"What's the situation?"

Looking at the third-floor pavilion that was about to collapse, Wu Xian's face was full of confusion.

No, he had already scattered the ashes of the No. 1 God, why did it still collapse? Even if the world line plot is converging, it shouldn't be so unreasonable!

"Wait! Could it be..."

Suddenly, Wu Xian had a flash of inspiration, and an icy poker face wearing glasses appeared in his mind... Intuition told him that the reason why Lingkong Xuange collapsed this time was most likely the work of this guy.

"Damn it!!"

He cursed through gritted teeth, Wu Xian didn't dare to delay any longer, immediately ran in this crumbling pavilion, and at the same time, his mental power expanded rapidly, looking for things that looked like the Eastern Emperor Bell and the Creation Zao Hua Yu Die.

Not long after, Wu Xian found the two utensils that met the target. First, he rushed to an ancient bronze bell like lightning, used the 【Swallowing Heaven】 ability to suck it into his body space, and then ran to a remote corner further away, reaching out to grab a mirror the size of a palm.

However, at this moment, an invisible ripple spread out. After passing through Wu Xian's body, it made him freeze in place, maintaining the posture of running, like a small insect trapped in amber.

At the same time, the pavilion that was collapsing rapidly also stopped its collapse at this moment, as if the time in this area had been frozen, giving a strange feeling that was difficult to describe.

Immediately following, a clear sound of footsteps rang out from behind Wu Xian.

I saw the clone Hearing Chu Xuan enter the third floor of the pavilion, holding the broken black scroll in his hand, and walked to Wu Xian's side.

He first looked at the Follow-Heart Iron Rod in his hand, then stared at Wu Xian himself for a long while, before stretching out his empty left hand to grab the utensil that resembled a mirror, which was the Creation Zao Hua Yu Die.

Crack!!

The sound of glass shattering rang out suddenly, and a terrifying and shocking energy fluctuation erupted from his side, the source of which was Wu Xian who was standing still.

The clone Hearing Chu Xuan turned his head suddenly, and saw Wu Xian, who should have been standing still, suddenly raise his hand. The terrifying force tore out strips of space-time cracks, grabbed the Creation Zao Hua Yu Die, and then... stopped moving again.

At the same time, the clone Hearing Chu Xuan's face, which seemed even more calm and indifferent than the original, finally revealed a change in expression similar to surprise.

"Actually able to resist the space-time power of the Investiture of the Gods, could it be that his power has already touched the realm of Immortal Saint..."

The clone Hearing Chu Xuan muttered to himself.

Undoubtedly, the scene of time stopping like this was naturally his own handiwork.

To be precise, this is one of the many abilities of the Investiture of the Gods. Every time this skill is activated, it requires a large amount of causal points to achieve.

Because of this, Fu Chu waited until Wu Xian finished solving the No. 1 God before making a move, just to obtain the Creation Zao Hua Yu Die at the lowest cost.

As for using the strongest ability of the Investiture of the Gods—manipulating the law of causality, modifying reality, and directly or indirectly erasing Wu Xian's existence itself... Honestly, the clone Hearing Chu Xuan did have such thoughts before, and more than once.

But every time he prepared to take action, the fragment of the Investiture of the Gods in his hand would send out warning and danger signals, as if as long as he dared to do so, something very terrifying would descend, even more terrifying than death.

And now, looking at the space-time cracks appearing around Wu Xian, Fu Chu couldn't help but hesitate again, thinking about whether to take a risk and try it once.

You must know that the Investiture of the Gods is a Great Thousand Artifact. Even if the fragment in Fu Chu's hand is only a small part, the level of power it can exert is definitely above the Fourth Stage.

But even so, Wu Xian still showed signs of being able to contend with it, which meant that he had at least surpassed the Fourth Stage in some aspect and approached the legendary Immortal Saint.

In other words, if he wanted to kill Wu Xian, this was the best, and possibly the last, opportunity for the clone Hearing Chu Xuan.

Thinking of this, the clone Hearing Chu Xuan's gaze fell on the Investiture of the Gods in his hand, feeling the "causal points" burning crazily because of maintaining the time stop...

