Chapter 563 Bomb Bomb Bomb! (12,000 words)

Zhao Xing snatched the note and looked at it, only to find that there were only three words: Zhizhenlou.

He looked at the man in black robes with a puzzled expression. The man explained, "The intelligence on this crisis has been classified as dangerous because it was leaked by Zhizhen Tower."

Danger level?
Zhao Xing frowned. Crisis intelligence comes in many forms, and Shadow Temple usually only notifies high-level clients when it reaches a dangerous level.

The last time the Lord of Cold Food Festival descended, it was considered an extremely dangerous situation, which generally means a high mortality rate.

"Zhizhen Tower wants to kill me?" Zhao Xing thought of Lianyin Divine General and was puzzled. Zhizhen Tower was just a place to obtain intelligence, and he had never heard of it taking on assassination jobs.

"No," the man in black said calmly, "but it is information that leaked from the Zhizhen Tower."

"A deputy leader sold the news that Qingyuzi was in the Great World of Yanyi to Qiongyu Divine General of Xitian Divine King City."

"Based on the relationship between the client and Qingyuzi, and the fact that the Boundless True God had taken action in the Great World of Yanyi, the Temple deduced that the high-level client was likely near a source of danger, and thus issued a crisis warning."

“The elm seeds were so significant that they attracted a large number of pursuers.”

"The force dispatched this time is only Xi Tian Shen Wang's side, but there are no fewer than thirty Divine Generals."

"Once the manhunt begins, the client's identity will inevitably be exposed, leading to a more intense manhunt and pursuit."

"The number of God-General level personnel has doubled, and it is even highly likely that a God-King will descend."

"Therefore, the Shadow Temple advises the client to immediately flee from Qing Yuzi's side."

After hearing the crisis intelligence, Zhao Xing was speechless.

Unexpectedly, Bowei was right. When he and Qingyuzi, two troublemakers, got together, it only caused more trouble.

There are no fewer than thirty divine generals who came to hunt down Qingyuzi alone. If they discover his existence during the pursuit, there will definitely be more divine generals, and it may even attract the attention of a god-king.

The Shadow Temple's suggestion was not without merit.

"Old Qing has not reached the second level of Divine Concealment and must rely on the Realm of Annihilation to hide. My Shadowless Netherworld Technique has not reached the second level either, so it is impossible for me to be completely hidden."

"The crisis intelligence shouldn't be too inaccurate." Zhao Xing remembered the last crisis intelligence, which said that the Lord of Cold Food had appeared, and he really did appear. Although there were some errors in the details, the general direction was correct.

Zhao Xing had long been mentally prepared for the pursuit, and now that he knew about it, he was not flustered at all.

"Have the forces pursuing us already locked onto us? How much time do we have left to prepare?"

"At most three days," the man in black said calmly.

"understood."

Zhao Xing nodded, his mind piercing through the whirlpools and returning to reality.

He immediately called Qingyuzi back to discuss countermeasures.

"Damn Zhizhen Tower!" Qingyuzi cursed, "I knew these shady characters were no good; they don't follow any rules!"

“How many bounties do we have on us? The stakes are high enough that they can simply change their tactics and operate elsewhere. Let’s not talk about that now. We can settle our revenge later. First, let’s figure out how to get out of here,” Zhao Xing said.

“If the secret were leaked from Zhizhen Tower, you and I would probably be locked down.” Qingyuzi took out the fate plate that Lianyin Divine General had given them. “Ordinary objects are fine, but this thing is a fate plate of a fate master. It’s very easy for them to find us.”

"In three days, can you set up a world teleportation array in the Storm Sea and escape?" Zhao Xing didn't know how to set up arrays, and he didn't have that many secondary professions, but Lao Qing did. He had reincarnated many times during his Reincarnation Realm, so he could act as an array mage.

“Three days is not enough.” Qing Yuzi shook his head and said, “No matter what, this is a cross-dimensional formation, it will take at least seven days.”

"What if they abscond through the regular channels?"

“Then there’s no need to even think about it.” Qing Yuzi pointed outside: “The entrance to the boundary wall of the Nirvana Realm is very difficult to break through, and breaking through it would cause quite a commotion. As for the regular entrances and exits, there are definitely people watching them.”

"Now there's only one way out: fight a battle in the Storm Sea and buy some time to escape."

Zhao Xing remained silent, lost in thought.

Qingyuzi waved his hand and said, "Don't even think about summoning the Boundless True God."

“You’re someone’s subordinate, not his own son.”

"We can't trouble the Boundless True God with everything. Besides, you've come out to gain experience, so you should try to solve things on your own first."

"From another perspective, even if they come to take me now, there's a limit to how many people they can muster. Thirty Free God Generals, along with some powerful treasures, should be about enough."

"At this level of combat, we have the choice to fight or flee."

"If the Boundless True God intervenes, the level of the battle will inevitably rise, and then our fate will no longer be in our hands."

"Every favor owed is a favor owed; let's use the 'Dan Shu' (a kind of imperial favor) once."

Zhao Xing also felt that Qingyuzi's words made a lot of sense.

Furthermore, Bowei stated that this battle is a battle within the closed loop of fate, so summoning the Boundless True God and escalating the battle would be inappropriate, and the Boundless True God probably knows this as well.

“I don’t really want to use the Dan Shu (a magical scripture), it’s too precious. What do you think of this?” Zhao Xing used World Projection, and seven bamboo trees appeared in front of Qing Yuzi.

