Traversing and Erasing
The condition of the main hall and the black stone pillars was undoubtedly a mess.
Zhang Xuezhou also handed this mess over to Demon Thought.
If the Demon Thought Duck can clean up the mess, he and the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon will surely be able to get along as before.
If the Demon Thought Duck can't clean up this mess, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon can only hold back, at most finding some ways to prevent Zhang Xuezhou from causing trouble, or even trapping him inside until the time for his abstinence from Grain Avoidance is almost up before releasing him.
To be honest, I don't even know his name!
Holding a long staff that greatly enhances control over speed, Zhang Xuezhou leaped out from the distorted point where he had entered this space.
He had experienced countless spins on his way here, his body stretched back and forth as if pierced by swords, and his Yang Corporeal Soul Incarnation was almost twisted into a pretzel. But when he stepped into the distortion again, Zhang Xuezhou found that he could actually see the distortion that the Void Furnace was talking about.
This is an extremely irregular spatial oscillation, which moves up or down, left or right, and the entire area is impacted back and forth like chaotic ocean currents, causing the body to suffer various forms of torment.
When Zhang Xuezhou entered, he couldn't see anything at all and could only keep flying through the area.
He arrived after counting to fifteen minutes, and felt as if he had trudged through at least several hundred to several thousand meters.
Looking at it now, Zhang Xuezhou felt that it was only a distance of three leaps, and the space it pierced was less than ten meters.
If he can navigate through these irregular oscillations, he will be unaffected.
This certainly doesn't stem from his actual ability.
Zhang Xuezhou grabbed the long staff, realizing that it wasn't unreasonable for the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon to be bound by external objects; rather, the assistance from these external objects was far too powerful.
He had originally thought that the staff would be affected by the distortion, causing it to fall into the distortion or even be destroyed. Zhang Xuezhou never expected that it was this distorted space that was affected.
He sensed the difference between fast and slow in the main hall; Zhang Xuezhou felt that the entire area of the main hall had come to a standstill at that moment.
Entangled in the distortion, Zhang Xuezhou could see the almost solidified illusory furnace and Ren Anran, as well as the slow, irregular rotation of the distorted space.
He reached out and grabbed Ren Anran, then glanced at the fiery, untouchable furnace, before flipping over and leaping out in the twisted direction.
Maintaining a positive trajectory, Zhang Xuezhou dragged Ren Anran along as they made simple evasive maneuvers. After leaping twice in succession, Zhang Xuezhou felt as if the sky in front of him had suddenly turned blue.
The sound of wind and waves reached his ears, the external crisis was resolved, and the power of speed and slowness brought by the long staff subsided, no longer leaving Zhang Xuezhou waiting idly in a static world as before.
"Once the first time, you get used to my body; the second time, you can use it flexibly according to my wishes. Most people simply can't resist this temptation!"
Zhang Xuezhou sighed inwardly.
Regardless of the nature of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, Zhang Xuezhou felt equally tempted.
Among the groups Zhang Xuezhou knew, only Hu Yu, who possessed the power of Dingkui and needed to be treated with some caution, was someone he could easily sweep through with this long staff.
"Amazing!"
Zhang Xuezhou was in control of both speed and slowness, possessing his own thoughts and actions. For Ren Anran, it was just a step away from returning to North Rehe.
Although Zhang Xuezhou had demonstrated his ability to switch between fast and slow speeds long ago and had spoken to Ren Anran about the staff, actually experiencing it firsthand was a completely different feeling.
What was once an insurmountable barrier has become a thoroughfare; this long staff has completely altered the twisted pattern of entry and exit.
"Didn't you bring the Void Furnace with you?" Ren Anran asked after stabilizing herself in the air.
"He's engulfed in flames, I don't know where to begin!"
Zhang Xuezhou shook his head, indicating that his Yang Corporeal Soul Dharma Form was relatively fragile and he could not handle a creature like the Void Furnace, which was engulfed in flames, and therefore treated it differently.
"Can our bodies safely enter the room using the long staff?" Ren Anran asked, slightly excited.
