Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 832 - 417: Old Ascender Bears the Weight When the Sky Falls

Although Zhang Ze had never played with rockets, he had watched TV before and had tried sitting on the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion's new all-terrain Thunder Three Thousand model tractor.

When this rumbling feeling came, he knew with eighty percent certainty that it was about to take off.

But the problem was Zhang Ze didn't want to fly; he didn't want to be an astronaut, and he certainly didn't want to eat cheesy snacks.

He thought the Four Continents was quite nice, with flowers, grass, and forests, and he hadn't had enough of it yet.

He had to find a way to stop this launch.

However, because of the suddenness, he didn't have any good ideas for the moment, and everyone else was in the same boat.

Da Tou Cai was so anxious that he was spinning in circles on the spot. Brother Monkey didn't understand, fear in his eyes, tightly gripping his precious iron stick, his teeth shaking with the vibrations.

Li, on the other hand, activated her astounding wisdom, preparing to directly use her amazing power to charge headlong into that core pyramid for a frontal breakthrough.

Lily had said that the best way to stop a Flying Ship was to directly blow up the core Power Array.

The green giant couldn't tear apart the defensive barrier, God Li would tear it.

It's undeniable that this was indeed a good idea.

When there's no other way, charging blind always works, whether one can charge through is a question for later if there is a later.

But just as Li prepared to reveal her true form, which even Zhang Ze hadn't seen yet, to show her real power, the vibrations suddenly stopped.

As if someone pressed the pause button, the vibrations ceased, the blood moon hovering over the ruined city disappeared, the flickering lights and the joyous laughter of the Firefly Spirits all came to an abrupt halt.

"Huh?"

Li, whose head had become pointy, was pulled back by Zhang Ze by her tail from the window ledge.

"Don't expose yourself yet."

One by one, shallow green and white Firefly Spirits flew out from the core pyramid, buzzing around like headless flies, uttering various inexplicable cries.

"Busted! Busted!"

"Has anyone seen my manual?"

"Citizens! Friends! Does anyone know how to fix the restrictor?"

Though it's unclear what exactly happened, the result is clear; this group of little guys probably encountered trouble with their way back home.

The captain failed to take off.

Zhang Ze held down Li, who was about to unleash her might, with one hand, gesturing to Brother Monkey and Da Tou Cai.

"I have a plan, in a moment we'll split into two groups, Brother Monkey, you and Li..."

But before Zhang Ze finished speaking, suddenly another Firefly Spirit jumped in through the window.

Judging by the color, it was from the return home brigade.

"Has anyone seen my restrictor?" The oblivious Firefly Spirit asked casually.

But the response wasn't a "no idea" but rather a little combo move.

Brother Monkey swept with his big stick, hitting the Firefly Spirit's head, dealing an initial control blow.

After the control, vines came to bind it tightly, restricting it from teleporting away.

Following that, Li opened her mouth wide, conjuring her artifact whose name is so long that even she sometimes forgets it.

Directly capturing the Firefly Spirit inside.

Zhang Ze, "..."

"Alright, we'll continue. Brother Monkey, you and Li..." Zhang Ze raised a metal plate, blocking the window, and continued with the previous topic.

———— Divide line marking incoming storm ————

Typically, the most dangerous places are the safest places, like typhoons.

The eye of the typhoon is calm, as for outside, it's best not to mind...

After all, landing just once isn't easy.

We are blowing hard.

I thought that was just a small hill.

You go talk to my five hundred kilometers per hour wind speed.

Although the anomaly at Luoyu Mountain isn't a typhoon, it's quite close. Compared to the tranquility of Zhang Ze and his group, it's rather miserable outside.

Outside Luoyu Mountain.

Thunder rolled across the sky, the blood moon phenomenon covered the heavens; a Six-legged Owl Crocodile, coming from South Sea and running against the currents, was escaping in the rain curtain, the fine scales on its back trembling.

A moment later, amidst the mournful cries of the Six-legged Owl Crocodile, the immense gravity tore its body apart, shattered scales reflecting the blood moon's light, falling towards the sky with the reverse flow of rain.

Centered around Luoyu Mountain, a massive vortex tore and devoured everything around it, transforming the verdant jungle into chaotic scorched earth.

Under this natural disaster, the living creatures here abandoned their enmities, too occupied to care if the others were natural enemies, using every means to escape the increasingly violent rain curtain behind them.

But as they say, the bigger the storm, the more precious the fish; there's always someone fearless enough to spot opportunity in chaos.

Miaomiao, Erlang, and their group didn't flee but stood on a hill outside the rain curtain, making a profit.

The three of them each holding a second-hand Beast Taming Ring, capturing escaping Spirit Beasts with precision.

"Miaomiao~ Come into the bowl quickly."

Miaomiao grinned from ear to ear, calculating today's earnings, fantasizing about a lush life of indulgence and being idle like a rich cat lounging on plush carpets playing with scratch boards.

However, happy closing leads to tragedy as the main theme of their lives, the three who were laughing suddenly closed their mouths, faces drooping, joined the fleeing ranks in panic like headless flies.

Because with the sky blood moon becoming brighter, the vortex and rain curtain began to expand outward.

And the speed was quite frightening.

At the center of the vortex, the tides of Earth Sea resonated, Luoyu Mountain kept flickering, showing its true form from time to time—a dilapidated raindrop-shaped Starship.

The vortex continued to expand, Chang State's power was being extracted, converging beneath Luoyu Mountain, like a taut massive bow, ready to launch Luoyu Mountain at any moment.

But just as Miaomiao and the others were about to be captured by the vortex and torn to shreds by gravity, another strange team suddenly sprang out from behind their nearby hill.
