Fang Cai's footsteps paused. In a short moment, she quickly made a decision and said, "Mister Tao, please come with us."
Zhang Yu followed her back to the flying boat. Fang Cai made a simple hand gesture. The soldiers standing there looked at each other and silently retreated. However, they still stared at Zhang Yu with caution.
Fang Cai led Zhang Yu quickly to a soldier lying on a soft stretcher. Even though the body was covered in armor, it was obvious that this was a well-built man.
"Mister Tao, this is our captain. If possible, please help save him. Please!" Solemnly, she clasped her fists towards Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu nodded. He took a few steps forward and approached the man. The soldiers who were scattered outside faintly formed a circle around him, as if guarding against him.
He didn't care about this. He maintained a certain distance as he sized up the man lying on the ground.
Just now, he had only glanced at him from afar. Due to the obstruction of spiritual energy, he didn't look too carefully. Now that he looked, he found that there was a large scratch on this person's waist. He should have been cut in half at the waist, but was pieced back together by some method.
He glanced at the large scratch on the flying boat and guessed how this wound came about.
There was a silver liquid in the wound. It should have been used to piece the body back together.
This person's body didn't have anything special. It was even worse than the normal Tianxia people he had seen before. However, the outer armor he wore had spiritual energy.
Originally, after the body was pieced back together, this person should have been able to repair himself by relying on the spiritual energy of the outer armor. However, perhaps the situation was too urgent and he didn't check carefully. Some weak spiritual energy that came along with the attack was left inside the body.
If this person still retained his consciousness, he could rely on his own efforts to expel the foreign force. However, this person fell into a coma. Even though the spiritual energy of the outer armor was still firmly protecting him, there was no way to expel the foreign force. This caused the wound to be unable to heal and the injury to worsen.
After looking, he raised his head.
Fang Cai asked nervously, "Mr. Tao, how is it?"
Zhang Yu told her what he had seen.
Fang Cai looked to the side. A person who she could tell was one of the reinforcement soldiers let out a regretful sound. He smacked his own head and said, "That should be the case. It's all my fault. I didn't take a closer look beforehand. It's all my fault …"
Fang Cai immediately interrupted him and said, "Alright, there's no need to say these words. The most important thing now is to save He Wei."
The soldier said awkwardly, "He Wei is covered by the outer armor. In order to get rid of the remaining spirituality, we have to cut open the outer armor first. However, He Wei might not be able to maintain his life force this way."
Fang Cai turned to look at Zhang Yu and asked with a hint of hope, "Mr. Tao, do you have a solution?"
Zhang Yu said, "The best way is to wake this person up and let him use his own strength to repel this strange force."
The soldier hurriedly said, "No! He Wei's injuries are so serious and he can't focus. If he makes a mistake or faints again, the consequences will be unimaginable. "
Zhang Yu said, "I will try to help him. After this, I can use my mana to maintain his life force and delay it for three days."
Fang Cai's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Three days is enough. We have sent a message to Xi Yue. Someone will come to save us soon." She said decisively, "Mr. Tao, let's use your method."
The reinforcement soldier wanted to say something but stopped.
Zhang Yu nodded. He remained standing at the same spot and pointed downwards. Under everyone's gaze, a ball of light floated out and enveloped the body of the man on the ground. After a while, he slowly woke up.
Fang Cai's eyes were filled with joy. As if afraid of waking something up, she walked over with light steps and whispered, "He Wei."
The man looked very weak but still joked, "How can you be a leader in the future with such a soft voice?"
Fang Cai couldn't help but laugh but felt that it wasn't a good time to laugh. She immediately bit her lower lip and said, "Yes, I will be louder next time."
The man's expression turned serious. "How is the situation?"
Fang Cai quickly explained the situation and also told him about Zhang Yu's help. The man said, "I know. Remember not to delay the mission because of me. Also, help me thank that Mr. Tao. I owe him a favor. "
Fang Cai said, "Okay, okay. He Wei, you are still injured. Don't say anymore."
The man listened to her advice and focused on expelling his spiritual energy.
Fang Cai's nervousness was slightly relieved. She stood up and came to Zhang Yu's side. She sincerely thanked him, "Mr. Tao, thank you."
Zhang Yu said, "It's no problem."
Fang Cai thought for a while. "Mr. Tao, where are you going?"
Zhang Yu looked at her and said, "Fang Wei, you want me to go with you?"
Fang Cai was a little embarrassed. "Mr. Tao, it is a little troublesome to explain. But since you have seen us, we cannot let you leave like this. I hope Mr. Tao can understand." Solemnly, she said, "No matter what, Mr. Tao, please believe us. We will not do anything to our comrades."
Zhang Yu guessed that these people had come deep into the desert for some special mission. He did not care about the specifics but through these people, he might be able to quickly understand the situation of this world. Therefore, he nodded. "I will go with you."
