"Oh?"

"Look."

You Sha spread out her five fingers, which were as white as jade, and a small world suddenly appeared in her palm, with countless strange phenomena changing within it.

Sometimes it's an ancient medieval kingdom, sometimes it's the Industrial Revolution of the steam age, and sometimes it's the brutal battlefield of World War II in the last century.

This was none other than the 'Fate Reversal' technique, which she had perfected over seventy years, surpassing even the sages of the past. The image of bubbles constantly bursting and being reborn in her palm corresponded to parallel universes that were completely different in history.

Gradually, You Sha moved her five fingers, and the complex scene disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, until finally only a clear pool of transparent spring water remained, reflecting the faces of Jiang Mo and You Sha.

This is what corresponds to the current time and space.

Besides the projections of the two people, a golden particle also appeared in the spring water, appearing and disappearing, constantly shifting its position.

Jiang Mo, who was familiar with 'Fate Reversal', frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "This is...?"

"Two hours ago, we detected a spacetime fluctuation. It's an outsider from another world. We can't determine yet whether it's a person or something else. It could even be a natural wormhole that was sealed by us humans or other highly intelligent life forms in the past. I didn't see it with my own eyes, so I can't say for sure..."

You Sha seemed lost in thought, her expression grave, as if she couldn't suppress her desire for knowledge, yet also worried about the lurking danger.

Chapter 373 The Eye of Truth, Barrage of Artillery Fire

Hearing her description, Jiang Mo immediately became interested and subconsciously asked, "Can you track its exact location?"

“…”

You Sha remained silent, only gently shaking her head. Her right hand fell to her sides, and the water mirror dissipated.

"You want to go find it?"

Jiang Mo met her gaze into those grey-silver eyes and easily understood the woman's true thoughts.

Such a spatial anomaly is a fatal temptation for any legendary mage who studies forbidden spatial arts. The caution and composure accumulated over the years cannot resist the fervent pursuit, and all vanish in an instant.

Just like the disciples of the Trinity Sect in the past, who yearned for the Triple Rebirth, they rushed forward like moths to a flame, never stopping for a moment even when they encountered the remains of their masters along the way.

Therefore, Jiang Mo understands You Sha's feelings at this moment better than anyone else.

She pondered for a moment, made a decision, and confided, "Yes, my journey is nearing its end. The scenery is all there, and it's all become monotonous and boring..."

"Moreover, unlike your endless cultivation, I am not lacking in perseverance, but only in talent."

"Among the many schools of thought and fields pioneered by our predecessors, I really have no ability to explore a new territory of my own. I can only follow their paths and go further than they have... When the road ends, there is only nothing left."

You Sha spoke frankly, and even though she might be the most powerful magician in China, she was extremely humble at this moment, her tone even tinged with shame.

The higher she climbed, the narrower the path ahead seemed, and the less she received in return for her hard work.

She had thoroughly mastered the mountain of magical tomes and could effortlessly wield various forbidden spells. Her only regret was that the knowledge she could explore was becoming increasingly scarce.

Moreover, she had a very strong premonition that this spatial anomaly might bring about a leap in her transformation.

"If you've made up your mind, then go ahead."

Jiang Mo offered his support, saying with a faint smile, "There's no time limit. Whenever you find it and are completely satisfied, you're welcome to come back anytime."

"Thank you..."

Faced with the expected result, You Sha had a barely perceptible smile on her lips, yet it was like a plum blossom in the dead of winter, blooming in an instant, so stunning that the passage of time seemed to freeze at that moment.

She was breathtakingly beautiful; it seemed that most of the words used to praise the opposite sex could be perfectly applied to her.

"Is the Six Treasuries complete yet?"

Jiang Mo didn't know how long she would be gone on this trip, and since he didn't want to part ways forever, he asked this question.

After many years of companionship, he had long regarded this Dharma protector as a friend.

"It's almost there. Don't believe me? Feel it."

You Sha's face was as flawless as when they first met 74 years ago, and her skin was like warm mutton fat jade. She gently extended her hand to Jiang Mo.

"it is good."

Jiang Mo understood that she wanted to test it herself, so he complied and extended his right hand to shake her left hand.

In an instant, that soft, warm hand slightly closed, its ten fingers interlocked, and a terrifying pulling force, almost like a black hole, burst forth from its palm, wantonly drawing away his true qi and blood essence.

"You don't mind if I stock up on some, do you?"

You Sha's gaze was both gentle and bold, as if a thousand words were overflowing from the depths of her heart.

