Chapter 991: Chapter 530: Situation, World Secret Realm (4K) _2
True Body!
Fallen God’s Servant!
This is a terrifying enemy of the same rank as Grand Duke of the Hunt, Shadow Duke, and Swarm Queen. Orochi even embodies the will of the legendary ‘Snake God’.
Let’s not even mention the Snake God, for it is an existence beyond their comprehension; but even just facing Orochi himself… there was not a single duke present who had the confidence to confront him.
To be more precise, even if they had rallied the forces of their entire territories, they likely wouldn’t have lasted long in the face of Orochi himself.
“Our Silver Moon City, after decades of fortification, is as secure as a fortress, so we are not afraid of that Orochi Servant, but we certainly can’t keep hiding behind the city walls forever,”
said Duke Silver Moon gravely.
Her statement was merely to prevent seeming too disadvantaged; Silver Moon City did possess many high-order city defense weapons and structures, but if Orochi attacked again and again, they couldn’t hold out each time.
It wouldn’t take two or three attacks before the entire Silver Moon City would collapse; such was the vast disparity in power.
The other dukes were somewhat aware of Silver Moon’s tough stance, but they also knew that it wasn’t just the endeavor of Silver Moon Duke alone.
These duchies might seem distant, but for an existence such as an Orochi Servant, such distances didn’t instill any sense of safety.
It wouldn’t be impossible for Orochi to appear outside Jewel City the next moment.
“What did the lord of Star Luo Holy Palace say?”
Asked a duke.
Another person shook his head, “The Star Luo Holy Palace only agreed to help us intercept enemies in the frontline battle zone and to deploy powerful figures to stand guard at ‘Sky Star City.’ The Holy Palace stated that the situation is tense and they cannot deploy more forces, advising us to figure something out on our own.”
Of course, the more significant reason was…
These duchies are, plainly speaking, merely ‘peripheral members’ and ‘allied forces’ of the Star Luo Holy Palace.
They belong to the Star Luo Holy Palace yet are not part of the direct lineage.
The Holy Palace had already provided them with ample protection, and in principle, they should not be asking for more.
But everyone wants to live, to survive.
“In our region, only Sky Star City, a direct force of the Holy Palace, has sufficient strength. But the lord sitting in Sky Star City stated that no matter how urgent the situation is, they will not leave the city. We cannot ask that lord to take action.”
That lord was a being honoured with the title of ‘Divine Punishment Knight.’
Divine Punishment Knight Xingpu, a prominent figure with credentials to perform on the world stage, also held extraordinary authority within the vast Holy Palace.
In the old era, such a person could even proclaim to rival Gods with a mortal’s body.
“Apart from Lord Starfall, there are other powerful figures stationed in Sky Star City, but without exception, none of them would step out of Sky Star City, no matter how high a price we offered. Those stubborn ascetics!”
“For now, the only course of action remains to seek reinforcements from other places.”
But where could they find reinforcements?
The Sky Rift calamity was a global disaster; if their patron Holy Palace couldn’t spare any personnel, who else could?
Gemstone Grand Duke suddenly spoke up, “What about asking Tianyuan City next door?”
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, “Tianyuan City’s strength is already remarkable and it has been rising rapidly within the Tai Xuan Alliance. Most importantly, Tianyuan City is very close to us, extremely close!”
These six duchies were far from the headquarters of the Holy Palace; what about Tianyuan City? It was just next door.
This made seeking help a feasible option.
Duke Gold also said, “It’s worth a try.”
A duke pondered, “But is the strength of Tianyuan City really enough to handle the Orochi Servant?”
Silver Moon Duke said, “Regardless, we must try!”
They were out of options.
“So our current problem is, how can we persuade the Lord of Tianyuan City to take action?”
Within Jewel City, the grand dukes plunged into another round of intense discussion.
…
“Fire Wing Duke, Dark Teeth failed, not only did he fail to hunt down the Giant Spirit God Lu Liu of Tianyuan City, but he also lost his own life and is now in the process of revival,”
After hearing this, Fire Wing Duke fell into deep thought.
He was both surprised and not very surprised.
