"In order to avoid causing panic, we told a big lie back then. We told everyone that we had killed the invading Protoss powerhouse. The truth was that the intruder was not a true member of the Protoss, but only a God's Servant. What's more, we couldn't even kill the God's Servant and the few subordinates. All we could do was seal them. "Mr. Fu's face was filled with helplessness as he spoke.
"Is the protoss really that powerful?" The first time Lin Huang heard about the protoss was from Xue Luo, but Xue Luo did not tell him much.
"We don't know much about the real protoss. All we know is that they have the blood of a True God or above in their bodies. They'll automatically elevate to Virtual God or even above Virtual God when they grow up. Due to the powerful blood inheritance in their bodies, they have the ability of a human True God even if they're on Virtual God level.
"The God's Servants are the protoss' personal guards. They usually have great potential and talent. They're at least on par with human geniuses. They're equivalent to high-level servants in the protoss. As for the subordinates, they usually have average talent and potential but a high combat level. They're in a subordinate position in the protoss, which is equivalent to low-level servants. They do all the dirty work. I heard that a normal protoss has at least two God's Servants and more than 20 subordinates. One could say that the protoss themselves are a powerful army.
"There was only one God's Servant and 12 subordinates who invaded us 800 years ago. Their master was a True God of the protoss. He had 12 God's Servants and close to 200 subordinates. The God's Servant who invaded us was ranked third from the bottom among the 12 God's Servants.
"The reason why we couldn't kill the God's Servant and the 12 subordinates was that they had a drop of the True God's blood in their bodies that their master gave them. As long as we don't destroy the True God's blood, they won't die. "
"Is there no way to destroy the True God's blood?" Lin Huang could not help but ask when he heard this.
"It's not difficult to destroy the True God's blood with the ability of a Virtual God. The problem is that their master will sense it immediately once the blood in their bodies is destroyed. At that time, that True God Realm God Race will personally lead an army here, and our world will be completely destroyed. "
Lin Huang finally understood. In reality, it was not that Mr. Fu and the rest could not kill the God's Servant and the 12 subordinates back then, but they could not.
"Over the past hundreds of years, some lunatics have formed an organization called the Saints. The True God they believe in is the master of the Divine Servant we sealed. They claimed that they were believers of the True God and wanted to cleanse the world of sin and let the True God rule the world. For the past hundreds of years, they had been researching how to destroy the blood of the True God and summon that god. I've even tried to break the seal several times, but I was stopped in time. "
"The Saints are a bunch of idiots," Lin Huang commented without hesitation.
"We basically retrieved the information about the protoss from the memories of the God's Servant and the subordinates. However, we couldn't retrieve their complete memories, so this is the only information we have." Mr. Fu waved his hand as soon as he was done speaking. "We're getting sidetracked. Let's get down to business."
"I still have three years to live, so you must grow within these three years. You must at least be on imperial-level, and you must have the ability to fight a demigod. I know it's difficult, but you must do your best to achieve this, "Mr. Fu said in all seriousness.
"In the three years that I'm still alive, there won't be many people who will attack you openly, because no one is willing to endure my crazy revenge at this time. As soon as I'm dead, they'll have nothing to worry about and they'll definitely attack you. By then, apart from my dead body, you'll be their second target. Just because you're my apprentice, no matter if you know the secret of me becoming a Virtual God or not, those who want to become Virtual Gods won't let you go. "
Lin Huang knew very well that as soon as Mr. Fu died, he would become Tang Sanzang's second piece of meat. "I'll try my best to get to imperial-level within these few years. I won't slack off."
"Actually, becoming a Virtual God isn't really a secret. Before the new era, the cultivation system was different from now. Back then, we didn't rely on killing monsters to elevate our combat strength. Instead, we relied on our own cultivation. Our combat strength would naturally elevate when we reached that level. However, the opening of the Virtual Eye more than 800 years ago changed the rules of the world. Humans can rely on killing monsters to elevate rapidly. Since there are no more virtual god-level monsters in this world, nobody can elevate to Virtual God.
"The way we cultivated back then had a high threshold. One of them depended on one's talent while the other relied on accumulation over a long period of time. You've cultivated Army Attack Tactics before, so you should know that it's very difficult to cultivate it to level-9. The way we cultivated back then was to cultivate Army Attack Tactics to level-10 and then cultivate the Twisted Fate Scripture. Only then would we be considered to have embarked on the path of cultivation. There were not many powerhouses in the old era. One reason was that the cultivation threshold was too high. Another reason was that there were too few methods like the Twisted Fate Scripture left. There were only a few of them. "
"Don't the demigods know that your cultivation method is different?" Lin Huang could not help but ask.
"They basically know." Mr. Fu forced a smile and shook his head. "But so what? They thought that even if the cultivation method is different, they might be able to find another way to elevate from my dead body. Moreover, there were a few demigod old monsters who were cultivators like me. They wanted my dead body even more. "
"Is there really no way to break through to Virtual God with our cultivation method?" Lin Huang could not help but worry that he would be stuck on demigod-level in the future.
"There are two ways. One is to change the cultivation method of the old era by cultivating Army Attack Tactics to level-10 and then cultivate the Twisted Fate Scripture to create a second cultivation system in your body. The other way is to break into the virtual zone and kill virtual god-level monsters. "
"In reality, all of the demigods know about these two methods. However, they don't have enough talent for the first method. Most of them can't cultivate Army Attack Tactics to level-8. Only a few of them can cultivate to level-9. However, very few people would choose the second option. After all, none of those who had entered the Void domain had ever returned, not a single one. Even the rumor of virtual god-level monsters in the virtual zone has never been proven. "
"Since these two methods are blocked, they can only look for other ways to elevate." Mr. Fu knew very well why the demigods targeted him. "I announced Army Attack Tactics as soon as I found out about the drawbacks of your cultivation system. I hope that those who have enough talent can cultivate it to level-10 and walk the path of the Twisted Fate Scripture to become Virtual Gods or even True Gods. This is to prevent this world from being invaded again in the future and nobody can carry the flag. "
"Apart from your personality, the reason why I chose you to be my apprentice was that you've cultivated Army Attack Tactics well. That proves that you have amazing talent and potential." Mr. Fu finally revealed the reason why he wanted Lin Huang to be his apprentice. "You've been lagging behind in Army Attack Tactics for the past two years. Cultivate it when you're free. If you can cultivate it to level-10, the Twisted Fate Scripture will be triggered automatically. By then, as long as you have enough time and resources, it's possible for you to elevate to virtual god-level or even true god-level. "
"I'll keep that in mind." Lin Huang nodded.
"Speaking of Army Attack Tactics, I have to mention your senior brother. You're the second disciple I've taken. I had another disciple in the Old Era called Mo Kui, and he only used three years to cultivate the Combatant Formula to the tenth level. His natural talent is truly monstrous. Even I, who always thought of myself as a genius, can't compare to him. It took me more than five years to cultivate Army Attack Tactics to level-10. "Mr. Fu looked at the calm sea as if he was reminiscing about something.
"Senior Brother Mo Kui …"
"He became a Virtual God in less than 200 years and his ability was on par with mine." Mr. Fu paused. "In the battle 800 years ago, he blocked the God's Servant's fatal attack for me and died on the spot. That silly kid. If he were still alive, he would've become a True God by now."
Both of them fell into a long silence after the conversation.
About three to four minutes later, Mr. Fu's fishing rod sank. He calmed himself down. "Hehe, there's a fish on the hook. Our lunch and dinner are settled!"
