“I can?”
Jiang Wuming was stunned. He never dreamed his master would say such a thing.
“Yes.”
Tianlong Daoist affirmed, adding, “You have excellent comprehension, high martial arts talent, and hidden trump cards. These things ensure that you will become the person most likely to integrate with and control the world's rules on this planet!
In other words, if you cannot achieve it, then no one else can!”
As his words fell, Tianlong Daoist’s gaze towards Jiang Wuming was filled with anticipation.
He had meticulously set up a world-shattering chess game, his ultimate goal being to empower Jiang Wuming and allow him to truly end this war of vastly unequal strength.
Of course, there were other reasons besides what he had just mentioned, but he felt the timing was not yet right, fearing it would negatively impact Jiang Wuming, so he had not disclosed them for the moment.
“I will do my best!”
Hearing Tianlong Daoist’s words and feeling the anticipation in his gaze, a surge of pride rose within Jiang Wuming.
In terms of martial arts talent, he was second to none, and with the mysterious space, he had ten times the time of others to cultivate. There was no reason to lose confidence!
Tianlong Daoist nodded with satisfaction upon hearing this.
“By the way, Master, if true Heavenly God realm powerhouses descend from the outer realms this time, can you resist them?”
Jiang Wuming couldn’t help but voice his concerns.
Since Tianlong Daoist had come here, he would inevitably have to act.
If Tianlong Daoist could not resist the Heavenly God realm powerhouses among the alien army, he would undoubtedly bleed on the battlefield and perish.
Moreover, Tianlong Daoist was currently the strongest person on Earth in the truest sense.
If even Tianlong Daoist could not prevail, then the Dragon Country, and indeed the Earth, could very well be destroyed by the alien army.
“Don’t worry about these matters. Before the alien enemies descend, focus on sensing the Great Curtain. This time, the alien army has launched a full-scale war, and the Great Curtain is extraordinary. It’s a rare opportunity.” Tianlong Daoist avoided the question, instead reminding Jiang Wuming.
“Okay.”
Jiang Wuming nodded, vaguely feeling that his master likely had a way to resist Heavenly God realm powerhouses.
Although he didn’t know what Tianlong Daoist would ultimately do, he believed that if this battle were to end tragically, Tianlong Daoist’s high expectations for him would be meaningless.
“Whoosh…”
Jiang Wuming took a deep breath, discarding his chaotic thoughts. He sat cross-legged facing the Great Curtain, calmed his mind, and, as Tianlong Daoist had instructed, began to sense the Great Curtain carefully.
The Great Curtain emitted terrifying energy fluctuations, containing rules that Jiang Wuming’s current realm could not comprehend. However, as he sensed it, Jiang Wuming vaguely felt a close connection between the Great Curtain and this world.
This reminded him of the rule loopholes that Tianlong Daoist had spoken of.
“Master used computer system loopholes to draw an analogy for the relationship between the Great Curtain and the world, which is quite similar to wounds on a person. After a person is injured, they need to heal, otherwise the wound will worsen. If one attacks the wound, it will make the injury even more severe.
For Earth, the Great Curtain is its rule loophole. If the rule loophole cannot be repaired, the Great Curtain will always exist, but it is part of the world and thus influenced by the world's rules.
When warriors from outside the realms descend to Earth through the Great Curtain, it is equivalent to challenging the rules of this world. Even if they succeed, they will be suppressed by the world’s rules, leading to a weakening of their strength.
On the other hand, when the Earth uses weapons of mass destruction to bombard the Great Curtain, it is akin to attacking one’s own wound.
This would weaken the Great Curtain’s world rules, thereby reducing the impact of the world’s rules on warriors from outside the realms.”
Suddenly, Jiang Wuming’s mind stirred, resolving some of his doubts.
“What are Tianlong Daoist and Jiang Wuming doing?”
At the same time, martial artists from all over the world, watching through the divine network live stream, looked at the backs of Tianlong Daoist and Jiang Wuming with confusion in their hearts.
There was no answer.
Under the gaze of martial artists worldwide, Jiang Wuming, with his back to the camera, faced the Great Curtain, completely immersed in his contemplation.
