An incomprehensible fluctuation boomed outward!

Immediately after, Lu Cang could no longer sense anything beyond the storm of Magic Power.

’This Magic... it’s beyond my current understanding.’

Within this Magic, he felt as if all the Space around him was becoming abstract and peeling away.

He sent out his Perception, but he couldn’t see Iz or the two Level 8 Reincarnators.

Suddenly, a sturdy figure appeared beside him.

It was Obades, protecting him.

Kumironi and Chi Cheng appeared at the same time.

Kumironi said, "Little Lu Cang."

"You can’t stay here any longer."

"We might not be able to protect you on this battlefield."

SWISH—

Chi Cheng gripped his Giant Sword tightly, a rare, intensely serious expression on his face.

"Kumironi is right."

"For now, this is not a battlefield where you should remain."

A roar filled Lu Cang’s Perception.

He could only feel that everything in the outside world was utterly chaotic; he couldn’t perceive a thing.

’So this... is a battle involving Izparut.’

’I can’t even see it? Just what is happening?’

「Extreme Battle Intent—Momentary Long Thought: At any moment in battle, one can gain an opportunity for thought that is akin to Time standing still.」

BZZZ—

In that instant, Lu Cang felt as if Time throughout the entire world had come to a complete stop.

Amidst the countless chaotic, peeling fragments of Source, Lu Cang finally saw the distant figure raising a Magic Staff.

But even with the boost from this Extreme Battle Intent... Lu Cang could still see that person, Roya, reaching a hand toward Izparut at what seemed like a normal walking pace.

BOOM!

He didn’t know what had just happened.

He only saw Roya’s entire body instantly explode into pieces!

SWISH!

In the very next moment, Izparut appeared beside him.

"We’re going to the Tree of the World Center. Find us there."

’Are you the Pirate Monarch? What’s with the "let’s meet up at the Shampodi Islands in two years" speech?’

The thought flashed through Lu Cang’s mind in an instant.

Before Lu Cang could respond...

SWISH—

...the scenery before his eyes had already changed.

"Random... Teleportation."

’I’ve known about random teleportation for so long, but this is the first time I’ve actually experienced this Magic.’

’I heard this Magic is extremely strange and special. It’s less a Teleportation Element Magic and more a Destiny Element Magic.’

’Because it really can teleport a person to any location in the world.’

’That includes, but isn’t limited to, high in the sky or deep in the sea. You could also get stuck directly inside a mountain, or even be sent straight into a forbidden zone—places where even a Level 8 Professional would face certain death.’

’The possibility of landing safely is less than 0.01%.’

"I’m not stuck in a mountain, nor am I in the sea. And I’m only about ten meters off the ground."

"Looks like I hit the jackpot."

If this were actually happening, Lu Cang figured his mind would be full of "holy shits."

So much had happened in just a few short minutes.

’How did things develop this way?’

’Where the hell did they send me?’

But this was a Future Preview. All of this was merely what might happen in the Future, not what had already truly occurred.

Lu Cang just watched quietly, silently committing everything he saw to memory.

’At the very least, I’ve gathered intelligence.’

’On the 31st, two Level 8 Reincarnators will arrive as reinforcements.’

’One is named Roya, the other Samo.’

’The entire Ruelun Continent vanished. It might have been erased, or perhaps it was teleported somewhere else...’

’I should assume it was erased. I can’t be certain that someone who’s all smiles is a good person.’

’Aren’t there villains who are all smiles on the outside but are actually ruthless and cruel?’

’Iz and the others will teleport me away.’

’It seems they weren’t confident they could guarantee my safety during a battle like that.’

’However, judging by their lifespans...’

’...Samo’s Date of Death is only about an hour from now.’

’Roya’s Date of Death is far in the future; he’ll live for several hundred more years. I also know An Zheng’s Date of Death.’

’Although I didn’t see the fight or its conclusion... it’s not hard to guess who won the final battle.’

’An Zheng dies, Samo dies, but Iz and the others still have hundreds of years to live...’

Lu Cang extended his Perception into the surroundings.

’The Future Preview can even show what happens after the random teleportation... Well, that makes sense. Being teleported isn’t the same as dying, after all.’

Lu Cang looked up at the sky.

It was still night here. A large crescent moon hung high in the sky, much larger than the one over the Secret Sea.

After a moment of thought, Lu Cang shot directly into the air, ascending to an altitude of about four thousand kilometers.

From the sky, he looked down upon the land. Below him was an island. Lu Cang visually estimated its size and performed a quick mental calculation. The island wasn’t particularly large—its area was roughly half the size of the surface of the Earth from his previous life.

There was nothing but sea to the left and right.

A giant moon was reflected on the water’s surface...

’The moon is reflected on the sea? Is this... the Moon Sea?’

He had heard that in this world, no sea could reflect the moon except for the Moon Sea.

Lu Cang had never seen the Secret Sea at night himself.

’I can’t believe I ended up here.’

"Speaking of which, if this is the place..."

Since this was just a preview of the Future, Lu Cang suddenly thought of the Pure White Descent Ritual. He wondered what would happen if he used the Pure White Descent here.

’I have enough souls.’

’I’ve been collecting souls occasionally during this time. The last time I used a large amount of them was on the Forgotten Moon.’

More than two months had passed since then, and his soul count had reached 1.3 trillion.

Under normal circumstances, the Erupting Black Ant Mountain produced about 20 to 30 billion Black Ants each day.
