While eating, Jiang Ping An took the opportunity to learn about the current situation of several people around him.
Shi'er's cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and he is already a leader among the younger generation of the royal family, and his right to speak has become more and more important.
Tuanzi's strength has increased significantly recently after receiving the wind inheritance from Bai Dianyuan.
And because Talent is outstanding, he also successfully received an official salary from the royal family, which can be regarded as a stable source of resources.
Little Lion Because it is a special species forged from divine materials, it does not need to practice as hard as ordinary monks, so it is most comfortable to spend the whole day besides eating and playing around.
Long Ya relied on her amazing Talent performance in the formation, and was favored by an elder of the royal family who did not participate in any factional battles.
Now, Long Ya was taken to a secret place to practice in seclusion and learn advanced formations.
Overall, everyone is doing well and making steady progress on their own paths.
However, the situation on the front line is not very optimistic.
The news coming in shows that more and more forward camps of the alliance have been captured, and the territory is being eroded step by step by opponents.
According to the news Lan Shi'er heard from high-level officials, Clan Leader and Zhuo Shan of the Wildsea Royal Clan have returned from traveling outside the territory.
Currently, Zhuo Shan is fighting fiercely with Azure King. The strength of the two sides is about the same, and they are inseparable.
Jiang Ping An accompanied Shi'er, Tuanzi and Little Lion to go shopping in the busy streets of the Imperial City for a few days, enjoying this rare leisure time.
The Imperial City, which has always been peaceful and prosperous, has seen more discussions about the war on the front lines recently.
Related news can often be heard in street talks.
The atmosphere of spiritual practice in the entire city has also become stronger, and an invisible sense of urgency is permeating the air.
In troubled times, everyone understands that only if they are strong enough can they better ensure the safety of themselves and their loved ones.
While shopping, Lan Shi'er suddenly received a message from a senior member of the royal family, asking her to go back to practice immediately.
It seems that the increasingly tight situation on the front line has put great pressure on the top brass of the royal family.
Nowadays, all core members of the royal family are required to do their best to improve their strength.
This kind of depression and urgency that filled the air made Jiang Ping An feel very insecure and gave birth to an urge to become stronger faster.
With his current level of cultivation, let alone influencing the battle situation, even self-protection seems reluctant.
He simply cannot fight against an existence like Wildsea Royal Clan's Clan Leader Zhuo Shan. The strength gap between the two sides is like a chasm.
He is now just God King Second Level God King, and Zhuo Shan is Ninth Level God King Supreme Expert who stands at the peak of God King!
Moreover, the further one reaches the later stages of cultivation, the more difficult it becomes to break through every realm.
If it weren't for Talent's amazing talent and beauty, it would be common for him to be stuck in one realm for tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years.
After sending Shi'er back to the mansion, Jiang Ping An also returned to Cultivation Room of Hua Miao Lou and continued to devote himself to boring practice.
A few months later, on a sea far away from the imperial city.
Lan Jie was covered in blood, and his originally luxurious robes became torn.
He held a long sword that shone with cold light tightly in his hand. The tip of the sword penetrated a woman's chest and lifted her up high. The bright red blood was dripping down the sharp blade, and dazzling blood flowers bloomed on the sea.
He turned his head and cast his cold eyes on a sturdy man not far away. His voice was emotionless. "Hand over the jar."
If Jiang Ping An, Ding Han and others were here, they would definitely recognize that the man and woman confronting Lan Jie were the Zhang Yong and Mo Xiu couple who robbed the mysterious pottery pot in Zhum Civilization Ruins.
"Let my wife go! I'll give you the jar!"
Zhang Yong's eyes were red, staring at the woman who was provoked by the sword, and her voice was trembling slightly due to extreme anger and tension.
"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me."
Lan Jie's tone was indifferent, his wrist suddenly twisted, and the sword rotated violently in his hand. The pierced Mo Xiu immediately let out a shrill scream, and the wound was bloody and bloody.
