Even so, this chain of lightning balls would still deal a fatal attack to his current spiritual power. However, the problem was that Wang Zhong's bottom line was not just this. He moved his body extremely quickly and avoided the instability in the center. He allowed the lightning power to scatter in all directions and concentrated his spiritual power to defend his vital parts.
It was an impractical idea to not be injured in this kind of concentrated attack. As long as the attack did not hinder his movement, Wang Zhong would take the initiative to endure it. Furthermore, the core of this was that this artifact was used for testing. Thus, it would adjust according to the power of the intruder. There was no doubt that this adjustment was a very big problem. Everyone was thinking about how to charge through in one go, the faster the better. However, Wang Zhong's train of thought went beyond this. He saw the artifact itself as well as the situation itself.
Thus, the flaws were rather obvious.
Wang Zhong charged through the obstacles, and the technical aspect was no longer important. Even the terrifying infinite lightning prison did not appear, but he had already charged through.
The defensive power of his divine cells was extremely strong, and he controlled half of his power. The scattered lightning attacks were insignificant when they hit Wang Zhong's body. Furthermore, Lao Wang's movement was very powerful. He used his relatively weak spiritual power to continuously unleash explosive movements.
The next second, the lightning region had calmed down. Wang Zhong's figure stood directly opposite the lightning region and was completely unharmed!
The entire Arena had quietened down. However, after the thunder stopped, it seemed even quieter.
In the spectator area, Jhonas's mouth was wide open. He thought that Boss was going to use his' precious' head to forcefully resist the lightning. He never thought that he would use this method. Cool! Too cool! As expected of Boss! Even a realistic and unscrupulous businessman like Jhonas could not help but feel as if he was in a dream at this moment. This was a smart person!
The spectator area was completely silent, let alone the 900 pupils in the Combat Cultivation Hall. The surroundings were deathly silent. Countless people stared at the figure who had passed through to the other side of the lightning region. All of them had strange and complicated expressions.
"Isn't he being shameless?"
"This Earthling is too despicable. He even has this kind of operation. Damn, if I had known, I would not have put in so much effort!"
Amidst the noisy discussions and disdain, a rough voice finally broke everything. "Good! Good, good, good!
The Titan supervisor said the word "good" several times in a row and was slightly surprised. Although this little fellow from Earth often brought him surprises and joy, this time, he planned to cut down Wang Zhong's spirit. He also needed to balance some things in the Combat Cultivation Hall. If he allowed a little fellow from a low-leveled civilization to be in the limelight, he might be killed. He never thought that he would underestimate Wang Zhong's intelligence. Wang Zhong was able to look at the problem from a different perspective and boldly try something.
He had foresight and guts.
"Kid, you've surprised me again." The Titan supervisor laughed out loud. "But I like it. I'll give you an additional 20 points!"
Twenty points …
It seemed that ever since the Combat Cultivation Hall had started, all the first place rewards had been taken away by this fellow. This time, he had even increased the reward from 10 points to 20 points. The Titan supervisor's habit of casually changing the rules he had set … was too willful!
This time, it was no longer just mockery and disdainful hostility. Instead, it was a thick and naked hostility. There was no doubt that Lao Wang's strength had been acknowledged by the supervisor. Furthermore, under these circumstances, if he wanted to become famous in the Combat Cultivation Hall and attract the attention of the Titan supervisor, finding an opportunity to kill Wang Zhong in front of everyone in the future was undoubtedly the best choice. He was a rich source of experience!
Lao Wang rubbed his nose and did not care at all. He was already used to this kind of hostile gaze.
It did not matter. They could do whatever they wanted. He had to snatch the points. He did not want to waste his time on some senseless matters.
"You can leave now." The Titan supervisor waved his large hand. This was the first time that the Combat Cultivation Hall had allowed someone to leave class early. It seemed like a casual arrangement, but in reality, it was enough to show how special this Earthling was in the Titan supervisor's heart. Then, he turned to the others. "Are you all very happy? Do you think that you have found a loophole? Unfortunately, that is not the case.
