"Dao Manifestation Era Earth Change Theory," the Minister of Agriculture's Ambition, Changing Heaven and Earth!

The banquet hosted by Lords Peng Ao, Niu Hong, Yin Er for Zhao Xing was originally scheduled to last a year, but Zhao Xing did not intend to stay that long.

He was concerned about the Great Zhou and the North River Army; how could he continue to enjoy himself here?

After getting to know Yuan Xin, the Fate Officials in Lord Buming, and Lord Liqing, the Historical Scholar, he made a brief appearance at the department where he was concurrently serving and then left.

Outside the Shenchen Fourteenth Pass, inside the Realm Boat of the Wildcat.

"Grand Minister of Agriculture, our dynasty has dispatched a total of 5,265 Third Realm and 3 Dao Domain Realm this time."

"We will act in the name of the Beihe Legion Wuye Fengdu Army, led by Grand Commandant, Ji Si, and King Luo Hou, and head to Wangliang Upper Star Region in Langping Dao."

There are three main objectives.

"One is to explore Life-Bearing World Star with a spiritual energy index between 10 and 100, and then occupy or bring them back for sale."

"Second, we need to explore areas with valuable mineral resources."

"Thirdly, the Agriculture Ministry Outer Office and the Shipping Office will jointly establish the Great Zhou Commerce Association, with Ling Tianchen and Meng Kun in charge. It will mainly cooperate with the Wuye Military Market Office of the Beihe Legion, but the specific charter has not yet been finalized."

"Furthermore, the Grand Commandant wanted to add more combat missions, but His Majesty rejected it and sent me to inquire about your opinion."

After Chen Yu Lesser Agriculture Decree, finished his report, he waited to the side.

Zhao Xing sat in his chair, lightly raising his finger to signal the clerk beside him to take notes. "The Great Zhou is following the Beihe Legion. The spiritual energy areas in the Si Yue Desolate Territory are scattered here and there; there aren't many places where Life-Bearing World Star appear. The target is set too high."

Conflicts with the other units of the Beihe Legion are inevitable; we cannot act out of gratitude.

"Lower the target in the exploration strategy a bit, Life-Bearing World Star with a Spirituality Index of 10-50 is fine."

"If the Beihe Legion eats meat, we can have some soup. If there is danger, the Great Zhou will not suffer serious damage."

"The development has only just begun, and it's all dangerous with few opportunities. We should prioritize stability." You should pass this message on to King Luo Hou.

Zhao Xing gestured to Chen Yu.

"Yes." Chen Yu understood that the Grand Minister of Agriculture was trying to dissuade King Luo Hou from expanding the war mission.

"As for business, Great Zhou will take whatever job the Wuye Military Market Office gives him, he doesn't pick and choose. As long as there's work to do and money to be made, that's fine."

As for mining valuable mineral veins, there's not much to say. There's not much of anything good to mine in the early stages of the Si Yue Desolate Territory.

Furthermore, in many situations within the Desolate Territory, it is impossible to store items into Internal World or ordinary storage artifacts.

Therefore, Great Zhou only intended to act as a middleman, and the mechanisms Magic Array, and puppet battle spirits prepared by Lu Ying were all geared towards transportation.

The Great Zhou currently possesses three special and precious Realm Boat: the Vast Domain, Limitless, and Immeasurable, all of which are large in size and have enhanced transport Realm Boat.

Seeing that Zhao Xing had no further instructions, Chen Yu withdrew and began to arrange specific matters.

After leaving the pass and entering the Si Yue Desolate Territory, the function of the Star Mirror was greatly reduced, the array signal was intermittent and the delay was very high, so Zhao Xing went to the collection room inside the Realm Boat.

"The Sea Trade Envoy has great power and heavy responsibilities. Since something strange has happened at Layered World Mountain, it won't be long before this mission appears on the list of merits."

"Completing tasks will earn you Merit Points, which can be used to exchange for resources."

"These are merits that are used by multiple factions, and they are much more valuable than the merits in my previous life."

In the previous life, only the Red Star Empire and the Ancient Hill of Antiquity cooperated, so Merit Points were only valid in the Ancient Hill of Antiquity and the Red Star Empire.

Members of the Ancient Hill of Antiquity can exchange for Divine Soldier weapons, cultivation techniques, resources, and even territories Nobility Title that they do not possess but the Red Star Empire does, and vice versa.

