I can find treasures in my dreams.

Faced with the strange appearance of the divine remains stele.

Liu Yi was completely stunned, her mental energy stretched to its limit.

As a knight-level powerhouse, Zhao Xiaoying's mental strength was far more acute than Liu Yi's, and she immediately sensed that the power contained in this lightning bolt seemed to be somewhat special.

The long-legged woman frowned slightly and asked, "General Wu, that lightning bolt just now seemed a bit strange? I sensed a deadly danger in it."

Out of the second officer's reserve, she did not say that the thunder had instilled in her an unusually strong fear from the bottom of her heart.

Wu Dingtian nodded slightly, his voice still tinged with fatigue, but now tinged with seriousness: "Yes, Commander Zhao, that was a 'Time-Bound Lightning' specially left behind by Mr. Lingya. It is both the key to activating the stone tablet and the core activator of the Eye of the Long River."

The military leader paused for a moment, then revealed more secrets: "It is said that the Time-Shattering Thunder comes from an ancient ruin in the primordial world and possesses a terrifying power that can corrupt all things."

"Without the protection of the Eye of the Long River, the moment the Time Lightning struck, everyone present would instantly turn to ashes, and even their souls would vanish in an instant."

"Gudu~"

Liu Yi couldn't help but swallow.

The female secretary then realized that she had unknowingly brushed shoulders with death.

Is this the world of higher-level powers?

terrible!

"I see." Zhao Xiaoying nodded gently.

She couldn't help but sigh again, "I wonder how Mr. Lingya managed to get such a terrifying thing back."

Wu Dingtian continued his explanation: "This stone tablet contains a certain power that can reverse the decaying power of the Time Thunder, thereby tracing back some clues in the long river of time and thus glimpsing some scenes of the future."

As Liu Yi listened to the description, which sounded like a myth or legend, she quietly thought to herself, "That's amazing!"

Zhao Xiaoying nodded vigorously: "With the Long River as a powerful artifact, the Canglan Civilization will be able to cope with various crises more calmly in the future."

“Boom!——”

“Boom!——”

The giant vortex spun faster and faster, and the thunderous roar of the crashing waves grew more and more intense, causing the entire space to tremble slightly.

The oppressive force permeating the air grew increasingly terrifying, like an invisible giant hand tightly gripping one's heart.

Liu Yi felt short of breath and almost suffocated.

at this time.

The female secretary's pupils suddenly contracted, her gaze fixed on the surface of the raging vortex.

Countless fragmented images, like movie clips, flashed rapidly across the surface of the swirling water.

Because of the swirling water and the rolling waves, these images appear blurry, as if seen through frosted glass, and are fleeting.

Even so, thanks to her high-level warrior's keen eyesight, she was still able to identify a few clear images.

Every image deeply moved her.

One of the images shows an endless expanse of black, deadly sand.

Giant sand dunes, some tens of kilometers high, collapsed one after another amidst the violent tremors, like towering mountains. Yellow sand swept across the sky and earth, creating a scene comparable to the collapse of the heavens and the earth, which was extremely terrifying.

In another image, enormous cracks appear on the ground of the Black Sand Sea.

The fissure meanders and twists, its length measured in tens of thousands of kilometers. As it continues to expand, it relentlessly swallows up massive amounts of black sand.

Another image shows a series of unimaginable sand whirlpools.

Their diameters are also measured in "tens of thousands of kilometers," like giant beasts that devour the heavens and the earth. The super sandstorms stirred up by the crazy swirling vortex blot out the sun, and within them, there seem to be countless demons roaring and struggling in the sandstorm.

"Oh my God!"

Liu Yi could no longer suppress the shock in her heart and couldn't help but gasp, her voice filled with undisguised fear and trembling.

Without a doubt, these images depict the impending catastrophe that is about to erupt in the Black Sand Sea.

Its scale and destructive power far exceeded all her imagination.

In that instant, Liu Yi suddenly understood something—why the Shadow Viper, a knight-level creature, had risked traveling tens of thousands of kilometers to migrate to the vicinity of the Ironfist Civilization's World Gate.

This was not a random migration at all, but rather a premonition by this high-level monster, driven by its innate instincts, of the impending super catastrophe in the Black Sand Sea.

In order to escape this catastrophic disaster, it desperately sought a relatively safe haven.

Zhao Xiaoying's pretty face was as cold as frost, and she whispered softly as she parted her red lips: "It seems that the super natural disaster... is really coming."

As a knight-level powerhouse, her mental perception was more than ten times sharper than Liu Yi's.

She not only saw the terrifying sights of sand dunes collapsing and the earth cracking, but also captured more details hidden deep within the sand curtain—the energy field of the Black Sand Sea was violently chaotic, and countless tiny spatial rifts were opening and closing in the sandstorm, as if something was peering into the outside world from the depths of the rifts.

