"The situation is turning grim," one said.
"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.
...
Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...
The energy fluctuations caused by the 'Primordial Embryo' could not go unnoticed. Therefore, even in the Honey Pot World, Li Changzhou would not dare to use this skill if he was alone. Even a mischievous little deer could trample him to death.
Li Changzhou was on the verge of death and had to fall into this state in order to prevent death from gripping him.
Li Qianxia, Yang Qinglan, and Yaochi immediately cast spells to protect Li Changzhou; otherwise, the high temperature, toxic gases, lightning, storms, and other elements of Jupiter would have killed him instantly.
"Brother!" Li Qianxia exclaimed in worry and fear.
Even inside the 'Primordial Embryo', Li Changzhou's breathing gradually weakened, like an infant dying in its sleep.
"Qianxia!" Yang Qinglan called out.
Before she could speak, Li Qianxia had already used the Primordial Embryo Absorption technique.
The two are the closest people in the world, and the energy absorbed by the 'Primordial Embryo' has the same properties, which can be transferred between them.
Only after receiving Li Qianxia's energy did Li Changzhou finally stop his march towards death and begin to slowly recover.
Even so, there was something fortunate about it: the ancient god destroyed most of his body but left no curse behind.
It was so close, so very close. Without the vampire's bat-like characteristics, without the Primordial Embryo Absorption technique, without the protection of Yang Qinglan and Yaochi, and without Li Qianxia, who was connected to him by blood, Li Changzhou would have undoubtedly died.
“We succeeded,” Si said slowly. “This was our only chance of victory.”
Neither Yaochi nor Yang Qinglan paid her any attention, and Si didn't want their answers either.
A day later, Yang Qinglan, whose slender body was already swaying precariously due to the large amount of magical power she had consumed by driving the small jade cauldron and reversing the gravity of the South China Sea, was on the verge of collapse.
Yaochi looked at her and said, "Qinglan, go and recover your magic power first."
"Need not."
Yaochi raised an eyebrow: "You don't trust me?"
Yang Qinglan shook her head. She still had the strength to speak, but she lacked the spirit to do so.
"Since you trust me, what's the point of you forcing yourself like this? You should hurry up and recover so you can be of use sooner!"
Yang Qinglan remained silent for a moment, then withdrew her magic power. At the same time, Yaochi doubled her magic power output.
Having made her decision, Yang Qinglan didn't hesitate and immediately took out her Qi Hui to begin recovery.
Yaochi closed her eyes, her brain twitching. She was in a slightly better condition than Yang Qinglan, but how much better could she be now?
She took a deep breath, reopened her eyes, and looked at Li Changzhou, who had fallen into a deep sleep.
Of course, he is the most dangerous one.
Another half day passed. In that short time, neither Li Changzhou's injuries nor Yang Qinglan's magical power had recovered much. The stronger one's life force and the longer one's lifespan, the longer the recovery time would be.
Yang Qinglan opened her eyes, channeled her magic power again, reduced the pressure on Yaochi, and shielded Li Changzhou and Li Qianxia from the threat of Jupiter.
Half a day later, just as Yaochi could no longer hold on and was about to stop to recover her magic power, the already lightning-filled atmosphere of Jupiter suddenly burst out with intense light.
The three who were still awake instinctively looked over.
Main quest "The War Between Buddhism and Taoism" completed.
[Countdown to Return: 00:10:00]
The bright light disappeared, followed by a deafening roar of lightning.
Li Changzhou and Li Qianxia were forcibly awakened, not because of the lightning, but because the mission had ended and their abilities in the Value Game had been restored.
Safely interrupting "Primordial Breathing" is as simple as a human blowing away wisps of fur with their breath—it's something you can do anytime, unless you're dead.
Li Qianxia stepped forward to support Li Changzhou, who was still too weak to even fly.
"How is it?" he asked softly.
He already knew when the mission was over that the notification method of the Value Game was definitely not as simple as a "chance" natural phenomenon.
He asked how the Earth was doing.
"The will of the ancient god to descend has been extinguished, and Guanyin's magical power has been completely exhausted, leaving her in her final moments," Si replied.
The four fell silent.
The ancient god who almost killed Li Changzhou was still able to have his will extinguished by Guanyin, even if it was only a part of it—the channel of Ye'er was too narrow and provided too little energy, and the ancient god had no time to grow after his descent.

Such a powerful Guanyin, the Bodhisattva closest to the heavenly realm, actually exhausted all the magical power she had accumulated over countless years in order to erase this ancient god's will. Not only did she deplete her magical power, but she herself was also completely exhausted.
"How is Earth?" Yang Qinglan asked, pulling herself out of her thoughts.
Li Changzhou was originally concerned about Earth, but he was shocked by Si's intelligence.
The battle between Li Changzhou and Guanyin lasted exactly one minute. In that short minute, the entire South China Sea became a battlefield. If Guanyin hadn't withdrawn the seawater, the resulting tsunami would have brought devastating disaster to humanity.
So, what kind of damage will the battle between Guanyin and the ancient gods, which lasted for nearly two days, cause to the Earth?
The four of them prepared themselves mentally for the destruction of Earth.
"Don't worry," Si said. "In the possibilities I see, Guanyin has restrained the ancient gods and has not posed any danger to Earth, which is why I did not choose to destroy Earth."
"That's great!" Li Qianxia breathed a sigh of relief, but felt sad for Guanyin.
Such a virtuous Bodhisattva, even in death protecting living beings, did not receive a good outcome.
"But 72 percent of the energy bodies on Earth that are higher than human immortals were absorbed by the ancient gods, including Princess Iron Fan, who fought alongside us before."