Now, the super powers are not only the Empire and the Ancient Hill of Antiquity, but also the Desolate Territory Ancient Kingdoms Alliance, the Reincarnation Temple, the Origin Heavenly Palace, and the Academy City.

One type of merit can be exchanged for valuable items from all factions!

Zhao Xing certainly couldn't let such a great opportunity slip by.

"According to the calendar established by the Time Faction in the Xuanling Star Domain."

"This is the 1194th Solar Year of the Desolate Territory Era 2. In six more Solar Year, it will be the third era of the Desolate Territory."

"According to the World Star Year (Profound Yellow Calendar), there are still 5985 years left."

"When we were opening up the Sea Passage Ancient Road, we encountered many difficulties. The Layered World Mountain Change Incident is the one that left the deepest impression on me."

"

"The problem of Layered World Mountain change, which should have occurred in the 1195th Solar Year, may have occurred earlier than expected due to the involvement of multiple forces and the accelerated progress of the project."

Zhao Xing simultaneously opened ten thousand Dao Book, then took out a blank Dao Book and placed it in front of him.

"As expected, what happened at the Ancient Hill of Antiquity was not some strange event, but rather the [Earth Epoch Cataclysm].

Natural disasters and geological changes are both calamities and mutations that occur in the heavens and earth.

In layman's terms, natural disasters.

When the Agricultural Official manages the environment, he often encounters windstorms and insect plagues, which are both natural disasters.

Earthquakes, disturbances in the earth's atmosphere, and the displacement of mountains and rivers are all considered geological changes.

In the cosmic version, the disasters did not disappear, but became more complex.

Mountains now exist in the void, making the environment more complex, and consequently, the disasters themselves become more complex.

"[Earth Epoch Cataclysm] is a relatively rare type of disaster. In the current Earthly Advantage Faction school of thought, there are very few Dao Book that explain the nature of Earth Epoch Cataclysm, and there are also very few effective solutions."

"I made copies of many books before I left the Primordial Beginning Realm, but there are still only more than seven million copies."

Splash~ Splash~

The pages turned rapidly.

Theoretical Dao Book do not increase combat power, but Zhao Xing has liked reading such Dao Book in both his past and present lives.

Firstly, I like it, and secondly, it makes completing tasks much smoother.

Now he is reviewing the knowledge he learned in his previous life.

Learning is such a fun thing, of course I should share it with my best buddies.

Not long after, Chen Shijie also appeared in the museum.

"Chen Shijie pays his respects to the Grand Minister of Agriculture."

Zhao Xing opened his eyes, a smile playing on his lips, "Chen Shijie, you only cupped your hands in greeting without bowing to the Grand Minister of Agriculture, you have quite the nerve!"

Chen Shijie straightened his sleeves and rolled his eyes. "That's enough. Why don't you just tell me to kowtow?"

"Hahaha, come in quickly." Zhao Xing laughed and waved.

What are you looking for?

"We invite you to enjoy a feast of knowledge!"

Chen Shijie glanced at the Dao Book floating in mid-air.

The names of various Earthly Advantage Faction Dao Book, such as "Treatise on Earth Eras," "History of Middle Antiquity Earth-Vein Changes," "Grand Survey of Star Continents," and "Classic of World Mountains," flashed before my eyes.

"Huh? So many!" Chen Shijie's eyes lit up. "So many—I've never seen any of them before!"

"Haha, I knew you'd like it." Zhao Xing was very pleased with Xiao Chen's expression.

"Where did you get this?" Chen Shijie picked up a book, his eyes filled with fascination, but his movements were very gentle.

"Of course, it's the Primordial Beginning Realm."

"It's a pity that there aren't many Daoist Dao Book that record the principles of law, and niche and obscure ones are even harder to find. We've only found a few million."

"You haven't seen it because the Star Territory doesn't include it."

"Why?" Chen Shijie asked subconsciously.

"Firstly, it's not easy to collect obscure and niche Dao Book."

"Secondly, it's the prejudice against different sects."

Zhao Xing pointed to these books and said:

"The Primordial Beginning Realm has collected many specific spells of the Earthly Advantage Faction. However, there are not many Daoist Dao Book that record the principles of these spells."

"When it comes to the debate over theoretical ideas, both the Ancient Hill of Antiquity and the Primordial Beginning Realm adopt the attitude of only using your magic, not learning your ideas."

Chen Shijie suddenly realized, and then said, "To be fair, the Primordial Beginning Realm's attitude is quite open; at least you can still find so many."

