Chapter 278: Chapter 277: A New Atmosphere in Happy Town!

Given how much discussion this situation has aroused, the Ancient City can’t just sit by without making a statement. Very soon, they present evidence in their defense.

“The evidence is irrefutable. Arrest the traitors who have betrayed the human race!”

The Demon Suppression Army, full of bravado, swiftly lay the blame on these attackers of Du Gang, labeling them as traitors.

When the great families saw the evidence, they were dumbfounded.

Apparently, these attackers had been motivated by the Ancient God?

“I can’t believe it, an Ancient God actually appeared again!”

“Yes, it has been countless years since the last time an Ancient God was seen…”

Many were lost in their memories, reminiscing about the days when the Ancient City was the habitat of the Ancient God race.

“Well, that makes sense if it’s due to the Ancient God…”

“The Ancient God is foundational to the lineage of the Ancient City. Those who currently reside in the Ancient City are descendants of the Ancient God and Nuwa…”

“Those who intend to kill their Ancient God deserve to die!”

This time, even the observing families and those at the center of the incident have no choice but to concede.

The Ancient God means a lot to the power structure of Ancient City. It’s their honor, and faith. How could they not retaliate against an assassination attempt?

Moreover, some families, hoping to smooth things over, handed over those who had attacked Du Gang.

But it was futile!

The Demon Suppression Army, owned by the Ancient City, was among the most formidable forces in South Yue province.

Having been deployed, how could they retreat so easily?

Xiang Xinjian was quite the man to exact a tooth for a tooth, literally fighting tooth and nail. Unless he received compensation to his satisfaction, he had no intention of backing down. He even seemed to be considering leading the Demon Suppression Army to seize some family estates.

Confronted with his audacious behavior, the other families felt helpless. They knew they couldn’t fight back.

Although the Demon Suppression Army led by Xiang Xinjian was composed only of God Spirit Level warriors, they represented the entire Ancient City.

Who would dare make a move?

Any action against them could lead to a war that could wipe out an entire clan.

In the end, these families had no choice but to meet Xiang Xinjian’s demands. They not only paid for the expenses of the Demon Suppression Army’s deployment but also offered a sky-high compensation to Du Gang.

This incident sent shockwaves throughout South Yue province.

All powers witnessed the assertiveness and dominance of the Ancient City.

Not only the local powers but also those from other provinces who had gathered here for the Hero’s Conference, could see the prosperity of Ancient City.

…….

“The Ancient City is flaunting its power at such a crucial time, presumably to show the world their strength, right?”

In Happy Town, at the top of the most luxurious tavern, a chubby wealthy man said casually.

Alongside him were other young talents, whose relaxed attitude suggested they were quite close.

“Maybe. Chaos is probably about to break out in the Primordial Continent, I’ve heard some rumors…”

“Hush!”

The rich chubby man quickly interrupted the conversation with a frown.

“Don’t speak such words carelessly. We might be heard by certain beings…”

At these words, others hurriedly covered their mouths and looked around nervously, as if worried that some celestial being might be listening.

“Anyway, these affairs are too far away from us. It’s not our place to worry about them!”

“Fu Yi is right…”

This wealthy man was indeed none other than Fu Yi, a well-known wealthy figure in Happy Town.

Now gathered around him were people of some influence in Happy Town. Each one of them was quite powerful.

“Although Ancient City established its authority due to prevailing conditions, the reason given was quite solid. Du Gang, after all, is touted as the last Ancient God!”

“The last Ancient God?”

The others were puzzled, not understanding what he meant.

Fu Yi laughed, “You probably haven’t heard. We have a family legend about the Ancient God race having a last Ancient God who is the being of ending…”

“Fu Yi, are you suggesting that this Ancient God is but a fleeting phenomenon?”

Fu Yi shook his head, “I don’t know. Our family’s fortune teller only mentioned this much. But the last Ancient God is undoubtedly very powerful…”

His family’s fortune teller once mentioned that this Ancient God could potentially alter the status of the continent.

As to whether it was true or not, he had no idea.

But it never hurts to build a good relationship!

“Fu Yi, what’s your take on the Bodhi seeds released by Li Gu?”

A young man asked.

