398. Chapter 397: The Terrible Thread

The glowing threads hanging down from one end of the sky only swayed, bringing countless destruction. A city that was still intact was unrecognizable in less than ten minutes, and Li Yi was powerless to stop it. He could only watch this scene happen, personally experiencing this scene that was like a natural disaster.

At this moment, the cultivators stationed in the city were very powerless. They had made all preparations, but they never thought that the first thing they faced was this kind of thing that could not be understood.

Fortunately, such a situation did not last.

After dawn.

The crystal clear thread began to retract slowly at this moment, as if these things had only completed their mission, or the hanging thread was only to stir up the Earth, to see the reaction on Earth... In short, this dangerous thing disappeared with the appearance of the sun, and retreated to the end of the sky.

"Left?"

Everyone witnessed this scene and was a little surprised.

"Perhaps the other party is too strong and is not interested in us, so they chose to let us go." Lin Yue stared at the departing thread and made a guess.

"Or, the appearance of this thing was only to collect information. The Heaven-Tilting event is still continuing. People with great strength can perceive the changes in the world in advance and use some heaven-shaking means to explore the changes that appear nearby. This is very normal. It's just that for us, it's just exploration, and we can't deal with it." Zhao Zhao Lingfu also guessed.

"No matter what, the harm of this first wave has finally passed. Li Yi, perhaps we should start to prepare for the retreat. If we stay any longer, I'm worried that we will be buried with this city." Lu Lu Jue said with a solemn expression.

Li Yi also understood the seriousness of the matter at this moment. He looked at Lin Yue.

Lin Yue understood, and she said: "I will let Lan Ji control the Thunder Fighter to forcefully blast a road in the city, straight to the danger zone. The route was already planned before... but doing this will destroy many houses... Before, this kind of practice was a bit extreme, but now that it has been stirred by that thing, the city is almost destroyed, so I have no scruples now."

"Then do it, and prepare the vehicles." Li Yi said.

The unease in his heart was magnifying. It was time to retreat back to the Four Seas and Eight Continents, save his life first, and then come back after things were stable. If the situation was bad, permanent residence in the Four Seas and Eight Continents was not a choice.

"Lu Lu Jue, Zhao Zhao Xiaoxiao, Cheng Pingfang, you guys come with me." Lin Yue called a few people to help.

"Okay." Several people didn't hesitate and nodded immediately.

However, at this moment, everyone suddenly felt a tightness in their chests, as if a rainstorm was coming. It was just that this stuffiness was more intense, making people feel suffocated. And for some reason, their bodies seemed to have suddenly become lighter, and some gravel and buildings nearby even slowly floated off the ground.

"What's going on?"

This sudden change made everyone panic immediately.

They thought they could get a moment of breathing space after the hanging light disappeared, but they never thought that the anomaly would come so fiercely.

However, Li Yi seemed to have noticed it early. He looked up at the sky.

The originally somewhat gloomy sky became bright in a very short time. The clouds covering the sky seemed to be affected by a great force, and disappeared in an instant. The surrounding light suddenly became bright, but this brightness was really a bit dazzling, making people almost unable to see clearly.

But after the light gradually returned to normal, everyone was completely shocked by the scene in the sky.

They saw that the original sky had been torn apart, revealing a huge and hideous opening. In that opening, a strange world was revealed. That world was very large, occupying the sight of the sky, like a planet, approaching at this moment, as if it was about to collide.

At such a close distance, even the gravity on Earth was affected. The sudden weightlessness just now was because of this reason.

"Are you kidding? A great world was pulled over? Is this going to collide with our world and destroy Earth?" Someone said in horror.

Everyone had thought that the Heaven-Tilting event would be very serious, but they never thought it would be so serious.

"No, that world can't collide. It's the abundant cosmic energy that opened the cross-world gate. It looks very close, but in fact, we are far apart." Li Yi frowned and took a deep breath: "Do you feel the abundant cosmic energy nearby? It's all transmitted from that world."

