Dusk, white clouds behind the mountains.

It was the last day of winter and the sky was clearing up. The evening fog covered the mountains and the mist was flowing between the folds of the steep rocks. Li Yang stood alone on the cliff, facing the fierce mountain wind with his brows lowered.

Compared to when he just came out of retreat, Li Yang has awakened two new earthly magical powers in just one year, and his [Awakening to the Truth and Contemplation of the Ideal] and other skills have also improved.

But it is not enough, far from enough.

Li Yang had a gloomy face, like an old farmer who was harvesting in autumn, worryingly measuring the harvest in the fields.

[Extreme Treasure Mirror] is less than one-third of the way to breaking through to the next level, and only twenty-two of the seventy-two earthly magical powers have been awakened. Even if one works step by step throughout the year, it will still take about sixty years of hard work to break through and become an earthly immortal.

A Jiazi period, or sixty years, is very short for Li Yang's life span, and can even be just a few days of seclusion. But for China today, there is absolutely no time to wait.

According to Tian Er, he doesn't have much luck from the human race in the Extreme Realm, and China only has two years at most, or even shorter.

There are now two ways for Li Yang to quickly become stronger.

The storage ring in Li Yang's hand flashed with light, and several strange lights flew out immediately, and then circled around him.

In the battle between Taishan and Demon No. 1, Li Yang also saw his own shortcomings. He had many magic weapons, and they were all excellent, such as the Moon Essence Wheel, the Three-Five Female and Male Demon Slaying Sword, and the Sky Cloud Cloud Sword...

It is precisely because of this that the magic weapons are too many and too diverse, and lack the unique characteristic of the sword immortal's killing. Although they look fancy when facing the enemy, their lethality is only average.

Thinking of this, Li Yang pointed his finger, and the strange light hovering around him stopped immediately, revealing an extremely crystal blue iron sheet condensing icy light.

This is Li Yang’s first immortal sword, a fragment of the Nanming Sword.

As early as ten years ago, he had thought about reforging the Nanming Sword and collected a lot of rare materials. However, after he got the Ama-no-Kurosakumo Sword and the Sanwu Chixiong Zhanxie Sword by chance, Li Yang's idea of ​​reforging the Nanming Sword gradually faded.

After the battle at Mount Tai, the idea of ​​sword-making was put on the agenda again.

However, this time they are not going to recast the Nanming Sword, but instead melt the fragments of the Nanming Sword, the Ame-no-Murasaki Sword, and the Male and Female Zhanxie Swords together as materials for upgrading the Moon Essence Wheel. The white weapons will be combined into one to forge a unique immortal sword.

Li Yang estimated that once the sword was successfully forged, his combat power would increase by at least 20%.

As for the second way to improve your strength, the methods are ever-changing but ultimately they all remain based on the same principles. If you want to be truly powerful, you still have to rely on the [Extreme Treasure Mirror].

Huaguo can't wait to practice step by step, and neither can Li Yang.

In this case, we can only rely on external forces.

Therefore, Li Yang faced another problem. After twenty years of subtle changes, Baiyun Mountain had already ranked among the top three in terms of spiritual energy concentration in the country. With the current level of spiritual energy recovery on Blue Star, it had not produced any spiritual treasures that could help Li Yang improve his cultivation. This was why Li Yang would need three full months of recuperation for the battle at Mount Tai.

Thinking of this, Li Yang couldn't help but sneer. His system was really useless. Everything basically depended on his own practice.

If the only advantage of the system is that it can quantitatively absorb high-level energy,
This characteristic was rarely shown. The only time was when the spiritual energy had just revived and Li Yang forced himself to swallow the red fruit with his mortal body to advance to the innate realm in order to save Chi Yanhong. After that, Li Yang's life was basically smooth sailing and this characteristic did not appear again.

Especially now, even if Blue Star has the highest concentration of top-notch spiritual stones or natural treasures, Li Yang can absorb them in just one breath and can't use them at all.

It was not until the battle at Mount Tai that Li Yang obtained the pill-shaped object taken out from the body of Demon No. 1.

Li Yang took the magic weapon, and then took the yellow bead out of the storage ring.

As soon as the yellow bead came out of the ring, the snow on the Baiyun Mountain began to melt into water, and the entire space seemed to be steaming and burning. Even after casting the Golden Light Spell to isolate the bead, Li Yang still felt a burning pain in his right hand.

Upon closer inspection, divine flames were faintly seen flowing beneath the surface of the bead, with a miniature golden man wrapped in the middle.

"Golden elixir? Nascent Soul? Primordial Spirit?"

