Chapter 1501 The Change at Wanlingkou [Guaranteed Two-in-One]

At this moment, Dongfang San San felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from her heart.

A smile couldn't help but appear on his face.

That feeling of 'the dust has settled and the mission is accomplished' was so reassuring and satisfying, a feeling that Dongfang Sansan had rarely experienced in his life.

"It turns out that having your heart at ease feels so comforting."

Dongfang Sansan is very satisfied.

Looking at Fang Che, a hint of satisfaction flashed deep in his eyes: Well done!
Fang Che's speech was partly polished by Dongfang San San. In reality, the situation on the mainland wasn't as serious as Fang Che described. It was Dongfang San San's revisions and slight exaggerations that made it seem as serious as Fang Che's account.

At this moment, what Dongfang San San wanted to win over was not the hearts of the high-ranking guardians present, but the unity of the hearts of the entire continent.

Fang Che's words would have been far more effective than Fang Tu's if anyone else had said them!
Because this is a hero who has just been promoted and a model who has recently been established, and moreover, he is a hero who has been spontaneously promoted by the people—a hero who has been praised and promoted by the people themselves, unlike Xue Fuxiao who has been promoted by himself!

Xue Fuxiao Rui Qianshan is a distant god.

Fang Che is the hero by my side!
These are completely different concepts!

Since Yunlanjiang, Fang Che's story has been circulating endlessly across the mainland. Twists and turns upon twists... this is exactly what the public loves.

In particular, the story of a hero being wronged, then exonerated, and even further redressed, aligns with people's most beautiful fantasies and their hopes for a better life.

Thus, a massive movement to create a god spontaneously took place among the people of the entire continent without intervention from the higher-ups of the Guardians.

Today, the heroes spontaneously chosen by the people are upholding justice for them, advocating for them, and striving to fight for their right to speak and their right to survival!
Those who haven't experienced it can hardly understand the fervor in people's hearts! It's a feeling of 'it was all worth it!'

This move, which Dongfang San San had been preparing, struck a chord with the people, and when it was executed by Fang Che, it directly penetrated the hearts of the people at the bottom of the mainland!

The passion it ignited... no, it shouldn't be said to ignite, but rather to 'explode'!
The enthusiasm on the mainland was like a huge explosion!

At this moment, Fang Che was completely elevated to a god-like status!

And the guardians' fortune has also coalesced into an unprecedented unity!
A hysterical outburst!
The foundation that Dongfang Sansan had painstakingly built over ten thousand years suddenly boiled over at this moment, and then soared into the sky, realizing the hope that Dongfang Sansan had looked forward to all his life!
Especially the fact that it brought about the revival of God—something that Dongfang San San could never have dreamed of before.

He simply wanted to open the secret realm to increase the guardians' combat power and strength.

But unexpectedly, this leap forward requires first facilitating the revival of the Flying Bear God in order to unlock the secret realm!
Although it was a lucky accident, after learning about Dongfang San San's many years of preparation and efforts, one will find that it was inevitable!
Faced with a hopeless war, who can hold out for more than 10,000 years!
He groped in the dark, unable to see the light, yet he continued to walk in the right direction for over ten thousand years!
We've finally made it this far.

Admittedly, this is taking advantage of the Fang Cheyun Lanjiang incident, exploiting the hearts and minds of mainlanders, and manipulating human nature.

However, this is Dongfang San San's method and weapon.

At the moment when the gods achieved true revival, the energy that followed, continuously nourishing the entire continent, left Dongfang San San without the slightest regret or shame.

In fact, even if he hadn't succeeded, he wouldn't have.

Feeling relieved!

Like drinking fine wine.

Like a person who is about to die of thirst finally drinking from a sweet spring!
At this moment, although he was still sitting in the meeting room, his heart had already flown to the Furnace of Fortune, and had already flown to the ends of the earth.

He's currently considering one thing: who can enter this secret realm this time?
Are there any restrictions?
Should only the guardians go in, or should the members of the Sovereign Church also go in?