"What I'm worried about is not the collision of worlds, but that the cosmic energy of the other world is so abundant, how powerful creatures should be gestated? If they invade, can we resist? And it's not just that world, over there, and over there, the sky has been torn apart. What kind of world does that connect to?"

"This is just a corner of Tianchang City. In other places, perhaps there are existences that cannot be observed."

Li Yi felt his scalp tingle at this moment.

Now Earth has completely become a sieve, with loopholes everywhere. Any world can come over to wander around, and with Earth as a springboard, you can go to other worlds. This place will definitely become a chaotic battlefield.

In this way, where is there any peace here?

"It's coming, someone from that world is coming."

Just when everyone hadn't recovered from the shock, suddenly, after that world with abundant cosmic energy was revealed, rays of light, like a meteor shower, fell densely towards Earth. These streamers quickly scattered after successfully crossing the world, heading to all parts of the world.

But several of the streamers headed straight for Tianchang City.

It wasn't until they were close enough that Li Yi saw that those streamers were living people, no, to be precise, cultivators.

These cultivators drove escape lights, with extremely fast speed, crossing the world and arriving.

"It's broken, we have become natives, and we are going to be troubled by people crossing the world." Lu Lu Jue couldn't help but exclaim when he saw this scene.

In the past, Earthlings crossed the world everywhere, looking for opportunities while also making other worlds messy. This time, the Heaven-Tilting event happened, but the cross-world gate opened in their own home, and it looked like it wouldn't be able to close for a while.

"The other party came prepared, knowing in advance that the Heaven-Tilting event would happen, so as soon as the opportunity arrived, they invaded. And they all have purposes, scattering everywhere as soon as they successfully cross the world, preventing them from encountering strong enemies and being wiped out in one pot. Judging from the speed of those people flying, they are all very strong, at least with the cultivation of the Spirit Power Realm or above. Whether there are more powerful characters hidden, I don't know yet." Li Yi's eyes were solemn.

"Sister Lin, you have to prepare quickly. Several people have already come to Tianchang City. I'm worried that they will come for us."

"I'll go help too." Zhao Zhao Lingfu said.

They didn't dare to hesitate at this moment, used the Thunder Fighter to open the road, rescued the people trapped underground, and then started to evacuate from the prepared vehicles.

Very quickly, under Li Yi's observation.

Three streamers fell above Tianchang City. After the streamers dissipated, three people wearing ancient costumes appeared, one was an old man with a gloomy look and short beard, one was a middle-aged woman wearing palace clothes, and the other was a young man in white, with a cold expression.

The three people stood in the air, with extraordinary momentum, and were also constantly patrolling the surroundings.

"Strong people have crossed the world and arrived, terrible."

In a corner of the city, Zhang Lei, the captain of the Investigation Bureau, saw this scene, and his face changed suddenly. In fact, what he was most worried about was not natural disasters, but man-made disasters. After all, disasters are temporary, but man-made disasters are endless. Now the strength of cultivators on Earth is not enough to compare with those worlds that have cultivated for many years.

"Why are these people so strong, what are they doing on Earth?" Zheng Gong on the side asked in surprise.

"Like some cross-worlders, if you don't go to see, how do you know if Earth is good or not? But this is often just a look, which will bring a lot of trouble and danger." Zhang Lei frowned and said; "However, at the moment, the other party hasn't messed around, and I don't know if they are friends or enemies. If possible, it's best not to be at odds with them. The current Tianchang City has become like this, and it can't stand any more tossing."

"Zheng Gong, you stay here to command, I will try to see if I can negotiate with the other party."

"No, this is too dangerous." Zheng Gong said hurriedly.

Zhang Lei said: "I am the captain of the Investigation Bureau of this city. This is my responsibility. If I don't go, who will?"

After speaking, without waiting for Zheng Gong to answer, he flew into the air and flew towards the direction where the three people were in a not-so-skilled way.

Soul Realm driving the body to fly is very reluctant. Most people can only do floating in the air. It is not simple for Zhang Lei to barely fly.

