The fact that sothing valued so highly by an advanced civilization like the Star Alliance proves its worth beyond words.
"So, you’ve been clearing the surrounding environnt lately and even demolished quite a few buildings for today, haven’t you?"
Narui seed to understand all of a sudden why the Inspector issued those seemingly odd commands.
"Alright, there’s no ti to lose. Take this docunt to Su Ya imdiately and have her summon the Guard Team to bring all the survivors back to camp. They shouldn’t keep wandering outside any longer."
Yang Yangyang handed the parchnt to Narui and watched as the girl dashed away, letting out a slight sigh of relief.
"Ah, this primitive life is finally coming to an end. Even delivering a recall command requires a ssenger; the efficiency is just too low..."
He looked up at the crimson sky outside and murmured:
"It’s about ti to change the background here too..."
...
The passageway area, above.
This is the outer region of the Central Continent, as the na implies, it’s the necessary path to the United City in the central area.
It’s fair to say the entire outer circle of the Federation Central Continent consists of these passageway areas.
At this mont, Zhang Xiaoman stood in mid-air, his gaze fixed on the city below.
Below him was an area cleared for the World Tree to grow, though limited in space, the size should suffice.
Finding such a large open space in a city of towering buildings was no easy feat.
Judging from the scattered stones around, this place used to be a grand sculpture that Yang Yangyang forcibly dismantled to create this space.
"Kid, that fruit in your hand looks quite delicious... Would you consider giving it to ? Perhaps it could speed up my recovery, and when I’m fully healed, you’ll surely benefit."
In Divine Thought, the Green Little Dragon was eyeing that droplet while drooling.
"Ni Yang, I’m using this thing to save people, so you better not think about it."
Zhang Xiaoman flatly refused.
He thought for a mont and added:
"But if you really need it, I’ll try to get one for you when I have the chance, but it definitely won’t happen anyti soon."
Ni Yang displayed a slightly disappointed expression. It used its Divine Thought to scan the city below and couldn’t help but mutter:
"Tch, playing the savior card again. I really don’t understand you people; they’re all just mortals. Why do you care so much about them... Their life and death have nothing to do with you, do they? I didn’t see other cultivators like you before."
Zhang Xiaoman had heard it multiple tis before and didn’t bother arguing anymore.
You can’t expect a high-and-mighty Immortal Realm Divine Beast to care about the lives of mortals.
Just as many people wouldn’t pay attention to the life and death of ants on the roadside.
Zhang Xiaoman didn’t intend to correct others’ thinking. He just knew that what he was doing was worthwhile, and that was enough.
However, Ni Yang’s earlier reminder led him to suddenly connect to certain matters.
And that is regarding the so-called cultivators ntioned by the other party.
Ever since the beginning, he had always been puzzled.
Why do cultivators all display such indifference to life, viewing mortals as ants?
Certainly, many novels and movies are set up similarly, and everyone is used to it.
But fiction is, after all, just fiction, and such logic seems strange when applied to reality.
Even though cultivators have already transcended the mundane, single-mindedly seeking the Dao, only caring about becoming immortals.
But still, they shouldn’t treat mortal life as nothing, as if they aren’t human themselves.
If such were individual cases, or like demon beasts from different species, it would make so sense.
But from the words of that Emperor called Jing Xuan, Zhang Xiaoman heard nothing but boundless oppression and slaughter.
This behavior of treating mortals like livestock is truly incomprehensible.
He only had a faint guess about the answer to this question.
But the result of that guess was so horrifying he was unwilling to believe it.
Fortunately, this wasn’t an urgent issue that needed solving imdiately.
He shook his head and decided not to dwell on it anymore.
anwhile, in the city, countless figures were swiftly moving between the buildings.
If observed through a God’s perspective, it would be clear that all the monsters in the passageway area were converging in one direction.
"Are they coming...? Good, let clear them up first, so I don’t have to hunt them down one by one later..."
Zhang Xiaoman’s eyes glowed with the Spiritual Vision’s Golden Light, capturing the scene below.
The droplet in his hand was a World Tree Seed.
Before planting, this seed would crazily attract surrounding monsters to snatch it, sothing he’d witnessed back on the Moon.
He chose not to return to the Original Realm Space but instead waited here, intending to use the World Tree Seed’s characteristic to gather the monsters and clear them in one go.
If it weren’t for the seed’s inability to be stored outside for long, he would’ve considered using it as bait for a long-term fishing plan.
Right now, all the monsters in B-District of the passageway area were drawn in, appearing frenzied, gathering on the open space at his feet.
"Rustle, rustle, rustle!!"
From the sky, the sound of innurable wings flapping reached his ears.
At the horizon within sight, a vast dark cloud approached, blotting out the sun, reaching the city skyline in an instant.
"Even the ones from the sky ca, haha, this makes things even easier."
Zhang Xiaoman, instead of being alard, was pleased, imdiately facing the sky-bound group of monsters.
This was a flock of birds attacked by the Crimson Light, no less imposing than the Desert Worm army on the Moon.
Unfortunately, not to ntion these ordinary Mutants, even if real Alien Species Desert Worms ca, Zhang Xiaoman could easily annihilate them with his current strength.
Raising his hand slightly, a Sword Shadow appeared in the void.
In the blink of an eye, a completely black treasure sword appeared in his hand.
"Whoa, kid, using this against those little birds? Are you serious?"
Ni Yang’s astonished voice ca through.
Zhang Xiaoman remained calm and said:
"Weapons are ant to be used, and besides, I don’t want to waste ti on these guys."
As soon as he finished speaking, he extended the black treasure sword in his hand, and bolts of lightning began to gather on the blade.
"Thunderbolt!"
Zhang Xiaoman’s eyes glead with Golden Light as the treasure sword vibrated violently.
The clouds had sohow spread across the entire sky, blocking even the red moonlight from shining through.
This is the Purple Cloud Divine Sword!
After being restored by Ore, the sword had been reborn.
Now, while regaining certain sharpness, the Purple Cloud Divine Sword had acquired the ability to summon thunder and lightning.
"Rumble!!"
A deafening thunder echoed through the sky, akin to a dragon’s roar from the nine heavens.
The next mont, boundless lightning surged from the clouds, sweeping towards the mutant monster birds in the sky like a tidal wave.
It was as if the entire world turned silver-white at that mont, everything becoming silent, with the thunderous roar engulfing the heavens and earth.
In an instant, the monster birds turned to ash, unable even to let out a single cry before being erased from this world.
"Rumble, rumble, rumble!!"
The lightning continued to rampage until finally stopping after a full minute.
The clouds dispersed, the scarlet moonlight shone in once again, and everything seed to return to its previous state.
Yet, between heaven and earth, the vast flock of birds was gone, as if they had never appeared.
PS: Happy New Year to everyone!
