Volume 5: The Ancient Glorious Empire Chapter 116: Undercurrents Surge, the Fall of the Holy Court
Southern Guijie, Yunhui Realm.
Each oasis still maintained its superficial peace and tranquility, but in secret, an undercurrent was already flowing quietly. A few powerful people with good status and close ties to the mythical existence had heard the news vaguely, and they were shrinking their industries and looking for a way out.
However, the mythical people who are really at the top and know the secrets clearly that there is no way out. Is it safe to move their family from an ordinary big city to the capital?
not necessarily.
But no matter what, staying in a level nine oasis is safer than staying in a level seven oasis. For this reason, even if it means giving up a large amount of family assets, it is worth it.
Safety first.
Moreover, when the disaster breaks out in full force, the Level 7 Oasis may not be able to hold on, and the so-called family business will be nothing but a bubble that will be shattered at the slightest touch.
"What on earth did the old king and his men encounter when they went deep into the middle ghost world?"
…
In fact, nothing happened.
Because the demigods and top myths like the old Lord of Chisha had never been able to step into the middle ghost world for long, they just knew that the situation was not optimistic.
Retreat to the ninth-level oasis, can the ninth-level oasis be defended?
The old Lord of Chisha said, "Judging from what happened to us that day, the ninth level oasis cannot be defended."
Even if there were no high-level evil spirits attacking, their king's capital was still unable to defend due to the constant attacks from dozens of eight-star evil spirits and hundreds of seven-star evil spirits.
The power of the ninth-level oasis cannot be squandered infinitely.
If used excessively, the Oasis itself will shrink.
If the entire Yunhui region could hold out, it would be fine. But the old Lord Chisha knew that when the disaster broke out, the seven countries would be unable to take care of themselves, and how could they spare the strength to help other countries.
As for the ancient beings worshipped by various countries? They can't be counted on.
He looked toward the north.
"Whether the disaster has spread across the entire Gui World, I don't know, but... the probability of the disaster spreading to our Yunhui Region is very high."
"Our Yunhui Realm is too close to the Central Ghost Realm!"
Like the Broken Sea, they were actually in the middle of the Eastern Weird Realm, not very close to the depths.
The three ancient overlords of the Broken Sea also experienced some ups and downs, and moved from other large domains to the Broken Sea before stabilizing the current situation.
Overlords like the Seven Star Alliance can wait and see, but if forces like their Red Sand Nation continue to wait, it may be too late by then.
But if they don't wait, what should they do?
In the past few months, they have actually been doing something.
They sent some of the country's young successors and genius legends to remote areas, and settled them in these peripheral areas to cultivate and manage oases.
This is leaving a way out.
But their ancestral heritage is in Yunhui Territory after all, and if they abandon it and leave, the loss they will suffer is immeasurable. If they have a choice, they definitely don't want to give up their ancestral heritage.
"Xinhuo Organization, do you have any strategies to fight against disasters?"
The old Lord of Chisha asked.
Sitting at the same table with him were the top figures in the Yunhui Realm, such as the Old Man in the Clouds and the Demigod Juyue.
"The strong men of Xinhuo Organization seem to be in seclusion during this period and rarely show up. However, Xinhuo Organization has released news that they are willing to assist any overlord force to advance to the ninth-level oasis... and they only charge a low reward."
"The reputation of the Xinhuo Organization is worthy of recognition. Everyone, are you ready to upgrade to the ninth-level oasis?"
one demigod asked.
They were a little exhausted during this period. If they relied on their own strength, they would not choose to continue cultivating the oasis. They wanted to find a way out.
But since we can hire a high-ranking figure from the Xinhuo Organization to assist us, then...
“It’s worth a try.”
"After all, even if we evacuate Yunhui Domain, we can't take most of the resources with us. Why not spend these resources and fight hard? Who knows, maybe we can hold on to Yunhui Domain?"
"If seven level nine oases aren't enough, then let's have fourteen or twenty-one! No matter what, it's never wrong to increase your strength."
"But it seems that the Xinhuo Organization has chosen to stick to this strategy."
"Indeed, it is rumored that the Xinhuo Organization is also preparing to operate more Level 9 Oases... and perhaps even higher levels. We have to admit that the Xinhuo Organization is far beyond our reach in terms of recruiting and training geniuses."
After saying that, the demigods were silent for a while.
