Bai Feng drank an entire bottle of Earth Immortal Dew.
He sat cross-legged in meditation, breathing slowly and steadily.
After some time, he opened his eyes and chuckled lightly:
"It’s nothing. I used my Divine Skills repeatedly, consumed some essence blood, lost two hundred years of lifespan, but it won’t kill me."
Bai Feng spoke offhandedly.
But Ye Xiaoyao and Lufang’s expressions both tensed.
"Two hundred years?"
Ye Xiaoyao’s face tightened.
"That’s nothing? I’ll mention this to President Wan and see if we can get some Heavenly Immortal Dew to make up for your lifespan. Earth Immortal Dew is too weak, for those at the Heavenly Realm it’s more symbolic than useful."
Heavenly Immortal Dew, a Rare Treasure Level treasure.
Not only can it regenerate flesh and bones, making the dying come alive in an instant, it can also extend one’s life by three Jiazi. As long as one hasn’t consumed it before, it will be effective; and it doesn’t conflict with other life-extending treasures. Its value is extremely precious.
Of course, only the first consumption is effective.
After that, it only heals injuries.
Bai Feng waved his hand.
"No need. With the blessing of the Heavenly Person List, even after losing two hundred years, I still have five hundred years left. Heavenly Immortal Dew is so rare, please don’t trouble President Wan over this."
Ye Xiaoyao was already contacting Eternal Immortal.
"Lifespan is a small thing. The main point is that you damaged your foundation this time. If you don’t make up for it soon, it will affect your future cultivation.
Besides, from the perspective of the bigger picture for civilization, your [Heavenly Escape Mysterious Light] will be key to our guerrilla warfare in the Mystic Sky Realm. In your current state, it must be hard to use your Divine Skills, right?"
Bai Feng sighed, "Indeed."
Ye Xiaoyao said, "That’s settled, then. This star ocean is remote enough—the Divine Alliance shouldn’t find us in a short time. You can heal here at ease, I’ll protect you."
Lufang led the Myriad Thunder Hall members to bow deeply:
"Thank you, Senior Bai, for saving our lives."
Bai Feng smiled, "Don’t mention it. You should thank Vice Hall Master Ye. If it wasn’t for the Cave Heaven Treasure [Sumeru Star Pearl] he brought, I couldn’t have led you all out."
The crowd bowed one after another.
"Thank you, Vice Hall Master Ye."
Ye Xiaoyao said, "No matter what race you were originally, you are all future benefactors of the Tianxia Civilization. As long as you are enemies of the Forbidden Zone, you are our friends. We need your wisdom and skills—let’s help each other."
The Myriad Thunder Hall members included all kinds of talented people and craftsmen.
An elderly Array Master sighed, "What a pity, our research base that we spent decades building was mostly destroyed by the Divine Alliance—this evacuation was too rushed."
Lufang said:
"It’s fine—we’re alive, that’s what matters. With the Sumeru Star Pearl, we can build a mobile research base. If the enemy pursues, we’ll run until we surpass them. Besides, reinforcements will arrive soon."
Lufang thought of Lu Chenzhou. The kid of the past can now slay the Seventh Realm and is skilled in Escape Skills. If he comes to the Mystic Sky Realm, the situation for Myriad Thunder Hall will improve greatly.
They settled everyone down.
The three leaders had a secret conversation within the star ocean.
Northern Guardian King’s projection also emerged from the Lighting Order.
Bai Feng said worriedly, "I sensed from afar, and among those who just attacked us, there were four whose aura came infinitely close to Demon Saint level. Among our Xia Realm’s Seventh Realm, those able to rival them are now all in closed-door breakthrough for the Eighth. President Wan may be in the Eighth Realm, but he has major matters at hand and has to keep watch on the Four World Venerables. Right now, the situation isn’t in our favor... If only Dragon King, Priest, and Emperor Shitian could break through to the Eighth Realm sooner."
