Building a City

A stray dog—that's how Emperor Lin described himself at this moment.

For many years, Emperor Lin had never experienced this feeling again.

And yet, a tiny human being allowed him to experience it.

Under normal circumstances, it would be a pipe dream for the missiles launched by the Firmament to hit a Tribulation Transcendence expert.

However, after being bombarded by a wave of mushroom bombs, Emperor Lin's strength has also declined significantly.

Furthermore, the constant radiation within his body tormented him, which ultimately prevented him from escaping the missile's pursuit.

A familiar explosion, a familiar impact, a familiar strange energy invading the body.

This forced Emperor Lin to abandon his hatred for Yi Xuan and flee the area with his tail between his legs.

Meanwhile, Yi Xuan, who was 10,000 meters above sea level, also saw the red dot in the sea quickly disappear into the distance.

"They're finally gone!"

Upon hearing Yi Xuan's words, Xing Qi, looking tense, slumped into his seat.

He never imagined that he could survive the attack of a powerful being who had Tribulation Transcendence.

It's a pity that North Wave City and East Yan City were destroyed by Emperor Lin.

He would never have the chance to boast to his men about everything he had just experienced, and thinking of this, Xing Qi couldn't help but feel sad.

Although almost no one who has cultivated to his level would act on emotion.

But humans are not plants or trees; how can they be without feelings? Countless people in the two cities have followed him for many years.

But in less than an hour, they were separated by death.

Yi Xuan naturally noticed Xing Qi's low spirits; wasn't he feeling the same way?

Millions of lives were lost just like that!

Although they were mostly Sea Clan, that still represents millions of lives.

Yi Xuan knew that if it weren't for him, they would never have suffered this undeserved disaster.

Guilt welled up in Yi Xuan's heart as he looked at the sea below.

He wasn't a saint, but he couldn't remain indifferent to the deaths of millions.

Just like when facing the evil deeds of the Blood Asura Gate, Yi Xuan may appear calm on the surface, but his heart is actually in turmoil.

His gaze slowly drifted into the distance, in the direction Emperor Lin had left.

With a resolute gaze, Yi Xuan secretly vowed in his heart that he would use the life of the Emperor Lin to appease the millions of souls below.

As for Xing Qi, although he was saddened, he was more open-minded than Yi Xuan. After all, he had built his strength step by step in this environment, so his understanding of the law of the jungle was naturally deeper than Yi Xuan's.

After wiping his face a couple of times and unbuckling his seatbelt, Xing Qi stood by the window, looking down and said, "Brothers, have a safe journey!"

Because of the nuclear explosion, the sea below was now filled with radiation.

Originally, Xing Qi had planned to go to East Yan City to check, hoping that there might be survivors from Emperor Lin's long-range attacks.

But Yi Xuan stopped him.

Entering the waters below now is practically suicide.

Even though cultivators have physiques far superior to ordinary people, they still dare not be careless when facing radiation.

As for the underwater base, they can forget about going back anytime soon.

Due to the effects of the mushroom bomb, everything electronically related to the entire base was paralyzed.

In other words, even Yi Xuan now cannot remotely control the underwater base, and even observing the situation inside the base has become a luxury.

As for the underwater army and testing equipment left behind by Yi Xuan, they were all paralyzed.

Adding to the damage to the Aerospace Mothership, Yi Xuan's losses this time are simply incalculable.

After navigating the Firmament away from that area of water, Yi Xuan randomly chose a small island to land the Firmament.

With a wave of his hand, Yi Xuan's Artifact Sect Great Hall instantly unfolded on the surface of the island.

Having lost so much, Yi Xuan's fighting strength is clearly insufficient and needs to be replenished as soon as possible.

Fortunately, there were still quite a few things in the Artifact Sect Great Hall, enough for Yi Xuan to arm himself with sufficient combat power in a short time.

However, replenishing the Aerospace Mothership could not be accomplished in a short time, so Yi Xuan could only order the Evil Corpse from the Xia Kingdom to participate in this task.

Considering that Emperor Lin's injuries were quite severe, and that nuclear radiation is not so easy to remove.

That's why Yi Xuan didn't choose to return to the mainland, but instead continued his activities in the Eternal Sea.

Seeing Yi Xuan busy in the Artifact Sect Great Hall, Xing Qi, who had nothing to do, suggested going to a nearby Sea Clan city to gather information on his own.

After all, although he had previously sent his men to investigate and found out that Hai Qing Song had been taken as a disciple by a powerful figure in Sea Emperor City, he had no idea who that powerful figure was.

In other words, Yi Xuan and Emperor Lin fought for a long time, but neither of them even knew the other's name.

As for Emperor Lin, Hai Yue had actually reported Yi Xuan's name to the emperor, and his eldest disciple had also informed him.

But Emperor Lin thought that they were just mere Human Clan and not worthy of him remembering their names.

As for Yi Xuan, he was unaware of the other side's situation simply because of poor intelligence gathering.

A few days later, Xing Qi learned about the situation in a nearby Sea Clan city.

He and Yi Xuan also learned of the existence of the Emperor Lin!

"Emperor Lin?"

"That's right! In Sea Emperor City, anyone who reaches the Tribulation Transcendence Realm can be called an Emperor, which is the origin of Sea Emperor City! It is said that Emperor Lin is also a veteran Tribulation Transcendence, and his strength should be in the Late Tribulation Transcendence! However, this time Emperor Lin fled back to Sea Emperor City in a sorry state, causing a great uproar among the Sea Clan!"

Yi Xuan had anticipated this, and he even believed that the nuclear explosion had caused a significant shock not only to the Eternal Sea but also to the entire Cultivation Realm.

Although Yi Xuan led Xing Qi away from that sea area, the Starlink above were still monitoring that area.

In just a few short days, countless Sea Clan and Human Clan have gone to investigate.

However, because of the immense power of the nuclear explosion, only highly skilled cultivators were sent to assist.

Faced with nuclear radiation, their Sea of Consciousness would instinctively produce warning signals, so everyone was observing from the outside and no one had yet gone deep into the investigation.

After these few days of turmoil, Yi Xuan's combat strength has been replenished to a certain extent. Although he may still be somewhat stretched when facing the Tribulation Transcendence, he should have no major problems with those below the Tribulation Transcendence.

In recent days, Yi Xuan has also had some ideas about the follow-up plans in the Eternal Sea.

So, after Xing Qi returned, Yi Xuan took the initiative to ask, "Do you still have any intention of continuing to be the city lord?"

Upon hearing this, Xing Qi nodded repeatedly, as if his head were being drummed.

He then asked curiously, "What? Are you planning to help me take over a city nearby?"

Yi Xuan was finally certain of Xing Qi's attitude: this guy was a city fanatic, his desire for cities was so intense.

However, taking over a city was far from what Yi Xuan had envisioned.

"Didn't you want to build a city in the trench I modified? How about I build one for you?"

Upon hearing Yi Xuan's suggestion, Xing Qi's face practically radiated excitement!
