Chapter 469: Preparation for War
An hour later.
Lin Ye ended the conversation with Lu Songling, but did not leave the courtyard. Instead, he walked into Lu Songling's study.
As Lu Songling said, he prepared a gift for him in the study.
In the study.
The black book is still there.
"The Book of Humanity."
This black book is the one that appeared when Lu Songling used his magical powers, and it is also the book of humanity mentioned by Lao Shi.
When Lin Ye entered the study room for the first time, Lu Songling said that he would give him a good fortune, and he learned the Three Slashes of the Soul through the Book of Humanity. However, Lu Songling promised to give him the divine blood from the Book of Humanity, but he did not get it.
He no longer needed the second half of the Three Slashes of the Soul, because his soul was split into three and took another path.
Picking up the book, Lin Ye opened the book of humanity, and new words began to slowly appear on the pages.
"You go now."
When these three big words appeared on the first page, Lin Ye's mouth twitched. It seemed that the attitude of this Book of Humanity towards him had become unfriendly.
"Hehe, it's not that I don't keep my promise, it's just that I didn't find the blood of the dead gods." Lin Ye explained to himself.
"It has nothing to do with this. The reason I let you go is because I misjudged you. You not only hold the secret of traveling between the two worlds, but you are also the third person I misjudged."
"The third one? Who are the first two?" Lin Ye asked subconsciously.
"Taoist and Buddha."
Those two...
Lin Ye did not doubt the words of the Book of Humanity, but he did not know how he could be compared with those two.
"You yourself are indeed not that great, but the person behind you who is plotting this is unimaginable."
The Book of Humanity used the word "unimaginable". Lin Ye's eyes narrowed, meaning that there was really a force behind him pushing him to where he is today.
"Book of Humanity, you are the crystallization of the human civilization of all the worlds. Is it possible that among all the human races in so many worlds, there are no strong ones stronger than the gods?"
Lin Ye asked this question because the condition set by the Book of Humanity required a drop of god's blood.
However, in the other world, there are beings like Wu Zu who are as powerful as gods, but there are none in other worlds?
"No."
The Book of Humanity's straightforward answer left Lin Ye stunned for a moment?
No?
There are hundreds of millions of worlds but not a single god-level human being?
There are only two worlds, the real world and the other world, and from these two worlds, there were beings like Buddha, Taoism and even Martial Arts.
Is it just a coincidence?
"This world was originally a barren world. It was only because of my arrival that life began to appear, and humans appeared..."
The Book of Humanity explained to Lin Ye why this world is so special.
The Book of Humanity, which gathers the light of countless human civilizations, has always existed in a certain void. This void is exactly where Lu Songling accidentally entered.
Although the Book of Humanity is in the void, the light of human civilization is too strong and has penetrated the void, forming a world outside the void, which is the current world.
"Strictly speaking, this world was not created by the will of heaven and earth. We can only say that there is an indirect relationship between it and the world. You have been to school and studied physics. The relationship between the invention of airplanes in the sky and cars on the ground and Newton is similar to the relationship between this world and the will of heaven and earth."
Lin Ye understood this explanation from the Book of Humanity.
This world is formed by human civilizations that were destroyed due to unwillingness or regrets, and has nothing to do with the will of heaven and earth. However, the worlds that existed before these human civilizations were all created by the will of heaven and earth.
If the will of heaven and earth is compared to Newton's three laws of motion, all subsequent developments are based on these three laws.
"The humans in this world are also made of fragments of the will of heaven and earth, but they are not ordinary fragments of the will of heaven and earth. You can understand that they have been purified or mutated. In other worlds, it is impossible for humans to give birth to gods, but in this world, it is not a difficult task."
"As for the different worlds you can travel through, it is because of the existence of the Lord of the Underworld. The existence of the special underworld makes it so special."
The text of the Book of Humanity is explained here.
"The gift Lu Songling originally prepared for you was to make you the controller of the Book of Humanity. He was originally prepared to sacrifice himself, but apparently the man from the outer world withdrew at the last moment, and he survived. But even if he died, you would not be able to become the controller of the Book of Humanity."
