Chapter 369: An Outdated Report

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
At this moment, just as Elder Huang had said, the entire north was shrouded in the shadow of the snow monsters.

The number of warriors in the Daxia Kingdom had increased exponentially one after another. Their strength was no longer the same as before, and the defense power in the north could be said to be strong.

However, when faced with an external enhancement like the ice crystal-like hair, the number of warriors alone was no longer enough to deal with the current situation. No matter how many warriors there were, they would only be frozen even if they attacked together.

This was a difference in strength that could not be made up for by numbers.

The threats from the blue-haired and white-eyed people from the Ice Valley were only the beginning. Snow monsters of all sizes were moving through the forest, and every step they took added some pressure to the cities they passed by.

!!

“Is it the time to make a choice?”

Feng Wuji’s expression changed constantly. A disaster that could destroy a country had instantly erupted, but he was not prepared to fight to the death for the time being.

After all, he was originally a person who had been cultivating in the mountains and had just broken through to the master realm not long ago. The title of the guardian represented the level of his strength, not the deeper meaning behind it.

However, when the entire north was facing the danger of falling, the seed in Feng Wuji’s heart had sprouted. In the face of a national crisis, there had to be someone at the top. Why couldn’t it be him?

However, he felt a little regretful that his crystal shadow talent, which had undergone a further transformation, seemed to be about to disappear with him before it could play a greater role.

Elder Huang could tell what was going on with just a glance and immediately shouted at Feng Wuji, “The fluctuation of the power of nature in the direction of the Ice City has appeared only for a while and then suddenly stopped. This means that we are not being completely overwhelmed.

Moreover, if we really have to send someone to support the major cities in the north, it would be you. I’ve already done more than 100 years of hard work. If we really needed to make a choice, I should be the one to hold back the four snow monsters.

This is a rule that the Daxia Kingdom’s martial masters have tacitly followed. However, the current martial masters can no longer turn the tide, so Elder Zhang and I were too embarrassed to mention it to you.”

When Feng Wuji heard this, he immediately felt the weight of history.

Since the invasion of the otherworld, why were there not many martial masters from the various large countries on the blue planet? In the end, very few people had died in internal strife.

The reason was that every 10 to 20 years, or even once in many decades, there would always be some national crisis that required the martial masters to risk their lives.

Every time this happened, the oldest martial master had to sacrifice himself for the future of the Daxia Kingdom.

Behind them were the safety and future of more than a billion people. This was an invisible driving force. Unless one was extremely selfish, almost everyone would make such a decision.

The short exchange between the two of them was completed in an instant. The transparent flames that Elder Huang had unleashed burned the snow monster, and a change suddenly occurred after it let out a cry of pain.

The snow monsters stopped their pursuit of the two of them. With the largest one as the core, the snow monsters fused together.

A large snow beast that was nearly 1,000 meters tall appeared.

Its entire body was covered by long white fur, and two black holes were visible on its face. These were the eyes of the snow monster, and it was staring at the two of them with hatred, preparing to take revenge for the pain it had suffered from the burns earlier.

“I… F*ck,” Feng Wuji cursed under his breath.

The enhancement from the ice crystal-like hair was so good that they were almost cheating. It actually had a similar effect as the mutant creatures.

In terms of strength, they had directly increased to the point where they could use the power of nature. The snow monsters and the blue-haired foreigners were even stronger than the mutant creatures.

Because the mutant creatures had only been born for a short period of time, there had never been an existence beyond the level of warriors.

“This is troublesome. It’s been so long, but Chen Yiming is still nowhere to be seen.” Seeing this, Elder Huang’s expression froze. From the terrifying aura emitted by the new snow monster, it was difficult for the two of them to withstand it.

Once the two martial masters died on the battlefield and Chen Yiming couldn’t return in time, the north would be instantly destroyed by the ice storm caused by the snow beast.

“Roar!”

The newly fused snow beast did not care what the two of them thought. It let out a loud roar. At the same time, a huge ice ball condensed in front of the sharp teeth in its large mouth.

In the next moment, the ice ball seemed to have been spat out and spun towards Feng Wuji and Elder Huang. The power of nature around it turned into ice cones that shot at them.

