Douluo Continent: I ushered in this era

Yun Ming slowly lowered his head, gazing longingly at the stunningly beautiful face below. "I have no face to meet the ancestors of Shrek Academy. Farewell, Ya Li. Take good care of yourself, and preserve the last seed for Shrek Academy."

After saying this, the Sky-Piercing Spear in his hand suddenly trembled, and the golden rays behind him suddenly collapsed. At the same time as they collapsed, countless dazzling golden lights suddenly burst forth, instantly spreading to the entire Shrek City and completely enveloping the sky above the entire city.

The collapse of the gods, the fall of the gods, and the life energy of the ancient golden tree brought Yun Ming to the pinnacle he could reach in his life.

Purple and black, neutralized by the gold, were forcibly drawn into the air, where the three colors collided and intertwined, constantly disintegrating and shattering.

As the power of the level 12 fixed-position soul-guided cannon was held back by the last burst of light from Yun Ming, Chu Ci also appeared out of thin air above the fleeing crowd.

"It's Brother Ci!" Xie Xie, with his sharp eyes, noticed Chu Ci's appearance immediately and exclaimed.

Tang Wulin was startled and shouted, "Brother Ci, run!"

Chu Ci looked coldly at the energy storm that was capable of destroying everything not far away. The Flower of Creation martial soul slowly bloomed behind him, and his seventh soul ring shone brightly in the world.

Mountains rise, the sun hangs high, the Milky Way descends from the heavens, clouds drift, trees are lush, and creatures such as flowers, birds, fish, and insects roam freely. The whole world is shrouded in mist, like an unattainable fairyland.

The Yunmeng Marsh was revealed to the world in its entirety for the first time, announcing its arrival.

"I will transform the world!" Chu Ci murmured.

He transformed into a ball of seven-colored light and merged into the Yunmeng Marsh that he had just descended upon. The Yunmeng Marsh was immediately enveloped in the seven-colored light, and the rules of heaven and earth were revealed within it. A transparent film slowly appeared on the outside.

The seven figures—Donghuang Taiyi, Dongjun, Yunzhongjun, Shangui, Hebo, Dasiming, and Shaosiming—stood in different positions, maintaining the operation of Yunmengze and upholding the newly born rules.

Chu Ci used his Martial Soul True Body to create the rules of a world within himself, and then merged with Yunmengze, which already had the potential to become a real world, temporarily allowing Yunmengze to evolve into a real world.

The Yunmeng Marsh unfolded, instantly swallowing it up like a primordial beast.

At the same time, the immortal mist within Yunmeng Marsh gathered into two giant hands that reached out with lightning speed. One hand scooped up Ya Li, while the other held the Sky-Supporting Spear, which had finally broken free from the range of the martial soul and truly solidified into a physical form, before retreating back into Yunmeng Marsh.

Seeing this scene, and the ethereal beauty of Yun Mengze, Yun Ming felt a sense of relief. He then spread his arms, his golden light surging to its peak, making him resemble a true sun. The next moment, he shot towards the enormous skull in the distance.

In the dazzling golden light, the enormous skull was swallowed up in response, and the entire sky instantly turned into a blinding white! The darkness seemed to have been dispelled by the intense light, bringing with it a final wave of energy storms that turned everything in its path into dust.

Inside the Yunmeng Marsh, Donghuang Taiyi and six others held up the sky with their hands, desperately resisting this final wave of energy storm.

Pure celestial mist swirled around Yunmeng Marsh, stubbornly resisting the energy storm. Within Yunmeng Marsh, the winds and clouds surged, mountains crumbled, and rivers overflowed, resembling a scene of apocalypse.

Yunmengze was teetering on the brink of collapse, as if it would be swallowed up by the energy storm at any moment.

Suddenly, the world rules within Yunmeng Marsh began to crumble layer by layer. The destruction of a world rule unleashed energy no less powerful than the collapse of a god's throne.

After all, the standards of the world are no lower than those of a god.

The energy released by the collapse of the rules of the inner world of Yunmengze instantly stabilized the invasion of the energy storm. In that instant, Yunmengze was enveloped in a layer of silver. With a spatial fluctuation, Yunmengze flashed with silver light and disappeared from the spot.

When Yunmengze reappeared, it was already outside the range of the energy storm.

A large gash appeared in the Yunmeng Marsh, as if pouring out beans and spitting everyone out at once.

