National Fortune: Playing Zhongli

Meanwhile, Nobita and the others continued their search for the bell.

The novel items in the Secret Gadget Museum kept Ling Yuan's eyes glued to the ground.

His favorite places to visit are museums that display mysterious items.

It's much faster than collecting them one by one.

After playing for a few more hours, Ling Yuan said goodbye to Da Xiong and the Nobita.

By the time we got back, it was already dark.

Fortunately, Cecilia was able to help by telling Ranran.

He returned home with a full load after his trip, and he put his arm around Xiao Shi as they went back inside.

The next day

Ling Yuan came downstairs.

Then I saw Lestia sitting in a chair at the dining table, elegantly flipping through a book.

On the table was a cup of black tea and some delicate pastries.

"Tia, have a cup of your afternoon tea with me."

Walking up to Lestia, Ling Yuan unabashedly picked up the porcelain cup placed in front of her.

Lestia looked up and quietly watched Ling Yuan finish the black tea he had been drinking earlier.

"Master, it's best to avoid touching women's things."

"But you are a sword."

"..."

Ignoring Lestia's resentful look, Ling Yuan patted her head and sat down on the sofa.

"Next, let me take a look at this."

Dimensional Contract and Modification Cards.

Two items, one red and one orange, were sold from the shop.

A scroll and a card.

"What's this?"

A soft exclamation rang out.

Ling Yuan turned his head, and before he knew it, Lestia had appeared behind him.

She clung to the sofa with both hands, standing on tiptoe as she looked at the two items in Ling Yuan's hands.

"It's kind of a fun thing."

Ling Yuan put away the scroll of [Dimensional Contract] and turned his gaze to the [Modification Card].

The next step is to verify his guess.

"Lestia, come back first."

Lestia was taken aback, slightly puzzled, but still flew into the Demon Armor Imprint.

The Imaginary Space opened, Ling Yuan stepped inside.

When they reappeared, they were already in the woods next to Tianmang City.

"This place still feels so familiar."

Looking around, Ling Yuan saw that the flattened mountains, the half-burned forests, the sinkholes, and other natural disaster-prone terrain were all their masterpieces.

"Next."

Their attention turned to the [Repair Card].

He took out a pen and wrote 504 on 'traveled back to ____ years ago'.

This was two years after the first World Rift appeared.

Hiss~

The card was torn open

In an instant, a blue spatial passage was erected in the void.

"It worked?"

Ling Yuan let out a soft exclamation, reached out his hand, and slipped it inside.

There is no discomfort.

After hesitating for a moment, Ling Yuan went inside.

Boom!

Just as Ling Yuan stepped in, a thunderclap suddenly rang out in the sky.

The spatial passage closed the moment the lightning struck.

Within the space-time tunnel

Ling Yuan appears to be falling from the sky, traversing a time tunnel.

"System."

Seeing himself steadily falling, Ling Yuan shouted.

"Ding! Detection complete. Master's destination will be the Flame Nation 504 years ago."

"It's really true?"

A hint of surprise appeared in Ling Yuan's pupils.

Buzz—

Suddenly, a blue spatial passage appeared in the azure sky.

Immediately afterwards, a man fell down the passageway, plummeting straight downwards!

Ling Yuan's pupils narrowed, and the Wings of the Silver Dragon appeared on his back, stopping his fall and bringing him to a standstill in mid-air.

"Is this the place from five hundred years ago?"

Ling Yuan glanced around and asked himself a question in confusion.

He landed not in a city, but on the vast ocean.

Apart from that, there was no sign of human habitation in the surrounding area.

"Ding! Test complete. This is indeed Blue Star in year 504."

"Ding! A map for traveling to Flame Nation has been prepared for you."

"Was Blue Star still the same size as Earth at this time?" Ling Yuan murmured, looking at the map.

Following the route on the map, Ling Yuan's wings of light flapped, and he flew out as an orange arc of light!

"System, block all signals and prevent satellites from detecting me."

"Yes, Master."

As soon as the system finished speaking, a blue protective shield flashed around Ling Yuan.

"Let's go back to Tianmang City first."

An orange arc of light flew at an extremely high speed in the sky.

However

As he traveled along the way, Ling Yuan's brows furrowed to their deepest point.

The city was completely reduced to ruins, and apart from a few demons, no living people could be detected.

Many flying demons rushed towards Ling Yuan as if they had seen a delicious meal, but they were all killed in one move by the Chains of Heaven.

Five hundred years ago, when demons invaded, did humanity suffer such a fate?

Everywhere smelled of blood mixed with scorched earth.

It can be seen that the reason why cities are in such a state of disrepair is mostly due to human weapons, and many cities even have the intention of mutual destruction.

But the final result was not encouraging.

"Arrive."

After driving for some time, Ling Yuan stopped in a quiet city.

Looking at the ruins below, Ling Yuan remained silent.

It has completely fallen...

Looking around, there was also a ruin.

But that will be his home five hundred years from now.

"Help! Help me!"

Just then, a shout rang out.

Ling Yuan turned his head and saw a man and a woman being chased by more than a dozen wolf-shaped demons in the middle of the road.

People can unleash their potential when they are in despair, but judging by this trend, he will probably die in the wolf's jaws in two minutes.

Ling Yuan's pupils condensed.

In an instant

A halo appeared behind them.

"Xiao Xi, hurry up, faster!" The man in front looked at the pursuing demonic wolf in horror, then glanced at the woman whose speed had slowed down, and shouted loudly.

"Hao Ge, I... I'm about to die."

Xiao Xi said with a look of despair.

She could clearly feel that she had no feeling in her legs and that she could fall at any moment.

Suddenly, a golden light shone.

"What, what is that?"

Xiao Xi looked up at the golden screen filling the sky and exclaimed in surprise.

The wolves were also stunned.

In an instant, countless Noble Phantasm poured down from the King's Treasure!

Bang bang bang!

The earth exploded, and the wolf's flesh and blood flew everywhere.

Under Hao Ge and Xiao Xi's shocked gazes, the demonic wolves that had been chasing them were reduced to pieces of meat that were as dead as could be.

Are you alright?

A voice sounded behind the two of them.

The two were startled.

Turning my head, I saw a figure in a yellow-brown robe.

"Who, who are you?" Hao Ge swallowed hard and shielded Xiao Xi behind him.

"Zhongli".

Ling Yuan pursed his lips and said.

"Mr. Zhongli, are you perhaps the legendary cultivator?"

"What was that move you just used? It was amazing! Can you teach me?"

Do you still accept female apprentices?

"..."
