Chapter 119 A multitude of enemies descend from the sky; Xia Die provides support from underground.
"Everyone... can we run a little faster?"
"I have a... bad feeling!"
In the sky, the pink puppy Mimi called out anxiously to its companion beside it.
Little Gray Fur, White Calamity, and Danheng were rushing hurriedly toward the center of the cosmic vortex.
Along the way, the creatures created by the Black Tide emerged one after another like maggots clinging to bones, roaring and rushing forward. Every step was on the edge of life and death, extremely dangerous.
Mimi's uneasy premonition grew stronger and stronger, urging everyone to run even faster.
After running for a while, Mimi subconsciously looked back, and her expression suddenly changed: "Oh no!"
Following her gaze, everyone saw smoke and dust billowing behind them, and a figure dressed in black robes appeared—the Fire Thief who should have already perished!
The people on Douluo Continent were immediately dumbfounded.
In the celestial scene they saw, wasn't the Fire Thief killed by Wan Di with a single shot a long time ago?
In the previous version, when Xia Die inherited the Deathfire Seed, the Fire Thief didn't even show up to fight for it, and everyone thought he had already died under Wan Di's spear at that time.
Unexpectedly, the one causing trouble in Ohma and hindering the re-creation of the world is actually him!
However, the people on Douluo Continent soon became extremely excited.
They were still wondering what kind of enemy Feng Jin would target after becoming a demigod of the sky.
Unexpectedly, it was this seemingly brainless, mad dog-like fire-stealer.
The thought that the Fire Thief might be torn apart by Wind Violet or sent flying into the sky by Little Ika filled them with immense satisfaction and anticipation.
When Bai E saw the Fire Thief chasing after him, a glint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes, and he gripped the Dawnbreaker tightly in his hand—he really wanted to face off against this nemesis head-on.
But now is not the time to linger in battle. His primary task is to return the World-Burning Flame and complete the re-creation of the world, which cannot be delayed in the slightest.
So he made a quick decision and sped up: "Ignore him, let's go!"
With that, he quickly retreated with Little Gray and Danheng, plunging into the Janus Secret Path.
They thought that by passing through the secret path, they could leave the Fire Thief far behind.
However, just as the three stepped out of the Janus Path exit, the Fire Thief suddenly appeared out of thin air as if by teleportation, his black robes billowing, blocking their path.
The Fire Thief's voice was hoarse and dry, broken and intermittent, yet carried an undeniable determination, "The world...the world...must...be restarted..."
He kept muttering "reboot the world," leaving the three of them, including Little Gray Hair, full of doubt.
Since the Fire Thief wants to restart the world, why not stand with the Golden Blood who are dedicated to recreating the world, instead of doing everything they can to obstruct Bai E and his group?
No matter how the group tried to communicate, the Fire-Stealing Walker only repeated those few obscure words:
"Twilight...is falling...we must...restart..."
The gray-haired boy frowned, knowing that he couldn't communicate with words, so he simply raised his baseball bat, his eyes sharp: "Stop talking nonsense, just hit him!"
Unable to reach a consensus, Little Grey and his companions were forced to fight the Fire Thief.
The Firewalker was now clearly much stronger. Although he was still using the old-fashioned clone tactic, his power was so great that even Little Gray felt a bit strained.
"clang!"
The Fire Thief's greatsword whistled through the air as it struck Little Gray's fire spear with tremendous force, sending her staggering back several steps and leaving her arm numb.
Before Little Gray Hair could regain her footing, Fire Thief had already rushed up behind her like a shadow, his greatsword flashing coldly, ready to cleave her in two!
At this extremely critical moment, a red figure descended from the sky with overwhelming force, and stood in front of Little Gray Fur.
"Bang!"
Wan Di forcefully blocked the Fire Thief's greatsword with his arm. Red crystals, like spikes, spread upwards from his toes and instantly pierced through the Fire Thief's body.
The powerful aura stirred up a huge cloud of dust, forcing Bai E and Dan Heng back several meters.
As the smoke cleared, Little Gray Fur turned his head and looked at the suddenly appearing Enemy in surprise, about to say something.