Seeing him agree, Fang Cai sighed in relief. Solemnly, she said, "Mr. Tao, thank you for your understanding."
Fang Cai's timing was very accurate. After waiting for a day, a huge flying boat appeared in the sky. It was originally hidden in the atmosphere, but it gradually revealed itself when it came close. Even Fang Cai and the soldiers could not detect any movement in advance.
Zhang Yu, Fang Cai and the others boarded the flying boat and left this region.
After they left, two people appeared in the desert. They were dressed in cloaks that covered their heads and faces. However, there was a spiritual glow that was like a light blue flame on their bodies.
They came to the corpse of the long worm that was killed. One of them waved his hand that was glowing with spiritual light. The brain of the long worm was split open. It was obvious that the insides were already a mess.
Before this thing was killed, it was already dead.
One of them said, "Did you see what method was used?"
The other said, "I can only see that it was the use of mana. There were no traces of Abhijna."
The one who spoke first said, "Write it down and report it as it is."
The other one took out a crystal plate and recorded the matter with a crystal pen. Under the illumination of the sunlight, the words on the plate slowly disappeared, as if they were being transmitted to a certain place.
After doing this, the two of them disappeared together.
Ten days later.
Following the precise and clear sound of the bell, the light of the clear day shone on the glazed wall of a building.
After a night of meditation, Zhang Yu got up from his seat and came to the window. Sensing his arrival, the light green curtain grew legs and moved to the side. After the green grass on the windowsill was exposed to the sunlight, it slowly stretched its body that had been curled up for the night and emitted a clean smell of grass.
He raised his head. The light of the Sun of Creation in the sky shone down without any cover, providing a steady stream of spiritual power to many things on the ground.
As far as the eye could see, there were blue-black oval-shaped buildings. They were orderly but not too rigid. They maintained their height and showed a unique sense of rhythm. With the movement of one's gaze and footsteps, the reflection of light jumped on them like musical notes.
Above the buildings, there were countless beautiful curves in the sky. From time to time, there would be flashes of light. Those were the knuckle-like metal boats that passed through.
Everything was a creation.
Three days ago, he followed the flying boat to this place. Then, he was arranged to stay here. Through the books brought by Fang Cai and some other channels, he was able to understand some of the situation in this world.
This world was very similar to the past of Tianxia. It also went through the Primordial Era of the Other Species. Then, there was the appearance of the cultivators. Then, there was the emergence of the cultivators. Then, there was the rise of the cultivators' sects. This stage was equivalent to the Ancient Xia Era.
Then, there was the stage of the sects attacking each other. This was the corresponding Ancient Xia Era. The embryonic form of the mixing of different Daos had gradually appeared. If there were no accidents, the end of the merger of sects would be the later Tianxia.
However, at this point in the process of this world, there was a huge turn. It seemed that because of the influence of an extremely similar turbid tide, the originally flourishing Daoist teachings suddenly encountered a huge obstacle. It seemed that in a single night, cultivation had become extremely difficult.
Then, an even greater blow came.
Even though this world was vast and there were many stars, cultivators could easily travel thousands of miles. They even had the means to communicate with each other, so long distance was not an obstacle. However, after this Turbid Tide, the Dao that was originally on the rise declined greatly. The various sects that were originally close to each other also broke off their ties with each other. Each of the sects either hurriedly defended themselves or retreated to outer space.
However, the retreat of the cultivators left a large empty region in the world. After hundreds of years, the creation of the heavens gradually prospered in the world because of this.
The origin of the creation could no longer be verified. However, people later deduced that the earliest batch of craftsmen might be the cultivators' furnace boys and assistants. There were also some who were the sect's servants.
In a short span of hundreds of years, the population of the Underground Continent multiplied and expanded. The creation skills improved tremendously. These people called themselves the Hao Clan. They piled up an even more magnificent tower on the foundation of their predecessors' creation.
However, at this moment, they also came into conflict with the cultivators. In the beginning, the creation that was like a vast ocean drowned out the sects that were like isolated islands.
However, the cultivation sects that originally covered the world and the various stars still had great strength remaining. In the beginning, the sects were destroyed one by one. However, later on, they reacted. Moreover, many sects joined forces to resist the Hao Clan.
At this moment, the Hao Clan's influence had also expanded to a limit. Therefore, from then on, two opposing forces were formed. Until now, the victor had not been decided.
After Zhang Yu saw this, he began to ponder. The Hao Clan could destroy so many sects and continue until now. It was obvious that they also had a higher level of power that could resist the cultivators. Then, where would that "upper self" be? Was it here with the Hao Clan, or in some sect outside the realm?
However, he understood that these things that he saw should only be what the Hao Clan was willing to show to the world. There should be something deeper that they had not revealed. Therefore, he did not need to leave this place in a hurry. He could stay within the Hao Clan and borrow the strength of these people to slowly search for the answer.
