"Hum hum hum..." A burst of Dao Burning Sound suddenly resounded, instantly turning into a will in the minds of every player, as well as the ancient inhabitants and even He Yiming and Mu Xueying.
"You are qualified to survive, leave quickly! Otherwise..."
"Annihilation without mercy!"
...
Deep within the flood of chaos, a voice unexpectedly emerged, echoing in the minds of everyone present.
The meaning of these words was straightforward.
The calamity of this Primordial Flood acknowledged the strength of He Yiming and the players, allowing them to leave alive!
"And what about them?" He Yiming spoke indifferently, pointing at the ancient inhabitants.
"Insects of the lowest order, feeble creatures, must be annihilated!" The will, speaking in words that He Yiming and the players could understand, slowly conveyed.
"Hehe!" He Yiming chuckled immediately.
It was evident that this calamity of the Primordial Flood was a bully who was afraid of the strong, deeming that it was not easy to deal with him and the players, so it offered them a way out!
As for the helpless ancient inhabitants, they naturally had to be completely exterminated.
Heaven's Dao!
"Master He Yiming..." the youth with the broken horn raised his head, and like all the other ancient inhabitants, he looked towards He Yiming, looking at the over ten thousand disciples of the Flame Yellow Sect.
Regardless of what choice He Yiming made, none of the ancient inhabitants would harbor any resentment.
Having fought to this point, all the ancient inhabitants were already deeply grateful.
"Disciples, the calamity of the Primordial Flood wants us to abandon over five million lives!"
"Disciples, tell me loudly, what's your answer?"
...
He Yiming spoke calmly.
Mu Xueying also looked towards the players at this moment.
Mu Xueying was absolutely certain that if the ones standing here were geniuses from the Upper Realm or any normal cultivator, they would unhesitatingly choose to abandon the ancient inhabitants and ensure their own safety.
That would be the right choice.
However...
"Calamity of the Primordial Flood! Last year, I bought you a watch!!!" All the players simultaneously roared loudly, and with perfect synchronization, they made an international gesture!
Left arm horizontally, right arm vertically, over ten thousand middle fingers all raised in unison!
"You... go seek death!" The calamity of the Primordial Flood didn't understand the meaning behind the raised middle fingers, nor did it comprehend the phrase about buying a watch, but it instantly sensed the fierce will to fight within the players!
Therefore, the calamity of the Primordial Flood directly sealed off that pathway.
The flood of chaos didn't change its form again, it simply...
Unbeknownst to them, the number of water-form monsters grew larger and their attack frequency became faster!
Clearly, the calamity of the Primordial Flood might have abandoned its constant transformations and decided on a battle of attrition!
It was now a matter of seeing who could hold out longer!
"…¨~…" Mu Xueying was at a loss for words for a long time.
Mu Xueying realized that not only could she not see through He Yiming's disciples, she couldn't even understand them.
Previously, Wang Lufei had acted alone, saving two ancient inhabitants and involving everyone.
Yet, not a single person blamed Wang Lufei!
Now, facing this overwhelmingly powerful calamity of the Primordial Flood!
Every single one of He Yiming's disciples made the exact same choice!
To fight to the end!
Not for any benefits or opportunities, but for a pure determination, a quality that Mu Xueying couldn't find in any normal cultivator!
"They're truly your disciples... They're really similar to you, He Yiming!" Mu Xueying looked up, gazing at He Yiming's figure, unable to help but smile.
At the same time...
"Your sister, it'll take another 23 hours to connect? Poisonous!!!" Beef Noodle Soup put on the virtual helmet once again and looked at the time, directly spitting out blood.
"Ah, this Liang Yu guy is probably going crazy. 23 hours! Can he endure? Tsk tsk, this kid is really miserable!"
"Can't help it, let's go out for some hotpot. Ah, it's been so long since I've had it!"
...
Beef Noodle Soup promptly headed out...
At the same time...
Within the ancient era, within the Xuanwu Flower Palace...
"Master!!!"
Liang Yu looked at that half of a body, gradually transforming into a black-purple figure, and silently shed tears once again.
