Chapter 412 No More
As the gatekeeper's cocoon tore through the void far beyond the entrance to the Ruins of the Land of Nothingness, the golden light of Mars trembled slightly on the South Heavenly Gate city wall.
This tremor was extremely faint, so faint that even the core fragments of Mount Sumeru could not detect any abnormality in the laws, but Laozi's Dao heart sensed it.
The Primordial Celestial Venerable sat cross-legged with his back straight, a whisk lying across his knees, and one hundred and eight transparent runes slowly flowing on the whisk's threads.
He took the whisk from his lap and drew a very simple law seal in the air. The seal flew out of the South Heavenly Gate, pierced through the membrane wall, and flew towards the direction of the Ruins.
The inscription on the talisman was extremely brief, consisting of only three characters.
"We held on."
Su Fan stood outside the entrance to the Ruins of the Land of Nothingness, holding the Pangu Axe with both hands, the blades facing outwards.
The gatekeeper's cocoons formed an extremely wide arc in the void ahead, and there were a great many of them.
Each cocoon shell is the size of a millstone, and the dark purple law membrane covering its surface is extremely thick and dense. The core law frequency inside the cocoon shell is extremely stable, and it is completely in sync with the sealing mark frequency of the original law liquid inside the backup law node deep in the foundation of Guixu.
They are using this law of resonance to pinpoint the precise location of the entrance to the Ruins.
Each cocoon's core emits extremely weak law-detecting pulses, which intertwine in the void to form an extremely complex law-scanning network.
The scanning network has an extremely wide coverage area, extending from directly above the entrance to the Ruins to the far depths of the void on both sides of the entrance.
The flint beacon rune outside the entrance flickered extremely subtly under the coverage of the scanning net. After the flicker, the law frequency inside the rune was captured by the gatekeeper's law core.
After being captured, the core frequency of the law of the cocoon in the very center of the arc array suddenly accelerated. After the acceleration, the law membrane on the surface of the cocoon cracked open by itself, and a wisp of extremely ancient law command pulse surged out from inside the opening.
The pulse contained only four characters.
"Recycle nest shells."
The remaining cocoons responded collectively at the same instant, their arc-shaped array shifting from stillness to high-speed movement, heading straight for the entrance to the Ruins.
Its movement speed was extremely fast, so fast that the fragments of law in the void were torn into extremely fine gray-white law powder by the law trails of the cocoon.
Su Fan raised the Pangu Axe above his head, and the faint chaotic light on the axe blade cleaved a bright crack in the dark purple halo of the gatekeeper's law scanning network.
The fissure extends from the tip of the axe blade to the front of the arc array, forming a straight vacuum of laws in the void.
The vacuum belt interrupts the law detection pulse released by the gatekeeper's cocoon, and after the interruption, the scanning net experiences a very brief law blind zone.
However, the gatekeepers' arc-shaped formation automatically adjusted its formation the moment the blind spot appeared, changing from an arc to a ring, and the ring formation completely surrounded the entrance to the Ruins of Desolation from all sides.
The scanning net is released simultaneously from each cocoon shell in the ring array, covering an area with no blind spots.
"They don't navigate using the scanning pulses of individual cocoons; they rely on the resonant network of laws between the cocoons."
"The truncation of pulses from a single cocoon shell does not affect the overall scanning accuracy, and blind spots are automatically filled in within the network."
"If Pangu's axe couldn't split the network, it would have to blast a hole from within the network itself. The aftershocks of the Great Calamity could do that."
Sun Wukong's voice came from inside the entrance to the Ruins of the Land.
"Some of the aftershocks of the Great Calamity were lost during the sealing of the Ruins of Return, and the wisp of energy on the tip of Nezha's spear was also exhausted. Great Sage, how much of the original essence of the aftershocks of the Great Calamity is left in your body?"
Su Fan switched the Pangu Axe to his backhand.
"There's still quite a bit left."
"But I'm inside the entrance; once I go out, I can't come back in."
"The entrance to the Ruins of Desolation will automatically close under the coverage of the Gatekeeper Network to prevent the leakage of the Nest Shell Law's essence. I went out to destroy the network, but I couldn't get back in. My mother is inside with no one guarding her."
"The goalkeeper slipped in from the other side while I was out, and I couldn't keep an eye on either side."
Sun Wukong slammed his golden cudgel on the ground.
