With just a glance, Qiu Tu felt his gaze irresistibly drawn to the two bottles of potion, as blue as the deep ocean.It was as if some invisible force was tugging at his spirit, pulling him deeply into the gem-like liquid, leaving him unable to extricate himself for the moment. It seemed that the unique salty scent of the ocean once again lingered in his nostrils; the low chanting of waves hitting the shore echoed in his ears, as the vast expanse of the sea emerged before his eyes…. Fortunately, with the experience he just had, he didn't sink into the sea but, with a jolt, managed to break free from the hallucination. Shen Lingshuang was a bit surprised that he was able to break free from the hallucination for the second time so quickly and exclaimed, "Qiu Tu, you might actually have the talent to become a Cataclysmic." "I remember I went through a dozen similar hallucinations and had to be awakened by my father each time." Having said that, she glanced down at the two bottles of Cataclysmic Potion she had concocted, feeling a little sentimental, "Also, although I'm not sure what exactly happened this time." "But I always feel that the Cataclysmic Potion I concocted this time seems different from before." She tilted her head, her eyes swirling with the light of reminiscence, and said cutely, "I feel that the effects of this batch of potions are particularly strong. Even I fall involuntarily into hallucinations every time I look at them." "This is a phenomenon I have never encountered before." After hearing this, Qiu Tu immediately had a guess in his heart: Perhaps... thanks to the right time, place, and people, the probability of Cataclysm Awakening for these two potions was indeed high enough, which is why there was such a special phenomenon. Thinking this, he took one bottle of potion from Shen Lingshuang's hand, and then glanced over to the upper left corner of his field of vision. In the upper left corner, two small treasure chests were flashing, with no new crisis countdown emerging. 'It seems there's at least no danger to life.' Thinking this, Qiu Tu made up his mind. He shook the bottle of potion. "Qiu Tu!" As the potion swayed, the hallucination slowly began to appear again. But at that moment, Shen Lingshuang's crisp voice sounded in Qiu Tu's ear. Qiu Tu stopped his action and looked at the young girl before him. Shen Lingshuang gently placed her hand on Qiu Tu's hand, her beautiful eyes filled with worry, "Are you... really sure you want to drink this potion?" Sensing the girl's nervous mood, Qiu Tu made a light-hearted joke, "What? Did you spit in it?" Hearing Qiu Tu's ill-timed joke, Shen Lingshuang's face turned red as she protested, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Qiu Tu smiled and patted her head, then said softly, "Don't worry. I'll be fine." "Besides, I've made proper arrangements for all of you." With that, his smile was warm and full of strength, "If I don't come back, 'Eagle' will take you away from Xinjie City and send you home." "I've prepared two little goldfish and two hundred Silver Yuan for you, which should be enough for your fare back to the Third Sanctuary." Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shen Lingshuang turned pale, her grip tightening on Qiu Tu's hand as she clarified, "I'm not concerned for myself. I'm worried about you." "I always feel that... " But before she could finish, the hand Qiu Tu had on her head turned into a chop and deftly struck the back of her neck. The next second, the girl, with an incredulous expression on her face, slumped softly into Qiu Tu's arms. Carefully, Qiu Tu took the second bottle of Cataclysmic Potion, placed the two potions temporarily on the table, then picked her up by the waist and walked towards the door. A moment later, with the sound of his home's door opening, the door to the room next door also opened from the inside. Eagle stepped out of the house. He nodded at Qiu Tu, then stepped aside to clear the doorway. Carrying Shen Lingshuang, Qiu Tu entered the next room, where a woman in her thirties was already waiting. Upon seeing Qiu Tu, she hurriedly stepped aside, and Qiu Tu carefully placed Shen Lingshuang onto the bed. Then he instructed the woman, "Sister Xin, I'll have to trouble you to look after this girl." Sister Xin immediately responded, rubbing her hands together, "Ah-Tu, don't worry. You've taken care of us for so many years, we're all grateful and will surely return the favor." "Leave her with me, and I'll take good care of her. Even if she wakes up, I'll keep her calm." Qiu Tu nodded and then left the room. Approaching the door, he looked at Eagle standing by the entrance and softly instructed, "Stand guard at my doorstep." "If something goes wrong, don't hesitate, take Sister Xin and Shen Lingshuang and leave immediately." Eagle replied with a "hm," his gaze steady. Qiu Tu then took out his communicator and handed it to him, ordering, "If Old Fourth Qin calls before I come out, you respond as I taught you this afternoon." "I don't care about the rest, but most importantly, make sure he takes Qin Shuman away from the Qin Family." "At that time, there will be people from the military waiting to meet them at the designated location." Eagle grunted again in acknowledgment. Qiu Tu continued, "Over the past few days, I've got my