"The Great Dao Contention is a struggle over the right to interpret the Dao."

Zhao Xing nodded. "Yes, the various Agricultural Official each have their own interpretation of the universe."

"The True Self Faction' divides the universe, realms, and domains into four periods: the Primordial Chapter, the origin, the myriad phenomena, and the Annihilation Chapter. Through observing the universe, they demonstrate the manifestation of the Great Dao in different periods."

"This led to the development of a True Self, which involves cultivating pure Pure Origin Soil, nurturing the Source Origin Space, and opening the Internal World."

"Many people consider this kind of cultivation method, which Internal World, to be a fallacy."

"You're underestimating me; it's clearly heresy," Chen Shijie said with a laugh. "Not seeking help from heaven or earth, creating its own Internal World —where do the Favorable Timing and Location' factions put their faces?"

Zhao Xing raised an eyebrow and said, "If you put it that way, wouldn't my efforts to unify the three factions in my hometown have been in vain?"

Chen Shijie didn't even look up. "It wasn't all for nothing. I still respect the Primordial Beginning Realm and admire those accomplished predecessors."

"Of course, in my mind, the theory of Earthly Advantage Faction is the true path to explaining the essence of the universe."

"The Heavenly Timing True Self? That's nothing but a fallacy!"

Zhao Xing was also multitasking, casually asking as he read, "Then tell me, how does the Earthly Advantage Faction explain the Great Dao of the Universe?"

Chen Shijie closed his book and replied seriously, "The Earthly Advantage Faction divides the universe into three major periods based on geological strata: the Archean Eon, the Proterozoic Era, and the Dao Manifestation Universe."

"Then there are boundaries, eras, centuries, centuries, periods."

"The name 'Ancient Hill of Antiquity ' comes from the theory of the Archean Eon."

"Legend has it that the Ancient Hill of Antiquity possess the oldest small world, within which there is a ley Earth Vein believed to have existed since the birth of the universe, known as the Archean Earth Vein."

"That ' Taigu Vein ' contains the infinite mysteries of the universe's great principles."

"Therefore, multiple magical systems have evolved, such as the Earth Splitting Art, Mountain Art, Mystic Earth Art, Earth Palace Art, Earth Passage Art, and Earth Treasury Art."

"The Extreme Continent Cultivation Method was created by the great beings of the Ancient Hill of Antiquity based on that Taigu Vein. Therefore, the first level of the Extreme Continent Cultivation Method is to guide the meridian into the body."

At this point, Chen Shijie said with some regret, "Unfortunately, I am dull-witted. Although I have reached the perfection of the Third Realm, I still haven't been able to master the first level of the Extreme Land. I can't go to the Ancient Hill of Antiquity in person to see it."

"Don't regret it, you'll master it eventually." Zhao Xing smiled. "Look, I mastered it in just a few years."

2

Chen Shijie was at a loss for whether to be happy or sad, feeling as if he hadn't been comforted at all!

"Considering there are so many books, I won't hold it against you," Chen Shijie said. "Don't make a sound, let me read in peace for a while."

"Yes, Lord Chen!"

Changes in the Earth Vein can cause mountains and rivers to shift, Vast Sea, and also cause instability in the six elements.

If changes in the Earth Vein that would normally take a period, a generation, or even a epoch to complete are accomplished in a short time, the resulting [...].

The geological changes are referred to as the "Earth Epoch Cataclysm".

Any tiny variable, multiplied by endless time, becomes terrifying.

After the Earth Epoch Cataclysm, even the Great Dao will be affected.

Cenozoic Era cultivators are unable to adapt to the old way. After entering a certain area, they will find that many of the spells they practice produce extremely strong effect deviations, or even backlashes!

Earth Epoch Cataclysm can trigger a galaxy-scale "Hou Transformation"!

It can also release earth energy that can shock the mind, or even poisonous gas!

Judging from Yuan Xin's description, the Layered World Mountain on the Sea Passage Ancient Road experienced phenomena such as blood rain falling from the sky, cultivators going mad, and corpses emerging, which is very likely due to the occurrence of the "Earth Epoch Cataclysm".

Because the Layered World Mountain is a special existence, its foot extends deep into the Dao Ancient Layer of the void, and it can also transform void energy to condense into mountain rocks.

This created the conditions for the occurrence of the "Earth Epoch Cataclysm".

However, at this time, people's understanding of earth changes was still at a relatively superficial level.

