From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

"uncertain."

Zhao Yingkong remained wary of Chu Xuan, scanning the surrounding sandstorm with a cold expression, "But I can break out on my own without much trouble."

After saying that, she looked at Jiang Liu and asked, "Can you take us out with you by flying through the clouds?"

"That's right! Soaring through the clouds!"

Reminded by Zhao Yingkong, Lu Jin was also excited, believing that Jiang Liu could use Qi to flow with the wind and human magnetism to follow the field, and could take them flying away with him.

"The feat of flying? That's a bit difficult here!" Jiang Liu shook his head.

"What's so difficult about it?"

Zhao Yingkong knew that this technique was difficult to use to lead people, but it wasn't impossible to drag ordinary people out, so she was somewhat puzzled.

“I sensed that this disaster was originally natural, but Imhotep used it and integrated it into the local atmosphere, which is why it presents this ring-shaped sandstorm.”

Jiang Liu closed his eyes, feeling the wind brushing against his face and the trembling of the sand on the ground, and made a judgment: "The wind is too strong, and the quicksand deeper underground is also surging. Perhaps because there are too many placer gold and metal minerals below, although the quicksand is surging, it also causes the magnetic field in this area to become chaotic."

My method of soaring through the clouds, where Qi transforms and flows with the airflow, and a person's magnetic field moves with the field, allows me to go out, but it would be troublesome to take you all with me, not to mention there are three ordinary people present.”

Lu Jin then realized that the method of flying through the clouds was not suitable for ordinary people. If he wanted to bring Evelyn, O'Connor, and Jonathan along, Brother Jiang would have to pull and drag them along as they went.

Medgar Warrior: "..."

"Can you guys stop chatting? It's almost dark if you keep going!"

O'Connor couldn't stand it any longer and interrupted the conversation between the three, "If you have any ideas, use them now! Otherwise, we'll all die when the sandstorm gets closer!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Liu looked towards the horizon. The sun was nearing dusk and had not yet completely set in the west, but a crescent moon was already hanging in the sky, a rare sight of the sun and moon in the same sky. He then instructed Zhao Yingkong, "You have already activated the fourth-order gene lock and have some sense of the aura, right?"

"Upon reaching the fourth stage, the ability to sense the external environment and the energy flow within it becomes a fundamental instinct."

Zhao Yingkong asked bluntly, "Do you need me to sense the environment?"

Jiang Liu didn't answer, but asked another question: "In other words, having reached this stage, the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, the Five Elements Elixir Formation, and the Tang Sect techniques that I taught you have all reached their peak, and can even be integrated into one, right?"

"Yes, at this stage, humans can perfectly integrate their own energy cycle. Even without any cultivation, they can simulate the most suitable, complete, or even infinitely close to perfect energy cycle system for themselves. With the continuous optimization and solidification of genes, surpassing humans is a piece of cake."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Yingkong understood Jiang Liu's thoughts—

This is a test for her!

"So, you want me to take action, but not through violence, but by integrating my own energy cycle system and using my understanding and perception of the energy flow in the environment to break through the surface and solve this sandstorm?"

Before Jiang Liu could answer, Zhao Yingkong adjusted her breathing and began reciting the Heart Sutra, chanting: "Gate! Gate! Paragate! Parasamgate! Bodhi Svaha!"

In an instant, Zhao Yingkong's mind became completely calm, like a meditating Bodhisattva, her eyes as gentle as a pool of autumn water, without a ripple.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Yingkong used the Light of the Mind: Sakura Phoenix, merging it with the energy circulation system within her body. Based on the Heart Sutra, she stabilized her mind, circulated her Qi throughout her body, and integrated it into every cell, causing her entire body, along with her clothes and belongings, to be covered in a faint pink halo.

wow——

Then, to everyone's astonishment, Zhao Yingkong transformed into countless pink petals, flowing with the wind and magnetism within the aura of Hamunaptra.

Having cultivated to the point of eight or nine and formed the elixir of the five aggregates, Zhao Yingkong naturally also mastered the methods of Qi transformation and human magnetism, but she did not usually like to use these abilities.

Gradually.

The petals were dispersed into finer particles, forming a pink mist of light that eventually disappeared.

She has completely merged into the atmosphere!

Imhotep, who was also immersed in the atmosphere, was taken aback. He hadn't expected that there were others in the world who could blend into their environment like him.

More importantly, it was a living, breathing human being!

Even if he were fully resurrected, without relying on the Book of the Dead, it would be difficult for him to fully integrate himself into the energy flow path of this strange environment, let alone use it to trigger such a large-scale sandstorm.

How did you do that?

Within the invisible aura, Imhotep sensed Zhao Yingkong's spiritual power through his mental strength.

But Zhao Yingkong ignored it, using Imhotep's mental power to lock onto its location, and the Light of the Mind: Sakura Phoenix condensed into an invisible spearhead and burst forth.

"what!"

Imhotep's soul let out a scream, immediately abandoned the fusion formation, and fled into the sea of ​​sand, condensing into a mummy's body, escaping the place along the quicksand.

Imhotep, who suffered the punishments of having his tongue cut out and being eaten by insects, naturally possessed immense mental strength. However, without being fully resurrected and without a true primordial spirit to bear this mental strength, he could hardly exert it. Even when integrated into the energy field, its harmony was not as good as Zhao Yingkong's, who had cultivated the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, formed the Five Elements Pill, and integrated them into a complete and highly personalized energy circulation system.

Furthermore.

The Light of the Soul is about using the primordial spirit to control the mind and leveraging the mind to influence the laws of the world.

How can Imhotep compare?