"No need to worry about both sides. Great Sage, stay near the core of the nest and don't move. We'll figure out how to destroy the network later."
Su Fan stared at the rapidly shrinking ring array in the void.
The circular array contracted at an extremely rapid pace, so fast that the flint beacon runes outside the entrance to the Ruins of Desolation began to tremble slightly under the pressure of the network laws.
The tremor was not significant, but the memory of the flint flame law within the beacon rune was activated on its own during the tremor, and extremely faint dark red law ripples exploded on the surface of the rune.
The ripples were captured by Eros as they spread into the void.
"The beacon rune is actively releasing ripples of law. The frequency of these ripples overlaps very slightly with the frequency of the opposite law."
"The flint beacon runes at the entrance to the Land of Ruins were carved with the first flame of the flint tree at the deepest part of the Ruins foundation. The flame contains the complete memory of the laws of the flint flame."
"Now the pressure from the gatekeeper's network laws has activated the law memory inside the beacon rune. After activation, the rune is releasing the aftershocks of the Flint Law outward on its own."
"Although this aftershock is extremely weak, the part where the law frequency overlaps with the opposite frequency law is enough to serve as a trigger."
"Using this aftershock as a trigger, I will draw out the laws of different frequencies from the lines on my fingertips ahead of time."
"After the law of different frequencies is drawn out, there is no need to spread the entire barrier. It is only necessary to inject an extremely thin beam of law into the weakest point of the ring array to disrupt the resonance frequency of the laws within the network."
"After the network is messed up, the gatekeeper needs time to recalibrate the network. The calibration time is the time window. Within this time window, the law of different frequencies lays out a barrier, and Pangu's axe cleaves the gatekeeper, both sides proceeding simultaneously. Is the time window enough?"
Eros stood at the edge of the Ruins foundation, activating all ten transparent law patterns on his hands.
"enough."
"However, during the process of the aftershocks of the Flint Law of the Beacon Rune being used as a catalyst, the rune itself will be briefly covered by the Law Frequency of the Different Frequency Law. During the coverage, the Law Resonance between the Beacon Rune and the South Heavenly Gate will be temporarily interrupted."
"After the interruption, the anchoring state of the laws at the entrance to the Ruins of Desolation will be temporarily loosened. During this period of loosening, if the gatekeeper discovers the entrance, the coordinates can be locked directly without the need for a network."
Xu placed his right hand on his chest.
"How long is the brief respite?" Su Fan asked.
"Extremely short. The memory of the flint flame law within the beacon rune is extremely ancient and stable, and the law of different frequencies cannot cover it for too long."
"But once the coordinates are locked by the gatekeeper during the loosening period, the coordinates will be sealed into the core of the gatekeeper's laws after the inter-frequency barrier is fully deployed, and the barrier cannot stop the gatekeeper who has already locked the coordinates."
"We need something to draw the gatekeepers' perception of the laws in another direction while loosening the barrier, so they can't focus on scanning the entrance to the Ruins of Desolation."
The Ruins synchronously transmit the changes in the beacon rune law state sensed by the heart's pulse network to everyone.
"The thing that attracts the gatekeeper's law perception system must have a law frequency that is completely synchronized with the frequency of the sealing mark inside the backup law node deep within the Ruins Foundation, because the gatekeeper is locking onto that mark."
"Things of the same frequency release law fluctuations in the void. The gatekeeper's network will automatically misinterpret the fluctuations as marker signals and turn them all in that direction."
"The original liquid of the Nest Shell Law inside the backup Law Node deep in the Guixu Foundation has been completely released, but the original liquid was compressed into countless Hui Yuan before being released, and extremely weak Law Crystal residue was produced during the compression process."
"The crystal remains on the inner wall of the node, and the crystal's law frequency is completely synchronized with the sealing mark. Take the crystal out and place it in the void to activate it with the aftershocks of the Flint Law. After activation, the crystal will release a very brief fluctuation of the Nest Shell Law."
"The fluctuations didn't last long, but they were enough to draw all the gatekeepers' attention to the crystallization direction."
"The crystal is placed deep in the void, far from the entrance to the Ruins of Desolation. All the gatekeepers turn towards the crystal, so it will not be detected while the entrance is weakening."
Eros aimed ten beams of light from both hands simultaneously at the opening of the backup law node deep within the foundation of the Ruins.
Su Fan slung the Pangu Axe over his shoulder.
