"That golden Polaris guided me to Flowing Wind City, and told me that in 18 years there would be a great opportunity here, and I should settle down here...

"In the end, that Polaris entered your body. When I checked at the time, I didn't find anything unusual... The only strange thing was that all 54 of your Mystic Gates had been opened..." She paused slightly when she said this.

Hearing this, Xiao Feng instantly thought of the voice he had heard when he met Bing Hanxue not long ago... Could it be... the same one?

"Feng'er! There's something you must listen to me about... You haven't broken through for 12 whole years. I feel that perhaps the opportunity that voice spoke of will be the chance for you to break through to the God Tribulation Realm!"

"So I hope you can stay in Flowing Wind City this year, because this year is the deadline for the 18-year period that voice mentioned."

"..."

When the time comes, even if you successfully break through to the God Tribulation Realm, don't rush to the Vermilion Bird Empire to find me. I am very safe in the Vermilion Bird Empire and there won't be any danger... If your cultivation is not strong enough, and you go to the Vermilion Bird Empire, once you are caught, you will become a handle for them to control me...

Bai Ling'er didn't say not to let Xiao Feng come, because she knew that even if she said it, Xiao Feng wouldn't listen. On the contrary, it might arouse Xiao Feng's worries, so it's better to explain the pros and cons...

"The person who came here to pick me up this time is named Fu Chi Yao. She is a Blue-Robed Envoy of the Creation God Sect. She climbed from an ordinary commoner step by step to her current position, so she has a heart of compassion for the weak that many people don't have..."

"But Feng'er... there are many lunatics in the Creation God Sect. Most of them are almost madly pursuing higher realms of the Mystic Path, especially one faction among them..."

Boom boom boom...

Suddenly, a huge tremor struck, and the tremor directly shook the Mystic Shadow Stone to the ground. The image left by Bai Ling'er disappeared directly before she could finish speaking...

The sudden tremor almost made Xiao Feng fall to the ground, and fortunately Qi Qingyun was next to him to support him so he didn't fall.

Xiao Feng bent down, picked up the Mystic Shadow Stone, and put it away. Although many things were not detailed.

But... the general course of events was already roughly outlined in Xiao Feng's mind.

He was just about to ask Qi Qingyun what had happened when he saw Qi Qingyun staring blankly at the city gate outside the window...

He was a little surprised by Qi Qingyun's expression, and then looked at where Qi Qingyun's gaze was directed, but as soon as he looked over, he was as stunned as Qi Qingyun...

A long silence... Xiao Feng asked with difficulty: "Why is the city protection array open?!"

It should be known that the city protection array will not be easily activated, because each activation requires a lot of Abyssal Stones and Abyssal Crystals, which is a huge expense. It is generally only activated when facing a beast tide, or when facing a disaster that could destroy the city.

Therefore, it has been unknown how many years since Flowing Wind City last activated the city protection array. Xiao Feng had no impression at all, or it had never been used since Flowing Wind City was built!

But this time it was suddenly activated without any notice. Xiao Feng knew from Qi Qingyun's expression that even Qi Qingyun didn't know about it!

For such a huge event as activating the city protection array, the Qi Family had no reason not to notify her, and if Qi Qingyun didn't know, wouldn't that mean that even the Qi Family didn't know about it?

What kind of crisis did they encounter to activate it so suddenly?

"I... don't know..." As Xiao Feng expected, Qi Qingyun really didn't know about such a thing at all.

Then... what is the purpose of this activation?

Looking at the suddenly activated city protection array, Xiao Feng frowned: "Qingyun... do... do you feel that this array is moving?"

He stared at the suddenly activated city protection array, but felt that this array was different from what was described in the ancient books.

Qi Qingyun said: "I also noticed it. The city protection array is actually gathering towards the city, as if it is intentionally shrinking the space in the city... Could it be... to increase the defense of the city protection array?"

She said something that she didn't quite believe herself, but at the moment it seemed to be the only reasonable explanation...

Xiao Feng was about to speak, but suddenly he felt a huge force gradually approaching the direction he was in...

Suddenly Qi Qingyun seemed to sense something and exclaimed: "It's Divine Source, this power is Divine Source!"

"Divine Source? What is that?" Today Xiao Feng has heard the word Divine Source more than once. What exactly is Divine Source?

Qi Qingyun said: "Most of the Divine Source is the source of power left by True Gods when they fell in order to continue their inheritance...

But there are also some True Gods who have passed away without leaving an inheritance, and Divine Source will be left where their divine bodies fall.

But because it is not the Divine Source left by inheritance, but produced after death, it contains extremely terrifying negative emotions and cannot be used at all."

"I see..." Xiao Feng nodded to show his understanding.

"Actually, this kind of Divine Source is strictly speaking impossible to extract, but because the Creation..." Qi Qingyun obviously wanted to add something, but before the words were completely finished, a roar came.

"Boom"

The sudden sound of something slamming into the ground entered their ears, followed by a majestic and powerful Mystic Force pressure and a thick Divine Source power!

Xiao Feng sensed the other party's Mystic Force aura... a very familiar aura, but releasing a terrifying Mystic Might... it's Ximen Qing!

"Xiao Feng, get out here!" Ximen Qing's voice entered Xiao Feng's ears... it really was him!

Qi Qingyun looked at Xiao Feng, and seeing him nod, she walked out with Xiao Feng.

Ximen Qing saw Xiao Feng coming out, with a faint smile on his face, but then he saw Qi Qingyun supporting Xiao Feng next to him.

Suddenly the smile on his face disappeared, followed by a shocked look of astonishment: "Qingyun... you... why are you in Xiao Feng's house!"