Fu Yi chuckled, “What else could it be, but to recruit people for their Li family!”

“Those who come from Jiuli Dynasty always show this fanaticism, as if everything they do is for the good of all people. Recruiting manpower is their norm…”

“As for the Bodhi seeds, not to mention others, even if I tried, I might not get them…”

“What?”

The others were taken aback. In their views, Fu Yi was a top-notch figure. If even he couldn’t obtain the Bodhi seeds, how could anyone else do it?

“Fu Yi, I heard that if one can resonate with a Bodhi seed, they could rapidly advance and gain a deity. Is that true?”

“True!”

Fu Yi confirmed, “This thing is said to be related to the Dao. If the talent is exceptional, it might even allow one to cross two tribulations…”

“That’s amazing. It’s a pity that this is beyond our grasp…”

The fact that the treasure was of such high quality that they couldn’t make use of it was truly frustrating!

Whereas Fu Yi seemed to have a hunch that such a high-level treasure could only be utilized by an exceptional genius or someone endowed with a heaven-defying destiny.

And someone who meets this requirement, here in Ancient City Abyss or among the newcomers, one seems particularly suitable.

“Ancient God…”

Lost in thought, he surmised, “I suspect Li Gu aims to recruit talent while also connecting with the Ancient God…”

The so-called Bodhi seeds released by Li Gu were open to anyone to seek and try to conquer.

This was a matter of karma; anyone participating in the Bodhi seed testing would owe him karma. If Li Gu seizes this moment to bring them into his fold, he has a considerable chance of gaining followers.

Therefore, with just one Bodhi seed, he draws in numerous followers and ultimately wins the friendship of an Ancient God. It’s an extremely profitable deal.

“Fu Yi, do you have any intention of recruiting the Ancient God?”

“Recruiting?”

Fu Yi gave a smile, “The Ancient God cannot be recruited. At most, we can form a good relationship. Even if the Ancient God is willing, the Ancient City would not allow their totem and belief to serve as a subordinate to someone else…”

“So we’re just trying to butter him up!”

“The Bodhi Seed is too valuable. Although I could give something of equal or even higher value, the Ancient God may be able to guess something from this, reducing the effect of our attempt to win over him…”

Fu Yi smiled faintly, “Just winning over the Ancient God, I’ll find other ways!”

“Du Gang, you’re finally out!”

Shortly after Long Aotian and his group learned from Da Zhuang that Du Gang was out, they rushed over.

At this moment, they had also heard about the mobilisation of the Demon Suppression Legion and understood that this time, it was to help Du Gang recover his prestige on behalf of the Ancient God’s army.

“You, your reputation is quite high, I heard that hundreds of Demon Suppression Legions have been dispatched to various families…”

The Little Hawk King laughed, “Well, this time, your fame completely spread out!”

“You don’t know, the whole Happy Town is buzzing about you!”

“At least in South Yue, your name is now well known by many people…”

As he spoke, his voice contained a hint of envy.

He, Long Aotian and others have spent a lot of time finding opponents for matches in Happy Town, using a lot of efforts to establish some fame, but their fame was only limited to Happy Town.

But Du Gang, as soon as he came out, his fame spread far and wide.

“That’s not fair!”

Long Aotian protested, “In order to spread my fame, I’ve spent money to hire a Third Tribulation God Spirit to stage a show with me, and now you…”

He was quite straightforward. Many people witnessing this, did the same, not just him.

This was true for others like Little Hawk King, Long Aoshi and others as well.

As for Du Gang, he didn’t react too much. For him, it was normal to have such a great reputation.

When he was in the Universe, he also had a decent reputation, so he didn’t feel too much about it.

“What’s the situation in Happy Town?”

Compared to these superficial reputations, he was more interested in the situation in Happy Town.

“Hey, what could it be, it’s either fighting all day or indulging in various kinds of pleasure!”

“All over Happy Town, the atmosphere matches its name. After every round of battle, everyone would brag about their achievements…”

Suddenly, Long Aotian said, “By the way, do you know about something called the Bodhi Seed?”

At his words, the eyes of the Little Hawk King also lit up, interjecting, “Yes, yes! I recently heard that Li Gu came out with a Bodhi Seed, planning to give it to someone fortunate. Anyone can go find him and test if they are fated with the Bodhi Seed…”

“Bodhi Seed?”

