Chapter 164: Surrender or Die
You know, there are about 200 caves here.
Adding the forty-five caves he currently has, there will be nearly three hundred caves in his body.
By then, his normal strength will at least be comparable to that of a Realm Lord at the early peak. If he fights at full strength, even an ordinary Realm Lord in the middle stage may not be his opponent.
And this is not the end yet.
He still has merit points derived from the major forces joining the Yanhuang Alliance that he has not yet harvested.
When he thought of this, Lin Chen felt impatient.
Soon, the leaders of many forces ascended the altar for offering sacrifices to heaven together with Lin Chen.
Blood oath.
Afterwards, everyone looked serious and swore an oath to the sky.
"God bless you, I am Lin Chen from the Lin family."
"The head of the Sun family in Ziyu Continent, Sun Wu."
“.”
"From now on, I voluntarily join the Yanhuang Alliance, help each other, and rely on each other. If you violate this, you will be robbed of your inner demons. I hope the heavens will judge you."
Rumble. As soon as everyone finished talking, a muffled thunder sounded in the void.
Immediately afterwards, the sky and the earth began to change, and streaks of purple light descended from the nine heavens to the sky above the Yanhuang Continent. Then, under the trembling gazes of countless creatures, they merged with the almost 300,000-foot-wide lavender sea of luck above the Yanhuang Alliance.
Thirty thousand feet, forty thousand feet, fifty thousand feet In the blink of an eye, the Yanhuang Alliance's sea of luck expanded to as much as five hundred thousand feet, and there was no sign of stopping its rise.
It kept soaring to the level of nine hundred thousand feet of light purple luck, and then it slowly stopped.
It was at this moment that Lin Chen heard the system's mechanical and cold prompt again.
[Congratulations to the host family for receiving the luck support from the Tianxin Sect of the Yanhuang Alliance and obtaining 6721 merit points. ]
[Congratulations to the host family for receiving the luck support from the Qin family of the Yanhuang Alliance and obtaining 33123 merit points. ]
【.】
Twenty-three system prompts sounded in Lin Chen's ears, causing the balance of merit points on his personal panel to soar from 1,021,231 to 1,352,476 merit points.
It is nearly one-third of the merit points rewarded by the fusion continent.
The most crucial thing is that due to the sudden increase in the fortune of the Yanhuang Alliance, the merit points that the Lin family can generate each year have increased from 80 to 90, greatly improving Lin Chen's efficiency in opening up the cave.
"With so many merit points, if I digest them all, I can at least open up more than 330 caves. Maybe with the merit points accumulated during cultivation, I can open up another 10 to 20 caves. Add the 45 I have now, and that would make 400 caves?"
"I don't know how strong I will be by then."
"Comparable to the middle or late stage of the Realm Master Realm?"
Thinking of this, the smile on Lin Chen's face grew wider.
Nothing special happened next. After the grand banquet, Lin Chen returned to the secret room where he usually practiced seclusion.
Without any delay, he selected a large number of cultivation resources suitable for himself and began to greedily devour and refine them.
For a moment, his aura was increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Forty-five caves, forty-six caves, forty-seven caves Almost every few years, a shadow of a cave would appear behind Lin Chen, then gradually disappear and merge into his body.
In this steadily ascending practice, two thousand years passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period of time, news about the possible comeback of the demons has spread to many forces above the first rank, causing undercurrents in the Zhenwu world to begin to surge, with all major forces trying every possible means to improve their own strength.
To the north of the Sea of Chaos, there is a large continent that is hundreds of times larger than the Central Continent, called the Xuanhuang Continent.
This continent has been controlled by the Xuantian Sect and the Huang Family, two first-class forces for billions of years. Their power is deeply rooted and their foundation is unfathomable.
The Huangtian Holy Dynasty, which once ruled over trillions of miles of territory and caused quite a stir in the entire southeast region, felt that its strength had accumulated to a certain level, so it set its sights on the Xuantian Sect and the Huang family, preparing to conquer them.
As a result, they were wiped out by the two before they even reached the Xuanhuang Continent. Even the ancestor of the Huangtian Holy Dynasty, a super powerful man at the peak of the early stage of the Realm Lord, fell in their hands.
From then on, people knew it.
How profound is the foundation of the top force that has stood in this world for billions of years?