"In the Void, the heart network synchronizes the location of the node's opening with Eros. Eros takes the crystal, activates it, and places it deep in the void as bait."
"While the beacon rune is used as a trigger by the law of different frequencies, the decoy simultaneously releases the fluctuations of the law of the nest shell. The gatekeepers, forming a network, are attracted by the decoy, and the entrance becomes loose and goes undetected."
"After the Law of Different Frequency was drawn from the patterns on Eros's fingertips, it struck the weakest point of the ring array directly. After the network was disrupted, Pangu cleaved the gatekeeper with his axe, and the barrier expanded in tandem. The time window was between the disruption of the network and the gatekeeper's recalibration."
Xu removed his right hand from his chest, and the heart network synchronously transmitted the precise location of the crystal residue at the opening of the backup law node to Eros.
The Eros Ten-Finger Law Beam precisely struck the extremely fine nest shell law patterns at the node's opening deep within the Guixu foundation.
The remaining law crystals at the healing point peeled off on their own the moment the beam of light touched them. After peeling off, the crystals were only the size of rice grains, and the nest shell law patterns flowing on the surface were extremely faint and ancient, so ancient that they were completely of the same origin as the law membrane wall at the entrance of the Ruins.
He held the crystal in his palm and flicked it into the depths of the void. The crystal transformed into a faint dark golden light, piercing through the membrane and flying into the depths of the void, away from the entrance to the Land of Ruins.
Upon reaching the designated location, the crystal automatically activates in the void, releasing extremely brief and weak fluctuations of the Nest Shell Law.
The frequency of the fluctuation is completely synchronized with the frequency of the law marked inside the backup law node.
The gatekeeper ring array turned collectively the instant it detected the fluctuation, and all the law detection pulses from the cocoons pointed towards the crystallization direction.
The network's attention was drawn to the decoy.
Just as the decoy was activated, the memory of the different frequency law sealed inside the ten transparent law patterns on Eros's hands was prematurely activated by the aftershocks of the flint law from the beacon rune.
Ten beams of gray light, representing the laws of nature, shot out simultaneously from their fingertips. The beams converged in the void into an extremely thin beam of light representing different frequencies. The beam struck the surface of the gatekeeper cocoon shell in the very center of the ring array, the one that had first released the recycling command.
The beam of light penetrated the outer layer of the cocoon's law membrane and struck the very center of the law core inside the cocoon. The resonant frequency of the law inside the core was completely disrupted the moment it came into contact with the law of the opposite frequency.
The network collapsed layer by layer from the very center outwards at an extremely rapid pace. It was so fast that the gatekeeper cocoons surrounding the ring array did not have time to recalibrate the network before it had all entered a state of chaotic laws.
In a state of chaos, the Gatekeeper's core of law cannot release any scanning pulses or execute retrieval commands.
The time window has opened.
Su Fan made his move at the same instant.
Pangu Axe was switched from backhand to forehand, and the will of all living beings was poured into the axe blade, making the chaotic original color light on the axe blade extremely bright in the void.
He rushed to the front of the circular array, and his axe blade cleaved the thickest causal law pattern on the surface of the outermost gatekeeper cocoon.
The law membrane of the cocoon cracked open with a deep gash the moment it came into contact with the primordial light of chaos. A large amount of dark purple law liquid gushed out from inside the gash, and the liquid was evaporated into nothingness by the will of all living beings in the void.
The gatekeeper's true form inside the cocoon is exposed in the void.
The gatekeeper's form is completely different from Eros and Erebus. It is not a living law symbiote, but an extremely pure law aggregate. At the very center of the aggregate's core is a bright dark red dot.
Inside the light spot were instructions for recycling the nest shell, personally inscribed by the origin of the Old Domain Laws.
Su Fan aimed the axe blade at the light spot and chopped it down. The light spot exploded the moment it touched the axe blade, and the command was forcibly erased by the will of the Path of All Beings.
The first cocoon shell shattered into extremely fine law powder. The powder was swept away by the law ripples generated by the spread of the opposite frequency law barrier in the void, and was absorbed and transformed into the barrier's own law structure.
After the transformation, the residual laws inside the powder are completely neutralized by the laws of different frequencies, and will no longer be reused by the gatekeeper network.
Under the continuous output of Eros's ten beams, the frequency barrier began to spread outwards from directly above the entrance to the Ruins of Desolation.
