Chapter 2113: To Repel Foreign Invaders, One Must First Ensure Internal Stability
Through that terrifying great figure, the two Saint Lords of the Bull Demon clan had already come to deeply believe in the fearsome nature of the Ghost Race.
Even ordinary Transcendents would retreat at the sight of the Ghost Race, while Saint Lords would certainly die if they encountered them. Just this statement alone was enough to illustrate how terrifying the Ghost Race was.
He did indeed have trump cards that could kill the hidden experts of various races.
But he was also only a Saint Lord, and his trump cards were useless against the Ghost Race.
Now the Deep Abyss Demon Lord and Black Golden Saint Lord were discussing how to deal with the Ghost Race. He felt these two fellows were seeking death.
But he couldn't say that. The Blood Bull Saint Lord was very anxious inside.
The Deep Abyss Demon Lord's gaze swept over, "Blood Bull Saint Lord, do you have any good ideas?"
The Blood Bull Saint Lord pretended to think, "At present, there are no good ideas. The Ghost Race appears and disappears unpredictably. No one knows where they will show up next."
"First it was the Blue Crane clan, then the Cold Water clan, and now the Ximu clan. These three races are completely unrelated, and their locations are very different."
The Black Golden Saint Lord said, "Actually, there is some connection. They are all located on the edge of the domain, very close to the outer space."
The Deep Abyss Demon Lord's voice was cold, "That's right, this is the common point of the three clans. I guess the Ghost Race has actually been active along the boundary between the inner and outer domains, so the three attacks were all on races in the marginal areas."
The Black Golden Saint Lord continued, "Besides the same location, these three clans have another thing in common - they don't have any Transcendents in their clans."
The Deep Abyss Demon Lord agreed with his view, "The Black Golden Saint Lord is right, this is another common point. So we can deduce that the Ghost Race can sense the strength of various races, and they choose to attack weaker races."
"From this we can infer that the Ghost Race is actually not as strong as we thought, just that their actions are too mysterious."
"If we can catch them head-on, we may be able to deal with them."
The two Saint Lords spoke in turn, making their case eloquently.
If he hadn't received warnings from that great figure, even the Blood Bull Saint Lord would have almost been convinced.
But now, no matter what they said, the Blood Bull Saint Lord felt it was untrustworthy.
He could only go along with it, planning to make a show of effort without actually exerting himself, and flee immediately if things looked bad.
The Deep Abyss Demon Lord said in a low voice, "There's a human saying I think is good - to repel foreign invaders, one must first ensure internal stability. If we want to join forces against the human race, we must first resolve the Ghost Race issue."
"If we can't even maintain internal stability, how can we talk about attacking the human race together!"
His words were decisive, determining the direction of the Hundred Race Alliance's actions going forward.
Then the Hundred Race Alliance began to make arrangements against the Ghost Race, setting up various defensive measures and conducting close surveillance.
As long as the Ghost Race dared to appear again, several Saint Lords would take action immediately to deal with them.
The Blood Bull Saint Lord listened to their discussions, rarely offering opinions, only thinking about how he should escape if they really encountered the Ghost Race, and in what posture he should flee!
In the human Divine City, the Heavenly Saint Lord looked at the battle situation just reported by the Human Emperor Network.
"It seems the information we released has taken effect. With Lin's cooperation, the Hundred Race Alliance has begun to make arrangements against the Ghost Race, and the pressure on the front lines has eased considerably."
The Hao Saint Lord drank tea with a smile, "We expected this would happen. This is good, we can take the initiative during this opportunity and let those youngsters get some good training."
The Heavenly Saint Lord said, "The battlefield is the best place to temper people. Although our casualties in recent years have been higher than in previous years, the speed of cultivation has also accelerated, and many talented individuals worth nurturing have emerged in our race."
In recent years, because of the constant battles with the Hundred Race Alliance, many talented individuals have emerged from the human race during the fighting.
They have already been marked by the Human Emperor Network and are being intensively cultivated.
The War God Temple has also recruited many people from among them, passing on secret techniques from within the War God Temple to further enhance their combat power.
The human race's foundation and resilience are much stronger than other races, especially when facing pressure, they show even more astonishing performance.
The more time is delayed, the better it is for the human race.
Now the human race needs to turn from passive to active, and begin to take the initiative to attack. This way, the pressure faced by the Hundred Race Alliance will increase.
Both sides have their own considerations, constantly making arrangements and changing strategies.
Meanwhile, Lin Moyu, who was regarded as the Ghost Race, was still immersed in his own cultivation.
Shortly after he left the Ximu clan, the reward from the Great World Rune arrived as scheduled.
Lin Moyu once again felt the joy of the Great World Rune, and some of the karma entangled around it lessened.
As a member of the Great World, Lin Moyu also felt a sense of relief.
Under the reward of the Great World, he successfully entered the state of enlightenment, and the enlightenment time increased compared to last time, reaching three days.
During the three days of enlightenment, most of the time was spent cultivating the laws of time, and the remaining time was spent cultivating the laws of space.
The mastery of the two laws improved again, from 22% to 24%.
Like last time, the improvement was still only 2%.
Although the enlightenment time increased by one day, a 50% increase compared to last time, the degree of understanding of the laws did not change, still at 2%.
The reason for this was that resistance appeared in the enlightenment state, which Lin Moyu called dao poison.
The remaining power from the previous two enlightenments accumulated like poison, affecting the effectiveness of this enlightenment.
Lin Moyu spent some effort to merge the two laws.
"I can't continue anymore, I need to wait for a period of time to digest the residual toxicity produced by enlightenment."
Three enlightenments in a short period of time made Lin Moyu feel the after-effects of enlightenment.
This also shows that everything has two sides, even the best pills have toxicity.
Lin Moyu sensed the residual dao poison in his body. He could feel the dao poison slowly dissipating, very slowly, but fortunately very steadily.
After careful calculation, he got a rough number.
"It will take about fifty years, fifty years for the dao poison to completely dissipate."
"Then I'll go back first, and use these fifty years to comprehend runes."
The warship sailed silently through space, flying quickly through vast distances along deep space.
Just a month later, Lin Moyu returned to the dark void.
Then he left the warship and traversed the dark void alone.
With his mastery of spatial laws reaching 24%, his control over the laws was stronger, and his perception of space became more acute.
Now each step could reach 50 million kilometers, one step per second.
At the Saint Lord level, only the Saint Lords of the Golden Eagle clan could compare when initiating spatial jumps.
But the flexibility of spatial laws was far beyond what the Golden Eagle clan's Saint Lords could compare to.
If he activated the time laws as well, time would double, two steps per second, reaching a speed of 100 million kilometers.
Going a step further, merging the two laws, the effect of spatial laws would double again, reaching an astonishing speed of 200 million kilometers per second.
Lin Moyu only needed a few steps to cross ordinary galaxies.
However, the effect after merging the two laws was still not as good as the Three Light Rune.
If he used the Three Light Rune, the speed could reach 450 million kilometers per second.
This speed had already far surpassed ordinary Transcendent realm beings.
Only some Transcendent realm beings who specialized in speed might be able to compare with Lin Moyu.
Although it was still slower than the Wings of Death, it was more flexible and could be used in actual combat.
He tried to see if he could draw more powerful runes, but unfortunately did not succeed.
Although his understanding of runes had increased a lot, the Three Light Rune was still his current limit.
To draw more powerful space-time runes, he needed to advance further in his attainment of runes.
Space-time distorted around him as Lin Moyu appeared and disappeared silently, traversing the dark void without a sound.
