Staying in Touch

"Xixuanmi and the ability to hear are very unique. It would be great if we could stay in constant contact with them!"

Before reaching the True Self Realm, Zhang Xuezhou needed to constantly change vehicles, such as Airbus, which limited his speed and flexibility, making it impossible for him to repeatedly travel to Qinmeng.

After sending Hu Hao back to the research institute in North Rehe, Zhang Xuezhou could only look into the distance and sigh.

But if even he is in this situation, then the situation of Demon Lord Hu Yu is even more obvious.

Each has its own limitations. The eldest brother can't laugh at the second brother. What Zhang Xuezhou finds difficult to do, Demon Lord Hu Yu would find equally difficult to do after losing his Cloud Wings.

Zhang Xuezhou's trip to Qinmeng was purely due to Hu Hao's unexpected communication. Without that communication, Zhang Xuezhou felt he should have stayed in North Rehe to conduct research and study, thus laying the foundation for his True Self self in the Three Realms.

Once Zhang Xuezhou has experienced entering the True Self Realm, the difficulty of replicating it will be greatly reduced.

Zhang Manqian emerged from the Sinkhole No. 2 to study Hu Hao's bloodline, while Ren Anran remained inside the Sinkhole No. 2.

In addition to avoiding accidents caused by spatial factors and the Yang Soul Body, Ren Anran's divided soul also needs Spiritual Qi to maintain and recuperate, so as to prevent serious accidents from occurring.

At this time, only Zhang Xuezhou and Ren Anran were in the Sinkhole No. 2.

Listening to Zhang Xuezhou recount the story, Ren Anran couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.

"Compared to me going to them, they'd probably rather find me," Zhang Xuezhou said. "We'll run into each other again sooner or later, and Xixuanmi still has the power of Dingkui and the Spider God Liaomeng's Principle. He's in a difficult position right now, caught between a rock and a hard place. If he exposes everything, he'll probably be beaten to death by the other Fire Meteor cultivators!"

"This Demon Lord Tiger Feather is too powerful. If it weren't for your ability to be fast and slow, and the support of the Void Heaven Palace, there would have been almost no chance of getting close!"

"I've always wanted to strip away the world's fundamental power from his body, but it's not that easy. Unless he deliberately sets a trap or gets injured, the world's fundamental power won't even show itself. I think it's very difficult to use special materials to guide the release of the fundamental power, and there's a lack of opportunity to steal it," Zhang Xuezhou said. "And the bigger problem is that I don't know how many times I'll have to try to succeed!"

"You used the Grain Avoidance Instruction to refine the world's origin, but didn't gain similar abilities?"

"No, perhaps the world's essence I obtained this time was a hazy aura, not as pure as last time. I didn't even notice any influence!"

Zhang Xuezhou obtained the power of the world's origin for the first time, and with the help of Xuanming, he gained the ability to successfully refine the world's origin. He also felt as if he were being freed from his constraints, like being bathed in a spring breeze.

However, he did not experience anything special when he obtained the power of the world's origin for the second time.

Perhaps his body had adapted, or perhaps the world's essence that Demon Lord Tiger Feather displayed at the time was relatively thin, thus having a weak effect on Zhang Xuezhou.

Zhang Xuezhou even felt that his method of refining the world's origin was wrong, but he had no other way to refine it. During the struggle, he couldn't possibly calm down and spend years or even decades slowly studying it and waiting for the world's origin to give him the transformation.

"If only the fundamental forces of the world between you and him could be balanced, or at least have the same effect!"

Ren Anran was helpless.

When faced with something beyond one's capabilities or knowledge, all wisdom becomes useless.

Any reasoning, logic, or deduction needs to be based on a certain level of understanding, but the origin of the world has already exceeded normal imagination.

In human research, geological changes require tens or even hundreds of millions of years of accumulation to form mineral veins, while changes in the origin of the world can instantly lead to the transformation of oceans into fertile land.