Hearing his wife's painful wails, Zhang Yong's face instantly turned pale, and without caring about anything else, he hurriedly took out an inconspicuous earth-yellow clay pot from the world inside his body.
The shape of this jar is simple and even a little rough, just like an ordinary object fired in a rural kiln.
However, this is indeed one of the Supreme Treasures from Zhum Civilization.
However, Zhang Yong and his wife have had it for many years and have tried various methods, but they have never been able to uncover its secrets and do not know what its specific use is.
Seeing that the lady's life was hanging by a thread, Zhang Yong threw the jar hard at Lan Jie without hesitation:
"Here's something for you! Let my wife go!"
"Oh."
Lan Jie reached out to catch the flying pot and responded casually.
However, the next moment, his arm holding the sword suddenly shook, and violent Sword Qi burst out from the sword.
"Bang!"
There was a muffled sound, and Mo Xiu was picked up on the sword. He could not even leave a last word. His delicate body exploded and turned into a thick blood mist, which was scattered in the sea breeze.
"Girl!!!"
Zhang Yong watched helplessly as dao companion was completely destroyed in body and soul in front of him, and let out a heart-rending roar. The sound waves hit the sea surface, setting off huge waves, and the sound shook the sea area thousands of miles away.
Boundless regret swallowed him up instantly.
He regretted so much, regretting why he coveted this jar in the first place and got involved in right and wrong.
But what is stronger than regret is overwhelming anger.
Obviously he had handed over the jar as requested by the other party, why would the other party be so vicious and kill them all?!

Zhang Yong's canthus was cracked, and his eyes turned blood red. Two lines of tears mixed with blood flowed down the tear trough on his cheeks.
He gritted his teeth tightly, his teeth shattered, and he suppressed the urge to rush forward and fight for his life and the grief and anger that almost tore his heart apart.
He turned around suddenly, used all his strength, plunged into the deep and dark seabed, and fled wildly into the distance.
He wished he could immediately cut Lan Jie into pieces to avenge his wife.
But he knew that the opponent was powerful and had endless trump cards, and rushing forward now would only lead to death.
He must live!
Only by surviving will you have the opportunity to kill your enemy and avenge your wife!
If he died here at this moment, there would really be no hope anymore.
Lan Jie looked at the direction in which Zhang Yong was escaping and chased him for a short distance. Seeing that the other party was determined to escape and the seabed environment was complicated, he stopped and stopped wasting energy.
Right now, the most important thing for him is to restart the jar in his hand.
"After so many years... my ancestor is finally resurrected."
Lan Jie came out with a vicissitudes of time and ancient voice, which was completely different from his previous voice.
At the same time, the flesh on his face squirmed strangely, and a dark and twisted ancient mask that seemed to contain endless chaotic will slowly emerged.
The shape of this mask is exactly the same as the totem in Zhum Civilization Ruins!
His appearance at this moment is exactly the same as those parasitized apes and giant rats in the ruins!
Obviously, Lan Jie has been eroded by the weird Zhumu Totem.
In other words... parasitized.
Now Lan Jie, in a sense, he is both Lan Jie, but not purely Lan Jie.
Although he still retains some of his own memories and thoughts, the core of his consciousness has been invaded and merged by another huge and ancient consciousness.
This ancient ritual is the remaining collective consciousness of "Zhum Civilization".
He already thinks that he is part of [Zhu Mu].
This is why he knows the secrets and uses of animal skins and jars so well.
Lan Jie no longer paid attention to the escaping Zhang Yong, and with a movement of his body, he escaped into the deep seabed.
Found a hidden Sea Trench and opened a temporary cave abode in it.
Then, he used the formation materials collected from Mo Xiu to build a hidden Barrier that could isolate the atmosphere and detection.
After doing all this, he solemnly took out the khaki clay pot and placed it in front of him.