He could equip Dark Teeth with Conceptual Level tools; likewise, the generals of Tianyuan City could possess such tools.
He only found it problematic; the entire Tianyuan City, from top to bottom, inside and out, appeared impenetrable like a solid iron barrel.
Was this reasonable?
“However, under normal circumstances there is no chance, but perhaps there soon will be.”
Fire Wing Duke looked into the distance.
Above the vast Red Mist, within this region, there also was a huge crimson tendril that pierced the sky.
Beneath the long tendril, somewhere high above.
The space had torn open yet it hadn’t healed.
Within the rift, gray fog drifted and golden light flickered.
This seemed to be a Secret Realm’s Gate.
A Secret Realm’s Gate that had been forced to appear.
Red Mist surged into it.
…
Tai Xuan Liangyi headquarters.
The divine thought incarnation of the Lord of Luo Fu Mountain concentrated and descended here.
“Tianyuan General Lu Liu has slain the Grand Duke of the Hunt ‘Dark Teeth’ in the region of Pan Shi City? Excellent, excellent, excellent!”
To him, the Grand Duke of the Hunt Dark Teeth was hardly worth mentioning.
His joy was due to the emergence of another young powerhouse in Tai Xuan.
World-class strongman!
In less than two years since stepping into the Eternal World, Tianyuan had already cultivated at least two world-class strongmen. Perhaps in a short while, there would be a third, a fourth, even a fifth.
He could certainly guess that this was thanks to Tianyuan’s uniquely advantageous evolutionary nurturing talents.
But, having just this talent alone was far from enough to cultivate so many unparalleled divine generals.
The Lord of Luo Fu Mountain had seen too many incredible talents.
There are Lords who could continuously level up by killing monsters;
Some Lords could even turn the power of a curse into a positive gain;
Some Lords had eyes that could see through everything, obtaining the most authentic information;
Some Lords…
There are many exaggerated talents, but talent is just a part of a Lord’s ability.
That Tianyuan could repeatedly defeat monster waves and recruit one exceptional general after another in just less than two years was probably due to the unimaginable hardships and efforts that outsiders could barely conceive.
Hardships, efforts, a bit of talent, and indispensable luck—these combined created the current miracle of Tianyuan.
The Lord of Luo Fu Mountain hoped that this miracle would continue to extend at a miraculous pace.
“However, the opportunity to gain that in the Holy Griffon Empire will be coming in the near future, but to obtain enough benefits there, you’d need at least to be in the Law Realm,”
Even being newly entered into the Law Realm was not enough.
For Tianyuan, time was ultimately just not sufficient.
Suddenly, an aide ran over and said:
“Lord, within our nation’s borders we’ve detected several special secret realms that appear to have fluctuations similar to those of the world’s origin. Their scale is very vast, and we are temporarily calling them—World Secret Realms.”
Soon, information about the World Secret Realms converged.
Outside the Taixuan Territory, and even in many areas of the world, the entrances to this one World Secret Realm appeared.
However,
“For now, this Secret Realm can only accommodate those at the Fourth-order Limit to enter, and we have already dispatched an official expedition team for exploration.”
“According to the Secret Realm Exploration Department’s analysis, the capacity limit of this Secret Realm is gradually increasing. Perhaps in a while, even those in the Legendary Realm will be able to step inside.”
“There seem to be many treasures within the Secret Realm, currently hard to obtain; we can only wait for the Legendary Realm to enter to decide. But there’s also bad news, the expedition team has discovered traces of Wisdom Monsters within this World Secret Realm.”
…
In Tianyuan City, Mu Yuan again cast a batch of Evolutionary Glory, then lazily sprawled across the desk.
The documents were processed, he didn’t feel like cultivating for the moment, and this world didn’t have short videos to relieve boredom…
For a moment, did Lord Shepherd actually feel a bit bored?
He surely hadn’t developed a love for work, had he?
“Lord…” Mo Li knocked on the door and entered, “People from the neighboring Shen Luo Domain have arrived, it’s Duke Gold and Silver Moon Duke, and they say they have important matters to discuss.”
