At this time, Yang Hongyan and the others were not in any danger, and there were no biological auras above level ten within a radius of tens of kilometers, so Yang Shen was not worried about their safety.
With that thought in mind, he descended from the clouds and flew toward the location of the old man.
...
In the dense forest, the old man Zhu Rong used a large knife as a cane. Although his steps were slow, each step was steady, and the torrential rain seemed to have no effect on him at all.
When the suspected immortal-grade cultivation technique was first revealed, Zhu Rong rushed to the vicinity of the mutated poplar tree. Unfortunately, by the time he fought his way there, everyone else had already left, and he saw nothing.
He swam and swam for several days before finally reaching the shore.
Along the way, he also avoided people from other worlds, because he knew very well that if he were discovered, he would most likely die.
This world has always been a dog-eat-dog world, and he doesn't believe that others will let him go or help him just because he is old and frail.
Moreover, his original condition was not like this at all; it was just that his injuries were too severe.
He had already given up hope and was even preparing to find himself a burial plot.
Zhu Rong was overjoyed when the city that seemed to have flown in from the stars appeared. He decided to walk there, believing that once he entered the city, he would have hope.
Suddenly, Zhu Rong saw a streak of light descend from the sky and hover several meters in front of him.
His expression changed slightly, and he assumed a defensive posture. He stared intently for a moment, then his face twitched, and he instinctively exclaimed in surprise: "A primordial being?"
"What innate beings?"
Yang Shen, who was suspended in mid-air, paused for a moment and said, "We've met before, in the safe zone of Hai City."
As he spoke, worried that the old man might not recognize him, he waved his hand, and the energy of heaven and earth gathered together, condensing in mid-air to form his original appearance: "This is what I looked like before."
Zhu Rong's withered body trembled instantly, and he immediately knelt down on the ground, excitedly saying, "This humble one, Zhu Rong, greets the great God Yang!"
"Uh..." Yang Shen was stunned: "What did you call me?"
Zhu Rong was a little nervous, but still answered honestly, "Great God Yang, I once met a person with the talent of the Earth God in the Haishi Safe Zone who addressed you in that way."
Yang Shen raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.
That Earth God talent, if nothing unexpected happens, should belong to Tan Yan, right?
So Tan Yan's talent is that strong? No wonder he can control the earth to roll; it's truly amazing.
However, upon closer reflection, Tan Yan did appear after meeting the old man and called his name, but—
Having figured all this out, Yang Shen was somewhat amused and exasperated, saying, "My name is Yang Shen, the 'Shen' in 'deep and shallow.' You may have misunderstood something."
Zhu Rong was stunned. So the title of the great god was "God Yang"?
However, this did not diminish his reverence for Yang Shen: "Respected great god, please forgive me, I did not mean to deprive you of your title."
"No need to be so nervous. The title 'God Yang' is not bad at all." God Yang smiled.
"Yes, Yang Shen." Zhu Rong's spirits lifted.
Yang Shen nodded slightly, then asked, "What are these innate beings you mentioned earlier?"
"Yang Shen, you don't know?" Zhu Rong asked in astonishment.
Yang Shen pondered for a moment and said, "I think you've misunderstood something. I'm not the 'god' you're talking about. My name is Yang Shen, I'm twenty-five years old, and I'm a native of Blue Star. I'm currently only at the Transformation Realm."
Although it felt good to be treated like a god, Yang Shen disdained to actually create any deities, and even less wanted to pretend to be an old monster.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Rong was even more astonished; his first reaction was disbelief.
Suddenly, Zhu Rong had a thought: "Could this God Yang be the reincarnation of some deity?"
As soon as this idea came to him, he felt that he understood completely, because the countless rays of light he had seen before, which represented different realms, could not possibly be fake.
In particular, Yang Shen was a young man not long ago, but now he looks like a child. Who can do that?
In any case, Zhu Rong had never heard of any secret technique that could make a person change so much in a short period of time, so much so that even his special pupil technique could not see through it.
Only the reincarnation of a deity could possess such supernatural powers.
Thinking of this, Zhu Rong became even more respectful. He would not take the 'God Yang' in front of him seriously just because the aura he exuded was only at the Transformation Realm.
Yang Shen could tell that Zhu Rong didn't believe him, and he was too lazy to explain, so he got back to the point: "Are you from another world?"
"Yes, I am from the Lingyun Continent. Not long ago, my family's ancestral grave was dug up by a puppet of the rules of this world. I intended to kill the puppet, but I did not expect to suffer a backlash from the rules, which left me on the verge of death," Zhu Rong replied respectfully.
"A rule puppet? What is that?" Yang Shen was surprised. He knew about rules, but he had never heard of a rule puppet before.
Zhu Rong hurriedly recounted his past experiences.
It turns out that Zhu Rong had tracked down a scientist from Earth on a large space shuttle that had fallen from the sky. He initially thought the scientist was just an ordinary person and intended to kill him directly.
He did just that, splitting the large space shuttle in two with a single stroke. Afterwards, the Earth scientist screamed in horror, "God, have mercy!"
However, Zhu Rong showed no mercy to the rule puppet. He leaped into the air and swung his sword, about to cleave the rule puppet in two, when suddenly a bolt of lightning appeared out of nowhere and struck him, severely injuring him.
Upon seeing this, the scientist from Earth hurriedly teleported away, each teleportation covering a distance of a kilometer.
However, Zhu Rong thought the lightning was a coincidence and didn't think much of it. He continued his pursuit. With his cultivation at the Butterfly Transformation Realm, even if he was seriously injured, he was not someone an ordinary person could withstand. Moreover, his flight speed was extremely fast.