Things that cannot be understood become mystical or Divine Path.

"Most studies on Earth-Change Treatise are limited to the Mesozoic Era, which is the third Earth Vein Era of the Dao Manifestation Universe."

"There are very few ways to deal with it, and there are none at all further back."

After spending several months reading all the books, Zhao Xing organized what he had learned.

The reason why it doesn't exist is quite simple: firstly, it's not useful. Even Earthly Advantage Faction Shennong in the Reincarnation Realm would rarely encounter a [Earth Epoch Cataclysm].

Such intense Earth Vein changes are rare within the Spirit Domain Realm.

Without demand, there is no motivation; if problems are encountered infrequently, naturally no one will bother to study them.

If all else fails, just take a detour and designate that area as a "forbidden zone," and that's it.

Anyway, our Agricultural Official may not be good at anything else, but he is good at expanding territory and creating new livable environments. Why bother touching the "forbidden zone"?

"Lao Qing once said that the Desolate Territory is the graveyard of those in the Reincarnation Realm. If this is added to the mix, it's no wonder that the whole thing has become a bizarre incident."

"Now that we've identified the problem, we should start researching how to solve it."

After pondering for a moment, Zhao Xing first wrote a few large characters on the blank Dao Book:

The Dao Manifestation Era Earth Change Theory

How can one determine that it is the Dao Manifestation Universe, rather than the Proterozoic Era or the Archean Eon, when one has not even arrived at the location?

The reason is that the Si Yue Desolate Territory has a relatively short history.

"The Si Yue Desolate Territory used to be Spirit Domain, and its Earth Vein changes were gentle and slow."

"Based on this, it can be determined that the stratigraphic period of this Earth Epoch Cataclysm is between the late Mesozoic Era and the early Cenozoic Era."

"As for which of the middle periods it is, we'll have to see for ourselves on site."

The Mesozoic Era is one of the Earth Vein Era of the Dao Manifestation Universe. It consists of three periods: the Triassic Era, during which Three Layered World Mountains appeared in large numbers, hence the name.

The second period is the Chaotic River Era Chaotic River Era, during which numerous boundary mountains appeared, transforming the primordial void ocean into rivers.

The Third Period was named the Baiwei Period, after a person named Baiwei.

This period marked the end of the Five Emperors Era Five Emperors era, which spanned three periods and could even be traced back to the Paleozoic Era before the Mesozoic Era.

It's a bit tricky to sort out these timelines because the unit of an era is 1.2 million World Star Year, but the unit of an era in terms of Earth Vein is hundreds of World Star Year. One Cretaceous Period lasts for hundreds of World Star Year.

As he was writing, Zhao Xing suddenly remembered Fan Daoyou he had met in Ice Star Prison.

"He's skilled at breaking ancient Magic Array from the Cretaceous Period era. I wonder if he'll be able to emerge sooner in this life."

The reason Fan Daoyou was chosen to train was because he possessed unique skills.

However, the issue with Sea Passage Ancient Road has been brought forward, and this guy needs to be released from prison sooner rather than later, or it will be too late.

"Forget it, let's not think about him for now. Even without Butcher Zhang, I can't just eat hairy pork, can I?"

"My lord, I am now a first-class Sea Trade Envoy, and my status is incomparable to what it used to be."

"I should be remotely controlling things from afar, instead of doing every little detail."

Zhao Xing hummed softly as he continued engraving the Dao Book.

Time has passed, and three months have gone by since the Wildcat Realm Boat left the Shenchen Fourteenth Pass.

Because the entire route is connected by the Starry Sky Ring Continent Ancient Hill of Antiquity, teleportation is possible after a period of flight, so three months later...

The Wildcat and the Beihe Legion's Realm Boat have already arrived at the second forward base on the Sea Passage Ancient Road, "Taoyang Star Continent".

It is named after Tao Yangzi, a disciple of Emperor Hongshan.

"Zhao Xing, the Beihe Legion has arrived on the Taoyang Star Continent. On behalf of all the generals and Beihe Legion, I thank you." The speaker was Duan Ye, the leading general of the Beihe Legion.

Duan Ye is a senior Reincarnation Realm, one level below a Lord (Elite), but his combat strength is also very strong.

Zhao Xing looked at Duan Ye's comprehensive data on the detection panel, and after calculating it, he realized that this person definitely had the combat power of Lord Level.

He is also the number two figure in the Beihe Star System.