Later on, I will raise the level of Thunder. What happened just now cannot be repeated! "When he saw the group of people wailing in grief, the supervisor was exceptionally happy. The first person was a smart person, but those who imitated later on were idiots.
Wang Zhong did not feel anything, but in the crowd, a few malicious gazes were already looking at his back.
Balor instantly felt as if his face had been slapped swollen. His gaze as he looked at Wang Zhong was about to reach a critical point. This was not the first time this had happened, and it was not just a matter of face. Indeed, many experts and unexpected natural endowments would appear in the Combat Cultivation Hall every year, but this definitely did not include an Earthling!
… …
100 60% Vitality Supplement Pills and 20,000 Silver Star Stones were definitely a large sum of business to the Heavenly Treasures Street. However, to the merchants that Jhonas had come into contact with, it did not seem to be worth mentioning.
He had thought that it would take some time to process this batch of pills, but he never expected that on the third day, the other party would send a messenger over to deliver the money.
20,000 Silver Star Stones. Jhonas's friend had not even started to sell the pills, but he had simply gathered the money and sent it over. In Jhonas's words, the other party had already appraised this batch of Vitality Supplement Pills. The quality of these pills was considered outstanding among the 60% -pills, and there was no pressure for a single pill to be sold for more than 200 Silver Star Stones. There were also 20 to 30 70% -pills mixed in, but they were calculated according to the price of 60% -pills. This could not be considered as helping out because of Jhonas. In reality, the other party had profited greatly.
However, Lao Wang did not care about this. There was definitely a difference in the quality of pills through visual inspection and professional appraisal. Even an experienced alchemist would inevitably make a mistake based on visual inspection. It was already rather good to be able to make a rough visual inspection. Furthermore, they were all doing business. How could he not allow others to earn some profit? Lao Wang did not care about this.
Small streams could flow for a long time. Wang Zhong still wanted to treat this place as a stable sales channel.
However, the speed at which he cultivated the Devouring Heaven Technique increased day by day. This was built on the foundation that the Vitality Supplement Pills in his possession were being consumed every day. The remaining 100 or so pills from last time seemed like a lot, but in reality, they could not last for long.
He asked Nini to bring 10,000 Silver Star Stones to Heavenly Treasures Street and asked Old Cow to purchase another batch of medicinal ingredients for the Vitality Supplement Pill. Lao Wang was now more and more enthusiastic about pill refinery. His cultivation speed was fast, he had more comprehension, and he had increased his experience in pill refinery. Furthermore, he had harvested the Vitality Supplement Pill. He had killed many birds with one stone and simply could not stop. Of course, there was an even more vulgar reason that he had to pay attention to, and that was money.
It was not too obvious now that he was refining level-9 pills. However, if he really started to refine higher-level pills, the 10,000 to 20,000 Silver Star Stones in his pocket would not even make a splash. Pills and money were problems that Lao Wang could not get rid of for now. Fortunately, he had a fragment world. Selling top-grade medicinal ingredients directly was actually more profitable than selling pills. However, pill refinement itself was a kind of cultivation process. Moreover, it would be too conspicuous if he kept selling top-grade medicinal ingredients. It would be far better to package himself as a genius alchemist and sell some pills, which would be much more logical.
… …
In the distant Earth.
Just like the Great Cataclysm, rapid changes gradually became a "daily routine" in people's lives. People no longer cried out in surprise at the magical changes. Instead, they desperately tried to catch up to these changes.
This was completely similar to the Great Cataclysm that the old world had encountered. Those who could not adapt were eliminated.
Young people who were more adaptable to the changes in the environment gradually came to the stage. They forcefully attacked the old system. In the new world, there was no place for conservatives to survive. Everyone was moving forward bravely. It was like sailing against the current. Once you stopped moving forward, no matter what you were, what you did, or what you owned, you would only be left behind. Once you lost your job and status, you were just a cargo that was carried away in a box. Your only contribution to the human society was to enrich and maintain the genetic diversity of the species.
No one would wait for you to slowly catch up. Humans could not afford to wait. The past information blockade had been replaced by the current sharing of information.
Tianjing had become the hottest administrative district in the Federation. All new things and technologies were tested in Tianjing. Once Tianjing believed that it was feasible, other cities in other regions would follow suit.
