Otherworldly Desert Dust

Chapter 341: The Owed Dance



On the square, people danced gracefully to the music, dressed in ancient costumes, but the tunes were light-hearted. The beautiful dancers incorporated some soft and slow dance moves into a modern style, adding a sense of strength and visual impact. Wu Hen noticed one of the young dancers who bore a resemblance to his own sister and couldn't help but take a few extra glances. He remembered how Yu Yu used to record house dances with her phone, and at that time, he often disliked it, criticizing her for not having enough flesh on her bones, making her look like a White Bone Demon. Now, thinking back, he realized he had been too harsh; she danced for the mood, not for others to watch. On the square, there were other performances, including traditional acrobatics and street rock, and some companies prepared fireworks drones on skyscrapers for advertising purposes, enhancing their popularity while providing everyone a romantic experience. "I still owe you something," Ruan Muhuan suddenly said. "What?" Wu Hen came back to his senses. Ruan Muhuan didn't answer immediately but instead took off the shawl she was wearing and walked toward those young dancers. She spoke a few words to the girls, and smiles appeared on their faces before they gathered around her. Wu Hen was initially puzzled, but just as he approached, a lively tune started playing, and he saw Ruan Muhuan in the middle of those young dancers, dancing gracefully with them. Her hair, previously pulled up, cascaded freely, moving silkily with her movements. Her dancing was both powerful and flexible, beautifully accentuating the curves of the female form, and with the company of those young dancers, she captivated the attention of many onlookers who stopped to watch... The young dancers exuded a cute style, brimming with youthful vitality. And Ruan Muhuan, exuding a style of pure desire, was both sexy and glamorous, her graceful figure and fair skin formed a striking contrast with the girls, yet their dancing was so well coordinated, it seemed as though they were not a hastily formed group but rather a dance team that had been polished over many years. The dynamic scenes across the entire square were clearly orchestrated, and as more spectators gathered, the musical fountain restarted, spraying warm sprays into the air. In the neon lights, it turned into a rainbow shower, raining down on the dancers, their delicate faces and captivating figures surrounded by a cluster of young girls and a woman where classical and modern styles melded perfectly, her eyes shining with a starry radiance, not shining for anyone, just blossoming with her unique flair. Wu Hen was initially astonished. He didn't know when Ruan Muhuan had learned this impromptu dance. But on closer thought, as a martial arts prodigy, she could remember complex martial arts moves after a single look, so how difficult could these free and easy dances be for her? She had memorized them after just one viewing, and being a valkyrie, no one could match her coordination, and she could perform the dance with even more flexibility and flair. It turned out, she still remembered that she owed him a dance. Wu Hen sat down, joining the audience, his heart inexplicably calming down. The world is unknown, perhaps boundless, but the brilliance of life is eternal; time will not fade this moment's beauty but will make it shine brighter in memory. Across the starlit sky, the Silver Jade Stars hung high. Nuwa God End crossed mountains and seas, heading toward the border of the True Martial Super Continent, Sky Shadow flickered like Mirage amid the undulating green mountains and churning blue seas, gradually becoming distant. Towards the direction of Cang Chu Divine Realm on the super continent, there lay a tranquil snowfield. The snowfield was mild, posing little danger, merely draping the Nuwa Divine Tree in silver, and even the world within the homeland fluttered with clean silver snow, covering the bustling cities and beautiful mountains with an exquisitely beautiful silver veil. During the weakened phase of Nuwa God End, external extreme weather could affect the homeland; in the past, the entire world would have entered a harsh winter, with utter stillness, life covered by the cold snow... But now, the divine barriers had been strengthened in the True Martial Super Continent, protecting against severe weather disasters on the thin realm's periphery, merely allowing a gentle snow, letting the billions within the homeland know they were now navigating towards an otherworldly snow realm. It seemed there were hardly any Human Clan activities in the snow realm. Some people tried wearing virtual helmets, hoping to explore this white otherworldly realm, seeking resources of this unknown universe, but they eventually woke up within the True Martial Super Continent... However, a few unintentionally migrated to Cang Chu Divine Realm, where they had begun to settle down slowly, exploring the dangers and challenges for the human tribes in advance. Officials had also informed the public earlier that Cang Chu Divine Realm was their anchorage; those who wished to stay on the True Martial Super Continent could apply through Divine Realm to remain there as Desert Dust Life. Regarding the question raised by Ruan Muhuan, Wu Hen also specifically sought out Li Feng. Chief Li told Wu Hen that the technology was not particularly complex and that some civilizations in the Cang Chu Divine Realm had even surpassed theirs in technological advancements. By seeking guidance from them, they could achieve it. "You've encountered Soul Nesting Wood before, haven't