In the six months since the earth began to move, in order to prevent the new coordinates from being discovered by the demons, the Tree Shade City took the lead to start the "Abyss Sewing" operation.
Nowadays, the Crack of the Abyss was no longer a threat to humans. Most of the demonic beasts that emerged from it became materials and supplies for hunters to gain experience.
The larger shelters and base cities had more or less nurtured one or two Abyssal Chasms and turned them into their own resource lands.
The Tree Shade City's desire to close all the Cracks of the Abyss naturally touched the interests of many people.
But Tree Shade City took the lead, and the other eight Holy Lands had no objections. Many large shelters and base cities did not dare to refute.
Central Asia, Flame Valley Base City.
This base city was quite famous in the nearby area. Therefore, the leaders of the base city had received the mission to cooperate with Operation Abyssal Sewing.
In the name of a mercenary, he was actually leading the way.
The Flame Valley Base City was an overlord in the surrounding area. Its comprehensive strength was second only to that of the Holy Land. Naturally, the Flame Valley Base City had the geographical coordinates of all the Cracks of the Deep in the surrounding area.
They had "reared" three Abyssal Cracks themselves.
"This time, we need to receive two teams from the Tree Shade and Ten Thousand Buddha Valley."
The mayor of the base city stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his expression hidden.
"Mayor, are we just going to hand over the Abyssal Chasm? Those were all resources! You said it was to prevent the invasion of the alien races. Didn't we humans defeat those alien races long ago? What kind of threat is there? "
The higher-ups were furious.
In their eyes, the alien race was just an excuse, and the Abyssal Chasm was a real benefit.
Even if the Abyssal Cracks weren't "farmed" by them, they still provided them with a lot of materials. If they were all gone …
"Huh? Don't tell me you dare to refuse? "
"I …" The senior couldn't say it. It's okay to complain about two games, but to refuse in front of the Tree Shade City, how could he have the guts?
The mayor said, "I'll leave this matter to you. Entertain the experts of Tree Shade City and Ten Thousand Buddha Valley. Tell them the location of the Crack of the Abyss truthfully, but …"
He paused. "Flame Valley has three cracks of the abyss, but only two of them are public."
The other Abyssal Chasm had appeared not long ago, and it was located in an inaccessible hill. There were not many people who knew about it. The troops stationed there were the mayor's direct subordinates, and they were completely trustworthy.
So that was how it was!
Not only did he not offend the Tree Shade, but he also protected some of his own interests.
The higher-ups' eyes lit up. No wonder he was the mayor and they were just a subordinate.
"I understand. I'll get it done."
Within two days, the teams from Ten Thousand Buddha Valley and Tree Shade City arrived one after another.
The members of the Myriad Buddha Valley were not all monks. In order to keep up with the times and maintain their status as a holy land, there were also many experts of various types. However, the leader of the group was a Transcendent. He had shaved his head and wore a shiny golden kasaya. The kasaya was obviously a divine weapon.
The higher-ups of the Flame Valley who came to greet them were startled.
The eight people from the Myriad Buddha Valley were all at the transcendent level, and he had already seen four or five divine weapons.
They were rich and overbearing, and experts came forth in large numbers!
Was this the Holy Land?
The Flame Valley Base City was second to none in the Holy Land, but it was still a far cry from the Holy Land.
The higher-ups of the Flame Valley were Transcendents themselves, and they had also pulled in two other Transcendents to make up the numbers. Other than them, there were only a few Peak Awakening Order Transcendents.
There were a lot of people and the scene was huge, but their foundation was incomparable.
"Master, we have already prepared a banquet."
"No, closing the Crack of the Abyss is urgent, and the people of Tree Shade City are already here."
The monk raised his head.
The higher-ups of the Flame Valley also looked over. An airship pierced through the clouds, revealing a ferocious cannon muzzle.
The wind whistled, and the airship landed a few kilometers away from the Flame Valley Base City, attracting many survivors in the base city to stop and watch.
Although the Tree Shade City's airship passenger terminal had been set up in the Flame Valley Base City as early as three years ago, and there would be one or two airships docking here every few days, the one in front of them was still too … domineering.
It was like a shark breaking through the water's surface, revealing its loftiness. Even a transcendent bird could be easily blasted into pieces.
The higher-ups of the Flame Valley were envious.