Qingyuzi curiously placed her hand on the bamboo, then pulled it back as if she had been electrocuted, and then gasped.

"Hiss! Don't tell me this thing is a firecracker!"

"It's firecrackers."

"My God, how did they raise them?" Qingyuzi was shocked.

"This is the masterpiece of the Penglai God General, nurtured using divine soil and divine treasure techniques," Zhao Xing said.

"He said that within 30,000 world units, even a peak-level Divine General would need to possess a Great Dao Divine Artifact to withstand the explosion of the Mother Bamboo. However, there are only seven Mother Bamboos, and each one used is one less."

"The Penglai Divine General? Is he the disciple of the Ksitigarbha God King on the Cosmic Ship?" Qingyuzi's expression was strange: "I've heard of him. It's said that he loves peace, is quite kind-hearted, and likes to raise small animals."

“The old man really likes keeping small animals. There’s a walrus that I’m waiting to rescue in the future,” Zhao Xing shrugged.

"Can you guarantee the power of the firecrackers?" Qingyuzi was still somewhat incredulous. "Have you ever set them off?"

"I've never blown one up. But the God of Penglai has blown up many gods in an endless loop. He even blew himself up many times in order to test the best power of firecrackers."

"..." Qing Yuzi was speechless. Rumors are really just something to listen to and not take seriously. If you really believed that the Penglai God General was a kind person, you wouldn't even know how you died.

“Alright, let’s try blasting a few plants. If that doesn’t work, we can use the Elixir Book,” Qingyuzi said.

"I'm going to create a deployment space in the Storm Sea right now. You can plant firecrackers around it."

"Have you ever heard of the Stormy Breathless Array? There's a reason why I've been hiding in the Stormy Sea. This timing array assists the Wind God Domain and can interfere with perception; even divine sense can be blown away."

"The Twin Mirrors can reflect time and space. After your firecrackers explode, they can be used to create a second imprint, allowing the explosion to be repeated within a certain range."

"It's alright, this is a void-type artifact, which is a one-time consumable."

"Fry them twice, whether everyone is here or not."

"Just to be on the safe side, I still have some..."

"..."

After a brief discussion, a sinister laugh echoed from inside the ship.

……

Outside the Stormy Sea, at this moment, Qiong Yu, the grandson of the Xi Tian God King, arrived at the boundary marker outside the Stormy Sea with his men.

Qiongyu God General sat atop a chariot drawn by a strange beast, gazing expectantly at the Storm Sea.

"This operation is the largest arrest operation I have ever led."

"The God King City's Soul Crossing Division, Divine Martial Division, Heavenly God Guard, Craftsman God Division, Eight Star Academy, and various other departments have a total of thirty-six divine generals and eight hundred and fifty divine soldiers. They have also mobilized three top-grade divine artifacts."

"This force, while not invincible, is more than capable of capturing Qingyuzi."

"If this is accomplished, I will become famous and can then rightfully ask my grandfather to establish a divine kingdom in the Great World of Yanyi, my own divine kingdom!"

"At that time, it wouldn't be impossible for them to swallow up Zhizhen Tower."

Recalling the graceful dance and captivating voice of the Lotus Sound Goddess, the Jade Feather Goddess couldn't help but feel her heart stirred.

To wield power over the world while awake, and to rest one’s head on the lap of a beautiful woman while drunk – that is the true freedom of a god!

"Your Highness Qiongyu, the Fate Plate's signal is located within the Stormy Sea." At this moment, a figure appeared beside the chariot. "Relying on its signal, we can quickly locate our target."

Qiongyu Shenjiang glanced at this person, who was none other than the deputy master of Zhizhen Tower: "Yinxuan, if this matter is accomplished, I will keep my promise."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Yin Xuan presented the other destiny plate in his palm, then calmly bowed and took his leave.

Qiongyu Divine General drew his longsword, holding the Destiny Plate in one hand and pointing the sword at the Storm Sea with the other, exuding high spirits: "Action!"

"Roar~" A purple crystal beast shaped like a centipede roared and pulled the chariot.

However, its sound was quickly swallowed up by the endless storms of the Storm Sea.

Woohoo~
Amidst the howling winds, the capture team swiftly entered the stormy sea, heading in the direction indicated by the destiny chart.

"They're coming." When General Qiongyu led the various deities of Xitian Divine King City into the Storm Sea, Zhao Xing and Qingyuzi felt a sense of unease.

Qing Yuzi, who was busy on a piece of black earth in a blue space, couldn't help but pause.

He jumped to the edge of the land, in front of a mirror.

The mirror reflected a blurry image, with only lines moving throughout—these were some early warning artifacts he had hidden in the storm.

After Qingyuzi made some adjustments, the various magical artifacts transmitted back some clear images.

Zhao Xing also ran over to observe.

The mirror reflected a rotating wind tunnel, from which flew a chariot surrounded by beast armor.

The leading mythical beast resembled a centipede, with boiling nebulous blood and blood inside its shell. Its thousands of abdominal legs were like bronze counting rods, and wherever it went, it carved divination patterns in the gale.

The centipede has four broken, luminous wings growing from its two sides of its back, but these are actually man-made magical artifact wings.

The left wing has a black hole above it, and the right wing has frozen solar prominences, with pale white flames leaping around them.

With a gentle flap of its wings, the endless gale on the left was swallowed up, while the windstorm on the right froze.

