Chapter 1557 - 949: Intelligence from the Endless Sea (Part 3)
Chapter 1557: Chapter 949: Intelligence from the Endless Sea (Part 3)
The entire Endless Sea is quite turbulent, with a situation far more complex than the hinterland.
However, the Will of the Current World constructed the Abyss Great Wall in the Endless Sea, blocking most of the external threats.
Most of the power of the Conceptual Gods resides there.
"The Abyss Great Wall divides the Inner Sea and the Outer Sea; the further out you go, the weaker the intervention of the World Will, but the extraction of Yuan Force also decreases, though the benefits can be greater. You can even directly seize Yuan Force through hunting other creatures. Precisely because of this, most of the races that venture to the Outer Sea tend to exhaust their Yuan Force, converting it into strength..."
Moreover, both the Inner Sea and Outer Sea are dotted with various trading zones, with Divine Level trade fairs frequently held.
There are public ones and various secret ones. The various groups within the All Gods Temple have similar functions.
"There are also many places for item trading and cultivation technique sales. In the Inner Sea, especially on the few trading islands certified by the All Gods Temple, order is generally maintained. In the Outer Sea, there are more opportunities, but there are also more crises."
Besides, Tao Yu saw the latest announcement from the All Gods Temple.
’Recently, there have been frequent activities of Abyssal Evil Gods hunting the races in the Outer Sea. These Evil Gods mostly still retain some self-awareness. According to the information from His Majesty the Taichu God King, these Evil Gods are codenamed ’Dark Immortal Kings’. They may come from an ascended plane in the world of ’Earth’, with some having already emerged to explore...’
Tao Yu felt a bit speechless after reading this.
Indeed, when I first learned the news from the Burning Legion and heard about An Lan’s intelligence, I knew things were not simple.
I just didn’t expect it to be confirmed!
Fortunately, the Current World itself is strong enough to protect everything within and block external invasions.
"In terms of brute force and scale, the Perfect World is also extremely strong, but the True Realm is too much like Taiyin here, with strong strength and heavy authority."
Tao Yu pondered for a moment, unsure if he could purchase some relevant cultivation techniques from the Dark Immortal Kings.
However, it would likely at most be the Immortal Ancient Technique, which inherently requires a large amount of Longevity Material. The Perfect World itself is depleting, and this pure resource-driven approach is still somewhat lacking.
It is best to obtain the Heavenly Covering Technique for validation.
"But what illusion made me think I could afford it."
Tao Yu looked at his current Yuan Force deficit, hoping for a chance to exchange it for something by selling.
"Therefore, in the True Realm, I must gather more benefits to sell conveniently later..."
In the Abyss, my position is right next to the Mysterious World, and I can directly report any issues.
There’s no trouble in the Current World for now, so I can indeed set off.
Although the thought is a bit selfish, the most important group of people to me are all in the Creation Ship. With my ability, sheltering them without returning to the Current World is no issue for the time being.
This wouldn’t leave any weaknesses...
Though the decision was made in his heart, Tao Yu certainly wouldn’t casually disclose his movements.
As the top leader of both White Star and Starshine, there is a tendency for Baixing State and nearby areas to gravitate towards him. While occasionally appearing to stabilize the military’s morale, there’s no need to appear too grounded.
Maintaining a sense of mystery can instead enhance one’s prestige.
"But I must first return to the Abyss to harvest the True Realm, then set up some new tasks..."
The Xingyun Banquet was originally held at Tao Yu’s request, so he certainly wouldn’t break the appointment for a smoother future.
Calculating the time difference between the two sides, it’s time to depart...
——
At the Xingyun Banquet, two top talents on the Human List ascended to heaven with one step, followed by the discovery that the Enchantress Gu Xiaosang reached the Outer Realm.
Add to that the Wolf King Tie Sheng being casually killed by the ’Primordial Inheritor’ Hong Xuanji.
The Human List experienced significant changes.
’Mad Blade’ Su Meng broke through the Nine Orifices, Jiang Zhiwei went into seclusion, naturally extending Meng Qi’s ranking to first!
There were even jokes about it appearing in the Jianghu.
They said that ’Mad Blade’ Su Meng is the luckiest top of the Human List.
However, a joke is just a joke. In the past, when ’Mad Blade’ was at Seven Orifices, he already made it into the top ten, contending against masters just short of the Outer Realm.
Now, upon becoming Nine Orifices, nobody would underestimate his strength.
But compared to the previous list leader, He Jiu, who stepped into heaven with one step, his fame fell a bit short.
Yet compared to ’Mad Blade’, another recent martial champion, Fan Changmiao, was even more awkward.
Fan Changmiao was quite reserved and only emerged as the champion after breaking through just short of the Outer Realm, a good title. But the key was that ’Mad Blade’ Su Meng was also a martial candidate back then, who chose to forego the subsequent major exams.
The juxtaposition made Fan Changmiao’s martial champion title seem like it was picked up.
For a time, there was endless debate over who was luckier—the picked-up martial champion or the picked-up Human List leader.
And amid such turmoil, the time for the Qionghua Banquet drew increasingly near...
...
Three months after New Year’s, the chill gradually faded away, but the continuous drizzle added a touch of dampness to the season.
Under the fine rain, dressed in white with an oiled paper umbrella, Meng Qi had arrived before the city gates of the Divine Capital.
The elegance of holding an umbrella in the rain made it hard to associate him with titles like ’Mad Blade’ or ’Mang Jinkang’.
Looking at the magnificent city gates ahead, Meng Qi could catch a glimpse of the flourishing corner of the Great Jin’s imperial city.