Lin Ye was silent. He understood the reason. According to the Book of Humanity, there was an "unimaginable" force behind him, so powerful that the Book of Humanity did not want to get too involved.
"Does that mean I came here for nothing?"
"You can trade with me. I have many cultivation techniques of the human race, even some at the divine level. As long as you can provide divine blood, you can exchange it for any technique you want."
"In order to make sure your trip is not in vain, I can give you a piece of news. The Way of Heaven is everywhere, but it can also be found nowhere."
After this line of text was revealed, the Book of Humanity returned to its original blank state, with no more words on it.
Lin Ye curled his lips. These people are all riddlers who like to speak half of their sentences.
Bai Jinye is like this, so is the Book of Humanity, and Lao Shi has the same character.
When he turned around and walked out of the study, Lu Songling was no longer in the courtyard. Lin Ye did not live in the courtyard either, but went to the manor arranged by the appraisal institute.
He will spend the next month there.
…
…
In Raocheng, Tan Qing, Meng Guangcun and Xue Nuanqiu looked at the message sent from the headquarters and without saying much, packed their luggage and boarded the plane.
In addition to the three people, dozens of people under the age of 50 in appraisal institutes across the country also received the same notice, and the destinations were all places they were familiar with.
Qingshan Hospital in Beijing.
To the outside world, this is a hospital, but only those who are qualified to receive advanced training at the headquarters know that Qingshan Hospital is actually a training estate of the headquarters, and a training estate of the highest standards.
Those who are able to come here to receive training are the best from appraisal institutes all over the country.
When Tan Qing and others arrived at the manor, there were many young people at the gate. Each of them was carrying a suitcase. Like Tan Qing and others, they came to participate in the training.
Everyone's expression was serious yet excited, yet there was a hint of worry in the excitement.
The Battle of a Hundred Cities will begin in one month. They can all guess why the headquarters called them here at this time. It is to prepare for the Battle of a Hundred Cities in one month.
These people are very likely to be qualified to appear in the Hundred Cities War.
This is why they are excited, and their worry is not that they are afraid of fighting, but that they are afraid of losing the battle and losing ownership of the city.
When these people saw Tan Qing and his three companions, there was surprise on their faces. Most of the people present had met them before at the meeting at the headquarters, but they all came from different cities, and there were three people from Raocheng at once.
Is this headquarters too partial to Raocheng?
But when they thought about it again and thought about the person in Rao Cheng, they felt it was understandable.
Everyone was greeting each other, mainly Tan Qing communicating with these people. Meng Guangcun and Xue Nuanqiu were both the type of people who spoke less, and everyone present knew that these two had such personalities.
Led by the manor staff, the group returned to their respective rooms. After simply tidying up their clothes, they were called to the manor's large square. When they saw the young man standing in the center of the square with a smile on his face, many people at the scene burst into cheers.
"It's Consultant Lin!"
"Counselor Lin is also joining us for training?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Consultant Lin doesn't need to participate in the training with us. Consultant Lin is our instructor for this training!"
The people at the scene were very excited. Many of them were from the first batch of trainees and had all seen Lin Ye. Naturally, they recognized Lin Ye at a glance, as his appearance had not changed after several years.
It would be a lie if I weren't excited when my idol appears in front of me.
Moreover, just yesterday, the explosive news came out that Consultant Lin had captured the geniuses of the five major sects in Tianwai Tian by himself, and this feeling of admiration reached its peak.
"I won't introduce myself. It's nice to meet you all."
Lin Ye smiled as he looked at these geniuses who were selected from all over the country and were under the age of fifty and were eligible to participate in the Hundred Cities Battle.
"I believe you have already guessed why the headquarters called you here. Those of you who pass this training assessment will represent the Institute to participate in the Hundred Cities War."
The scene was silent. Although they had already guessed it, they were still overwhelmed with emotion when they heard Consultant Lin say it himself.
"I don't need to explain the importance of this war. It is related to the future of the world. You are carrying the future of millions of people in every city. If you feel that you can't bear this pressure, you can say it now. The headquarters will not force you."
No one raised their hand. Since they were here, they were already mentally prepared.
