The Carefree Boat Trembles
The man was forced to lie face down on the ground. The fact that he was still an extraordinary being in this era was enough to show that he had a powerful foundation in the past.
Then, he was able to move again and started kowtowing repeatedly, saying things that were completely insincere and without thinking.
"Qin Cheng... Brother, congratulations! May you have a long and happy marriage, and many children. I've had too much to drink, but I'm truly overjoyed. I wish you all the best..."
He was sweating profusely, trying to break free from this state, but his mouth was completely "out of control," uttering a whole bunch of auspicious words and blessings.
Many people were stunned. Who was this person? This was too polite. Was it really necessary to be so "prostrate" when congratulating a newlywed couple on their wedding?
This area was once so quiet you could hear a pin drop, it was impossible not to attract attention.
"Could it be some internet celebrity trying to ride the wave of popularity? They'll use any trick they want," someone remarked.
Only those nearby knew that the person lying on the ground banging their head against the ground was probably in more pain than anyone else, and it was definitely not involuntary; they were probably already suffering terribly.
Those around Wang Xuan, in particular, witnessed the whole thing and were filled with a mixture of surprise, delight, and apprehension.
They knew very well what this meant; it was enough to prove that Wang Xuan was still an Earth Immortal, capable of making a powerful Supernatural Practitioner bow down in worship with a mere thought.
This is Qin Cheng's wedding, and it can't be made bloody. So, Wang Xuan punished him directly to teach him a lesson.
Wang Xuan knew very well that this was a test from the two founders of the Supernatural Palace and the Gouchen Imperial Palace. Their sudden question about Fang Yuzhu's whereabouts was indeed quite unexpected.
Even he was surprised and somewhat doubtful. Could there really have been some unexpected incident in the Supernatural Light Sea? The two progenitors had deserted in the face of battle, and were they also wondering if the others had retreated?
The two powerful figures who had preserved their Earth Immortal Dao Fruit, holding supreme treasures in their hands, were so wary that they didn't dare to show themselves.
Wang Xuan felt that this should be used to make them suspicious and prevent them from approaching the Old Earth for a while, otherwise he would be under a lot of pressure.
He needs time to resolve his own problems.
Of course, the most important thing is that he There Are Supreme Treasures in his possession, which is the most serious problem. Even in this era, the Carefree Boat can still be powerful.
"That's going too far. Get up quickly. Sending blessings is fine, but why are you kneeling on the ground and kowtowing? Qin Cheng can't accept such a grand gesture," Qin Cheng's father quickly said, and had someone help him up.
The wedding continued; this was just a minor incident. Afterwards, amidst the clinking of glasses, many distinguished guests gathered for the wedding, engaging in lively conversation, and the atmosphere became increasingly harmonious.
"Wang Xuan." Huang Ming walked over, somewhat excited. He had tried to visit Wang Xuan several times, but had been stopped by Qing Mu.
Wang Xuan smiled and nodded, then clinked glasses briefly and wished him a prosperous business.
Although Huang Ming had long accepted reality, the business of Zh Xian Tea House was indeed good, but it was still somewhat bitter. He was close to becoming an Earth Immortal back then, and there were quite a few Demon Immortals in his family.
But now, he has become a mortal, and there are few extraordinary individuals left in his clan.
Fortunately, he was shaped early on, so it's impossible for him to revert to his original form.
"Is there any new path to take? In truth, if there were a new myth, a New World, I would be willing to give up everything in this mortal realm," he whispered.
Wang Xuan shook his head. He himself had problems, so where was he going to find a new Supernatural World?
"Okay, it's good that I've come to terms with it. This era is pretty good. In another year or two, I might get married. If I invite you then, please don't refuse," Huang Ming said with relief.
"No problem." Wang Xuan nodded and comforted him, "Humans are emotional beings. As long as you get rid of those emotions and those obsessions, there are so many beautiful things in the world. Without the extraordinary, you might feel that you are living a better life."
"It's easier said than done. It's not so easy to not feel down. It takes time to heal everything." Qi Liandao, who had a history of schizophrenia, also came, holding a wine glass, looking slightly dejected.
He had a female companion beside him, who was clearly not a cultivator but a person from the mortal world, and she only had eyes for him.
"We will all gradually adapt to this special era," Wang Xuan said. He thought of the Demon Ancestor Qi Yi, a great villain, who had entrusted him with the task of looking after Zi Qi Liandao if possible before he passed away.
Qi Yi was one of the most powerful demons, and he wasn't close to Wang Xuan. However, for the sake of his descendants, he humbled himself and begged Wang Xuan. Such is the heart of a parent.
