Chapter 274 The Arrival of Nguyen Mai

"Although the Yaoqing Immortal Ship always sails in war zones, its expeditions mainly rely on the expeditionary fleet. At least in recent decades, no Abundant Creatures have been able to get close to the Yaoqing flagship or have any substantial impact on it."

Above the travel agency, a slender fox-woman was chatting animatedly in the middle of the aisle; she was the tour guide from the Star-Picking Society.

At this moment, she was educating the passengers about the Yaoqing Immortal Ship. When someone asked whether traveling on Yaoqing was safe, the other person answered very naturally, clearly having answered this question countless times before.

It's normal to have such doubts, after all, Yaoqing is stereotyped as a battle maniac, and the fox people on it are all the kind of berserkers who charge into battle with a roar.

"Yaoqing's flagship is fine, but the journey there won't be smooth sailing. Those treacherous creatures are keeping a close eye on Yaoqing, this menace. Without sufficient strength, it's basically impossible to open such a tourist route."

Yu Tianyi had a deep understanding of this matter. He had spent a lot of time studying the Yaoqing Immortal Boat, his purpose being to obtain a copy of the Taixu Sword God's inheritance for Jingliu to deal with the Demon Yin Body that would come later.

However, most of this information is now useless; it can only be used to show off one's knowledge when talking about Yao Qing.

Upon hearing her husband's words, Jingliu covered her mouth and chuckled, as if she had remembered something interesting.

"Bai Heng's hometown. Although she has traveled to many parts of the world and written many travelogues, she doesn't have any special feelings for Yao Qing. When I was drinking and talking with her before, she stammered and couldn't say anything special about it."

"Because they've seen so much of it, they don't find it strange anymore. Just like many people from the Xianzhou in Luofu, they can't even name any famous attractions on their own Xianzhou."

Yu Tianyi also smiled and said that he naturally knew the reason. People are always curious about the unknown, but the things around them are often overlooked.

The two chatted and laughed freely, a feeling Jingliu had never experienced in the past thousand years. Having relieved himself of the burden of the swordhead and avenged his great enemy, his state of mind had also reached a new level, allowing him to control his emotions with ease and without any obscurity.

"Then, what is that!"

Suddenly, a passenger sitting by the porthole exclaimed, immediately attracting everyone's attention. They followed the man's gaze and looked out the window, and sure enough, they saw many dark spots in the starry sky, which stood out against the backdrop of a distant star.

"It seems we have entered the war zone. This is the antimatter legion of the Annihilation Ancestor. It looks like they have their eyes on our Traveling Sky and are preparing to use it to replenish some of their legion's troops."

Having dealt with the antimatter legion countless times in the chapter "The Fall of Luofu," Yu Tianyi easily distinguished the distinctive dragon-shaped doomsday beast with two pairs of wings and hands, as well as the countless illusory soldiers following closely behind.

"There is no need for you to worry. These enemies of the antimatter legion will not affect our journey. The Star-Picking Society travels between the various immortal ships and is naturally capable of handling these issues."

The tour guide's calm and composed demeanor brought the somewhat flustered passengers back to their senses, and they even began to observe the soldiers of the legion with great interest.

Indeed, this is true. The fact that the Star-Picking Society was able to open travel agencies between alliances and operate them for thousands of years shows that it must have some skills. As the saying goes, "If you don't have the skills, you can't take on the job."

Before long, the passengers, including Yu Tianyi, saw numerous burning flames shooting out from below Tiantong, which soon forced the distant legion to retreat.

Yu Tianyi easily recognized those as the Zhu Ming Fire, famous in the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship Alliance. If the power was large enough, it would be easy to shatter ordinary planets. He did not expect that the Star Picking Society would have the ability to obtain such a good thing.

"No, that's not right. Such heavy military equipment could not possibly be used by a travel agency, or at least not openly. But since they dare to show it off like this, they must have established a relationship with the Alliance's Cloud Cavalry."

After a moment's thought, and combining some information from the corners of his memory, he quickly understood what it meant. He guessed that they had hired the Cloud Cavalry's guards to protect them, and the Star Picking Society would give the Cloud Cavalry a generous reward.

Most passengers who can afford to travel to various fairy boats are at least financially secure, so using a portion of the profits to enhance the reputation is a win-win situation.

"However, I always have a strange feeling, but it's not danger, but a peculiar connection."

After the legion withdrew, there were no further unexpected incidents along the way, and the travel agency landed at Qingqiu Port in Yaoqing.