"very good."
Lin Ye nodded with satisfaction. This training camp was something he and Lu Songling had discussed.
Although 90% of the people here will not appear in the Hundred Cities War, this is a trick for Tianwaitian, making Tianwaitian unable to guess that the real main force of the Hundred Cities War Appraisal Institute is him.
But someone in the appraisal institute must be able to stand up and rely on himself. Even if the Hundred Cities War can be won, it is impossible for him to grow in every battle afterwards.
When a nation places everything on one person, it is both a spirit and a tragedy.
Only when more and more people stand up can we truly carry the banner of the appraisal institute.
"This training can be called devilish training. You must be mentally prepared. But don't worry, I have prepared a lot of medicinal herbs for you..."
When talking about medicinal herbs, Lin Ye had a smile on his face, and everyone present also laughed.
They knew that most of these medicinal herbs were given by the five major sects, because Consultant Lin also posted the ransom list on the Internet.
Consultant Lin is not afraid that anyone will covet the treasures on the list because no one dares to snatch them. Revealing the list will greatly boost the morale of the appraisal institute, but it will also hit the morale of the major sects in Tianwai Tian.
Once the morale of the major sects in Tianwai Tian is gone, they will no longer think about how to seize the city, but will think about how to integrate into this society.
"Let's make it short, starting from now."
…
…
Heaven beyond heaven.
In a deep mountain, a group of young talents also gathered at this moment. Yao Kun and others who had just been released by Lin Ye also appeared here.
However, facing the strange looks from others, Yao Kun and the others just pursed their lips and said nothing.
A few people knew what the looks from these people meant, they just wanted to see a joke.
All they have to do is to tolerate it, because the sect leader has already said that this time, the resources of all the sects in Tianwai Tian will be gathered to push them to the Yuanshen realm.
Once he enters the realm of Yuanshen, he will be able to avenge his previous defeat in the Battle of Hundred Cities.
Nothing is more convincing than facts and can better refute others' ridicule.
There is a palace deep in this mountain, and even many sects in Tianwai Tian do not know it, but the Jiuzhou Palace, one of the ten major sects, is located here.
"Don't worry, everyone. Unless you are a truly powerful god, no one's divine sense can penetrate here."
The master of Jiuzhou Hall was communicating with the top leaders of other sects, and there was enough confidence on his face.
"We naturally believe what the Palace Master said. Your sect's Jiuzhou Ding is a divine artifact that was created by nature. With the Jiuzhou Ding covering this mountain range, even the gods would find it difficult to spy on it."
The powerful men from these sects all believed in the words of the Lord of Jiuzhou Palace, which was why they chose this place to improve the strength of their disciples.
"According to the information I received, Lin Ye has already gone to the capital with many of the medicinal herbs he obtained this time, and some young people from all over the appraisal institute have also gone to the capital. It is obvious that the appraisal institute wants to use these medicinal herbs to cultivate some Yuan Shen realm strongmen."
"I have calculated that if we use those herbs without considering the absorption effect, we can probably produce five Yuan Shen realm masters. Even if Lin Ye is stronger, he can only deal with three to five Yuan Shen realm masters at most. This time, the resources we have prepared will produce twenty Yuan Shen realm masters in one fell swoop. We will definitely win this Hundred Cities War."
In the past, there were only a handful of Yuanshen realm masters under the age of fifty, but now that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has revived , coupled with the cooperation of some elixirs and treasures, it is enough for them to cultivate a group of Yuanshen realm masters.
Of course, the foundation of the powerful Yuanshen realm masters cultivated in this way is unstable, and their successors will be weak, but the major sects can no longer care about these, and they cannot afford to lose this war either.
Although he would lose the subsequent development of a genius disciple, he could take over a city and, relying on the population resources in the city, train a few more genius disciples.
"We at Tianwaitian will definitely not lose this battle. Taishang Zhangkao and the others have also arranged a safety backup plan." As soon as the Jiuzhou Palace Master said this, the masters of other sects all smiled meaningfully.
The appraisal institute thought they were being led by the nose by them and fell into a designed trap, but they didn't know that they were the real prey.
