Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 570 - 11 Eve
Huangtian had long speculated about who had caused the appearance of the second "sun."
It was not until he saw Wang Sheng that he could be certain.
The second "sun" was indeed related to the teacher.
However, it was still necessary to ask, as speculation was always just that.
"Teacher, did you create the second ’sun’ that has persisted for nearly a year?"
"The second sun?" Wang Sheng was baffled, as he had communicated with the Planet Will for a while after his return and had not checked the external situations much.
So, he truly did not know what this so-called second "sun" was.
"Teacher, it’s like this, a year ago, a sun red as Qi-Blood appeared in the sky above the world. This sun wasn’t very large, and its light was not so intense, but it existed for a year, exerting a suppressing force on cultivators; it was obviously very abnormal..."
Huangtian had not expected Wang Sheng to be unaware of this matter, so he explained the situation in detail. fгeewebnovёl.com
As he did, Wang Sheng’s expression grew increasingly strange.
Before Huangtian could finish, he was stopped with a wave of a hand, "No need to continue, it indeed relates to me, but I didn’t expect it to cause such trouble..."
The so-called second sun was something he recognized instantly, wasn’t it just the Qi Blood Furnace during an upgrade of certain Physique Origins?
He had noticed it at the time. The Qi Blood Furnace materialized and became enormous.
But because he was fully focused on breaking through, he did not realize it had enlarged to such an extent.
It had nearly affected the entire planet.
Upon hearing Wang Sheng’s admission, Huangtian’s astonishment burst forth completely.
Although he had speculated earlier, obtaining a confirmed answer felt different.
"What an immense power!"
He had no doubts that if the "sun" created by the teacher were to fall, it could instantly destroy several neighboring states.
Such power was cataclysmic!
This time, the whole world had directly felt the terror of the Eighth Realm, against which no one below the Eighth Realm could contend.
Thinking about it made his heart suddenly sink.
After pondering for a moment, he asked with a furrowed brow and somewhat awkwardly, "Teacher, besides confirming the truth here, I have a request I hope you will grant!"
"A request? It’s about the war against the world invasion, right?" Huangtian’s intention was easily perceived by Wang Sheng.
On the eve of a world invasion, there really wasn’t much else to discuss.
"Yes, teacher, it’s because of the World Invasion War. Many powerful beings in the Fourth Realm feel a premonition that the enemy’s invasion will likely happen within the next year or two. We in Datong have already prepared, the most important of which is our defense plan, for which we hope to have your support with the Jade Talismans." Huangtian spoke respectfully and with great eagerness.
"Defense plan?" Wang Sheng was curious, "What exactly does this plan entail?"
"The defense plan is to have all the powerful individuals in the Fourth or potentially Fifth Realm spread out, leading groups to hold positions, trying to survive as many as possible if invaded."
In saying this, Huangtian could hardly disguise his bitterness.
This plan wasn’t good; it was born of necessity.
Wang Sheng discerned the deeper meaning: "Are you planning to abandon some of the people?"
"Sort of…" Huangtian’s face grew even more bitter, "But essentially, everyone might be a part of those who are abandoned, without distinctions made between high and low status."
"Teacher, the more we recognize the gap in strength, the more we feel hopeless. This is already a way to preserve more lives under your protection!"
Huangtian knew that without Wang Sheng leading, whatever they did would be futile.
"Scattering them doesn’t make it easier for them to die faster?" The great discrepancy in strength between the two worlds meant that if they couldn’t concentrate their forces, it would be harder to resist and they would easily be defeated one by one.
"Teacher, the Savior Sect is hidden too deeply. We know that there are those from the Fourth Realm who have joined the Savior Sect, yet we can’t find them. They bear no marks of the sect, only ideological changes, ready to turn at the crucial moment. If gathered together... the damage might be even greater."
Huangtian stated another harsh reality.
It had to be said that the Martial Arts True Monarch’s schemes had taken effect, planting many time-bombs within Datong.
If they turn in the middle of the World Invasion War and Wang Sheng cannot intervene, those gathered could well be annihilated.
If they disperse, at most, they would lose the lives in one region.
"Another inevitable choice?"
Huangtian’s two considerations served essentially the same purpose.
To distribute the risk.
To shift the risks of annihilation and traitors.
In the end, the result would be the same—if Wang Sheng could not stop all the enemies,
some regions were destined to be sacrificed.
Thinking of this, Wang Sheng sighed, "Tell me, what help do you want?"
"Teacher, I wish to request your Jade Talismans. Entrusted to absolutely trustworthy individuals, they can be pivotal at critical moments."
The unification war in Datong was ended quickest because of Wang Sheng’s Jade Talismans, even without casualties.
Of course, this did not mean the Jade Talismans were weak. In fact, an annihilative war with almost no casualties happened because the Jade Talismans were too powerful, too mighty for anyone to resist.
Huangtian knew that with enough Jade Talismans, a different turn might be possible.
Wang Sheng did not respond immediately but pondered for a while.
