Chapter 250

Bai Yan looked around, but couldn't see anything.

The mask on his face suddenly disappeared, for reasons unknown.

Upon careful sensing, no power or anything else was found left behind by the mask.

--Perhaps Aha only gave him a hand. After all, He still wanted to watch the show.

"Those things on my body have disappeared,"

He patted himself down, relieved. "Alright, what just happened? Oh right, the Medicine King's Compassion extended my life again. I have no way to repay you but to clean house for you."

"I wonder what's going on outside... Tsk tsk, giving me a mask to shield me from arrows, probably because they found watching these two fight interesting. But there's still a problem here, why did Abundance save me?"

The next moment, a muffled voice, indistinct in gender, came to my ears.

"World..."

What does "the world" have to do with the world?

Bai Yan pondered for a moment, and then came to a guess.

Does this mean that recreating Pre-Civilization Era in the universe, making it an independent world, is also a form of healing?

One can only construct a temporary, false world by relying solely on one's own strength.

But that plan utilized forces beyond that, even including the "remnants" of Pre-Civilization.

Bai Yan nodded slightly. "That makes sense... I was backfired by some kind of law of the Imaginary Tree, like Otto; but the Abundance felt it wouldn't do and came to protect me; then a certain Lan, who wished to remain anonymous, saw the Abundance pull out an arrow... Hmm, reasonable."

--Reasonable my foot!

"Forget about the logic for now, the reality is that I've survived... temporarily."

It's very quiet here, but there's a bit of a commotion outside.

The Hyperdimensional Space has already merged with itself, and it has not been attempted to be opened since then.

Give it a try.

Bai Yan immediately sat cross-legged on the spot, closed his eyes, and began to sense.

A moment later.

"Can't open..."

Just then, the surrounding darkness was gradually broken by a crack.

Light streamed in through the crack, as if scrutinizing everything around.

Bai Yan panicked.

Why is this Abundance so brittle?

What should I do now?

The cracks began to spread, and light shone into them, allowing Bai Yan to even see the lines on his palm.

Bai Yan sat cross-legged again and closed his eyes.

We need to think of another way!

The former Hyperdimensional Space has been merged with my own, so it seems it cannot be opened using the methods of the past.

Consciousness sinks into the depths of the soul; the gate is no longer visible, only the soul itself remains.

But Bai Yan quickly realized the problem.

"The Phase World Technique..."

He immediately formed a hand seal with his fingers together, pointing one finger at the crack in front of him.

With a surge of power, Bai Yan vanished from his spot.

Then, a tiny speck of light, so small it was almost invisible, floated gently out of the crack, flashed briefly, and vanished in the blink of an eye.

As if sensing Bai Yan's disappearance, the giant hands gently opened and flipped open, their palms facing the continuously falling golden arrows. After blocking them for a while, they too vanished without a trace.

Soon, the golden arrow disappeared, leaving only the towering tree in the darkness.

Within the Phase World, Bai Yan atop a mountain peak, gazing into the distance, yet seeing no scenery beyond.

"Let me see where Master is now. Without coordinates, I can't go there; this limitation has been completely inherited."

As soon as the words were spoken, the scenery of the Phase World changed instantly, with mountains and rivers rising and falling, and the sun and moon alternating, as if time was passing at an accelerated pace.

Not long after, Bai Yan flipped his hand and pressed down, and everything flowing within the Phase World came to an abrupt halt.

Then, the phase world dissipated.

He stepped onto a hard floor, surrounded by Cloud Knights Guards.

Fu Xuan stared at him with a strange look in his eyes, while Jing Yuan's eyelids twitched.

Behind Bai Yan, Jingliu slowly spoke.

"Is it over?"

"Yes, it's a successful completion."

Bai Yan turned to her and nodded, "I encountered a little trouble before coming, but it's nothing serious."

Jingliu nodded, assuming nothing had happened.

Suddenly, everything fell silent.

Bai Yan glanced around and saw that there were quite a few Cloud Knights Guards, and they were facing each other with swords drawn. He roughly understood what was going on.

This is a bit tricky; it seems like Jingliu deliberately created this situation.

Just as he was pondering how to begin, Fu Xuan spoke up softly.

"The trouble you're talking about, could it be that the Yeasty Pestilence Ancestor has bestowed upon you a blessing from an Emanator?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, everyone present tensed up instantly. Except for Jingliu and Fu Xuan, they all took a step back and turned their gazes to Jing Yuan.

"First of all, I have no connection with the Abundance."

Bai Yan immediately raised his hands, "Secondly, He came to me of his own accord; I, a mere mortal, couldn't refuse."

Jing Yuan sized him up for a moment, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He then said to the others, "It's alright. He is indeed the new Emanator of Abundance, but another kind of power can eliminate negative effects like demonic yin... Could it be related to the spring water you brought out?"

Bai Yan nodded. "A little."

