Chapter 1061 - 952: Tell Your Story
Very soon, Liang Ya realized what the storm that Duan Gujin had just mentioned was all about.Fortunately, Duan Gujin had already inserted many long tree trunks into the ground to protect the two of them, preventing them from being blown away by the storm.
The place where they were was an open and flat sandy area, and once the storm hit, they had no way to avoid it.
The storm raged for a while before dissipating.
"This is the first time I've heard of storms in the Black Hole World, it completely overturns my previous understanding!"
Liang Ya remarked with emotion.
Duan Gujin's eyes flashed as he said, "This sudden anomaly in this place is likely related to the Otherworld! Generally speaking, when a strong storm suddenly occurs in a place, it indicates a collision between the Rule Power of that place and another! When two different Rule Powers collide, strong storms often occur!"
"You make a lot of sense!"
Upon hearing this, Liang Ya took a deep breath, knowing that Duan Gujin was very much correct.
"So you mean that the Otherworld has decided to launch an attack on the Black Hole World in advance?"
Liang Ya pondered for a moment and suddenly felt a sense of fear.
"Very likely!"
Duan Gujin nodded vigorously in response.
"That would be a big problem!"
Liang Ya took a deep breath. As the Qiankun Saint of the Qiankun Heavenly Court, he had already gathered a lot of intelligence from the elders of the Heavenly Court. He knew that the Otherworld was soon going to attack the Divine World or the Immortal Domain.
He also knew that in the previous life, the Otherworld first attacked the Ten Thousand Demon World and the Black Hole World.
After the Otherworld destroyed the Ten Thousand Demon World and the Black Hole World, they then proceeded to attack the Immortal Domain.
Because the Immortal Domain was powerful, they managed to hold off the Otherworld's attack and even engaged in a protracted battle with them.
However, the experts from the Divine World and the Immortal Domain believed that in this lifetime, the leader of the Otherworld, Zhao Wuji, is very likely not to proceed as in the previous life; that is, they will not attack the Ten Thousand Demon World and the Black Hole World first. Once those forces are destroyed, they would then turn to attack the Divine World and the Immortal Domain.
The experts from the Divine World and the Immortal Domain couldn't accurately determine when the Otherworld would attack or from where they would launch the attack, so they could only prepare various defenses to prevent an invasion by the Otherworld.
And now, the anomaly in the Black Hole World might be a sign of an invasion by the Otherworld, or it might simply be a local anomaly.
To uncover the truth, one must enter and investigate the area.
The experts from the Divine World or the Immortal Domain couldn't constantly remain in the Black Hole World to search for anomalies, so it's understandable that they didn't notice this anomaly.
Duan Gujin did not know that just after the storm appeared, the elder responsible for the test noticed something wrong with the phenomenon and quickly sent a communication to the Ascension Academy elders, requesting them to dispatch reinforcements to the area.
After receiving the elder's message, the Ascension Academy elders convened a meeting and immediately decided to send reinforcements to the area.
Meanwhile, Duan Gujin and Liang Ya hid on the ground to avoid the storm's destruction.
They didn't leave immediately as they saw that the dark clouds above remained and that lightning occasionally flickered from them.
"I was right!"
Seeing the lightning, Liang Ya smiled faintly.
"You were more insightful!"
Duan Gujin felt a bit embarrassed as he hadn't expected the dark clouds in the sky to produce lightning; he hadn't noticed any signs of lightning before, so he assumed there wouldn't be any, only to realize now that he had overlooked it.
Duan Gujin's eyes twinkled as he thought of a possibility.
"It seems that the Rule Power of the Otherworld and that of the Black Hole World are getting closer to each other, only then will the dark clouds here produce lightning!"
Seeing that the dark clouds in the sky had not yet dispersed, he frowned.
After a while, he noticed a new message on his Communication Token. He checked it and exhaled a deep breath.
The message informed him that this task was canceled, and Ascension Academy would send experts to rescue them, asking them to wait for reinforcements.
He had a flash of inspiration and immediately took out his sensing nameplate from the storage ring.
He found that the instructions on the sensing nameplate were shuddering violently, making it impossible to determine a direction.
"Looks like we'll have to wait for the reinforcements from Ascension Academy here!"
Duan Gujin said to Liang Ya.
Liang Ya replied, "I'm afraid even when the Ascension Academy's reinforcements arrive, they might not be able to reach us here. We can't rely on them; we have to save ourselves! Once my body is fully recovered, I'll take you out of here!"
"Thank you so much!"
Duan Gujin said.
"You saved me earlier, so it's only right I save you in return! My name is Liang Ya, I'm thirty-seven years old! What about you, what's your name and how old are you?"
Liang Ya asked.
"My name is Duan Gujin, I'm twenty years old!"
Duan Gujin replied.
"So you're only twenty today, you must be at the Martial Saint Realm by now, right?"
"Yes, I'm at the Martial Saint Third Level!"
Upon hearing this, Liang Ya exclaimed with emotion, "When I was your age, I hadn't even broken through to the Martial Saint Realm yet! Young brother, you need to work hard, I have high hopes for you. Are you interested in joining the Qiankun Heavenly Court? If you're interested, I can help!"
Liang Ya said.
"I haven't thought that far yet, I'm just a disciple of the Ascension Academy for now, I need to pass many tests to stay in the Divine World!"
Duan Gujin said.
"With your aptitude, you can definitely stay in the Divine World. Those old folks there are too set in their ways!"
Liang Ya remarked with a sigh.
"I really don't know what those up above are thinking!"
Duan Gujin responded.
"This is my name tag, from now on you can use it to find me at the Qiankun Heavenly Court! I'm older than you, I can be your big brother!"
Liang Ya said.
"No need for you to be my big brother, we can be good friends!"
Duan Gujin laughed.
In his previous life, he had no connection with the Qiankun Heavenly Court and didn't know much about it.
"Alright, we can definitely be good friends!"
Liang Ya didn't insist further.
"Brother Liang, can you tell me who set you up? You almost became dinner for the Demon here!"
Duan Gujin noted that the dark clouds above showed no sign of dissipating, indicating to him and Liang Ya that they wouldn't be leaving anytime soon.
"Once I get back, I'm definitely going to take down that vile person!"
Recalling the scene of his betrayal, Liang Ya gritted his teeth in hatred.
"Brother Liang, I have some wine here, please share your story!"
Duan Gujin quickly took out some wine and roasted meat from his storage ring, and they began eating and drinking together.
Once they were full, Liang Ya began to tell his story.