On his way down to Tiantong, Yu Tianyi suddenly had a sudden inspiration and discovered a vague connection in his perception.

He tried to trace the connection, only to discover that its source was Yu Xi, who was always by his side.

When Yu Tianyi and Jing Liu left Luofu, this little guy naturally wouldn't be absent. However, as a dimensional piggy bank, it didn't need to appear in reality. Along the way, it made cross-dimensional leaps in another dimension, following its master and mistress.

"Hoo-hoo (Master, I can feel it, it's the former master's feeling, there's no mistake. She's waiting for us at our destination)."

Yu Xi's voice echoed in his mind, startling Yu Tianyi. Wasn't Yu Xi's former master that...?

Before Tianyi could even spell out the name, his gaze fell upon an elegant woman wearing a light blue cheongsam, matching high heels that accentuated her long, slender legs, her hair flowing in the wind, her hands clasped behind her back.

However, the people passing by did not react to her at all, as if there was nothing there.

Ruan Mei seemed to have known when Yu Tianyi would arrive. She turned around the moment Yu Tianyi stepped onto Qingqiu Cave, and their eyes met.

"You came."

Yu Tianyi glanced at Jing Liu beside him and found that she, like the other passersby, had no reaction to Ruan Mei's appearance. He knew that she must have used some method to block their senses.

"That's not the case. It's simply because they are not of high enough rank to perceive my presence."

As if she could read minds, after such a thought flashed through Yu Tianyi's mind, Ruan Mei calmly explained the reason behind it.

Then she walked towards him, passing right through everyone else as if they were on different levels, and stopped directly in front of Yu Tianyi.

"I've come to you because there's been a problem with the experimental subject I cultivated, the piggy bank you named Yu Xi."

Seriously, another damp spell and then this thick fog? What's going on with the weather in Guangxi? _(|3」∠)_

Chapter 275 Current Situation

"You mean, the race known as the Twilight Ancient Beasts, which are the materials used to create Yu Xi, have come knocking on our door?"

"Yes, you can understand it that way, but the materials it uses and the races that come to it are not simply related by race."

Ruan Mei nodded. She had specifically set aside time to talk to Yu Tianyi about this matter so that she could discuss the subsequent arrangements for Yu Xi with him.

"This race is one of the powerful races that roam among the many branches. They are born to feed on the concept of destruction and often appear when the universe is about to perish. Because their appearance usually represents the arrival of the end of the world, they are named the Twilight Ancient Beasts."

Their progenitor slumbered before the birth of dimensions, and as a result, the ancient beasts you know are traces of them left in the branches.

To be honest, Yu Tianyi had not expected that Yu Xi, who seemed to have no fighting ability at all, would have such a powerful bloodline, even though Ruan Mei had previously explained that there were some mysterious aspects to Yu Xi.

Since Ruan Mei entrusted it to him, there shouldn't be any future troubles. If it was intentionally to test him, there would be no need for her to appear here to warn Yu Tianyi of the impending danger, or even plan to take Yu Xi away.

"What I fused into Yu Xi's body was a fragment of the progenitor of the Twilight Ancient Beasts, the Sky King. I had already made preparations to deal with it, but some accidents occurred, which led to the leak of this information."

Ruan Mei apologetically took Yu Xi out of the dimension and stroked its round body.

Then, through her explanation, Yu Tianyi learned the ins and outs of the matter. It turned out that he had been interfered with during the locust plague apocalypse, which caused some problems when he left the chapter, and the negative impact of these problems was absorbed by Yu Xi.

Part of this is the power of the Order 'One', and it was because of this that the Supreme Being behind Him discovered the problem.

Originally, this wouldn't have been a problem, but the appearance of the Heavenly Empress led to the expulsion of the 'Supreme One' from the universe where Yu Tianyi was located. In order to profit from this and make up for the losses, the other party leaked this information to the Twilight Ancient Beast Clan, which led to the current situation.

After learning the reason, Yu Tianyi frowned and looked around. While Ruan Mei was talking to him, everything around them was completely still.

He could sense that this stillness was different from when he used his talent; it wasn't directed at himself, but rather a genuine manipulation of the time dimension. This method of stretching a unit of time was completely beyond Yu Tianyi's comprehension.

He pondered for a moment, then made a request, “Ms. Ruan Mei, could you restore Yu Xi’s mobility? I would like to speak with it.”

Ruan Mei did not answer, but gave the answer with her actions. She raised her hand and pointed, and Yu Xi, who had been completely still, regained his vitality. His ears stood up in fright, but after realizing it was Ruan Mei, he relaxed and lay limply in her arms.