During the exploration of the Middle Ghost Realm some time ago, they heard that the Xinhuo Organization had 6 or 7 high-level masters. It seemed that it was easier for Xinhuo to cultivate a high-level master than for the Seven Nations of Yunhui to cultivate a mythical master.
The title of humanity’s number one force is well-deserved.
Who knows, that torch-bearing mentor might have already entered the ethereal tenth realm.
And they couldn't even find the way to the ninth realm.
They envy.
They sighed again.
“No matter how powerful the Xinhuo Organization is, it is still insignificant compared to the top ancient gods and the evil god camp. Facts have proven that confronting the evil god camp head-on is a dead end. Perhaps…”
"Perhaps, the path chosen by the Central Holy Court is the right one."
As early as several years and more than ten years ago, the Central Holy See began to "close the country to the outside world", and they ignored all the temptations and confrontation plans of the Human Alliance against the evil god camp.
The Central Holy Court has its own plans.
A plan to deal with the world-destroying disaster.
They once denounced the Central Holy See in private, but now they think that the Central Holy See may be the hope of mankind.
"But what exactly is the Central Holy Court's plan?"
A demigod asked.
The Central Holy See's level of confidentiality regarding the core plan was obviously extremely high, but the reason why their top demigods were completely unaware of it was also because they had not paid much attention to it in the past.
The old Lord Chisha, the Demigod Chunshui, and the old woman Feihua looked at each other and shook their heads.
The old man in the clouds suddenly spoke up, "I have inquired about it before, and I have a little information."
Seeing the others looking at him, he took a sip of tea leisurely before continuing, "We have all heard that the reason why the Central Holy Court was able to maintain its vast territory despite the erosion of the gray fog and did not need to manage the oasis at all was because of a great treasure."
"And the Lord Saint who has not appeared for a thousand years seems to want to use this treasure as the cornerstone to build an ark that can avoid disasters."
"Of course, this information is just hearsay from me, and its authenticity needs to be verified."
"Moreover, even if the Ark of Salvation can be built, it cannot accommodate too many passengers... It is uncertain whether it can truly avoid the disaster."
Even so, several demigods saw the light.
This was the only good news they had received in the past few months .
Even the authenticity of this news has to be questioned.
After a long silence, the Pure Water Demigod spoke, "Everyone, let's go to the Holy Court together to find out the situation. If the Ark really exists, we need to make preparations early."
"Can."
"Let's go together."
The Holy See has been closed to the outside world for many years, but several demigod bosses who stand at the top of the Human Alliance naturally have channels to enter.
They first returned to their respective countries to prepare gifts, then met up in Yanlei Country and flew towards the end of the sky.
Some expectations.
A little nervous.
Boom——
The sky cracked open.
The earth cracked open.
Time and space seemed to be torn apart.
A vast, vibrant continent with magnificent cities suddenly appeared at the end of the horizon, and then...
Exploded with a loud bang!
Fire from the sky crashed to the earth, and the city sank to the bottom of the sea. The mythical demigods fell from the sky like birds with broken wings.
The old Lord of Chisha widened his eyes.
Unbelievable and stunned.
He murmured, "The Central Holy Court... is gone?"
…
Fire, secret realm.
Instructor Fang had just finished his daily practice and started his daily card drawing.
He clicked and did not skip the card drawing CG, but his thoughts were divided into several strands and drifted to different places.
Some people think about dealing with the accumulated official business.
Some minds are still pondering certain confusions in cultivation.
Some people are thinking about the organization's development plan.
"There are already two dominant forces ready to hire the strong men of my Xinhuo and upgrade to the ninth-level oasis."
"But the other oases under my jurisdiction have not yet been managed to the eighth level."
Time is too short.
The operation and expansion of the oasis mainly depended on the ethereal energy of "popularity". With the special rituals that could store popularity, it was very easy for him to create a level 7 oasis.
Two or three months will be enough.
Most of the time is still spent on infrastructure construction.
But if he wants to operate a ninth-level oasis, or multiple ninth-level oases, then... the tens of billions of people on Blue Planet will not be enough.
There are too few people and the time is too short.
However, each overlord has been operating for many years and has far more than one level eight oasis that has reached the limit.
But of course his own oasis was more important. Any promotion disaster could bring him a huge amount of destiny points.
"During this period, the oasis under my jurisdiction has not been able to open the ninth level promotion, but three eighth-level oases have been promoted, and a lot of destiny points have been accumulated."
He extracted.
[Hint: Obtain the World Stone (Red)]
Fang You had a blank expression on his face.
