The next morning.

Fang Yu slowly opened his eyes.

The power of the Divine Dragon had stabilized.

"Dragon Soul, how exactly do I cultivate it?" Fang Yu muttered to himself.

Ever since he learned about the Dragon Soul Power last time, Fang Yu had been pondering over it.

Even entering the Dragon Sleep Sacred Land yielded no clues.

The Dragon Soul Power requires gradual exploration.

But now a new problem had arisen—

"Alas, this bloodline of mine probably won't yield much in the Dragon Sleep Sacred Land, and I'll just get sneered at. Better to honestly enhance my power."

Fang Yu slowly got up.

The problem is, how do I increase my strength?

Should I enter the Slow Turning Secret Realm again?

The last seven days were equivalent to sixteen hundred years.

If I go in for another seven days, it could very well be tens of thousands of years!

Fang Yu really isn't confident he can withstand tens of thousands of years...

The secret realm behind Tiandu Mountain has limited heavenly treasures. To collect enough Life Extension Grass, it requires quite a bit of time, besides the need for refinement. All this takes time and energy.

Doing it alone is extremely difficult.

With a team, cultivation becomes harder.

Just like those tribes returning from the secret realm, resources get divided, and the progress naturally becomes limited.

"Seems like I need to quickly find the secret of the Dragon Soul... I've already mastered the basic cultivation method of the Divine Dragon Technique. Clearly, the Dragon Soul level is the next stage of cultivation in the Divine Dragon Technique."

Thinking to this point, Fang Yu couldn't help but sigh and say, "Divine Dragon Technique, you really surprise me... But, I believe soon, I will uncover all your mysteries. Yesterday was the closest I have been to mom. It won't be long before I can stand in front of you."

Boom.

Boom boom—

Suddenly, the sound of a violent explosion rang out.

Fang Yu couldn't help but pause, laughing, "Looks like another time-based secret realm explosion overlap happened. Let's go see... maybe something will emerge from the time-based secret realm."

...

On the other side.

Near the suburban direction of Jiangzhou, close to Haijiang, two buildings instantly collapsed.

Turning into a pile of ruins.

Scattered among the ruins were all kinds of herbs, plants, and animals.

Many nearby mutants rushed to snatch them.

"Quick, quick, everybody hurry, or else those big forces will monopolize it again!" The crowd surged forward, disregarding any danger, clawing through the ruins, vying for treasures among the debris.

"Yes, hurry, hurry..."

A group of people started a frantic scramble.

Just when everyone was happily grabbing, a furious voice came—

"Get out of here!"

Boom!

A huge rock crashed in from the side, landing directly in the midst of the ruins.

A thunderous noise shook the surroundings.

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

They turned back to look.

A flamboyantly dressed woman, accompanied by three sturdy men, looked at them with cold eyes.

"Out!"

One word jumped from the woman's lips, scaring the crowd to flee in all directions.

One of the robust men said, "Sister Yue, they've all run off; let's hurry and pick some valuable items."

"Hmm. Let's move."

The three sturdy men rushed into the ruins, focusing on picking large-sized ginseng herbs.

Soon their backpacks were full.

"Sister Yue, let's go... Leave the rest for them to collect."

The woman nodded, saying, "Right now, we must quickly find people with the Ten Great Bloodlines. The world is chaotic now, we must join one side. The Ten Great Bloodlines are the strongest; only by joining them can we ensure safety, and we can also follow them to cultivate properly."

"Sister Yue is right. I've heard that people from the Ten Great Bloodlines are expanding their strength, recruiting soldiers everywhere. Even if we can't become core disciples, being a guard is better than living in fear in this turbulent world," said another robust man.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Sister Yue awakened the Sharp-Hearing Ear, able to hear from far away. With such skill, anyone will want her. During these months of secret realm explosions, I haven't seen a superpower user more formidable than Sister Yue's ability. Besides, Sister Yue's body technique is also strong."

The robust men kept boasting.

The woman suddenly raised her hand and said, "Shh—someone's coming."

Her ears twitched.

The eyes of the three robust men moved slightly.

The reason they were so safe was largely dependent on this woman's awakened ability.

"Let's move..."

"No, it's just one person, and he lacks the special aura of a cultivator," the woman said.

Before long.

At the end of the road, a man slowly approached, his face calm, looking around as if he were a tourist.

The woman's eyes lit up, she couldn't help but smile.

As the man walked closer, the woman smiled faintly and greeted, "Fang Yu, what a coincidence, we meet again."

Indeed.

The approaching person was Fang Yu.

Fang Yu looked up and saw in front of him a woman with a leather jacket, her hair flowing, and her face charming. It was his old classmate—

"Long Xinyue?"

Long Xinyue crossed her arms and laughed: "What a coincidence."

The three strong men behind her were puzzled.

"Sister Yue, who is this person?"

Long Xinyue chuckled and didn't answer the strong men behind her. Instead, she looked at Fang Yu and said, "Fang Yu, what a narrow path for enemies. Thanks to you... my husband's company went bankrupt. My classmates ignore me now. But... I don't hate you... It's truly Heaven's eye, since the end of the world has come. Companies, wealth, it all turned into smoke. How about it... how have you been lately?"

Upon hearing this dialogue.

The strong men in the back widened their eyes in realization. The man in front of them was the same old classmate responsible for Long Xinyue's estrangement at a gathering, leading to her husband's lawsuit for divorce.

Back once at the class reunion, Long Xinyue originally wanted to use the chance to avenge Fang Yu but ended up being humiliated by Fang Yu.

Because of that incident, Long Xinyue was kicked out of her house by her husband, and her old classmates distanced themselves from her.

...

Fang Yu chuckled and said, "I've been doing alright, it's just too chaotic out there... Where did you come from? How about coming to my place, I'll cover you all, after all, we're old classmates. There's no one in Jiangzhou who hasn't heard of Fang Yu's name!"

"..." The three robust men were dumbfounded.

Long Xinyue was also bewildered, laughing, "The old Fang Yu roaming Jiangzhou, becoming someone feared, indeed scared people, many in the underworld knew you. I found out later about your reputation. But... today is not like yesterday; the end of the world has come. Your old ways, how can they cover us?"

"You've never heard of Fang Yu's name?" Fang Yu couldn't help but wonder.

The title of Emperor Yu should have spread throughout all of Jiangzhou by now!

At this time.

One of the big men behind said, "Enough talk! We just returned from the United States with Sister Yue. I've heard your name, aren't you the Jiangzhou Iron Fist King. Honestly, now even any random cultivator can smash you. Why act tough?"

Fang Yu suddenly understood, saying, "So you went to the United States; I was wondering why there was no news from you afterward... truly sorry about that, I wasn't intending to at that party. It's good to be back. I heard that the secret realm explosions abroad are even more chaotic, racial discrimination is severe, could end up getting shot in the head."

Upon hearing this.

Long Xinyue indifferently said, "You're not wrong, it's indeed more chaotic abroad. But... you're now like a clay Bodhisattva crossing a river, unable to protect yourself yet want to cover us? Hehe—"

"What do you mean?"

"Fang Yu, here's the deal, you kneel in front of me, break an arm, and I can let bygones be bygones. Considering our being old classmates, I'll take you with me to find the Ten Great Bloodlines. With their skills, protecting you won't be difficult! How about it?" Long Xinyue's eyes became firm and resolute.