How much longer would he have to endure such tremendous pain? How much longer would he make his Master endure for his sake?
What was hateful was...
He himself, could do nothing at all!
"No!"
"Master risked his life for me!"
"How can I just watch like this?"
"I want to become as strong as Master! As earth-shattering as him!"
"So... I must cast aside all my values and principles. As long as I can become stronger, I'll use any means and methods necessary! I want to be just like Master, breaking free from the shackles of all traditions and established views!"
...
Liang Yu's thoughts churned, and the stronger he became, the more he looked at his Master's agonizing figure, the stronger his conviction grew!
And thus, the next moment...
"Xuanwu's Soar! Forge me... Liang!!!" Liang Yu let out a low roar, madly activating his Innate Power!
Initially, only scattered Xuanwu's Soars slowly lifted into the air, drifting towards Liang Yu.
But as time passed, more and more Xuanwu's Soars flew towards Liang Yu!
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
The immense essence power remaining within the Xuanwu's Soars was continuously crushed, compressed, condensed, then sucked into Liang Yu's body, turning into a portion of his strength!
With each breath, Liang Yu's strength continuously increased!
"Master, I finally understand why you brought me here... Unexpectedly, Master went to such lengths for me..." The stronger Liang Yu became, the greater his admiration for Beef Noodle Soup grew!
...
Time flowed like water, quietly passing.
One hour...
Two hours...
Three hours...
Ten hours!
When He Yiming opened his eyes again, he couldn't help but draw in a cold breath.
The scale of the calamity of the Primordial Flood had reached a level beyond belief!
The colossal flood that was forty thousand meters tall spun at high speed, swirling around He Yiming and the players.
And the number of water-form monsters had multiplied to the point where they formed a dense and almost uncountable mass, and their numbers were continuously increasing!
At this moment, all the players were fighting desperately, but each of them was exhausted and their vitality was pushed to the limit.
He Yiming scanned the area and saw that even Wang Lufei and Speed Puff Vegito were panting heavily and their faces were pale.
However, the calamity of the Primordial Flood was continuously gathering its strength, clearly waiting for an opportunity!
An opportunity to strike once the players were utterly fatigued and crush them all!
Many players had also figured this out, but there was no way to counter it.
The scale of the calamity of the Primordial Flood was simply too massive!
With enough power to wash away the entire land of the ancient era millions upon millions of miles away, even if just a tiny fraction of that power was gathered here, it would be impossible for the players to diminish it in the slightest no matter how they fought!
Another hour passed!
And then one incense stick, two incense sticks, three incense sticks!
At the time when there was only one incense stick remaining for the retreat of the calamity of the Primordial Flood...
The calamity of the Primordial Flood finally moved!
"Boom rumble rumble!!!" A terrifying rumbling sound shook the entire earth. The black-purple flood surged into the air, directly transforming into a colossal flood that was a hundred thousand meters tall!
Moreover, it erupted from all directions simultaneously, transforming into a tsunami that blotted out the sky and covered the earth as it soared into the air, carrying an aura that could crush everything as it thundered down!
"Damn it!"
The players were already exhausted at this point. After the water-form monsters suddenly ceased their attacks, they thought they could finally breathe a sigh of relief. However, they discovered that this calamity of the Primordial Flood had actually launched its most powerful assault in the final moments of the last incense stick!
"My god!"
"Such a massive tsunami?"
"Damn it, I'm almost out of energy!"
...
All the players laboriously lifted their heads, but their strength was futile.
This calamity of the Primordial Flood was actually so sinister, it had continuously dispatched countless water-form monsters to drain the players' strength. And just when all the players were exhausted, it finally launched an attack of unparalleled power!
Once this wave of colossal flood, a hundred thousand meters tall, descended, all the players would perish!
Once all the players were wiped out, this terrifying calamity of the Primordial Flood would instantly obliterate the entire city and its over five million ancient inhabitants!
At this critical moment!
He Yiming slowly stood up.
"Good job, my disciples!"
"From here on out, leave it to your Sect Master!!!"
