Chapter 1585: Chapter 956: Problem Half-Solved 1_3

Even for a Divine Road Venerable, it’s probably very difficult!

This is not simply destruction, not a slaughter, but an automatic recognition of friend and foe, like a decree altering reality.

Moreover, even the gray mist no longer advances into the city!

Originally, this gray mist could be considered insubstantial, even seen as a projection from a different space.

Fighting and moves can barely affect their influx, usually only with the help of the Lamp of Will from the Flame of Civilization can it barely be illuminated!

But now, just a Holy Word spoken by the other, carried on the Heavenly Constitution, instantly resolved the originally dire situation.

This indeed lets the seasoned powerhouses of the Administration Bureau recognize the status of this individual.

Although the emperor could directly occupy one of these outlet’s fertile regions, their ability among True Gods isn’t considered weak.

In its heyday, even sometimes divine spirits visited.

Yet under the current situation, a divine spirit personally arrives and must also be given the highest honors.

“How did it turn out like this.”

Tao Yu frowned slightly at the devastation of Yongling City.

He knew the general state of this city and understood that the empire was taking this opportunity to incorporate Yongling City under direct control.

But who would have thought such a huge event occurred here, with heavy losses.

Without waiting for the administration to explain, Tao Yu raised his hand and absorbed, from the core of the Floating City frozen in mid-air, a mass of Flame of Civilization stained quite gray, holding it in his hand.

He had seen Flame of Civilization before; the one belonging to White Star City’s State Capital could be controlled at will.

However, this thing was more like the Heavenly Dao’s avatar of the World Will, used to guard a land, not much benefit to Tao Yu’s Human Dao Authority.

But inside this mass of Flame of Civilization in front of him, there was an intense pollution with the strong impression of Abyssal erosion, likely the handiwork of an Evil God through a believer.

“Highly purposeful, indeed a remnant rationality of an Evil God, or a High Priest already found ways to borrow the Evil God’s power…”

Moreover…

It’s an exceptionally powerful Evil God!

——

Although Tao Yu could faintly sense the extremely strong power of this pollution, the high status of the Evil God behind it.

But since the opponent didn’t personally arrive, it didn’t matter much to Tao Yu.

Strong divine sense flooded the Flame of Civilization, forcibly devouring and absorbing the pollution within, making the Flame of Civilization emit its gentle radiance once again.

The World Will also refocused on this place, then a gentle breeze swept across, pushing back the gray mist on the city’s edge several miles, and the Flame of Civilization’s brightness also increased a few notches.

Then a warm power surged from the Flame of Civilization into Tao Yu’s body, giving him a soothing sensation as if soaking in a hot spring.

Letting Tao Yu feel a slight improvement in himself overall, from dharma body to authority, though it was just a hint, it showed the strength of the World Will enough for a perceivable enhancement in his current state.

This should be the reward for saving this city.

“Return it to you.”

After removing the pollution on the Flame of Civilization, Tao Yu casually tossed it back to the Administration Bureau’s leader.

The person hurriedly caught it, repeatedly bowing in gratitude.

“Thank you, Your Excellency, for your assistance. I, on behalf of all members of Yongling City, and the Empire, express the highest gratitude to you!”

After a pause, he continued.

“Though you may not need these, once the Imperial Cabinet knows, they will surely offer you a token of our appreciation.”

“Okay, much appreciated. I need it.”

Tao Yu nodded, as he was indeed short on money, he certainly wouldn’t refuse!

Also, this counted as helping the Glory Empire once, and the relations between both sides were still relatively amicable.

Although Tao Yu’s main objective was self-improvement, as long as he was strong enough, all problems could be dealt with.

But such naturally expanding connections could often solve some of his tedious issues.

The Glory Empire, as an established power dominating an Endless Sea port, truly understood many unwritten rules not openly disclosed in the information of the All Gods Temple, providing a reason to linger a bit…

…

Yongling City was still a wasteland, though the open flames were extinguished, the blue smoke on the broken walls and the crowds endeavoring to search and rescue in the ruins added a touch of post-disaster bleakness to the entire city.

However, more and more pioneers were returning from the Development Zone.

Though their homes were destroyed, many faces bore sadness.

But the original doom of city destruction, surviving death brought a sense of rebirth, making them more enthusiastic about rebuilding their homes.

The mutual caution and selfishness originally among pioneers seemed to dissipate a lot, helping each other with a united will, filled with hope for the future.

A black silhouette appeared above the city, Tarona dressed in a black gauze V-shaped dress, a translucent silk veil on her face, exuding a mystically enchanting and alluring aura.

Without a vehicle, Tarona arrived personally, and seeing the city’s situation below, a hint of surprise in her eyes.

As a Divine Road Venerable, she had seen more tragic scenes; the impact of this in front couldn’t affect her state of mind.

What astonished her was that this city, after reconstruction from ruins, unknowingly emitted a vibrant, hopeful feeling.

The previous lifelessness seemed entirely swept away.

The oppression of living under the gray mist seemed gone; though the city was destroyed, everyone was full of vigor, like reborn from the fire!
