I can find treasures in my dreams.

Yang Fan understood very well that both the World Will and the lower-level Earth Spirits were extremely dangerous.

Their abilities vary, and their methods are ever-changing.

For example, the White Umbrella Goddess of Shapudian actually used the power of laws to create a magical space—the Glacier Spirit Realm.

The moment he saw the gate to the Ice River Spirit Realm in the palace, he immediately had a feeling that entering it would surely lead to his death.

Because everything in the spirit realm is completely ruled by the Goddess of the White Umbrella.

Therefore.

Yang Fan had a very deep understanding of the danger of samurai swords and had made thorough preparations.

Just as the blade was about to fall, he decisively activated the World Power Crystal—the Solidified Crystal—given to him by Xiaoya.

Time in this area slowed down several times over.

It should have slowed down by a hundred times, but since the opponent was the will of the world, the effect was diminished.

Yang Fan glanced at the sky and immediately saw what was attacking him.

This was clearly an illusory samurai sword, its appearance exactly matching Sato Taichi's memories.

He also felt a chill run down his spine, because he sensed a terrifying power of law emanating from the katana.

His insight into the stars made him realize that this was the Law of Breaking Sharpness.

The so-called "breaking through sharpness" simply means being indestructible.

Even rare armor made from level five or six exotic materials, or a mid-grade defensive ability cultivated to its peak, would probably be unable to withstand this strike.

It can not only cut through objects, but it can even sever souls.

Throughout history, the people of Sakura have been obsessed with sharp samurai swords, and the evolution of the Law of Sharpness in the world of Sakura is likely related to this.

A moment later.

Yang Fan activated the shuttle, and his entire body vanished.

The sharp strike missed its mark, leaving a deep gash in the ground.

Subsequently.

Yang Fan appeared at the entrance of the temple's main hall, glanced around, and saw the weapon rack from Sato Taiichi's memories.

However, the weapon rack was empty, and no samurai sword was visible, indicating that the container had sensed the danger and hidden itself.

Without hesitation, Yang Fan stepped into the main hall.

"Ah~"

A piercing wail erupted.

Suddenly, swords flashed and shadows danced within the main hall.

More than a dozen illusory samurai swords appeared out of thin air and slashed towards us from different directions like lightning.

Yang Fan was instantly hacked to pieces, and blood splattered all over the entrance to the main hall.

he died.

This is undoubtedly a trap; whoever enters will die.

"Got you!"

A soft laugh suddenly rang out.

Yang Fan's figure reappeared outside the gate.

The one that was just killed was only a clone; the real body quietly tore open space and hid in the rift.

He possesses a priceless doll-like clone, so losing one of his clones is no big deal.

Yang Fan clenched his right fist, holding a stone bead in his hand.

This is another treasure—the Space Pearl.

He aimed at the top of the hall and threw a punch at top speed.

This punch not only contained powerful Yuan Qi, but also carried spatial power.

"boom!"

"Crack!"

It looked as if a mirror had shattered.

The space above the palace ceiling flickered, revealing a blood-stained ribbon tied below the main beam, with a samurai sword hanging below the blood-stained ribbon.

It created an independent space here, and when Yang Fan came over just now, its main body disappeared into this place.

Unfortunately, this trick could fool the other powerful knights, but it couldn't fool Yang Fan at all.

After all, he has far too many tricks up his sleeve.

"Ah~"

An even louder wail came from the blade.

As if a storm had swept through the main hall, the statues, tables, chairs, and other items inside were instantly reduced to fragments as if they had been cleaved by a thousand knives.

The wall was covered with tens of thousands of knife marks, each one a finger's width deep.

The katana became blurry, as if it intended to flee.

"Noisy!"

Yang Fan shouted.

The samurai sword froze instantly.

"Whee!"

Little Ya's giggles suddenly rang out.

Wearing an adorable panda hat, she appeared next to the katana and patted the blade with her fair, white hand.

The blow made no sound.

Yang Fan sensed that the world seemed to have become distorted.

"Keng!"

The katana broke off.

The little girl waved her hand, and the two broken pieces of the knife disappeared.

She turned to look at Yang Fan, smiling broadly: "This samurai sword is called the Demon Sword Muramasa. It was one of the two most important vessels for that ghost-like woman. It's all thanks to you for discovering the Demon Sword."

The "woman who looks like a ghost" mentioned in this sentence is clearly a manifestation of the world's will in Sakura-san.

Yang Fan was a little surprised: "This thing is actually a famous sword."

