Ou Yangming’s gaze swept across the crowd, his icy gaze causing a chill to run down everyone’s spines.
“Are you willing to obey me?” Ou Yangming asked.
The crowd was startled and hurriedly kowtowed once more.
“Yes, we’re willing!”
No one dared to disobey Ou Yangming’s orders. Even if they were the governor’s loyal followers previously, they were completely obedient at the moment.
The governor was dead so what else could they do? If they angered this young fellow, they would lose their lives.
In the face of life and death, everyone chose to save their lives.
Even if they were unconvinced, they could only temporarily choose to compromise. After they were safe, they would think of a way to escape from this person.
Ou Yangming did not care about their thoughts. He did not need to care about what these people were thinking because he had a lot of methods to make them behave.
He smiled. This smile made these people’s hearts feel cold.
“Since that’s the case, I think you won’t mind me leaving something in your heads.” Ou Yangming’s smile was like a devil’s.
‘Leave something in our heads?’ Everyone was shocked. Soon, they realized that their bodies could not move at all.
‘What is he trying to do?’
Suddenly, everyone felt a huge wave of mental power enter their minds. No matter how hard they struggled, they could not get rid of this great mental power.
This power hovered in their minds for a moment. Everyone felt that a mark had appeared on their souls. It was as if a shackle had been imprinted on them, and this feeling was uncomfortable.
The mental power disappeared, and everyone collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
“Sir, what have you done to us?” A man in gorgeous clothes asked in horror.
“Nothing. In order to ensure your loyalty, I’ve just placed a restriction on your minds. As long as you obediently obey my orders, there won’t be any problems. If you’re dissatisfied with me…”
Ou Yangming did not continue speaking. His gaze turned toward a certain direction.
“Puff!” A person in the crowd suddenly vomited blood. His body shrunk bit by bit. His flesh melted and turned into pus. Finally, he disappeared.
“That’ll be your fate!” Ou Yangming said coldly.
A chill came over, and everyone’s hearts shivered. ‘What kind of frightening restriction is this?’
“Sir, we won’t dare…” Everyone was completely convinced this time.
After witnessing the terrifying scene just now, everyone did not dare to have any dissatisfaction with Ou Yangming. They did not want to end up like the person from before.
“Are you in charge of the Flame Ores?” Ou Yangming’s gaze focused on a person.
That person was startled and hurriedly answered, “Yes, sir. I’m in charge of the Flame Ores.”
He was secretly surprised that this mysterious powerhouse knew so much.
Ou Yangming chuckled. “Go and release all those people from the Great Wide World.”
“Yes, yes.”
Ou Yangming’s gaze turned to another person. This person wore a square hat and held a feather fan in his hand. He looked elegant but also had fear in his eyes. Seeing the young fellow looking in his direction, he hurriedly knelt on the ground.
“I’m Zhuang Bifan. Greetings, sir.”
Ou Yangming nodded slightly and said, “Go and prepare a good place in the city. I need to settle some people.”
“Yes, sir. I’ll go and prepare right away.” That person hurriedly stood up.
“Alright, all of you can leave.” Ou Yangming waved his hand.
After the group of people bowed, they hurriedly left.
The citizens of Daxia City did not know that in just half a day, the master of the city they lived in had changed.
Soon, the powerhouses from the Fifth World were arranged in a good place in the city, and the people from the Flames Mine were also released. At first, they did not dare to believe it. When they heard that it was Ou Yangming who saved them, all of them cried with gratitude.
As for the old man and the others, Ou Yangming arranged for them to be in the backyard of the Governor’s Residence.
The Governor’s Residence was definitely the best place in Daxia City. The core strength of the Daxia City had been controlled by Ou Yangming using the techniques he had obtained from Dao Xuanji, so there was no need for him to worry.
In the chaos above Daxia City.
The surroundings were filled with nothingness, and chaotic air currents filled the world.
Outside this protective barrier, only powerhouses above a half step to the Heavenly Rank could survive here. Ou Yangming had stayed here for 7 days and 7 nights.
These few days, he had gained a more comprehensive understanding of the chaotic world.
‘This is probably it.’ Ou Yangming gradually opened his eyes.
He was comprehending the final move of the Supreme Spear Principle, Nothing!
This move was not that simple. He had to personally experience it in the chaos before he had the chance to come into contact with it.
After 7 days, Ou Yangming returned to Daxia City once again and began his closed-door cultivation.
Time was limited, thus Ou Yangming had to rush to the Universe Graveyard as soon as possible.
If he could obtain the heart of the universe, he could open up a continent that was the same as the Great Wide World. At that time, all the living beings in the Great Wide World would still have a chance.
Ou Yangming could go to the Great Wide World and take them away. The premise was that he had to rush to the Great Wide World before it was completely destroyed, find the heart of the universe, and create the sixth world.