"store."

"Don't let yourself starve to death outside."

Jiang Mo's true qi and blood are like an erupting active volcano, inexhaustible and he doesn't care about sharing a little with You Sha.

He was always grateful to You Sha for watching over him during his many years of wandering and two periods of seclusion.

"Wow..."

Their tightly clasped hands are frantically transferring power.

Before long, streaks of blood appeared on You Sha's body, and the white vortex that hovered in her palm was on the verge of collapse.

Her gluttonous body was full, almost bursting, while Jiang Mo remained unchanged, showing no sign of change. Only he knew that it was merely a difference of 1000 to 999, less than he had expected.

As the vortex dissipated, the true qi and blood were no longer guided, but the frost-like left hand still refused to let go, as if it lingered on the warmth that was so close at hand.

"I also have a gift for you."

"Ok?"

Jiang Mo was puzzled. Suddenly, a faint ripple came from his palm, as if a cool liquid was wriggling and gradually forming a special pattern.

"The Eye of Truth, the ultimate form of my innate ability."

"I used magic and alchemy to extract it, refine it into an engraving, and graft it onto your hand. It can read emotions, thoughts, and memories, and eavesdrop on your inner thoughts. I hope it will be of some help to you."

"In the future, if you encounter any minor troubles while I'm away, you'll need to handle them yourself."

Jiang Mo looked down and saw a pattern on his palm: a deep eye adorned with faintly visible stars. The power within it was naturally under his control, as if it were his own arm.

"My bloodline and genes are very ordinary. Even if I fully develop my innate abilities, they won't have any earth-shattering power."

"All it can do is let you sense danger in advance, see through people's hearts, and intercept memories, such trivial things."

"In fact, memories can be overwritten and modified. As far as I know, there are five forbidden magical techniques."

"The Eye of Truth initially aimed to find obscured and sealed memories as much as possible. When I realized this drawback, I added some 'Fate Reshaping' runes when I was crafting it. In this way, after activating the ability, it will invade and copy the caster's memories in a continuous state, in countless moments, spanning all of his life before the present time, and restoring the full picture of the lost memories."

Yusha explained in detail the function of the 'Eye of Truth,' and the only price to pay for using it was mental exhaustion.

"Thank you for the gift."

Jiang Mo kept her instructions in mind and gradually became more proficient in controlling the 'Eye of Truth'.

"You've always been so polite, it's almost too polite for you."

With a graceful smile, You Sha released her left hand instinctively and continued:

"I left a notebook on the third floor. I didn't take most of the alchemical creations with me. If you feel like it someday and want to go in and look through them, just read the instruction manual."

"Okay, be careful out there. When are you leaving?"

"Now."

Yu Sha speaks concisely; she never procrastinates and acts on her impulses, doing whatever comes to mind.

"..."

Jiang Mo silently poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her as a farewell gesture.

"Thanks, wish me luck."

You Sha took it, brought it to her lips, tilted her head slightly, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Good luck to you."

Jiang Mo got up and walked with her out of the Sutra Repository. Under the bright moonlight, which resembled a silver ocean, he personally escorted her to the end of the stone steps outside the mountain gate.

"Will I let you know when I find it so you can come and see?"

Before parting, You Sha stopped and extended an invitation to Jiang Mo.

"Okay, let me see something new. Thanks to you."

"Goodbye, then."

You Sha waved her right hand, her figure gradually becoming transparent, and then disappeared.

.....

A few days later, in the evening.

Two young disciples inside the gate were feeding three football-sized, jet-black bullet ants with a bowl of minced chicken leg meat.

Sitting in the courtyard, Jiang Mo browsed the top ten most popular posts on the dark web. The title of the first post read, "China signs purchase contracts for supernatural locks with 11 countries; Japanese delegation suspected of stealing secrets, executed by the UN Security Council!"

He clicked to view the messages, and lines of comments came into view, giving him a general idea of ​​the situation.

The deaths of Matsubara Managa and Yano Rin caused a huge uproar. The truth they learned was hard for some of the Japanese Level 4 Awakened to accept.

Unfortunately, they were preoccupied with their own problems and had no choice but to suppress their anger for the time being, planning to hold them accountable later.

According to speculation from users on the dark web who love to stir up trouble, Japan has quite a few top fighters ranked No. 50 globally, and Matsubara Managa and Yano Rin are particularly powerful. Even if they were executed, there would inevitably be a fierce battle.

Such rumors lasted only a day and a half before being refuted by cold and cruel facts.