To dare to clash with Zhao Yingkong's spiritual power is tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock.

only--

The problem in Imhotep has been temporarily resolved, but the ring-shaped dust storm has not stopped.

reason?

In a complete dynamic system, even the slightest change in initial conditions will affect the overall development outcome, thus producing extremely significant changes.

Once the result is achieved, it is futile to change the subtle initial conditions.

In short, it's the "butterfly effect".

A butterfly flapping its wings in South America could potentially trigger a tornado in Texas, USA.

Once a tornado erupts, can killing the butterfly that flaps its wings bring the raging tornado to an abrupt end?

Absolutely impossible!

Unless you travel through time and go back to the past, but that would create a paradox.

The same is true!

The sandstorm that Imhotep brought about by his aura cannot be resolved simply by temporarily excluding him.

Not to mention, this sandstorm was a natural disaster and should have been insignificant. It was only because Imhotep was integrated into Hamunaptra's aura and amplified by the power of the aura, and merged with the airflow of heaven and earth, that it led to such serious consequences.

therefore.

Evelyn, Jonathan, and O'Connor must survive this sandstorm if they want to live!

# Chapter 536 Overcoming the Sandstorm with Human Strength

"Just tough it out?"

Upon learning that Zhao Yingkong was unable to resolve the sandstorm, O'Connor exclaimed, "We're not Supermen! We don't have magic!"

"Don't worry, I'm not telling you to tough it out on your own."

After Jiang Liu finished speaking, he clasped his hands together, forming a fist, holding a talisman, and sat cross-legged, merging his body with heaven and earth and his mind with nature.

After that, his eyes reflected the sun and moon on the horizon, and circled the stars in the sky, connecting with Hamunaptra's aura, and he saw clearly the shape of Hamunaptra's aura.

If the aura of Guixu is like the legendary Kunpeng, then the aura of this place is like the tail of a giant scorpion.

That's right!

It's just a scorpion tail!

In Jiang Liu's perception, Hamunaptra is built on the barb of the scorpion's tail, located in the north, while the scorpion's body is in the south.

However, because Hamunapa's aura had not fully dissipated, and a sandstorm had also arisen at this time, only a faint, broken scorpion-shaped seal could be barely outlined.

Holding the scorpion-shaped talisman, Jiang Liu could manipulate the aura of Hamunaptra. In coordination with Zhao Yingkong, who had already merged into the aura, the air surrounding Hamunaptra flowed counterclockwise, forming a ring-shaped tornado that spread outwards.

This is an attempt to use a tornado to combat a circular dust storm!

However, compared to the already formed, approaching, and nearly 100-meter-high ring-shaped dust storm, the ring-shaped tornado, driven by the river and assisted by Zhao Yingkong, was low, only 30 meters high, and due to the approaching ring-shaped dust storm, it could no longer combine with the airflow at higher altitudes!

In other words, Jiang Liu and Zhao Yingkong were simply using their own power to influence the atmospheric conditions, forming a tornado to counter the circular sandstorm.

call--

The sandstorm roared in and collided with the outward-spreading tornado, much like a child competing with an adult in strength. Even if the child had learned to use skill and could push the sandstorm in a counter-clockwise direction, it would still be compressed and forced to move closer to the center of Hamunaptra in the first instant.

The rapidly spinning tornado was covered in yellow sand and continued to approach the group.

O'Connor, Jonathan, Evelyn, and the Medgar warriors looked up and saw yellow sand stretching across the sky like surging ocean waves, about to pour down. They all closed their eyes, awaiting nature's judgment.

one second.

Two seconds...

Three seconds!

Evelyn heard only the howling of the wind and the rustling of the sand, but felt that the yellow sand had not covered her, so she opened her eyes.

All around was pitch black, except for Jiang Liu, who sat cross-legged on the ground, radiating golden and silver light that illuminated the darkness.

The sandstorm had already covered Hamnata, but Jiang Liu mobilized the air currents, forming a tornado, and together with Zhao Yingkong, they protected the area within a radius of 100 meters.

The top of the tornado was pushed and closed by the sandstorm, forming a semi-circular, high-speed rotating dome!

The sandstorm couldn't penetrate it, and the semi-circular tornado could push it away by rotating! Right now, Jiang Liu and Duanmu Ying's task was to hold out until the sandstorm passed!

My God!

The storm howled, the sand clashed, and even a few streaks of lightning appeared on the periphery, but none of them could penetrate it.

O'Connor bent his knees and knelt down before Jiang Liu, feeling both relief at surviving the ordeal and reverence for Jiang Liu.

And what about everyone else?

but.

Lu Jin, however, was not idle. He also circulated his profound skills, reversed the flow of Qi through the nine orifices and rotated the eight meridians, and tried his best to adjust his breathing, trying to sense the flow of Qi in this place, hoping to make further progress through this.

Although Lu Jin's current strength is enough to crush Li Muxuan, or even Si Chong, if he wants to set things right and prevent the Sanyi Sect from being immersed in the glorious past of the "Xuanmen" and from being obsessed with the illusory dream of "Triple Heaven", he needs to reach the heavens and subdue the entire Sanyi Sect, including Li Muxuan and Si Chong!

Furthermore, understanding the changes in the flow of energy within the Qi formation can aid in controlling the timing of cultivation, so he naturally wanted to seize this opportunity.

"Even the Heavenly Realm isn't this impressive, is it?"

Duanmu Ying had already gained some understanding of Jiang Liu's strength during their trip to Guixu, but surfing on the Alexander and resisting sandstorms with manpower were two completely different things!

While using the Alexander as a surfboard may seem exaggerated, it ultimately relies on one's formidable life cultivation and exquisite control over Qi.