"The Tongyuan clan, a divine beast, is a specialty of Xitian Divine King City." Qingyuzi smiled at Zhao Xing. "Because they are very difficult to raise, these war divine beasts don't usually show themselves. They really think highly of me."

"The Divine Beast Tongyuan?" Zhao Xing had also heard of this kind of divine beast. They had two famous talents: one was to be good at suppressing space, and the other was to be good at devouring the power of barriers.

Tongyuan's Thousand Legs can suppress the void by hundreds of feet, making it impossible for enemies to escape by entering the void layer on the battlefield.

Divine beasts often possess talents superior to those of humans. Even at their peak, the Free God General would find it difficult to escape into the void in front of Tong Yuan.

Only a true god could do this, even in front of Tong Yuan, he could still escape into the void and teleport away, because a true god is stronger in terms of controlling the origin of heaven and earth.

The talent to devour barriers is even rarer. As long as one can lie on a barrier, a Tong Yuan can drain a barrier dominated by a small to medium-sized high-level divine artifact within three days. Even top-grade divine artifacts can be affected.

Tongyuan is known as a war beast, but it also needs a guardian to cooperate with it. Tongyuan itself is not strong in defense and is not flexible enough.

Therefore, the Tong Yuan that Zhao Xing sees now is protected by people, and is also wearing layers of defensive armor.

"Those four next to him should be Xi Tian's Divine Guards, the divine guards beside Xi Tian, ​​the Divine King. They even transferred four of them to his grandson."

As Qingyuzi cast his spell, even more images appeared in the mirror.

Beside Tong Yuan, there were four figures: three wielding weapons, including swords and spears, and one shirtless.

They all have two blood-red horns on their foreheads, but those are divine objects.

The two horns connect to the thick, black and blood-red armor he wears, and there are faint silver scales on the exposed skin of his arms.

The four of them standing there resembled a majestic sacred mountain.

"With Yuan Tong, we will almost never bring the God of Arrays again. Among the remaining divine generals, there is one Fate Master, two Ministers of Agriculture, and one Priest who deserve our attention."

Qingyuzi watched as the group passed through his warning artifacts. After they passed through, the warning artifacts were also detected by the two officials in charge of agriculture.

One of the gods of agriculture coldly crushed the small warning artifact, while the other handed it to the fortune teller behind him and turned to observe Qingyuzi.

His gaze was clearly fixed straight ahead, as if he were looking at Qingyuzi through a mirror.

As for the priest behind the Divine General Qiongyu, he was always painted with strange golden oil paint, had chicken feather-like decorations on his head, and kept his eyes closed.

"Being able to keenly detect magical artifacts deliberately placed in the wind amidst the stormy sea, these two officials must be agricultural deities from the Celestial Timing Sect!"

"The number of agricultural gods under the Tian Shi faction is limited, and even the Xi Tian God King doesn't have many. These two have reached the level of god generals, and they should be the Li Feng God General and the Xue Yu God General who often go out to fight."

Qingyuzi, having spent many years in the outside world, has a very clear understanding of the ins and outs of various forces.

Through the mirror, Zhao Xing could not observe their information on the panel and had no idea who these people were.

"Did this fortune teller see us?" Zhao Xing asked. The fortune teller in the mirror was opening and closing his mouth.

The mirror's spirit also revealed some writing:

"Qingyuzi, you are surrounded. Surrender now and submit to Princess Qiongyu, and you may have a way out."

Qingyuzi sneered.

"He might be able to sense it, but he can't see through it. He's just putting on an act."

"Otherwise, his words should have been imprinted on me through the Twin Mirrors, imprinting the fate of surrender into my divine body."

"The two officials in charge of agriculture and the Heavenly Guards are the ones we should be most wary of."

"As for that little priest next to him," Qingyuzi pointed to the one next to Qiongyu God General.

“The priesthood has declined; there’s no need to concern ourselves with it.”

Qingyuzi winked at Zhao Xing.

“Okay, I understand,” Zhao Xing replied with a blink.

…………

"...The priesthood has declined and need not be concerned."

Qiongyu sat on his chariot, while the fortune teller 'Youbo' beside him held a fortune plate and played out the 'gossip' he had captured.

"Hahaha." Upon hearing this, General Qiongyu burst into laughter. "Uncle You, this Qingyuzi is truly ignorant, hahaha."

It's no wonder that General Qiongyu mocked him, because the priest beside him had quite a lot to say.

First is the Seven Gen Feathers, which correspond to the seven major regions in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

This means that the person next to him is the strongest priest of the Seven Realms among the divine generals!

The ritual of worshipping the gods can proceed unimpeded in all seven regions.

The God-Kings have wide connections, and many of them are friendly with the Xi Tian God-King City.

The seven feathers also represent the ability to borrow the divine power of seven god-kings, including Xi Tian Shen Wang.

It can be said that Qiongyu Divine General's greatest reliance is this Seven Domains Priest - Night Soul Divine General.

“It’s normal that he doesn’t know about the Seven Domains Priests, since all those Ye Po has seen who have made a move are dead,” said Master You Bo. “However, Your Highness should not underestimate Qing Yuzi, as he has managed to escape from the City of the Bookless God King.”

“He already sensed that we were coming to arrest him, yet he still dared to say he would kill us. He must have something to rely on.”