The Demon Blade Village is one of the most famous samurai swords in Sakura's history.

There are many stories about this sword, and almost all of them are tragedies, which is why it has earned the name "Demon Sword".

As usual, Xiaoya didn't linger: "With this knife, I'm much more confident in finding the ghost woman. I'll go back and study it first."

Before she could finish saying "I studied it," she had already vanished.

Yang Fan didn't leave; he waited quietly.

Just a few seconds later, the expected thing happened.

"By the way, I extracted a sword spirit from the demon sword. Perhaps you will have the opportunity to comprehend the Sharpness-Breaking Law within it."

With that sound, a miniature demon sword, about the length of an adult's palm, its form half illusory and half real, suddenly appeared before him.

This is naturally the spirit of the demon sword.

Yang Fan clicked his tongue in amazement: "The era of superpowers really has all sorts of strange and wonderful things. I never thought that even sword souls from novels and games exist."

He didn't reach out to catch the sword spirit; his intuition told him that doing so would bring bad luck.

Xiao Ya's voice drifted over again: "Oh, I almost forgot to mention, the Demon Blade's sword spirit contains a curse of calamity, which is why the Demon Blade's many masters have met with tragic ends."

"Now that supernatural forces have appeared, the curse has been amplified hundreds of times, and as time goes on, the curse power attached to the blade will become stronger and stronger."

"This knife hasn't been in contact with a living person for too long. The first person to touch it will likely suffer a bloody disaster."

"Even if you are a powerful knight now, there is still a high probability that you will get injured, so you must be careful."

Yang Fan's lips twitched.

Fortunately, he had gained insight into celestial phenomena and realized that there was something wrong with the demon sword's soul.

Fortunately, he knew that Xiaoya was forgetful and often forgot to tell him important information, so he did not rush to take the sword soul.

He stared at the sword spirit and smiled, "So, killing a few people with a curse isn't a problem? I don't think it's a bad thing."

Yang Fan waved his hand and stored the sword soul into the spatial pearl.

This thing is a treasure; it can suppress curses without any problem. As long as you don't reach out to take it easily, you don't need to worry about being affected by the curse.

He walked to the entrance of the main hall and saw volcanic ash falling like snow, making it difficult to see anyone more than ten meters away.

The entire Pingjing City area has been completely swallowed up by volcanic ash.

Yang Fan sighed regretfully: "It's a pity that the tens of millions of people who left Pingjing will never have the chance to come back."

In the dream of revelation.

Sakura-san's official website first received a warning from Sato Taichi about the eruption of Mount Taifuku volcano.

The evacuated residents of Pyeongkyo avoided both the tsunami and the volcanic eruption.

But in reality...

The Heijō metropolitan area has a population of over 4000 million, and the Sakura-san government has evacuated more than 3000 million of them.

The rest of the people took refuge in various shelters. Since each shelter was equipped with a high-powered air filtration system, accommodating so many people was not a problem.

The tens of millions of people who were evacuated were mostly resettled in relatively flat coastal areas.

Because the official Sakura-san team had no idea that a tsunami was about to hit.

This was an absolutely fatal mistake.

Yang Fan simply adjusted the timeline, and the result was completely different.

But he did not regret doing so.

Firstly, the blood feud from a century ago has finally come to a complete end.

Secondly, the Ying Sang people have their own culture, and their island mentality is incompatible with the mainland culture of the Da Xia people. It is impossible to expect the Ying Sang people to integrate into Da Xia.

Late at night. The South China Sea Trough.

"Boom!"

A thunderous roar echoed throughout the vast deep sea.

The compression between the tectonic plates triggered strong vibrations in the trough, thus setting the stage for a devastating earthquake.

The seabed plate suddenly rose, pushing up the seawater above to form a super mass of water, and the terrifying kinetic energy began to drive a tsunami.

More than a thousand deep-sea weapons deployed in advance by the Great Xia Navy sensed the change in water pressure and exploded with a series of "bangs".

The sound of the weapon explosion was not loud, completely drowned out by the deafening roar of the earthquake.

However, the explosion released a gravitational shock, further increasing the energy of the water mass.

This is the deep-sea version of the Golden Cudgel gravity strike weapon.

Because it is a deep-sea area, tsunami waves can be tens to hundreds of kilometers long and only a few meters high, making them difficult to detect.

Its propagation speed is astonishing, approaching 1000 kilometers per hour, comparable to that of a jet aircraft.

As tsunami waves approach the coast, the water becomes shallower, and their propagation speed slows down.