Jing Yuan looked around and found that a large crowd had gathered, completely surrounding the corner of the Xianzhou Alliance.

He pondered for a moment, then gave Fu Xuan a look.

The latter understood and ordered, "Take him to the Divination Department."

The Cloud Knights Guards received the order but did not dare to step forward immediately. Only after Jing Yuan nodded did they cautiously approach Bai Yan from both sides and attach the chains.

Soon after, Bai Yan and Jingliu were taken to the Divination Department.

Under Matrix of Prescience, lies have nowhere to hide.

Seeing this, Bai Yan felt much more at ease, and even wished he could record the whole scene he had just witnessed and show it to the audience.

The interrogation continued.

"So, the next question,"

Jing Yuan still didn't draw his weapon, and continued to ask, "What is the reason that the Yeasty Pestilence Ancestor took the initiative to find you?"

"Perhaps He thought a project I had previously participated in was very much to His liking."

Bai Yan then briefly explained the plan.

Fu Xuan's mouth gaped slightly, then she asked incredulously, "It's not simply ending the eternal cycle of reincarnation?!"

"If it were just that kind of thing, there would be no need for all this trouble."

Bai Yan said.

Jing Yuan recovered from his shock, sighed after a moment, and said, "Although I believe your testimony is sound, anyone on the Xianzhou Alliance closely connected to the Yeasty Pestilence Ancestor cannot be ignored..."

Fu Xuan's expression turned expressionless. "The Prison of Isolation can't hold this kid, unless you lock up Penacony's Nightingale and me too."

"Um?"

"He has the ability to teleport to the side of any registered member in any Hyperdimensional Space; and so far, it seems that neither the Emperor Bow nor the Abundance have stopped him. It's just unclear whether they let him go intentionally or were truly unable to stop him."

"..."

Bai Yan maintained a serious expression.

--Laughing my head off, do I look like Emanator of Abundance? Would Emanator of Abundance not smell like filth?

An eerie silence fell over the scene once again.

After a short while, Bai Yan realized this wasn't right, so he broke the silence.

"General, how about this? You let my master and me go. Then I'll go find the Hunt from other Xianzhou Alliance Emanator skills—I feel like I'm brimming with power right now!"

Jing Yuan: "?"

Fu Xuan: "?"

Bai Yan patiently explained, "Look, if I go out and beat up all the other Seven Banners of the Emperor Bow, wouldn't that make General Jing Yuan seem incredibly capable? That way, we can save face for everyone and maintain the Xianzhou Alliance's stance."

"Besides, look at my face. Even if I become the Emanator of Abundance, I'll be a secret warrior infiltrating the enemy camp, completely different from that ugly thing called Shuhu!"

The crowd looked at him strangely, listening to his ramblings, feeling that the interrogation was nothing short of a farce.

Even Jingliu, standing to the side, twitched his lips and a smile appeared in his eyes.

"You've only just Emanator and you're already starting a rebellion? You're far more capable than Shuhu."

Fu Xuan said coldly.

"You know my capabilities; such turmoil is impossible."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan recalled Bai Yan's Cave Heaven Technique.

It seems he can also use the cave as a sword, and his integrated offensive and defensive fighting style shows no obvious weaknesses.

"Fu Qing, what kind of ability is he referring to?"

"When I saw it, it was only in its embryonic stage."

"But if we do a simple deduction, and consider the power of his destiny at this moment..."

Fu Xuan took a deep breath and said, "It should be based on the real world, creating many Parallel World through various possibilities of evolution, and then controlling them to fight against enemies. This is one of them."

"One of them?"

"He learned swordsmanship from his master when he was still young. Presumably, this power has already been integrated into his sword."

"..."

It didn't take long, but Jing Yuan had already figured out the situation.

The question now is how to deal with the immediate problem.

Bai Yan remained calm and composed.

He had just figured out the abilities after the fusion of the Hyperdimensional Space, and also figured out the level of his current power.

Self-preservation is not a problem, and even the Jingliu can be protected if needed. The Executioner's Field technique is just a matter of using Phase World Technique.

If I can't beat them, I can't just run away!

I'll give you a whole bunch of countless fictional worlds to figure out and fight through slowly. I'm going first.

With his mind at ease, Bai Yan's next thought was where to go.

Let's not go back to Earth for now; the situation is a bit awkward, we need to take it slow.

--Where to? Belobog or Penacony? Hmm, Penacony, I guess. I'll ask the Nightingale if he can help me hide.

Chapter 291 You've Savior, can't you at least enjoy yourself?

Divination Department was caught in an awkward atmosphere, while Bai Yan seemed to be completely detached from it.

At this moment, Jingliu turned to Bai Yan and said, "Xiao Yan, don't worry about this. I have my own plans. You've done what you were supposed to do, so relax. I'll be fine. I'll come find you once things are settled here."

She remained calm and composed when discussing her own issues, as if she were explaining to her children that she was going on a business trip.
