章節 51: ~Take Charge~
'Ah... Did I pass out?' Huno asked slowly. 'Oh he is up,' Chiro said. 'Senior brother, are you okay?' Xue Li's voice entered his ears. 'I'm good, just exhausted,' Huno replied and looked around. Everyone except Luna was in the room, staring at him. 'Just exhausted my foot, those attacks you received caused you severe wound,' sister Sarai's voice sounded worriedly. 'Mom, I'm good,' Huno said and squeezed her hand softly. 'Welcome back, brother,' Lee Wei said. 'Thanks, how's everyone?' Huno asked. 'We are good,' an unfamiliar voice came. Huno looked over and saw Ma Lie smiling at him. 'Junior brother can talk, I'm so happy for you,' Huno exclaimed happily. 'Thank you,' Ma Lie said.
'How long was I unconscious?' Huno asked. 'Two days, well, almost two days,' Chiro replied. 'Where's little sister?' Xue Li asked. 'She has something important to do in the enemy's territory,' Huno replied, sitting up. 'How come we have three legendary realms? My memories merged with yours but my mind is in an exhausted state, so I don't really comprehend it,' Huno said. 'I discovered how to break through and taught our family members. Well, your guess on this world having a limit was true, but the limit is huge. Almost a hundred legendary realm experts can exist here,' Chiro said. 'How do you know that?' Huno asked. 'When one becomes a legendary realm for the first time, there's a feeling. It's as if we are filling an empty spot. At that moment, we vaguely feel the realm's limit for a brief period,' Chiro explained. 'I discovered breaking through to the legendary realm isn't only by changing silver core to gold and Qi energy to legendary Qi energy, but it also involves the formation of soul space,' he added. 'Soul space? What's that?' Huno asked. 'It's a space you create within the body for your soul. I believe the realms above the legendary realm involve the cultivation of the soul. The Qi refinement stage to the legendary realm is the cultivation of the body,' Chiro replied.
'The Legendary Realm is just the final stage of the body cultivation and the substage or foundation for higher realms,' he added. 'If what you say is true, then the great families should know about it. Why don't they have more legendary realms?' Huno asked. 'One is it is difficult to create soul space, two they broke through by mistake and don't understand the soul space, you can't teach what you don't quite understand and three the legendary Qi energy in the Saint realm is extremely thin, remember before you left you dropped those yellow stones, well they became very useful,' Chiro explained.
'So what you are saying is if the legendary Qi energy in this realm was more dense, there would have been more legendary realm experts?' Huno asked. 'Yes, there's a great possibility of people accidentally breaking through. It's just the energy is quite thin, you can barely feel it,' Chiro said. 'So how the hell did you understand?' Huno asked. Chiro hit his head with his hand and said, 'Dummy, I was born as a consciousness, basically just a soul, the same way you have more understanding of the human anatomy than me. I have more understanding on soul matters,'. 'Understood, brief me about the overall situation,' Huno said.
'Oh, I wonder why we subconsciously get serious and take charge during situations like this,' Chiro said. 'Especially when we feel no one around wants to,' he added. Ma Lie, Lee Wei and Xue Li burst into laughter immediately.
'I'm serious, look now he is taking charge and I feel like sitting back and relaxing,' Chiro said. 'What do you mean?' Huno asked. 'When you were away, he took charge and defended this place. You need to have seen him. He was more serious than you, senior brother,' Xue Li said. 'Even when the great families wanted to use their strength to take over this place he didn't flinch, he told them frankly either they obey the rules or they can leave,' Ma Lie said and continued, 'they wanted to use their numbers against he, big brother and Shin but after he used the formation to attack one of their peak rank several times they all became humble,'.
'Oh, that's how a peak rank got severely wounded. I'm so proud of myself,' Huno smirked. 'Shut up,' Chiro said. 'Ahh...' Huno howled in pain. 'What's wrong?' sister Sarai asked. 'Senior brother!' Xue Li and Ma Lie cried. 'Brother, are you okay?' Lee Wei asked.
