Synchronization
"If you can pull, then pull; if you can't, stop. Decide whether to proceed or not based on your own circumstances!"
On the North Rehe Elevated Road, the crowd adjusted their positions while holding their swords, and some of them also turned their gazes to a spotted hyena wielding an alloy sword.
Then someone looked at Zhou Xin, who was carrying a metal cage not far away. Inside the cage was a spider the size of a millstone.
Fireball creatures have appeared in the North Rehe, and they will also enter the Sinkhole No. 2.
This is an extremely strange situation, but it is a necessary process for expanding the Gene Sequence.
Being backward means being vulnerable to attack. Human resources have their limits and limitations, so absorbing the advantages of other races became inevitable. This ultimately led people to accept this group while remaining wary of them.
This also includes Zhang Hao and Zhang Huang, and vaguely points to Badun and Naggs.
Even Zhang Xuezhou was among them, but many people followed Zhang Xuezhou into the Sinkhole No. 2 and witnessed firsthand the destruction of the fire meteor creatures that had influenced Zhang Xuezhou.
These circumstances have led to a change in the views of many people, and the power of the Sequence Committee, guided by figures such as Ren Yisheng and Li Yingbo, has had a decisive influence.
Today, many people are involuntarily bound together.
No one knows where the future will end, but everyone knows that only by following closely can there be hope.
Zhang Xuezhou and others who led the Scarlet Alliance State Gene Sequence are undoubtedly key figures; once these people die, morale will collapse.
If Zhang Xuezhou and the others were conscious, it would be fine, but they were outmatched and couldn't protect Zhang Xuezhou. However, Zhang Xuezhou was undoubtedly vulnerable while unconscious, and Ren Anran was very likely to join the fight at this time.
The group had risked their lives to escape the Sinkhole No. 2, and now they had to return to this place that they once feared and hated.
Zhang Xuezhou, who was unleashing his control at the front, shouted, and none of the crowd had any intention of backing down.
"They're all acting like they're about to die, is this distorted space really that dangerous...? Pshaw, is that all?"
Huang Daoxian was also made nervous by everyone.
He straightened up, his dog-like paws gripping the sword. As he moved alongside Zhang Xuezhou, he saw spatial turbulence slowly swirling around him, but the distance in this space was strangely short.
With a simple leap, Huang Daoxian crossed the distorted space that had commanded solemn respect from everyone.
He let out a disdainful "tsk," thinking that these people were all bumpkins.
But Huang Daoxian's gaze was quickly drawn to this desolate space.
"How could this be? Lifeless yet filled with the energy of heaven and earth?"
Because individuals live in different worlds, their perceptions and names of certain things will also differ.
The Spiritual Qi that Zhang Xuezhou and others referred to was called the "energy of heaven and earth" by Huang Daoxian, who felt his scalp tingling.
"What a miserable life I've lived! I... Whose legacy is this, left behind by some grandfather?!"
Donghua's ascension was disrupted, leading to his failure. The opponent truly possessed confidence. Not to mention that Donghua once had strength comparable to Hongjun, the opponent was at least a half-step ascension cultivator, and his strength was likely similar to that of Qin Meng, the cultivator who controlled the origin of the world, whom everyone feared.
Even though Zhang Xuezhou forcibly absorbed the Spiritual Qi of this area to advance to the Sole Self Realm, Huang Daoxian still recognized this environment as a top-tier treasure land.
"The aura here has lessened considerably; I can finally move around freely!"
Huang Daoxian ran off happily, while Changkong Yinghao let out a heavy sigh, realizing that the Spiritual Qi concentration in the Sinkhole No. 2 was much lower than before.
"We've been away for so long, and our bodies have regained the space to contain Spiritual Qi," Changkong Yinglian said.
"We just need to get close to the altar where Xuezhou is. I'm really afraid that if I sneak in, I'll be of no use at all," Li Qi said, shaking his head.
"Don't take this too seriously, everyone. Huang Gou is probably just curious about my situation. As long as he doesn't cross the line and cause any bad consequences, it's not a big deal. Besides, he needs me to get out, so my risk should be minimal," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"We need to nip problems in the bud as much as possible to avoid any low-probability events!"
Ren Yisheng shook his head, indicating that he did not want to encounter any risks.
In the past, Zhang Xuezhou was used to repeatedly traversing alone, but now that Ren Anran, who was on her first traversal adventure, had joined him, the situation was completely different.