How to do?
The Guardians and the Sovereign Church are destined for a life-or-death battle. Allowing the Sovereign Church to enter now is tantamount to seriously aiding the enemy! For the lives of the billions of people on the Guardian Continent, this is tantamount to committing heinous crimes!

However... there is a prerequisite: the Serpent God has descended, and the continent must defeat the Serpent God!

Only if they win will the Guardians and the Sovereign Church have a chance to fight the ultimate battle.

If we can't win, then let's just destroy the continent!
So Dongfang San San was pondering this matter. After immense happiness, he was once again plunged into immense pain—an incredibly agonizing choice.

No one can bear this kind of pain for him.

No one will even know!

Dongfang San San was thinking, struggling, extending her thoughts, considering every step she would take in the future...

If we really defeat the Serpent God, how much damage will opening the secret realm cause to the Guardian Continent?
If they don't give it to him... is it possible for the guardian to defeat the serpent god with only his own power?

What Dongfang San San didn't know was that while the luck on this side suddenly exploded, in another mysterious space, Xue Fuxiao and Duan Xiyang were also facing a severe test!

Wanlingkou.

Xue Fuxiao and Duan Xiyang have been fighting fiercely here for so many days. Each rest time is less than half an hour. The two of them have killed countless strange monsters. Not only their hands, but even their hearts are numb from killing.

The strange Seven Emotions Crystals were constantly being collected and consumed, continuously increasing the cultivation level.

But those monsters seemed to be endless.

No matter how many times you kill them... you can't kill them all!

It seems like there are more and more of them.

Fortunately, the two of them had improved their strength considerably during this time, so they were becoming more and more at ease: as long as the monsters' strength did not increase and the two of them continued to improve, they would eventually kill them all and close this place again!

Now, these two most powerful figures, one righteous and one evil, are filled with endless regret about this hunt at Wanlingkou.

The two of them were furious: Who would have thought that coming here this time would lead to them being stuck here and unable to go back?
So many monsters kept rushing out.

Their skills are all so high!

Once the two of them leave and the cave entrance is opened, this continent will be finished.

But if we don't leave, these things are endless. What should we do? Am we just going to spend our whole lives here?
And why the hell is the Wanlingkou sealed off? Didn't it always seal off automatically after killing a portion of the inhabitants before? Why didn't it do that this time?
Where's the automatic shut-off?
And these things can't be eaten... which makes it even more frustrating: after being killed, they turn into those crystals!
The enormous mountain of flesh was completely destroyed, leaving only a tiny bit.

If you want to eat some meat, you have to eat what you brought yourself.

Just as their luck suddenly erupted, Xue Fuxiao and Duan Xiyang were taking advantage of a rare moment of free time to rest, panting heavily.

I have to say, I was really exhausted.

"Old Duan, how much food did you bring in?"

Xue Fuxiao asked.

Duan Xiyang's thin face was filled with frustration: "We still have plenty of food and drink, enough to last for decades, but how do we calculate time? Are we not going to leave?"

Xue Fuxiao didn't stand on ceremony: "I didn't bring much, so give me some wine, give me some food, all kinds of things!"

Duan Xiyang retorted angrily, "What, do I owe you?"

"Just tell me whether you will give it or not!"

"..."

Duan Xiyang tossed over a spatial ring, which indeed contained quite a few things.

Xue Fuxiao immediately accepted the gift and said, "If things continue like this, the battle will be easier. We should be able to free up some time. One of us can hold off the two of them while the other goes out hunting, or we can set up a grill to roast some meat and have something fresh and hot to eat."

Both of these rings share one characteristic: they are not temperature-controlled. You can keep things inside, but you absolutely cannot make them go in piping hot and come out still piping hot at any time.

That kind of thing is rare, but the main reason is that the two of them felt it was unnecessary: ​​they were both people who could easily drink on the battlefield with millions of people, so why would they need something so fancy?
But this time... I really needed it. Mainly because my diet has been too monotonous lately...