Meanwhile, the heart of Tianjing was a massive Star Palace.
In the center of the Star Palace were thousands of massive rooms with teleportation gates. Through these teleportation gates, the Star Palace was connected to various spaces in the Fifth Dimension, including the Holy Land, dimensional colonies, dimensional resource mining areas … At the same time, it was also connected to the Tutankhamun Empire in Africa, the Pampas and the Amazon in South America, as well as the New World Empire in North America. After the fall of the Kaiser Empire, Ma Dong mercilessly allowed the New World to take over North America. The name of the Emperor of the Empire was impressively written with Wang Zhong's name, even though this did not mean anything to Lao Wang.
Of course, the destruction of the old world had occurred. The old powers always wanted to restore the luxurious life that they once had but could not truly cherish. When those in power lost their power, they realized that their so-called noble bloodline was just an illusion brought about by power. Without the Kaiser Empire, they were no different from those ordinary heroic warriors.
Some people moved in the dark like rats in the sewers. They talked loudly and once pinned their hopes on the troops that Solomon had brought to the Fifth Dimension. However, they soon despaired. Those soldiers would never return. They were recruited by the Holy Land and completely dispersed. They became immigrants to many colonies in the Fifth Dimension. Those who stayed on Earth were also sent to the Fifth Dimension by the New World Empire. To them, that was a new beginning, a new beginning that was more attractive than being cannon fodder. Perhaps there were some people who were foolishly loyal, but in the new environment, they could only submit to new challenges. Furthermore, with the implementation of new techniques and the establishment of new armies, the role they could play became increasingly insignificant every day.
After the construction of the New World Empire's Star Palace was completed, the nobles completely became history. They were left behind by the rapidly developing human world. Their once lofty and eloquent words became nothing more than endless complaints after drinking.
The Star Palace was connected to the various Star Palaces in Asia, Europe, Africa, and South America. Through it, one could reach any country one wanted to go to in one day. Then, one could use the armored railway to reach the main cities of the various empires. The scale of the armored railway was expanding. Ma Dong had put in a lot of effort in this aspect. His goal was to re-establish a great connection with the Earth.
For the citizens of the New World, as long as they could bear it, they could even apply to enter the legendary Fifth Dimension for a legendary trip. Ordinary people could also have dreams and expectations.
The rapid flow of population and the catalysis from the Star Alliance accelerated the integration of human cultures. The rapid development of civilization made the New World Empire even more stable.
All kinds of people came and went in a hurry. There was no day or night in the Star Palace, only work that would never stop.
This was even more so for the room with the transmission door. At every moment, there would be people entering or leaving through it. There were civilians dragging their luggage, as well as soldiers with weapons. They lined up and entered through the same transmission door.
In the Star Palace, the tallest building was a pitch-black tower. This was also the hub of the Star Palace.
Hymin was examining a list of goods that was about to be sent to the Star Alliance. Looking at the various resources and materials listed on the list, she let out a long sigh. She cursed those greedy and insatiable Star Alliance merchants in her heart. They imported these materials from the humans, but they were still unwilling to tell the humans what these materials were and what they were used for in the Star Alliance.
Hymin signed the permit to pass through the list. Suddenly, red light shone from outside the window. Hymin was slightly startled. She stood up and walked to the window. This was the 50th floor of the Black Tower. Through the glass window, she could see the entire transmission door area below.
A group of death warriors dressed in red robes were currently exchanging fire with the guards. They were all well-equipped, and all of them had runic weapons of the same color. It was very clear that they had entered this place through the teleportation array. Hymin confirmed that this group of people had arrived at the Star Palace of the Amazon Empire. After entering this place, they should have immediately occupied this region.
As they fought, another group of sacrificial soldiers installed explosive devices behind them.
Their goal was to destroy the Star Palace. This kind of terrorist was no longer a new thing.
Reynolds, who was in charge of guarding the Star Palace, also appeared at the scene. He flew into a rage and shouted. The army quickly took over the scene. Very quickly, the sacrificial soldiers suffered heavy casualties. The rune equipment on their bodies could not block the attacks of the New Army's weapons.