"Don't worry, Uncle You." General Qiongyu nodded: "Qingyuzi, an evil god, is worth such a high bounty. He even stole the secrets of the Wushu God King City. He must have treasures on him."

“I did not underestimate him; on the contrary, I valued him highly, which is why I brought so many people over.”

"After capturing him, first interrogate him about the secrets of the evil god's side, such as who is infiltrating and what their plans are. Then ask about the secrets of the Bookless God King City. I heard that he has even been inside the Bookless Heavenly Secrets Pavilion. We absolutely cannot miss this opportunity."

In General Qiongyu's plan, killing Qingyuzi to claim the bounty and make a name for himself was just the final step.

The value of the elm seed cannot be lost until it is fully exploited.

"Uncle You, what's the situation now? Has he been frightened away by your destiny-prediction technique?"

Half a day later, General Qiongyu asked again.

“No,” the fortune teller shook his head. “However, we discovered that Qingyuzi has three hideouts in the Storm Sea.”

“Each hideout is protected by celestial timing techniques, formations, and artifacts.”

“They are not close to each other. According to my estimation, if he completes the teleportation array inside, he is very likely to escape. There is only one point where he is really present.”

"They're deliberately creating a diversion to force us to divide our forces." General Qiongyu sneered, "You little devil, you have a lot of tricks up your sleeve, but none of them make any sense."

Qiongyu Divine General has enough manpower; if he were to divide the hideouts into three hundred locations, he would have some worries.

But if it's only three places, it's not very meaningful.

Stormy Sea is not a long-established stronghold or a temporary hideout, and it cannot be used to delay for too long.

No matter how you look at it, Qingyuzi has no chance of escaping his grasp.

……

On the very first day after receiving intelligence about the crisis, before even meeting the person in question, the contest had already begun.

On the first day, Zhao Xing watched as Lao Qing blatantly lied. He clearly recognized the Seven Domains Priest and secretly instructed himself to deal with him first, yet he deliberately gossiped and belittled the priest's existence.

At the same time, he said that the main targets to be wary of were the two gods of agriculture and the four warriors, but in reality, the main target of their discussion was Tong Yuan.

The actual competition began the next day.

Qingyuzi dug out land from the Grand View Realm and built three hideouts, densely setting up arrays.

The storms in the Storm Sea are mobile, and the source of the wind wreaks havoc, so the hideout that Lao Qing built is also mobile, in order to buy time.

“Borrowing the momentum of heaven and wielding the power of heaven, the storm disaster in the Storm Sea is seen by the Minister of Agriculture of the Heavenly Timing Faction as momentum and power.”

"The two agricultural officials from the Heavenly Timing Sect dispatched by General Qiongyu are also controlling the wind disaster."

"You can imagine that I and Qiongyu's group were standing on the same blanket, except that they were chasing and I was running."

"Now these two ministers pull the blankets back, causing the source of the storm sea's winds to gather towards them."

"If they gain the upper hand, they'll save time finding me; if I gain the upper hand, I can buy myself more time." Qingyuzi taught Zhao Xing while casting her spell.

Zhao Xing guessed that Lao Qing would show off more, because gods of the Tian Shi School are rare, so naturally he would show them off more.

Moreover, the green elm seeds did indeed have the 'upper hand'.

Originally, the battle was supposed to begin in three days, but he managed to delay it by an extra day.

In this way, with seven days to set up the formation, if they can gain another three days, they will be able to successfully escape and leave the dangerous world of the Great World of the Jade.

The fourth day has ended.

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

The two fake hideouts were easily breached by the divine beast Yuan Tong brought by General Qiong Yu.

A large amount of soil, spiritual energy, array materials, and more than a dozen divine power towers, as well as the Yin-Yang Star, exploded out.

Although it was a fake den, Qingyuzi put in real effort because a fake can become real at any time.

When buying the materials for the World Array, he purchased three sets and set them up simultaneously, hoping to see which one could hide the enemy the longest. The ultimate key to the array lies in the World Heart on the pendant, which drives it.

Qiongyu Divine General did not divide his forces, so by the time he finished destroying the two fake dens, it was already the fifth day.

On the sixth day, the fortune teller 'You Bo' next to the Divine General Qiong Yu suddenly received a bad omen.

He immediately sent a telepathic message to General Qiongyu: "Young Master, the situation has changed. My predictions have included a major calamity at the hour level. Although it is not continuous, it is not a good sign."

"What do you mean? Does Qingyuzi still possess the power to resist us?" General Qiongyu frowned.

It is speculated that Qingyuzi was only at the late stage of the Divine General realm, and he only had one attendant of the Divine Soldier level.

He did not underestimate Qingyuzi. Tongyuan could suppress the void hundreds of feet high, which meant he had already anticipated that Qingyuzi possessed a powerful escape artifact.

The existence of the Night Priest is to prevent things from going wrong unexpectedly, and to prevent Qingyuzi from having a one-time consumable item like a divine artifact with the power of a god.

“We’ve calculated this repeatedly during his journey to the Burial God Cave,” General Qiongyu said, somewhat displeased. “Now you’re telling me that capturing a Qingyuzi might lead to disaster?”

"Yes." Although the words were harsh, Master You Bo remained steadfast in his duty. "I suggest abandoning this operation."

Qiong Yu's face immediately turned extremely ugly. Although he was the eldest grandson and had a prominent status, he was still a very important person.

