Chapter 695: Chapter 384: Through the Ages, Things and People Change, All Comes to an End!_2
Otherwise, even if that Tier Seven anomaly only recovers thirty percent of its power, the entire Martial Arts World will cease to exist.
"Yao Yao has already done her utmost. Without my Divine-level Talent, I might not have done better than her."
Lu Yuan extended his Divine Thought, once more meticulously scanning every corner of the Solar System, yet he still couldn’t sense the presence of Tao Yaoyao.
This made his mood grow heavier, with a vague sense of foreboding.
"Could it be that Yao Yao has perished?"
Lu Yuan’s heart trembled, and the scene of the farewell between them years ago involuntarily appeared in his mind.
On Mount Emei, peach blossoms were in full bloom.
The teary-eyed girl cried as she told Lu Yuan that she would wait for his return no matter if it was one hundred, one thousand, or ten thousand years.
Yet countless long years have passed in a flash.
When he returned to where they parted, he found that everything had long since changed.
"Since I ended the simulation back then, ten thousand years have passed in the Martial Arts World, and the Tier Five Fierce Sun only has a lifespan of several thousand years."
"Moreover, Yao Yao’s Origin was depleted. Even if she had barely survived the battle back then, she couldn’t have lived until now."
Lu Yuan’s expression was grim, with a trace of guilt in his heart.
If anything were to happen to Yao Yao, then all the dark creatures in this world would bury themselves alongside her!
"Wait, why have both Jiang Yue and the aura of that Tier Seven anomaly disappeared?"
Lu Yuan’s heart suddenly stirred, as if he sensed something.
As the Invincible King, his powerful Divine Thought could envelop the entire Star Domain in an instant.
However, in his perception.
Although many alienated and mutated eerie creatures remained in this realm, the traces of that Tier Seven anomaly’s existence were never seen.
Furthermore.
Even the Ancient Palace on the Moon, as well as the girl sleeping in the Ice Coffin, had vanished without a trace, as if they had evaporated from this world.
"It seems that something has happened in the Martial Arts World that I am unaware of."
Thinking of this.
Lu Yuan took a step forward, and like traversing space-time, he instantly appeared in a survivor base on Blue Star.
Jiangnan Base City.
One of the only nine remaining bases of humanity.
Though called a base, it was actually a giant city with a population of tens of millions.
The Ancient Array at the city center upheld a barrier of light, enveloping the entire base within.
These arrays were cleverly arranged, with their runes shining brightly.
They could fend off the invasion of eerie creatures while blocking out most of the Dark Energy radiation.
And as the power of the arrays circulated.
There was a sense of weight and vicissitude that only years of history could bestow, obviously related to the Ancient Qi Refining Civilization.
If Lu Yuan guessed correctly, this should be Jiang Yue’s handiwork.
But even so.
The energy radiation of a Tier Seven anomaly could never be completely blocked by just an Ancient Grand Array.
In the outer regions of the base city, many survivors were still experiencing various degrees of mutation.
Their bodies were deformed, limbs twisted, their bodies plagued with diseases, and their sanity teetered between madness and clarity, constantly on the verge of losing control.
It could be said.
Every heavily mutated individual was a mobile pathogen and a ticking time bomb.
They lived like rats in the sewers, hiding in the furthest peripheral edge of the base, scavenging to survive.
Aside from constantly guarding against attacks by eerie creatures, they had to hide their whereabouts.
Otherwise, if discovered by the Dawn Church’s Guard Army, their fate would be no better than becoming food for anomalies.
In a certain abandoned and filthy sewer, the air was incredibly foul, suffocating to a normal person within moments, even creatures like rats and lizards would not stay long.
Especially since such a damp and dirty environment was naturally a hotbed for germs to thrive.
Yet Lu Yuan used his Divine Thought to sweep through, discovering numerous tents made of wood and ragged fabric situated deep in the underground sewers.
Within one tent, a heart-wrenching cough echoed, as if to cough out the heart itself.
A deformed, emaciated old man was curled up on a plank, clutching himself tightly, as if enduring unbearable pain.
Beside him, a five or six-year-old boy with bulging eyes and a noticeably oversized head for his age.
Was flailing helplessly at the old man’s back, trying to ease his pain.
"Grandfather, are you alright?"
"You haven’t eaten for two days. I still have a piece of dried lizard, you should eat it quickly."
The little boy took out a piece of dried lizard, his voice tinged with tears as he spoke.
"Hong’Er, Grandfather is about to die, there’s no need to waste food."
"You should leave, take this token to Martial Extreme City, they will protect all school disciples, maybe they can even cure your illness."
The emaciated old man coughed up two mouthfuls of black blood, forcibly supporting his body, retrieving a token from his pocket and handing it to the boy.
The token was the size of half an adult’s palm, made entirely of metal, its surface etched with a complex pattern and the character ’Martial’.
On the reverse side of the token was the character ’Extreme’, together forming ’Martial Extreme’.
Although the emaciated old man was covered in grime, the token was as pristine as ever, showing his high regard for it.
Seeing the token, Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and immediately appeared in the sewer.
"Are you a disciple of my Martial Extreme Daoist School?"
Lu Yuan said in a deep voice.
Both the old man and the little boy were startled by the sudden appearance of a living person.
But when the emaciated old man clearly saw Lu Yuan’s face, he was shaken to his core, his eyes widened as if witnessing something unbelievable.