"Senior Duan, Guest Qi," Zhao Xing said, cupping his hands in greeting. "It's my honor to be able to do something so insignificant for my hometown."

?

Duan Ye was clearly not one to mince words. His second sentence was. "The troops of the Great Zhou have entered the Wuye Army. I will certainly not treat them unfairly. Please rest assured."

"The situation at the front is urgent, so we'll be leaving now."

"Wishing you great success, senior."

As soon as the Beihe Legion's Realm Boat arrived on the Taoyang Star Continent, they immediately used the Star Shifting Formation to teleport all the Realm Boat to another dojo on Langping Dao. From there, the journey to the Wangliang Star Sector would be very short.

Qiao Song and Yang Zhuo's concerns can be resolved, and Great Zhou can also catch a ride and start its own development.

The Great Zhou's team was led by two Dao Domain Realm experts, Liu Tianning and Yun Tian Dao, while the Third Realm Origin Realm experts included King Luo Hou, Ling Tianchen, Long Xiao, Xia Jing, Lu Ying, and the great physician Cui Chengzhi.

Ji Che remained at the Jiachen Fourteenth Pass, serving as a link between domestic and international affairs.

Ji Si, Chen Shijie, and some of their men stayed at the Taoyang Base with Zhao Xing.

After landing at Taoyang Base, only Master Miao Song Dao Ren came to greet them, and he was only there as Straw Man Clone.

As a first-level Sea Trade Envoy, whose status is higher than many positions held by people in the Reincarnation Realm, only Miao Song Dao Ren, a second-level Sea Trade Envoy, came to greet him.

Surely they don't take me that seriously?

"Brother Zhao, please don't be offended. All the department heads are in the Central Extreme Hall for a meeting and can't get away," Miao Song Dao Ren explained as soon as he came up.

"It's alright, I've come at the perfect time. Take me to the Central Extreme Hall," Zhao Xing said.

They flew and teleported through the Desolate Territory, and the communication from the Star Mirror was not timely. Zhao Xing might arrive early or late, and since the timing was uncertain, he could not possibly greet them on time.

Otherwise, Tao Yangzi would have to give Zhao Xing some face and come out to greet him.

Zhao Xing's authority officially took effect at the Jiachen Fourteenth Pass. After landing at the Taoyang Base, he traveled smoothly all the way and soon arrived at the intermediate hall.

Miao Song Dao Ren led Zhao Xing into the hall and casually chose an empty floating platform to sit on, still without attracting attention.

Because at that moment, a fierce argument was taking place inside the hall.

"Support? How? Qiu Zishan, your Agricultural Official can't even set up a stake, and now you want our Profound Mystery Division to support you?"

A bald man slammed his fist on the table, his voice booming like thunder, causing the space inside the intermediate hall to tremble.

"One from the Earth Passage Division, ten from the Profound Mystery Division, are you in or not?"

"Gu Ming, what nonsense are you spouting? Did I send you out on a dangerous mission? I only asked you to reinforce the pass of the Seventh World Mountain for fifteen days. Why are you slamming your fist on the table?!" Inside the hall, on another floating platform, Qiu Zishan, a brown-haired youth wearing the robes of the Void-Crossing Ritual Robe, stood up and waved his arms indignantly, but his momentum seemed somewhat lacking.

"If the five mountain passes of the Seventh World Mountain are blocked, my men will be trapped there and die."

"Oh, so you mean you're begging me?" Gu Ming said with a hint of sarcasm, "Are you begging our Profound Mystery Division to risk their lives to go down that evil mountain path and bring back your Earth Passage Division's people? Is that it?"

Qiu Zishan was furious, but also felt humiliated by begging. Weighing his options, he chose to feign weakness. "Gu Ming, you're right! I'm begging you, please go save them!"

Zhao Xing glanced at the Miao Song Dao Ren beside him and whispered, "Brother, I know Qiu Zishan. He's Tao Yang's disciple."

He's also the head of the Star Land Dao Division, but who exactly is that person?

Having just arrived at the site, I'm not very familiar with anything yet, and looking at the Star Mirror won't help because there are frequent personnel changes at the forward-looking base.

For example, Zhao Xing's Star Mirror shows that the person in charge of the Taoyang Base is Tao Yangzi, but Tao Yangzi is not currently at the base.

His position, like that of Emperor Hongshan and Emperor Bisui, was at the First Pioneer Base.

