Chapter 112 The Situation Changes

Blazing and domineering flames soared into the sky, almost incinerating the heavens and boiling the seas, or rather, they already possessed the power to do so. The Xuanhei Zhuoshi Banner (Profound Black Turbid World Banner) transformed into a dark light, sheltering everyone, but even through the vast and terrifying, world-shattering magic weapon, Wei Yuan felt the domineering high temperature in that instant.

The golden-red heat distorted the firmament, burning karma and sealing space.

"...Tsk, I didn't expect that we only reached the edge of the South Sea and explored one area."

"The Fire God Zhurong has already appeared."

Wei Yuan lowered his eyes. According to what the Sanshouguo (Three-Headed Country) warrior said, the real Fire God was at the core of the South Sea, and was fighting against something. But here, there were [real] enemies. It wasn't that simple, and all information needed to be discerned and processed.

The Qing Shan Long Nv (Azure-Clad Dragon Girl) Xian resisted the first wave of fiery attacks.

The second golden-red flame swept down from above in a violent and crazy manner. Suddenly, the flame split apart from the middle, and accompanied by a faint dragon roar, Qing Shan Xian stepped out of the suddenly separated flames. The white-haired girl she held in her arms stretched out her hands, her five fingers spread.

With a blank expression, she manipulated the flames to push them away, allowing them to dissipate naturally. When the golden-red flames reversed and attacked again, sword energy crisscrossed in the sky, and then the Daoist's Xuanhei Zhuoshi Banner simply covered it. The mountain-burning and sea-boiling, space-melting golden-red flames couldn't be controlled, twisting and turning into fire dragons that flew into the Xuanhei Banner.

Leaving golden-red threads on the Xuanhei Banner, mysterious and wonderful beyond words.

A calm voice came.

The Daoist tumbled in the hot waves.

Wei Yuan stepped on the void, standing before the flames rushing towards the sky, and said slowly, "Let this poor Daoist learn something. Xian, take her away first." Qing Shan Xian didn't hesitate at all, didn't act coy, and directly turned into a light to retreat. The flames still wanted to continue sweeping over.

The Daoist stretched out his right hand and clenched his five fingers.

"I said—"

"Withdraw!"

The wildly violent sword energy tore through mountains and seas, extinguished thunder and fire, and crisscrossed back and forth! It was already able to directly confront and contend with the domineering flames.

The many warriors who had just been knocked down by a bowl of 'delicious food' drew their swords, originally intending to join the battle and help, but seeing the flames soaring into the sky,

burning space, sword energy crisscrossing, tearing everything, they were momentarily at a loss, not knowing whether to go forward or retreat, feeling like they were in a dream.

"This, this is..."

"Retreat quickly."

The Dragon Girl Xian appeared, her voice clear and cold: "Perhaps Wei Yuan triggered something in the Kunlun Ruins before, or rather, the illusory image we saw when we first arrived in the South Sea proved that Zhurong discovered us."

Xian was referring to when they first arrived in the South Sea, when Zhurong appeared illusorily and said to retreat quickly.

"The situation is currently unknown. Forcibly staying here is not a good choice."

"Leave."

A hoarse voice. Qin Yuan, supporting Shi Yi, had recovered and slowly stood up, giving the order. With a backbone in place, everyone immediately formed a formation and moved away from the direction of the two terrifying auras.

Suddenly, waves of hot and domineering aura chased from behind.

Qing Shan Xian's expression changed slightly.

How is that possible?!

Wei Yuan has already lost?

She subconsciously wanted to turn her head, but was pulled back by the white-haired girl she was holding.

The latter's eyes were deep and without light, without any ripples, her voice clear and quiet, without emotional fluctuations:

"There's nothing behind us. What do you want to do?"

Nothing?!

Xian's heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly woke up, understanding what the enemy behind them was—the [Real] Daoguo (Dao Fruit)?! The Great Qin army's formation also slowed down, even the battle-hardened warriors had their own obsessions and pursuits.

Or rather, it was precisely because they had something to pursue and something they wanted to protect.

Or rather, it was precisely because they had something to pursue and something they wanted to protect.

That they could endure the trials of constant tempering.

At this moment, everyone heard Shi Yi's voice in their ears, slowly saying, "All move forward. Without military orders, no retreat, no looking back. The Great Qin military regulations are unforgiving."

The Great Qin warriors shouted in unison.

"Yes!"

Shi Yi suddenly struck out with a palm, pressing it on Qin Yuan's shoulder.