However, his father was still alive and was performing exceptionally well, so it was impossible for Xi Tian Shen Wang to delegate power to his grandson over the sake of his outstanding son.

Moreover, there is more than one legitimate grandson, and Qiongyu has an older brother above her, so the power and resources she can allocate are not that great.

He had fought hard for an opportunity to unite all the gods in this operation.

Is it going to be abandoned halfway through?

He asked reluctantly, "Uncle You, I know your divination style is known for its prudence; you don't recommend taking action unless there's an 80% chance of success."

"Just tell me, how confident are you now?"

Uncle You held out one hand: "Sixty percent."

Qiongyu Shenjiang was somewhat stunned. He had mobilized so many people to capture Qingyuzi, but when it came to the final moment, the situation was only 60/40.
“Wealth doesn’t compete with power. Young master, you are of noble status, there’s no need for you to gamble.” In the eyes of fortune teller You Bo, even a 60% chance of success is already a gamble.

However, in Xi Tian Divine King City, the Fate Master only offered suggestions; whether or not they were adopted ultimately depended on General Qiong Yu, as he was the one who issued the orders. After some thought, General Qiong Yu said in a deep voice, "Uncle You, I have decided to continue our actions."

"From now on, you don't need to worry about anything else. You just need to calculate for me where the missing 30% is located."

"Yes."

……

The time has come to the seventh day, at the hour of Chou (1-3 AM).

"Zhao Xing, it's your turn!"

Qingyuzi sat in the center of the magic circle, rubbing a pale blue ball of light in his hand, his body appearing as a double image.

"They will catch up by 3 AM at the latest."

"We absolutely must not let them enter the small world."

Zhao Xing, who had been resting with his eyes closed to adjust his state, opened them, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "Understood."

Even without observing through the mirror, Zhao Xing could vaguely sense in his mind that Qiong Yu's chariots and warships were traveling through the wind tunnel outside the 30,000 world units.

shuh~
Zhao Xing appeared at the edge of the small world.

On the rocky outcrop, a strong wind howled, and the robes of the Time and Space Valley Rain Dharma Master fluttered in the wind.

One shadow after another emerged from beneath Zhao Xing's feet, growing wildly like seedlings, eventually coalescing into a towering tree.

The Law of the True Self, the Law of the Cangwu World!
It slowly extended beyond the small world, spreading across the surface of the hurricane-strewn rivers.

It looks like a large tree lying across a river in a hurricane.

Then the shadow spreads and lengthens, expanding the area of ​​control over the inner world.

Large amounts of soil have surfaced in the hurricane river, making it appear as if a real river has appeared there.

Meanwhile, plant units continue to emerge, but their highest level is only legendary.

"A divine radiance from a realm, a divine seed of the void!"

The spells of the Primal School caused these troops to undergo a crazy transformation, leaping to the level of gods.

Their lifespans have all been shortened to about seven days. This is the price of forcibly breaking the shackles of life. The Divine Flower Method and the variant method have burned away all their potential.

These original species, born within the inner world, number over three hundred at this moment, have all briefly reached the divine level, which is also the limit of Zhao Xing's abilities.

However, these were all just a facade, and were nothing to fear from General Qiongyu's team.

Zhao Xing expended his strength to mutate the plant simply to conceal the four firecrackers hidden among the more than three hundred soldiers.

"Of the four firecrackers, one is rooted in the Hurricane River, and the other three are hidden in the Cangwu World Law."

Zhao Xing then held the scroll in his hand. If the firecrackers still couldn't repel the enemy, then the scroll would be his last resort.

As time passed, Zhao Xing, having finished arranging everything, stood quietly on the outskirts of the small world.

When the seventh day arrived at midnight, the Divine General Qiongyu finally caught up.

A ship with 850 divine soldiers on board, and at the stern is a creature with a deep gaze, with four divine guards standing beside it.

Behind Yuan Tong was a hundred-armored chariot, on which stood Qiong Yu Divine General and some other divine generals.

"Huh? Has Qingyuzi gone mad? He actually sent a late-stage Divine Weapon to guard outside. What's the difference between that and sending him to his death?" Fate Master Youbo frowned and began to calculate.

However, General Qiongyu had no intention of waiting for his advice and immediately ordered 850 divine soldiers to attack, intending to break through Qingyuzi's small world in one fell swoop.

Now, General Qiongyu knows that if they delay for even a second longer, Qingyuzi could very well escape through the teleportation array.

The world teleportation array is something even Yuan Tong cannot stop.

"kill!"

Eight hundred and fifty divine soldiers jumped off the divine ship, all wearing fire-source divine armor and wielding flaming divine spears.

They were all free gods who had cultivated the essence of fire. In the stormy sea, the essence of wind fueled the essence of fire, and the endless flames suddenly surged. The eight hundred and fifty divine soldiers, like a divine dragon composed of flames, instantly swept across tens of thousands of world units and rushed towards Zhao Xing.

Eight hundred and fifty divine soldiers immediately deployed their Flame Divine Domains. Their divine domains intertwined, clearly indicating that they had been trained with some kind of combined attack formation.

Those of the same level would normally disdain using divine domains in battle, since divine domains at the divine weapon level, unless they are spacetime or causal divine domains, are all roughly equal in rank to the original divine domains of metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, and thunder.

When facing a true god, the self-existent god has no advantage in this regard, so in general confrontations, the divine domain is never used.

However, the divine domain composed of 850 divine soldiers is already comparable to the divine domain cast by a divine general.

