"Whoosh!"
In a silent hall, Long Chen sprang up from the ground, cautiously scanning his surroundings.
"Don't be nervous, this is my War God Hall." At that moment, the voice of the Hall Master rang out.
It turned out that Long Chen had been carried back to Lingxiao Academy and directly brought into the Hall Master's presence, where the Hall Master personally protected Long Chen.
"Thank you, Hall Master." Long Chen cupped his fists.
"How do you feel?" The Hall Master asked.
Long Chen sensed his body, and as his thoughts flowed, essence, energy, and spirit merged. Spiritual blood, roots, and bones had become one, and his body was like a furnace, fusing all his power.
Now, Long Chen could use a single energy or fuse all his powers together. He couldn't imagine what kind of destructive force would unleash when all the powers were combined.
"It feels really good." Long Chen said excitedly.
"You're too greedy, kid. The road ahead will probably be extremely tough." The Hall Master said solemnly.
"What?" Long Chen was taken aback.
"You control too much power, which has aroused heavenly jealousy. Therefore, the hand of heaven will descend. The next heavenly tribulation will surely be even more terrifying.
Moreover, controlling so much power will seriously slow down your cultivation progress, and you will consume too much energy. "The Hall Master said.
"Well, it's fine. I'm an alchemist myself, so I can support myself." Long Chen said with a smile.
The Hall Master shook his head and said, "Under the heavenly way, it's like raising whales in the deep sea. Let me ask you, have you ever seen a whale bigger than the sea?" "
That's ..." Long Chen was stunned.
"Right now, you don't have any restrictions, but when you step into immortality one day, this world might not be able to support you.
If you still wish to continue cultivating along this path, you need to plan ahead and prepare for the worst rather than digging a well while thirsty. "The Hall Master said.
"I understand, junior!"
Long Chen knew that the Hall Master was reminding him that this path might be a dead end. Even if the heavenly tribulation couldn't kill him, sooner or later this world would no longer be able to tolerate him, so he needed to find a way as soon as possible.
After leaving the Hall Master's place, Long Chen saw Bai Shishi and Yu Qingxuan. It turned out they had been worried all along, waiting outside the hall gate. When Long Chen came out, the two women's eyes immediately reddened.
Long Chen hurried to comfort them, thinking of how the two of them had been so anxious and heartbroken. He pulled them to find a quiet spot and asked about the current situation.
"The human race is extremely chaotic now. Many have sided with the alien races. Countless humans have flooded into both the Great Wilderness Realm and the Unmanned Realm, and some forces have even moved their sects there." At this point, Bai Shishi's face was filled with anger. Clearly, this group was hopelessly foolish.
Long Chen held Bai Shishi's jade hand and smiled slightly, saying, "Don't be angry. That's human nature—there's nothing you can do." If
it were somewhere else, being held by Long Chen like this, Bai Shishi would definitely be very shy. But there were only three of them here, and her pretty face was only slightly flushed. Hearing Long Chen's comfort, her anger faded considerably.
"Is it some alien guy who promised them some benefits, asking them to help with mining, alchemy, or setting up formations?" Long Chen said with a smile.
"You guessed all this?" Bai Shishi was taken aback.
Long Chen shrugged and said, "To put it bluntly, those guys' tricks haven't changed for billions of years. They're just that little stuff left."
Whether in the Unmanned Realm or the Great Wilderness Realm, there are countless resources within, but to them, they're useless.
However, they can cooperate with the human race, turning waste into treasure: on one hand, they arm themselves with human power; on the other, they bribe some humans to divide and create internal conflicts among humans.
Now, those who side with foreign races are partly fools blinded by profit, and partly fools who think they're clever and foolish.
Fools can't see that far; they only care about immediate interests, while those idiots are petty, trying to use the power of foreign races to strengthen themselves, hoping that once they become strong enough, they can break free from their control.
What they didn't know was that the alien people were here to throw the human race into chaos. If they wanted benefits, they had to show loyalty, and to show loyalty, they had to take action.
And once they act, whether blinded by greed or acting cleverly, once the bow is drawn, there is no turning back. In the end, they will inevitably side with the foreign race and obey it.
In the war between humans and foreign races, they are the vanguard, honored guests, and the dog-headed strategists.
But they don't realize that whether the human race ultimately wins or the aliens win, what awaits them is only destruction. At
this point, Long Chen let out a long sigh, his face full of helplessness. In this world, there are some things that, no matter how powerful you are, there's nothing you can do.
"By the way, during your seclusion, the eight great kings of the Unmanned Realm and the six great realm lords of the Great Wilderness Realm have all been arrogant. Every day, someone calls out to you to come out and fight." Yu Qingxuan said.
"The Eight Great Kings?" The Six Great Realm Lords? Long Chen was stunned. What is this thing?
After hearing the explanation, Long Chen couldn't help but laugh. So the eight great kings were the nine prodigies of the Unmanned Realm. After Long Chen defeated the two-headed monsters, only eight remained, known as the Eight Great Kings of the Unmanned Realm.
The Six Great Realm Lords are the six most powerful newly promoted Realm Kings in the Great Wilderness Realm, each synonymous with invincibility.
When the two doors opened and the world was connected, they all learned Long Chen's name and began shouting, demanding he come out and fight.
But Long Chen returned to the academy and spent a whole month absorbing all his power, without responding to them at all.
Meanwhile, the warriors of the Dragonblood Legion were also in seclusion, with no interest in dealing with them. As a result, they thought Long Chen and the others were afraid and became even more arrogant and domineering.
Some immortal-level experts even came to the academy to issue challenge letters, speaking arrogantly, which angered the Hall Master and resulted in him being slapped to death.
As a result, countless powerful figures outside began to criticize Lingxiao Academy, especially some traitors who rebelled against the human race, who began to smear and attack the academy on a large scale.
The outside world is extremely chaotic now. Although there hasn't been a large-scale war, some sects have joined the foreign races and felt they had grown strong, beginning to provoke some vengeful forces.
Now, Nie Yingtian showed signs of impending chaos. Although the Hall Master had intimidated all sides in one battle, now, facing the probing of the major powers, he had not responded at all, which was starting to cause some concern.
Meanwhile, Long Chen had no news at all, and rumors were spreading everywhere. At this critical moment, there was no news from the Hall Master or Long Chen, and the human race began to gradually become unrestful.
"Long Chen, what are your plans?" Bai Shishi asked.
"Let's go!"
Long Chen stood up and said.
"What are you doing?" The two were puzzled, but still stood up as well.
"Go see for yourself. Who are these so-called Eight Great Kings and Six Great Realm Sovereigns? Damn it, there are no tigers in the mountains, yet the monkey claims the title of king?"
Gathering the Dragonblood Legion, it's time for the world to rediscover us. Long
Chen stretched and led the two straight to the Dragonblood Legion's secluded cultivation site.
