Chapter 1828 - 6: The Ancient Hill Trembles—Whose Magic Theory Is This? (Part 2)

"Forget about those trapped in the Seventh Realm Mountain, we’re trapped ourselves!""Martial Artist, shut up! If you don’t understand the situation, don’t speak. Can you use your fists to punch a path through the mountain?"

"Damn it, it’s all because of you incompetent fools. Why didn’t you reinforce the mountain path and array more solidly?!"

In times of crisis, one’s true nature is revealed.

After the incident at Stacked Realm Mountain, the manpower configuration at Tao Yang Base was lacking in some key positions, while others were overstaffed.

Moreover, since this era is characterized by multiple forces working together, rather than just the Ancient Hill and the Red Star Empire, personnel coordination has become correspondingly difficult.

Martial Artists of the Ancient Kingdom Alliance began shouting useless, while technicians were overwhelmed and criticized, turning the Intermediate Hall into chaos.

Qiu Zishan was working alongside members of the Ancient Hill but seemed somewhat flustered. Gu Ming’s Mystical Mechanism Bureau was competent but didn’t intend to cooperate with others, seemingly planning something.

Seeing the situation deteriorating, Mr. Zhao couldn’t help but intervene.

"Enough, everyone shut up!"

A roar echoed in the hall, an ancient Dragon Roar emanating from beside Zhao Xing.

All other voices were drowned out, and everyone involuntarily looked towards Zhao Xing.

The Void Grassman intervened.

Tao Yang Base had no Reincarnation Realm, but there were many Tao Domain Realm individuals, almost exclusively.

Yet they were all forcibly suppressed by Zhao Xing’s Void Grassman.

Even Gu Ming, in the Life and Death Dao Domain Realm, couldn’t help but twitch his neck, feeling that the Wuliang matrix within his body was operating less smoothly.

"I am the First-level Sea Communication Envoy. With the current emergency, according to Empire regulations, I automatically become the highest officer of Tao Yang Star Land. Does anyone object?"

There are regulations, but whether they can be enforced depends on the situation. From the perspective of official duties, Gu Ming, Qiu Zishan, and the three chief officials of the Ancient Kingdom Alliance could all disagree.

"I disagree. You just arrived, and you don’t understand anything..." A martial artist of the Life and Death Dao Domain Realm from the Ancient Country Alliance voiced opposition.

"Roar~"

The Void Grassman opened its black mouth, a black fissure appearing beside the martial artist, directly devouring him.

The opposition abruptly ceased.

Gu Ming’s eyes flashed with surprise, while Qiu Zishan paused momentarily.

The other two chief officials seemed yet to recover.

But no one dared to speak further.

Seeing everyone silent, Zhao Xing spoke:

"Things aren’t as bad as they seem, Lord Qiu. Share some good news."

Qiu Zishan hadn’t reacted yet, but Gu Ming did: "The good news is, we can still communicate with Bishui Base, located between the Sixth and Fifth Boundary Mountains."

"I already sent a message over there, and Emperor Bishui should receive it within three World Star Days."

Qiu Zishan then recovered: "There’s hope of repairing the Teleportation Array, as long as it doesn’t suffer further collisions."

"The Star Land itself is unaffected; what is affected is the ring land equipped with the Teleportation Array."

"There are no casualties in the Tuo Ye Army." A martial artist carrying a golden snake sword spoke. "Including the outer patrol, only a few are injured."

Zhao Xing glanced at the person, identifying him as ’Zhou Ze,’ a member of the Ancient Country Alliance, practiced the Da Zhou Heavenly Sword Technique, and was one of those leading the Tao Yang Tuo Ye Army.

In terms of individual quality, the people of Tao Yang Star Land are outstanding; the challenge is a lack of unity.

If they were a mere rabble, Zhao Xing wouldn’t have stepped up either and would have sought ways to leave, which would be the sensible action.

Yet now, he sensed there was still hope for salvaging the situation.

"Everyone."

"The situation isn’t as dire as we thought." Zhao Xing stated, "At least Emperor Bishui can receive the message. At least we are stranded in Tao Yang Star Land and not in the Boundary Mountain."

"The Teleportation Array has potential for repair."

"Our retreat and survival environment are secured."

"So why are we panicking?"

Everyone pondered for a moment, realizing the truth in his words, and instinctively nodded.

At this moment, Zhao Xing had already utilized Spiritual Great Divine Power to amplify their confidence through his speech.

"We can’t sit idle and do nothing. Everyone who came to explore the Desolate Domain is not faint-hearted or timid."

"Since there are issues, we’ll resolve them one by one."

"Mr. Gu, you begin by outlining the problems we currently face."

Gu Ming pointed to the Star Mirror projection:

"Firstly, it’s the issue of positioning."

Everyone immediately looked at the star map filled with debris, star land, and small angular peaks.

In the Cosmic Void, with no distinction between up, down, left, right, it was the Minister of Agriculture from the Earth Advantage Sect who, using Extreme Land theory, defined these directions.

The Heavenly Time Sect’s Star Positioning Technique and the Self Sect’s Qi Theory established the directions of east, south, west, and north.

According to commonly used methods, everyone could accurately find directions while operating in the Cosmic Territory.

But with part of the Boundary Mountain collapsing and the ejection of angular peaks, many of the fixed star points were shattered and displaced, leaving everyone unable to confirm positions. Leaving Tao Yang Star Land led to being blind, unable to do anything.

"Lord Qiu, is it possible to use Earth Communication Skill to confirm positions?" Zhao Xing asked.

Qiu Zishan shook his head: "No."

"There are too many fragments from Stacked Realm Mountain, the original earth vein fluctuations were unique and traceable, but now they are all the same."

"We can’t use such a method to locate."

As for Qi Theory, it doesn’t work either, because Sea Passage is in the Desolate Domain where Spiritual Energy distribution is chaotic.

In other words, the collapse of Boundary Mountain has resulted in a Starry Sky maze.

The key is that Stacked Realm Mountain itself also has constantly growing characteristics, making wandering blindly very dangerous.