Tang Wulin and the others fell to the ground in a scattered manner, and when they got up, they all looked bewildered, as if they didn't understand what had happened.

Le Zhengyu struggled to his feet, trembling as he asked, "What... what happened?"

Tang Wulin suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of Shrek City, and was stunned. The once prosperous megacity was now nothing but ruins and charred ruins.

Shrek City is gone!

Wu Changkong appeared beside the Shrek Seven Devils, anxiously checking on their condition.

"How is everyone? Are you all alright?" Zhuo Shi suppressed his grief and gathered the survivors of Shrek Academy together to inquire about their situation.

Tang Wulin was still staring blankly in the direction of Shrek City, seemingly still unable to recover from the fact that Shrek Academy had been destroyed.

Not only Tang Wulin, but all the other students of Shrek Academy were stunned.

Chapter 307 Chu Ci Healing, A Thousand Years of Wrath

"Everyone, wake up and restore order at the scene as soon as possible."

Chu Ci's figure appeared beside Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin jolted awake, instantly regaining his senses. Seeing Chu Ci beside him, his eyes reddened, and he grabbed Chu Ci's arm tightly.

"Brother Ci, Shrek City isn't there..."

Before Tang Wulin could finish speaking, Chu Ci coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to her knees, powerless.

"Brother Ci!" Exclamations rang out one after another. Tang Wulin squatted down and supported Chu Ci's swaying body, and the others also gathered around.

Having been caught in the energy storm, how could Chu Ci not be injured? Thin streams of blood trickled down Chu Ci's lips, and his entire body throbbed with excruciating pain as if his tendons and veins were being severed; Chu Ci's condition was already quite dire.

At this moment, Yu Guanzhi and Guan Yue arrived one after another. When Guan Yue saw Chu Ci, who was breathing weakly, her expression changed and she hurriedly checked on Chu Ci's condition.

Chu Ci forced himself to stand up and said weakly, "Ancestor, please cooperate with Hall Master Guan and Commander Yu to maintain order and settle the survivors."

"You guys handle the rest, I'm leaving now!"

The next moment, the silver dragon necklace around Chu Ci's neck flashed with silver light, and in the blink of an eye, Chu Ci disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Wait a minute!" Guan Yue reached out to grab it but missed. He was shocked. He was a Limit Douluo, yet he hadn't reacted to such close-range spatial movement.

Yu Guanzhi stepped forward and said solemnly, "Guan Yue, Zhuo Shi, the most urgent task now is to settle the survivors properly!"

Although Zhuoshi was deeply saddened by the destruction of the academy, he was the highest-ranking person present and had to take responsibility.

"Alright, I'll be responsible for gathering everyone in Shrek City to cooperate with you and make sure their safety is guaranteed."

……

With a flash of silver light, Chu Ci appeared in the Realm of the Moon's Decree. She stumbled and took two steps, but finally could not support her severely injured body and collapsed forward helplessly.

Just as Chu Ci was about to bang his head on the ground, Gu Yuena appeared in time to support him.

Gu Yuena probed Chu Ci's body with her soul power to check his condition. What she saw shocked her, because Chu Ci's internal condition was a complete mess.

"Bridget! Bridget!" Gu Yuena held Chu Ci in her arms, channeling soul power into him to maintain his physical condition while calling out loudly.

Upon hearing Gu Yuena's call, Biji instantly appeared beside her and immediately saw Chu Ci's terrible condition, thus understanding why Gu Yuena had summoned her.

Emerald green light appeared on Bi Ji's hands, and the vibrant light covered Chu Ci's entire body, slowly healing his injuries.

While treating Chu Ci, Bi Ji comforted Gu Yue Na.

"My lord, Mr. Chu Ci's injuries seem severe, but vital organs such as his heart are perfectly intact thanks to the protection of a strange power."

"Therefore, Mr. Chu Ci will not be in any danger to his life, so Your Majesty need not worry so much."

Gu Yuena breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Bi Ji's words. Bi Ji was the strongest healing-type soul beast in the world, and her perception of her life force was extremely keen, so her judgment was basically correct.

"Damn it, you said nothing would happen, how did you end up in such a mess!" Gu Yuena gently stroked Chu Ci's cheek and said with heartache.

Because of the Silver Dragon Necklace, Gu Yuena could sense Chu Ci's condition. So when Chu Ci risked his life to withstand the terrifying energy storm, Gu Yuena wanted to teleport directly to help him.

