"Thank you for the reminder, Lord Liyang. I will remember it."
Li Yu thanked him, and then said something profound:
"If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay this kindness."
"Li Yuxing, you're too kind." Li Yang's smile deepened, and he waved his hand, responding with a similarly meaningful tone:
"It's all about helping each other to survive in the Water Era. I believe that with Li Yuxingjun's abilities, he will definitely be able to make a name for himself in that 'Thirteenth City'."
Li Yu nodded slightly and said no more.
He glanced back at the crystal coffin guarded by the team members; the baby inside remained peaceful, without any sign of life.
Li Yu's gaze immediately turned cold, landing on the two people behind Shi Tuo Yan who were like walking corpses. He muttered to himself, "Deep Sea Watchers..." When the time is right, he will wipe out this organization along with Zhou Zhenbei.
After confirming that the beast under the black cloth was not moving and could not escape, Li Yu then mounted Little Black and skillfully pulled Fu Xiyao into his arms.
"Let's go." With Li Yu's command, the seven regiments behind him marched out of the city gate in unison and left Yangcheng.
Li Yang stood at the city gate, watching Li Yu's troops disappear into the rain, his gaze complex yet fervent, silently reciting in his heart:
"We'll see each other again soon..."
If Li Yu really does what he expects, then when they meet next time, Li Yu will have a completely new identity, just like him.
......
The rain became even more torrential.
Countless raindrops, like a curtain of water, blurred the outlines of the mountains and rivers, and also blurred the road ahead.
The world was shrouded in a hazy mist.
Xiao Hei carried Li Yu and Fu Xiyao effortlessly, hopping leisurely at the front of the group.
The members of the Seventh Regiment followed Li Yu closely, heading towards the ghost city shrouded in ghosts and full of legends.
After these days of training in formations by Li Yang, the awakened members of the Seventh Regiment are not only in high spirits, but have also formed an indescribable tacit understanding.
Without needing commands, their steps naturally became synchronized, exuding an oppressive aura like a steel torrent as they marched. The rain pelting their uniform raincoats created a somber and chilling atmosphere.
Just as Li Yu's attention was focused on the distance, Fu Xiyao, who was in his arms, quietly leaned against him, and an extremely faint energy fluctuation instantly spread from her body.
"Huh?!" A sudden, intense feeling of weakness washed over Li Yu like a tidal wave! Li Yu's eyes widened in surprise:
It should be noted that with his current energy reserves, it is almost impossible for them to be depleted quickly, so it is even less likely that he would experience this feeling of weakness and powerlessness.
After a moment of alertness, Li Yu immediately sensed the faint energy draining from her body and slowly flowing into Fu Xiyao's body.
Upon realizing this, Li Yu's tense nerves instantly relaxed, and she chuckled to herself, realizing that it was Fu Xiyao who had been behind it all.
Feeling the arms around her waist tighten, Fu Xiyao turned around with a smile, her eyes sparkling with slyness and pride: "This is the new water-based technique that Teacher taught me, an ability that can weaken people—Weak Water."
“Weak Water…” Li Yu carefully felt the weakness and nodded; it was indeed aptly named.
"How was the result?" Fu Xiyao looked at Li Yu expectantly, her eyes sparkling, and the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, with a hint of playful boasting.
Li Yun could sense that Fu Xiyao seemed much more cheerful during the time they hadn't seen each other, thanks to Murong Xue's guidance.
Seeing Fu Xiyao's expectant look, Li Yu reached out and gently patted Fu Xiyao's head, smiling as she said:
"The effect is very good. Even I can feel that I have been weakened. I have learned a new ability so quickly. I have made progress."
Upon hearing Li Yu's praise, Fu Xiyao's face immediately lit up with a bright smile, her eyes narrowing into slits.
As long as I can help Li Yu, all my efforts will be worthwhile.
Just as his mind relaxed, Li Yu felt the abundant energy within his body, then gently activated his Qi vortex, and the next moment—
Upgrade successful
【Food Storage Jar LV20: Created through supernatural enhancement, a storage container with balanced attributes and a capacity of +200】
[Awakening Successful]
[Awakened Form: Black Jar]
[Black Jar: A fundamental transformation of space, removing limitations. It can store physical entities/energy/information. Living organisms require additional space capacity and energy, but can sustain life for a short period. Energy-type substances will be neutralized.]
[Unlock Skill: Miniature Black Hole]
[Can activate a miniature gravitational field with a radius of 5 meters, quickly capturing targets within its range. Captured items are compressed into the tank's space, simultaneously triggering the "Absolute Preservation" effect.]
Li Yu took out the food storage jar and saw that the jar had now turned into a liquid dark metallic texture, with spiral suction patterns on the surface, and a slight feeling of weightlessness when touched.
Having finished everything, Li Yu did not continue to activate the Qi vortex. He wanted to wait until he reached Ghost City. If he could successfully break through the limitations through the power of the ghosts, he could quickly upgrade the Phoenix Bow's level in one go and usher in a qualitative leap!
By then, he might truly have the ability to face the General of Zhongzhou directly.
Just as Li Yu was leading the Seventh Regiment to the Thirteenth City, a storm that swept across the entire Central Plains was suddenly unleashed!
The Central Plains official Supreme Command's Document No. 1: Unification Order has been delivered to every commander.
Effective immediately, all defensive deployments are cancelled. The strategic focus shifts entirely to outward expansion! At all costs, we will annex and integrate all territories outside the borders of Zhongzhou as quickly as possible!
In just a few days, the massive war machine of Zhongzhou was running at full speed, roaring and sweeping across all directions.
Many insiders have already begun preparing to deal with the large influx of foreign populations and refugees after taking over the new territory.
As for whether this expansion plan in Zhongzhou will succeed, no one has ever doubted it.
Resistance may exist, but in the face of the current dominant and unfathomably powerful Central Plains, the unification of the Central Plains is already a predetermined outcome!
The three elite legions belonging to the Central Plains government were mobilized simultaneously, like three peerless divine weapons unsheathed, striking in three directions at the same time!
Only the Golden Sky Sword Immortal, hailed as "the one under heaven," stood guard over Golden City like a pillar of strength, deterring the villains.
The only difference from the previous large-scale mobilizations is that the purpose of the three legions this time is not to stop the alien beasts, but to expand outwards!
The First Legion, commanded by Bai Linzhu, leads 30,000 elite Awakened warriors and 100 high-ranking Awakened generals with auras as deep as abyss, their target—the former territory of the Heavenly Khan!
The Second Legion, commanded by Wu Mofei, boasts 25,000 iron-blooded soldiers and a hundred high-ranking generals. Its advance extends to the Lesser Central Plains region!
The Third Legion, led by Commander Jiang Feng, consists of 20,000 elite warriors and 100 high-level Awakened. They march north to aid the Xiao family in the northern border, their swords pointed at the border occupied by the Japanese!