Seeing this, Zheng Gong was a little anxious. Finally, there was no way, he called Li Yi directly. Although the communication signal was disconnected, the Investigation Bureau had made preparations before and built a temporary communication, just to deal with the appearance of disasters.

It was just that the one who answered the phone was not Li Yi, but the artificial intelligence Lan Ji.

"Lan Ji, tell Li Yi immediately that Captain Zhang Lei has already gone to negotiate with the three cross-world personnel of the other party." Zheng Gong said.

"Okay, I will pass this information to Master as soon as possible." Lan Ji's voice was still unhurried and pleasant.

Zheng Gong hung up the phone immediately, and then ordered the investigators of the Investigation Bureau to prepare. If Captain Zhang Lei had an accident, it would mean that the three people of the other party were enemies, so fire with full force immediately and do their best to kill them.

At the same time.

The intelligent robot Lan Ji also walked down from the Thunder Fighter. It conveyed such an important message to Li Yi.

"What? Captain Zhang Lei is going to negotiate with the three cross-world people of the other party?" Li Yi was stunned when he heard this.

This is too dangerous.

The other party is obviously strong. If you go to negotiate rashly, you might encounter danger.

However, immediately, he understood Zhang Lei's approach.

At the moment, the Heaven-Tilting event is constantly happening, and unknown strong people are appearing. It is very necessary to negotiate in advance. This can determine the attitude of the other party. After all, you can't just ignore it.

It's just that Li Yi doesn't recommend Zhang Lei to go for this kind of negotiation. At the very least, let a Spirit Power Realm, or a more powerful Spirit God Realm cultivator go.

In this way, it can play a certain degree of deterrent effect.

"In this situation, I guess I can't find a more suitable person to negotiate. Now the highest realm in Tianchang City is the Soul Realm. If I really want to negotiate, I seem to be more suitable." Li Yi's eyes moved. After a short hesitation, he took out a red magic sword from the storage magic treasure.

This is a flying magic treasure. Although it looks like a sword, it is not a weapon.

Accompanied by the infusion of cosmic energy in his body, the magic sword instantly shone with red light, and then carried Li Yi to fly towards the direction where the three people were at an extremely fast speed.

If it's a blessing, it's not a disaster; if it's a disaster, you can't avoid it.

He can see the other party, and the other party probably can see him too. Shrinking here doesn't mean nothing will happen. Rather than letting Zhang Lei go alone, it's better for him to go and find out.

"Li Yi, be careful." Lin Yue shouted with concern.

"No matter what the situation is here, the evacuation plan remains unchanged. After going to the Ghost Street, someone will naturally meet you." Li Yi left this sentence. ===== CHAPTER 395 =====

They looked at the skyscraper that had become a ruin, their faces filled with helplessness.

This kind of disaster, even if you have seen it, you are powerless to stop it.

"That's good, as long as people are fine, if the building is destroyed, so be it," Li Yi said. "Next, we still need to be a bit careful. Five or six lines like this are drifting through the city; there's no telling when they might swing over again."

His mood was heavy.

This was only the beginning, and the city had already suffered severe damage, yet this was merely a start.

"By the way, where is Niu Niu? Where did it run off to?" Suddenly, Li Yi discovered his ox was missing.

"It's buried under the ruins. It hasn't moved since just now; it was hit hard by the collapsing skyscraper, but it looks like it should be fine. This exotic beast has an astonishing physique; being hit by a building is nothing to it," Lin Yue said, pointing at the ruins.

Soon, the ruins stirred.

Niu Niu poked its head out, its eyes clear and bewildered, seemingly unaware of what had happened.

It was immersed in an ocean of math problems and had no time to attend to anything else.

Seeing that it was fine, Li Yi couldn't be bothered to care anymore and instead looked toward another direction of the city. He hadn't been able to stop those glowing thin lines, and that Yang Wei didn't seem to have stopped them either.

Or was it that he was unwilling to use his supernatural powers?

But it didn't matter now.

Five or six thin lines were wreaking havoc in the city; at this moment, the city was practically finished, and there weren't many buildings left unscathed.

This situation continued until after dawn.