On this day, all the creatures in Xuanhuang Continent were still living their normal lives, some practicing, some having fun, everything was so normal.
It was at this time.
Two consecutive voices like the mighty power of heaven suddenly resounded throughout the Xuanhuang Continent.
"Pass the order and send the supreme elders of my Xuantian Sect to lead the disciples to conquer all the territories within fifty light years north of Xuanhuang Continent and confiscate the resources to prepare for the catastrophe."
"Send the order and dispatch the supreme elders of our Huang family to lead the strong men in the clan to conquer all the territories within fifty light years south of Xuanhuang Continent and confiscate the resources to prepare for the catastrophe."
"We will obey the orders of our ancestors."
"We will obey the orders of our ancestors."
Under the shocked gazes of countless living beings, figures emitting a terrifying aura appeared between heaven and earth, leading teams of people and horses running in opposite directions.
It was not until the figures of these powerful men completely disappeared from everyone's sight that they came to their senses.
"Can't the Xuantian Sect and the Huang Family hold back anymore?"
"Could it be that this disaster is not just the remnants of the demon clan causing trouble?"
"Didn't you find something strange? The remnants of the demon clan frequently cause riots, but no supreme sect or immortal family has stepped in to suppress them."
"Hiss, it's really scary when you think about it~!"
At this point, the expressions of countless creatures across the Xuanhuang Continent suddenly became solemn.
For nearly two thousand years, the remnants of the demon clan have been wreaking havoc everywhere, targeting those talented people with potential. Originally, they thought that this was the same as before, and that the major forces in the Zhenwu World were using the remnants of the demon clan to train the geniuses.
But with the actions of Xuantian Sect and the Huang Family, they realized that things were not that simple.
For a moment, everyone was nervous, but they also started to take action.
There were powerful people who, in order to obtain the elixir in a family's treasure house, targeted and even destroyed the entire family, causing rivers of blood to flow.
Some sects, in order to cultivate truly strong people, cut off the supply of disciples and elders, and purchased cultivation resources suitable for the sect's ancestors at any cost.
There is a family. All kinds of scenes that were previously inconsistent with the rules and incredible are gradually revealed to the world.
Everything they are in is just for survival~!
The Sea of Chaos is more than thirty light years away from the Xuanhuang Continent, and the major forces are not aware of the abnormalities there.
They are still consolidating their own foundation as usual.
After two thousand years of full development, although no super-powerful person at the level of Realm Lord was born, a Saint Emperor-level being was born in the sect alliance.
It became one of the strongest forces after the Yanhuang Alliance.
And this Holy Emperor is none other than the ancestor of Ba Tian Sect, Ba Gui Yi~!
"Emperor Yunze of the Four Dao Alliance has arrived."
"The chief steward of the Central Imperial City's City Lord's Mansion has arrived."
“.”
At this time, the Batian Sect was filled with joy. Many forces in the entire Chaos Sea were invited to come and congratulate. Even the Yanhuang Alliance sent a group of strong men to participate, led by Lin Xiyang, the head of the Lin family.
After years of practice and relying on the Lin family's abundant resources, Lin Xiyang did not suffer any decline in cultivation due to handling family affairs. Instead, his growth rate far exceeded that of many Lin family geniuses. Not only did he break through to the Cave Heaven Realm in one fell swoop, he was not far from the middle stage of the Cave Heaven Realm.
Of course, although the peak of the early stage of the Cave Heaven Realm can be regarded as the top powerhouse in the Sea of Chaos, it is not good enough here.
None of the powerful people who were invited by the Batian Sect to participate in this feast were lower than the Dongtian Realm.
Lin Xiyang's cultivation level can only be considered at the bottom level here.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
However, despite this, none of the many powerful people present dared to underestimate him, and they even greeted Lin Xiyang politely and became familiar with him.
After all, the scene of Lin Chen killing four Holy Emperors in one day is still vivid in everyone’s mind.
The banquet hosted by the Tyrant Sect lasted for seven days and seven nights.
During these seven days, many powerful people can be said to have had a good rest.
However, the threat of the demons always lingered in everyone's mind, so after it was over, many forces gathered in a hall, intending to bid farewell to the strong men of the Tyrant Sect.
The strong men of Ba Tian Sect were aware of this, and after saying a few polite words to retain them, they allowed them to lead their subordinates out of the hall and come to the foot of the mountain where the sect was located.
