Almost Annihilated

"The Baoyun Sea tide is rising again, the children are afraid they are coming back!"

In the short few months, for cultivators, it passed in a flash. In the past ten months, although ten thousand cultivators had entered Hengze Heaven, the Baoyun Ferry was not quiet at all. Cultivators from all over the world took the Yiyun Ferry one after another, and even great experts crossed the Fengfu River to wait for their juniors to leave seclusion—needless to say, these were all great experts of the Sheng Sect, who had deep confidence in their disciples, so they came in person to avoid any unexpected changes after the Hengze Jade Dew was brought out. For Foundation Establishment cultivators, as long as the Jade Dew was brought out of Hengze Heaven, the fighting would end. But for the elders, the meat of the play was in the journey after that.

"True Person Lu, long time no see. I didn't expect you to come out to receive the disciples this time." In front of the Baoyun Ferry, an embroidered girl smiled and chatted with Lu Huangning, "It seems like a thousand years since we last parted."

Lu Huangning coughed, and a trace of a bitter smile appeared on his face, "True Person Zhang doesn't remember. Five hundred years ago, you came to Zijing Mountain as a guest, and we had met once."

True Person Zhang said "Ah", tilted her head and thought for a long time, then smiled apologetically, "I'm old, and my memory is poor. I really don't remember. Please forgive me, True Person Lu."

People who cultivate the Dao are mostly photographic in memory. If Lu Huangning hadn't deliberately held some divine ability, there was no reason for True Person Zhang not to remember. This was implicitly mocking Lu Huangning for being down-and-out in the sect. The visit hundreds of years ago didn't even qualify to be seen by True Person Zhang. Several great cultivators sitting or standing on the left and right of the Baoyun Ferry were all aware of this. The various eyes looking over were all waiting to see Lu Huangning's reaction. In the momentum field, they were already fighting openly and secretly, dividing into camps, and fighting for the initiative in the field.

Lu Huangning had a very good temper and smiled, "True Person Zhang is a noble person who forgets things, which is also possible."

His momentum was like a stubborn stone, steadily occupying a corner of the field, neither big nor small, which was the share that all Nascent Soul cultivators should occupy. True Person Zhang's momentum was pressing, Lu Huangning seemed not to notice, and the momentum had not trembled in the slightest. True Person Zhang was about to approach a few more steps, when a bearded cultivator with leopard eyes and ring eyes at the distance of the ferry said in a deep voice, "Enough, the Baoyun Sea tide is imminent. Lady Zhang, you are stirring up spiritual energy. If you disturb the tide, I will look for your trouble."

He said this with great majesty. Lady Zhang's delicate body couldn't help but tremble, as if she couldn't bear the momentum of this person. Her phoenix eyes were already filled with murderous intent, and she was about to speak, when her expression suddenly moved. In an instant, her figure turned into petals, falling in place, and when she reappeared, she was already at the edge of the sky. The cultivators also sensed the subtle changes in spiritual energy in the tide, and one after another transformed and went. Lu Huangning smiled at the female cultivator beside him, "Shaowei, can you feel it? When you first came here a thousand years ago, I'm afraid you didn't have such a deep understanding."

Xu Shaowei was extremely serious beside Lu Huangning. Hearing Lu Huangning's question, she first blessed herself slightly to show her respect for Lu Huangning, and then said with a solemn expression, "When I came before, it was to protect the junior brother. I only felt that there was a unique charm in the spiritual energy of Hengze Heaven. Today, I am lucky to have a small success in Golden Core, so I can capture the ancient and desolate meaning in the spiritual energy. I am afraid that this Hengze Heaven was left by the ancient great power cultivator who fell here when this universe was first opened. Junior sister has a hypothesis in her heart—I am afraid that this Heaven has an unclear relationship with Huang Shoushan."

Lu Huangning smiled slightly and said warmly, "Sure enough, you have gained quite a bit. But you are too careful. Could it be that I will eat you? Let's go. Hengze Heaven is about to open. I don't know what friends Ci and Fengyu have made inside."

He reached out to Xu Shaowei. Xu Shaowei's shoulders trembled slightly, and she only dared to grab Lu Huangning's sleeve. Lu Huangning shook his head and sighed with a smile, and also transformed into a stream of light with her. In the blink of an eye, they manifested at the place where the Hengze Heaven spiritual energy erupted, chose a piece of auspicious cloud to stand on, lowered their heads and looked at the turbulent spiritual energy sea below, and asked, "When you came last time, do you still remember how you came out?"

