Chapter 649: Feeling Like He Can Do It Again

"The Great Contention Era has finally arrived!"

Drenched by the spiritual rain that fell like a torrential downpour, Shen Yu watched this scene in silence, ultimately unable to stop it.

No, to be precise, perhaps if not for him, Mu Zishan might have been able to hold on for a while longer.

Although Du Xiyin and the others had obtained the Broken Sword and could lock onto Mu Zishan's location, it was not easy for them to break through the Forbidden Land.

On the contrary, it was his killing of the old monster inside Songbai that indirectly helped them obtain enough power to break through the Forbidden Land.

Once the countless cracks and gaps in the Forbidden Land began leaking Spirit Qi simultaneously, even if he tried every possible way to seal them, it was ultimately to no avail; he still could not stop it.

Thinking of this, Shen Yu could not help but smile bitterly. Since things had already reached this point, he could only helplessly accept reality.

Feeling the nourishment of this Spirit Qi, it was as if countless Daos appeared before his eyes at this moment, and countless insights flooded his heart in an instant.

The limits of heaven and earth were constantly being raised, and at the same time, those heavy Daos that were once high and unreachable now seemed within reach.

Those who did not understand the situation were cheering, cheering for themselves; they felt their realms rising rapidly, their strength climbing continuously, reaching heights they had never dared to imagine before.

Little did they know, for them, this was merely the beginning of a disaster. Soon, the old monsters would awaken. And they, in turn, were the delicious meals these old monsters had long coveted.

"Spirit Qi Surge, the Great Contention Era has arrived, our era is here!"

Borrowing the surging Spirit Qi and the countless insights flooding his heart at this moment, Shen Yu's perception also seemed to cover the heavens and the earth.

At this moment, the voices reaching his ears were those who, like Du Xiyin and the others, had already quietly awakened but had never shown themselves.

Upon sensing this surging Spirit Qi, they were likewise cheering and shouting in excitement.

It turned out that besides Du Xiyin and the others, there were three more people who had awakened but had not appeared, choosing instead to lurk in the shadows.

Now that the Forbidden Land had been opened and the Spirit Qi Surge had begun, their era had indeed arrived.

At this moment, after the Spirit Qi Surge, their power returned to their bodies, and they felt they could do it again, feeling safe and bold enough to voice their presence.

Even regarding the so-called strongest, Shen Yu, Cold Spear, and Bai Yi, they no longer needed to have any misgivings.

From now on, they could devour and slaughter to their heart's content; they would once again see the feast where the ground was covered in piles of white bones.

And as those who awakened first and began devouring first, they would inevitably claim the lion's share in this Spirit Qi Surge.

To them, everything was so wonderful.

These voices reaching his ears made Shen Yu feel a wave of irritation. The experience card only had a little time left, so he simply stopped blocking the leaking Spirit Qi and turned to look at those people.

Although there was not much time left, it was enough to finish off these few!

A flash of ruthlessness crossed his eyes, and Shen Yu tore through space and swept toward the distance, behind him the seemingly endless torrential rain.

"My power has returned, hahaha, I have waited for this day for so long, it has finally come!"

Outside a desolate mountain village, a white-haired old man looked at the sky in excitement. At this moment, his power was constantly recovering, increasing along with the limits of heaven and earth, as if there were no end to it.

At the same time, an unimaginable hunger flooded his heart, giving him an urge to devour everything before him.

He knew he had to eat; those so-called heroes of the Jianghu were not easy to find for the moment, but ordinary people were everywhere.

Not far from his location, there was a large city. If he devoured the people inside, it would be enough to fill his stomach for a meal!

But before he could even start to move, a Sword Qi came from afar, directly swallowing and submerging him.

This Sword Qi was too terrifying, so terrifying that even though his power had recovered a portion, he still could not withstand it.

In the blink of an eye, he perished under this terrifying Sword Qi.

After Shen Yu appeared, he only glanced at that side indifferently, then immediately rushed to the next location.

Possessing the power of the Master, he could easily attack these old monsters even from a great distance.

But Shen Yu was not at ease; these old monsters' powers had awakened, and who knew what kind of special abilities they might have. Therefore, he did not mind the trouble; he only feared these people would not be dead enough.

There were only three of them anyway; such a long time was enough for him to finish them all off.

Keeping a close watch on the time of the experience card, Shen Yu flew rapidly to one place after another.

Having solved the three people in an instant, the time for the experience card was also nearing its limit. Taking advantage of this moment, Shen Yu sat cross-legged to comprehend heaven and earth, digesting what he had gained at the fastest speed.

The Spirit Qi Surge was also an opportunity; at this moment, realms that were once unattainable seemed within reach. On this day, countless people would break their shackles and breakthrough themselves.

Likewise, many old monsters would awaken. At this time, what he needed was to improve himself against the clock, so that he could protect himself and protect more people in the Great Contention Era.

After he sat cross-legged on the ground for a short while, the realm and power of his body receded like a tide, leaving him with a sense of emptiness, as if he had lost a great deal in an instant.

The feeling of the powerful strength brought by the experience card was indeed addictive, but Shen Yu was also very clear that what was not his own was ultimately not his own.

Even if he obtained it, he could not exert its maximum power.

The current Spirit Qi Surge was actually an opportunity for him; by grasping this opportunity, perhaps he could go even further.

Sitting quietly cross-legged for a day and a night, Shen Yu only opened his eyes after the spiritual rain stopped falling, sighing with a sense of loss.

On this day, as this endless Spirit Qi poured into his body, he initially had the Master's power and realm as a reference, but even so, he was still a little short of a breakthrough.

He had originally thought he could cross this threshold in one go, and beyond the threshold would be a vast sky. But now that he could not cross it, he was ultimately lacking something.

"So be it!" Sighing, Shen Yu no longer dwelled on this. With the Mountain and River Map in his hand, even those with a higher realm than his, he had nothing to fear.

Moreover, he had now found a path to wealth. As long as he hunted those old monsters and kept checking in, his strength would inevitably increase greatly.

It was just that he did not know if the old monsters slowly awakening after the Spirit Qi Surge would recover their strength quickly. If they did not recover quickly, it would be fine, but if their strength reached its peak quickly, that would be troublesome.

"System, check in!"

"Check-in successful, Juyishiwudi for one minute. Invincible in the world for one minute, no opponents within sight!"

The two words "Invincible" almost blinded Shen Yu's eyes. With one sentence, once the Juyishiwudi reward was used, no matter how strong those present were, they could only be trash.

However, this invincibility only lasted for one minute and was a one-time consumable. Once the time was up, this reward would disappear completely.

After working hard to kill three old monsters, the result was only one minute of time. Sigh, the system was getting stingier!

"Forget it, it's better than nothing, no point in being picky!" Shaking his head helplessly, Shen Yu accepted the reward and strolled toward the distance. At this moment, he felt he could do it again.

He had used one of the experience cards in his hand, and now there was one left. Now that he had the invincibility halo, let's see who dared to be unconvinced; if they had the ability, they could try a one-on-one!