Facing the more than three hundred divine trees blocking the outside of the small world and Zhao Xing, who is at the late stage of the Divine Weapon realm, they can be used to bully them.

After all, plant soldiers are usually made of wood, which is countered by fire. In order to win the battle quickly, the 850 divine soldiers completely pushed the divine domain combination to its limit.

"Woohoo~"

From a distance, this stream of flames resembled a fire dragon on the outside, while inside it was a huge spear.

The divine realm, combining strength and gentleness, instantly ignited divine fire, causing the temporary, mutated plants that had been set up along the way to wither and turn to ashes one by one.

In such a situation, let alone a late-stage Divine Weapon cultivator, even a Divine General wouldn't dare to take it head-on.

However, Zhao Xing did not back down.

"At this moment, those divine generals in Qiongyu are still on the edge of the firecracker's power. We must let them go a little deeper before setting it on fire."

"Nine Ze God, transform!"

Woo~
The world of flames was instantly torn apart, revealing a figure with purple hair but a silver, metallic-looking body and eyes that seemed to spit fire. A massive hand, like a mountain, stretched across the ground, its palm swirling with black light, completely blocking the small world behind it.

"Nine Ze God?!" Both the Li Feng God General and the Xue Yu God General looked at the enormous Nine Ze God in the distance with some surprise. As members of the Tian Shi Sect, Hou Bianfa was their specialty, so they naturally understood that this was a human transformed into a human.

"Could someone with such powerful reforms be another god of agriculture and the celestial order?"

“That shouldn’t be the case. We both had to make special requests to the Ancient Heavenly King to become the God of Agriculture. Where would there be so many Gods of Agriculture in this era?”

"This Nine Ze God's aura is so strong, it has reached the mid-stage of the God General realm. Oh, I see, so he used a divine artifact."

Both the Fiery Wind God General and the Blood Rain God General could see that there were nine needles inserted into the body of this Nine Swamp God, forming the main spine.

This is why the Nine Ze God's appearance is closer to human form than beast form.

"I didn't expect Qingyuzi to have such a guard, but he'll still die!" General Qiongyu said coldly.

Eight hundred and fifty divine soldiers were the elite troops trained by their Xi Tian Divine King City. These free gods all chose the same origin from the moment they became gods.

With shared understanding, common origins, and the same secret techniques, their combat power is absolutely astonishing.

"Boom!!!"

Like a giant hand sweeping across, the black vortex in its palm constantly exerted a pulling force, tearing at the Fire Source Divine Realm.

The laws of the Cangwu World also assisted at this moment, causing the Flame God Domain to shrink smaller and smaller, its outer parts to be torn to shreds.

No matter how much the flames escalated, the world projection and the giant hand of the Nine Gods were always able to block them.

They clashed and ended up in a stalemate!
"Huh? This isn't the divine realm of the Nine Ze Gods, but a kind of world law!" Blood Rain God General and Wrathful Wind God General were somewhat shocked.

"How can someone cultivate to the level of a god general using Hou Bianfa, and at the same time possess such a powerful world law? Is his inner world also at the god level?"

They realized they had misjudged the other party's background. When they first saw the Nine Ze God, they thought he was from the Heavenly Timing Sect, since having the power of the Heavenly Timing God would make cultivating Hou Bianfa twice as effective, otherwise it would be twice as ineffective.

However, after seeing the other party's world law, he changed his mind. The strength of the world law depends on the size of the world within the body.

If the other party is not the God of Agriculture of the Primal School, but only cultivates world law, how could he be so strong?

"Roar!"

The Nine Gods roared continuously, and the flames did indeed cause Zhao Xing excruciating pain, but this also aroused his ferocity.

"I have cultivated diligently for many years, and even the God General Xu Feng was defeated by me. How could I not defeat these small fry in one blow?" Zhao Xing was also shocked by the quality of the divine weapons of Xi Tian Divine King City.

In his view, even a large number of divine-level weapons would still be a rabble.

After all, he had already defeated General Xu Feng in Shenji City.

"I have been studying the balance of the three schools of agriculture, and now I can use the world law and even the land law at the same time while performing the Nine Ze Divine Transformation."

"But does that mean we have to use our full strength just to fight against some divine weapons?"

Zhao Xing could still use mountain magic and underground palace magic at this time, but this would make it easy for him to be exposed.

Similarly, after two collisions, they were locked in a stalemate, leaving even the Martial God General, who commanded 850 divine soldiers, somewhat shocked.

"A single Divine Weapon-level being, after Hou Bian, managed to withstand the combined attack of my 850 Fire Source Gods?"

"Burn your divine power! This is your first time serving His Highness, you must win, you cannot afford to lose!" The God of War roared telepathically.

In reality, the only people directly under the command of Qiongyu Divine General were Xitian Divine King City and these 850 divine soldiers; the rest were just there to assist.

The only ones who truly shared glory and disgrace with General Qiongyu were him and the 850 divine soldiers.

This is their first time fighting against Qiong Yu, the young master. They can't afford to lose face on their first battle.

"Kill!" The eight hundred and fifty divine soldiers in battle formation went completely berserk, burning their divine power.

"Die!"

On Zhao Xing's arm, innate runes flowed, and he unleashed a barrage of divine skills, including the Short Void Claw, the Myriad Tribulations Golden Marrow, and the World-Burning Eye.