Duan Xiyang said, "Hmm, it used to be very difficult for us to kill one by ourselves, but now... it's much easier. It's good that someone can take turns grilling the meat... Damn!"

Before he could finish speaking, his eyes, which were barely visible in their sockets, suddenly widened.

The thick white mist at the cave entrance was slowly thinning, and the cave walls were even visible!

To the disbelief of the two, the opening had actually expanded by a third!

"Holy crap!"

Duan Xiyang cursed, "Xue Fuxiao! You jinx! Why did you mention how easy it is for one person to deal with two sides... You son of a bitch..."

He stood up while cursing and picking up the bone spear.

Even someone like Duan Xiyang couldn't help but get furious. Xue Fuxiao had the same reaction: a look of utter disbelief and utter bewilderment!
Because this cave entrance, which originally only allowed one monster to pass through at a time, has been expanded to allow two monsters to pass through at once!
As for what Xue Fuxiao just said: one person can handle both sides, giving the other person time to grill meat.

It's as if his words became law!
Now one person has to deal with both sides!
The pressure suddenly doubled!
Xue Fuxiao was completely dumbfounded: "This... I don't have that kind of ability at all..."

But as they spoke, two monsters squeezed in at the same time, and the same thing happened on Duan Xiyang's side, two of them!

The two men simultaneously unleashed their weapons, and the endless, fierce battle began once again.

Duan Xiyang continued hitting and cursing, "You don't have that kind of ability, but how long have we been working here? It's always been just one of us! Now, with just one sentence from you, two have appeared! How do you explain that!?"

As Xue Fuxiao brandished her sword, she roared, "How can you blame me? If I were capable, I would have made sure none of them got out!"

As soon as Xue Fuxiao uttered these words, the two fought while looking expectantly at the cave entrance, hoping that Xue Fuxiao's words would once again come true.

But the two were disappointed: the prediction did not come true!

Duan Xiyang was extremely annoyed. He was already fed up with the endless fighting here. Now, Xue Fuxiao had turned one person into two, and it seemed even more impossible for him to leave.

So he began to curse Xue Fuxiao.

Xue Fuxiao felt a little guilty: Could it really be that I shouted it out?
So I guess I'll just have to bear with it...

But as they fought, they wondered to themselves: How did it become two?

After a great deal of effort, the two finally killed the four monsters, which turned into four crystal cores. But before they could even catch their breath, four more roared and charged out.

"Damn it..."

Duan Xiyang was utterly speechless! Not only had the number of times per session increased, but the intervals between sessions had also shortened. If this continued, wouldn't he be worked to death here?
They were truly murdered.

However, Duan Xiyang also knew that this was probably a coincidence. If Xue Fuxiao really had this ability, she would have chopped him into seven or eight pieces long ago...

But where did this coincidence come from? There must be a reason, right?

The two fought while observing their surroundings.

However, there was not a single clue.

We're collecting more and more crystal cores, but we can't digest as many as we collect...

Taking advantage of his rage, Duan Xiyang ate more than a dozen 'rage' crystal cores, and sure enough, they dissolved more easily when he was in a fit of rage.

His eyes lit up, and he became even angrier, cursing Xue Fuxiao as he ate.

To be able to curse one's mortal enemy and still consume a crystal core to increase one's cultivation level, that's really... not bad.

Duan Xiyang kept rambling on, and Xue Fuxiao was puzzled: Old Duan isn't usually like this, isn't he? Why is he going on and on with his rant? What's going on?

In the midst of his busy schedule, he turned around and saw Duan Xiyang angrily cursing while constantly eating crystal cores.

His eyes lit up, and he burst into a tirade: "Duan Xiyang, you pig... Who are you calling names! I'm about to explode..."

So they started eating the crystal cores too...

Enveloped in the thick fog, the two had no idea what was happening outside, so they cursed and cursed as they hurried to eat while fighting monsters...

After a day of bickering, Duan Xiyang suggested, "Praise me! The more praise you give me, the more I'll be overjoyed."

Xue Fuxiao was speechless for a moment: "..."