'I'm alright, Chiro's memories clouded my mind,' Huno replied, swiping his bloody nose. 'You needed to rest more,' sister Sarai said. 'True, but Chiro and I have work to do,' Huno said, holding his head with his left hand. 'I see. That's the reason this place hasn't completely fallen. They are afraid of being hit by the formation,' he said. Chiro's memories became more clear, and he had a better understanding of the situation.
The Jia empire's power houses didn't attack the formation directly for fear of being injured by an unexpected attack from the formation. So Emperor city became the battle for the great families and Jia empire. The Jia empire did attack several times with full force, but they weren't left unharmed. With that lesson, they left the formation alone until they could find a countermeasure.
The formation had broken twice. The first time wasn't a big deal, but the second was a bloody battle over the pillars. While the great families fought desperately to protect the pillars, the Jia empire fought to destroy it.
With the large number of refugees, families and sub sect living in here for months, the huge amount of Qi energy in the Leechiro family compound has almost dried up.
The time necessary to gather more energy had increased, so if the formation were to collapse again, the battle over the pillars will be extremely long. The great families didn't have the confidence to fight for that long.
'Let's go, we can't risk the formation collapsing,' Huno said and stood up. 'Lee Wei, please help him,' sister Sarai said. 'Yes mom,' Lee Wei replied. Huno looked at Lee Wei and then at sister Sarai. 'What?' Lee Wei asked, laughing. 'Nothing, let's go,' Huno said and laughed. Lee Wei helped Huno stand and then they all went out.
'The inner courtyard is empty?' Huno asked, flying to the sky. 'I was expecting others to be here,' he added.
'My husband and junior brother didn't agree, apart from us, the heads of the light guards, sister Yu and junior sister Su. No one is permitted to step in here,' Xue Li replied.
'That's nice,' Huno said.
'Yeah, the great families heads, the Twilight family, the array masters and their families and some artifacts refiners that work for us, alongside their families lives in the compounds around the inner courtyard everyone else is living in the compounds at peripheral or outside the compound,' Xue Li explained. 'The formation is able to cover a wide area around the compound,'.
'What about the traps?' Huno asked.
'They are manually activated so they won't go off on their own,' Chiro replied.
'Okay, what's the estimated number of the light guards?' Huno asked.
'Within my orders, the elite gathered children from big cities, small cities, towns, villages and ruins,' Chiro said. 'Anyone below twenty, who was on the street, lives in an orphanage home, lives alone in a village or town or in the forest and mountain, as long as the person is willing the person is to be brought back, I also told them to search for those hidden slave sellers and buy as many slave below the age of twenty as possible, families willing to sell their slave were also sought for and within a year and a half we had a total of six thousand plus, this number was still increasing until the war started,' he added.
'I see. How come you placed such an order?' Huno asked. 'You and I both know you wanted to place that order for a long time. You just didn't have the capital and personnels to enforce it,' Chiro said. Huno laughed and said, 'true, so how many elite guards do we have?'.
'Currently we have about two thousand elite guards, nine hundred gold rank guards while the silver or disciple guards are about two thousand four hundred,' Xue Li said. 'Gold ranks guards are high rank True realm. They and the elite are the ones who step out of the formation to fight. We lost about eight hundred elite and gold rank,' she added.
They all flew out of the inner courtyard and headed towards the light guard area. Along the way, a group of people flew towards them. 'I see. I guess those coming are the legendary realm experts,' Huno said. 'Yes, they've been waiting to see what you want to do,' Lee Wei said. 'I'll send them away,' he added. 'No need,' Huno said. 'Oh very well then,' Lee Wei said. 'What do you plan on doing? Concerning the war, I mean?' Chiro asked. 'I don't know. We'll keep defending for a while. If Luna isn't back after a long time, then we'll release a full head on attack against them,' Huno replied.