On the third day after the contract was signed, some awakened factions, having received word of the deal, became restless. They strictly prohibited the other party from selling ability locks to their country, thereby shrinking their living space. They even explicitly stated that once the contract was implemented, they would be prepared for mutual destruction, disregarding everything and exchanging casualties.

Those awakened forces, who prided themselves on being in a remote location, more than 10,000 kilometers away, and therefore safe enough, did not expect to suffer the most devastating blow on the very day they released the news.

On July 3, at 9:7 a.m., the three presidents of the Security Council informed their counterparts from Russia, the United Kingdom, and France of the relevant situation and obtained temporary entry rights.

Subsequently, Gao Yushan discovered the exact location of a certain rebel force.

At 9:30, Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei appeared in the far north of Russia.

Using supernatural ability detectors and satellite navigation, they located the lair of over a hundred rebels and launched a one-sided massacre with no suspense. The two worked together seamlessly, killing 6 Level 4 Awakened and 108 Level 3 Awakened.

At 10 o'clock, five Class B mechs roared across the sky in the mountains deep in the heart of France.

Wei Yuanming personally led the encirclement and suppression, with the assistance of several vice presidents. The sky was filled with artillery fire, high-energy particle beams blasted through the mountains and forests, and high-yield missiles rained down like a storm, turning the rebels' stronghold into a living hell, with flames soaring into the sky.

One after another, figures panicked and tried to escape, only to be decapitated in an instant by the ink-colored sword energy that slashed down from the sky. Wei Yuanming swept across the battlefield, and under the suppression of the mechs' firepower, his enemies didn't even have a chance to catch their breath.

In the past hour and 46 minutes, within a 5km radius, there were 4 Level 4 survivors and 160 Level 3 survivors, none of whom survived.

At 11:15, in a small border town in England, Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei arrived at their destination again and fought with five Level 4 Awakened. The battle caused large areas of the streets to collapse. The two sides were like fire and water, and every move was deadly. Countless low-level Awakened died like cannon fodder.

At 2 p.m., more news came: 3 of the 5 Level 4 Awakened beings were killed, and 2 were seriously injured and escaped.

In just one day, Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei joined forces to kill nine Level 4 Awakened Individuals from two countries, plus nearly 300 Level 3 Awakened Individuals, thus becoming famous worldwide and shocking both China and the world.

Chapter 374 The Top Ten in the World, Monsters Created by Nuclear Leaks

This is the first time in the world that a country, after quelling an unrest among awakened individuals within its borders, still has the resources to travel to another country to execute its enemies, and the results are remarkable.

Russia, Britain, and France lost a total of 12 Level 4 Awakened, including two who were ranked among the top 20 in the world: 'Dust Tyrant' Lucart, who dominated the far north of Russia, and 'Shadow Lord' Sturena, from Britain.

As Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei trampled over their corpses, their rankings steadily improved: No.13 → No.9, No.21 → 17.

Most of the extraordinary individuals watching the battle on the dark web couldn't understand where the two's potential was, so they took the initiative to investigate relevant information. After learning the truth, they gradually felt that it made sense.

One is a junior disciple of the Venerable Chenqing, and the other is the holder of the thousand-year-old Taoist tradition of China.

In the old era, they were far stronger than most of the world's strongest beings. Even in the new era, without being injected with the G1 evolution reagent, they still exhibit unparalleled dominance.

The world's top 100 strongest individuals are basically marked with specific honorific titles on the dark web, either using existing titles or creating new ones based on their current deeds.

For example, the Old Celestial Master's full title on the ranking list is "Celestial Taoist Master Zhang Zhiwei";

His old friend was 'Flawless Frost Lord Lu Jin';

In front of the screen, Jiang Mo scrolled down with his fingertips, his gaze moving from the top 50 names to No.1, whose face was displayed in a high-definition image, hanging high at the top of all the evolved beings. Following behind him was none other than Elvis from the United States, the only Level 5 Awakened Being in the world.

He was a middle-aged man with a sickly complexion and dark circles under his eyes.

His hair was disheveled, and he looked haggard and extremely tired. His dark brown eyes held a sharp edge that seemed to be about to burst forth, as if he were a special agent who had fought on the battlefield for a long time and carried out a special mission, whose title was 'Supreme Blade'.

Jiang Mo's gaze lingered on the image for only a few seconds before shifting to the No.3 Primordial Apostle, codenamed 1, who was an Awakened Being above the current peak of Level 4 in Behemoth's realm, only a hair's breadth away from Level 5.