hands on thousands of Silver Yuan from the Investigation Bureau and the Qin Family, all stashed in the black car that Qin Zhengguang brought over today." "If something happens to me, you guys take this money and drive to Eastern City in the south." "The Bureau Chief there has issues with Yan Chen, so they won't go after you. You can settle there or use it as a transit point." The Eagle fell silent for a moment, seemingly uncomfortable with Qiu Tu's plans for the worst-case scenario, but eventually spoke up to persuade, "Do we really have to take this gamble?" Hearing this, Qiu Tu slapped his shoulder, his words carrying a mixture of resilience and openness, "How can one rise above without taking risks?" "We're already fortunate to have this chance to gamble. Who knows how many people wish for a chance to gamble but never get one?" Having said that, Qiu Tu turned and went back to his room, then closed the door. The reason he had arranged everything in such meticulous detail was because he also wasn't sure what would happen after drinking the Cataclysmic Potion. Although there might not be a risk to his life, the dangers of the Cataclysmic Potion didn't lie in taking lives, but... mutation, degeneration, and alteration were all possibilities. That was why he had put everything in order before setting off on this path filled with unknowns. Like Shen Lingshuang's journey home, Qin Shuman's freedom, like the livelihood of Ah-Tai and Eagle for the next few years... In the end, there was still a trace of kindness in his heart... With this thought, Qiu Tu lifted his head and took another deep look at the dark, tranquil sky outside the window. Then he picked up a bottle of Cataclysmic Potion, removed the cork, and drank it down with a decisive tilt of his head! 'After all, I have lived again, and slept with a great beauty like Qin Shuman, it's worth it!' As the Cataclysmic Potion slid down his throat, for a moment, Qiu Tu felt a coolness spreading swiftly from his throat to his chest and abdomen, then quickly to every corner of his body. In the next instant, he felt as if he were submerged in a clear, azure ocean once more. Only this time, it was different from the previous experiences; he dived straight into the depths of the sea, or rather... he became the sea itself. His thoughts began to disperse and drift away, like raindrops scattered by the wind, merging into rivers, lakes, and oceans. He seemed to become the water droplets, the morning dew, the storms of the Cataclysmic world. He roamed with the storms over every inch of land controlled by the Sanctuaries! It was an indescribably mystical feeling, yet it immersed him... However, the peaceful moment was short-lived. As he delved deeper, the mist around him turned increasingly viscous and filthy, as if the clear waters had transformed into foul, thick bitumen. His entire being felt encased, becoming rigid and slow, even breathing became difficult. Darkness intensified along with the sense of danger, the shadow of fear, and the flames of anger mingling in his heart. At the very brink of collapse, that coolness within Qiu Tu finally burst forth. It served as his final bastion, guarding the last bit of his consciousness, and freed him from his constraints! Qiu Tu stirred the storms again, carrying clouds of mist as he escaped from the thick, foul abyss. After an indeterminate period, when Qiu Tu finally escaped the suffocating area, he looked back. His perception seemed to pierce through the layers of space, revealing a brand-new world—what was once a vast and boundless ocean was merely a small pond, while most of the world was enveloped in darkness as dense as bitumen, mud... In that instant, a boundless sorrow surged within him, as if he mourned for the entire world... A second later, he completely lost consciousness... Time passed, maybe 10 minutes, perhaps an hour. When Qiu Tu awoke from the darkness, He found his body had undergone many changes, and his mind also possessed much new information... These were the codes engraved on the cornerstone of the world, revealing the secrets of the universe's supernatural powers. Every supernatural being receives this mysterious gift upon their first awakening. Closing his eyes, he quietly sorted through the information in his mind. After a while, Qiu Tu slowly opened his eyes. The next second, his normally deep black pupils transformed into a clear azure blue. At the same time, his sight suddenly blurred, as if a layer of frosted glass had been laid over it. The material world around him began to fade, replaced by a dim, dreamlike fog that quietly spread. Looking around, the objects he saw were no longer tangible, but a collection of nearly transparent, almost vanishing lines. His gaze penetrated the illusory walls, clearly seeing the neighboring room where a cluster of lively fire lay quietly, and another of dim fire sat beside. Looking outside the door, a cluster of fire paced restlessly. Beyond that cluster, a few kilometers away, a giant shadow stood tens of meters tall, silent, majestic, and solemn... 'Era of Disaster, Boundless Heart Sea...' With these thoughts, Qiu Tu slowly exited the state of Spiritual Vision, his expression complex. The information obtained from the origin of the world finally allowed him to complete the secrets of this world...
