Chen Tian opened his eyes in the Celestial Mechanism Pavilion, his consciousness returning from the game world. As he stood up, the entire house shook and shattered. He raised his arm, and the commotion ceased. Chen Tian snapped his fingers, and the flow of time around him froze. He felt the power within him and was astonished, "Now I am stronger than any dimension. This time, I will definitely kill every single Evil Spirit Race member."
Chen Tian understood his mission and responsibility, his determination evident. His figure flickered, and everyone who had entered this world was taken away, including his clones. It was as if their information had vanished from the world. Tian Mang Xing looked at a cave and wondered, "Why am I here?"
Chen Tian's departure took all beings and information with him. Everyone on the Northern Yuan Continent forgot the memories and existence of some people. In Huaxia, Chen Tian's figure appeared in the center of the fortress. He looked at the movements around him, took a deep breath, and slowly controlled the rhythm, suppressing his power little by little. The giant black hole in space slowly shrank; it was caused by Chen Tian's power.
Chen Tian slowly familiarized himself with his strength, as he had just completed the fusion of the Chaos Origin power and the Immortal Martial Origin power. It was natural that he couldn't control both at first. If Chen Tian appeared here, the entire world would collapse due to his power. Reluctantly, Chen Tian had the system seal the power within him. With the system's help, Chen Tian finally stabilized his power. Compared to before, he was immensely stronger. Even with only one percent of his power, and yes, Huaxia's power level was lower than the Divine Realm, the highest power used was only one percent. Yet, this one percent was enough for Chen Tian to fight the Evil Spirit Race.
"System, when will my power be fully unleashed?"
Chen Tian was curious. It felt stifling to possess power he couldn't use. The system replied calmly, "When the host travels to the Saint God Realm, your power will be restored. Also, a warning: your current panel is the strongest state in this world. In higher-level worlds, it will change."
"Understood."
Chen Tian immediately realized that going to the Saint God Realm was something for later. He needed to resolve the world's crisis first. Chen Tian looked at the sleeping people behind him. These were the warriors of Huaxia. He hadn't brought out the cultivators; these people were sufficient for the current stage. As for the cultivators, he would let them train for another day.
Chen Tian opened a vortex channel. Two days had passed. Chen Tian had originally planned to deal with the Yun Shui Guild first, as the Divine Realm was the priority. Only by resolving the Evil Spirit Race in the Divine Realm would the Cultivation Realm and the real world be safe from their attacks.
Chen Tian extended his palm, and streams of light flowed from the sky, entering the bodies of these warriors. Looking closely, their auras gradually strengthened. Chen Tian used his own methods to help them complete the Immortal Martial fusion. The reason Chen Tian left the game was that the Southern Fortress had been breached. Chen Tian, Gezi, and others were still wondering why there was no information from the Southern Fortress. By the time Gezi reacted, the news of the Southern Fortress's fall had spread.
Chen Tian was forced to go to the Southern Fortress to help. Compared to here, this place hadn't been attacked yet. The Southern Fortress had been breached, and countless Evil Spirit Race members were advancing. Gezi couldn't leave the front line, and Shuzi and others were struggling in the south. Chen Tian needed to go and provide support.
Chen Tian looked at his clone. The original plan was completely disrupted. This clone would be stationed at the Northern Fortress. Chen Tian touched the clone's forehead with a finger. The clone's aura surged. The clone possessed the same strength and memories as Chen Tian.
"Clone, I'm leaving this to you. I need to go to the south to help."
"Main body, don't worry. I'm here. The Northern Fortress will not fall."
The clone reassured Chen Tian, who knew the clone's strength and felt completely at ease. Moreover, this clone could now be considered another Chen Tian, a new life. The world origin here was not Huaxia, but the Northern Yuan Continent.
Chen Tian informed the Heavenly Dao and did not suppress it. This clone of Chen Tian would not be affected by suppression and would always be at his peak. Chen Tian intended to resolve the Evil Spirit Race from both worlds this time before returning to the game. This would take time, and everything had happened earlier than he had predicted.
Why was this happening?
Chen Tian took a step forward, and his figure vanished, his movement unseen, like the wind or light, invisible. The Southern Fortress was an endless expanse of snow-capped mountains in the extreme north. The city behind the Southern Fortress was still some distance from the capital. Along the way, one had to pass several snow-capped mountains. Because it was perpetually surrounded by extreme cold, it was covered in white snow. There were no cities here, but there were towns south of the capital.
Currently, south of the capital, in a large town, numerous warriors were carrying things, slowly building the fortress walls. Shuzi stood by and asked, "Young Master Wang, how much longer will it take to finish building the fortress?"
"Reporting, sir, it will take three days at this pace."
"No, three days are not enough. The Evil Spirit Race can cross the extreme cold snowfields in just a day and a half. Speed it up."
Shuzi's expression was grim as he looked ahead. Wang Kai waved his arm, and his subordinates understood.
Shuzi returned to a room, and a screen appeared in the air, showing Gezi's face. Gezi asked with concern, "Shuzi, are you okay?"
"How is it on your end?"
"Not good. The Evil Spirit Race seems to be launching a full-scale attack. I can't leave the front line, but I've notified Chen Tian. He'll be there soon."
Gezi said with a solemn expression. The full-scale attack by the Evil Spirit Race suggested they were going for broke. If humanity won this battle, the entire Huaxia would be safe.
"But I fear the Evil Spirit Race might have other motives. This sudden full-scale attack feels strange."
Shuzi pondered. Thinking carefully, the Evil Spirit Race had never acted like this before. A full-scale attack, a complete eradication. From his memories of the Divine Realm, they would only launch an overwhelming victory with a powerful lineup and force after understanding a world's full strength.
What was going on with a full-scale attack immediately after breaking the seal?
The Evil Spirit Race's attack method was completely different.
"I've thought about it, but I can't figure it out. However, this is an opportunity. If we win this battle, all the Evil Spirit Race members whose seals are broken will disappear. It will be easier for us in the final battle, as their numbers are too great. Less is better now."
"That's true!"
"Gezi is right, Shuzi, it's okay. I'm still here."
A voice sounded next to Shuzi, and a spatial vortex opened. Chen Tian walked out. Shuzi and Gezi smiled, "It seems your strength has recovered, Chen Tian."
"Yes! Even stronger. Now, I have the responsibility and mission to protect this world."
"Don't forget about us. Although Chen Tian and Chen Ling cannot participate in the battle, you know that."
"I know. I can't change that. I can only say I'm powerless. In the end, only the three of us will survive."
"Sigh!"
Shuzi and Gezi sighed simultaneously. This was the price. In the end, only three of them would survive.
