Douluo Continent: Starting with controlling Ning Rongrong and establishing the Holy Cult

Two hours earlier, "Sima Xi" had suddenly arrived at the work area and was working with them on the project.

This is nothing unusual; it's perfectly normal for a supervisor to come and inspect the progress of work.

The problem was that after two hours, the senior staff discovered that this "Sima Xi" was indeed modifying some of the game's content.

This is strange.

Most people in the company know that Sima Xi is not good at coding.

Although Sima Xi is skilled in many things, he is not very good at coding.

Moreover, Sima Xi generally doesn't appear in public; he communicates more by phone.

Sima Xi only intervenes in matters of great importance, such as the acquisition of other companies, when she has no choice but to do so.

As for fixing bugs...

Technically speaking, Sima Xi did not need to take action personally.

In terms of importance, Sima Xi didn't need to take action personally.

Therefore, it was truly strange that Sima Xi spent two hours with them studying this game.

Of course, if that's all there is to it, it can still be explained.

Such as out of interest.

More importantly, senior personnel discovered that Sima Xi's words had also taken on a different meaning.

He couldn't quite describe it, he could only say... he'd become gloomy.

Although she used to be meticulous with them, you could still sense an upward drive in her attitude.

Now, all that's left is a sense of decline.

This is because her personality has changed.

Generally speaking, if someone's personality changes, it's either because they've experienced a major upheaval or they've been switched at birth.

After careful consideration, everyone concluded that the latter was more likely.

After a senior staff member secretly reviewed Sima Xi's revisions, they became certain of this.

The reason is that Sima Xi's revisions did not contain any obvious grammatical errors.

-

The thick, dusty air pressed heavily against Sima Xi's nose.

The metal shackles were deeply embedded in his wrists, carrying a chilling coldness. In the midst of intense dizziness, Sima Xi's consciousness suddenly returned.

Where is this...?

As far as the eye could see, there were thick wooden fences, dim and flickering torchlight, and indistinct figures of guards in the Spirit Hall's standard armor in the distance.

Spirit Hall?

Sima Xi frowned.

"I must be dreaming..."

Before she could finish speaking, she froze.

She just opened her mouth to speak, but—

That tone isn't hers.

Although it sounds similar and familiar, Sima Xi is very clear that this is not the timbre that she should have at this time and with the corresponding body.

The tone of her voice was more like that of Poseidon from some long ago.

"No, no, that's unlikely."

She murmured to herself, looked around, and confirmed her current situation.

She is probably in the dungeon of the Spirit Hall.

It took her a long time to accept this fact.

She also accepted the fact that she had traveled back to her previous body.

Now, she should be called "Poseidon".

As she came to terms with the facts, memories from her body also surfaced.

Her plan to collect the Black Flame was to target the Spirit Hall. She would first launch a strong attack on the Hall of Worship to obtain the Black Flame, and then launch a surprise attack on the Pope's Hall. However, she encountered Qian Daoliu and another person fighting each other, which allowed her to pick up another Black Flame. This was supposed to be a very smooth process.

But even the best-laid plans can go awry. She was tricked by Ning Rongrong and lost all her Black Flames. Then, the eight Black Flames gathered together, causing a strange phenomenon in the heavens and earth. The passage between Douluo Continent and the real world was briefly opened, and the three of them fainted. Qian Daoliu woke up and captured them...

She recalled all of these memories.

Sima Xi nodded and summarized his situation.

"So, I've traveled back in time, and right now I'm being held captive by Qian Daoliu."

"This is such a troublesome matter."

Sima Xi sighed. She really didn't expect to come back one day, nor did she expect that her return would be like this.

She closed her eyes and began to familiarize herself with her body.

Having been away for so long, even her own body felt somewhat unfamiliar.

Fortunately, this is her body after all, so it won't take long for her to get used to it.

Finally, Sima Xi suddenly opened her eyes, and the vast soul power that had been dormant within her body suddenly erupted, directly helping her break free of her shackles.

Then he shook his hands, shaking off the discomfort of being shackled for so long.

After doing all this, she stood up.

Then, a vast amount of soul power continued to erupt, even stronger than before.

Now, her strength has recovered to the level of a level 99 Peerless Douluo.

And soon, it was restored to level 100.

The dizziness receded like a tide, replaced by a sense of control over the body.

Sima Xi's mind stirred slightly, and the next moment, his soul power erupted once again.

However, this time the target is not the constraints imposed on oneself.

Rather, it's the constraints of places a little further away.

This included the thick, heavy steel chains that locked the prison doors, the patrolling men, and the wall behind them.

In an instant, the chains shattered into pieces.

The guard noticed something amiss and turned to look in confusion.

However, when he turned his head, all he could see were empty cells and scattered metal scraps on the ground.

"What about people?"

The guards immediately perked up.

Chapter 222 Return to Seagod Island

The guards rushed directly toward the temporary cell where "Poseidon" was being held.

He remembered that the High Priest had emphasized to him that the cell held a powerful prisoner, and that the fact that she was currently in a coma was a great help in keeping her locked up.

Once she emerges from her coma, escape is inevitable, and no one can stop her from doing so.

The reason for locking them up here is simply to give the Spirit Hall some buffer time.

A time when the message of escape could be sent out.

Thinking this, the guards arrived at the cell and looked closely to confirm that the people inside had indeed escaped. A chill ran down their spines.

He really ran away!

We need to hurry and get the message to the High Priest, who's busy dealing with other prisoners and doesn't have time for this...

Uh!

The guard was just about to pass on the message when he was a step too late.

Sima Xi knew that this guard had to be dealt with, so he lay in ambush early on.

And now, she is laying an ambush.

With a single chop, she knocked the guard unconscious.

After seeing the guard fall, she dusted herself off, breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked around at the scene.

This is probably indeed the dungeon of the Spirit Hall, as there isn't even a ray of natural light.

She had never been here before. But she was confident that with her abilities, getting out wouldn't be a problem.

Whether she sneaks away or forces her way out, it's not a problem for her.

After thinking it over, Sima Xi decided to sneak away.

There was no particular reason; she simply didn't really want a fight to break out.

She escaped very quickly, and intentionally let the power of the sea god envelop her to reduce the noise she would make.

A considerable amount of time passed before the other guards realized she had escaped.

"The person...the person is gone!"

One of the guards exclaimed in surprise, and then all the guards in the dungeon went on alert.

The sounds of hurried footsteps and the clanging of metal armor echoed throughout the room.

However, after the news spread, the guards searched the entire dungeon of the Spirit Hall, but ultimately could not find any trace of "Poseidon".

-

Meanwhile, Sima Xi had already left the Spirit Hall dungeon, and her current location was some distance from the Spirit Hall.

Meanwhile, everything went exactly as Sima Xi had predicted; there were no pursuers.

Her whereabouts were not discovered.
