The Annihilation Period

Companion...

Xiao Ran's lips twitched slightly.

He glanced at the yellowish-brown figure that had been smashed into the deep pit, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

You call this a companion??

Is there some misunderstanding about your companion?

Whose friend would be so ruthless?

Xiao Ran had many questions in his mind, but as cheers rang out, Xiao Ran doubts were gradually replaced by relief.

"Senior Xiao! Senior Xiao is back!!"

Within the Guardian Zone, Lin Jue led the Guardian Zone's Prodigies Human Federation, all of whom rushed out with joyful smiles.

They looked at Xiao Ran, deeply moved.

"These guys!"

A slight ripple stirred in Xiao Ran's heart.

"I knew Chen Fan would be able to rescue Brother Xiao, and it seems I wasn't wrong!"

Lin Jue rushed to Xiao Ran's side, but then instantly looked at Chen Fan.

"Thank you very much, Brother Chen!"

Lin Jue bowed slightly to Chen Fan.

Although he was older than Chen Fan, he seemed to be placing himself in a rather humble position at this moment.

"Alright, all of you, go inside. We're about to be Annihilation. Are you just going to leave us here waiting for Annihilation to arrive?"

Chen Fan didn't particularly like these details, so he waved his hand and changed the subject.

Oh right, right!

Lin Jue quickly realized what was happening and led Chen Fan and the others back to the Guardian Zone.

Tuo Bashan, who had been slapped into a deep pit by Chen Fan, was also brought in.

"I'm actually quite curious about this Annihilation Period!"

Chen Fan stood in the Guardian Zone. The Annihilation Stele had been infused with a lot of the Myriad Laws Origin Power by Lin Jue, and now it had formed a layer of azure energy barrier.

It instantly enveloped the entire Guardian Zone.

With this layer of azure energy barrier in place, the violent Myriad Laws Origin Power from the outside world could not penetrate in.

However, standing beside the barrier, Chen Fan could clearly feel the Myriad Laws Origin Power between heaven and earth gradually becoming more and more violent.

As time passed, the countdown on the Annihilation Stele finally ended.

Rumble!!

Chen Fan could hear a series of booming sounds, like a terrifying tsunami, suddenly churning outside the Guardian Zone.

The originally formless Myriad Laws Origin Power has turned crimson at this moment, stirring everything between heaven and earth.

It seemed as if it wanted to shatter the entire world.

One wave of red tide after another crashed against the Annihilation Barrier.

You could even see that the barrier was swaying slightly under the impact of the red wave, as if it would shatter at any moment.

"Don't worry, with the Annihilation Stele in place, the Annihilation Barrier won't break. You'll get used to these things!"

Xiao Ran had somehow appeared beside Chen Fan and, thinking Chen Fan was worried about the barrier, explained.

Chen Fan wasn't worried about the barrier breaking. After all, Xiao Ran and the others had stayed here for so long without any problems, so it was impossible for him to be so unlucky as to have it break right away.

Just then, Xiao Ran came over, and Chen Fan turned around and spoke softly.

"Fortunately Annihilation Period still has some time left, so... tell me properly about the rules of this world!"

Xiao Ran was taken aback upon hearing this, and then a complex look appeared in his eyes.

I knew you weren't the patient type!

Xiao Ran smiled and spoke, then said softly.

"As I mentioned before, the Core Zone of the Myriad Laws Source Realm is divided into three regions. However, to be precise, there are a total of thirty-six safe zones within the entire Myriad Laws Source Realm. Excluding the nine safe zones for neutral races, there are twelve safe zones belonging to our Human Federation and its Human Federation races!"

"The remaining fifteen have all been occupied by hostile races of our Human Federation!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Fan raised an eyebrow slightly.

"From this perspective, the Core Zone of the Myriad Laws Source Realm is actually much better than the Organ Refining Region!"

Shen Xuan and his two companions arrived without anyone noticing, and spoke with smiles.

"At least within the Core Zone, the Human Federation still has some territory, but what about the Organ Refining Region..."

Shen Xuan couldn't help but shake his head. If Chen Fan hadn't been able to devour the Source Spirit guarding the spatial passage, they might not have been able to walk out of the Organ Refining Region of the Myriad Laws Source Realm alive.

Not to mention leaving one's name on the Myriad Laws Ranking.

"Therefore, the main conflict between the two sides is through attacks on each other's Guardian Zone."

Xiao Ran nodded and continued to explain.

"The more Guardian Zone you occupy, the larger your territory becomes, allowing you to explore more places of opportunity. Of course, some places of opportunity are scattered throughout ordinary areas, but most of them are located near the Guardian Zone!"

"For example, the Soul-Devouring Abyss is located near our Guardian Zone."

"Adjacent to another hostile Guardian Zone!"

Xiao Ran spoke, Chen Fan and the others showed expressions of understanding.

"So, do you have contact with other Guardian Zone of the Human Federation?"

Chen Fan asked again.

"That's natural. Guardian Zones can communicate with each other through the Annihilation Stele Tablet, as long as the other party agrees."

"When I left the Guardian Zone for the Soul-Devouring Abyss, I instructed Lin Jue that if they were outmatched, they could contact their companions in other Guardian Zones through the Annihilation Stele Tablet."

"Under normal circumstances, the Human Federation would come to provide support from other Guardian Zone if they could, but this time they didn't..."

"It seems the neighboring Guardian Zone have also encountered some trouble!"

When Xiao Ran said these words, his expression was somewhat solemn.

After all, the Guardian Zone where Xiao Ran and his group were located had the weakest strength. The fact that other Guardian Zone couldn't provide support in time meant something that Xiao Ran understood all too well.

Listening to Xiao Ran's words, Chen Fan grasped the key point.

"So, according to you, the more Guardian Zone one occupies, the more places of opportunity one can explore, and the more special Origin Power one can obtain?"

"Forehead..."

Xiao Ran was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

"Logically speaking, that's how it is!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Fan, Shen Xuan, and the other two exchanged glances, immediately understanding what the other was thinking.

Shen Xuan gently shook the folding fan in his hand and spoke with a smile.

"Looks like... another big move is about to happen!"

"Oh ho!! Now we can fight!!"

Tuo Bashan excitedly pounded his chest.

The reactions of the others surprised Xiao Ran.

No, what does that mean?