Eight hundred and fifty divine soldiers continuously burned their divine blood, causing Zhao Xing's Nine Ze Divine Body to fly with its hair and flesh.

With a swing of the Void Claw, the armor on the 850 Free Gods shattered, and fragments of armor flew everywhere.

Both sides were fighting desperately, but even with their divine power burning, they still couldn't overcome the obstacle of the Nine Gods.

Eight hundred and fifty divine soldiers were firmly blocked outside the small world at a distance of fifteen thousand world units.

"Your Highness, let us make our move," said the Divine Generals Lifeng and Xueyu.

They initially disdained to attack a mere late-stage Divine Weapon, but as time passed, the possibility of Qingyuzi escaping increased, and besides, the Nine Ze Gods before them had piqued their interest.

"withdraw!"

The 850 divine soldiers immediately turned around and retreated back to the divine ship.

Zhao Xing also took the opportunity to retreat.

He retreated not because he was afraid, but because he wanted Qiongyu's team to get closer.

"Oh, this beast can even tell the difference between power and danger." Seeing Zhao Xing retreat, Li Feng Shen Jiang thought it was due to his and Xue Yu's intimidation.

Zhao Xing completely ignored the other party's provocation, transformed back into human form, and continued to crush the tokens.

"Om~"

Eighteen suns floated out from inside the small world.

Upon closer inspection, all eighteen suns were found to be imprisoned inside a lantern.

"The origin of the aurora?"

"It's the Qian Yuan Ten Cold Formation!"

Both the Wind God and the Blood Rain God stopped, because the space-time in front of them had already entered a season and had become extremely cold.

The primordial energy within his body became stagnant, and the Heavenly Timing Formation countered the Heavenly Timing Sect's Minister of Agriculture.

They are not so easy to get through.

As soon as Blood Rain and Wrathful Wind God Generals approached, Zhao Xing attacked; if they didn't get close, he couldn't break the Qian Yuan Ten Cold Formation.

"Qingyuzi is only ranked over three hundredth on the new God Ranking, but he has a lot of money. Everyone uses this kind of magic array in their own territory, but he actually carries it with him."

"Your Highness, this is a life-saving formation that Qingyuzi bought. Only Tongyuan can break it in the short term," Blood Rain God General and Lifeng God General reported to Qiongyu God General.

Just as Qiong Yu was about to give orders, Master Youbo transmitted his voice, "Your Highness, please untie the chariot's lasso and let Yuan Tong and the Four Divine Guards go."

"What do you want to say?" Qiong Yu asked, frowning.

"I always felt that the servant next to Qingyuzi was not simple, as if he had a great background, but I couldn't find out his origins or figure out who he was."

“Uncle You, it’s already this late, are you still making me wait?” General Qiongyu said, “You also said that we can only capture Qingyuzi within seven days. He has bought countless defensive treasures. We must take him down in one fell swoop now. If we wait any longer, he might escape. Wouldn’t that be a laughing stock?”

Divination by fortune tellers has always been a reference for war, not a decisive factor.

Seeing that Qiongyu was determined to go all in, Uncle You had no choice but to continue consulting the astrologer, hoping to quickly arrive at the answer that was on the tip of his tongue.

"All the main gods, mobilize them and take him down in one fell swoop!"

Qiongyu, the divine general, led the charge, driving his chariot forward.

The distance of 30,000 world units was quickly halved.

At this moment, Uncle You's heart suddenly started pounding violently, his eyelids twitched, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

He suffered a severe backlash, coughing up blood with a splatter, his spirit turning black, and his eyes becoming lifeless.

He still forced himself to look at the bloodstains on the ground, where he saw two words formed from the bloodstains: Zhao Xing.

A faint red glow emanated from the dark, murky bloodstains, and within that glow, there seemed to be a mountain formed by a cluster of clocks.

At the very top of the mountain stands a strangely shaped standing clock.

"Tick tock~"

Uncle You heard such a sound.

Then there is no more then.

His divine essence began to be annihilated by the backlash.

In the final moment, he saw something shatter, all the wind stopped, and a fiery red and gold light simultaneously illuminated the space inside the cabin.

"What's going on? The Fire Source Divine Weapon has intervened again... The golden one must be the Seven Domain Priests' move. Sigh, I should have escaped..." These were You Bo's last thoughts.

……

As Qiong Yu approached, Zhao Xing did not hesitate to set off the firecrackers left behind by the Penglai God General.

In the ruins of the sacred tree that had been burned to ashes, a black bamboo, seemingly ethereal, quietly appeared.

The firecrackers, turning a deep reddish-black, signify that their fiery essence has been condensed to its extreme. At the same time, they have been imbued with a dark essence by the Penglai deity to conceal their divine power—another form of mystique surrounding plant life.

Firecrackers have nine segments, and when each segment breaks, it's as if even space itself is shattered.

The Abyss Eye, which suppressed the void hundreds of feet high, had its thousand feet shattered due to the explosion of the void, starting from the bottom foothold and continuing all the way up to the torso.

Before the piercing screams could even begin, they were swept away by the second wave of spacetime explosion.

Everyone was too terrified to react.

After the nine-section firecracker exploded, the area of ​​the Storm Sea, which was worth over 200,000 world units, was completely cleared, replaced by a deep darkness.

An even larger spacetime explosion was spreading outwards, and Zhao Xing dared not detonate a second one.

He discovered that although he had used a directional blast, his side still generated a strong echo.