Wang Xuan could glean insights into the mindset of some young extraordinary individuals from the performances of Huang Ming and Qi Liandao alone: they were unwilling to accept reality.
"Wang Xuan, you're still an Earth Immortal, how can you still maintain such a Dao Fruit?" Zhou Qinghuang arrived, dressed in formal attire, wearing glasses, looking quiet and beautiful, not at all like a demon.
Beside her, Gu Mingxi was also exceptionally beautiful and quite stunning. The two of them always walked together and were among the most famous fairies in the immortal realm.
"I'm just barely holding on," Wang Xuan said.
They didn't believe it, but they didn't want to pry into his secrets. They were amazed that he could keep breaking through in this era and maintain his status as an Earth Immortal.
"We don't think the Supernatural Finale is a big deal. The present world is New World for us, a very novel experience," Zhou Qinghuang said.
She told Wang Xuan that she, Gu Mingxi, and Zhou Shiqian had formed a new group and had been debuting as artists for some time.
"Currently, we are doing alright, but we are a little scared. We have lost our supernatural powers and magic. Although our physique is far superior to that of ordinary people, we are still worried. If anything happens in the future, you will have to take care of us." She had heard some messy things and was afraid of those "unspoken rules".
Wang Xuan touched his temple and finally nodded.
He contacted these people to understand their current situation and mindset. What surprised him the most was that the once-prodigy, Mo Si, was having the worst time, was somewhat decadent, and was in an unusually low mood.
This person, who is said to be the most talented among demonic cultivators in recent history, is very out of place in this era. His visit to Wang Xuan represents a group of "fallen people" who, like him, cannot let go of mythology but cannot find a way out.
Wang Xuan could only offer words of comfort and promised that if a new path was found, he would explain it to them in detail, and if New World were to be found, he would take them with him.
He could sense that those who truly devoted themselves to the path of cultivation were not doing well in the Real World, far less so than Huang Ming and his ilk.
"Some of the most powerful figures, who could have become new tycoons, didn't come today," Huang Ming said. He added that those people had been involved in the business world for a long time and were doing quite well.
Many people wanted to meet Wang Xuan and observe his state of mind through this wedding. In fact, Wang Xuan also wanted to understand the mentality and situation of extraordinary people in this era through the microcosm of these people.
The wedding was a great success, with all parties being very friendly and giving generous gifts. Some even reached a cooperation agreement with Qin Cheng's father, making it a happy occasion for everyone.
Many people know that this is all because Wang Xuan is still a powerful Earth Immortal, possessing immense intimidating power. If he were weakened, the situation would be entirely different.
Many people hoped that he would retain his extraordinary Dao Fruit, become even stronger, and forge a new path. Naturally, there were also a few who were hostile, but they immediately backed down after seeing that someone had tested him and found out the result.
In the universe, a massive spaceship floated, and the two founders of the Supernatural Palace and Gouchen Imperial Palace remained silent, like two ancient and eternal Divine Statue.
In this era, only they dare to make things difficult for the Earth Immortals!
But they were very cautious, otherwise they wouldn't have survived until now. However, it was precisely because they lacked their former courage that they became deserters at the last moment and fled from Guanghai.
At the same time, they were being overly cautious today.
If it were Shang Yi, he would have descended upon the Old Earth directly and taken a strong stance against Wang Xuan.
The two founders always felt that there might still be unpredictable powerful beings remaining in this world, and if they caused a great disturbance, they would become prey.
"Did Fang Yuzhu and Yan Mingcheng leave or not?" This is their biggest worry right now. They sent someone to test them roughly today to carefully observe Wang Xuan's first reaction and draw a conclusion.
In the evening, Wang Xuan and Zhao Qinghan left without a long chat, as he was pressed for time.
The Carefree Boat is no ordinary treasure; it comes and goes Ying trace, traversing the void. Now that it is in the hands of two great Earth Immortals, it feels like a mountain pressing down on his heart.
"Aren't you in a very dangerous situation now?" Chen Yongjie asked, having already returned to the manor in the suburbs.
"Don't worry, in this era, if they act recklessly, they will surely die a terrible death." Wang Xuan remained silent, not saying more.
"Is there really someone who has never traveled far?" Qing Mu's eyes widened.
"Don't make wild guesses," Wang Xuan said.
He did it on purpose, misleading and confusing those around him. Because those two Earth Immortals are so cautious, if they were to actually appear, they would most likely seek confirmation from multiple sources.