Xu Shaowei said, "When I went in, I was rolled in. When I came back, I stayed on the shore. At the moment the wave rolled in, I issued a magic treasure, killed everyone around me, snatched the Jade Dew, and was rolled into the spiritual energy sea under the clouds by the wave. I tried my best to swim up, but because I brought the Jade Dew, the more I swam, the heavier my body became. I had no choice but to throw the junior brother's head and the Jade Dew down together, and it was picked up cheaply by a cultivator surnamed Ran from the Qingling Gate. They eventually obtained the Jade Dew."

Speaking of the past a thousand years ago, her voice also had a trace of nostalgia, "In a blink of an eye, Junior Brother Huang has also been dead for a thousand years. Because of his death news, the master was sad for a few days."

Lu Huangning also sighed, "In the Great Dao, letting go halfway is the constant. Junior Brother Huang's style seems to be still vivid in my eyes. It turns out that we haven't stood side by side for a thousand years."

Neither of them spoke anymore. Xu Shaowei pinched Lu Huangning's sleeve tightly without knowing it, as if she vaguely felt someone looking over, so she withdrew her plain hand, frowned and looked back, but only saw auspicious clouds dancing. Where was anyone there?

Lu Huangning asked, "What's wrong?"

Xu Shaowei shook her head, "Nothing... but why hasn't anyone come out yet?"

Her brows were slightly frowned, "If it was according to my time, when the tide rose, someone would be rolled out. Could it be that there were some strange changes in Hengze Heaven?"

Lu Huangning also showed concern, and was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a tide sound. Then, in the sea under the clouds, there were suddenly a few more auras. Although weak, they could be distinguished. It was the Foundation Establishment disciples swimming up. His expression finally relaxed, and he smiled, "They are coming. I don't know if they can swim out of this last section of obstruction."

"If they haven't been assimilated too much, it shouldn't be a problem... Ah!"

Xu Shaowei couldn't help but cover her lips and call out softly, "Why... why did they all fall down?"

Her beautiful face was shocked and suspicious, "Could it be those small cultivators who took precious medicine? But it shouldn't be. The more precious medicine they take, the deeper they merge, the heavier their bodies will be. The tide is not easy to roll them. It is not yet the time when the spiritual tide is most prosperous. It will take two or three hours before they are sent out. Those who can come out now should be those who haven't merged too much and have relatively high cultivation. How could they..."

While speaking, another wave surged, but no one came out of Hengze Heaven. At this point, everyone knew that something must have happened in Hengze Heaven. The momentum of the Nascent Soul cultivators competing in the momentum field couldn't help but stop. The embroidered girl fell to Lu Huangning's side and said solemnly, "Senior Brother Lu, have you sensed anything?"

She had been looking for Lu Huangning's trouble everywhere just now, but now that she encountered a change, she couldn't help but ask Lu Huangning for advice. Her tone was extremely intimate. The bearded cultivator in the distance couldn't help but sneer, but also asked loudly, "True Person Lu, you studied under True Person Wang and are best at sensing methods. Do you have any warnings in your heart?"

Lu Huangning shook his head, "I am not talented... Ah, one came out!"

Everyone stimulated their divine sense one after another. Sure enough, they sensed an aura appearing in the depths of the cloud sea, struggling to swim up. The cultivators couldn't help but focus on that place, but they couldn't make a move to help, and could only let that aura struggle and swim on the cloud surface, stopping to adjust their breath several times, and dangerously emerging on the cloud surface. A blue-clothed female cultivator shouted, "It's the child of our Guiyi Gate!"

She raised her long sleeves and rolled the white-clothed disciple to her side, injected a spiritual light into his body, and asked, "Good child, what happened in Hengze Heaven?"

The little disciple looked extremely panicked. Seeing the elders in the sect, he cried and said, "A big thing happened, Senior Sister Mu is already dead, they, they can't come out at all..."

He tried his best to swim to the cloud head, squeezed by the spiritual pressure in the extreme depths, obviously already seriously injured. As he spoke, he vomited a mouthful of dirty blood, and said intermittently, "I didn't enter the eight city gates, and I was seriously injured outside. Senior Sister Mu told me to wait outside the city, and she went in to see, and never came out again. Later, later they came out and said many things, saying that the sect inside is an Eternal Dao City..."

