Wuqi's return signifies the beginning of a momentous event.
[It led you back to the human race, and then, with utmost speed, found the remnants of the Wu tribe in several lower realms. With the strength of nearly thirty thorns, it captured these remnants and sent them out one by one through the spatial passage, bringing them into the human race.]
If it weren't for the limitation of the spatial channel's size, it could truly grab those lower-level planets or continents and migrate them within that realm.
[Furthermore, the remnants of the human race it brought back were not the same group that participated in the Grand Tournament of All Races.]
The former refers to the surviving lower realms from the Wu tribe's "preservation plan." Their entrances and exits are hidden extremely deep. Although these survivors are weak, they still possess the complete heritage of the Wu tribe, preserving the essence of their civilization.
These individuals will be key to the resurgence of the Wu tribe, much like students who have completed nine years of compulsory education, know most Chinese characters, and understand most concepts, making it easier for them to enter various subjects and rapidly develop their talents.
[Those participating in the Grand Competition of Ten Thousand Races are merely domesticated servants, devoid of spirit, left only with numbness and obedience. Simply correcting their flawed thinking would take a tremendous amount of time, let alone restoring their tribal spirit.]
The latter group was not abandoned by Wuqi, but reclaiming the domesticated Wuqi tribes would not be of much use to the development of the tribe at present, so Wuqi postponed its handling of the matter.
Moreover, those servants of the Wu tribe are located among several supreme races, too scattered. It cannot bring back even a few at a time before the True King discovers and stops it.
[Year 4357.]
[Wuqi has returned and delivered a resounding slap to the face of the supreme race.]
The retribution did not strike like a thunderbolt; the supreme race remained on the sidelines.
They all knew Wuqi's power when he was first crowned king—nine times that of others of the same level—making it impossible for him to break out of the Fifth Realm.
Now that Wuqi has returned, it means he either had a fortuitous encounter that allowed his Sacred Body to evolve, or he broke through to the fifth realm and was kicked out of the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races.
The latter possibility is probably zero, but if it's the former... how much did Wuqi grow during that fortuitous encounter, and how many times stronger did he become?
Even though it is still no match for the Supreme Race's king, how long can it withstand a group attack?
During the period when it held out, how much destruction could it have caused by intruding into the High Territory?
There's a saying: "Those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who have something to lose."
[Also known as the principle of yielding to those who are happy.]
[The supreme race is powerful and influential; why would they fight to the death with Wuqi, especially since Wuqi is now isolated, only caring for a small group of Wu tribe members and humans who are not of the same race? How could those meager ties possibly make Wuqi willingly fight to the death with those true kings?]
[They're definitely fighting and running away at the same time, doing everything they can to cause damage!]
Therefore, the supreme race was actually thinking about allowing the Wu tribe to develop.
[Initially, they maintained a peaceful coexistence with the Wuqi, but after a thousand or two years, that small group of Wuqi expanded and grew stronger, giving the Wuqi hope for their tribal revival and creating a weakness.]
[Then send out more than ten true kings to surround and beat it, while simultaneously launching an attack on the powerful Wu tribe.]
To protect the newly emerging Wu tribe, Wuqi had no choice but to remain in place and withstand the attack, unlike now, when he could simply leave in the face of siege—sacrificing the lives of a small group of Wu tribe members for the lives of hundreds of billions of supreme beings was worthwhile!
[The Supreme Race's thinking is correct. Faced with an attack, the Wuqi will indeed choose to charge into their stronghold and wreak havoc, rather than stubbornly defending the humans and the small number of Wuqi.]
[It becomes closer to humans and willing to help them because of your skill points, but that doesn't mean it's willing to die protecting them. The humans here and the human ancestors who helped it are not from the same lineage, just from the same race.]
Rather than protecting them to their deaths, it's better to take more of the supreme race with us to be buried alongside the humans and the ancient Wu tribe.
[Thus, due to the confluence of various factors, the Bitter River Region not only did not undergo any major changes, but instead fell into an eerie calm.]
[In 4360, you advanced to the third realm, "Celestial Talisman Master".]
[Now, without destroying your own life, you are approaching Wuqi's current strength, reaching level 30.]
[Regardless of the immense pressure the human race in the Bitter River Region faces both internally and externally, you seem quite relaxed.]
[In the second realm, rune masters learn a wide variety of runes, but in the third realm, they must choose a major category of runes to specialize in.]
Runes are divided into three main categories: "Self Runes," "Elemental Runes," and "Yin-Yang Runes."
[The Self Runes focus on strengthening oneself, such as the "Golden Body Rune," "Great Strength Rune," and "Swiftness Rune."]
Elemental runes are a rune system built upon the foundations of earth, fire, water, and wind. However, they encompass more than just these four attributes; there are also derived runes such as lightning runes and wood runes.
The Yin-Yang runes are like programming; there are only two types of runes, "Yang" and "Yin," but just like binary code with "0" and "1," they can be combined freely to produce different effects.
[Mastering just one of the three types of runes is enough to advance to the fourth realm—the Heavenly Rune Master.]
"But of course, we want all the excellent cheaters!"
In 4362, a true king intervened remotely, clashing with Wuqi in a single blow, tearing open the triple heavenly belt, and unleashing a torrent of thunder down from the sea of lightning.
Plasma fell, forming a vast expanse of thunderous marshland.
After this attack, the true king realized Wuqi's strength. Fifty Thorns wasn't particularly powerful, but killing it would take a considerable amount of time, enough for Wuqi to breach his defenses.
[In 4365, although it was decided to let Wuqi develop its weaknesses, the supreme race still lost face, and from time to time, other races' second and third realm warriors invaded the human race.]
[Wuqi can't possibly intervene in everything; sending some minor troops to annoy it is good enough.]
[In 4371, you sensed something was wrong despite your exceptionally high level of comprehension.]
"This rune system... seems to have a flaw?"
[You have reached the peak of the Celestial Talisman Master realm and are about to break through to the fourth realm with the "Three Perfections" form, but at the moment of breakthrough, you feel an incompleteness: "One is missing."]
Of course, compared to other talisman masters who only focus on one major area of expertise, you are already quite accomplished, but your superior intelligence will never make a mistake.
A month later, you confirmed it: the inheritance of the Bitter River Domain was incomplete.
Alternatively, the rune system may not be a complete system, and its creators may not have incorporated it into the fifth realm of content.
"Then I'll have to be the one to complete this road!"
In 4373, you ushered in a great revolution in the world of runes.
You have added a "spirit-type rune" to an already complex rune system.
The broad category of "spiritual" can be further subdivided into branches such as the emotional, illusory, and spiritual categories.