"I have already decided to spend the rest of my life with Xiao Feng, and I am not familiar with you..." Qi Qingyun briefly explained the reason.

Hearing this, Ximen Qing was stunned and said anxiously: "Xiao Feng is a waste who can't even break through to the God Tribulation Realm. You won't have a good result following him. We are a match made in heaven!"

"Now I have received the grace of God, and the entire Flowing Wind City will be a sacrifice to crown me, and you... will be my Divine Empress!"

As soon as the words fell, the Mystic Force around him instantly surged—Boom!

The majestic Mystic Might was released, which was clearly the Mystic Might of the God King Realm peak!

"God... King!" Xiao Feng uttered with difficulty.

Just a few days ago, he was only at God Spirit Realm level 10, but now he had skyrocketed to God King Realm level 10 at an unreasonable speed!

A whole major realm and ten minor realms crossed in one go—how was that possible!

Qi Qingyun frowned, looking at Ximen Qing, whose aura was chaotic, and said, "You are a member of the Creation God Sect!"

Ximen Qing was stunned for a moment upon hearing Qi Qingyun's words, then he reacted and said, "That's right... I forgot that you are now a Follower Knight... Then you should know the power of the Creation God Sect...

Now I have received the grace of the Divine Sect, and my future will be limitless. So... I am the right match for you... Qing Yun!"

Looking at Ximen Qing, whose eyes were bloodshot, Qi Qingyun said sternly, "Ximen Qing, haven't you realized yet? You are being used. The directly extracted Divine Source cannot be used directly. The Divine Source you absorbed carries the resentment of the dead True God. If you continue to absorb it, you will become possessed and explode!"

"Qing Yun... you're lying to me... I will prove it to you with facts!" The Divine Source extracted in an instant surged madly into Ximen Qing's body!

"Ahhhhh!"

As the Divine Source entered Ximen Qing's body, he let out a miserable scream. Then... bang... the sound of shackles breaking appeared. Ximen Qing's Mystic Force actually changed again. At this moment, the Mystic Force he released was impressively at the God Monarch Realm level 3!

"Qing Yun... did you see that? I'm perfectly fine! Hahaha! This is the Divine Sect's gift! Hahahaha!"

Xiao Feng felt the majestic Mystic Force around Ximen Qing and looked at Qi Qingyun in astonishment, only to see that she also had a dazed expression as she looked at Ximen Qing, who had broken through in cultivation. Clearly, she had not expected this result...

"Could it be that the Knight Lord was wrong?" Qi Qingyun murmured in a low voice. For the first time, she questioned what the Abyssal Knight had told her. How could this be completely different from what she had been told?

"Come on... Qing Yun, throw yourself into my arms. When I become a True God, you will still be my Divine Empress. And Xiao Feng will only be a stepping stone for me!"

Qi Qingyun took a step forward and protected Xiao Feng behind her, saying, "Haven't you felt it yet? You're already crazy. It's not too late to stop now."

"I'm not crazy! How could I be crazy!" Ximen Qing looked at Qi Qingyun, who was standing in front of Xiao Feng, with a fierce expression. "Do you like a useless man who can only cower behind a woman and can't break through?"

Xiao Feng was about to step forward when he heard this, but Qi Qingyun stretched out her arm to stop him. "Don't go over. Although I don't know why he can continue to bear the Divine Source, his mind has been eroded by the Divine Source."

"This time, let me protect you!"

"I..." Xiao Feng was about to speak, but seeing Qi Qingyun's solemn expression, he silently retreated behind her... He knew that with his current cultivation, he couldn't do anything at all...

Looking at the two people who were acting as if he didn't exist, Ximen Qing said fiercely, "It seems you're not willing... Then forget it... You'll watch me cripple Xiao Feng with my own hands in a moment, and then you'll know who is the most worthy person to entrust yourself to!"

Boom!

The ground around Ximen Qing directly cracked. His figure burst forth, and he slashed fiercely at Xiao Feng with the Ice Soul Sword in his hand. The icy blue sword aura came head-on.

Clang! Sizzle...

Qi Qingyun's eyes flashed with cold light, and the long sword in her hand appeared, carrying a pure white sword light that collided fiercely with the Ice Soul Sword. The powerful impact caused a violent hurricane... Her hair danced wildly in the hurricane.

Bang!

The brief confrontation ended, and Qi Qingyun was directly blasted away for several miles.

On the other hand, Ximen Qing only took a few steps back, which showed the current gap in strength between the two sides.

But Ximen Qing didn't have any joy at all, and his expression was as uncomfortable as if he had eaten shit.

Qi Qingyun, who had been blasted away, was firmly embraced by Xiao Feng to cushion the impact...

Xiao Feng looked at Qi Qingyun in his arms and said, "Are you not injured? Now Ximen Qing has advanced to the God Monarch Realm, which is beyond what we can contend with. Let's go back to the Qi Family and find the Qi Family Head."

Qi Qingyun shook her head and said, "Ximen Qing won't let us leave. I'll hold him back, and you go find my adoptive father."

"No, I absolutely disagree. If anyone is going to hold him back... it'll be me!"

"... A pair of lovebirds on the run still have time to flirt!" Ximen Qing's face twitched and said, "Then you can die together!"

Ps: If you guys see some chapters that are incomprehensible or the plot is very poisonous while reading.

If some words feel extremely dissuasive, you can directly post comments in the book.

There are not many people reading this book now, so I will read all of your posts.

There is a premise that it must be on Qimao or Zongheng... otherwise I can't see it. "Sniffles, medicine costs 39.9 for 20 pills...

I'm not worthy..."