The spread was extremely fast, so fast that the law patterns at the edge of the barrier left extremely long gray light law trails in the void.
Erebus stood at the edge of the barrier. As the extremely thick dark purple law membrane around him assisted Eros in calibrating the accuracy of the law frequency at the edge of the barrier, it was eroded by the law frequency of the opposite frequency law, and extremely fine gray-white law cracks appeared on the surface of the membrane.
What gushed out from the depths of the crack was not the liquid of the laws, but extremely faint grayish-white remnants of the laws, which were completely of the same origin as the remnants that gushed out from Eros's fingertips when he spread out the membrane of different frequencies.
"The calibration accuracy at the edge of the barrier is continuously improving. The improvement is faster than expected because the core of causality within Erebus and my core of law resonated briefly during the signing of the draft agreement, leaving a very weak adaptation of the opposite frequency law deep within his core."
"When he's calibrating the precision of the barrier's edge now, the backlash from the Different Frequency Law is much milder than normal, and the calibration speed is at least 30% faster."
"After the barrier is fully extended, the cracks on the membrane around his body will heal after a period of time. Once healed, extremely fine gray-white law patterns will remain on the membrane, which are of different origin but the same frequency as the patterns on my fingertips. In the future, if the law of different frequencies needs to extend the barrier again, his patterns can also serve as a catalyst."
Eros's voice came from the edge of the barrier.
When Su Fan shattered the seventh gatekeeper cocoon, the inter-frequency barrier had already spread to both sides of the entrance to the Ruins of Desolation.
After the network was disrupted, the gatekeeper cocoons inside the ring array entered a very brief state of law chaos. In this chaotic state, they were unable to release scanning pulses or execute retrieval commands.
But the chaos is subsiding.
The dissipation was slow because the inter-frequency barrier continuously released extremely weak ripples of law during its expansion. These ripples bounced repeatedly within the gatekeeper's law core, prolonging the chaotic state for a considerable time.
However, the core of the Gatekeeper's Law has an extremely strong self-repairing ability, and the repair speed is accelerating. After the acceleration, the chaotic state will soon end.
After the event ends, the gatekeeper will recalibrate the network. The extremely short window of time between the network recalibration and the completion of the inter-frequency barrier deployment is the last period of time that needs to be used to stall the gatekeeper.
Su Fan hoisted the Pangu Axe onto his shoulder, while the law powder formed from the shattered cocoon shell of the gatekeeper slowly drifted away in the void.
In the depths of the distant void, the crystal of the Nest Shell Law Essence that Eros had used as bait to launch was still continuously releasing extremely weak Law fluctuations. The frequency of these fluctuations had begun to decay, decaying to the edge of the gatekeepers' network's perception limit.
Soon the fluctuations will completely dissipate, and once they do, the bait will become ineffective, and all the gatekeepers will turn towards the entrance to the Ruins.
The heterogeneous frequency barrier is still one step away from being fully deployed.
"The decoy is almost worn out. The barrier is only one section short of being laid. We need to stall a little longer."
Eros's voice came from the edge of the barrier, his speech slightly faster than before.
Sun Wukong extended his golden cudgel from inside the entrance to the Land of Ruins, the tip of the cudgel piercing through the membrane of the entrance's laws, its tip enveloped in extremely dense and bright silver-white arcs of the aftershocks of the great calamity.
An electric arc exploded in the void surrounding the entrance, creating a ring of extremely bright shockwaves of the laws.
The frequency of the shockwave's laws is completely different from the chaotic frequency of the gatekeeper's core laws. The gatekeeper cannot cancel it out with law resonance, nor can it withstand it with law resistance.
The shockwave swept across the gatekeeper cocoon in the very center of the circular array, the one that had first issued the retrieval command. The core of the law inside the cocoon was blasted and trembled violently for quite some time.
During the tremor, the gatekeeper network's self-repair process was forcibly interrupted, and the chaotic state was prolonged for some time.
"That's enough. The barrier is fully deployed."
The ten beams of Eros precisely aligned at the last gap in the law at the edge of the barrier. After the alignment, the entire alternate frequency barrier began to close from directly above the entrance to the Void Land towards both sides. The closing speed was extremely fast, and after closing, the gray light law patterns on the surface of the barrier were extremely stable and dense.
The frequency of the laws inside the barrier and the chaotic frequency of the gatekeeper's law core are completely out of sync. When the gatekeeper's law detection pulses hit the barrier surface, they were all bounced back.