"Gu Ming is Mechanism Master from Heavenly Citadel Island in the Origin Heavenly Palace, and also the chief officer of the Profound Mystery Division."

"Oh, no wonder he has such a bad temper." Zhao Xing suddenly realized that the Mechanism Master trained on Heavenly Citadel Island of the Origin Heavenly Palace were very famous.

Today, many parts of the Yueluo Cemetery in the Illusory God Star System have been taken over by the Origin Heavenly Palace and are gradually becoming the familiar place to Zhao Xing.

The Magic Array arrays were created by the Mechanism Master on Heavenly Citadel Island.

If it weren't for Zhao Xing's appearance, the World-Passing Tomb containing the Time Page of the Mysterious Spirit History would have ultimately been suppressed by the people of Heavenly Citadel Island.

Zhao Xing also knew a Mechanism Master who came from Heavenly Citadel Island, namely Zhan Ze, a good friend of Du Yun.

"So what are they arguing about? It seems to be about the Seventh World Mountain?"

Miao Song Dao Ren said with a solemn expression, "Brother Zhao, you must have heard some rumors along the way, about Layered World Mountain, right?"

"I have heard some of it," Zhao Xing nodded. "However, since it hasn't been officially announced in the Star Territory, the rumors circulating are bound to be exaggerated."

"It's not an exaggeration," Miao Song Dao Ren shook his head. "The truth is far more serious than the rumors suggest."

"Both the troops stationed at the first, second, and third dojos, and the non-combat personnel, suffered casualties."

"The Agricultural Official of the Earthly Advantage Faction are completely unable to cut through the Layered World Mountain, and cannot even drive in a single pile."

"A while ago, a blood rain fell at the First Dojo, and the remains of Demon Race emerged. It's said that even Emperor Hongshan was injured. Moreover, he has been absent from the First Boundary Mountain for a long time, supposedly searching for the cause, but many people say that even Emperor Hongshan is trapped..."

Zhao Xing was slightly startled. Even Emperor Hongshan was injured and trapped? This rumor was a bit frightening.

"The first training ground is the advance team that is currently excavating. It's one thing that the Layered World Mountain hasn't been breached, but how come there have been casualties even at the second and third bases that have already been breached?"

Miao Song Dao Ren shook his head. "That is precisely the reason for the argument."

1

"The several Layered World Mountain that were originally between the first and second dojos suddenly began to close off at an accelerated pace."

"The same strange thing happened again afterward."

"Because we don't know which link went wrong, tens of thousands of people are now trapped inside the Seventh World Mountain, unable to get through or return."

Chen Shijie and Ji Si were completely confused, but Zhao Xing quickly understood what Miao Song Dao Ren meant.

The characteristic of the Layered World Mountain is that it will grow even after being dug up, always maintaining its original shape, and will even increase in size and height over time.

Secondly, the mountain is located within a void layer.

It blocks the road because of these two characteristics.

If you stand in front of Layered World Mountain, you will see a wall above and below, and a wall to the left and right, stretching endlessly.

To get through, the only option is to dig a tunnel and then reinforce it; otherwise, you'll have to take a detour.

If we go around in circles, we don't know how far it will be.

The mountain ranges are arranged like train carriages, and the base is where people live.

If the passage through the boundary mountain cannot be stabilized, then the carriages will not be able to pass each other.

Even more frightening is that if the growth in Jieshan rebounds too quickly, it's like the train carriages starting to get cramped!

Explorers living between the border mountains either get trapped or crushed to death!

Problems arose at the three bases at the very beginning of the Sea Passage Ancient Road because construction was carried out in batches at different paces.

Because the excavation went smoothly and there were enough people, once the first mountain was cleared, a group of people immediately went over to establish a base, while another group stayed behind to secure the passage at the first boundary mountain, as if someone was guarding the entrance to each section of a train carriage.

By connecting these bases and expanding into the cosmos, the Sea Passage Ancient Road was formed.

"Yes, Zhao Xing, your analogy of the carriage is very apt." Miao Song Dao Ren took a deep breath and said:

"The current situation is that not only is the space between the carriages compressed, but there are also poisonous gases, demonic creatures, and blood rain that corrodes people's Golden Body."

"Originally, with Emperor Hongshan and Emperor Bisui around, people were calm and didn't take it seriously. But now that Emperor Hongshan is injured, people are starting to panic."

