The Sacred City of Chang'an Sacred Mountain, the Defense Council.

As a direct subordinate body of the Sacred Sect, the Defense Council was a crucial department that decided all defense and counterattack matters within the Sacred Clear Sea.

This demonic tornado devastated the Sacred Kingdom. The light barrier continued to spread, and the light and dark demons that had disappeared for hundreds of years reappeared in its path. The Defense Council immediately began working, with countless staff members rushing around the entire Sacred Kingdom.

Based on the severity of the situation, the Defense Council dispatched eighty percent of the Sacred Sect's god-level powerhouses to handle the Light and Dark Demon Race and the crisis in specific positions. The remaining fifteen percent were responsible for handling the Light Barrier and the Sacred Vacuum Barrier. The final five percent was allocated to the Demonic Energy Tornado.

The Guangming were a long-lived tribe with long lifespans, and in the face of the danger posed by the Sacred Vacuum Area, they felt they could wait for the city to be rebuilt in a hundred years. Not to mention the most dangerous Light and Dark Demon Clans, their attitude towards the Sacred Vacuum Area was still this way, let alone the Demonic Energy Tornado.

The demonic energy tornadoes caused no more than temporary damage to a specific area, destroying local buildings and crops, and severely damaging the economy, but they wouldn't harm many people. After all, they were too large and slow to move, and before they arrived, the city lord's mansions in major cities had already organized personnel to evacuate. Furthermore, the Guangming Clan wasn't without the power to bind chickens; they were born as holy cultivators.

In short, the Demonic Tornadoes weren't the Defense Council's primary focus, but that didn't mean they weren't paying attention. On the contrary, because Ji Jiayu was sent to destroy the demonic energy tornado, many members of the Defense Council were quite concerned about the news.

That afternoon, at an ad hoc meeting of the Defense Council on the demonic energy tornado issue, relevant information was compiled and distributed to the high-ranking officials of the Sacred Sect. The senior executives initially listened to the report routinely and didn't take the meeting too seriously. But after watching the relevant videos and listening to the verbal exchanges from the team members from the five major organizations, they were all shocked.

"Have you finished reading?" Lei Xiaoqing, the chairman of the defense council, raised his head and looked at the members of parliament on the left and right sides of the long table.

"If it weren't for the image, I wouldn't have believed it..."

"The demonic energy tornado crisis was resolved by them?"

"I think so."

"This kid, Ji Jiayu, is truly a man who will surprise people!"

"What shocking good news!"

"You say, what is the quality of Ji Jiayu's sacred cornerstone?"

"Divine foundation?"

"Supposedly."

Many members of parliament couldn't help but discuss it. Although they knew they shouldn't discuss it at this time, shouldn't the speaker stop them?

"Ji Jiayu has a record of defeating the Light Barrier. Speaker, do you think we should transfer him to be in charge of leading the Light Barrier team?"

"No." Lei Xiaoqing shook her head without thinking. "The situation is different. It's not like you don't know, he's still too tired right now."

"This is too sudden, and there's not enough time left for him."

"Should we think of something to help him improve?"

"Although he has improved very quickly, it's truly not enough!"

"I will consult with the Pope." Lei Xiaoqing was silent for a moment.

"Furthermore, this matter must be made public immediately to boost everyone's confidence."

A member of parliament said. "Agreed."

"I also agree."

"After these images and news circulate, many people should regard Ji Jiayu as a hero and idol."

"Well, it should change many people's impressions of him."

"That's a good thing."

Soon, the Defense Council members concluded their discussion on the topic and began discussing the issue of the Light Barrier.

Shortly after they concluded the meeting, live images and news of Ji Jiayu, Nie Lanxi, and the others destroying the demonic energy tornado spread. In the Holy City, millions of Light Tribe members waiting at home saw images of light and shadows flashing outside their windows, most of which were images of squad members from the five major organizations destroying the demonic energy tornado.

Many of the Light Clan members were unaware of the Light Barrier and the Light Dark Demon Race, which was a decision made by the Holy Sect to prevent panic.

Watching the demonic energy tornadoes being destroyed one after another, they gradually felt at ease.

However, the light and shadow images showed that accidents occurred from time to time, and many team members were surrounded by the demonic energy tornadoes until Ji Jiayu, Nie Lanxi, and the others arrived and rescued them.

Not only that, Ji Jiayu also led numerous genius teams to investigate detailed information about the demonic energy tornadoes, achieving breakthroughs that seemed like a fantasy to ordinary people. Finally, thanks to the aura of sacred glory he exuded, many members of the genius teams were able to destroy a large number of demonic energy tornadoes.

This series of light and shadow images shocked many Guangming people, and their emotions were complex and indescribable.

"Who said earlier that Ji Jiayu couldn't adapt to the Sacred Guard and would definitely be expelled? Stand up and let me see!" The Guangming people stood on their balconies and shouted.

"The images of his breakthrough are too bluffing! What quality do you think his sacred cornerstone possesses? The sacred key?"

At this moment, no one thought that Ji Jiayu's sacred cornerstone was a divine foundation. Because the Great Prophet cultivated a divine foundation, no matter how powerful Ji Jiayu was, could he be stronger than the Great Prophet? In the hearts of the Guangming people, that was absolutely impossible!

"It must be a divine foundation. The Sacred Light Pearl is one of the Seven Divine Beads!"

"Amazing! I'm only a teenager, and I'm already at the sixth rank, and my true strength is probably comparable to the eighth rank! When he breaks through to the seventh rank, won't he be comparable to the ninth rank? It sounds like a picture book story."

"I have nothing to say about such a human entering the Sacred Sect."

"I'm afraid I can't find a better young man than him in the entire Sacred City. I admire such a human."

"I'm convinced too."

"Just for the blood and sweat he's paid for our Sacred Kingdom, I'm convinced, and I'm convinced!"

The Sacred City incident, the Qiming City incident, and the Demonic Energy Tornado incident—many events combined to make many Guangming people feel devastated for Ji Jiayu, and their impression of him changed 180 degrees. This was definitely a good thing.

In Qiming City, Ding Lu and Ye Hang, who were still in the disaster relief effort, were happy for Ji Jiayu. At the same time, Ji Jiayu was still fighting on the front lines, destroying the demonic energy tornado.

As time passed, the demonic energy tornadoes in this vast area became fewer and fewer until they finally disappeared completely. Ji Jiayu, Nie Lanhu, and their team were finally able to return to Shengyou Camp.

After running around non-stop for several days, Ji Jiayu's spiritual power and divine power were still abundant, but his physical strength was nearly exhausted. He desperately needed to rest.