However, Chu Ci somehow managed to erect a transparent barrier that even Gu Yuena couldn't break, preventing Gu Yuena from arriving immediately.

At this moment, Taiyi appeared to the side and respectfully said, "Mistress."

"Taiyi, is there something you need?" Gu Yuena asked, looking up.

Taiyi respectfully said, "Mistress, please take the Lord back to Yunmengze. The Seven-Colored Aurora Lake contains abundant life energy, which will be more conducive to the Lord's recovery!"

After thinking for a moment, Gu Yuena nodded, "Alright, after Biji stabilizes Chu Ci's injuries, we'll take him back to Yunmengze."

Chu Ci quietly healed her wounds in the Realm of the Moon and the Cloud Dream Marsh, while outside, the destruction of Shrek City caused a great uproar.

……

"Snapped!"

Inside the Spirit Pagoda, Qian Gu Dongfeng smashed the teacup in front of him on the ground and roared at a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance but a very capable look who strode in.

"What? You said the Shrek Academy students were rescued!"

The middle-aged man lowered his head and said softly, "Yes, Shrek Academy somehow managed to send almost all of its students out, as well as some residents of Shrek City. They have been temporarily settled in Tiandou City."

Qian Gu Dong Feng slammed his fist on the table in front of him, making a loud noise. The extremely sturdy table, made of multiple alloys, instantly turned into dust.

"Idiots! That bunch of idiots from the Holy Spirit Cult! Two God-Slaying level fixed-position soul-guided cannonballs, plus countless level seven and above fixed-position soul-guided cannonballs, and they still let so many Shrek Academy students escape! What are they all good for!"

Qian Gu Dongfeng was furious. They had contacted the Holy Spirit Cult and helped them steal the fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells, taking such a huge risk, yet they still couldn't wipe out Shrek Academy. It was a huge loss for them.

The middle-aged man hurriedly advised, "Tower Master, although many people from Shrek City have escaped, the Tang Sect headquarters has been destroyed, and Shrek Academy's strength is less than one-tenth of what it used to be."

"The Sky-Supporting Douluo, who posed the greatest threat to our Spirit Pagoda, is dead. Most of the powerful figures in the Sea God Pavilion have also been killed or injured. The survivors no longer pose a threat to our Spirit Pagoda."

Upon hearing this, Qian Gu Dongfeng's expression softened slightly.

After pacing back and forth twice, Qian Gu Dongfeng instructed, "Proceed according to the original plan, and send more people to Tian Dou City to keep a close eye on the group of surviving Shrek Academy students."

"Yes."

The middle-aged man left. Qian Gu Dong Feng walked to the bedside, gazing at the patches of white clouds outside the window, his eyes slightly narrowed, lost in thought.

……

"Shrek City has suddenly encountered this unprecedented disaster, and the Federation bears an unshirkable responsibility. The Federal Parliament has been dissolved, and a new general election will be held at a later date."

"........."

Across mainland China, Shrek Academy graduates held mourning events to deeply mourn the victims of the Shrek tragedy.

In a luxuriously decorated office on the top floor of the Chu Group branch building in Tiandou City, a Soul Guidance Television screen was displaying news about the destruction of Shrek Academy.

Chu Ci and a gray-haired woman sat in chairs, quietly watching the messages flashing on the screen.

Chapter 308 Post-Disaster Chat

"Knock knock knock," the office door was knocked on, and Chu Ci's voice rang out.

"Enter!"

The office door was pushed open, and seven people filed in, none other than the Shrek Seven Devils led by Tang Wulin.

"Brother Ci, I..." Tang Wulin, who was the first to enter, stopped abruptly when his eyes swept over the white-haired woman sitting to the side, and he froze on the spot.

"Your Majesty, you..." Tang Wulin stared at the white-haired woman in astonishment, hardly believing his eyes.

Yali had changed. She was completely different. She looked like she had been dehydrated, her face was pale, her eyes were lifeless, and she appeared emaciated. Her once stunning beauty now even looked somewhat withered, and her long hair had turned completely gray.

Just like in the original story, Ya Li couldn't bear the blow of Yun Ming's departure, and her hair turned white overnight.

Chu Ci shook his head at Tang Wulin. Tang Wulin understood, sighed, and said, "Your Majesty, how is your recovery going?"