This bead is somewhat similar to the many great achievements listed in the inner alchemy method. It is the core essence of the Jizhen Realm practice school. Li Yang doesn't know what it exactly is.

However, these are not important.

Li Yang only knew that this was the essence of the cultivation of an earthly immortal master and the fruit of the Tao of Demon No. 1!

What Li Yang is going to do next is simple and crazy.

He wants to refine the Dao Fruit of Demon No. 1!

You must know that the cultivation schools of Blue Star and the Jizhen Realm are extremely different. This is not a treasure from heaven and earth, but the cultivation of Demon No. 1, his way.

This is an extremely crazy thing. Refining the Dao fruit of others is equivalent to integrating the Dao of others into one's own body. If you are not careful, you will go astray and lose all your cultivation.

This is a conflict between Taos. Even if one uses some demonic means to forcibly refine it, it will only cause endless troubles.

Li Yang is gambling. He is gambling that the system will help him solve all of this!
At the end of winter, Chi Yanhong stood far away on the cliff.
She stood on the hillside opposite the cliff with her hands folded in front of her, her body relaxed, dressed in white, and watching.
Compared with the first time they met in Baiyun Mountain more than ten years ago, Li Yang's brows were furrowed at this moment, and his face was full of frost that would not melt away.

In fact, in the past decade or so, many things in this world have been completely changed.

But for Chi Yanhong, he had seen that slick and irrelevant little charlatan on the mountain when it was still Baiyun Taoist Temple, and he had accompanied him for more than ten years.

Li Yang also transformed step by step from an ordinary Taoist boy and a charlatan into what the outside world calls Li Zhenjun, Baiyun Immortal, the strongest person on Blue Star.

He was getting stronger along the way, so the things he had to bear and carry became more and more unconsciously. Chi Yanhong had seen it too many times. He was young and pretentious, trying to act like an immortal, while holding a sword to face all the despair and darkness in the world.

But this time the darkness was too thick and deep, so thick that even Li Yang would be swallowed up.

It has been a long time since Chi Yanhong saw Li Yang, the slick-talking man who seemed serious and had an immortal demeanor, but was actually still a young and coquettish man at heart.

Facing Li Zhenjun, who now shoulders the responsibility of the entire Blue Star and the world, Chi Yanhong looked at him for a while, feeling quite sad, with some frustrating memories and emotions.
-
Everything at the foot of the mountain continued as usual, but there were also some differences.

Led by Mr. Xie, the Chinese government officially handed over all information about the Extreme Realm to the cultivation officials of various countries.

In just one day, the Chinese Embassy received diplomatic mission requests from hundreds of countries.
Subsequently, Mr. Xie organized a meeting in Beijing, attended by heads of state of hundreds of countries.

The meeting lasted for three days and three nights, and no information or video materials were leaked during the entire process.

Three days later, hundreds of planes left Beijing with frustrated heads of state.

Not surprisingly, no country chose to announce the invasion of Kyokushinkai.

Such a fact is so bleak and hopeless that most countries cannot even see any possibility of winning.

Even if there is a slight chance, they will choose to announce the truth passionately and then actively prepare for war.
But no, all the heads of state reached a consensus that once the truth of the matter was revealed, Blue Star would collapse from within before the Extreme Realm could invade.

So, except for some spiritual organizations and individual countries, the entire Blue Star instantly entered a state of morbid prosperity.

After Qi Qiansu, who was far away in Qingcheng Mountain, learned the attitudes of other countries, he remained silent for a long time.

But at present he has no time to care about the attitudes of other countries. Currently in China, something very difficult is happening for him.

In Laojun Pavilion, Xie Yu, who had not slept for several days, had bloodshot eyes as he stared at the satellite cloud map of China's territory.
On the satellite cloud map, several gray lines are slowly advancing across China's vast territory, moving from all over China towards the Bohai Sea in the east.

The areas covered by the gray lines are the most important rivers in China.

"Report to the commander, the thunderstorm weather in the Yellow River has spread to SD Province, and the rainfall area covers half of SD Province. The rainfall is more than 300 mm, which is extremely heavy rainfall."

"In addition, the thunderstorm weather of Liaohe River has also moved into Inner Mongolia Province and is about to cross the Dongliaohe River area. The specific conditions of rivers such as Tuhai River are still being observed and counted."

A young female staff member reported the real-time data with Xie Yu and Qi Qiansu in a trembling voice.

The Yellow River, Liaohe River, Haihe River, Beiyun River, Luanhe River, Dalinghe River... Any one of these rivers is almost the lifeline of China. A single move can affect the entire body and is related to the lives of tens of millions of Chinese people.