Northern Guardian King said:
"About Dragon King—I’m not sure. He’s too young, not even two hundred years old yet. Emperor Shitian and Priest both pursued the Eighth Realm shortly after Eternal Immortal Queen, but one walks the ultimate spiritual path, the other the ultimate physical path—their ways are different from ours, so it’s unclear whether this breakthrough will be smooth.
Of the other Seventh Realm, Hui Kong Abbot and Yaochi Immortal are the closest to Breakthrough Eight, but they’re only in the late stage. Without special chance, at least a hundred years of bitter cultivation awaits."
Bai Feng said, "We aren’t sure yet if the Four World Venerables will take the field in person. On our side, we lack those who can match the Eighth Realm. The senior brother of Primordial Mountain Cave Heaven should be extremely strong, but he won’t step in lightly. Back when little junior was hunted by a Demon Saint, even then he stayed calm."
Lufang said, "In short, let’s observe from the star ocean for now. Actually, the Divine Alliance has been around for a while, and previously coexisted peacefully with us, not making any moves.
Lately, though, they suddenly struck out and even accused us of ambushing the Divine Race first—there must be a mastermind pushing things behind the scenes."
Northern Guardian King sneered, "Just a baseless excuse. The Divine Alliance fears acting under an unworthy pretext and being attacked by other Extraordinary Races and the Human Clan of the Three Thousand Worlds, so they have to invent a reason. This odd ambush was bound to happen! Maybe there’s a shadow of the Forbidden Zone, but even if the Forbidden Zone makes no move, the Divine Alliance will find an excuse. President Wan has said, never hold illusions about these evil gods, descendants of fiend gods; like their ancestors, they are ignorant. We must always be ready to struggle. If the Divine Alliance starts a war, let them be our stepping stones to strengthen ourselves!"
...
Time flowed on; another half a year passed.
New Year’s, 2267.
Dragon Transformation Ancient Road, Zone Six.
Lu Chenzhou had already reached the eighty thousand times gravity region.
He stood armored and bare-chested upon the ancient road.
The Five Thunders Hall could no longer withstand the gravity here.
From here onward, he could only advance on foot. Under the crushing gravity, every cell in his body was constantly transforming—now faint golden light shimmered through him, his bone and flesh density increasing.
Every step stamped a deep pit into the ground.
Behind him, countless fighters watched in awe.
"What terrifying physical strength."
"Eighty thousand times! Even a Peak Heavenly King would find this difficult. Lu Heavenly King’s body has surpassed other fighters of the same realm. Killing across realms to slay the Seventh Realm must be true."
Star Hammer King watched Lu Chenzhou go off into the distance.
"Has he still not reached his limit?"
He cultivated the [Star Dominating Body], an invincible physique in his realm, able to tear the earth’s crust with his bare hands, crush Supreme Divine Weapons—but eighty thousand times gravity was his Sixth Realm limit.
To step into ninety thousand times—
He would need to ascend to the Seventh Realm.
...
Wanbang Elders’ Council.
"Lu Heavenly King made it into the eighty thousand times gravity zone?"
"Man, that leaves no way out for us fighters!"
"Admirable, admirable."
The elders were also watching closely.
...
One month later.
Dragon Transformation Ancient Road, Zone Seven.
"Hahaha, I’m finally here."
A brawny man reeking of alcohol.
It was none other than Alcohol King.
He looked up—the sky above the ancient road was dominated by a pale blue star, a thousand miles in diameter.
At the summit of the star lay a golden-haired man, his skin fair, features more western than eastern.
The golden-haired man opened his eyes, and said calmly:
"What’s your name?"
Alcohol King put down his wine bottle and saluted:
"Junior Asuklet."
"Not bad. You’ve only recently entered the Seventh Realm, yet can withstand one hundred thousand times gravity. Your physical talent is commendable."
"Which number am I to reach here?"