He pinched his nose and said, "Then you have to praise me too, and we'll eat together."

"..." Duan Xiyang was speechless for a moment.

After a long pause, he pinched his nose and said, "...Okay."

So the two started praising each other, but this time, the crystal cores they swallowed weren't digested... because they both felt: This is absolutely disgusting...

I'm not happy at all, damn it!
It would be awkward if it wasn't digested.

But the two of them had experienced this kind of unresolved situation many times before, so they remained calm and composed.

They all had a smug look on their faces.

bang bang bang...

The two were engrossed in their frenzied battle, slaying demonic beasts and monsters, when suddenly, with a loud bang, a blade of light and a spear of light collided in the space between them, producing a deafening roar.

Xue Fuxiao looked embarrassed, and so did Duan Xiyang.

Having finally slain these monsters, Duan Xiyang asked with a dark face, "You haven't digested it either?"

Xue Fuxiao retorted angrily, "You praised me in such a disgusting way, how can I be happy?!"

Duan Xiyang's face darkened: "You're praising me well?! Your praise makes me want to vomit."

Neither of them spoke.

Two more monsters emerged from their respective cave entrances.

Amidst the sounds of fierce fighting, muffled groans were heard.

a long time.

Duan Xiyang asked, "How much of it is undigested in total?"

Xue Fuxiao paused for a moment: "Less than a thousand."

Duan Xiyang coughed and said, "It's over nine hundred?"

Xue Fuxiao: "Nine hundred and sixty."

"I'm 970."

Duan Xiyang said.

Neither of them looked well.

They were all a little embarrassed, since the substance hadn't been digested and could only come out in a normal human way. Of course, forcing it out of their mouths with spiritual energy would work, but that would be even more disgusting...

Duan Xiyang said, "After this is over, I'll give you all the leftovers that I haven't finished."

Xue Fuxiao gagged and asked, "What?"

Duan Xiyang said, "Give them to Rui Qianshan as well, to help him improve his strength."

Xue Fuxiao: "..."

After a long pause, he said in a muffled voice, "...Okay."

There was silence for a moment.

Sudden.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The two burst into laughter, overjoyed. They quickly seized the opportunity and each swallowed a handful of 'Joy' crystal cores.

But the laughter continued unabated: "It's digested, hahaha..."

After a while, the two were pleasantly surprised to find that they had actually digested several crystal cores. Rui Qianshan's energy was so strong that mentioning him could actually increase their cultivation!
And they continue to be happy.

After a long while, Xue Fuxiao smiled and asked in bewilderment, "Old Duan, what did Rui Qianshan do to offend you? Why do you hate him so much? He's no match for you anyway."

Duan Xiyang's face darkened completely. He said, "And what about you? Rui Qianshan is your good brother. What did he do to offend you that you hate him so much?"

Xue Fuxiao snorted: "That guy is too despicable."

Duan Xiyang deeply sympathized: "...I remember back then, before I had mastered the White Bone Shattering Dream Spear, I was no match for Rui Qianshan. Sigh..."

Even someone like Duan Xiyang sighed when he brought up this past event.

Xue Fuxiao immediately understood: It seems that Lao Duan was actually bullied quite badly by Rui Qianshan back then? But why hadn't Rui Qianshan mentioned this before?
Given Rui Qianshan's personality, he should be boasting about this achievement.

But Duan Xiyang was clearly unwilling to continue. With a dark face, he brandished the White Bone Shattering Dream Spear and continued to slay monsters, his attacks becoming increasingly brutal.

Xue Fuxiao asked several times but couldn't get an answer, so she could only say, "Then don't forget to give it to me when you're done."

"Okay." Duan Xiyang agreed very readily.

"Give me tens of thousands more sets, that would be fine too."

"roll!"

At the Guardian Headquarters, a grand meeting is being held; at the headquarters of the Righteous Cult, people are constantly lining up to kill each other; deep in the starry sky, Little Bear is absorbing and giving back; and Duan Xiyang and Xue Fuxiao are constantly killing monsters at the Hunting Grounds.

