After a day of rest, Miles's body recovered to a level where he could move.
He rode the Soul King-level bicycle he had snatched from the Blacksmiths' Association two weeks ago and headed to the Blacksmiths' Association in the central district.
Arriving at the location, he saw people from the City Lord's Mansion investigating something in the empty, large building.
Miles threw the bicycle at the entrance and rushed into the association's interior in a panic.
The empty stalls, the clean counters, everything was proving the truth to him.
"How could this be? I was almost successful, how could they just disappear like this?"
If Miles was still immersed in the joy of taking over the Blacksmiths' Association the day before yesterday, then the blow he was suffering now was even greater.
The distraught Miles attracted the attention of the City Lord's Mansion, but they dared not stop him, let alone inquire.
After yesterday's investigation, the City Lord's Mansion had completely confirmed the departure of the Blacksmiths' Association.
The impact of this matter on Gengxin City was undoubtedly enormous.
However, they were also powerless to do anything about it because they were very clear that the Blacksmiths' Association could not have done this on its own. There must be a powerful force behind it, different from the Spirit Hall.
Realizing this, the City Lord's Mansion gave up the investigation.
And Miles, now, was immersed in the huge contrast of falling from heaven to hell.
Everything here should have been his, this was his pre-ordered money bag, but now everything was in vain.
Miles, both physically and mentally frustrated, felt dizzy and swayed.
And at the moment when Miles was frustrated, the 'culprit' of this matter was riding in a large convoy, heading west.
At the front of the convoy, Quan Yi and Huowu stood on the roof of a carriage, maintaining the concealment of the entire convoy.
"I really want to see Miles's reaction, he must be very disappointed."
Huowu joked while maintaining the 'Peach Illusion' fire.
Standing beside her, Quan Yi asked curiously, "What exactly did you make them experience these days?
Forget it, I'd better not ask."
For the past two weeks, Huowu had been controlling all the Spirit Hall members from the Spirit Hall Main Hall.
That's right, in these two weeks, all the Spirit Hall members had not stepped out of the Spirit Hall Main Hall.
And everything Miles had experienced in these two weeks was an illusion displayed to him by Huowu.
Under Huowu's control, Miles successfully looted the Blacksmiths' Association on the very night he was controlled.
And that wasn't the end of it. From the next day onwards, he intensified his oppression of the Blacksmiths' Association.
This process lasted for two whole weeks, from the initial stubborn resistance to the later compromise, Miles forced Silong step by step.
And just the day before yesterday, Silong, under his pressure, agreed to the request to merge into the Spirit Hall.
However, who would have thought that all of this was a false world simulated by Huowu's 'Peach Illusion' fire?
In the real world, they hadn't left the Spirit Hall Main Hall a single step.
Thinking that these guys were like puppets, controlled by Huowu on the stage she had set up, without even realizing it, Quan Yi couldn't help but shiver.
Watching Huowu relish this experience with fascination, Quan Yi suspected that Huowu had awakened something dangerous.
The convoy moved quietly, no one along the way noticing this convoy of nearly ten thousand people passing near them.
A week later, the convoy arrived at Xingluo's coastal city, Canghai City.
They followed the huge city walls, detouring to the wide wharf.
Canghai City, like Hanhai City, as Xingluo Empire's only coastal city, possessed an extremely wide wharf.
Looking from afar, hundreds of ships were docked at the wharf, and even more densely packed crowds were busy around them.
"We've finally arrived, wife, please put in one last effort."
Huowu took a light breath, but still firmly said, "No problem."
Including controlling the Spirit Hall Main Hall, Huowu had been maintaining the state of soul skill output for three consecutive weeks.
It should be known that soul skills have limitations. To maintain soul skill output all the time, one must rely on the Martial Soul Avatar.
Only the Martial Soul Avatar can eliminate the limitations of other soul skills.
But even so, the Martial Soul Avatar itself has time limits. In short, it is almost impossible to continuously release skills for a long time.
However, nothing is absolute.
Huowu's 100,000-year seventh soul ring, Dragon Phoenix Heart, soul skill - Phoenix's Protection, brought Huowu super-strong continuous ability, making everything possible now.
However, even so, continuous output for three weeks would consume a great deal of Huowu's energy, and this fatigue could only be eliminated through rest and sleep.
In an instant, the brilliant gold jade color shone through the Dark Gold Yang Dragon Claw, illuminating the sky.
A light curtain like the aurora borealis surrounded the entire convoy, enveloping everyone except Quan Yi and Huowu.
Golden Jade Fluorescence, a skill of the Gold Jade Furnace Flame left arm bone, was Quan Yi's only defensive skill.
The light of the Golden Jade Fluorescence, penetrating the Dark Gold Yang Dragon Claw, not only did not suffer any damage, but instead greatly enhanced the defense due to Xiaojin's 200% gold attribute amplification.
The defensive power of the Golden Jade Fluorescence, constructed from extreme attributes, far exceeded that of the Gold Jade Furnace Flame Tortoise King.
Inside the light curtain, the convoy crowd was attracted by the beautiful scene created by Quan Yi. People sitting in the carriages couldn't help but stick their heads out to admire this scene.
However, soon, their gazes were attracted by the orange-red figure of fire outside the light curtain.
Huowu took light steps to the coast, stepping over the boundary between land and sea, and floated in the air above the sea.
The next moment, Huowu's phoenix eyes flashed, and a pair of gold-red phoenix wings quickly unfolded behind her.
At the same time, the Dragon Phoenix Heart worn on her left hand burst into a red fluorescent light, and Huowu's figure was instantly covered by the gold-red light emitted by the phoenix wings.
"Scorched Earth."
Huowu's cold voice passed through the light and entered their ears.
At this moment, the sea surface within a few miles began to boil violently, and this phenomenon spread outward from under Huowu's feet.
When it swept across the sea and came to the ground, the land dried up and cracked at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Fortunately, Quan Yi's Golden Jade Fluorescence blocked this heatwave, otherwise, it would have caused a greater commotion.
However, the light emitted by Huowu was deeply imprinted in the hearts of these people.
The heatwave raged, limited to a certain range, and most of it was controlled on the sea surface.
Just when everyone was curious about what Huowu was doing, the clear sky began to darken at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In an instant, dark clouds covered the sky, and the next moment, heavy rain poured down.
"Torrential!"
The crowd on the wharf began to scramble for shelter from the rain.
Dark clouds blocked the sunlight, and rain blocked the line of sight.
At this time, the convoy on the shore, through the light curtain, vaguely saw streaks of faint light piercing through the rain.
As the faint light gradually brightened, they gradually saw the existence emitting the faint light.
Silong walked incredulously to the light curtain and murmured, "What is this?"
That faint light was exactly the soul guidance device for lighting installed on dozens of steel behemoths.
