Facing the Apocalypse with My Other Selves
Chapter 681 - 377: Attack on the Resource World!
Once all preparations were completed, the Association made no delay.
A powerful army had already rapidly gathered.
The vanguard of the entire army is composed of three levels: Saint Realm, Daluo Golden Immortal Realm, and Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm from various Association worlds.
This vanguard is the first tier of members in this war.
Then came the larger number of other level powerhouses.
Plus, many Twelfth Realm Shen Yu personally took action. Just from the surface perspective, the combat capacity of the entire army at the Extraordinary level is approximately ten times that of the enemy.
After all, their goal is to seize the entire Resource World.
In such a world where fighting occurs, it’s impossible to fall into a prolonged tug-of-war, as that would bring enormous losses to the entire Resource World.
It must be a swift victory!
"Tathagata, Immortal Zhenyuanzi, have both of you also come to participate?" Shen Yu was still within the army when he saw two familiar faces.
These two have now reached the Saint Level.
However, their personal power development still cannot match the speed of the Association’s development.
Originally, when they broke through to the Saint Level, the Saint Realm was the strongest within the Association, with a total of no more than thirty people.
But in such a short period, the number of Saints has multiplied tenfold, nearly reaching five hundred.
So much so that these two, who were quite esteemed in mythical stories, even among the Great Powers under Saints, now seem relatively inconspicuous within this coalition army assembled by the Association.
"Advisor Shen," Tathagata clasped his hands together and smiled, "The All Heavens are vast, broad, and deep, endless and infinite. Since we have this opportunity, the two of us wish to experience it."
It’s undeniable; apart from the enhancement in power, these two have also changed their aura significantly.
Compared to before, they have become more approachable.
Shen Yu smiled and nodded slightly.
Of course, he was happy to see these individuals actively participating in the Association’s war. Though as the Celestial Emperor of the Primordial World, and especially as the support for these powerhouses exploring the All Heavens, Shen Yu actually has the authority to command these Primordial World powerhouses to participate in the Association’s arranged war. However, forcibly commanding and voluntarily participating are ultimately different.
After some simple pleasantries, Shen Yu then looked at the other forces within the entire army.
Whether they’re powerhouses or others below that level, Shen Yu was relatively unfamiliar with most of them.
After all, a considerable portion of them actually comes from other worlds.
During the over two thousand years of confrontation with the Great Wind Empire, the third All Heavens Force, the Association had never stopped its own development.
Even worlds that seem to have reached their own limits were also improving their world’s limits through various means.
For instance, the High Martial World.
The initial High Martial World could accommodate at most three Saint Level powerhouses, but now this number has multiplied by twenty times.
Under normal circumstances, even with the support of high Divine Format and high-level Law power, development wouldn’t be so rapid.
But the Association ultimately has the foundation and means.
With the aid of resources and support from the Celestial Dao Tree on the Law level, any world’s world level can elevate rapidly.
And the High Martial World’s advantages in resources are ranked among the top within the entire Association.
Especially after it spent a significant price to create a Parallel Universe for its world.
Besides, another world with massive changes is the world where Elemental Shen Yu resides.
This world originally had a huge scale, even capable of presenting more Extraordinary armies than all the other Association worlds combined during the Primordial World’s resolution of the Doomsday battle.
However, there was some difference in world levels.
But with the Association’s development of the Elemental World, various Elemental Laws can basically connect seamlessly.
Plus, all the collected elemental resources have been bought entirely by Elemental Shen Yu.
Thus, although Elemental Shen Yu has become the Association member with the most debt, this has accelerated the progress of the entire Elemental World.
Currently, the highest level of the Elemental World has barely reached the Twelfth Stage.
The reason for saying barely is that, throughout the civilization, only Elemental Shen Yu has reached this level.
While the world’s level still lacks somewhat.
Yet, even so, the Elemental World’s Saint Level has astonishingly reached over a hundred!
In this world, even when a powerhouse falls, they can leave behind their Divine Format, and with a bit of time and resources, a powerhouse of such Realm can be "cultivated" again.
In other words, a powerhouse’s Realm is not lost with their fall.
The number of powerhouses in the world will only increase as long as the Divine Format isn’t lost, not decrease.
Hence, the lineup presented now, even being ten times as many as the enemy, still doesn’t remotely count as an all-out deployment for the Association.
As long as the Association desires, it can deploy more combat capacity to the battlefield at any time.
"Is everything ready?" Shen Yu reviewed the army and then checked the battlefield’s commanding center.
"Everything is already prepared. We’ve conducted tens of thousands of simulations and maintained real-time monitoring of defensive forces in various locations," said the person responsible in the command center, a Grand Wizard from the Wizard World.
