Three days later, on the fourth day of the first month, in the Endless Sea.
Prince Qi once again arrived at the bottom of the sea. It had been twenty days since Lu An had entered the eye of the formation to cultivate. This time had already surpassed the record for the longest time spent by her clansmen, and it seemed like it would continue to extend.
For twenty days, Lu An sat motionless in the eye of the formation. His entire body seemed to have been petrified, or perhaps he was a statue that had existed here since ancient times.
Compared to the crazed state of her clansmen before, Lu An's current state was frighteningly stable. This was not an act. Lu An's breathing was extremely stable, and his body did not tremble in the slightest. Could it be that in this space, he did not feel the fear of time and space? Could it be that he did not feel the pressure of being trapped here for the rest of his life?
There was pressure. Of course, Lu An was under pressure. However, Lu An was never someone who would be crushed by pressure. Pressure would only become the motivation for him to risk his life. Therefore, the greater the pressure, the calmer he would be.
As for time and space, Lu An was currently pondering over these two questions while he was in the midst of cultivation.
Lu An had always believed that as long as he entered the eighth level of Heavenly Master, he would be able to make a qualitative breakthrough in the use of the power of space. He would then be able to use it as one of his main battle strengths, and not a weak one. It was precisely because of this that Lu An was able to use 'spirit' and 'space' as a breakthrough point. In addition to the energy from the surrounding sea that constantly swept in, it gave him more and more strength to break through to the eighth level of Heavenly Master.
In reality, the pressure he gave himself was greater than what others imagined. Ordinary breakthroughs were not his goal. If he did not use 'spirit' and 'space' to break through, then it would be equivalent to giving up on these two abilities as an eighth level Heavenly Master. If he wanted to fight against the Chu and Jiang clans, then the limit of his attributes alone would not be enough. Fu Yu did not allow him to use the energy of death, and he also could not use immortal energy. Otherwise, it would harm Sengoku. Therefore, he focused on researching the power of space, which became his trump card in the battle against the Hachiko clan.
However, Lu An wasn't a god. He had lost track of time here. He didn't know how long he had been here. Most of the time, he felt like he had been here for a long time, even a month or two. Sometimes, he wondered if he had only been here for a day or two. What he did was to make himself lose track of time so that he could feel better.
However, Lu An had never forgotten about the chaos in the world. He was very worried about the current situation of the Ice Fire League, but he also knew that he couldn't help at all even if he went back. Only after becoming a Level Eight Celestial Master could he really be useful to the Ice Fire League.
On the other side, in the Ice Fire Island of the Four Southern Seas.
After five days of war, more than one-tenth of the countries and cities in the Eight Ancient Continents had fallen into chaos. The stack of documents on Liu Yi's desk was already very high, but fortunately, Kong Yan and Princess Yan Yi helped her organize them. According to her requirements, they sorted out the important information, which saved her a lot of time. She had to predict the next course of action of the thirty-one sects. The one who could see further in the war would be the one who could win the war.
At this moment, Liu Yi was looking at the documents in her hand. According to the information sent by the spies of the alliances on the sea, the chaos in the Eight Ancient Continents had spread to the entire Deep Sea Alliance. Although they didn't know the existence of the Hachiko clan, they knew that the Four Great Empires used to be managed by the thirty-one sects. Today, the thirty-one sects had destroyed the Four Great Empires, occupied the continent, and even killed each other. This gave them a big chance!
Most of the Celestial Masters above Level Six who had fled to the sea had offended the people of the Four Great Empires. A small number of them had offended the sects. However, the Four Great Empires had been destroyed, and the sects were killing each other. They didn't have time to care about them. The members of the Deep Sea Alliance immediately became restless. Although they didn't know what had happened, many bold alliances had returned to the Eight Ancient Continents to get a share of the profits!
After all, how many Celestial Masters were willing to live on the sea? The Eight Ancient Continents were so good. Who didn't want to come back?
Immediately, the members of the Deep Sea Alliance on the sea swarmed to the Eight Ancient Continents. Although the overall competence of these alliances was much weaker than the sects, the sects had to pay attention to their great number. Unless the Level Nine Celestial Masters came personally, the Level Eight Celestial Masters couldn't deal with the forces of the Deep Sea Alliance.
