Time passed slowly in the scorching summer.
In the blink of an eye, several months had gone by.
The identity of the new Fengtian Order remained a secret, carried by a Great Power adept at stealth, who laid down array barriers at key points in various states to completely isolate Divine Thought. Subsequently, they controlled the essence of heaven and earth on a small scale, trying to improve the climate, prevent people from dying from the heat, and provide some survival water for mortals.
However, in this intense heat, the effects of small-scale climate improvement were quite limited. Even the Great Powers skilled in the Rain Praying Technique occasionally brought down rain, yet the entire Great Yong remained in scorching drought.
If it weren't for the autumn fruits planted by the Seventh Princess, which could replenish water, many people would have already died of thirst even if they didn't starve.