The four words "Eternal Dao City" just came out, and all the cultivators' faces changed greatly. The blue-clothed female cultivator's face was as heavy as water, her long sleeves danced continuously, blocking the invisible pressure brought by the attention of many great experts for the disciple. However, the disciple was still shaken by the spiritual power, and vomited another mouthful of blood, "Doing the Dao struggle with the Five Elements Yin-Yang Dao Ancestor..."

"Dao struggle!" Xu Shaowei's hair stood on end, and she couldn't help but lean a few steps closer to Lu Huangning, and whispered, "With the Creation Dao Ancestor?"

She stood close, and only then did she realize that Lu Huangning was pinching the formula in his sleeve, obviously using a divine ability to contact the sect. Xu Shaowei felt a chill in her heart, knowing that the matter was of great importance, so she immediately restrained her mind and dared not disturb Lu Huangning again. She thought secretly, "Hengze Heaven really has changes. I don't know if anyone obtained the Jade Dew this time. This person can come out, so there must be someone who can come out."

"And then?"

Everyone couldn't help but surround the disciple. The blue-clothed female cultivator was also anxious, and injected another spiritual light into the disciple's body, asking, "What is the result of the Dao struggle?"

"There is no result. Originally, the inner and outer cities could not communicate, but suddenly the Dao City turned into sand and left. They all arrived outside the city, and no one sensed the aura of the Jade Dew. I heard that there was a trace of aura in the depths of the battlefield, but at that time the war was deadlocked, and no one could obtain it, so the Jade Dew disappeared."

The disciple received two spiritual lights, and his breath finally stabilized gradually. He wiped the blood on his lips and said, "The great tide came this morning. We all rushed to the shore, but we didn't see the spiritual energy sea, but saw a passage. At the end of the passage was the Langhuan Zhou Heaven. Everyone rushed forward, and then..."

#

"Dead!?"

"Really dead!"

In Hengze Heaven, it was already a mess. Thousands of cultivators were surrounding a passage, all extremely anxious. Some even had spiritual energy surging, and their meridians were messed up by this chaotic momentum field, and they were seriously injured, "How is it possible, could this be true?"

"We can't get out at all? This can't be an illusion!"

"Everyone make way, those who have tried once move to the back, those with the lowest cultivation come first!"

There were still cultivators running and shouting in the crowd, releasing spiritual pressure to deter everyone, "Everyone knows that when we go out from Hengze Heaven, we swim up in the spiritual energy sea. The lower the cultivation, the higher the position they appear in the sea. They swim up, bringing up a force of floating, so that the cultivators appearing in the depths can borrow force to swim up, otherwise the spiritual pressure is enough to damage the Dao foundation! Hurry, those with low cultivation come forward! You—you come!"

Several cultivators were pushed into the passage without explanation, but after walking a few steps, they all showed expressions of pain and flew back to Hengze Heaven quickly, shouting, "Junior brother can't do it either!"

"That side is not Langhuan Zhou Heaven! We walked forward, only feeling the rejection of the whole body. Walking further, we felt that the spiritual energy turned into a sharp sword. Not to mention breathing, even the face and body were in great pain."

As he said, everyone opened their clothes, and sure enough, they saw that there were many bleeding points on their bodies, and it was the same as the hundreds of people in front, "The front is definitely not Langhuan Zhou Heaven!"

"But the spiritual tide has already risen. Even if this is not the way to Baoyun Sea, we must find a way to get out. Otherwise, once the time passes, who knows what changes will happen in Hengze Heaven? After a thousand years, we will definitely not exist, and there will be no possibility of returning to the Zhou Heaven!"

The passage was extremely wide, and more than a dozen people stood at the entrance of the passage arguing, not completely blocking the entrance. Everyone didn't tell them to walk away. A few people endured the pain and rushed out of the passage, but they didn't swim to the water surface, but fell into the depths of the sea in everyone's field of vision. So now there were not many cultivators who dared to try to go out.

While these dozen people were talking, a white-clothed cultivator tentatively walked forward a few steps. He was extremely guarded, but the more he walked, the more relaxed his face became. He turned back and shouted, "I can, I can!"

Just as everyone looked over, a tide came and rolled him away. Vaguely, they could still see him struggling to swim up in the sea. The crowd was in chaos again. Many people rushed into the passage. One or two out of ten could go out, but more people were struggling. Everyone was noisy and had no conclusion. Both Both Ruan Ci looked on coldly in the crowd, pushed Li Pingyan with her hand, and whispered, "Senior Brother Li, you go first, be careful, the spiritual pressure may be very strong."