The terrifying cold air caused the surrounding environment to freeze further, and it was about to turn into a frozen world.

Facing such a terrifying attack, Feng Wuji and Elder Huang had nowhere to dodge. They could only fight it head-on and were forced to counterattack with the power of purification and the transparent flames.

This way, they fell right into the snow beast’s trap.

…

In the East Sea, the waves rose and fell continuously, spreading the power of the sea to the land.

Chen Yiming, who was rushing towards the Daxia Kingdom, was suddenly stopped by a one-eyed bird. The spiritual fluctuations it emitted were the same as the huge eye.

“Are you that huge eye from Mount Everest?”

Chen Yiming used his experience communicating with the female spirit to express what he wanted to say.

The one-eyed bird folded its wings and landed on the surface of the sea. “The strongest human, I’m sure you saw the tentacle in the trench. It’s a weapon of war from the black tide. Escape into space immediately.”

“Oh, did you deliberately trigger that tentacle?”

Chen Yiming glanced in the direction of the oceanic trench from the corner of his eye and smiled faintly.

At this moment, how could he not be sure that it was secretly forcing the humans to hold back the shadow mouth on the moon?

In fact, if the humans immediately launched a semi-finished spaceship, the huge eye could use a similar method to target the oceanic trench to trigger the shadow mouth in advance.

This way, there was almost no chance that the human spaceship and Chen Yiming would be able to escape from the blockade. In turn, this would help the huge eye to escape from the blockade.

The one-eyed bird emitted spiritual fluctuations. “The strongest human, the black tide’s invasion of this world is inevitable.

It’s not just you humans. Our world is the same. We all need to escape from the blockade before the black tide truly descends. Otherwise, we will only die.”

Chen Yiming wasn’t in a hurry at all. He even smiled playfully. “Die? Then how did you survive the black tide that invaded your world?”

The one-eyed bird’s pupils constricted. “I’ve already told you the situation. As for you not listening and choosing to give up the only way for humans to survive, that’s your business.”

After this spiritual fluctuation appeared, the one-eyed bird flapped its wings and flew away. A distorted vortex appeared around its body, and its figure was about to disappear into thin air.

“Although it’s not the main body, I can still shorten the accumulation phase by a few days.”

Chen Yiming’s gaze never left the one-eyed bird as he maintained the smile on his face. In his eyes, the other party was just Skill Points that he could use to upgrade his talents.

Seeing this, the one-eyed bird paused for some reason. In the next moment, a sword streaked across the sky. It was formed by the spiritual figure. Chen Yiming had secretly communicated with the spiritual figure when it appeared.

Immediately after, under the one-eyed bird’s incredulous gaze, the sword stabbed into the distorted vortex and slashed it into nothingness along with the one-eyed bird.

“It’s alright. It should only be a part of its consciousness, but the quality is pretty good.”

The talent panel appeared. Chen Yiming was satisfied with the result that the accumulation phase was reduced by a week.

He did not know if the huge eye’s main body could see the scene before it died. If it could, its expression at that time would be very interesting.

The spiritual figure, which had clearly undergone an extreme transformation and unleashed a powerful attack in exchange for sacrificing its body, was thought to have died, but it had revived.

This would definitely be news to the huge eye.

“There will be an even bigger surprise in the future,” Chen Yiming thought to himself as he looked at the spot where the one-eyed bird had been killed.

With that, he rushed back to the Daxia Kingdom without looking back.

…

On the battlefield around the Ice City, just as Feng Wuji and Elder Huang were about to collapse, a sword flashed across the sky, and the frozen world created by the snow beast immediately collapsed.

“This is?”

The two of them had just noticed the sword flash when a sword arrived in front of the snow beast.

From the reaction of the two black pupils of the snow beast, it was obvious that it was frightened. Even its movements froze for a moment.

However, the truth was that no matter how the snow beast reacted, the outcome would be the same.

Feng Wuji and Elder Huang witnessed with their own eyes how the snow beast that had forced them into a corner was cut into pieces by a sword. Its body shattered like it was a piece of ice.

During this process, the snow beast did not have any ability to resist at all.

“Don’t panic. I’ve already made arrangements.”

