The colorful Spiritual Energy gushed forth with a deafening boom like a fountain.

In just a short moment, almost half of the canyon had turned into an ocean of colorful Spiritual Energy.

However, at this moment, through the rift torn by Yu Zi Yu, the visible colorful Spiritual Energy began to spread throughout Misty Mountains.

*Zi Zi…* At this moment, everyone and everything shrouded in colorful glow seemed to be undergoing a transformation, constantly evolving.

Old trees were growing lusher and thicker. Each and every vines were growing longer and longer, coiling around everything like Dragons…

Lush Spirit Grasses adorned the land, and Spirit Flowers bloomed everywhere in the mist.

And this was just the beginning.

Upon closer inspection, even the rocks seemed to have become harder and denser.

This was a newly born world. Everything was starting anew from this point on. Even the air was filled with Spiritual Energy…

*Roar, Roar, Roar…* Roars and howls kept reverberating through Misty Mountains. The countless Mutant Beasts were cheering as if celebrating.

It was far better than the dense and persistent colorful Spiritual Energy of North Canyon. For these Mutant Beasts of the inner region, this kind of Spiritual Energy was just right.

Under the effect of the colorful Spiritual Energy, the claws of Mutant Beasts grew bigger and sharper, and their bodies more robust.

At this moment…

*EE-ee, eek-eek…* Sharp screams rang from the mountaintop as the tribe of Mutant Macaque that Golden Monkey had subdued began to get excited. 

Breathing the whiffs of Spiritual Energy, their changes became particularly obvious.

But regardless of their physical changes, their Peak Spiritual Energy was constantly increasing.

In just a short while, the Spiritual Energy of these low-level Mutant Beasts experienced an explosive growth.

Peak Spiritual Energy of a few of them had even reached 6,000-7,000. They had truly become High Level Mutant Beasts.

High Level Mutant Beasts were more than capable of tearing apart a fully armed Human Squad. However, such terrifying beings were now appearing in groups.

While the second round of Spiritual Energy Tide arrived in North Canyon, and even in Misty Mountains…

In the distance…

As if sensing something…

*Roar, Roar, Roar…* Beastly roars and howls shook the sky.

At this moment, if one were to look toward the source, they would definitely notice that the gazes of countless Mutant Beasts were directed toward Misty Mountains.

That phenomenon, where even the mist was tainted with a colorful hue, was enough to make every Mutant Beast obsessed. 

Madness!

True madness!

The longing from the depths of their hearts and souls drove every Mutant Beast to madness.

The colorful Spiritual Energy was akin to poison, but if one could withstand it, it was a true blessing. And now, the whiff of this opportunity had triggered the bodily instincts of the countless Mutant Beasts.

*Roar, Roar, Roar…* Roars and howls shook the earth.

Just at that moment…

*Rooaar..* A Tiger’s roar reverberated through the sky, so loud and powerful that the resulting shockwaves of it sent the leaves flying in all directions. The deafening roar echoing between the mountains sounded like peals of thunder or the surging torrents of water.

Looking toward the source, a giant Yellow Tiger the size of a small mountain was charging toward Misty Mountains.

On another side…

*Screech, Screech, Screech…* High-pitched screeches that could tear people’s eardrums rang across the sky as countless birds filled the sky.

From afar, it looked as if dark clouds were passing across the sky with a shocking momentum. However, what was most shocking was the flock of Mutant Birds flying at the forefront.

It was a wake of Mutant Vultures. Each of them had a wingspan of 7-8 meters, and their bodies seemed to be on fire. Every time they flapped their wings, a sea of flames would spread through the sky, surging toward Misty Mountains.

Apparently, the mutation of Misty Mountains had even alarmed these Mutant Birds of the desert.

Meanwhile, in a city not far from Misty Mountains…

Countless people stared in astonishment at the distant mountain which was radiating colorful hues.

That was one of the forbidden zones recognized by Humans—the Misty Mountains.

Access was strictly forbidden, and those who dared to trespass would find themselves entombed for eternity.

A home to countless mysterious Mist Beasts, and unknown creatures as well.

So far, no one has returned alive from the depths of Misty Mountains.

Rumor had it that even one of the ten secret units of China had failed to return alive.

Regardless of whether this was a rumor or not, the horror of Misty Mountains was plain evident.

And now, this terrifying place happened to be undergoing a new transformation.

However, for some reason, as they looked at the emerging colors, the Superhumans who possessed Spiritual Energy all felt a slight longing rising from the depths of their Soul.

If it were not for reason telling them that Misty Mountains were a forbidden zone, they would have instinctively advanced toward Misty Mountains, unable to control their footsteps.

“What’s that?” Someone asked the question that was bogging everyone’s mind.

However, before they could discuss it, a heavily armed soldier pushed them back.

At this moment, if someone were to look at the entire city from the sky, they would definitely see countless soldiers guarding the entire city.

Far away, in other cities, fully armed convoys were heading straight for Misty Mountains.

…

“The second round of the Spiritual Energy Tide is here, but it came so quickly and suddenly, and also rose from Misty Mountains that just became a forbidden zone.”

“Oh? Well, Misty Mountains do indeed have some problems, but unfortunately, we don’t have time to take care of them now.”

In a mysterious place, two middle-aged men dressed in military uniforms were calmly discussing. And then, as if thinking of something, one of them asked, “What should we do next? Should we do something about it?”

“Do something about it!? How can we? Next, the entire China will be undergoing a major transformation. Not only the heart mountains and old forests, but the Spiritual Energy Tide will even sweep through the cities. What we need to do is calm the public and ensure that when the second tide arrives completely, the cities remain as calm and peaceful as ever.”

Speaking to this point, the other middle-aged man adjusted his green military cap and added,  “By the way, spread the news of the Spiritual Energy Tide, and also disseminate the Spiritual Energy Cultivation Method and various Combat Techniques that we have compiled. I believe that after this Spiritual Energy Tide, China should have produced quite a few outstanding talents.”

Listening to the other middle-aged military man’s proposition, the other soldier was slightly taken aback.

Then, he helplessly sighed and tentatively asked, “What about the Ancient Martial Arts side? Are they not going to take action?”

“Take action!?”

With a cold smile on his face, the middle-aged military man harrumphed and stated, “Those old geezers are currently enjoying the benefits brought by the Spiritual Energy Tide to their hearts’ content. They don’t have time to bother with us.”

*Haa…* A sigh escaped the other military man’s lips as helplessness surged through him.

Ever since they lost General Li, China had indeed lost control to some extent. Especially with the arrival of the Spiritual Energy Tide, which had made some people restless.

Now, not to mention establishing their own power, but there were already some who were no longer following orders.