More and more forces entered the Eight Ancient Continents. However, the Eight Ancient Continents were too big. It would take a long time to spread the flames of war everywhere. It wasn't something that could be done in one or two months.
At this moment, the Ice and Fire Union had occupied thirty-four middle-sized countries and sixty-eight small countries. Altogether, they had more than one hundred countries. However, these countries were just a small area in the entire Eight Ancient Continents. Moreover, the twenty strongholds were separated, which made the area smaller.
In fact, the twenty areas that the Ice and Fire Union had occupied weren't rich in resources. Quite the contrary, they were barren. However, it was Liu Yi's plan. The sects and the Deep Sea Alliance wouldn't attack here. She wanted to let the sects and the Deep Sea Alliance kill each other. After the enemy's forces had been worn down to a certain extent, they would take action.
At this moment, only Liu Yi and Princess Yan Yi were in the hall. The women of the other families had gone to the Eight Ancient Continents to check the situation of the strongholds. Liu Yi and Princess Yan Yi were sorting out the information.
However, at this moment, a guard's voice came from the door. He said respectfully, "Hegemon, the Young Master of the Fire Mountain Sect, Xu Wei, wants to see you!"
Liu Yi was bewildered. She turned to look at Princess Yan Yi. Princess Yan Yi was also surprised. Of course, she knew Xu Wei's feelings for her.
"If you don't like him, you can leave," said Liu Yi.
Princess Yan Yi frowned. She pondered for a while and then shook her head. "I'm working for you. It's improper to hide from him every time. It's okay to see him."
Liu Yi nodded and said to the guard, "Let him in."
"Yes!" said the guard.
Soon, Xu Wei appeared in front of the door of the hall. When he saw Princess Yan Yi in the hall, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. His worried face immediately brightened up and he quickly entered the hall.
However, Xu Wei wasn't a person who didn't know the rules. He held back his longing and first greeted Liu Yi, "Hegemon Liu."
Liu Yi nodded slightly.
After greeting, Xu Wei immediately looked at Princess Yan Yi and said happily and anxiously, "Yan Yi, how … have you been recently?"
Xu Wei naturally knew what happened in the Southern Cloud Empire's royal family. He didn't know if Yan Yi knew, so he was very worried.
Princess Yan Yi looked at Xu Wei. She knew that this man liked her very much. She nodded and said, "I know what I should know. You don't need to worry. I'm fine here."
Looking at Yan Yi's appearance, Xu Wei was a little relieved. In fact, he first went to Qing Lin Island to find Yan Yi. After he found that Yan Yi wasn't there, he came here. Thinking of this, Xu Wei suddenly realized something. He asked Yan Yi, "You joined the Ice Fire Union?"
"Yes," Princess Yan Yi said softly.
Hearing this, Xu Wei immediately became worried. Although Qing Lin Island also belonged to the Ice Fire Union, the degree of security there was completely different. Just when Xu Wei was worried about what to say, Princess Yan Yi interrupted him.
"Do you have something to talk about?" Princess Yan Yi said seriously, "If not, I still have things to do with the Hegemon. I don't have time for other things."
"..."
Xu Wei was shocked. Princess Yan Yi's attitude towards him hadn't changed. Sometimes, he was very distressed. As a Young Master of a sect, he had to be so humble to a woman outside the sect. However, he couldn't help it. He just couldn't control himself.
Thinking for a while, Xu Wei immediately turned to Liu Yi and said, "Hegemon Liu, I will send someone to send you the information about the entire Eight Ancient Continents as soon as possible."
Liu Yi was bewildered. The sect must have gotten more information from the Eight Ancient Continents than she had investigated. She smiled and said, "I won't refuse Young Master Xu's kindness. Thank you."
"No need to thank me. I just hope that Hegemon Liu can take care of Yan Yi's safety. Don't let her do anything that could endanger her life," Xu Wei said seriously.
Liu Yi turned to look at Yan Yi and then at Xu Wei. "Okay."
Yan Yi was startled. She hurried to say, "Hegemon..."
"It's okay. There are so many people going out to do things. You're just one more." Liu Yi smiled and then looked at Xu Wei. "I hope Young Master Xu can send the information to me as soon as possible."
Xu Wei took a deep breath and nodded. "Okay!"