At this point, a terrible change occurred.

The wavelength of the tsunami wave begins to shorten, forcing the energy to concentrate upwards, which causes the wave height to increase dramatically.

Dozens of kilometers from the coast of Pyeonggyeong Bay, the waves surged higher and higher as they rolled toward the land, quickly becoming towering giant waves.

It is 400 kilometers away from Pyeonggyo.

Luoyang City.

After leaving Heijyou, the Sakura royal family moved to this historic city.

When the earthquake struck, the king was enjoying himself with his lover.

Although His Majesty is over seventy years old, his energy is no less than that of a thirty-year-old.

In addition, the kingdom has been plagued by disasters recently, which has made him feel very depressed, so he needs to vent.

"Boom! Boom!"

The unusually urgent knocking forced the king to stop.

An anxious voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, a massive earthquake has just struck the Southern Sea Trough, and the magnitude is very likely to exceed 9.5."

The king was first startled, then felt a sense of relief, as if something had finally happened.

He had heard the news of potential earthquakes in the three sea trenches surrounding the kingdom from hundreds of people, so he was well prepared.

His Majesty sat on the couch, looking somewhat bewildered, unsure of what to do or say.

The servant turned the doorknob and pushed the door open a crack, his voice urgent and almost flaring: "Your Majesty, there is a 90% chance that the coastline of Pingjing City will be hit by a tsunami."

The king then realized that something was terribly wrong: "Quickly inform the chief minister to evacuate all civilians along the coast of Pyeonggyeong Bay immediately."

This emperor finally has some sense; he remembers that tens of millions of people gathered at various settlements along the coast.

The attendant's tone turned strange: "Your Majesty, just half a minute ago, the chief minister was wielding a samurai sword when he accidentally killed himself."

The king exclaimed "Ah!" in disbelief.

The attendant quickly explained, "The guard said that before the chief minister brandished his sword, he said something strange. He seemed to have seen a miniature samurai sword on the table, but no one else saw it."

"The chief minister suddenly became interested and said that he had participated in the kendo club when he was young, so he had someone bring him a samurai sword."

"He had only been dancing for a few seconds when one of his legs somehow tripped on the table leg, causing him to lose his balance and drop his katana to the ground."

"His body fell backward, and the katana pierced his neck, the tip of which came out of one of his eyes. The healing ability user died before he could be saved."

The king was almost dumbfounded.

His Majesty could hardly believe that wielding a sword could lead to such a bizarre death.

The attendant urged, "Your Majesty, the most urgent matter now is the tsunami."

The king exclaimed "Ah!" and came to his senses: "I'll be right there."

In fact.

The chief minister's mysterious death was, of course, orchestrated by Yang Fan in secret.

The miniature samurai sword that this high-ranking official saw was, to put it bluntly, a demon sword called Sword Soul.

The chief minister was just an ordinary person, and he was struck by terrible misfortune simply because he shared a room with the demon sword.

He originally had no interest in swordsmanship, otherwise he wouldn't have stopped picking up a samurai sword after graduating from high school.

But under the influence of the calamity, the chief minister had a samurai sword brought to him and, as if by some strange twist of fate, killed himself.

soon.

The king met a group of ministers, all of whom looked flustered.

One minister said, "Your Majesty, we must evacuate the coastal residents as soon as possible."

The king asked directly, "A tsunami could strike at any moment. What should we do to quickly evacuate tens of millions of people?"

The minister was stumped; he opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.

The king couldn't help but sigh inwardly, and began to miss his chief minister.

Although the chief minister has many flaws, such as nepotism and allowing his family members to make money, he has shown great leadership qualities in times of emergency and can make decisive and correct decisions.

at this time.

Another attendant rushed in, shouting, "Your Majesty, there's an urgent report! A tsunami has appeared and is expected to hit the coastal areas in five minutes."

The meeting room fell completely silent instantly.

With only five minutes left, even a miracle couldn't save the situation.

Tianshan.

Yaochi Park.

As the location of the second World Gate, ordinary people who approach this place without a pass will be arrested.

However, given Yang Fan's status, he stayed directly at a hotel inside the park.

When he woke up in the morning, he heard some really big news.

A magnitude 9.6 earthquake struck the Southern Trough near the Cherry Blossom Kingdom, triggering a super tsunami that crashed against the coastline.

It is said that the height of the tsunami waves reached nearly seventy meters, and the seawater surged as far as one hundred kilometers onto land.