This hope was very small, and Ou Yangming did not have much hope. After all, to go to that place, one had to be at least at the Sixth Heaven. This was Xing Tian’s minimum requirement. According to Ou Yangming’s estimation, his strength was only around the Fifth Heaven of the Heavenly Rank
In the Mystic Yellow Continent, he was basically invincible but if he went to the heart of the universe, it would still be very dangerous.
Besides, Ou Yangming could not obtain the heart just by going there. If he did not have the strength, he would not be able to enter at all. Even if he was strong enough, he might not be able to snatch it away from others.
There were too many surprises. No one could be sure. Even Xing Tian did not understand that place.
There was only one plan for now. Ou Yangming had to fuse the laws of extermination and creation as soon as possible. He had to grasp the final move of the Supreme Spear Principle—Nothing.
This was also the most direct way to increase his strength.
Once his strength increased, everything would be easy.
After returning to the Governor’s Residence, Ou Yangming immediately began his closed-door cultivation.
Fortunately, Ou Yangming had a treasure like the Enlightenment Pavilion, so he entered it. After mastering the profound meaning of space-time, his use of the Enlightenment Pavilion deepened. This time, he once again changed the flow of time. Originally, the flow of time was 1:100, but the young fellow had used his ultimate profound meaning of space-time to adjust it to 1:1,000. In other words, a day outside would mean 3 years in the pavilion.
After doing all this, Ou Yangming found a futon and sat.
In his spiritual sea, 2 rays of light were mobilized by him.
One was the black profound meaning of extermination while the other was the golden profound meaning of creation.
Ou Yangming kept deducing in his mind, trying to find the point where the 2 profound could fuse.
Time flew by.
1 year, 2 years…
Ou Yangming did not know how long he had been cultivating, but he was patient enough to try it out bit by bit. He tried every possibility hundreds of times until he was sure it was impossible.
In the blink of an eye, 10 years had passed.
If others could see Ou Yangming’s spiritual sea at this moment, they would find that a small part of the black air current and the golden air current had merged.
After thousands of deductions, Ou Yangming finally found a point where the 2 profound meanings matched.
In his mind, every move in the Supreme Spear Principle appeared again.
Once, twice…
Finally, under Ou Yangming’s continuous deduction, he had grasped an embryonic form. The profound meanings of extermination and creation gradually fused, and he could feel his strength increasing explosively.
‘If there aren’t any problems, my current strength shouldn’t be much different from Senior Xing Tian’s…’ Ou Yangming walked out.
On this day, the cultivators of Daxia City suddenly discovered that the sky of the city was filled with fearsome power.
This power was like a sharp sword floating in everyone’s hearts.
Ou Yangming stopped, and the majestic power stabilized in the sky above the city.
Just like how Emperor Jun dealt with the Shanhai Continent, he had left behind his law powers.
Compared to Emperor Jun’s profound meaning of order, this power was even more violent, and its lethality was even more shocking. After laying these things down, Ou Yangming could go to the Universe Graveyard without worry. The fused profound meaning could easily kill a powerhouse at the First or Second Heaven like the Bai family’s great ancestor. Even the more powerful Third or Fourth Heaven powerhouses could also be blocked out.
As a result, Daxia City was like an iron wall.
Furthermore, the fused power of profound meanings filled Daxia City. Ou Yangming also believed that even if other Heavenly Rank powerhouses came here, they would not dare to stir up trouble.
After handing over control to Wutong, Ou Yangming entered the chaos alone.
The Universe Graveyard. He had to hurry there.
Otherwise, even if he obtained the heart of the universe and was lucky enough to evolve the poisonous pill’s world into another great world, he would inevitably have some regrets. Only a small portion of the people was saved by the divine spark.
The coordinates of the Universe Graveyard were clearly visible in Ou Yangming’s mind. Dao Xuanji’s memories were very helpful to him. He was not surprised by the strange scenes in the chaos.
Along the way, Ou Yangming met many creatures of the chaos.
Those who could survive in the universe were above a half step to the Heavenly Rank. There were ferocious wild beasts, humans, and strange chaotic races.
Ou Yangming did not bother with them. They did not dare to provoke him either.
After mastering the profound meaning of space-time, his speed was astonishing.
In just half a month, Ou Yangming had arrived at a desolate and lonely place.
From Dao Xuanji’s memories, Ou Yangming knew that the Universe Graveyard was ahead. This was a forbidden area for life. Even Heavenly Rank powerhouses in the primal chaos did not dare to come here.
Ou Yangming looked around. After arriving here, he became careful.
All of a sudden, Ou Yangming’s gaze focused. He looked at the huge fellow in front of him.
The rock that could not be seen at a glance suddenly started to move. In an instant, the world trembled, and chaotic air currents scattered in all directions.
‘It’s a Primal Chaos Rocky Sea Monster!”
Ou Yangming recognized this fellow at a glance. From Dao Xuanji’s memories, he knew how fearsome this fellow was. If it was Dao Xuanji, he would have fled by now.