Tianlong Daoist stood beside Jiang Wuming, his gaze fixed on the Great Curtain, as if waiting for the leader of the alien army to appear.
Time flowed like water, and it was already afternoon.
As the sun set, its rays, uncharacteristically, penetrated the dark clouds and strong winds atop Mount Everest, casting a golden glow upon it.
Just then…
The Great Curtain suddenly erupted with a surge of terrifying energy!
Swish!
On the platform of Mount Everest, Jiang Wuming’s eyes snapped open. The first thing he saw was the change in the Great Curtain.
The black dots within the Great Curtain had disappeared, replaced by vague figures.
These figures were dense, spread across the entire Great Curtain, forming ranks for miles, an awe-inspiring sight.
Especially the figure standing at the forefront of the battle formation, which sent a chill down Jiang Wuming’s spine!
Although the figure was not yet clear, and Jiang Wuming could not discern its appearance, he could feel that its aura was incredibly terrifying.
That terror surpassed the five quasi-Heavenly God realm powerhouses from outside the realms who had descended at the East Sea Martial Academy, and also surpassed Tianlong Daoist and Zhuge Lingjun!
A true Heavenly God realm powerhouse!
Jiang Wuming’s heart leaped as he guessed what was happening, and he looked towards Tianlong Daoist with concern.
Tianlong Daoist also squinted, gazing at the vague figure in the Great Curtain. He noticed Jiang Wuming’s gaze, withdrew his own, and smiled slightly:
“Don’t be alarmed. One day, you will be more powerful than these enemies!”
“Yes.”
Jiang Wuming nodded heavily, subtly clenching his fists.
“The enemy cannot break through the Great Curtain for a while. Continue to sense carefully the changes in the Great Curtain and the entire world after their figures have appeared,” Tianlong Daoist added.
“Okay!”
Hearing this, Jiang Wuming closed his eyes again, carefully sensing everything about the Great Curtain.
Meanwhile.
Below Mount Everest, at the frontline command center.
Everyone, including Qi Wufu and Zhuge Lingjun, had their eyes fixed on a large screen in the command center’s conference room.
While holding their meeting, they were also observing the changes in the Great Curtain through the divine network live stream.
On the large screen, besides the figures of Tianlong Daoist and Jiang Wuming, there were also the dense, vague figures within the Great Curtain.
This sudden development caused the meeting to halt, and the conference room fell into a deathly silence.
“God, the thing we feared has finally happened! According to the information monitored by the detectors, the strength of the alien army’s leader has exceeded the limit of the monitoring system, which means the enemy is a true Heavenly God realm powerhouse!”
Soon, the panicked voice of the divine network live stream host broke the silence in the frontline command center’s conference room.
Swish, swish, swish…
Instantly, the expressions of everyone in the conference room changed drastically!
Although everyone had anticipated that a full-scale war launched by the outer realms this time might see the descent of true Heavenly God realm powerhouses, the realization of their premonition sent a wave of shock through them!
Heavenly God Realm.
That was a legendary realm!
In the records of the global martial arts world, no one had ever truly reached the Heavenly God realm. At most, like Tianlong Daoist and Zhuge Lingjun, they had one foot in that domain!
“It’s over, the Heavenly God realm enemy has really appeared!”
“That’s the legendary Heavenly God realm! How can we resist?”
In the divine network live stream, martial artists from all over the world sent panicked bullet comments, their despair seeming to overflow the screen and fill the global martial arts community.
How to resist?
In the frontline command center.
Zhuge Lingjun, once hailed as invincible, stood up, picked up his God-Slaying Saber, and without a word, walked out of the conference room.
On Mount Everest.
The young man sat cross-legged on the ground, sensing everything about the Great Curtain as the elder had instructed.
The elder stood with his hands behind his back, his long white hair flowing wildly in the wind.
At this moment.
He stood at the pinnacle of Earth, gazing down at the Great Curtain, at all living beings, and made his move.
The old man’s heart, youthful and wild.
Today, dragon slayer!