After rebounding, the pulse could not penetrate the barrier, nor could it re-lock the law resonance of the seal mark inside the backup law node deep in the Guixu foundation.
The execution of the nest shell recovery command will automatically pause after the target is lost.
After the pause, the dark purple law membrane of the gatekeeper's cocoon changed from extremely bright to extremely dark, so dark that it almost merged with the void.
The ring array transitioned from high-speed movement to an extremely slow levitation state, hovering far beyond the outer edge of the frequency barrier, neither moving forward nor backward.
They are waiting.
Waiting for a loophole to appear in the law of the inter-frequency barrier, or waiting for new law instructions to come from the direction of the old domain.
However, the Old Domain is currently in seclusion and will not release any law power to the outside world during this period, nor will any new instructions be issued.
The barrier's structural rules are extremely stable, and no loopholes will appear.
The gatekeeper's retrieval operation was permanently frozen outside the inter-frequency barrier.
Su Fan slammed the Pangu Axe into the void, the blade embedding itself in the extremely fine gap in the laws at the edge of the inter-frequency barrier.
The thin golden line on his left palm activated automatically when it came into contact with the gray light law patterns on the barrier's surface. The will of all beings surged out from the line and poured into the barrier's interior, condensing into an extremely thin golden law membrane at the barrier's edge.
The will of all beings inside the membrane wall and the laws of different frequencies are not at the same frequency, but the two form a very stable superposition of laws at the edge of the barrier.
After being superimposed, the barrier's rebound intensity against the gatekeeper's law detection pulse increased significantly.
After the rebound intensified, the goalkeeper's circular formation retreated a further distance, to the farthest point.
"The barrier is stable. The gatekeepers' network completely disintegrated after the barrier was fully deployed, and after disintegration, the core laws within each cocoon returned to a dormant state."
"They will slumber outside the barrier for a considerable period of time. Once the old domain's seclusion ends, the origin of the old domain's laws will automatically take over the control of these gatekeepers' laws, and the command to reclaim the nest shells will automatically become invalid. This battle is over."
Xu removed his right hand from his chest.
Su Fan pulled the Pangu Axe from the edge of the barrier and carried it on his shoulder.
The void in the distance was extremely quiet and dark. The dark purple light of the gatekeeper's cocoon was extremely faint and weak in the distance, so faint that it was almost completely swallowed up by the void.
Eros extinguished the ten beams of light from his hands one by one. After they were extinguished, the ten transparent law patterns on his fingertips were even fainter than before.
Erebus looked down at the extremely fine gray-white law cracks on the dark purple law membrane surrounding him. The edges of the cracks were slowly healing, and the newly formed transparent membrane at the healing point was extremely thin and faint.
The entrance to the Ruins was extremely quiet. Sun Wukong squatted beside the core of the nest shell, his golden cudgel resting on his knees. His monkey eyes reflected the extremely fine law rune that Pangu had carved on the scales of the living creatures with the tip of his axe dipped in blood.
The runes were extremely stable and bright, perfectly synchronized with the pulsating frequency of the gray-white law imprint inside the flint crystal on his chest's Tanzhong acupoint.
He stuffed the last bite of peach into his mouth, chewed it twice, swallowed it, and tossed the peach pit into the depths of the void.
The peach pit spun around in the void a few times before floating directly above the core of the nest shell, where it was automatically caught by the law-like patterns on the living creature's healing membrane wall.
The regular patterns on the surface of the membrane wrapped around the peach pit and then dispersed on their own.
"My mother was counting the scales just now, and when she got to this rune, she paused. She said this rune has one more law pattern than the last one."
"I asked her what the extra mark was, and she said she didn't know, but she sensed that the frequency of the law of that mark overlapped very slightly with that of the gatekeeper outside the barrier."
"The overlapping bands are extremely narrow, but enough to allow her scales to continuously absorb fragments of the old domain law imprints within the gatekeepers while they are asleep."
"After absorption, the brand fragments will automatically condense into extremely fine law patterns on the scales. Each pattern is a memory backup of the gatekeeper's law core."
"Once the old domain's seclusion ends, these memory backups will be automatically transmitted back to the origin of the old domain's laws. After they are transmitted back, the old domain will be able to know what the first branch gatekeeper did during his slumber."
"My mother said she didn't want to get involved in these things. It's just that she has a few more lines on her scales now, making it harder to count them than before. It takes her longer to count them all."
