Dingwei Floating Island.
Ding Jingshan and the White Rajah were naturally the first to sense the sudden displacement of the entire bewildering world.
However, their reactions were completely different.
"Looks like fate is on the side of us humans." Ding Jingshan grinned. "Come, come, come. The bewildering world has shifted, and the surrounding situation is uncertain. To prevent any accidents, please come to the island for a chat, White Rajah!"
The human cultivators on the island shouted in unison, "White Rajah, please come to the island!"
In the previous battle, the White Rajah had personally led the Sea Race army to charge onto the floating island three times, but Ding Jingshan had chased him out all three times.
The suppression of the rules of the floating island on the Sea Race was the greatest reliance of the island's defense.
However, with the continuous attacks of the Sea Race, the floating island itself was constantly being "modified". When its unique rules disappeared, the entire floating island would fall into the enemy's hands.
At this moment, Ding Jingshan was brimming with confidence and invited the White Rajah to attack again.
The White Rajah stood outside the island and looked at Dingwei Floating Island, which had already been breached and was now covered in smoke. This island was practically a piece of fat meat in his mouth. If he had another hour, he would definitely be able to devour it, but …
In the end, he only spat out two words gloomily, "Retreat!"
As for the reason for the retreat, it was actually already in Ding Jingshan's words — "The bewildering world has shifted, and the surrounding situation is uncertain".
Even the White Rajah and Ding Jingshan didn't know how many districts were connected to Ding Wei's district and where they were located.
Attacking the floating island itself meant fighting under a suppressed situation, and it was difficult to succeed in one go. At this moment, the five nests were also empty of troops.
If they happened to be close to an area where the humans had an advantage and the other party sent out a large army to take advantage of the situation, the losses would outweigh the gains. It was even very likely that the humans would launch a pincer attack and wipe out the White Rajah's entire army.
The White Rajah could not take such a risk. After Jiang Wang escaped, there was not much meaning in attacking Dingwei Floating Island. Therefore, he decisively ordered the retreat, completely unaffected by his emotions.
In fact, in the bewildering world, whether it was the humans or the Sea Race, they had always tacitly agreed to defend their headquarters when the bewildering world shifted. Only when there was no need to worry about the rear would there be expansion and exploration.
This was not a rule, but a lesson learned through countless blood and tears. Both the human race and the sea race had suffered greatly in this regard.
The White Rajah stood guard outside the floating island. When they came, he was the vanguard. When they retreated, he was the rearguard.
Regardless of his standpoint, he was indeed a qualified Duke.
Even Ding Jingshan couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief in his heart when he saw the dense Oceanic Clan's army retreat.
His eyes were still fixed on the White Rajah, maintaining his vigilance.
He had already decided in his heart that after this battle, no matter what, he would find a way to build a second floating island.
After the army retreated, the human cultivators on Dingwei Island still did not relax. The White Rajah finally gave up his final attack and turned to leave.
Although he had the intention of luring the snake out of its hole again, Ding Jingshan was still very steady when he was at his weakest.
Of course, there was not the slightest bit of regret on his face.
"Has Yu Siqing caught anyone?" he asked casually.
After a while, he finally got an answer. "Yu Shuai … chased after the target and went to another area."
The White Rajah paused and didn't say anything in the end.
With Yu Siqing's identity, abilities, and strength, he really shouldn't have taken the risk to go to another area without knowing anything. But on the other hand, it was his order to capture Jiang Wang, and Yu Siqing was just faithfully carrying out the order.
…
…
You still owe me a Mirage King Pearl. Don't you want me to owe you more … This is not how you repay a debt.
With this kind of melancholy in his heart, Jiang Wang appeared in a "strange" area.
The reason why it was strange was precisely because this place was too normal!
There was a sky above, and fertile soil below. Flowers bloomed everywhere, and green grass was like a carpet.
A warm sun could be seen in the sky, and forests and mountains could be seen in the distance.
The feeling of time being in chaos completely disappeared here.
This place was simply the real world!
Moreover, it was peaceful, and there were no disputes.
It was precisely this kind of "normalcy" that appeared particularly strange in a bewildering world.
But Jiang Wang didn't have time to think too much, because Yu Siqing had already appeared behind him.
At this time, Yu Siqing had already retracted his Sea Lord True Form, and he looked very miserable.
Two fingers on his right hand were broken, and his left leg was broken at the knee. He appeared alone behind Jiang Wang, and from his appearance alone, he definitely didn't look like a powerful pursuer.
He and Jiang Wang arrived in this area at the same time. The moment he landed, his expression changed drastically.