you?" Li Feng said. "Oh, right." Wu Hen nodded. "You can think of Soul Nesting Wood as a dandelion seed scattered into the otherworldly realm by Nuwa God End, it also serves as a gateway for souls to access the inner world of Nuwa God End. As the descendants of Nuwa God End, once we acquire Yuan You, we'll be summoned back, but for life forms from other tribes to enter Nuwa God End, they can do so through Soul Nesting Wood... We are now also extracting Crystal Root and Life Flower Cabin from it. What you mentioned is not difficult to achieve, but to use this gateway, we need to install a firewall on it. Otherwise, if any beings carrying terrible cosmic viruses sneak in, it will be difficult for us to fend off," Li Feng said. "I understand." Wu Hen nodded. Theoretically, this technology was achievable, but since the whole civilization of Nuwa God End was still in a relatively weak stage and the entire civilization was still at the lower levels of the otherworldly realm, launching this technology would bring more disaster than benefit, unless a safety lock could be added to the lives entering Nuwa God End through this method to identify whether the other party was an officially recognized extra-terrestrial friend or a cosmic demon. The difficulty lay in the identification process. For instance, Valkyrie Ruan Muhuan had been officially allowed by the homeland authorities, and they could issue her an identity as a cosmic friend. If she wanted to visit the homeland, they would allow her entry, but for those Desert Dust Life who didn't have such approval and yet attempted to invade the homeland, how could they be stopped and rejected? "You don't need to worry too much about this, the Cang Chu Divine Realm will have answers. There, we can learn a lot, especially how to make our homeland more free and secure without becoming disconnected from the higher civilizations of the otherworldly Desert Dust," Chief Li said. "Are there civilizations in the Cang Chu Divine Realm that also focus on technology like us? Are they friendly?" Wu Hen asked. "Friendly is hardly the word, but they won't obliterate us on a whim either. Think of us as a small tribe on the border during the Tang Dynasty era. They are the Golden Age of Tang. If we are sensible, follow their rules, give them enough respect, and know to present our treasures to the Heavenly Dynasty, we shouldn't be obliterated without reason," Chief Li made a simple analogy. Wu Hen nodded. Untangling notions of good and evil in a cosmic civilization seems arbitrary, but from Chief Li's tone, it seemed that the navigators had made many contributions over the years, already showing respect within that more advanced technological civilization... "Are navigators quite powerful now?" Wu Hen asked interestedly. "Of course, they are among the most advanced of humanity, and many of them are even your predecessors. They have survived till now and continually provided us with the most valuable creeds for survival in the otherworldly Desert Dust. They definitely have their own unique adventures. Moreover, they've been challenging higher dimensions. Their opportunities are no less than yours. Once in the Cang Chu Divine Realm, you can also take a break," Chief Li said with a smile. "Haha, that's good. I thought the world was relying on me alone to bear everything," Wu Hen said. "But there, we will also face bigger challenges. It's inevitable to have some clashes when we first arrive in the Cang Chu Divine Realm," Chief Li said. "What about..." "Let others handle these trifles. You've protected the Pure Land Thin Realm for three years, and your cultivation is definitely a bit behind. Once in Cang Chu Divine Realm, you shouldn't bother with it anymore. We won't trouble you until the Earth explodes. This will also give others a chance to see if they can carry the banner of protecting all humanity," Chief Li said. Wu Hen nodded. Due to the temporal disorder, Wu Hen had spent three years in the Pure Land Thin Realm. In the otherworldly Desert Dust, the speed of life evolution was extremely fast, and for some individuals with higher limits, three years could be enough to reach an exaggerated dominance in the Cosmic Primordial… After killing the high-dimensional insect Black Unihorn, Wu Hen was naturally far ahead, but with three years passed, the navigators and the top-tier had also evolved and caught up. Li Feng's meaning was straightforward. Wu Hen needed to focus on meditation and cultivation, and should no longer let the affairs of the homeland affect his evolution. After all, this time it was to the Cang Chu Divine Realm, where beings transformed into stars permanently twinkling in the sky were not uncommon. If encountering life forms from sixth-class stars, fourth-class stars, and third-class stars, with Wu Hen's current strength, he was bound to be annihilated. "You are now awakened to three perceptions, right?" Li Feng asked. "Yes, I've reached the Third Rank." "Wait until the Nuwa God End absorbs the Snow Spirit Factor here, and you'll evolve your Listening Sense to Fourth Rank through blessings..." Li Feng said. "Okay, then I will go out and train, and improve some sensory power before entering Cang Chu Divine Realm," Wu Hen said. "If you have Taste Spiritual Awakening, don't just be a passer-by version. Entering the otherworldly in your soul form will bring more significant improvement," Li Feng cautioned. "I'm also afraid of dying, unless you can bless me with another chance for resurrection," Wu Hen said grumpily. "I can't do that, it's an autonomous action from Nuwa God End, something that happens by chance and cannot be sought," Li Feng responded helplessly.