Wan Di turned his head first, looking at her with a firm gaze: "Leave this place to me and Xia Die."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly shouted and gathered immense power in his other fist, slamming it hard into the Fire Thief's chest.
The fire-stealer was repelled and landed some distance away.
Just as I was about to take action.
A dark purple mud pit instantly appeared beneath his feet, from which countless eerie purplish-black vines emerged, tightly binding the Fire Thief's legs like venomous snakes, tightening their grip ever more.
This deep, starry black-purple color immediately reminded Little Gray of the power of the Butterfly.
Even though Xia Die is currently in the underworld, she can still cross space and use her power to support them.
Although Wan Di clearly told them to leave, how could Xiao Hui Mao, Dan Heng, and Bai E abandon their teammates?
Faced with such a powerful fire-stealing warrior, the three were about to rush forward with their weapons to provide support.
Just then, a childish voice came from behind them: "Little White, over here!"
Everyone turned around and saw a triangular portal to the Hundred Realms that had appeared out of thin air. Tibo's petite figure stood beside the portal, raising her little hand high and waving vigorously at them.
Seeing that Bai E was still hesitating, Wan Di turned around and roared hoarsely, "Go!"
This resolute statement left no room for argument, and Little Grey and Danheng immediately ran towards Tibo.
Bai E gritted his teeth, glanced at the fiercely fighting Wan Di, and then thought of the mission on his shoulders. Finally, he hardened his heart, turned around abruptly, and ran wildly toward the Hundred Realms Gate.
...
After the three of them and Mimi left through the Hundred Realms Gate, they had just landed when they heard cries for help coming from not far away.
Countless black tide creatures were frantically attacking the citizens of Ohmma, creating utter chaos.
"We can't just sit idly by!" Bai E said in a deep voice.
The three immediately rushed over, working in perfect coordination, their weapons gleaming coldly, and slaughtered the black tide creatures one by one.
During the battle, they noticed that the citizens of Ohma were protected by rainbow-colored barriers.
The barrier was colorful and softly lit, with colorful bubbles, twinkling stars, and tiny spheres of light floating on it, making it incredibly heartwarming to look at.
Even when in dire straits, surrounded by barriers, no matter how terrifying the monsters outside are, the citizens' hearts are greatly soothed, and they are no longer consumed by fear.
This warm and powerful force was all too familiar to Little Gray and Danheng—
It shares the same aura and colors as the rainbow bridge that Feng Jin created before.
Bai'e ran to the barrier and gently reassured the still-shaken citizens inside, "Everyone, you're safe... for now."
A middle-aged citizen's voice was still trembling, filled with the relief of surviving a disaster:
"Thank you... thank you, Lord Bai'er!"
Bai'er's voice suddenly became low and solemn: "The person we should thank is someone else."
"Those black tide creations just now were completely unable to break through this barrier…"
He rested his chin on his hand, seemingly lost in thought.
"This energy is familiar, similar to Feng Jin's Bright Light Technique for healing people… only it is several times stronger than before."
Dan Heng's gaze was serious, and his tone was firm: "It seems she succeeded."
Bai E nodded slowly and responded with a soft "...Mm".
He then raised his head and spoke loudly to the citizens behind the barrier:
"Citizens! My companions and I have an urgent mission and cannot stay any longer."
"Before reinforcements arrive, please do not step out of this barrier—this is a miracle left by Feng Jin, who became a demigod. It is a protection she erected for everyone with her power. Please believe in her faith!"
An elderly citizen, his eyes filled with awe, murmured incredulously:
"Miss Kazesui... has she also become a demigod like Lady Aglaia...?"
She nodded vigorously, her tone firm: "We understand, Your Excellency Bai'er! We will never leave her protection until you return!"
Looking at the citizens protected by the rainbow barrier, Bai'e couldn't help but feel worried—he didn't know how long Feng Jin's power could last.
But he quickly composed himself, looked at the crowd, and spoke with a firm voice, his tone carrying a heavy promise:
"I...won't make false promises. Perhaps I won't be able to return here anytime soon."
"But even if there is no perfect choice... I will definitely make a decision that will live up to my mission."
After saying that, he didn't linger. He gave Little Gray Hair and Dan Heng a wink, and the three of them sped off again toward the center of the cosmic vortex.