Before Feng Wuji and Elder Huang could react, a figure followed closely behind the sword and landed on the battlefield. It was Chen Yiming.

Even though the northern land seemed to be in danger of being frozen, with the spiritual figure to take care of things, the snow monsters wouldn’t be able to do much, unless the existence behind the ice crystal-like hair appeared.

Of course, this was because the huge eye had miscalculated. It did not expect the spiritual figure to be able to revive.

The snow monsters might not be able to freeze the entire north, but they could still deal the north a painful blow.

If everything went according to the plan, it could use the black tide’s war weapons to intimidate Chen Yiming and the snow monsters to intimidate the Daxia Kingdom. In the end, it would be able to force the humans to escape into space.

Unfortunately, these plans were all destroyed since the spiritual figure had revived.

“A legendary sword technique!”

After a long time, Elder Huang let out a long sigh.

After killing the snow monsters, the sword disappeared in a flash and started to chase after and kill the remaining snow monsters and blue-haired people.

Chen Yiming’s appearance confirmed all of this.

Only he could destroy such a terrifying army of snow monsters with just a wave of his hand.

Feng Wuji, on the other hand, felt extremely tired. He had used up a lot of energy.

This was because when he was fighting the snow monsters alongside Elder Huang, when the snow monsters fused to gain the absolute upper hand, he was already prepared to fight to the death.

This feeling of ups and downs was something that even a martial master would be exhausted by. Elder Huang had experienced this before, so he was much calmer than Feng Wuji.

Time quickly passed by.

The snow gradually stopped falling, and the entire northern battlefield gradually fell silent.

“How are the 10 transport planes from the European Union?” Elder Huang, who had a close relationship with the capital, asked Chen Yiming.

“They were probably just shocked. All the transport planes flew over the lightning domain and safely flew out after losing their signal,” Chen Yiming said casually.

The people and supplies from the European Union were lucky. If they had crossed the trench by ship, they would definitely have died. Although the sky was within the range of the barrier, they were not affected by the terrifying lightning storm.

Furthermore, the tentacle that extended from the trench was not under the control of the huge eye. Otherwise, not to mention 10 transport planes, even a million of them would not be enough to deal with the tentacle.

“I see.” Elder Huang nodded and heaved a sigh of relief.

He knew very well that it was very important to have a good start to a cooperation, especially one between two superpowers that involved the entire country’s strength.

After all, there would be a lot of manpower and resources involved as things progressed. If things did not go well right from the start, there might start to be countless objections.

However, just as he heaved a sigh of relief, he heard Chen Yiming say something shocking.

“A weapon from the black tide is hidden in the deepest oceanic trench on the blue planet?” Elder Huang almost fainted when he heard this.

“That’s right. I don’t know how it was triggered by that huge eye from Mount Everest, but a tentacle that was 100 kilometers long extended out of the trench,” Chen Yiming continued.

“A hundred kilometers?” Elder Huang clutched his chest, his face turning pale.

Although he had not seen it with his own eyes, it was definitely not an existence that humans could stop. For some reason, he had the intention to give the spaceship a shot even if it was only half-finished.

Seeing this, Chen Yiming sucked in a breach and swallowed his words about

the shadow mouth on the moon being the blockade that the black tide had set up around the blue planet, as well as the trap that the huge eye had set up for humans to hold back the shadow mouth.

If he told Elder Huang all this, he would probably faint on the spot.

Therefore, the humans’ space plan was very risky. They were still being watched by various existences in secret. No matter how one looked at it, the probability of successfully passing through the moon’s blockade and escaping into space was very low.

…

The snow monster incident had ended, and the transport planes from the European Union had successfully arrived in the Daxia Kingdom.

In the blink of an eye, a day had passed. The people and supplies had settled down. The first batch of people were brought to the second industrial base in East Lake City.

The mastermind behind the snow monster incident was the huge eye. When Elder Huang heard about it from Chen Yiming and the news spread back to the military committee of the Daxia Kingdom, it caused a commotion.

As for the arrangements for the experts, they would undoubtedly choose East Lake City. At the very least, they would be able to relax under Chen Yiming’s watch.

At the entrance of the special dormitory for the European Union’s experts,

Professor Nelson was holding a newspaper. The date was a few days earlier.