"See you later."
"See you later."
The strong men from many forces and the strong men from the Tyrant Sect clasped their fists to each other, and then the strong men from various forces turned around, trying to tear apart the void in front of them, return to the bases of their own forces, and continue to practice hard to improve their strength.
However, at this moment.
Rumble. An unrivaled momentum suddenly descended from the sky and crushed everyone.
Plop, plop. In an instant, a series of sounds of people falling to the ground rang out between heaven and earth.
Everyone gritted their teeth, tried their best to resist this momentum, and looked up.
They saw a series of powerful figures, each of whom exuded the aura of at least the late Cave Heaven Realm, coming into their sight.
What shocked the Holy Emperor Guiyi the most was that among these powerful men, there was an old man in linen clothes who was looking at them nonchalantly, and the terrifying aura that descended from the sky and made them feel a little embarrassed was emanating from him.
"A powerful being in the realm of realm master?"
Thinking of this, Emperor Guiyi was shocked. He gritted his teeth, stepped forward and asked respectfully.
"I wonder why you came to my Chaos Sea? Please tell us what you want. As long as we can do it, we will help you even if it means risking our lives."
"Are you the one who is in charge of the Sea of Chaos?"
"very good."
"I am the Grand Elder of Xuantian Sect, Taoist Xuanting. My sect wants to integrate the surrounding forces to prepare for the catastrophe."
"I will give you three hours to notify all the forces of the second rank and above in the Chaos Sea to hand over 80% of their resources and submit to my Xuantian Sect, and you will be spared from disaster."
As he spoke, Taoist Xuanting waved his hand, and suddenly a contract floated in front of everyone's eyes.
It was filled with densely packed clauses, which were nothing more than the rules Xuantian had taught them.
"Hand over 80% of the resources? In the future, the Chaos Sea will hand over 1 billion Originium every 100 years as a reward. The Xuantian Church will select geniuses who meet the requirements and bring them into the church for training. This..."
Everyone present was no weakling, and they knew the contents of the contract at a glance.
For a moment, everyone's face turned pale and they were extremely angry.
This isn't recruiting followers, this is clearly robbery!
It’s not enough to rob them of resources, they also want to rob the geniuses born in the Chaos Sea and dig up the foundations of the major forces! Many powerful people present clenched their fists, roared wildly in their hearts, and were in a very bad mood.
The Xuantian Sect's actions clearly show that they are treating them as leeks, wanting to continuously reap the profits they produce in order to strengthen themselves.
How is this different from being a slave? "Senior, don't you think these terms are a bit too dark?"
"Yes, senior. Eighty percent of the resources, and one billion source stones will be handed over every hundred years. If we hand it over, our power will not only not develop, but it will be very good if it does not decline. Senior, please change the terms of the contract."
“.”
I don't know who said this first, and then the strong men from various forces started to make requests.
Faced with the threat from a powerful Realm Lord, and from the famous Xuantian Sect, they knew in their hearts that they had no choice but to surrender.
But they could never accept such contract terms.
Besides, since the Xuantian Sect is seeking resources, it should be impossible for them to be killed.
Therefore, those who hold on to a glimmer of hope would risk angering Taoist Xuanting by asking this question.
"hehe."
"Since when did a group of ants become worthy of bargaining with me?"
However, in response to everyone's request, Taoist Xuanting sneered, and without any call to action, he burst out with his terrifying aura that was as high as the peak of the early Cave Heaven Realm, and integrated a trace of thunder domain power to crush them.
Puff. In an instant, many Cave Heaven Realm powerhouses present flew backwards, spitting blood, and their breath suddenly became much weaker.
"Senior, senior, please spare my life, senior, I promise, I promise."
Taoist Xuanting unleashed a tremendous force that immediately shattered the hesitation in the hearts of many powerful men, and they all fell to the ground and begged for mercy.
If the disciples in their faction saw that miserable look, it would definitely shatter the powerful image in their minds.
"Very good, in that case, let's sign the contract quickly~!"
Seeing this, Taoist Xuanting acted as if nothing had happened. He smiled and took out contracts from his arms and placed them in front of everyone.
Even Lin Xiyang, who had been silent, had a copy in front of him.
Those strong men whose spirits were crushed and who faced the reality bit their thumbs without any hesitation and pressed their fingerprints on the contract.
