"Are you sure that Lu City was really wiped out because of it?"
Still having doubts about the matter, Shen Qian couldn't help but ask, "Could there be a misunderstanding?"
"This was said by a king himself, so it cannot be false."
"That's strange."
Upon hearing that it was confirmed by the king, Shen Qian could only frown and rule out the possibility he had guessed.
But Shen Qian couldn't think of any other possibilities.
"Perhaps this world has some attraction for it, or perhaps it doesn't want to be enemies with the human race. After all, annihilating four mountain and sea realms is a matter that can be big or small. The fact that it withdrew from our human race's territory more than ten years ago means that it at least had some kind of concern."
Iron Hammer calmly analyzed the situation, which earned the three men's reluctant approval.
"In any case, it's already a pleasant surprise that we've survived today. Besides, there are no more obstacles to wiping out the 'family'."
Venus quickly turned her gaze downwards.
There, the ancient trees, almost withered, retain only a faint trace of life, signifying the end of this world's lifespan.
And there were no longer any obstacles between it and the four people.
"it's over."
Venus's gaze sharpened, and before the three could react, she vanished from her spot, transforming into a golden lightning bolt that struck straight at the ancient tree of life.
...
"Is this what the end of the world looks like?"
At the top of the mountain, Shen Qian gazed at the world that seemed to be gradually darkening and murmured to himself.
Before sinking, I thought I would see some earth-shattering scenes, such as volcanic eruptions, roaring oceans, or frozen earth.
After all, this is how the apocalypse is depicted in some science fiction movies.
But Shen Qian never expected that everything would be so peaceful.
After the ancient tree fell, the desolate death happened silently. Everything seemed the same, but upon closer inspection, one could see that all the colors of this world were fading.
A silent sorrow inexplicably filled Shen Qian's heart. He seemed to see the heavens and earth weeping, but he could not hear any sound.
In a sense, wiping out an entire family is an unforgivable sin.
But for the sake of the people, I have no regrets about sinking into the water at this moment.
He suddenly seemed to understand Tantai Qin, who was being condemned by everyone, even better.
call out!
With a whooshing sound, Iron Hammer, carrying No. 56, descended from mid-air.
After taking the pills and regulating his breathing, Iron Hammer's complexion had improved a lot, and he could move around freely without any problems, but Number 56 was practically useless.
"how's it going?"
Venus, who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground to meditate, stood up.
"Found it."
As Number 56 spoke, he raised his hand, and a pile of irregular, pale blue stones appeared on the ground. Each stone was about the size of a palm and looked extremely ordinary, but upon closer inspection of the patterns, one could almost glimpse the profound principles of the universe within them.
Dao Shi!
"It weighs over thirty pounds, which is not bad."
Venus breathed a sigh of relief and was genuinely happy for Number 56, saying, "At least there's still hope. If we can gather another sixty-odd catties and ask a king or noble to set up the 'Heaven-Seizing Array,' there's still hope of restoring your 'Dao'."
Number 56 nodded slightly, then looked apologetically at Chen Qian, "I do need these Dao Stones. Could you give them all to me? I'll still allocate you one thousand contribution points as agreed before."
According to the conversion of the Hundred Kings Hall, one jin of Dao Stone is worth 100 contribution points. From this perspective, Chen Qian is definitely at a disadvantage.
Moreover, Shenqian had previously stated that he would give up his contribution points and share the items inside the 'gate' equally. Now, No. 56's actions undoubtedly violated the agreement, and Shenqian could have directly refused.
But the four of them had been through life and death together, and Shen Qian was not one to nitpick, so he readily agreed.
"Unfortunately, we didn't find any other valuable treasures inside this 'door' either. There are also some scattered source stones buried in the earth's core, which are actually quite valuable, but it's too troublesome to retrieve them. I'm afraid we don't have that much time."
Number 56 said regretfully.
...I don't need to take it out.
Before he could reveal his secret, he silently thought to himself that since no one else could take it, it wouldn't be against the rules for him to do so.
"Then you guys hurry up and adjust your breathing. I'm going to take a walk around and look at the scenery of this other world one last time, since I won't be able to see it again."
After greeting the three people with a smile, Shen Qian quickly left. After walking a distance, he released the severe suppression on his body, allowing the system, which was about to run out of energy, to come back online.
bite!
With the familiar notification sound, everything went black before Shen Qian's eyes, and he lost consciousness.