Because this area was very close to the real world, it was naturally normal for Jiang Wang, but to him, it was a suppression!
How could he, who had been in the bewildering world for a long time, not know? He took the risk to chase after Jiang Wang and took a gamble, but in the end, he drew the worst of the lot!
This was one of the few areas in the entire bewildering world that was completely occupied by the human race!
Before he could determine which area this was, Jiang Wang's sword was already coming at him.
Although Jiang Wang didn't know what area this was, his perception of this area was very real.
In his opinion, this was a large floating island in the bewildering world, and Yu Siqing had landed here with him. His battle prowess wasn't affected, but as a member of the sea race, his opponent was suppressed by the rules.
Although he had fought continuously and consumed a lot of energy, his opponent had also continuously used his Sea Lord True Form. In addition, his limbs were still intact, while his opponent had lost two fingers and a leg in the border river.
Previously, he wasn't a match for him, but now, he was a match for him!
"No matter how good your luck is, it can't change your weakness!" Yu Siqing clawed back, and through the air, he trapped the sword in a small space.
Jiang Wang twisted his sword, and around the sword, sword qi exploded in a spiral shape, forcing Yu Siqing to let go.
Then, he took advantage of the momentum and slashed diagonally, aiming at his opponent's remaining right leg.
This strike was a bit dangerous, and Yu Siqing was furious. "Even with a broken leg, I can still kill you!"
He didn't dodge, but instead formed a claw with his fingers, and clawed forward.
This claw tore through the air, but Jiang Wang, who had retracted his sword to dodge, had five bloody wounds on his left arm, so deep that his bones could be seen.
Yu Siqing's innate ability was truly terrifying, and he had used it repeatedly today, yet he still had energy left. In terms of ability development, he also surpassed Jiang Wang.
However, when this claw landed, there was no joy on Yu Siqing's face, and no fear on Jiang Wang's face.
This was because the harvest of this claw was far from what he had expected!
He had originally wanted to dig out Jiang Wang's heart, but in the end, he only injured his left arm.
Under the suppression of the laws in this area, his strength had dropped from high-level commander-level to mid-level at least. If he was a level higher than Jiang Wang before, he could only be considered to be on par with him now.
And at the same level, who had Jiang Wang feared?
Yu Siqing's ability involved the laws of space, so it could ignore distance and was impossible to guard against.
But just now, Jiang Wang had predicted where it would land and dodged in advance.
He couldn't dodge Yu Siqing's ability, but he could determine where Yu Siqing's attack would land.
In that exchange, although he couldn't completely avoid it, he had greatly reduced the threat of this ability. And the longer he fought with Yu Siqing, the more accurate this prediction would be.
"This time, it might be your turn to escape!"
As Jiang Wang spoke, he pressed forward with his left hand, and the Eight Notes Burning Sea roared out again.
He stepped on the fire and followed closely with his sword in hand.
Yu Siqing gritted his teeth and transformed into the Sea Lord form again. He flapped his wings and dodged far away before the Eight Notes Burning Sea spread out.
This time, he wasn't willing to fight head-on to save time.
But the most important problem was —
This was an area completely occupied by humans. The longer he was entangled in front of the Realm River, the more likely it was that he would be captured by the human forces here.
But the exchange just now had already proved that he couldn't quickly finish off Jiang Wang again.
Even though he was suppressed by the laws here, in terms of speed, he far surpassed Jiang Wang. But he couldn't directly escape far away! For the same reason, the further away he was from the Realm River, the more dangerous it was.
At the same time, he didn't have a crystal bridge on him, so he couldn't turn back and cross the river.
If Jiang Wang had been in a desperate situation before, then at this moment, he actually had a taste of Jiang Wang's feelings!

ps:
"If one can't cross the river, one can cross the river. If one dies while crossing the river, what can one do about it? "— Cai Yong's" Zither Practice — Konghou Yin "
There were many versions of the last two sentences, such as "If one dies while falling into the river, what can one do about it?" and "If one dies while falling into the river, what can one do about it?"
This was because the ancient preservation methods were poor, and mistakes were inevitable during the copying. The more pirated versions there were, the more complicated they were. But all that was passed down were ancient copies, and in the end, no one knew which one was authentic. Sometimes, it was really regrettable to lose the original meaning.
This showed the importance of authentic copies.
Here, I call on everyone to read the authentic version of the "Red Heart Survey" on Qidian Chinese Network.
There will be no more regrets of missing words or even being lost in the "Zither Practice"!
(The authentic version is really good now. Even students who don't have money to read it can read it for free by clicking on the advertisement. You can also interact and discuss the plot with everyone in this chapter.)
Wouldn't it be great?