This change is even a qualitative transformation, like turning a piece of charcoal into a diamond in an instant.

The two have the same composition, but their functions and values are vastly different.

"We're already doing quite well," Ren Anran comforted him. "He's the one with a headache, not us!"

"That's true!"

Zhang Xuezhou nodded.

While the goal may seem difficult to achieve, the one who should be even more troubled is Demon Lord Hu Yu.

Despite having seized the greatest opportunity in this world and gained unimaginable power, Demon Lord Hu Yu is not having an easy time.

The Demon Lord Tiger Feather is indeed unsolvable in this world, but Zhang Xuezhou has gathered the development achievements of another world, which has even gone through the successive development of Houtu and Hongjun, two advanced cultivators, and is completely different from the primitive world that needs to be pioneered.

This confrontation, stemming from their differing stances, will continue until a clear winner is determined.

Has Zhang Huang returned to China? What did he say about the Tiger Feather incident?

"I messaged Zhang Huang, and he said that the Yu he knew was definitely not like that. Yu taught him everything and even lost his life while fighting the Fire Meteor cultivators. It's impossible for him to be so cold-hearted as to slaughter the Qinmeng Empire!"

"It's good that you're not involved!"

Zhang Huang's current strength has not yet reached its peak. Like Zhang Hao, Zhang Huang is currently unknown, but his close combat ability is still top-notch and has an irreplaceable supplementary effect on the Gene Sequence.

Right now, everyone's goal is outward; no one wants to see internal conflicts arise. Eliminating problems is a good thing for everyone.

"Try sparring with Zhang Huang as much as possible. It's not that we're afraid of something being fake, it's that we're afraid it might be real," Ren Anran said after thinking for a moment. "If you can arm wrestle with Hu Yu in the future, getting used to Hu Yu's fighting style beforehand will definitely be beneficial!"

"That's what I think too!"

Regardless of whether Hu Yu was the 'feather' who once taught Huang, there is no harm in Zhang Xuezhou seeking sparring and exchange of skills.

It's always better to be prepared than to be caught off guard; it's always better to be safe than sorry.

"I attempted to break through to the True Self Realm ahead of time, but lacking the Yang Soul Body, I couldn't unlock great Divine Ability, and it was difficult to fuse and advance. Take a look at my record of failed attempts to break through to the True Self Realm, and see if you can learn anything from it!"

"Don't push yourself too hard, I'm fine. I'll definitely break through to the True Self Realm this time, so it should be foolproof!"

The most taboo thing in spiritual practice is unfamiliarity. When faced with a situation that has never been seen before, Ren Anran took the lead in wading through the water to test it and also recorded some of the problems she encountered.

Zhang Xuezhou took the recorded information and read it several times.

Although he was very defiant, Zhang Xuezhou had previously used the Yin-Yang Two Qi Bottle to simulate and eliminate errors, and he did not have a guaranteed path to success.

This information was extremely important to Ren Anran. Regardless of whether there was overlap in the information or only some errors could be eliminated, reducing any error would increase his chances of success.

As long as he regained consciousness in the Three Realms, he would go to the Yin-Yang Secret Land of Mount Tai. Zhang Xuezhou stopped running around and settled down.

Unless there is any special information, Zhang Xuezhou will only wander back and forth between the Sinkhole No. 2 and the B13 Research Institute.

"Xixi Mi said that the Demon Lord created an ice castle in the Straits Bay, surrounded by frigid air. Stones falling into it would shatter upon freezing. There are also black whirlwinds in the sky; those who collide with them will be cut into pieces. Xixi Mi said he might be setting up a real trap for you, or he might be causing destruction to change the entire world!"

It wasn't until Zhang Xuezhou was about to return to the Three Realms that he received Montes Badun's belated reply.

Thanks to the cooperation of Xixuanmi and Diting, Badun was found and Zhang Xuezhou was contacted again, providing the latest information regarding the Demon Lord Tiger Feather.
