Chapter 434: Chapter 434: Seizing Fate, Lin Ping’an’s Maneuvers, Gathering Clouds, Mainline Human Race Strife

Although the guess wasn’t completely accurate, the overall direction had no major issues.

The key to entry and exit is indeed related to the cultivation technique.

In the center of a certain encampment beyond the light film.

A group of strong individuals gathered to discuss.

"That Yuwen Yang checked, and there’s no problem!"

"The cultivation technique seems to have some sort of limitation; it must be purchased within that Celestial Dao Network to cultivate!"

"Hmm! Purchasing requires merit, and merit must be exchanged with exotic beast corpses! Since that’s the case, we can do this, this... like this..."

"Good idea! I agree!"

"We must find a way to get those cultivation techniques in hand!"

"These youngsters can’t crack it, but for us, it might be a different story!" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"And the ownership of that Celestial Dao Network, we have to seize it too."

"..."

Meanwhile, in a room not far away, Yuwen Yang was recuperating, and in the hidden depths of his consciousness space, a pitch-black Demon Seed was intermittently glowing.

At the same time.

In different areas of other light films, similar scenes were happening in various sects and noble family factions.

At the same moment, in the Great Xia Human Realm, inside a certain villa.

Lin Ping’an, who was tirelessly cultivating, slightly opened his eyes, a slight smile on his lips, softly murmuring.

"The stage is set, and the actors are about to be in place. Next, let me see how the performance unfolds!"

Evidently, those dozen or so people who fled were all controlled by Demon Seeds he created using the Dao Heart Demon Planting Technique.

It’s not an exaggeration to call them alternate avatars.

Since deciding to give Great Xia new trials, it’s natural not only to control the situation on Great Xia’s side but also to adjust the progress on the other side.

Of course, regardless of how developments unfold, when things don’t align with his intentions, Lin Ping’an will naturally intervene.

On the other side, those groups of different exotic beast tribes are equally bewildered.

The squad they dispatched still hasn’t provided any feedback, not a shred of useful intelligence has been obtained.

That chance of transcendence cannot be missed.

Afterward, more teams were sent over.

Among these tribes, the Beast God is like an ancestor; the descendants below cannot make decisions.

Even knowing there’s unknown danger inside, they have no choice but to brace themselves and set out.

To the light film, everyone is welcome; it doesn’t matter how many exotic beasts want to enter.

But to leave, you’d have to be able to kill Lin Ping’an.

Otherwise, don’t even think about it.

In his view, these creatures are nothing but props for the stage performance, mere expendable cannon fodder, not worth mourning over.

Moreover, within the high ranks of those dozen or so tribes whose Beast Gods have fallen, chaos ensues.

Their pillars of support and forebears suddenly vanished.

Anyone in their position would be panicked.

They are the foundation of top-tier tribes’ existence; once news leaks, other tribes will inevitably probe, trying to bite off a chunk of the fat.

The environment within the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races or say the Mountain and Sea Realm is just like this, the weak are prey to the strong, survival is for the fittest.

Without backing, without sufficiently powerful tribal strength, they become prey for others.

Especially the Dragon Race, with the current Dragon God along with a significant portion of their tribes’ strong individuals going missing, they’re more panicked than anyone.

After all, for other tribes, it’s only the Beast Gods that have disappeared, and they traveled secretly, so it can be somewhat concealed.

But for them, the Dragon God with high banners and a mighty army went to the area where the current light film is located.

Practically every tribe is aware of this, making it impossible to cover the news.

Only due to most of the Dragon Race’s territory being in the sea, were they on land, significant problems would have already arisen.

Nonetheless, even so, probing from different tribes has started to emerge gradually.

Subsidiary tribes that had long been subjugated have also begun to have ulterior motives.

Within the various Dragon Palaces in the seas, every Dragon Race member frowned, looking grimmer than the next.

In the ancestral grounds, within the sacrificial forbidden zone.

Seventeenth Prince Ao Shan looked at the cracks on the densely packed Life and Death Tokens, feeling utterly downcast.

From the Dragon God to the top sixteen Princes, plus 80% of the strong individuals, all had fallen.

With this mess, no one could possibly turn things around.

Though he once dreamed of becoming the Dragon God, he never wanted it to happen this way.

This is nearly destructive for the Dragons!

Currently, assuming power is death, not assuming power is also death, staying is a slow death, and running means being hunted.

After all, aside from everything else, just based on his identity, he would definitely be a primary target of the hunt.

After thinking long and hard, Ao Shan had a sudden inspiration.

Then, he hurriedly left, preparing to seize a ray of hope.

...

As time passed day by day, the atmosphere of readiness for battle in Great Xia grew increasingly intense.

Within the light film, batches of martial artists formed teams to sweep and hunt exotic beasts.

During this time, the exploration teams sent by the various exotic beast tribes were practically seen as gift packages by those Great Xia hunting squads.

The kind they would never miss when encountered.

Under Lin Ping’an’s control, the exotic beasts have received no feedback whatsoever, and can only continue deploying more and more.

Exploration squads of the Mainline Human Race also began to infiltrate.

With Great Xia expanding its territorial control, the Celestial Dao Network seemed to also be expanding its connectivity range.

These Mainline Human Race individuals, as long as they reached the Guardian City near the penultimate line of defense, could connect to the Celestial Dao Network using their consciousness.

Regarding this, the Celestial Dao Network seemed unafraid of incoming connections, making no distinction between Mainline Human Race or Great Xia Human Race. As long as they belong to the Human Race and have no exotic beast bloodline, they can connect.

Because of this, the Mainline Human Race’s understanding of Great Xia’s intelligence surged rapidly over time.

Upon learning that Great Xia indeed possessed billions of Sixth Grade Peak Martial Artists, the strong individuals of the Mainline Human Race were utterly stunned.

They thus realized the terrifying war potential brought by Great Xia’s system.

However, differences in class meant that even understanding this wouldn’t bring about change.

Damaging the power and interests of sect families to benefit a bunch of lowly peasants, allowing these stepping stones to stand on equal footing with them, was simply unthinkable.

Ants should eternally exist as ants, don’t think about transforming into a dragon and rising to the heavens.

However, under pressure, or perhaps due to the subtle invasion of ideas.

The Mainline Human Race’s sect family powers began to loosen their strategies towards commoners.

The control over cultivation techniques also started to relax slightly.

After all, battles still require a massive amount of cannon fodder.

Within the Mainline Human Race’s internal territory, actions to smear the Great Xia Human Race have also gradually started.

For the sake of their own class interests, they wouldn’t sacrifice themselves to become stepping stones for those lowly ants.

In the eyes of these sect family members, just a few battles, with many ants dying, would prevent any reconciliation with Great Xia in the future. Forming a deep-blooded hatred would make even the idea of resolving it a luxury.

This is an open scheme.