"Gu Ming was unwilling to risk his life to rescue people because he, as Mechanism Master, was not responsible for combat missions, and calls to change course were gradually increasing."

"I reckon this matter is about to get out of control—"

"Damn it, what bad luck! I've only been here a few years and I've already run into this kind of thing!" Miao Song Dao Ren couldn't help but curse.

Power and responsibility are equal. If the Sea Passage Ancient Road has to be bypassed or simply abandoned, then what is the point of their existence Sea Trade Envoy?

Demotion and loss of merit were secondary; Miao Song Dao Ren only prayed that he wouldn't be thrown into jail.

"Is the situation really that serious?" Zhao Xing felt that he had been too idealistic.

"I understand now. When I came to Sea Passage Ancient Road in my previous life, the power of the Earth Epoch Cataclysm had been suppressed to the minimum by the Magic Array. Occasionally, there were bursts, but they did not cause a chain reaction, which gave me the feeling that it was easy to deal with." Zhao Xing analyzed inwardly.

"Brother Miaosong, please share with me all the information and details you have."

Miao Song Dao Ren connected his Star Mirror with Zhao Xing's with a touch.

Then, looking at Zhao Xing who was deep in thought, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zhao, you don't mean to get involved in this mess, do you?"

"I think you should hurry up and find an excuse to run away with Emperor Hongshan before any missions are assigned to you. Aren't you also serving as the Star Annihilation Envoy?"

"If you apply for a transfer now, the Emperor Lord Realm will surely not make things difficult for you."

"I can't do it anymore. I've been working here for over ten years, sigh—"

These are the heartfelt words of Miao Song Dao Ren. From his perspective, running away is the best option for Zhao Xing now.

"I'm not leaving." Zhao Xing shook his head. "Giving up easily is not my style."

"You really want to stay?" Miao Song Dao Ren was a little surprised. He had already explained the pros and cons to Zhao Xing, so why wouldn't he listen?

"Even if you are not punished, you should not stay here. Who knows how long it will take to resolve the problem of Sea Passage Ancient Road?"

Instead of wasting time here, why not—

"Brother Miaosong, there's no need to persuade me any further," Zhao Xing said with a smile. "The ambition of the Agricultural Official is to change the world, and now is the time to put our ideals into practice and fulfill our aspirations."

The argument Central Extreme Hall had ended sometime ago, and it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone turned their attention to Zhao Xing, drawn by his words.

"Well said!" Qiu Zishan exclaimed excitedly. "The ambition of the Agricultural Official is to change the world; now is the time to put our ideals into practice!"

"Indeed! The people of Ancient Hill of Antiquity are never defeated by a single mountain!"

"If the Profound Mystery Division won't help, then we don't need them. We weren't counting on these useless people anyway!"

"Even Martial Man eats porridge; he can't even carry the World Mountain Corner Peak on his back—"

There were quite a few people who echoed Qiu Zishan's sentiments, but there were also quite a few who remained silent.

Gu Ming looked at Zhao Xing, compared the information with the data in the Star Mirror, and then sneered, "Who do we have here? It turns out to be the famous Primordial Chapter Holy Son."

Unfazed by the sarcasm, Zhao Xing stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "The Primordial Chapter Holy Son is merely making a joke. I am Zhao Xing, a First-Class Sea Trade Envoy. I greet Chief Gu and request that you discuss the matter of rescue with me."

Gu Ming, who came from the Origin Heavenly Palace, was instinctively displeased that Zhao Xing had defeated Du Yun.

He didn't buy into Zhao Xing's polite words at all. "You don't need to put me on this level. This matter was originally the dereliction of duty of your Agricultural Official, and has nothing to do with our Profound Mystery Division."

"Want to save people? Sure!" Gu Ming pointed at Zhao Xing, his smile playful. "Your Voidgrass Doppelganger and my true form will go first."

Do you dare?

He thought Zhao Xing, a combative Agricultural Official, knew nothing about trivial matters like opening mountains and digging tunnels? Wasn't he just using people as pawns in a high-sounding way?

Gu Ming was no pushover either, and he immediately grabbed Zhao Xing and lifted him up.

You speak so righteously, so as a first-class Sea Trade Envoy, do you dare to be the first to charge forward?

Gu Ming was certain that Zhao Xing wouldn't dare to agree, and wanted to end this pointless argument by turning and leaving.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xing bowed and said firmly, "Yes, I'll be the first to go on this rescue mission. Please lend me a hand, fellow Daoist."