He took a few steps back, took a deep breath, and began to dance a ritual dance with weird postures. The dance was full of original Savage Wilderness atmosphere...
In the ancient and ignorant era, before the ancestors created Divine Runes, they used their own bodies as a medium to communicate with heaven and earth.
Through specific body movements and dance, the power of Divine Dao Laws is induced and harnessed.
Later, with the development of civilization, the more convenient and efficient Divine Runes system gradually emerged.
Only then did this kind of physical ritual, which was time-consuming and extremely demanding on the performer, gradually eliminated.
However, in many Divine Art hand gestures of later generations, there are still some traces of ancient ritual movements...
In this dark and silent seabed cave abode, the distorted Black Mask on Lan Jie's face looked particularly strange in the dim light.
Accompanied by his weird dance full of ancient rhythms, the entire space is filled with an indescribable weird atmosphere.
As Lan Jie's body danced, in the Unseen, some kind of ancient Rule Power that had been silent for endless years was slowly aroused and awakened.
On the surface of the earth-yellow jar, strange little figures began to gradually appear one after another. Each little figure seemed to carry some power.
The jar that originally looked ordinary released a powerful and mysterious wave of power!
Weird phenomena also occurred in the outside world.
The wind and clouds above the sea changed color, dark clouds gathered, the sea water rolled violently and roared, and thick thunder and lightning rushed wildly between the clouds and the sea surface like Thunder Dragon.
It seemed as if some terrifying existence that had been sleeping for eternity was about to awaken, frightening all the creatures in this sea area and fleeing in all directions.
"Buzz~"
After an unknown amount of time, when the ceremony reached a critical point, the lid on the jar suddenly opened on its own and flew into the air.
A majestic, pure, distant Ancient God force that seemed to come from the starting point of all things burst out from the mouth of the jar!
Lan Jie immediately opened his mouth, sucked in suddenly, and sucked the gushing far Ancient God force into his body!
His body expanded rapidly and instantly turned into a Round sphere. His skin was stretched almost transparent, as if it would explode at any time.
He endured the pain of almost bursting his body, controlled his own life Divine Sword to fly towards him, and pierced his swollen chest with a sword without hesitation!
"Pfft!"
Hot blood shot out from the wound like a fountain, splashing all over the nearby clay pot.
The clay pot's light seemed to come alive, and it began to greedily suck the blood sprayed on it.
The body of the jar trembled slightly, and the little people on the surface jumped for joy, flashing with strange blood.
This strange ceremony continued for an unknown length of time.
Lan Jie's body became shriveled due to excessive blood loss, and his life breath was extremely weak.
The pottery pot that sucked blood finally seemed to be satisfied. The lid of the pot automatically flew back and closed it again with a "clang" sound.
"Plop~"
Exhausted, Lan Jie's knees weakened and he knelt down in front of the jar. His body was so weak that he could hardly stand.
However, the Black Mask on his face outlined an extremely weird smile.
"I'm back... I, Zhu Mu... are back!"
"Once upon a time, I really took the wrong path, so that group of guys united to destroy me..."
"But in this new era, I will definitely rise again! One day, I will become the sole master of this vast God Realm!"
He stretched out his trembling hands and hugged the slightly different clay pot with great treasure. The sly smile on his face slowly faded away, replaced by a kind of coldness.
"However, with only this [Heavenly Abyss], it cannot exert its full power. It also needs the cooperation of the 'conscious world' left by my ancestor."
His gaze seemed to penetrate endless space, looking in the direction of the imperial city, and his voice was filled with a biting chill:
"If you dare to take my ancestor's things, you will die without a burial place!"
Lan Jie sneered, and immediately began to activate the power of the [Heavenly Abyss] jar in his arms, through some kind of connection, to forcibly activate the huge world of consciousness he left behind in that animal skin!
As long as the animal skin is successfully activated, with it as the center, the consciousness of all living beings within a radius of tens of millions of miles will be forcibly pulled into that chaotic and violent world of consciousness!
