Eight Hundred Li of Yunmeng Marsh

In the blink of an eye, almost half a year has passed since Wu Yi Shoots at Heaven.

Thanks to Li Boyang's protection, the Hundred Lands Mountain Range were not ravaged by disasters like the outside world, and the Mountain Folk once again ushered in a rare harvest.

It's harvest season again.

Lazily wagging her tail, Xiluo's voice broke the tranquility of the cliff top.

"Ah?"

Startled from his reverie, Li Boyang stared blankly at Xiluo, who had suddenly spoken.

Ever since Wu Yi was immobilized by the "Body Immobilization Technique," Xiluo has ignored Li Boyang for a long time.

Even with Li Jingshu mediating and persuading, Xiluo firmly believed that Li Boyang underestimated her, which was why he didn't let her participate in that battle.

Although subsequent events proved that Li Boyang was right not to let Xiluo participate in that battle.

"So, you're not angry anymore?"

After a brief silence, Li Boyang asked.

Actually, Li Boyang has tried to coax Xiluo quite a bit in the past six months.

But cats are the kind of creatures that get more excited the more you coax them.

Furthermore, Li Boyang is not the kind of person who can ignore the facts, which is why this cold war has dragged on until now.

"Of course I'm angry!"

Rolling her eyes in annoyance, Xiluo scratched her paw in slight frustration.

"But I'm not angry because you didn't let me join the fight, I'm angry that you don't trust me at all!"

"Am I the kind of person who likes to be unreasonable and wouldn't even know to hide if the sky were to fall?"

Xiluo stood up and slowly walked to the altar where Li Boyang was, and asked.

"Ever since you displayed your might last time, we've been hearing more and more from you, haven't we?"

"I've noticed you've been sleeping very little lately. Are you having trouble sleeping at all?"

Although Xiluo's expression was still sour, the concern in her words was genuine.

Although she had been brooding for half a year, Xiluo had been keeping a close eye on Li Boyang's situation.

Since the great battle six months ago, Li Boyang has been sleeping for shorter and shorter periods of time, sometimes spending the entire day on the altar without coming down.

Xiluo naturally understood what was going on, and therefore became even more worried.

"Why don't we give up on that so-called Golden Core?"

"Whether you're Celestial Person being or Heavenly Deity, being the god of Yunmeng Marsh isn't so bad."

"After all, as long as the disasters outside continue, the eight hundred miles of Yunmeng Marsh that you mentioned at the beginning is not actually impossible to achieve. The strength of a god's power is certainly not positively correlated with the size of his territory."

If Yunmeng Marsh truly extends for eight hundred miles in the future, the power of the God of Yunmeng Marsh will certainly not be weak.

"Yes, as long as the disasters outside continue, these Hundred Lands Mountain Range will inevitably be affected sooner or later—"

The current situation is somewhat similar to the floods that Wuzhiqi instigated back then, but it is also more complicated.

With the exception of a very few places like the Great Xia and the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, disasters frequently occurred in various places due to the chaos of the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

According to Li Boyang's observations during this period.

Flash floods, earthquakes, and floods are considered relatively minor disasters.

The real calamity comes from beyond the Nine Provinces, from that boundless ocean.

Seawater is flowing inland.

The coastal boundary is being eroded and swallowed up little by little, which has directly led to the flooding of rivers and tributaries again, and the floods in various places have returned to the peak of the floods four or five years ago.

Most importantly, this time there were no water gods or river gods taking advantage of the flood to cause trouble.

It was a purely natural disaster caused simply because the trend of seawater overflowing was so terrifying.

In other words, conventional methods of water conservancy and reservoir construction are no longer effective.

Even if Li Boyang tried every means to expand Yunmeng Marsh to eight hundred li, it would still be impossible to contain the ever-growing floodwaters.

Furthermore, the consequences of seawater intrusion are not limited to just flooding.

Agricultural and fishery crop failures, groundwater pollution, soil salinization, coastline shrinkage, and even the transformation of seas into arable land are all possible scenarios.

"I wonder if Wu Yi regrets what he did."

Hearing Li Boyang's sigh, Xiluo rolled her eyes again, as if it were a familiar gesture.

"I don't think that madman will regret it, since he doesn't consider anyone outside of Great Xia as one of his own kind."

Xiluo was telling the truth; Wu Yi kept saying that the gods treated humans like livestock.

But how could he, who so deliberately provoked this catastrophe, possibly consider those outside of Great Xia as his own kind?

"Speaking of which, is that guy dead or alive now?"

"I have a nagging feeling that you left that guy's body on Flying Peak."

"What if he's not quite dead? Wouldn't my Flying Peak be doomed again?"

Looking at Xiluo's worried face, Li Boyang smiled, a rare occurrence for him.

"Don't worry about that. Even if Wu Yi isn't dead now, he certainly won't have the energy to pay attention to such a trivial matter."

As he said this, Li Boyang unconsciously touched his brow.

The shocking incident six months ago made Li Boyang realize just how deep the waters of this world truly are.

Apart from those ancient and eternally existing Great Heavenly Deity.

There are many more beings that, though seemingly dead, continue to live on in this world.

If it weren't for the Netherworld Lord successfully intimidating those ferocious beings at the last moment...

Li Boyang even wondered if he had already gone to the Yin World to become a "Wheel-Turning Yama".

What exactly did you see at that time?

Noticing Li Boyang's actions, Xiluo frowned and asked.

Unlike Li Boyang, Xiluo's understanding of this world is very simple.

Aside from the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, there are at most the Guifang Kingdom, the Tufang Kingdom, and a few other nearby kingdoms.

Even his understanding of the Great Xia was corrected after he came into contact with Wu Yi.

"What I saw at that moment is no longer important; what matters is that Wu Yi has already overturned the table."

Under Xiluo's slightly bewildered gaze, Li Boyang continued to explain.

"Actually, we can see this from the disasters happening in the outside world right now."

"Even if those guys I saw back then hadn't been killed by Wu Yi, their current situation wouldn't be much better than Wu Yi's."

Li Boyang's remarks were not speculation, but a statement of fact.

Wu Yi was willing to risk his own life just to end the era of the gods.

It's easy to imagine that those ancient beings that are dead but not yet dead are definitely one of Wu Yi's targets.

"At least it's not the worst-case scenario yet."

"The Hundred Lands Mountain Range, which still maintain their balance of Yuan Qi, are like a Sea-Calming Divine Needle, accelerating the reconstruction of the order of the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi."

Thinking of this, Li Boyang couldn't help but sigh again.

Wu Yi's obsession and madness are indeed as Yin Fei described, yet one cannot help but admire his drive and determination.

From a human perspective, Wu Yi is definitely the kind of wolf character who is righteous to the point of being wicked.

The only pity is that only the Federation of the Xia and a very small number of gifted individuals can be recognized as "human" by Wu Yi.
