From doomsday survival to fast-forward daily life

"Are they in trouble?" Tian Yu asked.

"It's like it suddenly stopped halfway."

"When did it stop?" Tian Yu asked carefully.

"Less than five minutes." Yuzu looked down at the watch on her hand, then looked at the time recorded in the video during the observation.

"To be exact, it was three minutes and forty-six seconds ago. Their team suddenly stopped, and then I told you the news."

Tian Yu glanced at Xu Lu, and from the other's expression, she knew that they might have thought of the same thing.

"We have encountered something unexpected. Let's meet up at the city gate."

The two cleaned up the scene and walked out.

"What do you think?" Xu Lu asked first.

Tian Yu lowered his head, unable to see the expression on his face: "Could it be such a coincidence?"

She seemed to be asking Xu Lu, or herself: "There aren't so many coincidences, for example..."

……

"What?" Yuzu's voice changed. "You mean you successfully activated the magic circle that absorbs divine power, and actually absorbed the power?"

"Yes," Tian Yu nodded in affirmation, "I think this has something to do with General Li and Tian Lei."

"I'm a little confused," Yuzu didn't understand for a moment, "The success of the magic circle to absorb divine power should mean that there are gods in this world. What does this have to do with them?"

"I found this among the things left behind by Qingyang." Tian Yu laid out maps one by one.

"After comparing with Xu Lu, we both agreed that the places where Qingyang saw the city of Yu undergoing renovations were these few spots," Tian Yu pointed, "when connected together, they should form a magic circle."

"They serve as several important nodes, but when I look at it as a whole, I find that it is somewhat different from the formations in this world."

"So we decided to do an experiment to see if the magic array from the magic world can work in this world. We also suspect that this magic array in Yucheng was left by Tian Lei."

She explained further: "Xu Lu is using his own body now, so he can't do anything, and I only know one magic circle."

"According to our deduction, magic is a formula. Although it may not work in this world, it will work."

"Immediately afterwards, when the ritual of drawing divine power began, I clearly felt it drawing power from an unknown place."

"I immediately stopped collecting the information, and at that moment your message came through. Isn't that a coincidence?"

From the very beginning, everyone knew that this world had its own special features, for example, there was no such thing as belief in gods.

Then, could everything Tian Lei did here also be to take advantage of this loophole? What exactly is the purpose of that formation? Tian Lei must have left him here for a reason.

"I wonder if the divine power I absorbed could have come from the Li Family Army or even General Li himself? Do you remember that the people of Yucheng worshipped the Li Family Army as gods and praised General Li highly. In their eyes, General Li was more like a spiritual totem."

Xu Lu added: "Those locations at the nodes of the magic circle are mostly places where information is circulated and people are densely populated. The stories told by the storytellers we followed before were almost the same, and some even went back to the government office. Could this be a coincidence?"

Youzi obviously has some trust in what the two say: "Make bold assumptions and verify them carefully."

She went on to say, "Since we don't know what the truth is, why not let in the person who knows the truth?"

"We call this catching a turtle in a jar." Xu Lu said with a smile.

"They have stopped halfway now, and their arrival in Yucheng will inevitably be delayed, which is just enough time for us to make some arrangements." Zhiling and Mo Zhi also agreed to this.

……

General Li only felt that the irresistible suction force was draining his strength, but fortunately it stopped after a short while. Even so, he still felt extremely weak.

A master of the heavenly realm actually encountered such a situation. Not only was he surprised, but even the deputy generals and soldiers around him were a little surprised.

"No problem," General Li stood up, still in high spirits, "Let's continue marching."

The mysterious force came and went quickly, and just when he thought he was finally being targeted by the Heavenly Dao, the suction disappeared.

He knew very well what had happened to him. The shackles of heaven in Yucheng were still different from those in the capital. The formation towers in the capital were knocked down, the nodes were destroyed, and even the Human Emperor died at his hands.

The Heavenly Dao barrier of the capital city had indeed dissipated, but the situation in Yu City was due to another reason.

He always remembered the instructions given by Tian Lei when he gave him the formation.

"You mean you want to use other formations to replace the power of the Heavenly Dao Shortcut?" Tian Lei sneered when he heard this idea for the first time.

"That is almost impossible. Under the supervision of Heavenly Dao and the Human Emperor, no matter in Yucheng or other places, such things that violate Heavenly Dao rules are allowed to happen."

"If you use this Heavenly Dao barrier for your own benefit, the situation will be different..."

General Li was still young at that time. Even though he knew that what Tian Lei said was just instigation, he still couldn't resist the temptation.

The Heavenly Dao barrier of Yucheng has disappeared from the sky above the city for a long time, but it has merely moved to the ground below.

When General Li got the formation from Tian Lei, he wrote a letter to Qingyang. Even the other party could not see any clues about the formation and only advised him: Tian Lei is definitely not trustworthy.

General Li knew very well that trusting Tian Lei would bring trouble, but he couldn't wait.

His grandfather and his father had both stood at the top of the Heavenly Dao, but neither of them could break the shackles. Now it was his turn. He was hailed as the most unrivaled genius in the Li family for thousands of years. He was young and full of vigor, and he wanted to achieve the glory that his fathers had not achieved.