Even the fragmented images gave her a chilling sense of terror.

The only slightly reassuring thing is that all the images are focused on the Black Sand Sea of ​​Death, and there are no scenes of it affecting the civilized world.

But this sense of peace was fleeting, and she immediately thought of a deeper crisis—once a super natural disaster breaks out, the Black Sand Sea will be completely reduced to a barren wasteland, and not only will resource extraction be impossible, but even getting close to it will become a luxury.

For the Azure Civilization, the Black Sand Sea is an indispensable resource-producing area. If it cannot obtain resources from the Black Sand Sea, the civilization's development speed will be greatly slowed down.

at this time.

Wu Dingtian suddenly underwent a strange change.

The general's body began to tremble slightly and uncontrollably, as if he were experiencing a tremendous energy shock.

Even more chillingly, his eyes had mysteriously turned a deep blue, with wisps of electricity flickering within them.

However, with the armor mask covering it, others couldn't see it.

Zhao Xiaoying immediately noticed his unusual behavior and instinctively wanted to ask him something, but a strange intuition held her back.

Two seconds passed.

Wu Dingtian's body suddenly trembled violently. He opened his mouth, but the sound that came out was not normal; instead, it was a strange tone mixed with electrical noise.

"I...I think I saw...I saw it..."

The electricity in his eyes began to emanate, even passing through the mask and leaving many blue patterns on its surface.

Wu Dingtian was breathing heavily, making a "hoarse" sound in his throat, like an old bellows struggling to operate. Each breath was accompanied by a violent tremor, as if he would suffocate completely at any moment.

Only then did Liu Yi notice Wu Dingtian's unusual behavior. Her red lips trembled, and she subconsciously wanted to cry out "Ah!"

However, Zhao Xiaoying stopped her subordinate's actions with her gaze.

The female secretary kept her mouth shut and instead kept stealing glances at the military bigwig.

Zhao Xiaoying had a vague understanding that Wu Dingtian, as the host of the Eye of the Long River, had likely become a "container" connected to the River of Time by using the strange power of the stone tablet, thus receiving information from the future.

at last.

Wu Dingtian's chest heaved violently a dozen times, and he uttered a strange sentence in a hoarse voice full of vicissitudes.

"The fissures deep within the desert,"

"A dark, starless current is flowing within."
"Darkness as deep as ink"

"It will break free from the shackles of the sand and gravel."
"Spreading along the lines of time—"

It will kiss every inch of the bright land.

"Devouring every beacon of civilization,"

"Let the stars fall, let the laws collapse, let all vibrant breaths fall silent—"

Liu Yi was stunned when she heard this.

What happened to General Wu?
What did he mean by that?
Zhao Xiaoying was shocked, but she was now completely certain of her guess.

Indeed, it is a revelation!

General Wu indeed glimpsed the future through the Eye of the Long River!

Wu Dingtian let out a few more gasps and continued mechanically reciting the incomprehensible language.

"The first tentacles of darkness,

"One hundred and twenty primordial days later,

"Break through the barriers between the desert and the world"
"Descending upon this noisy star field,"
"countless……"

He had only uttered two words when Wu Dingtian's body could no longer support him.

The general's eyes glazed over completely, the blue lightning in his pupils vanished, and all his strength seemed to be drained away in an instant as he fell straight backward.

Just as he was about to lose his balance, the Divine Armor automatically took over and instantly stabilized Wu Dingtian's body.

Immediately afterwards, the armor's intelligent central processing unit started operating at high speed, and the built-in medical detection module instantly completed a scan—loss of consciousness, mental exhaustion, and severe physical overexertion.

A thin, silver syringe immediately popped out from inside the armor, injecting a mixture of highly concentrated nutrients and a soothing solution into his body. At the same time, it released a weak electric current to stimulate a specific area of ​​his brain, helping him to quickly regain consciousness.

The above actions were completed in just 0.1 seconds, demonstrating the high level of intelligence of the new generation of human armor and its powerful efficiency in protecting lives.

Furthermore, Wu Dingtian's quasi-knight physique demonstrated formidable regenerative abilities.

After a while.

The general fully regained consciousness and his fingers twitched slightly.

Zhao Xiaoying immediately breathed a sigh of relief, her tone full of genuine concern: "General Wu! Are you alright? Would you like to leave Changhe and rest for a while?"

Wu Dingtian did not respond to the question from the second commander of the People's Alliance. Instead, he asked a question in a hoarse voice that stunned the two people present: "Commander Zhao, did I say something just now?"

"..." Zhao Xiaoying's pretty face twitched slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

She never expected that Wu Dingtian would have no memory of what had happened to him.

Liu Yi almost couldn't help but smile, her lips unconsciously curving upwards, but she forced herself to hold it back.