Even the slightest oversight could put Zhang Xuezhou and his companions in danger in the void.
"This place is great," Zhang Hao interrupted the discussion. "Forget about the zodiac, I'd love to come here every now and then!"
Zhang Hao looked into the distance, towards Huang Daoxian, who was lying on a boulder in the far distance.
Not to mention Huang Daoxian's astonishment, Zhang Hao had never seen such a massive Spirit Vein mine before. This space had clearly changed, becoming different from what he had seen before.
He was somewhat pessimistic about his situation, but the environment of the Sinkhole No. 2 invigorated Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao mentioned that he needed to continuously enter and exit the Sinkhole No. 2 for cultivation, and also mentioned that Huang Daoxian was in a similar situation to himself, which put everyone at ease.
Zhang Huang, standing to the side, was also extremely excited. He usually only had fist-sized Soul Jade for nourishing his spirit, but this space was now filled with far more than just Soul Jade.
"This is simply the place Yu has always dreamed of!"
After muttering something to himself, Zhang Huang also strode towards the area of giant rocks ahead.
"What a powerful knife!"
The boulder emanating Spiritual Qi can be seen from a distance, while the Wind and Thunder Blade can only be seen upon entering the altar area.
Instead of rushing to find a place to cultivate, Zhang Hao first observed the surrounding area and paid close attention to Ren Anran's reverse journey back to the Three Realms. He also noticed the Wind and Thunder Blade and the Five-Colored Divine Stone placed next to the altar.
The Five-Colored Divine Stone has five colors and looks somewhat eerie, while the Wind and Thunder Blade exudes a direct sense of power and violence.
Zhang Hao had seen many divine weapons and treasures. The Shang Dynasty, which was ruled by the human emperor Zhou, was defeated by various treasures from the Immortal Court. Even the great demon king Yuan Hong, who had attained sainthood in his physical body, was killed.
He had seen top-tier Law Treasure and had even possessed powerful artifacts himself, but the Wind and Thunder Blade still gave Zhang Hao a sense of danger.
While Zhang Hao's current lack of strength is certainly a factor, the Wind and Thunder Blade must also be ridiculously powerful to give him this feeling.
"Holding the Wind and Thunder Blade requires a certain level of skill in Wind Avoidance Instruction; otherwise, it's easy to get cuts and bleed when you reach for it, let alone use it!"
Seeing that Zhang Hao was interested in the Wind and Thunder Blade, Zhang Xuezhou gave a brief explanation and mentioned that he had not yet found a way to use the Wind and Thunder Blade and could only rely on brute force to chop.
"This sword possesses unparalleled Demon Power. Its owner has mastered the power of wind, and his strength should surpass mine in the past!"
Zhang Hao muttered to himself before reaching out to grasp the Wind and Thunder Blade. A stinging pain shot through his hand, and he couldn't help but sigh before extending his right hand.
"Either you forcefully control this sword using the Wind Avoidance Instruction, as you said, and then use it for slashing," Zhang Hao said. "Or you need to achieve harmony with the sword's internal power, so that you can truly unleash its power through your body!"
"I'll give it a try... Damn it, this piece of junk doesn't even want me!"
Upon hearing the news, Zhang Huang tried his hand at it, then dropped the Wind and Thunder Blade with a pained expression, clutching his right hand and sitting back down near the giant Spirit Stone. This prompted Huang Daoxian, who hadn't even moved, to bark mockingly in response.
"If you don't need it, just leave it here. Just don't let anyone take it and use it against us!"
Zhang Xuezhou didn't care much for the Wind and Thunder Blade. He had never used any top-tier treasures in his life, and he had decided to slowly cultivate the Poison Tree Staff. He wouldn't devote any effort to studying the Wind and Thunder Blade, which he couldn't use.
"An Ran, get ready. We'll begin guiding your soul through the journey in about fifteen minutes!"
The Wind and Thunder Blade was left aside. Zhang Xuezhou lay down quietly, waiting for the time travel, while Ren Anran nodded and began injecting the Heavenly God General potion.
The pain in Ren Anran's face was evident in her furrowed brow, but with the application of the Supreme Purity True Technique to a specific area, she gradually stopped showing signs of pain.
A phantom emerged from her body and lay down beside the altar just like Zhang Xuezhou.
