Chapter 561: Chapter 373: Catastrophe Ends, Hegemons’ Meeting!

The catastrophe of the raging tides was still ongoing, having lasted for over three months now.

Fang You had no way of knowing the current situation in other Great Domains, but the situation in the Falling Star Pit had gradually stabilized.

With reinforcements from two Top Mercenary Groups and several Six Senses joining, the Oasis, which had been on the verge of danger, suddenly became as secure as a fortress. The strong ones of the Oasis closely cooperated with the mercenaries to repel wave after wave of invading Mysterious Evil tides.

Of course, this was also thanks to the guarantee and supervision of the Blazefire Commerce Guild; otherwise, the Oasis would hardly be at ease with these mercenary groups whose high-end powers were far superior to their own.

Following the Black Stone Alliance, the City of Sword Flower, the Scorched Flame Oasis, the Wave City-State, and other Great Oases successively put up commissions and received reinforcements spearheaded by the Blazefire Commerce Guild.

By now, it was uncertain when the disaster would cease, but for the various Oases, the most significant crisis had passed.

Not all Oases had put up commissions, though.

The Great Oasis of the White Tower had no need for external assistance, and the elite Oasis of the Holy Serpent Society was another matter—Fang You neither sought them out nor could he find them.

—Elite Oases rarely traded with the outside world, making them naturally difficult to find, and even Thousand Faces could not locate them. That said, it also had to do with Thousand Faces’ focus not being on this matter.

"But saying that the situation is stable applies only to the Great Oases at this level, those innumerable and insignificant small Oases are just..."

He shook his head.

It’s already hard enough to find elite Oases, let alone the inconspicuous small ones.

At the beginning, their airship rescue mission only lasted a while before ending because these small Oases could no longer be found.

"This is a natural disaster, a catastrophe from the Ghastly Realm!"

"Under such a disaster, ordinary Oases are like tender grass, struggling to survive but ultimately shattered by the unstoppable and overwhelming calamity."

"Only Great Oases have the strength to resist, and only super Oases can be stable, but does that mean super powers can definitely be stable? What if one day, some terrifying cataclysm descends, could my Blazefire Commerce Guild, Blue Star, be as powerless as those small Oases right now?"

Too insignificant.

Not powerful enough.

Fang You shook his head, took out a slightly dim God Crystal from Heaven’s Net hand, and drew the power of the world to cascade down upon him. He sat like a meditator under a waterfall, letting the surging power wash over and pour into him, closing his eyes to refine these divine factors, and began today’s cultivation session.

...

...

The power of the disaster was no longer growing, and at the same time, Thousand Faces, who had been undercover in the Evil God’s camp for months, sent back a message.

"The Scarlet Emperor has pulled away several tribes deployed along the blockade line, and the blockade level of several entrances and exits has significantly decreased. Simultaneously, the existences of the Scarlet Emperor, the Flesh King, and the Blackwing Myth also seem to have left the blockade zone."

"The latter cannot be confirmed, and the possibility of a trap cannot be ruled out."

Indeed, the Scarlet Emperor had been blockading Blue Star for half a year now; it wasn’t impossible that he was getting restless and wanted to test the waters.

It could also be that these minions of the Evil God had encountered more pressing matters.

Can’t say for sure.

Trap or not, it’s a fifty-fifty shot.

"Should I try it or not?"

"Although I don’t need to go through these passages, standing by indifferently while watching the Scarlet Emperor’s performance seems somewhat impolite."

His thought was but a fleeting one, and whether to try it or not was just a minor matter.

Letting Thousand Faces continue to gather intelligence, Fang You closed his eyes and resumed cultivation.

Cultivation knows no day or night.

Time passed exceedingly fast while in the state of cultivation, and as he slowly condensed divine factors, his physique, spirit, and divine consciousness continued to grow, making this wonderful feeling even more intoxicating.

He was clearly not in a state of sleep, able to distinctly feel the passage of time, yet he still had the illusion that half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

No wonder, despite their lengthy lifespans, legendary beings seldom make appearances and only leave behind tales that could be either true or fabricated among the mundane world.

For veteran legendary beings, it was not uncommon to seclude themselves for years or even decades.

Fang You of course would not—still young, he hadn’t been in ’complete immersion cultivation’ for that half-month; he would occasionally wake up to deal with affairs filtered by Xiao Huan, or practice skills.

Skill cultivation was much harder; leveling up with cheats was anything but easy, and to say "My strength comes entirely from my own effort" would not be an exaggeration.

But hard or not, he had to train. Both foundational ranks and skill prowess needed to be prioritized and strengthened.

And the cultivation of both did not conflict at all.

Mythical cultivation requires time, relying on pure time and resources to gradually accumulate divine factors. Skill cultivation, on the other hand, is an instant matter, but it consumes a lot of physical strength, life energy, and mental power.

Fang You would often use skill cultivation cards or practice legendary skills like ’Tree of Life’ by himself. When he had expended over half of his energy, he would switch to mythical cultivation, grinding out divine factors while recovering his physical energy. After recovering to about eighty or ninety percent, he would again engage in skill cultivation.

Repeating this cycle, he found himself getting quite used to it.

On the panel, the skill’s status of ’Not Yet Entered the Door’ visibly began to grow; the ’Tree of Life’, which he used most frequently, had now been cultivated to [Not Yet Entered the Door: 60%], a promising future beckoned.

Suddenly,

"Booming—"

A thunderous blast sounded, but its origin was not from Blue Star, but from the Ghastly Realm, from deeper within the Ghastly Realm, a place beyond speculation.

In Blue Star, aside from the sudden thunder, there was not much change. The sky was blue, the grass green, the waters clear, but when Fang You arrived at Sparkfire Oasis, he was dumbstruck.