The scene was truly absurd: a general who had just delivered a startling prophecy and collapsed from exhaustion woke up to find himself completely unaware of what he had said.

Besides, the female secretary also had a strong sense of unease.

She vaguely understood that General Wu's strange behavior was most likely related to the power of time.

This magical power can erase the memories of those who have been subjected to the power of time, which is truly chilling.

Zhao Xiaoying raised her hand and gestured to Liu Yi: "Liu Yi, replay the prophecy from earlier and simultaneously generate a text archive."

"Yes, Commander Zhao."

Liu Yi responded.

As soon as the female secretary had a thought, the intelligent control center of the Divine Armor responded immediately.

A pale blue holographic screen slowly unfolded in front of the three people. As the light and shadow shifted, Wu Dingtian's previous prophetic voice, which was mixed with electrical noise and was ethereal and eerie, was clearly reproduced.

The audio was simultaneously converted into neat white text on the right side of the light screen, accurately replicating that mysterious revelation that transcends time.

Wu Dingtian's eyes were sharp as he quickly scanned the text on the light screen and said in a deep voice, "Judging from the description of the prophecy, 'the dark currents in the depths of the desert' should be the super natural disaster we have to deal with, and 'one hundred and twenty primordial suns' is the precise countdown to the arrival of the natural disaster."

"According to the time conversion standard of the original world, one original day is equal to 2.1 standard days of Azure Star, and 120 original days are exactly 252 Azure days."

"In about eight and a half months, this super natural disaster called 'Dark Tide' will descend, and the Azure Civilization will face this annihilation."

Zhao Xiaoying nodded slightly: "That should be it."

She sighed softly, a sense of urgency surging through her heart like a tidal wave.

Eight and a half months may seem like a long time, but for the Canglan people who were preparing for war with the full strength of their civilization, it was actually too short.

by the way.

This revelation is exceptionally simple and straightforward, lacking the obscure metaphors often found in previous revelations. Even ordinary people can understand it at a glance.

This may be the result of the interaction between the power of time and the lightning of time at the Monument of the Divine Remains—the intertwining of the two forces not only amplified the clarity of the prophecy but also dispelled the obscurity of the revelation.

This is extremely rare.

Liu Yi knew she had no right to interrupt, so she focused her attention on using the Spirit Observation and Mind Clarity to record the conversation, while also listening attentively.

After a brief silence.

Zhao Xiaoying's expression grew increasingly solemn as she slowly repeated the words from the revelation: "'Devouring every beacon of civilization, causing stars to fall, laws to collapse, and all vibrant breaths to fall silent…'"

"This description is terrifying. This is no ordinary natural disaster; it's more like a catastrophe capable of annihilating everything. We must figure out what exactly the 'undercurrent' is."

Wu Dingtian frowned and nodded in agreement: "It is indeed terrifying! The revelation mentioned 'darkness' twice, and I think this should be the key clue to deciphering the 'undercurrent'."

He wanted to say something, but ultimately shook his head helplessly: "I'm not good at interpreting revelations; making wild guesses might interfere with the correct line of thought."

Because it concerned the future of the entire civilization, the general dared not even speculate.

A hint of helplessness flashed across Zhao Xiaoying's pretty face.

She excels at overall planning and coordinating resources from all parties, but she is equally inept at interpreting revelations.

This is an extremely profound field of study, requiring not only a deep understanding of supernatural knowledge but also extensive knowledge and experience.

Looking across the vast world of civilizations, even those ancient and profound civilizations might not be able to find many true masters of interpretation.

Just as the two were staring at each other in silence.

"Boom!——"

A deep, yet extremely penetrating bang suddenly erupted from the dim, leaden sky.

Before everyone could recover, a streak of crimson-gold lightning suddenly tore through the sky!
This bolt of lightning was not the deep blue lightning of before, but as dazzling as a red-hot iron, shaped like a giant crimson-gold dragon with its head held high, carrying a world-destroying momentum, and descending from the sky as fast as a meteor.

"Tsk-!"

The crimson-gold lightning struck the center of the platform with a deafening roar, exploding into a sky full of churning plasma, like a giant blooming flower of fire, instantly turning the entire platform crimson.

The sudden turn of events left everyone stunned and frozen in place.

Wu Dingtianxia adopted a defensive stance.

obviously.

This scene was completely beyond the expectations of the host of the Long River.

next moment.

At the core of the condensed crimson-gold plasma, a blurry human figure slowly emerged.

His silhouette appeared and disappeared in the electric light, and the crimson-gold electric light, like a ring of stars, slowly swirled and flowed around him.

The figure stood tall and straight, and even though it was just a blurry outline, it instantly overwhelmed the violent aura of the surrounding thunder and vortex.

Liu Yi only glanced at him, yet felt the image be imprinted into the deepest recesses of her soul. (End of Chapter)
