The formation has indeed weakened.

Jiang Zhi stood at the top of the space, her gaze sweeping across a cold and indifferent landscape.

Qiu Gu was also taken into her space. Standing with Wan Fu, the crystals flashed into the array eye like snowflakes, turning into specks of light before disappearing.

"Mom, what if we fail..." Wanfu murmured.

"To be buried with the world," Jiang Zhi said calmly.

The dragon made a whooshing sound, and the moment the formation was activated, its whiskers curled up Jiang Zhi's hand. Before she could react, the entire dragon carried her into the center of the formation.

"Mom!" Wanfu jumped down too, that damned stinky dragon.

At this moment, those who could see the stars opened their mouths wide in astonishment at the changes in the constellations.

"Look, the constellations have changed, they're moving!"

"My God, I can't believe it, they're converging in one direction."

"Send a message back to base immediately, monitor the changes in real time, and record everything," said Huo Xi, the deputy commander in charge of the plan, solemnly.

Zhou Renchang received the news immediately and relayed it to every corner of the base. The whole world was unusually quiet today. Even the mutated beasts seemed to sense something was amiss and fell silent, ceasing their attacks on the base.

The large screen displayed real-time messages and images transmitted from the front lines.

Everyone was on tenterhooks because of this.

Jiang Zhi was completely unable to move and could only let the dragon drag her along.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Zhi asked angrily.

Qiu Gu said, "Your essence and blood have long permeated every part of this formation. When I first saw you, I knew that you were the one who set me free. I waited for millions of years for this opportunity, and you just happened to continue along this path. Naturally, I would not miss this opportunity. What kind of beast is there to suppress? There is only me in the entire formation."

Jiang Zhi's face was almost frozen.

The dragon deceived her from beginning to end; from the moment she entered the cave and encountered it, she was drawn into an elaborate trap.

"What exactly are you trying to do?" Jiang Zhi questioned. "This formation and the senior's small seal script were both fabricated by you. What is your purpose?"

Her intuition told her that there was no simple matter as wanting freedom.

The dragon had long known about the changes in the outside world; it couldn't possibly be heading towards the apocalypse. It must have some other purpose. Jiang Zhi couldn't imagine what grudges this dragon could still hold after such a long period of time.

If it's for revenge, then this is too much of a grudge-holding behavior.

She couldn't help but doubt the authenticity of the space. Could it be that the inherited memories she received were also fake?

“That guy isn’t something I made up. How about we make a deal?” Qiu Gu raised an eyebrow, but didn’t slow down.

Jiang Zhi's eyes were filled with the image of the inside of the formation, which was composed of countless crystals and contained powerful, indescribable energy.

It is this energy that builds a bridge among the fragments of the array's core.

At this moment, Jiang Zhi had a general idea of ​​the formation's structure and understood its true operating principle.

"Speak."

Having received a response, Qiu Gu then said, "After this formation was successfully built, your predecessor was just like you, except he wasn't as lucky. He died in the formation and sealed the energy he carried—enough to destroy the world and shake its very foundation—within it. Once someone breaks through the barrier and opens it, it will trigger the formation's operation, causing a separation of space and time. I was lured in by them. Over the years, I have long since become part of the formation. I want to form a contract with you. Your goal is to protect the ants in your world and save their lives, while my requirement is that you leave your original world and come with me into my world."

Jiang Zhi was stunned.

"What do you mean?"

She's been reborn, and now she's being asked to travel through time?

We agreed it wouldn't be fantastical, but it's turned fantastical again, isn't it?

"You have no choice but to either die with me in this battle or fight for that sliver of hope." As Qiu Gu spoke, he threw Jiang Zhi onto his back and flew forward with all his might. Wan Fu, who was behind him, barely managed to touch Qiu Gu's tail, but before he could grab it, he was thrown to Jiang Zhi's side.

At this moment, a drop of blood essence flew out from between Qiu Gu's eyebrows and landed directly on Jiang Zhi's left collarbone.

She felt as if she had been shot, and enduring the pain, Jiang Zhi gritted her teeth and said, "You're ruthless!"

Despite being threatened, Qiu Gu also revealed a message: once the formation is activated, the world will be separated, and Blue Star will return to its original state.

Once the climate returns to normal, those mutated beasts will be no match for humanity's small but nascent efforts.

Human beings may be small, but they are not something that any behemoth can shake.

With that, Jiang Zhi was relieved.

Now she's been seized by this evil dragon and can't be free. But fortunes change, and as long as she doesn't die, one day she'll kill it with her own hands!

"Look! The stars have converged to form the shape of a dragon. It's truly a blessing from heaven for China!"

"It is our guardian beast, the dragon. We are all descendants of the dragon."

"No, there's one more, one more star. Did you see it? There's an extra one on the dragon's back. It looks so out of place."

The person next to the formation suddenly felt a suction force and quickly pulled on the rope. The person holding the rope not far away immediately pulled it back, dragging the person away.

"Something was sucking me in from the center of the formation, but thankfully I managed to get out in time." The woman was drenched in sweat. She had a premonition that if she had been sucked in, she would have been torn to pieces.

Just as the dragon took shape, the light at the core of the formation suddenly went out, and before ten breaths had passed, the underwater formation had vanished.