"You little rascal, you can't even walk when you see your former owner, can you?"

Looking at Yu Xi's appearance, Yu Tianyi couldn't help but laugh and scold. This thing showed no intention of escaping at the moment, just lying in Ruan Mei's arms, purring comfortably as it was being stroked.

"Although we haven't known each other for very long, I still want to thank Yu Xi for all the help he's given me. Now that danger has arrived, I'm not capable of protecting you in this situation. You should go back to Ms. Ruan Mei's side for a while."

He didn't have any intention of showing off, after all, the Twilight Ancient Beasts, a race that feeds on the concept of destruction, were something he couldn't possibly handle in his current state.

If they were to forcibly keep him here, not only would Tianyi himself be in danger, but even the reality he was in would be affected to some extent.

"Speaking of which, Ms. Ruan Mei, is it possible to create friction between the Twilight Beast and the civilizations attracted by my previous actions, thereby diverting the conflict?"

Yu Tianyi suddenly remembered something. The Heavenly Empress he summoned using the temporary event 'War God Xing Tian' of the cheat had caused a great upheaval, preventing him from entering the chapters of "The Order of Heaven" for some time. Was it possible to profit from this?

"Although the Twilight Ancient Beast has some connection with the ancient beasts you know, the two are fundamentally different and have almost no similarities. They also have different needs."

Therefore, there is no conflict of interest with those civilizations that come seeking refuge; to achieve this, it is necessary to offer something that both sides need.

Ruan Mei did not continue, but Yu Tianyi understood what she meant. They did not have anything that would make those civilizations so eager to devour it, or rather, they did have something but it could not be used as bait.

"The external struggles are intensifying, and even with the protection of the Heavenly Secrets, we are still in grave danger. Therefore, after you defeated Shuhu, the Black Tower left to prepare follow-up plans for you, which is why I came to talk to you this time."

Then she changed the subject and explained the general situation to Yu Tianyi, mentioning the whereabouts of the Black Tower.

"Even with the teacher's abilities, does it really require him to leave in person to accomplish this, and does it take such a long time?"

Now that Yu Tianyi has absorbed several books from the Black Tower, he is no longer completely ignorant of the abilities possessed by those levels.

Normally, even if one needs to go out on business, sending out one clone is enough to accomplish most things. Once the main body needs to be deployed, it will inevitably require communication with beings of the same or higher level.

Moreover, people at their level have long transcended the dimension of time. Even if they spend countless hours, they can easily return to the moment before they left, just like the effect that Ruan Mei is showing now.

"The places she goes to are quite risky, so she won't easily travel through the time dimension, lest she be exploited by someone with ulterior motives and become vulnerable to attack."

To use an analogy, actions in the dimension of time are like the password to a house lock. Once the code is figured out, it is easy to sneak in when the owner is not around and cause trouble.

"I understand."

Yu Tianyi nodded. His current abilities, apart from his cheat code, were not enough to get involved in the competition between these civilizations. Therefore, Ruan Mei did not explain much. She then took out a jellyfish that kept changing shape in the air and looked like it was made up of countless mirrors.

"I apologize for causing you some problems. This is the Lingxu Jellyfish, which can use causality to achieve interactions within most universes. It should be quite useful for your journey ahead."

Ugh, the floor is leaking water again!!! I don't remember it being like this last year, why is it damp all the time this year? I'm speechless.

Chapter 276 The Opportunity for Connection

[Lingxu Jellyfish: A special item cultivated by Canmei 'Ruan Mei', capable of establishing channels in discrete spacetime through causality and transmitting most concepts, including matter and energy.]

"If I understand correctly, it should be able to help me establish connections between different chapters; is it a product that can break down the barriers between chapters?"

After reading the description of the jellyfish in his hand, Yu Tianyi's eyes widened in surprise. If it was really possible, he could bring Fu Xuan and the others into reality, or bring people from reality into other chapters.

It's important to know that in the chapter about the locust plague apocalypse, he actually possesses a genuine clone of the God of Abundance, which can basically solve most of the problems he's currently facing.

Of course, whether this item can truly break the limitations left by cheats remains to be seen.

After giving him the jellyfish, Ruan Mei left with Yu Xi, telling him before she left that the extended time unit would continue for ten minutes as Tian Yi perceived it.

Therefore, he did not start the experiment immediately, but carefully put the jellyfish rolling in his hand into his inventory.

Although this jellyfish appears to be a normal life form, it is actually just an artificial intelligence, a product cultivated simply as a tool. It is best not to endow it with the ability to think.
