"Why only fifty percent?" Xu Mo showed dissatisfaction, feeling the drift bottle underestimated him.
The drift bottle said, "Having fifty percent still depends on the face of an Extreme Dao Saint. If you're targeted by an Extreme Dao Saint, you won't even have a one percent chance. You'll be crushed with a single palm!"
It solemnly informed him that although they were both in the Saint realm, Extreme Dao Saints had long since transcended the Saint category, possessing immense power. Great Saints were no match for Extreme Dao Saints, unable to withstand more than a few moves.
The title of Half-Immortal was not given lightly; those who reached the realm of Extreme Dao Saints had taken their first steps into the mysteries of the Immortal realm, achieving a qualitative leap.
This gap was far greater than the difference between a Minor Saint and a Great Saint.
In essence, Extreme Dao Saint was an entirely new realm!
Xu Mo knew Extreme Dao Saints were powerful, but he hadn't expected the drift bottle to describe them so intimidatingly.
He looked skeptical, wondering if the bottle was trying to trick him.
However, it was wise to heed advice. Xu Mo decided it was best to avoid conflict with Extreme Dao Saints if possible.
If a fight were to break out, he wouldn't be afraid; it would simply mean reviving the Chaos Furnace and unleashing his ultimate move.
The Crossing event was only twenty days away, and Xu Mo pondered what preparations he needed to make. After reviewing, he found that most of his preparations were already complete.
He had, however, neglected his consorts.
"I should spend more time with them now," Xu Mo thought, feeling it was time to deepen their bonds.
Otherwise, if there was no progress, would the women start to think he was incapable?
For the next few days, Xu Mo set aside his courtly duties and stayed in the imperial harem, spending time with his consorts.
The women were overjoyed to learn that His Majesty would be staying in the harem for a period, though they appeared shy and bashful.
Only Alice's eyes sparkled with anticipation!
...
Meanwhile, the news that the Great Qian Emperor had allowed cultivators from the Great Wilderness to enter Earth for training spread throughout the Eastern and Northern Regions, causing a huge sensation!
Young, passionate, and ambitious cultivators immediately rushed towards the imperial capital.
In less than a day, the Great Qian imperial capital and its surroundings were packed with visiting cultivators, all of whom were at the Spirit Refinement realm or above.
"Entering Earth for training, with great opportunities? Is this true or false?" a rogue cultivator asked with doubt.
Someone nearby immediately replied, "Of course, it's true! His Majesty said so himself, do you think it could be false?"
The rogue cultivator paused, then exclaimed excitedly, "So it was His Majesty who said it, then it must be true! Coming to the imperial capital this time was the right decision!"
"Heh, don't get happy too soon. The spots for training on Earth are limited. You can be happy when you get one," someone chuckled.
Countless cultivators came to apply for the Earth training, their hearts filled with excitement!
Cultivators were rarely cowards; they weren't afraid of the dangers on Earth, only concerned about the opportunities.
Fortune favors the bold; as long as the opportunity was great enough, cultivators would risk even the most terrifying dangers.
Gongsun Rou was in charge of arranging these trainees. Following the Emperor's instructions, she issued Crossing Seals to cultivators at the Spirit Refinement realm and above, along with tens of thousands of replicated memory fragments of the Huaxia language to avoid language barriers. She also had them sign contracts, forbidding them from disrupting the order of Earth's nations.
The contract specifically mentioned Huaxia, an ally of Great Qian, while other countries were not as strictly bound.
By the end of the day, Gongsun Rou had distributed all the Crossing Seals, a total of twenty thousand.
At the same time, she prepared to depart for Earth, along with Fan Cheng and other powerful cultivators.
"Lady Gongsun, when do you plan to head to Earth?" asked Agula, the commander of the Western Garrison.
Gongsun Rou thought for a moment and replied, "In three days. I will be taking Consort Xue and Consort Li with me to Earth then."
"The two noble consorts are also going to Earth for training?" Agula looked surprised.
"It's not training. The two noble consorts are returning to their hometown to visit their families."
Gongsun Rou answered. Last night, His Majesty had found her and asked her to escort Lin Xue and Alice home when she went to Earth.
Agula understood, finally remembering that both noble consorts were from Earth.
"Since the two noble consorts are returning home, I will escort them from the side and call upon Fan Cheng and the other two!" Agula said seriously.
In his heart, the safety of the two noble consorts was paramount, and not a single mishap could be tolerated.
Gongsun Rou nodded, not refusing.
At the same time, Earth was in an uproar, the entire internet buzzing with excitement!
The reason was that various media outlets were reporting that countless cultivators from the Great Wilderness were entering Earth.
"Immortals descending from the heavens, raining down on the mortal world!"
This phrase perfectly described the scene over the Pacific Ocean.
"Holy crap! Is the Great Qian Dynasty insane? So many cultivators pouring into our Earth?"
"Hiss! That's terrifying. The sky is densely packed with people. That must be tens of thousands of cultivators combined. Does the Great Qian Emperor have that many reserves?"
"Flying on swords, riding demonic beasts, traveling on clouds... My heavens, this is too spectacular! Just watching the videos is incredibly awe-inspiring!"
"This is what a cultivation era looks like! Our local cultivators, who can only punch through steel plates, what are they even compared to? These people can at least fly, so cool!"
"Nonsense, how long have our Earth cultivators been practicing? The highest is only at the Qi Refining realm. To fly, you need at least a divine soul to control spiritual power for object manipulation and sword flight. Only the Spirit Refinement realm can achieve this!"
"Terrifying indeed. Does this mean that every cultivator from the Great Wilderness starts at the Spirit Refinement realm? Can any one of them easily defeat the current Earth cultivators?"
"That's right! We're just starting out, we can't compare! But I'm very curious what these cultivators want by entering Earth. To snatch resources? Land?"
"Damn it! What are these cultivators trying to do? Why are they entering Earth? Will they harm us?"
"If they really intend to harm us, will our modern weapons have any effect on them? Will we be completely defenseless?"
"Why panic? When the sky falls, the tallest will bear it. We just need to wait for official news from the country."
"..."
On the blog platform, posts about Great Wilderness cultivators entering Earth were constantly refreshing, with the top ten trending topics all related to this subject.
High-ranking officials in various countries had been on high alert for a long time, implementing various defenses in case these cultivators entered Earth with malicious intent.
And at the scene of this event, the Pacific Ocean, the crew and passengers on the ships, as well as adventure teams, were so stunned by the spectacle that they were speechless.