Li Pingyan didn't know if he realized something from the chaos. He turned and bowed to Both Both Ruan Ci, didn't speak, and flew toward the passage. Both Both Ruan Ci pulled Qin Fengyu, "Feather Lady, wait a moment, see Youwen, me, Shen Qi, and Little Su all leave, then you go out."

In this extremely chaotic momentum field, no aura could be sensed or contacted, but Both Both Ruan Ci believed in the ability and understanding of the three. She stared at Li Pingyan, seeing his figure mixed in a crowd, rushing into the passage, his feet didn't stop, and before long he was rolled away. Her heart was also relieved. Looking closely, before long, she saw a tall cultivator running over, nodding slightly at her, it was the Senior Brother Xu who had eaten a meal with them when they first entered the city gate.

Both Both Ruan Ci understood in her heart, and secretly thought, "So Senior Brother Xu was really killed by Youwen, and it had nothing to do with the Dao City punishment. I think it was Youwen who caught him off guard and poisoned the wine he drank early on."

She also nodded slightly, indicating that she already understood. Jiang Youwen's body disappeared into the passage, and he was rolled away smoothly. Both Both Ruan Ci followed closely, squeezed Qin Fengyu's hand, separated from her, and walked into the passage. Just as one foot stepped into the passage, she heard someone shouting behind her.

"I understand!"

"All Dao friends who have participated in the Dao struggle and worked for the Dao City—"

"Are all unable to get out again!"

Exclamations and wails sounded one after another. Both Both Ruan Ci's heart tightened. She looked back, hoping that Shen, Su, and Qin would all be clever and hurry in. You must know that 80% of the cultivators present had worked for the Dao City, and many had personally gone into battle to kill Yin-Yang Dao soldiers. If they knew that they could never return to the real realm and could only stay in the virtual number like Hengze Heaven forever, the crowd would be angry and sad. Who knows what they would do? It is hard to say that someone will kill those who can go out to vent their anger! It is even worse to be affected by the extremely chaotic momentum field, lose their minds, and fight blindly!

If the front of the passage becomes a battlefield, Qin Fengyu is fine, but Shen Xun and Su Jingxing may not be able to come out. And Both Both Ruan Ci has already calculated in her heart that the number of cultivators who have already gone out is at most dozens, and the floating force formed is simply not enough. I am afraid it is difficult to drive the cultivators of the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment. Unless Shen Xun and Su Jingxing also come out, Qin Fengyu can safely swim up. Otherwise, looking at the stiff swimming posture of the first cultivator who swam out, I am afraid Qin Fengyu will be injured.

In the secret realm, it is really changeable. Hengze Heaven is open once every thousand years. I don't know how many generations of cultivators have practiced inside. When they go out, at least hundreds or thousands of people, and the floating force is very sufficient, so there is no need to be so calculating. Unexpectedly, there was such a change this time, and Qin Fengyu, who had the highest cultivation, was very dangerous. Both Both Ruan Ci looked around and saw the figures of Shen Xun and Su Jingxing flashing in the crowd. Qin Fengyu's red clothes followed closely. Her heart was relieved, and a cool feeling brushed across her face. A giant force pushed her toward the end of the passage. The next moment, she appeared in the spiritual energy sea. Pressure attacked from all directions, almost making her Dao foundation tremble immediately. If it weren't for the Donghua Sword jumping lightly on her wrist, emitting a gentle repulsive force to push away the spiritual energy around her, I am afraid Both Both Ruan Ci would have vomited blood on the spot.

Looking around again, it was a vast black sea, with no one above or below. Her heart was cold, only feeling that it was extremely difficult to rise, while sinking was easy and rapid. The weight of all the spiritual energy sea above her head was pressing down: clearly only at the fourth layer of Foundation Establishment, how could she be transmitted to such a deep place!

Updated! Sorry for the wait, everyone. I'm sending red envelopes in this chapter~

Responding to reader comments: 1. Except for advertising and malicious personal attacks, I never delete comments. 2. Everyone has their own views, and I welcome everyone to express their opinions. 3. But I basically won't be influenced by reader comments, especially since the motivation for writing is entirely to satisfy my own text.

Today's question: Do you know why cultivators who have participated in the Dao City conquest cannot return?

I went to eat iron pot stew at noon, because I saw corn dregs porridge on Douyin last night, and I suddenly discovered that I had never eaten this kind of food. I used to think it was miscellaneous grain porridge, but I found it was not! I am full of curiosity and spirit of trying for this kind of local food that I have never tasted, and I will try it immediately at noon!

I was going to watch *Dungeon Growth Diary*.