"The Dragon Transformation Ancient Road casts a reflection in Xia Realm, Southern Heaven Realm, and Beidou Region—the three Great Fire Worlds of humanity. You are the fifteenth in Xia Realm to reach Zone Seven, and the thirty-seventh across all three worlds." the golden-haired man said.
Zone Seven of the Dragon Transformation Ancient Road is extremely mysterious. Apart from those at the Absolute Peak who have already left, no one knows what lies ahead.
Alcohol King did some mental calculations.
The fighter system has seen eleven in the Seventh Realm before. As the strongest on the physical side, these should all have reached the seventh layer before leaving. As for the three who arrived before him—excluding Po Suo’s Seventh Realm, in Da Xia’s case, there should be Eternal Immortal and Dragon King, both absolute powerhouses. As for the last one, he couldn’t guess.
"But the sixteenth—most likely, that’s Lu Chenzhou. That kid is a freak, actually got to the eighty thousand times gravity zone. Luckily I broke through a hundred thousand. If he’d caught up with me at ninety thousand, that would’ve been too awkward."
Alcohol King was both amused and exasperated inside.
The golden-haired man asked:
"Do you know who I am?"
Alcohol King shook his head.
The golden-haired man smiled:
"I am Mun. The world calls me [Three Feet Dragon Emperor], and enemies call me [Undying Golden Star]."
...
Time passed.
Several years went by, and in a flash it was 2270.
The Four Giant Cities were complete. Citizens from the Four Regions moved in in an orderly fashion. Alcohol King temporarily guarded Beidi City, Emperor Hanu oversaw South Sea City, Li Xiuying guarded Shushan City, and the Yellow River Old Ghost held Yun Meng City.
This way, even when the enemy’s Seventh Realm caused trouble, the human Seventh Realm could respond quickly, saving travel time. Telekinesis at the Seventh Realm can cover an entire city. Except for some innately powerful hiders, ordinary demon ghosts could hardly infiltrate.
After half a century, from the onset of the Great Catastrophe till now, humanity at last lived in relative peace, casualties plummeted, and birth rates exploded.
Ample resources and land meant this planet could theoretically support populations in the tens of trillions.
An explosive growth of mortals meant many more with Top Class Root Bone and martial prodigy would emerge. Martial Arts in the Tianxia Human Clan now had fertile ground to advance.
At the same time, the Elder Council grew to four hundred—without even counting the Northern Alliance and Silver Eagle Federation.
Half a year later,
Star Hammer King broke through to Seven, unified the Silver Eagle Federation, and purged the stubborn old family forces.
Coincidentally—
In the Northern Alliance, an old peak Heavenly King—Thunder King—also ascended to the Seventh Realm, and following Star Hammer King’s example, reformed the Northern Alliance.
After witnessing Lu Chenzhou’s legendary rise across the ocean and seeing Wanbang’s flourishing state, from bottom to top, the Western Martial Arts World was experiencing a revolution.
Wanbang Council’s trial period still had five years remaining.
...
Meanwhile,
Dragon Transformation Ancient Road.
Lu Chenzhou set foot into the ninety thousand times gravity zone.
Years earlier, Alcohol King had trained here as well.
"This is the limit."
The crushing force was so great that Lu Chenzhou could barely maintain a normal form, flattening out like a puddle of slime.
"If not for my Withering and Flourishing Body’s perfect balance, any other Sixth Realm peak fighter would have been torn apart already. In theory, ninety thousand times gravity—that’s really only accessible at the early stage of the Seventh Realm. Alcohol King only made the leap past one hundred thousand after several years adapting at the Seventh, entering Zone Seven."
Half a year later,
Lu Chenzhou could only barely adapt to ninety thousand times gravity.
At least, he could maintain human form now.
"From now on, I’ll cultivate right here. Gravity stimulation can help open acupoints. My time training in Zone Six saw a faster acupoint-opening rate than even Primordial Mountain Cave Heaven."
Lu Chenzhou’s persistence in braving the Ancient Road was also to use gravity here for cultivation, sprinting for the acupoint barrier before Breakthrough Seven.