There were a few pictures on the front page. One was of 10 extraordinary cannons firing, and the other was of mutant creatures at the border being flattened.

There was a description at the side. “The new generation of extraordinary cannons in the Daxia Kingdom have officially been put into use. 10 cannons were fired at the same time, destroying the army of mutant creatures coming from the southwest border…”

“Teacher, are you reading the report on the extraordinary cannons?”

Behind him, a young man walked out of a dormitory and asked.

The young man had two thick black circles under his eyes and looked extremely tired, as if he had not rested well for a long time.

There were many reasons for this. There was the fact that he had encountered a life-and-death situation during his flight to the Daxia Kingdom and could not calm down. There was also the instinctive discomfort of his body when he first arrived in a foreign country, and the fact that he was shocked by the concept of extraordinary weapons reported in the newspaper.

The source of the reforged extraordinary weapons was the fragments of the extraordinary weapons that Chen Yiming had destroyed. This was something that didn’t exist in the European Union. It was like a material from the legends.

Using modern science to explain it, this was the result of technology from outer space. It contained a secret that was much more advanced than human technology.

“The high level of martial arts cultivation might be the essence of the principles underlying it, and the development of technology to the extent of crossing the galaxy is probably involved as well.”

Professor Nelson put down the newspaper in his hand. Coupled with his experience in martial arts and scientific research, he had an idea.

“Teacher, are you saying that martial arts cultivation and technological development will eventually culminate in the same path?” the young man asked in shock.

“That’s right. The cannons and the spaceship that are being built are actually borrowing fragments of the extraordinary weapons, and those fragments involve some ‘mysterious symbols,’” Professor Nelson explained.

Different mysterious symbols could be connected to the corresponding power of nature, although Professor Nelson could only guess at it from the scattered information.

However, this did not stop him from comparing the mysterious symbols to a theorem and the power of nature to a scene visible to the naked eye in a living environment. For example, rain, thunder, wind, and so on.

Coupled with the public information about the black tide, which was that it came from outer space and could move freely through the galaxies, it was certain that the stars like the sun could not stop the black tide.

Finally, when combined with the development of martial arts cultivation and technology, only by coming into contact with the core principles would one not be afraid of the terrifying high temperature on the sun, the terrifying pressure, and so on, becoming like the black tide that swept through space.

The young man sobered up and asked excitedly, “Teacher, then can’t we just study the fragments of the extraordinary weapons and crack the code of the black tide civilization?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had made a stupid mistake.

For example, if he gave a mathematics textbook to a primitive man, the primitive man would definitely not be able to understand it no matter how he studied it. This was because the basic knowledge he had accumulated was far from the threshold to learn mathematics.

It was the same for the young man. The mysterious symbols were only a concept, but he was already trying to study the fragments of supernatural weapons with the mysterious symbols.

The difference was even greater than the amount of knowledge a primitive person lacked to study mathematics.

Professor Nelson sighed and said, “It’s difficult! Difficult! Difficult! There are too few people who are really qualified to study the fragments of the extraordinary weapons.”

This was easy to guess. In reality, there were only two humans on the blue planet who were qualified to do so.

One was Chen Yiming, who had no interest in research, and the other was Wu Susu, who had a talent for spiritual power that far exceeded one’s imagination.

However, Wu Susu did not recognize her own potential and talent. She was still researching the application of the miracle blood at the provincial biological research institute.

The young man felt a sense of helplessness from his teacher’s words.

This was the greatest regret for a person who truly loved scientific research.

The fragment of the extraordinary weapon was like the scene of tall mountains in front of the fog on the path of human technology. There were two very clear choices to open up the way to that scene.

One of the choices was to accumulate experience over a long period of time. Coupled with the stable development of the environment, and the strength of the group, they could slowly overcome it.

This was similar to the development of humans from ancient times to modern times. Some examples such as electricity, oil, gunpowder, and so on were born, causing the technology to advance.

Of course, in terms of time, it would take much longer to develop to a higher level.

The other option was for a terrifying genius to be born among humans. He would have the martial arts cultivation to reach the threshold of research and would be able to clear the path to the next level by himself.

The remaining people would be doing the expansion work on this path and gradually converting the results into various tools for application.