Nezha, carrying the Fire-Tipped Spear, leaned against the edge of the inter-frequency barrier. The law mark on his left shoulder was extremely faint under the gray light of the barrier.
After listening to Sun Wukong's message, he remained silent for a moment, then slammed his Fire-Tipped Spear to the ground.
"After the gatekeeper's memory backup was transmitted back to the Old Domain, the source of the Old Domain's laws knew the whole truth about the underground exploration project."
"The gatekeeper of the first branch carried out the order to reclaim the nest shells behind the back of the old domain, which is an extremely serious violation of the laws of the old domain."
"After the seclusion of the Old Domain ends, the status of the First Branch in the Extraterrestrial God Alliance may be completely overturned."
"The core driving force behind the second branch's underground exploration plan is the gatekeeper of the first branch, and the faction within the second branch that advocates exploration is also involved. Once the old domain has dealt with the first branch, the second branch's exploration faction will be the next target."
"Over there, in the origin of the extraterrestrial gods, the internal divisions of the three branches have already begun."
Eros looked down at the ten transparent law patterns on his fingertips, his voice extremely calm and steady.
"After the split begins, the neutral stance of the third branch will be more secure. The second branch, the Erebus faction, advocates for a complete abandonment of external expansion, which the third branch unanimously supports. The gatekeeper of the first branch will be held accountable according to the laws after the seclusion of the Old Domain."
"The factions that advocated exploration in all three branches were marginalized."
"The boundary of laws between the primordial world and the origin of the extraterrestrial gods has been upgraded from a physical barrier called the membrane to a symbiotic system of laws jointly maintained by the three branches of factions that advocate peace."
"During the period of seclusion of the Old Domain, this system was operated jointly by three nodes: Guixu, Nantianmen, and Xujindi."
"After the seclusion of the Old Domain ends, the Origin of the Old Domain Laws will formally certify this system as the highest arbiter of the Law Symbiosis System."
Xu placed his right hand on his chest, and the heart's pulse beat very steadily.
The golden light of Mars spread steadily across the South Heavenly Gate city wall.
The core fragment of Mount Sumeru and the Buddhist law fragment next to it slowly rotated on the city bricks, their rotation rhythm perfectly synchronized with the flow frequency of the gray light law patterns on the surface of the different frequency barrier.
The gold patterns on the Nantianmen city wall are still there, and the fragments of weapons from the 10,050 remaining soldiers are still glowing.
The dark gold barrier surface on the outer side of the membrane wall slowly flowed in the void, displaying its inherent laws and patterns.
The larva's sensory network deep within the Guixu foundation re-scanned the status of all the abnormal nodes of the Guixu foundation, confirming that the law structures of the five key nodes—the sealing membrane wall, the fault healing opening, the frequency isolation layer, the backup law node, and the frequency barrier of the end of the ruins—were all stable.
After confirmation, the dark red dot in the center of the chest cavity twitched very slightly, and after it finished twitching, it restored the operation of the laws of the Guixu Foundation to normal level.
The primordial defense line has been upgraded from a physical barrier of membrane walls to a symbiotic system of laws jointly maintained by the Ruins, the Land of Ruins, and the Old Domain.
The gatekeeper slept outside the barrier, the mutants slept under the seal, and the isolation zone slept beneath the membrane of the different frequencies; everything was extremely stable and quiet.
Steam rose from the steamer basket of the fried dough stick stall in the morning light, and A Dou chopped another bundle of dry branches and carried it to the stove.
The aftershocks of the great calamity at the alley entrance still danced with extremely faint white arcs of electricity on the bluestone slabs, the frequency of which was perfectly synchronized with the heartbeat frequency of the living creatures in the core of the Ruins Nest.
Su Fan hoisted the Pangu Axe onto his shoulder and flew towards the fried dough stick stall.
Old Zhang had just taken the fried dough sticks out of the oil pan and placed them on oil paper to drain the oil, his apron was covered with freshly splattered oil stains.
Su Fan sat down on the low stool, leaned the Pangu Axe against the stool leg, took out his phone from his pocket, opened the live streaming app, pointed the camera at the fried dough stick stall's oil pan, and leaned it against the vinegar bottle.
Then he reached out and grabbed a freshly fried dough stick, took a bite, chewed it twice, and swallowed it.
The fried dough sticks are crispy, and the primordial chaos is stable.
