After Yan Duo finished talking about his experiences during this period of time, he asked about Xia Pingan's experiences. Xia Pingan told him about what had happened in Xinchuan and Yi Zhou during this period of time, as well as the purpose of his visit to Xinchuan.
"The food shortage is definitely not only happening in Xinchuan and Yi Zhou. The longer it drags on, the greater the harm caused by the food shortage. The people above will not be able to see it, so it's best to take advantage of the window of time when the permanent spatial rifts disappear to restore order everywhere and eliminate those monsters," Yan Duo said while rubbing his chin.
"When you came back from outside Yi Zhou, are the permanent spatial rifts outside the province also disappearing?" Xia Pingan asked.
"Yes!" Yan Duo nodded and said with a serious expression, "I've seen the scene of the permanent spatial rifts disappearing twice before, and it was indeed shocking. Perhaps there really are gods and wills beyond our imagination in this world. Otherwise, the golden tree shadows and human figures that appeared in the disappearing spatial rifts can't be explained at all. It can't be a natural phenomenon."
"Yes, compared to this mysterious universe, our current strength is still too insignificant …" Thinking of the scene of the spatial rifts disappearing, Xia Pingan still felt shocked.
If there was a Transcendent Being's will that closed the spatial rifts, did that mean that all the previous spatial invasions came from the will of another Transcendent Being?
Xia Pingan suddenly thought of the Demon Lord that the members of the Demon Eyes worshipped. In the past, he felt that the so-called Demon Lord should be a totem idol or the embodiment of some ideal belief that the Demon Eyes worshipped.
However, after seeing the spatial rifts being sealed with his own eyes, Xia Pingan's idea was shaken.
The monsters had come to this world, but the realm beads had also been planted on them, giving the people of this world the power to resist them.
The Demon Lord brought the spatial invasions, and another Transcendent Being that was on par with the Demon Lord was preventing the spatial invasions. The two sides were entangled in a contest. Was the so-called spatial invasions the continuation of the war between gods and demons in this world?
This conclusion was absurd, but it was the logical explanation that Xia Pingan could deduce in his heart.
"Don't be too emotional. This is a good thing. Maybe if we hold on for a few more days, the situation in the Country of Great Yan will change. Once there are no more spatial rifts, the Summoners will be able to recover. Those invading demonic creatures won't be able to hold on for long. On my way back, I saw that some Summoners had already regrouped with their troops and started to encircle those demonic creatures!"
"So fast?"
"Some summoner families have stockpiled a lot of rune bullets before. The troops are most afraid of demonic spirits. Once the troops have rune bullets to restrain the demonic spirits, like the red-haired demonic wolf mage we met today, he might be killed by heavy artillery. When I was in Donghu Province, I saw that some summoner families have begun to take control of the local situation. They gathered troops and personnel, issued rune bullets to the troops, and have already recovered some small cities."
Yan Duo said, licking his lips, his eyes sparkling. "Now is the time for us to show our skills and make a name for ourselves. If the two of us can kill most of these monsters in Xinchuan City, when the country is recovered, we will all be heroes of the country. The two of us can join forces in Xinchuan and do a good job together. How about it?"
"Now that you mention it, it's a bit interesting!" Xia Pingan thought about it and was greatly moved. His goal was the granary, but with the current situation in Xinchuan, it would be difficult for him to get close to the granary if he didn't kill a group of demonic wolves. Moreover, demonic wolves and demonic rats were different from spiders. If a demonic wolf mage were to discover the granary, he would have the ability to enter the granary and destroy it.
Therefore, he couldn't let those demonic wolves be idle. He had to take the initiative to attack and make those demonic wolves move. It would be best if he could lure them out of Xinchuan and kill as many as possible.
"What do you mean by 'a little interesting'? That's how it is. Didn't those nobles, generals, and ministers in history seize the opportunity to rise to power?"
"Aren't you afraid?"
"The spatial creatures invading everywhere are all low-level creatures. I have never heard of any high-level demonic creatures invading. Both of us are in the Second Realm. Even if we can't defeat them, escaping won't be a problem!"
Xia Pingan's eyes moved. "Speaking of escaping, I have an idea. If it succeeds, we can easily eliminate a large number of demonic wolves and demonic rats. We can also easily obtain a lot of Realm Pearls …"
"What idea?" Yan Duo asked with interest.
"I have a lot of powerful fuel-air bombs, thermobaric bombs, thermite bombs, and so on. What do you think? If we can find a place to set up a trap and lure those demonic wolves and demonic rats into the trap, then we can detonate the bombs in the trap. We should be able to easily wipe out a large number of demonic beasts. The power of air-dropped thermobaric bombs and fuel-air bombs are not comparable to that of individual fuel-air bombs."
Yan Duo suddenly became excited and rubbed his hands. "How many of those big guys do you have now?"
"Tens of thousands of tons. Blowing up half of Xinchuan City shouldn't be a problem!"
Yan Duo was shocked. "Damn, how big is your spatial warehouse? Can you store so much?"
