something we'd know. We haven't been in contact with the human society for a long time. Young mistress, did something happen?"
Mountain Sage suspiciously looked at the newly adopted daughter of their master. According to his previous conversations with her, her heart had turned dark and she didn't care about any unrelated matters. So why was she so anxious to learn about a human?
"Nothing, I want to kill this person."
The majority of Shuang Nu's consciousness sea was submerged in darkness, but in the very center, there was weak but firmly resisting halo of her sword heart.
Its flickering light was the only part of her which was still resisting. Within the halo, there were figures of two people. One was an old man holding a sword while the other one was the person whom she had enquired about—Li Yunmu.