To make matters worse, half of the people in the Tokyo metropolitan area were evacuated to coastal areas to escape the volcanic ash from the eruption of Mount Taifuku.

When the super tsunami struck, these people were all wiped out.

After the tsunami struck, many places were littered with piles of corpses, a truly horrific scene.

Even the capital city of Pyeongsang was mostly submerged by the sea, and many shelters were flooded by the sea, resulting in a significant number of drownings.

Ling Shuiling sighed, "Many news media speculate that the death toll from this tsunami may exceed 2000 million, which should be the highest number of deaths in a single natural disaster in the history of natural disasters."

Yang Fan nodded and said, "The people of Ying Sang are indeed too pitiful!"

Ling Shuiling had a question: "Since the Ying Sang government already knew that a major earthquake might occur in the Southern Sea Trough, why did they evacuate people from the Pingjing metropolitan area to the coastal areas?"

Yang Fan replied, "Because the plains in coastal areas are larger, transportation is more convenient, evacuation is faster, and resettlement is easier."

"From the perspective of the Sakura-san government, it is easier to transport supplies to the plains, so the Sakura-san people did this. After all, who would have known that the earthquake and the volcanic eruption would occur at the same time?"

Ling Shuiling suddenly realized: "Well, it seems that the Cherry Blossom Kingdom is having really bad luck."

She added, "The Pingjing metropolitan area is the heart of the Sakura Kingdom, where many high-tech industries are concentrated. Now that so many people have died, the Sakura Kingdom is finished."

Yang Fan agreed with this assessment: "Ying Sang's national strength will regress by at least thirty years, and it will be impossible for it to develop again in the future."

In fact, given the character of the people of Ying Sang, they still have the potential to thrive in a different place.

Unfortunately, the Great Xia Kingdom is right next to the Cherry Blossom Kingdom, and the people of the Great Xia Kingdom will absolutely not allow this to happen.

The female secretary revealed another piece of news: "The media has already reported that due to the sheer number of deaths, the Cherry Blossom Kingdom has requested assistance from the Expansion Alliance."

"However, the Great Xia made a request: the Sakura royal family once spent a huge amount of money to participate in the blood sacrifice ritual of the Gameni people, which allowed the current king to live for nearly fifty years. The royal family must abdicate, otherwise the Expansion Alliance will not provide assistance."

Previously, the Great Xia Dynasty had clearly stated to the world that anyone who participated in the blood sacrifice must die.

At that time, the Great Xia did not cause trouble for the Sakura Kingdom, but now its true colors have finally been revealed.

Ling Shuiling laughed and said, "I now feel that the Great Xia government is indeed ruthless. They took advantage of Ying Sang's illness to try and kill her."

Yang Fan hummed in agreement: "This is the reckoning of history."

The female secretary changed the subject: "I feel that the air in Yaochi Park is exceptionally fresh. Let's go for a walk after breakfast."

Yang Fan did not refuse: "Okay!"

He then explained with a smile, "You feel the air is good because this area is rich in life energy. Ordinary people who live here for a long time will be free from illness and disaster, and living ten years longer is no problem at all."

The Azure Star only passed through the Weeping Green Sea once, and the laws of Kunlun Mountain were permanently altered, creating a region rich in life energy.

Ling Shuiling immediately showed a look of attraction.

But she immediately shook her head and said, "Forget it! Tianxing Group and Sirius Group still have a lot of things to do. Let's settle things at Yaochi Park after I retire."

Yang Fan smiled but remained silent.

Through his ability to see the stars, he could vaguely glimpse the female secretary's fate. It seemed she would have many bizarre and fantastical experiences in the future, and retirement would probably be a long, long time from now.

Ling Shuiling blinked her beautiful eyes and suddenly said, "An acquaintance of yours is also in Yaochi Park. Would you like to meet them?"

Yang Fan was taken aback: "Who?"

Ling Shuiling parted her red lips slightly and uttered a few words: "Your long-legged girl?"

She emphasized the word "your" particularly, as if it had a hidden meaning.

The female secretary then made a gesture that was very much in line with the succubus's personality.

She pulled up her long skirt, revealing her fair, tender, and smooth legs, and gave a seductive smile: "Comparing my legs and Zhao Xiaoying's, whose legs do you think are more beautiful?"

She even said something suggestive: "How about I call over the long-legged girl so you can touch her and then compare?"

Yang Fan glared at her: "Stop messing around!"

After he finished speaking, he slapped her on the back.

"Snapped!"

I have to admit, this is top-notch handling. (End of Chapter)