If they start with Qing Mu and Chen Yongjie, they'll probably be shocked.
That night, Wang Xuan's spirit left his body to carefully sense things, and then he entered the extinguished Immortal Realm to dig up his spoils of war, taking out the materials used by the creators of the Ghost Spirit and Great Demon Fetus Technique to set up the killing array.
These were the accumulated treasures of two powerful figures in the Immortal Realm, all Rare Strange Item. Wang Xuan buried them underground in his residence overnight, setting up the First Killing Array.
This is extremely extravagant. He uses the Good Fortune True Crystal as a source to provide extraordinary power, and once the killing array is activated, the consumption is naturally astonishing.
In this era, perhaps only he can set up the First Killing Array. Where else can others use Good Fortune True Crystal? Even if they have a few, they must keep them to Extend Life their own path to transcendence.
Meanwhile, Wang Xuan was researching whether these strange objects could be refined into an array diagram that could be carried around, which would be much more convenient.
Unfortunately, after spending three days and three nights researching feasible methods, he had a few more gray hairs at his temples and was not confident of success, feeling that he might ruin a bunch of strange items.
He consulted various ancient texts and discovered that some people had tried to do this before, but failed, wasting countless rare Heavenly Treasures.
According to that record, crafting the diagram for the First Killing Array is no less difficult than crafting a supreme treasure; in fact, it requires even more rare Heavenly Treasures.
"It's too difficult!" Wang Xuan sighed.
Because, as mentioned by the ancients, the most effective method is to integrate a supreme treasure into the array diagram, and then supplement it with other Innate Strange Item, which makes it possible to refine it.
Upon seeing this part, he was utterly speechless. If you don't even have a supreme treasure, then don't even dream of refining an array diagram.
"Actually, the Ascension Banner is quite good. Anyone who comes into contact with it will suffer a bloody disaster. It is most suitable for integration into the Killing Array Diagram."
During this period, Zhao Qinghan, Wu Yin, Zhou Kun, Su Chan and others came, but Wang Xuan was under pressure and researching killing formations, so he only sat with them briefly.
On the fifth day, Wang Xuan was not in good spirits and felt that he would be sleeping for a while longer.
On that day, Guan Lin gave birth to a son and a daughter. Chen Yongjie was so happy and excited that he almost shouted it to the whole world. This also forced Wang Xuan to force himself to come out and send his blessings.
A group of friends rushed over, wanting to say that he had a child late in life, but in the end they all held back and offered their best wishes.
Late at night, outside the Old Earth, a massive spaceship arrived in the deep space of the universe. The two founders of the Supernatural Palace and the Gouchen Imperial Palace had been carefully studying it for many days and finally decided to come and see it for themselves.
With the Carefree Boat in hand, they felt they could escape even if they encountered Fang Yuzhu and Yan Mingcheng. They would always have a lingering worry if they didn't figure things out.
A streak of light appeared, entered the Old Earth, and silently approached Ancheng. Two great masters arrived riding their supreme treasures!
The sky was filled with stars, time seemed to blur, and the void was distorted. They stood on the Carefree Boat, approaching the manor, their faces indifferent.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
A terrifying killing intent surged into the sky, and dazzling patterns spread, illuminating the night sky and engulfing the Carefree Boat.
"A killing formation? No, it's the aura of a supreme treasure! Run!"
The two men's expressions changed. They steered the Carefree Boat and vanished from their spot with a whoosh, disappearing into the sky. This boat truly lived up to its reputation as a treasure capable of traversing the starry sea, still possessing terrifying speed even in this era.
Both powerful figures were astonished. How There Are Supreme Treasures?
Most importantly, the Carefree Boat was trembling slightly, as if it were somewhat afraid.
"Fang Yuzhu and Yan Mingcheng really didn't leave!" They escaped, rushing into outer space. Soon after, the huge spaceship disappeared into the wormhole.
The two founders were filled with gloom and dared not stop. They fled far away, their hearts filled with unease and anxiety.
"Did they really not leave? Otherwise, how could There Are Supreme Treasures?" They were certain that they could sense it faintly.
Most importantly, the Carefree Boat was trembling, as if it were in fear.
On the massive spaceship, the two stared at the shrunk-to-the-palm-length Carefree Boat. On its bottom was a pit the size of a date pit, a mark left from ancient times. It was unknown which treasure had caused the damage.
The slight trembling of the Carefree Boat was mostly related to this.
"With that soaring killing intent, another supreme treasure has been resurrected. It is about to attack the treasure ship again, so it is afraid!" The two progenitors looked extremely grim.