Zhao Xing always thought that the Penglai God blowing himself up was a deliberate test, or an exaggeration.

He doesn't think so now.

He transformed back into his Nine Ze God form and took out divine artifacts such as the Golden Wheel and the Golden Jade Divine Water for defense.

The aftershocks of the explosion broke through more than a dozen defenses and even destroyed the Qian Yuan Ten Cold Formation, but still reduced its Nine Ze God body to just a skeleton.

Even the skeleton is still burning!

"Zhao Xing, what's wrong with you? If you can't stop it, you should at least say so beforehand... Ouch!"

As Qingyuzi emerged from the violently shaking little world, she saw burning skeletons and a scene of apocalyptic destruction.

"Heaven sends down sweet rain, and the good water is revived!"

"disease!"

Qingyuzi waved his sleeve, and the cloud and rain patterns on his sleeve shimmered, quickly enveloping Zhao Xing.

"Chichi~"

The heat was intense, yet the skeleton continued to burn.

"My God, it can't be put out?"

"What kind of fire is this?"

The elm seeds intensified their efforts, and the sweet rain, as if it were free, transformed into a torrent.

Finally, he managed to rescue the skeleton of the Nine Gods.

It's burning hot.

"If you're like this, then what about Qiongyu and the others... um? Are there still any alive?"

Qingyuzi immediately scanned the area ahead.

Amidst the exploding debris in the distance, a chariot gleamed, and a majestic golden figure protected it.

It was cut by countless spatial fragments mixed with destruction and flames, yet it remained unaffected.

"The priests of the Seven Realms borrowed the divine power of a god-king, and there are still four survivors on that chariot."

"No, we have to run!"

Upon seeing this, Qingyuzi immediately abandoned his plan to finish off the enemy.

He immediately led Zhao Xing into the crumbling little world.

His body transformed into a series of afterimages, quickly activating the magic array, and finally placing the pendant within it.

"I don't know if the forced expulsion method can directly enter the body. The most important thing now is to get out of there."

"Zhao Xing, you'd better not play with firecrackers anymore. That Penglai God General is a monster... I told you that being able to cultivate firecrackers to god level isn't so fun."

As he chanted, bursts of blue light emanated from the ground around Qingyuzi, swirling around him and a skeleton like fireflies before quickly disappearing from the spot.

"Oh!"

The small world could no longer hold on and was destroyed by the aftershocks of the continuous impact.

When Zhao Xing woke up again, he felt only one word: pain!

He recalled the moment the firecracker exploded. His first feeling was heat, and then all his primal senses were reduced to a minimum, leaving only fire, chaotic spacetime, and destruction!
When the explosion caused the destruction of spacetime, Zhao Xing knew he was in trouble and immediately put away the world projection to prevent the remaining firecrackers from exploding as well.

He then quickly took out his divine artifacts to resist, but after seven or eight artifacts collapsed, he had no choice but to use the divine body of the Nine Ze Gods to defend himself.

"You're awake?" Qingyuzi walked over carrying a jar.

Zhao Xing looked up and saw that he was lying in an ice coffin, surrounded by bottles and jars, and smelled a lot of medicine.

"Where am I?"

"Inside the black ring," Qingyuzi said, "As for the larger place, I don't know where it is, but we should have arrived at our destination. Look."

"Hmm?" Zhao Xing saw Qing Yuzi summon a water curtain, and in the distant starry sky, there lay a huge corpse, almost enough to fill the First Void Ancestral Star System of the Origin Heavenly Palace.

"The original plan was to teleport directly into the body of God King Yuheng, but there was a slight deviation," Qingyuzi said. "At that time, I saw that someone was still alive, so I didn't care about anything else."

"There are still people who can survive?" Zhao Xing's eyes widened. He hadn't even taken the main force of the firecracker, and he was already injured like this.

"What's so strange about that? The Seven Domains Priest next to Qiongyu can borrow the power of the God King, so it's normal that he survived. But the others weren't so lucky. Anyway, when I came out, I only saw four still alive."

"The Penglai God General is fucking freakish." Qingyuzi tossed a towel aside and said with some emotion, "This firecracker is the most powerful one I've ever seen."

"The Ksitigarbha God King of the Ancient Hill actually managed to cultivate such a disciple... I always thought that the Ksitigarbha Dharma was just an auxiliary method for farming, but I never imagined it would be so powerful."

"I didn't expect this either." Zhao Xing smiled bitterly. He was still unable to move and didn't know how serious his injuries were.

After looking at the panel, he was shocked to find that his 100,000-year lifespan had disappeared, his True Spirit and Holy Body were both damaged and seriously injured, and his Luck had temporarily dropped to the 20th level.

"Don't get up. It will take you another hundred or two hundred years to make up for it." Qingyuzi said, opening the ice coffin, draining the old medicinal liquid, and pouring in new medicinal liquid.

Zhao Xing felt itchy all over his body, and granulation tissue was constantly growing into nodules.

"Lying here like this isn't a good idea. Is it possible to send messages from here?"

We must let the Boundless True God know that we are safe.

“Alright.” Qing Yuzi waved her hand, and a jade plate appeared on the ice coffin. “We’re both celebrities now, and the Shadow Temple has raised our rankings by several levels. As for the bounties… take your time to see them, but don’t play around for too long.”

"Get well soon, I'm waiting for you to explore the inner world of God King Yuheng together."