After pondering for a few seconds, he still gave up this seemingly tempting idea, and instead continued to reach out and grab the Creation Zao Hua Yu Die. I don't know what method he used to split it into two, took away one-third of the size, and the rest remained in Wu Xian's hands.

After finishing this, Fu Chu used the remaining causal points again to urge another ability of the Investiture of the Gods—space travel, and teleported himself to another plane coordinate that had already been anchored.

Buzz buzz buzz————

In the strange buzzing sound, the clone Hearing Chu Xuan's figure began to fade rapidly. Just at this moment, he looked at Wu Xian again, and a white light flashed on the surface of his glasses.

"Let's stop here for this time, and when we meet next time, it will be everything..."

The voice gradually blurred. After Fu Chu's figure completely disappeared, the space-time around had already resumed flow. Wu Xian's body trembled slightly, and then continued to rush forward due to inertia.

The power attribute superimposed by the Light of the Heart was too huge, making him a bit unable to hold back his strength, directly smashing several pillars and accelerating the collapse of the pavilion.

But Wu Xian didn't care about such things, just looked at the broken mirror in his hand and the place where Fu Chu disappeared, his face a bit gloomy.

Just now, in the process of time stopping, although Wu Xian's body could not move, his thinking consciousness was not affected, so he saw Hearing Chu Xuan's appearance, which was why he took the initiative to release the Light of the Heart.

Unfortunately, the power of the Investiture of the Gods was still too terrifying. Even if he superimposed the power of Wu Xian from several other worlds and used the ability of the Feng Hou Qi Men 【Mastering One's Own Changes】, he could only briefly break free from the restraint and could not fully recover his movement. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as Hearing Chu Xuan took away part of the Creation Zao Hua Yu Die, and he felt extremely depressed.

"Damn! I knew there wasn't a word of truth in this four-eyed guy's mouth. What happened to no Investiture of the Gods fragments? Then what is he holding in his hand? Bah! Scumbag!"

Wu Xian was indignant. Thinking of the part of the Creation Zao Hua Yu Die taken away by the clone Hearing Chu Xuan, and not knowing if it could offset the side effects of overusing the Investiture of the Gods, a sense of irritability rose in his heart.

But this emotion came and went quickly.

Things had reached this point, and it was impossible to turn back. It was better to leave Lingkong Xuange first. Otherwise, if he really waited for it to collapse completely and fall into the magma below, even with Wu Xian's ability, he would feel a bit troublesome.

And just as Wu Xian rushed out of Lingkong Xuange and flew towards the top of the crumbling pure white continent, the Main God's prompt sounded in his mind.

【Ding!】

【All members of the Zhongzhou Reincarnation Team, please note: Hidden side plot triggered—Plane Invasion. Expel the plane invaders. For every invader eliminated, reward one B-rank side plot, 5000 reward points... Eliminate the source, all members reward one A-rank side plot, 10000 reward points. Mission failed... no penalty.】

"Plane Invasion?"

In the sub-spatial plane of the Yellow Springs fragments, the members of the Zhongzhou Team and the Demon Team who were talking to Aizen couldn't help but look at each other, and then looked at Aizen in unison, their eyes gradually becoming strange.

"..."

Aizen's eyes twitched. Although he didn't know what happened, intuition told him that something very bad was about to happen.

Buzz buzz buzz—

Just at this moment, not far from everyone, a piece of void began to twist and rotate slowly, forming a space channel about five meters wide, from which Zhan Lan walked out, her tall and graceful figure.

I saw her bathed in firelight, her bright red long hair fluttering in the wind, and with the Vibranium Magic Guide Armor on her body, she was truly like a Valkyrie who had just won a battle.

However, at this very moment, everyone's eyes did not fall on Zhan Lan, but were all attracted by the scene on the other side of the space channel.

I saw that in the sky full of yellow sand, a black giant dragon with a body size of more than a hundred meters was lying there quietly, its eyes without any spirit, like a sculpture, having already lost its vitality.

The second update is at noon. I was pulled by my brother and sister to eat hot pot last night, and I got home a bit late. Sorry.