A gentle force directly sent her out, causing the energetic girl to be stunned as she was sent into the military formation. Then, the resolute-faced, sword-browed and star-eyed god directly turned around and, amidst Qin Yuan's screams, charged head-on towards [Real], one of the ten peak Turbid World existences.

The two sides clashed.

Shi Yi's expression faltered for a moment, and then he slammed out a punch.

As if he wasn't affected by the [Real] Daoguo at all.

The violent temporal turbulence directly caused the time in front of Shi Yi to be out of sync with the normal time around him. And the next moment, the pure world rules, the twisted turbulence generated by the time and age misalignment, instantly tore and erupted.

This was an absolutely terrifying killing technique!

If Shi Yi was willing, he could make a person's head exist three days ago, while their body existed three days later, purely using the power of time to dismember the enemy in the most decisive way, and then completely exile them.

But at this moment, it was only the impact of the reverse flow of time that created a vast and terrifying sense of collision.

Successfully shattering the illusory figure that appeared in front, the domain of time and age unfolded with a bang, and the power representing the three concepts of sun, moon, and year dragged [Real] down, forcing its speed to become slower and slower. This pillar of the Northwest Celestial Realm showed the other uses of time for the first time in front of everyone.

Thus, even one of the top ten existences had its speed slowed down infinitely for an instant.

Using speed to fight slowness, time stagnation, acceleration, and changes at will.

Shi Yi's thinking froze in the next moment.

Even the powerful and resolute Lord of Years still fell into [Real]'s influence.

Then, in this reality, he seemed to see a certain energetic girl running towards him, and he seemed to have more hemp rope in his hand. And the next moment, he realized that this was not false, that Qin Yuan had really returned.

Qin Yuan directly carried Shi Yi on her back and turned to run.

[Real] still wanted to pursue, but suddenly felt an extremely sharp and domineering sword intent behind it. And the pupils of Yuanshi Tianzun (Primeval Heavenly Lord) contracted, feeling that everything around him had fallen into a blurred state. The next moment, it seemed that he would immediately fall into [Real]'s influence, and he vaguely saw a figure gathering and taking shape.

And instantly, the realization that this figure was transformed from [Real]'s authority

also began to rapidly blur.

Wei Yuan remained calm, sweeping his sleeves.

The Xuanhei Zhuoshi Banner, and the Heavenly Qing Qi (Heavenly Clear Energy) that had been shattered, were all released together, barely buying an instant of time. Then, sword energy flowed, and his right hand gripped the Chang'an Sword.

Just at this moment, the [Real] Daoguo lurking in the dark heard a vast and majestic voice: "…Stop, let them go." [Real] raised an eyebrow. He didn't want to engage in close combat with that guy whose body was full of sword energy.

He sneered a few times and disappeared silently.

And the next moment, sword energy crisscrossed, directly enveloping Qin Yuan and Shi Yi, and immediately moved away from that area. Shi Yi seemed to have given the large group of people a time acceleration buff at the end.

That was why everyone had run a long distance.

And that was how the Qin Yuan bird, briefly possessing Shi Yi's authority, was able to carry him out.

"...Has it retreated?"

Wei Yuan's escape light suppressed, turning to look at the golden-red flames, and the formless and immaterial [Real] leaving, his heart faintly palpitating. The Fire God Zhurong had no intention of fighting, and seemed to be hiding something, had some difficulties. His purpose seemed to be to drive them out of the South Sea.

And [Real]…

Wei Yuan recalled the feeling just now, recalled the figure he almost saw, and subconsciously pressed his brow, his expression solemn—this authority was extremely strange. Without corresponding means, even he could only buy a momentary opportunity to confront it.

If the Heavenly Qing Qi hadn't been shattered, there would have been a greater chance.

It's just…

My weakness, the [Real] in my heart, who will it be?

Wei Yuan silently shook his head, looking at Shi Yi beside him. In the battle just now, if Shi Yi hadn't given the Great Qin army and Qing Shan Xian time acceleration, it definitely wouldn't have been so easy to escape. However, Wei Yuan had just asked, and according to Shi Yi's time perception,

these guys had actually run for more than a year.

Of course, for Qing Shan Xian and the white-haired girl, their concept of time had not been interfered with.

It was just equivalent to a simple buff.

However, directly giving subordinates a year of time acceleration to escape.

Shi Yi, aren't you being a bit too cautious?

Wei Yuan saw Shi Yi gradually waking up and said, "Shi Yi, how are you?"

"I'm fine…"

Wei Yuan asked suspiciously, "What did you see just now?"