Du Gang was startled, and asked, “What is that?”

“Bodhi Seed, the legendary treasure, I don’t know if we have any in Ancient City. At least, no one from my family gave me any…”

Long Aotian continued, “It’s a divine object that can improve the cultivation of spirits…”

Improve cultivation?

The Little Hawk King was also very excited, “It’s not just simply improving cultivation. This thing, once you can activate its divine resonance, then you will certainly advance by at least one rank!”

“This is a rank in the God Spirit realm, and I’ve heard that some individuals with extremely high talent can advance two ranks with a single Bodhi Seed!”

“Directly advance ranks?”

Du Gang was shocked and found it hard to believe. Could there be such a thing?

He currently has no clue about how to achieve the Second Tribulation, and if he has the Bodhi Seed, does it mean he really has a chance to directly undergo the Second Tribulation?

“Don’t be too optimistic, I heard this thing requires a lot of talent. If you are not the absolute top, you don’t qualify to use it…”

“I heard that even Li Gu himself can’t use the Bodhi Seed. That’s why he took it out to make friends with others…”

Long Aotian look at the Little Hawk King and sneered, “You look so smug, maybe you can’t even use it!”

The Little Hawk King retorted, “Do you think you can use it?”

Du Gang didn’t get involved in their argument and was quietly contemplating what the Bodhi Seed might be capable of.

If it really could lead to an increase of a rank, it would indeed be an unrivalled treasure. freewebnøvel.coɱ

He quickly asked, “What do I need to do to test whether I have a fate with the Bodhi Seed?”

Seeing the two still arguing, intractable in their dispute, Du Gang turned to Da Zhuang.

Da Zhuang, as straightforward as ever, said without hesitation, “I heard that Prince Li Gu set three different levels of challenges according to cultivation levels, divided into the first three tribulations, middle three tribulations, and last three tribulations. Anyone who passes his set challenges can attempt to communicate with the Bodhi Seed once!”

“I understand. So, for the early, middle and late stages of the God Spirit Level, there is a challenge for each. Anyone who passes the challenge corresponding to his cultivation level can attempt to use the Bodhi Seed…”

Looking at the two people who were still arguing, Du Gang asked, “Did you two try the Bodhi Seed?”

“No!”

The two stopped, shaking their heads simultaneously, “We were planning to go, but we heard you came out, so we came straight here!”

Du Gang nodded and smiled, “Alright, let’s go together now to see what this Bodhi Seed is all about…”

“Okay!”

Soon, the group, including Jue, set out toward Happy Town.

When Du Gang arrived in Happy Town, he was stunned by the sight before him.

The original appearance of Happy Town was nowhere to be found. It could no longer be called a town. High-rise buildings were everywhere, carrying traditional elegance, bustling with activity and packed with a crowd, just like a densely populated big city.

“There are so many people here?”

He could hardly believe it because these people looked young. At least they were all young people.

Although many older people also had young appearances, he could see the vicissitudes of life in their eyes.

Here, the way to judge someone’s age, besides professional means, was by observing their eyes if judged by appearance.

As the saying goes, eyes are the windows to the soul. If a person’s eyes are clear as spring, he must be young, not yet influenced by the mortal world.

On the other hand, if a person’s eyes are muddled and filled with fatigue, he is undoubtedly an old man who has experienced a lot of life.

All over Happy Town, there were entertainment facilities.

There were casinos, taverns and even places like the Dream Building all around.

During the day, the people around seemed a bit restrained and didn’t go too far.

But now, as night fell, everyone started to feel a little excited.

The girls from those special venues, all dressed up in beautiful clothes, were attracting customers.

Du Gang glanced at them and noticed that everyone except Qiao Bing, who wore no expression, seemed to be enjoying themselves.

Clearly, these guys often visited these places.

“This place is lively at night. During the day, people are basically fighting. Only when it gets dark do they relax…”

Long Aotian wore a lewd smile, clearly indicating he was a frequent patron of these places.

“Do you want to go in and have fun?”

Du Gang shook his head, “No, just take me to Li Gu directly to see the Bodhi Seed.”
