Building a sect from scratch.

"Friend Zhutu?"

Fang Xianyu had just changed back into Baili Shuang's disguise when he heard Huai Ren's somewhat anxious voice and said, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need to worry. I've already switched back with my junior sister."

"Ah, it's Fellow Daoist Baili!"

When Huai Ren realized that the person in front of him was Baili Shuang, he suddenly became much more reserved. He then looked frequently at the other side of the rift valley, where the mist had become chaotic, his eyes full of worry. He hesitated to speak to Baili Shuang, and after several attempts to open his mouth, he finally said only, "Yinglong Wang has taken away the dragon soul that was suppressing the rift valley. We cannot stay here for long. Why don't I send Fellow Daoist Baili back to Zhongzhou first?"

Baili Shuang shook her head and said frankly, "No need. To be honest, the disciples of the Taiyin Sect have already been in talks with the people of Beiji Liuzhou. They planned to bring them out in the next few days to settle down in the Taiyin Sect. Now that something like this has happened, we can't just leave them alone! Moreover..."

Baili Shuang glanced at Huai Ren, who was still anxious and seemed about to rush out to find a way to save people, and continued, "Moreover, Liuzhou is a very important place, and it is located in the Guixu Realm. If it is left unattended, it will sink into the Nine Netherworld sooner or later, and then the entire Liuzhou will be in danger!"

“Fellow Daoist Baili is absolutely right! We must not let it sink into the Nine Netherworlds! If my father were here, perhaps he could do something, but he holds the divine duty of the Taishui God and cannot leave lightly… Alas! If it were me…”

As he spoke, Huai Ren finally couldn't hold back any longer. He gritted his teeth and said to Baili Shuang with a solemn expression, "Fellow Daoist Baili, it's not that I look down on you, but the situation is really dire and cannot be delayed! I have a method that might be able to suppress it to some extent. If it doesn't work, I would appreciate it if you could go to Taishui and ask my sister to come and help us!"

After speaking, he didn't wait for Baili Shuang to reply. He immediately transformed into a giant white-scaled dragon and soared into the sky. The sky was filled with dark clouds, which almost covered the entire Arctic Flow Continent!

"That fool!"

Baili Shuang was unusually anxious—she had just exchanged puppets with Zhao Qing and hadn't even had a chance to explain her plan before the Dragon King of Taishui suppressed her momentum with his words. Now she couldn't even react to stop him and could only watch helplessly as he traversed the clouds amidst the thick red mist.

Then, several thunderclaps struck the dark sky, followed by a torrential downpour of salty, fishy rain, as if a hole had been torn in the sky.

"Huai Ren!" Baili Shuang finally understood what Kui Huai Ren was trying to do, and became even more anxious. Her voice was filled with spiritual power as she shouted at the white dragon that appeared and disappeared in the sky, "You don't need to do this! Even if you exhaust your cultivation like this, you may not be able to suppress it!"

Unexpectedly, Kui Huai Ren was incredibly stubborn, ignoring Baili Shuang's advice and even displaying a fearless, death-defying spirit. A rumbling dragon roar echoed from the clouds: "Fellow Daoist Baili! You shall protect me!"

"This dragon is probably born in the Year of the Ox!"

Enraged, Baili Shuang had no choice but to leap into the air and rush to the coastline adjacent to the Arctic Stream Continent. Using his system energy points, he forcefully pumped a massive column of seawater like a water pump, then painstakingly extended this column into the rift valley.

Huai Ren's method of suppression was to expend his cultivation to force a heavy rain to fill the rift valley, turning it into a river, and then suppressing the river water to control the evil spirits and various strange things in it.

If he were to suppress it for no reason, with his cultivation and Taoist practice, he would be helpless. However, if he were to create a river and connect his own cultivation path and life with the river to suppress this place, then the river would be able to be controlled as if it were his own arm, and it would not be impossible for it to trap evil spirits and other such things.

This is certainly a method, but such a method must first be able to "create" a river!
Huai Ren is merely a small dragon with a few hundred years of cultivation. Even with the favor of heaven and the blessing of merit, he is unlikely to be able to move mountains and fill seas. He can only exhaust his cultivation. Even if he successfully "creates" this river in the end, he will probably be as weak as a newly hatched baby dragon and unable to perform the task of suppressing it! That is why he said what he just said to Baili Shuang - he wanted the dragon girl to come and suppress the great river for him!

He himself risked his cultivation and even his life to "create" the river!
'I never imagined that the Water Dragon King could raise such children!'

Baili Shuang was deeply moved.

The difference between dragons is so vast. Although the Dragon King Yinglong treated her fairly well, he was quite indifferent to humans—which is understandable, since he was a dragon and had no obligation to take responsibility for humans. But the Dragon King Taishui, this son of the dragons, was willing to sacrifice his cultivation and even his life for complete strangers, which is truly noble.

Fortunately, he encountered Fang Xianyu—even though he was disguised as Baili Shuang, Fang Xianyu could still mobilize the system's energy points.

As she watched her energy points plummet like water, her heart ached, she gritted her teeth and relentlessly pushed her golden core to control the seawater as it poured into the rift valley.

Baili Shuang's actions greatly shocked Huai Ren.

While his ability to summon rain could indeed be attributed to family tradition, he did indeed condense seawater for the sake of convenience. After all, this place was closer to the sea, and absorbing seawater into rain clouds to form rain would save a considerable amount of spiritual energy and cultivation. However, he never expected that Baili Shuang, a cultivator whose cultivation level seemed quite ordinary, could actually accomplish something as simple as moving mountains and filling seas!

Dragging seawater into the rift valley!

Only someone with the power and cultivation of his father, the Water Dragon King, could accomplish something like this!

Although the closest point of the Soul Devouring Rift to the coast is only a few miles away, it can still be considered a "mountain-moving and sea-filling" method!

Seeing Baili Shuang's seemingly effortless actions, he was quite pleased—perhaps he could suppress this place on his own without needing his sister's help!

Compared to Huai Ren, who was somewhat pleased, Bai Li Shuang was quite unhappy.

She had planned everything perfectly—although the Dragon King had extracted the dragon soul that suppressed the Arctic Flowing Continent, he had also taken away the culprit that was absorbing souls. At the very least, she could use her system energy points to cross the rift and go directly to the Arctic Flowing Continent, set up a large teleportation array, and send all the ordinary people away directly through it. As for the vengeful spirits and other demons and monsters that remained after the people were gone, she could even start a long-term battlefield event, which would not only enrich the players' gameplay and reduce their complaints about the game's pedigree, but might even reward her with more system energy points!

More importantly, it would be almost a matter of course to bring the entire Arctic Flow Continent under the control of the Taiyin Sect in the future!

But now things are really messed up. This broken dragon has taken the initiative himself. She not only has to find a way to save Huai Ren's life, but also has to consider what excuse she can use to take over the Arctic Flow Continent!
After all, there's no way to stop it now—if he were to suddenly stop and retract such a powerful display of rain and clouds, Huai Ren himself wouldn't be able to withstand the backlash!
What pained her most was that she also had to spend a lot of system energy points! (End of Chapter)
