In the 185th year after the save file was loaded, a tentacle of the cataclysmic change extended, threatening the void occupied by the Pure Fire Cult.

Although the main cause of the calamity is still in the celestial realm, this time the calamity has spread far beyond what it was before.

Instead, a well-organized legion of calamities emerged.

Within the dark purple light that greeted them, there were many black tides that were even larger than those in ordinary realms.

Inside the Black Tide, countless bizarre beasts and vengeful soldiers roam.

They resembled a massive interstellar fleet, their trajectories leaving a dark purple trail in the void.

They were aggressive and made no attempt to conceal their true intentions.

Like a comet streaking across the universe, it hurtled towards the Pure Fire Sect from afar.

The sect naturally sensed this in advance and quickly gathered hundreds of floating cities of death energy to form an interstellar wall, activating the most stringent defense mode.

But as the light of the calamity drew ever closer, the sect's cultivators finally realized that this was the true calamity, completely different from the fragments and threads they had previously fought against.

In the past, the fragments of calamity we faced were limited; at most, we could activate five dead cities at the same time to completely destroy them.

The true calamity legion that is about to arrive is so vast that it seems to be endless.

The City of the Dead, which had previously been able to resolve many troubles, proved to be quite ordinary when facing this kind of enemy.

But the cultivators of the world could do no more.

After sending the floating city of death energy to fight the enemy, people watched the real-time void scene playing on the Pure Fire interface.

Seeing the overwhelming calamity, it seemed that it was about to engulf the dead city they relied on.

All that was left to do was pray.

As the central hub of the power of wishes, Xi Heng also heard the people's prayers and immediately tried to find a way to respond.

But the true calamities in the void are far too powerful.

The methods used to deal with calamities in the celestial realm cannot be directly applied to the void.

Aside from powers at the level of immortals and demigods, perhaps only other natural disasters could contend with the Void Cataclysm...

Like previous disaster relief efforts, these were created to ward off calamities.

While pondering, Xi Heng came up with two choices—

One is to expand the death energy through the Disaster Pointer to the fullest extent, ascending to the level of Void Calamity, becoming a new calamity and transformation.

Another option is to find Su Ziyuan to obtain the Disaster Guidance to contain and alleviate the Light Disaster, and then unleash the Light Disaster upon the world once again.

These two points are not mutually exclusive. If the impending catastrophe is too powerful, both methods can be used to allow the catastrophe of death and the catastrophe of light to fight side by side.

"...Let's ask Su Ziyuan first. We don't know if the Calamity Finger has formed in her body yet."

Before her self-talk had even faded, she scanned Su Ziyuan's private cultivation room with her spiritual sense, but found no trace of her.

"I've been cultivating here the whole time, is today a rare day of rest?"

Xi Heng scanned the entire hall but could not find him.

So he used the spatial magic to instantly transform the surrounding scenery into a bustling, spirit-created city.

Su Ziyuan often comes here during her breaks, and she may be here today as well.

Expanding her spiritual sense once more to scan the entire city, she unsurprisingly found the other person's figure in a thriving fried food shop.

Next, the scene shifts to a shop.

The girl with brown-gray hair she was looking for was sitting in front of her, drinking a beverage from her cup.

After the other person finished drinking, the white-haired girl approached and gently patted the other person's shoulder with her right hand.

Su Ziyuan's body trembled slightly for a moment, then she immediately turned around to glance back before returning to her original position.

Seeing that it was Xi Heng, he breathed a sigh of relief:

Don't scare us.

"What did you drink?" Xi Heng asked, starting with something he was curious about in daily life.

"This shop has a new product, a very sweet kind of water that's steaming... so it's called soda."

The other person held up the cup, wanting Xi Heng to try it, but it was already empty.

So, he simply scanned the talisman on the table with his spiritual light and ordered two more drinks.

"Soda?"

Xi Heng recalled that he had not mentioned anything about carbonated drinks here.

This soda seems to have been created naturally...

I wonder how much of a difference there is between this and the cola that Fanxin Shi talks about every day.

She casually picked up a small snack that Su Ziyuan had bought, and a moment later, a waiter brought her a drink.

The soft drinks at this snack shop don't come with straws or anything like that; they're just served in glass cups, and there aren't any special bottles.

Xi Heng took a sip and felt the bubbles slowly burst between his lips and teeth.

After savoring it for a moment, I simply said:

"So sweet."

"Right, it's too sweet... We just told the shop that we hope they can make some less sweet ones in the future, and with other flavors, like orange or cherry." Su Ziyuan said with a smile.

"The texture is alright, but the taste is a bit strange. It seems like it has mint or something similar in it." This is very different from the cola she has in mind.

It may take a long time to find something that suits one's taste.

However, it's quite impressive that the shops in Spirit Creation City were able to create such a drink on their own.

Xi Heng nodded, savoring the moment.

"Are you off today too?" Su Ziyuan started the conversation: "That's rare."

The girl shook her head: "It wasn't a rest; I came here specifically to see you."

The other person blinked, and after half a second, realized why:

"Oh, is it that finger that's needed... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it may take some time. The fifty years I mentioned before was just enough for it to take shape. It will take more years to reach perfection."

"Can't it be removed in a short time?"

"Hmm, it seems that something special was incorporated into that finger during its formation. It seems to be much more powerful than before, exceeding our expectations, so it will take longer." Su Ziyuan apologized again.

Xi Heng didn't say much, but used his willpower to observe the external void again.