"Boom …"
Just as the situation was about to be controlled, a blazing white light suddenly erupted from the middle of the sacrificial soldiers. They had detonated the explosive devices in advance, and the sacrificial soldiers were instantly annihilated by the violent energy and turned into ashes. Massive flames spread in all directions …
Before the flames could spread, a jade-green light pattern suddenly descended from the top of the Black Tower and scanned the energy flames that had exploded. In an instant, time and space trembled, and time slowed down in the entire area that had been swept by the light pattern. The fear of the crowd watching all of this from afar turned into amazement. They could clearly see the flames of the explosion that had been paused. Then, the light pattern swept over again, and the area that had exploded immediately fluctuated violently. The flames retreated, and time was rapidly retreating in this small area!
After a moment, everything returned to normal. The sacrificial soldiers who should have died in the explosion stood dumbfoundedly at the place where they had died. However, there were a few more restraints on their bodies. Hymin smiled. She returned to the table and started to deal with the documents that had been piled up like a mountain.
Hymin smiled slightly. She returned to the table and began to deal with the documents that had piled up like a mountain. She thought that another important figure — or perhaps a large family — was going to be out of luck. These death warriors who were unafraid of death would not be able to keep their secrets, as they were not going to face an interrogation on Earth. Their foresight determined their fate. These people simply did not understand that times had changed. This was no longer a problem of the Holy Land, but one that originated from the Fifth Dimension Great Alliance. It was laughable for them to still think of creating chaos and occupying a mountain to negotiate terms.
Suicide? As long as they were in the Star Palace, no one could commit suicide.
The rules here were independent, and the reversal of time was only one of the most basic applications of the Black Tower. As for the truth disclosure technique and the Penetrating Insight technique, they were not even considered basic here.
The Star Palace was not a technology developed by the human civilization. Instead, it was an aid from the Star Alliance. It was a basic civilization building that the Star Alliance had issued to all level-4 civilizations.
On the 21st floor of the Star Tower, four handsome youths stood in front of the window as they looked at the "farce" below them with different expressions.
"They don't even know who their opponent is. In this era of ascension, the foolish way of thinking from the old era will cause one's death." Angus Seer shook his head. He was Divian's younger brother. After Divian had left Earth, he had become the hope of the Seer Family. Now, he was the substitute family head and the spokesperson of the Seer Family. He controlled the authority of the family.
"It'll be fun if there's someone from the Amazon Family participating in this. The wild ambitions of those barbarians can't be restrained. It's time for them to retract their claws."
The next person to speak was Tegra Bella Dean. At the age of 26, he was the oldest among the four youths. He had a restless expression on his face, as though the words "I'm confident" were written on it. However, what was strange was that this ostentatious expression did not cause people to dislike him. Instead, it gave off a unique aura that people admired.
As for the other two youths, they were from the Musk and Torres Families. They similarly possessed different sharp and incisive auras. Furthermore, like Angus, they held the position of substitute family heads in their families. In reality, they were in control of the future direction of their respective families.
The younger generation of the leaders was the method that the various great families used to deal with the drastic changes in the world. Compared to the conservative families that were used to the old ways, making mistakes was allowed in this era of drastic changes. The only thing that was not allowed was to stop moving forward due to the fear of making mistakes.
They had no other choice. After the destruction of the Zhao and Gui Families, the former 10 Great Families had fallen apart. After the incident in the Star Alliance, the Seer, Bella Dean, Torres and Musk Families had experienced various incidents, causing their decline to be especially severe. After losing too many things, they had finally changed their strategy. The young and daring substitute family heads had become the leaders of their families. Indeed, this had stopped their terrifying decline. However, it would be extremely difficult for them to recover.
Compared to them, the Mo Family, Stuart Family, Potter Family and Vasilyevich Family were the first to react. Be it in terms of strength or influence, they still maintained their positions as the peak influences on Earth.
Together with the New World Empire, they formed the new 5 Great Influences on Earth.
Amongst them, the New World Empire was the crux that linked the various great influences together, just like the central pillar of a spinning top.