But these important rivers suddenly began to experience severe thunderstorms at their source a week ago.

First, the mother river Yellow River, at its source in the heart of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, was hit by a sudden 6.0-magnitude earthquake. The accompanying thunderstorm clouds then spread along the river channel and have now affected the Northeast Province.

The same is true for the Liaohe River, Haihe River, and Beiyun River. The violent and terrifying thunderstorms seem to have life, and hundreds of rivers converge and move towards the eastern part of China.

After listening to the staff's report, Xie Yu nodded with a cold face.

Natural and man-made disasters of this magnitude are definitely not as simple as natural causes. All he can do is to evacuate the people affected by the heavy rain as much as possible and minimize the losses.

When Xie Yu walked up to Qi Qiansu, who was highly expected, he found that Qi Qiansu was playing a video on a loop.

That was a top-secret video footage taken by a meteorological satellite in the Lubei Plain Gorge of the Tuhai River.
The image shows clouds in the middle reaches of the Tuha River between 34° and 38° north latitude. A black line can be seen faintly moving in the clouds. Its morphological characteristics and movement patterns completely break through the conventional knowledge of meteorology!

According to meteorological satellites, the black line moving in the cloud is about several hundred meters long, moving along the high-altitude jet stream (200hPa level) at a speed of 85m/s, and to a certain extent affecting and interfering with the direction of the rainstorm clouds.

Qi Qiansu scrolled through the progress bar and looked at it dozens of times. Finally, he closed the computer and relaxed his sore eyes.

"The dragons are moving, and they are moving on a large scale. These long worms want to fight for something, and they are using the water veins of China to stir up the celestial phenomena. Their destination is... Bohai Sea."

As Qi Qiansu finished speaking, Xie Yu's expression changed slightly.

Xie Yu was not unfamiliar with the words "walking dragon" and "walking dragon". There were records in ancient books that Dayu "locked the dragon in the Huai Wo" when he controlled floods. This was the Qingcheng Mountain where they were at that time. "Youyang Zazu" also recorded that during the Kaiyuan period, there was a "black dragon crossing the calamity" in Shu, which once caused the Minjiang River to change its course. There is still a so-called "Zhan Jiao Cliff" scenic spot in Qingcheng Mountain.

Even now that spiritual energy has revived, Xie Yu would not regard these records as fabrications of the ancients.
But this time there are too many, and the basins and scope covered are too wide.

The Yellow River, Liaohe River, Haihe River, Beiyun River, Luanhe River, Dalinghe River... Thunderstorms occurred in eight rivers, which means that at least eight dragons are stirring up trouble, destroying bridges and causing floods.

Eight, eight in total! Who would have thought that there were so many long worms lurking in the source of the famous mountains and rivers of China!

The reason why so many dragons could stir up trouble and run wild together was not because Qi Qiansu said so, but Xie Yu also had some guesses.
The dragon turned into a dragon! These long insects wanted to give it a try and fight to become a real dragon!

This was the aftermath of Demon No. 1 nailing the two fortune masters of the Extreme Realm into the foundation of the Dai Temple. The luck of the Blue Star suddenly skyrocketed, and it actually gave birth to a fortune that was enough to allow a walking dragon to transform into a dragon. So at this moment, all these beasts went crazy.

Qi Qiansu said nothing, but continued to look through the images of clouds over various river basins taken by China's meteorological satellites.

Even among the demon dragons, there are different types.

"This one in the Luan River, judging from the footage, should be a 'cloud dragon'. It is said to be shaped like a cloud snake, with four legs and a thin neck. There is a white baby on its neck. The big ones are several circumferences long. It lays eggs like one or two jars."

“Although we didn’t capture the thunderstorm clouds over the Haihe River, judging from the bull-like roaring sound recorded on site, it should be the Sijiao mentioned in folklore.”

"There should be a tiger dragon in the clouds of Daling River, and its sound is like a mandarin duck..."

Qi Qiansu calculated bit by bit, slowly identifying the types of dragons in the eight rivers, but he still did not feel happy and still frowned:

"Er Ya Yi says: The dragon is the leader of scaly insects. It has nine aspects, namely, 'head like an ox, horns like a deer, eyes like shrimps, ears like elephants, neck like a crocodile, belly like a snake, scales like fish, claws like a phoenix, and paws like a tiger.' However, these eight rivers only have eight aspects. To become a true dragon, all nine aspects must be gathered..."

Thinking of this, Qi Qiansu's voice suddenly stopped.

He suddenly remembered that on Baiyun Mountain, the younger generation named Liu Ming always had a small black gecko beside him...