"It should be fine," Zhang Xuezhou nodded, "But adapting to the environment inside will be difficult!"
"Problems like high temperature, toxic gas, and lack of oxygen can all be solved with external means. If you can bring your father in, he should be able to help you," Ren Anran said.
Ren Anran clearly did not expect Ren Yisheng to achieve mastery of the Yang Corporeal Soul Incarnation, but rather focused on the spiritual resistance that Ren Yisheng's physical body could exert.
If Zhang Xuezhou were to lend a hand during his conflict with the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, the balance of power between the two sides could be altered.
"If we really have to clash head-on, we'll give it a try then!"
Zhang Xuezhou glanced at the long staff, his solidified Yang Corporeal Soul Dharma Form gradually dissipating, and then he grasped the long staff and floated towards B13 Laboratory.
This staff doesn't need to be hidden too far; placing it in the laboratory makes it a place that Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon cannot reach.
The staff possesses Infinite power, yet it can be easily locked in a box forged from gold and iron, just as the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon locked it in the beams of the palace roof.
If Ren Yisheng were to use the Dragon Elephant Combat Technique to seal their memories of the past few days, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon would most likely find it difficult to discover all of this.
Even if there is some connection between the other party and the staff, it would be difficult to open the box without a key. After all, Zhang Xuezhou's individual destructive power is indeed very limited, even if his body is controlled by the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon and he can exert several times the power of the Technique Method he has learned.
When Zhang Xuezhou drifted to the B13 Laboratory, he saw Zhang Manqian constantly talking on a communicator and then pushing out a safe.
The laboratory needs to store confidential documents and new research products, so the number of safes far exceeds the number of instruments, and safes of all sizes are available.
After returning to her body, Ren Anran apparently spoke with Zhang Manqian and also chose a suitable safe to push outside the laboratory.
The staff fell gently, without generating any power.
Once Zhang Manqian sealed the safe, Zhang Xuezhou breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't wait long. When he returned to the sealed-off area of Sinkhole No. 2, a distant roar from the sky was already sweeping over him.
Zhang Manqian was clearly not the only one who drove the aircraft recklessly. Ren Yisheng, who also loved racing, rushed over and drove the aircraft at almost maximum speed.
It wasn't until it entered the North Rehe that the aircraft slowed down rapidly, unlike Zhang Manqian's violent landing.
"What exactly happened to you that made me erase Xuezhou's memories?"
Ren Yisheng Ren Yisheng, who was diligently cultivating his Realm Technique, didn't understand the situation, but when Ren Anran's request, he would also listen to the opinion of Zhang Xuezhou, the person involved.
"This is to prevent Hongku from knowing certain things. Please prepare yourself; my Yang Corporeal Soul is about to return to my physical body!"
After Zhang Xuezhou escaped from Yang Corporeal Soul, his physical body was like an inanimate object, unlike Ren Anran who still retained his senses and memories.
Only when his three souls and seven spirits return will many memories be engraved in his mind, thus allowing his body to merge with his three souls and seven spirits into one.
Zhang Xuezhou's mental strength was so great that Ren Yisheng. However, lacking a layer of resistance, Zhang Xuezhou was far inferior in mental defense, making him a typical example of someone who was strong in offense but weak in defense.
Ren Yisheng would find it difficult to defeat Zhang Xuezhou, but Zhang Xuezhou cooperating in taking the beating is a different matter entirely. It's almost as if Zhang Xuezhou was ambushed, and Zhang Xuezhou would even give up resisting.
He gave a brief explanation, and Ren Yisheng, with a frown, raised his hands, assuming the starting stance for the Dragon Elephant Combat Technique.
"You Zhouzi, you actually made me bear the stigma of sneak attack and get scolded!"
The moment Zhang Xuezhou returned to his physical body, Ren Yisheng's low curses also reached him.
He felt a sudden dizziness, and his whole body became dazed. Then his mind went blank, and many memories of his encounters with the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon were rapidly being forgotten before they could be etched into his brain.
It felt like he clearly remembered everything that belonged to Hongjun in this world, but completely forgot about it when he stepped into another world.
His memories related to this matter have been erased.
