Above the Great Dao-Chapter 1468 - 682: Ants

Guiyuan World. Great Yuan City.

Yuan means wall.

Great Yuan City, meaning a city with tall walls.

The walls are about one li high, with various runes painted on them to fend off the Primordial Worms. Outside the high walls lies a range of flesh mountains, where blood and flesh grow between the earth and abyss. If people are careless, they will be devoured by the flesh, and only within the high walls is it considered safe.

The people here are already accustomed to the writhing mountains outside the city and the flesh growing everywhere.

Among them are those born awakened, who can cultivate and master special abilities between heaven and earth, strengthening themselves through absorbing Earth Qi, known as Cultivators.

Every day, many Cultivators leave the city to clear blocked roads, harvest Primordial Worm flesh, and slay Evil Spirits.

There are also many Evil Spirits here, more powerful than those in the West Bull New Continent; they live in the wilderness, appearing unpredictably, with strange and unique abilities, and every day many are lost to them.

The full name of the Shijia Clan is Great Ancestor Shijia, also of the Demon Clan, living within the high walls, thriving and multiplying. Every month, trade caravans escorted by the Demon Clan Cultivators travel to other high walls for trading.

For nearby locations, the caravans take half a month; for distant places, it could take a year or even several years to reach other high wall cities.

And the day the caravans return is the busiest market, where not only goods absent from within the high walls are brought, but young men from other high wall cities arrive with the caravans.

At this time, young women dress up, hoping for romantic encounters with opposite genders from other high walls for the sake of offspring. Thus, this market is also called the Hand-Holding Festival, symbolizing love across mountains and waters, where admirers hold hands and spend a pleasant evening together.

Of course, young men from Great Yuan City also travel with the caravans to other cities.

When Shao Guang controls the Primordial Worm attack, it coincides with the Hand-Holding Festival of Great Yuan City, accompanied by more than two thousand young men from another city, Shuiyuan City.

Some of them participate in this festival for the first time, timidly and shyly under the passionate gaze of the Great Yuan City maidens, while others, seasoned, dress themselves up to look handsome and imposing, standing tall to gain more favor.

Participation in this festival requires showing off to compete for mating rights; some young men challenge each other to duels, others display Divine Skills, while some perform talents.

Moluo Xing is the City Lord of Great Yuan City, and he no longer participates in the Hand-Holding Festival.

He walks on the streets, watching the bewildered, passionate young men and women, unintentionally recalling his own youth.

"Now many young people no longer know what the real heavens and earth look like."

Beside him, his disciple Luo Sheluo said, "This generation of young ones leads a frivolous life, knowing only pleasure, unaware that the skies once had Sun, Moon, and Stars, not just blood clouds. They do not know there were no Blood and Flesh Mountains, nor Evil Spirits in the world. How can they inherit our legacy and sustain our clan?"

He was deeply worried.

Moluo Xing said, "Luo Sheluo, you can't demand too much from these young people. Let them play if they want to play, and let them love if they want to love, without burdening them excessively. You were once called a lost generation too, yet didn't you later shine and leave those who mocked you awestruck?"

Luo Sheluo was somewhat unconvinced: "Master, we were much stronger than them back then. Although we also played and frolicked, when we were serious, we were serious indeed! Look at Senior Brother Luo Yu, his cultivation spans heaven and earth; can any of these young ones compare to him now?" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Moluo Xing shook his head and said, "He was the most rebellious then. He only focused on cultivation wholeheartedly later."

He showed concern: "Luo Yu was whisked away by a beam of light, which is extremely mysterious. I wonder how he's doing now."

Luo Sheluo laughed: "Senior Brother Luo Yu has cultivated the Heavenly Evil Star Rain from the master, and has already mastered the Heavenly Evil Sky Domain. His prowess is extraordinary, he will certainly be fine."

Suddenly, as they spoke, the two felt a sense of something ominous, and simultaneously lifted their heads to look skyward.

Above Great Yuan City, a palm formed by the flesh cloud of Primordial Worms enveloped the entire city, descending!

The sky was burning due to the rapid descent of the flesh palm, creating high temperatures through air friction.

Besides flames, there was rosy clouds!

They were the rosy clouds formed by the Heaven and Earth Dao Power of the Guiyuan World; even Moluo Xing had never seen such splendid rosy clouds.

The Heaven and Earth Dao Power he could command was indeed extraordinary, but it was incomparably different compared to this flesh palm!

Moluo Xing stared at the descending flesh palm, and suddenly couldn't stop his tears from rolling down, his voice hoarse: "Luo Sheluo, hurry away."

Luo Sheluo was slightly taken aback, puzzled by his meaning.

Moluo Xing reached out and grabbed his collar, throwing him far out, yelling, "Go quickly—"

Luo Sheluo was thrown out of Great Yuan City, tumbling toward the distant place.

Luo Sheluo was panicked: "Why is Master driving me away?"

Moluo Xing stood tall, facing the descending flesh palm, like a moth to a flame.

He had fought many times with Primordial Worms, but never had he been so uneasy as today.

Back when Primordial Worms came to Guiyuan World, the flesh covered the sky and earth, devouring everything. The entire Guiyuan World was soon covered by the flesh of Primordial Worms, and the Heaven and Earth Great Dao was also influenced by the Evil Dao emitted by Primordial Worms. All life forms fell into Evil Transformation, some more deeply than others.

At that time, Moluo Xing was already a famous strongman, leading resistance, using the Heavenly Evil Star Rain to counter the Primordial Worm, stabilizing the flesh within a thousand li.