The cataclysmic event is approaching, and may arrive in less than half a month, swallowing up the floating city of deathly energy that stands in its way.

If they simply continue to wait for Su Ziyuan's relief of the Light Calamity, the external Calamity will inevitably surge into the Pure Fire Realm like a long snake, causing chaos and upheaval.

Xi Heng sighed softly, almost unconsciously.

He thought to himself, "If only my Pure Fire Sect were a super-large realm like the Heavenly Realm."

That way, the calamity can be kept outside the boundary rift, and any that seeps in can be dealt with slowly inside the boundary.

The calamity can be averted simply by using the method from the previous life in the Heavenly Realm.

Now, placed in the void, it is facing a true void catastrophe.

This kind of combat, at another level, can only be fought using methods at another level—

The white-haired girl slowly stood up and said to Su Ziyuan in front of her:

"Then, I'll contact you again after we get together."

"Okay, okay." Su Ziyuan held the cup with both hands and drank her soda, adding, "Not just disaster relief, but if you need assistance in other areas, you can also ask us for help."

"Ah."

Xi Heng didn't pay much attention and simply waved goodbye.

As you move, the surrounding scenery changes again, transforming into the interior of another unique yet familiar realm.

Ahead stands a city, its walls as white as snow, with exquisite cloud patterns winding and swirling, like clouds fixed upon them.

Xi Heng glanced at it, then left the spatial node area and moved to another area within the boundary.

This place is the boundary of Xuanxiao.

In that previous life, this world was affected by a calamity, and was saved by Chen Fenghuo and Su Xuanhua.

Then Xi Heng arrived to help, and they found a calamity finger that existed deep within the Chi Xie Sect.

Su Xuanhua merged into it, awakening the light disaster and rising into the void to fight against the filth disaster, thus being saved.

The little girl Su Ziyuan was born because of this, and she remains in her spiritual fire space to this day.

In this world, the development of the Xuanxiao Realm has changed dramatically.

Under the protection of the Pure Fire Cult and the Floating City of Death Qi, the Xuanxiao Realm was spared from the calamity.

Before the calamity fragments touched Xuanxiao, the dead city that sheltered all worlds from the void had already obliterated them.

Therefore, the major sects in the Xuanxiao Realm remained stable at this time, and many of the Nascent Soul cultivators joined the Pure Fire Sect.

The earth was not covered in crimson, nor were any living beings corrupted by the filth and tainted with a bloodlust.

Meanwhile, the savior, Miss Su Xuanhua, is also a star cultivator with exceptional talent within one of the major sects, attracting much attention.

The Crimson River Sect did not bear the infamy of bringing about the apocalypse; it remained a renowned sect within the realm.

Xi Hengxing was in this realm, slowly expanding his spiritual consciousness.

Not long after, he once again found the entire Crimson Mountain Sect, which was densely packed with numerous buildings stacked like a honeycomb, in his spiritual sense.

Then, the white-haired man closed his eyes for a moment, and space shifted.

When he opened his eyes again, the surrounding scenery had changed from natural landscape to the front of the Chixie Sect's mountain gate.

A Taoist priest was sweeping in front, his broom making a rustling sound as it swept across the stone bricks.

When they saw someone approaching and sensed Xi Heng's extraordinary aura, they instinctively reached out to bow in greeting.

The next instant, the figure vanished as if it were an illusion, and the cultivator could no longer see it, only wondering why.

Xi Heng himself had already entered the illusionary passage used by the Chi Xie Sect to test cultivators during the spatial shift.

Hundreds of disciples listened attentively below the altar, while an old man above chanted the profound mysteries of Taoism.

Xi Heng didn't follow the fixed procedure; he simply waved his hand and unleashed a burst of Dao-integrating true power, which slashed across the four directions like sword energy.

Immediately, the surrounding illusion collapsed and shattered, opening up a passage.

The following levels were also overcome using a similar method.

Under her Dao-Merging True Power, these illusionary trials created by cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage were utterly ineffective in hindering her.

If Xi Heng hadn't known the way to this path and hadn't been unwilling to put in the effort to find other ways, this test wouldn't have been able to draw her in at all.

Each test was overcome in just a few seconds.

Two or three minutes later, she arrived at the underground secret realm within the Crimson River Sect, bypassing the palace gate and arriving at the rear.

Not far ahead lies the underground rift valley where a calamity-inducing artifact is stored.

Xi Heng came here today specifically for this cursed finger.

Since Su Ziyuan's Calamity Finger still needs time to condense, let's just come to the Xuanxiao Realm and take away its original form.

After all, no matter what kind of calamity power is to be used, the more calamities the better.

She had also tried to obtain the Disaster Finger, but an identical finger cannot be fused twice; at most, it can only be replaced.

As for whether Su Ziyuan's condensed Disaster Finger can still be used after absorbing the Disaster Finger in the underground rift, that's something to consider later.

The white-haired girl stood close to one side of the rift, looking down.

It was clear that a strange white light was emanating from it, like light gauze or white silk being blown upwards by a cold wind.

Xi Heng tried to touch it, but the white light passed right through her fingers.

She observed for a moment with the vision of the Dao, and saw some 'strings' representing the Dao of Heaven gathering here.

"This feeling seems to have some connection with that demigod from the celestial realm," the girl murmured to herself.

“A certain power related to the Heavenly Dao of ‘light’ is gathering here, sealing the calamity below.”