"Hehe, as long as it's enough!"
"This idea is definitely feasible. Let's properly plan it out. Let's do a big job in Xinchuan City!"
The two of them began to seriously discuss, such as where to best ambush, what method to use to lure those demonic creatures, and so on.
This discussion lasted for more than an hour.
The two of them discussed and decided to wait until tomorrow to take action. They would first find a place to set up a bomb trap and then lure the demonic beasts.
The two of them had the curse mark of the demonic wolf clan on them. If they wanted to lure the demonic beasts, there were many ways to do so without appearing too deliberate.
When the discussion was about done, Xia Pingan took out the Realm Pearl he obtained today and looked at it.
That Realm Pearl flashed with a layer of faint white light. Inside the white light, four divine runes were faintly discernible – Waiting for Rabbits.
What a coincidence. The two of them were just discussing how to set up a trap and now the Realm Pearl in their hands was actually this.
"Ah, this is the Realm Pearl you obtained!" Yan Duo glanced at the divine runes on the Realm Pearl in Xia Pingan's hand and shook his head in disappointment, "This is a black box Realm Pearl. I've never heard of anyone fusing with this Realm Pearl. However, I've never heard of anyone dying while fusing with this Realm Pearl. This Realm Pearl isn't very dangerous. You can try it here. I'll protect you. It shouldn't take long!"
Xia Pingan didn't explain and directly nodded. He turned the ring on his finger, pricked his finger, and dripped two drops of blood onto the Realm Pearl. In just a moment, Xia Pingan's body was surrounded by a pure white cocoon of light.
…
Xia Pingan opened his eyes and found himself holding a hoe and digging in the field. He was wearing a short shirt made of coarse hemp.
There were more than 20 mu of land in front of him and an old tree stump was left on the ground.
When Xia Pingan was looking at the old tree stump, a rabbit suddenly darted out of the grasses in the distance and hit the tree stump. After kicking its legs, it died.
Xia Pingan revealed a smile. 'Just as I expected.'
The reason why others couldn't fuse with this Realm Pearl successfully was that those who came in here had already gone to do various things. They would never think that they only needed to guard this old tree stump.
'This should be the easiest Realm Pearl to fuse with.'
…
Inside the cave, Yan Duo saw that Xia Pingan was fusing with the Realm Pearl and was enveloped by the light cocoon. Only then did he sneakily take out the Realm Pearl and take a look.
There were some divine runes on the Realm Pearl — — Xu Dao Lu Shipbuilding.
Yan Duo didn't recognize the divine runes on the Realm Pearl. However, he knew that this Realm Pearl was a rare item for summoning a Realm Pearl. If he fused with this Realm Pearl, he could summon a ship at a critical moment.
This Realm Pearl was very rare and couldn't be found easily. He had taken a look at it before. Therefore, he generously used this Realm Pearl to cancel Xia Pingan's "debt" …
When Yan Duo touched the Realm Pearl, the cocoon of light on Xia Pingan shattered in a few minutes.
Yan Duo hurriedly put away the Realm Pearl in his hand.
"Cough cough, it doesn't matter even if you failed …" Yan Duo comforted him.
"Hmm, I should have succeeded!" Xia Pingan touched his nose and smiled.
"What?" Yan Duo thought he heard wrong. "Succeeded? You said you fused with that black-box Realm Pearl?"
"Yes, I got 10 points of divine power and a small spell!"
"What spell?"
"Do you want to eat fresh roasted meat?"
"Yes, do you have it?"
"Wait a minute!" As Xia Pingan spoke, he closed his eyes for a moment. Suddenly, he pointed at a rock not far away from them. A yellow dot of light flew out from Xia Pingan's finger and entered the rock.
"That's it?" Yan Duo blinked. "Where's the meat?"
"Wait a minute …"
The two waited patiently for five or six minutes. Just when Yan Duo was about to lose his patience and thought that Xia Pingan was joking with him, there was a sudden movement outside the cave. A shadow flashed and a pheasant rushed in. It hit the rock head on and fell to the ground.
Half a minute later, another gray rabbit rushed in and slammed its head into the rock.
Looking at the two prey that rushed into the cave and hit the rock head, Yan Duo was dumbfounded. "This … this is the spell?"
"Yes, this is a small spell for hunting. It consumes at least one point of divine power and can attract some prey in the surroundings!"
"With such a spell, wouldn't we never have to worry about starving?" Yan Duo was incomparably envious. The practicality of such a spell was too strong. If one wanted to catch any prey, the prey would run over on its own. Just now, he felt that the summoning bead he obtained was not bad. However, compared to the spell in front of Xia Pingan's eyes, that bead didn't seem as good.
Xia Pingan was too abnormal. No wonder he had advanced to the second elemental realm in such a short time. This should be the second black-box Realm Pearl he had fused with. Yan Duo had never seen a summoner fuse with a Realm Pearl so easily.
Yan Duo was already seriously considering whether to hug Xia Pingan's thigh. Xia Pingan's future achievements would definitely be amazing …