And in another place.

It should be deep within the Earth's core.

A mysterious surge of energy rushed into the Earth's core.

Suddenly, a strange sense of life slowly revived.

It was slow, yet continuous; it was the feeling of spring arriving, of everything coming back to life, of tender green shoots emerging from the ground...

It is endlessly captivating.

Life slowly spread across the entire continent. The entire continent resembled a giant that had been dead for millions of years, its muscles having turned to jade, and a faint trace of crimson appeared in its blood.

In some mysterious place deep within the Earth.

Two men in black sat cross-legged, one in the south and one in the north.

Like two stone statues, they stood motionless, completely blending into the boundless darkness.

The moment that aura was released.

The two of them opened their eyes at the same time.

Even from a distance of thousands of feet, they could see each other's eyes shining like stars.

His gaze was like lightning, bringing a sense of brightness to the deep darkness.

One of them said softly, "It begins."

The other person paused for a moment, sensed the surroundings again, and slowly said, "It seems that it has begun."

The man in black opposite said, "It's actually... true!"

The other man in black remained silent.

After a moment, he said, "Still too weak!"

"It's good that it's started."

"Yes."

"wait."

After a brief exchange, the two fell into a long silence once again.

In total darkness.

Their eyes closed again.

Like stars suddenly going out.

Once again, utter darkness returned.

Throughout the entire continent, including the Guardian Continent and the Sovereign Continent, if anyone were paying attention, they would notice that faint white mist rises from the depths of the endless mountains and forests.

That's... the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!
It spread from the earth, gradually entered the air, and was blown in all directions by the wind.

It was faint, but persistent.

same.

In countless cities and towns, faint wisps of spiritual energy also emerge from the ground. However, due to the large population and noise, these wisps of white mist are covered and disturbed, causing them to dissipate quickly as soon as they emerge from the ground, making them completely undetectable!

Moisturizing is silent.

Apart from the two people at the Earth's core, no one noticed that from this moment on, this continent had truly... become somewhat different.

……

The conference is in progress.

After Fang Che finished speaking, he once again entered a state of silence.

In the eyes of others, Fang Tu was expressing his dissatisfaction: Why are there so many people who deserve to die but have not been killed because of their ancestors' merits?
Since life and death are intertwined, then no one is exempt from being killed!

Therefore, it is a pity that one could not achieve complete success.

That chilling murderous aura made everyone ashamed to face him. No matter how upright and honest their own conduct, what about their own descendants? They hadn't gone back to see them after all…

Before the afternoon meeting ended.

Fang Che requested leave: "Because the spiritual energy is mixed and my true spirit is surging, my divine sense is somewhat chaotic. I would like to ask for leave to deal with my own problems."

As the coordinator of the conference, Feng readily agreed.

And it eliminated any possibility of anyone else taking leave: "No one else is allowed to take leave! If you really need to take leave, go find Master Jiu!"

Many people who wanted to ask for leave looked embarrassed and swallowed back what they were about to say.

Feng Congrong's words had a deeper meaning: Do you think you are Fang Tu?
Cough, I'm not Fang Tu. My descendants are more likely the ones Fang Tu would want to deal with... Tsk, I won't invite them.

Fang Che was the first to walk out of the venue.

Before me stood a slender figure in flowing white robes, her bright eyes gazing at me.

It was Zhao Ying'er.

Fang Che sighed inwardly; it had finally come.

Since recovering from his injuries, Fang Che has avoided meeting Zhao Ying'er because he simply doesn't know what to say to her.

He felt a sense of unease about Zhao Ying'er's passionate feelings.

This vigilance comes from instinct.

Dongfang San San had mentioned twice whether or not Zhao Ying'er should rejoin the team, but after much consideration, Fang Che still refused Fang Yunzheng.

But now it's finally inevitable that we've met: ever since Zhao Ying'er returned from Dragon Island, she's been living at the Guardian Headquarters.

This is unavoidable.