[Hint: Obtain the Law of the Void Monument (Red)]
Fang You looked slightly happy.
[Hint: Obtain the Divine Source (Red)]
The face of Fangyou shows no color.
[Hint: Obtain the Skill Seed (Red)]
Fang You: “Eh!”
He paused, dragged the information back, and checked the extraction records.
He confirmed that the skill seed he had just extracted was not of the legendary level, but of the divine and demonic level!
The first time to extract the seeds of divine and demonic level skills.
No, he should say that the highest grade of skill seeds is not legendary?
But he had extracted many red-level treasures before, so why had he never seen seeds of this grade?
"Perhaps, it has something to do with my mastery of red-level skills."
"Only if you have one or three red skills can you draw red seeds?"
He thought.
Suppress your excitement and continue drawing.
Not surprisingly , the red seeds had the same delivery rate as the gold seeds—hugely so.
He pulled out ten red-level items in a row.
Among them, there are three red seeds and four red skill cards.
That’s right, he also drew the red skill card.
When breaking through gold and red grade skills, using skill cards of this level is more cost-effective, easier, and has a higher breakthrough rate.
However, it could eventually be replaced by a golden skill card, so Fang You glanced at it and skipped it.
But he stared at the three red-level skill seeds for a long while before looking away with satisfaction.
Its importance is self-evident.
"This treasure comes at just the right time!"
"I was still racking my brains over how to pass on the two skills of Divine Demon Body Forging and Eternal Book to others."
He could only engrave each legendary skill in the Land of Inheritance, and after passing it on to an Apostle of Destiny, he would use these skills as materials to fuse together the Divine and Demonic Body Forging or the Book of Eternal Ages.
The whole process cannot be said to be difficult, it can only be said to be indeed difficult.
The last time he fused the red-level "Gate of Infinity", he only needed Irohido to learn one legendary skill, but this time he needed to learn many.
It takes a lot of time and energy for other mentors to engrave legendary skills.
The number of buildings in his own inheritance land is limited. If they are used as consumables, he will not be able to support it.
Now, with the red-level skill seed, the difficulties were easily solved.
"Of course, three is not enough. It can only be used by one or two people at most. But if it's not enough, you can keep drawing."
"Well, there is another difficulty. The incomplete legendary skills can only be cultivated to the mastery level. However, with my current attainments, if I am careful, it won't be a problem to engrave the incomplete skills into the skill seeds."
"As long as the core members of the organization learn these two cultivation methods, the time it takes for them to break through to the tenth realm will be greatly shortened."
As for the bottleneck? There is none.
Everyone has a high level of attainment in the laws, so it is only a matter of time before fragments of authority are condensed.
The road to the tenth realm has been paved.
"Especially Chi Yan. She has accumulated more than a hundred years of experience and has the complete power of killing. As long as she learns these two cultivation methods, she will be able to enter the tenth realm in a very short time."
The power of the flame is still not strong enough.
But when he thought that in the not too distant future, his family would be able to produce seven or eight, or more than ten, beings of the tenth realm, the corners of his mouth could not help but rise slightly.
In addition to the two red-level cultivation methods, he also used the remaining incomplete legendary materials to upgrade two red-level skills.
Liu Shang's Tree of Life;
Xing Jinglei's furnace-baking immortal body;
So far, the Xinhuo Organization has acquired 5 red-level skills.
Although there are three subjects that cannot be popularized, the tutors can learn and master them by themselves.
Everyone has a bright future.
Fang Youxiang.
The panel suddenly opened, and Xiao Huan crawled out with his hands, falling to the ground with a thud.
"Master, something big has happened!"
"The entire country of the Central Holy Court is shattered!"
…
At the same time, in the core area of the Central Holy Court, the Holy Lord’s Palace.
The loud laughter echoed between heaven and earth.
One after another, noble figures shrouded in divine charm looked at the three people in the air with despair on their faces.
Three ministers.
"W-why…"
The Saint in White who was stabbed in the back also widened his eyes.
The aura and charm of the three elders before him gradually changed, becoming very different from humans and normal creatures.
He understood.
The three elders looked at each other and understood.
It turns out that there is more than just Lao Liu.
The Saint in White laughed at himself, "I feel ashamed of the world, but..."
Endless light burst out from his body, covering the entire space.
After a while,
The figure of the Holy Lord in white disappeared, and along with him, there also disappeared three elders who had been invaded by different camps.