Shi Yi closed his eyes: "A perfect world, where there is no oppression, no exploitation, a world where opportunities are equal, but not absolutely equal. The order is very beautiful, very perfect."

Wei Yuan was stunned: "But you weren't bewitched at first."

Shi Yi said calmly:

"To engage in our red cause, we must be down-to-earth and take one step at a time."

"False and empty talk is not allowed."

"Then why did you still look?"

Shi Yi said without changing his expression, "But I still wanted to see it, to learn from the experience."

Wei Yuan couldn't help but sigh with a smile, "Then what experience did you learn?"

Shi Yi was silent, subconsciously glanced at the girl carrying him, and remained silent.

Wei Yuan raised his eyes to look around, and suddenly noticed something was wrong, his eyes slightly narrowed: "…Unfortunately, it seems that Zhurong doesn't want us to enter the South Sea, nor does he want us to set foot in the Great Wilderness."

It seemed that he had been prepared for a long time, but he had never actively revealed it.

And in the end, because they stepped into this place and even noticed the secrets of the Kunlun Ruins and the changes in the South Sea of the Age of Gods, it finally surfaced.

Above the firmament, countless turbid qi surged and ran, connecting with the flames and transforming into an extremely complex and terrifying great formation.

Tiantishan (Heavenly Emperor Mountain).

Dijun (Emperor Jun) looked at the [delicious food] that a certain Daoist had transmitted to him with magic. He remained silent for a long time, not having the courage to take a bite.

With a sweep of his sleeves, he brought this thing to the place where Si Wenming was imprisoned, nodding to the lazy Yu Wang (King Yu) who was basking in the sun. Yu Wang nodded lazily, taking it as a greeting. Dijun wasn't annoyed, but just placed the food on the table, his tone calm: "Si Wenming, I have something I need your help with."

"Need my help?"

Yu Wang yawned: "You're the Heavenly Emperor, you need my help?"

Dijun said, "You're a cook, and you also understand cooking. Take a look at this thing, what do you think?"

Yu Wang was stunned, then his eyes widened, and then he was overjoyed, laughing loudly:

"Hahaha, you finally know my cooking skills!"

"Good!"

"I'll take a look right away."

"Oh, small matter! Let me tell you, the key to this dish is color, aroma, and flavor..."

Yu Wang looked at the thing Dijun gave him and fell into silence. This… He looked at Dijun suspiciously, "Are you finally unable to resist trying to poison me to death?"

The Heavenly Emperor said calmly, "It was made by Yuan, whom you know."

So Yu Wang's doubts were dispelled.

"Me?! Hahahaha, it's Ah Yuan's dish!"

"Then it can't be unappetizing!"

Could it be that this is the kind of thing that looks very ugly but tastes very good? Yu Wang laughed heartily, then took out the spirit he had when he swallowed the Bi Fang bird, and swallowed it boldly.

Then—

Thud!!!

Yu Wang fell heavily to the ground.

Foaming at the mouth.

Barely propping up his thumb, he said, "Ah Yuan's dish, sure enough, really good, delicious..."

His eyes rolled back, and he fainted directly.

Yu Wang, down for the count.

Dijun: "..."

The cold Heavenly Emperor was expressionless: "...Back then, I only said that the competition was to make the worst-tasting food in the world. I never expected that you would be so competitive, actually abandoning all your cooking skills. Even Yu can't eat it."

"Hm?!"

The Heavenly Emperor was suddenly surprised, lowering his eyes to look down, seeing the South Sea region plunged into a state of chaos.

Human Realm·Heavenly Court Talisman Great Formation.

Taiqing Realm.

Fuxi, who had received Wei Yuan's gift, was happily torturing the true spirit of the Earth God, watching the other party repeat the process of 'screaming' - 'fainting' - 'waking up' - screaming again, suddenly changed his expression.

Wait, this is—

The new A'Wa is under attack?!

"Wei Yuan!"

Fuxi shouted, then his expression froze.

The overseas South Sea region has lost the cornerstone of Heavenly secrets communication.

And at this moment, whether it was from the level of Heavenly secrets, karma, or reality, the entire South Sea region, along with the area connected to the East Sea and West Sea, disappeared silently, turning into large swaths of terrifying hollows shrouded in pure Turbid Qi. After the continuous search for secrets, and the East Sea setting foot in the top ten, he finally stopped hiding.

At this time.

East Sea Great Gully, the Land of Guixu (Returning Ruins).

The new Guixu guardian Pixiu·Jue.

Took office.