The teams from Tree Shade City and Ten Thousand Buddha Valley had no intention of resting in the Flame Valley Base City. The eight people from the Myriad Buddha Valley, plus the guide team from the Flame Valley Base City, boarded the airship.
The huge airship flew at a low altitude. Standing on the deck, one could clearly overlook the magnificent mountains and rivers.
"That's one of the defensive areas of our Flame Valley Base City." The higher-ups of the Flame Valley said. In order to show that he didn't hide anything, he chose the Crack of the Abyss in the Flame Valley Base City as their first stop.
The troops in the defensive area had already been notified. Some people were unwilling, but they still gave way. Several transcendents from the Ten Thousand Buddha Valley and Tree Shade City came to the edge of the crack.
Just as the demonic beasts were about to explode, the demonic beasts from the Crack of the Abyss rushed out one after another.
The Master of the Ten Thousand Buddha Valley turned his hand and pressed down.
Boom!
A thin layer of golden light enveloped the Crack of the Abyss, and all the demonic beasts were turned into powder.
The Master looked at the Tree Shade team.
The hunters of the Flame Valley were very curious about how to close the Crack of the Abyss. Now it seemed that the answer lay in the hands of the Tree Shade's transcendents.
Only the Tree Shade City had the ability to close the Crack of the Abyss.
The leader of the Tree Shade team, named Zhou Shiniu, was the disciple of Peng Bo, a commander of the Tree Shade Expeditionary Legion.
He was also one of the top masters in earth spell attainments in the Tree Shade City. He once used a gravity spell to crush a transcendent bird into minced meat. He was already a slightly famous master. The higher-ups of the Flame Valley had inquired about him.
He continued to observe the situation calmly.
Zhou Shiniu took two steps forward and solemnly took out an emerald green branch about the length of an arm from his storage ring.
He took a deep breath and threw the emerald green branch up while continuously injecting source power into it.
The branch emitted a faint halo, and a circle of invisible, imperceptible power gradually spread out.
The higher-ups of the Flame Valley waited for a while, secretly rejoicing that the Crack of the Abyss had failed. Suddenly, they heard a rumbling sound, and the ground beneath their feet trembled. In front of them, a 200-meter long crack slowly closed.
In just a few minutes, the entire Crack of the Abyss disappeared.
If it weren't for the obvious difference between the uneven ground in front of them and the surroundings, no one would have thought that a few minutes ago, there was a Crack of the Abyss that was constantly swallowing demonic beasts.
The emerald green branch slowly fell. Zhou Shiniu caught it with both hands and put it back into the storage ring.
The higher-ups of the Flame Valley stared at the branch with burning eyes. After a while, they forced themselves to look away.
"Let's go to the next place." Zhou Shiniu didn't seem to have consumed much energy. His face was not red, and he was not out of breath.
Was it that easy to close the Crack of the Abyss?
The transcendents of the Thousand Buddha Valley had obviously seen it before. Their faces were calm. The hunters of the Flame Valley couldn't help but whisper.
Although the voice was soft, the transcendents could still hear it.
The higher-ups of the Flame Valley looked unhappy. They didn't even say any polite words and left with the people of the Thousand Buddha Valley and Tree Shade City. If they stayed any longer, the Flame Valley Base City would lose face!
Closing the Crack of the Abyss was easier than the higher-ups of the Flame Valley thought.
They spent most of their time on the road for three days in a row. But staying in the comfortable cabin of the airship made them feel that going out on a mission could be so relaxing.
Closing the Crack of the Abyss wasn't difficult. The transcendents of the Thousand Buddha Valley and Tree Shade City only occasionally took action to deal with the transcendent or disaster-level demonic beasts.
In three days, as many as 169 large and small Cracks of the Abyss were closed.
This was only the area around the Flame Valley Base City. The area was equivalent to the expanded Tiannan Province. It could be seen that there were a lot of Cracks of the Abyss on Earth.
But the demonic beasts didn't become a disaster.
With the complete disappearance of the Cracks of the Abyss, the number of demonic beasts would be greatly reduced in a few months. A few years later, demonic beasts would become an endangered species.
"Commander Zhou, Master Hui An, now that the Abyss Sewing Operation has been successfully completed, you haven't had much rest these days. Why don't you rest in our base city for a few days before making further plans?"
Master Hui An nodded slightly and didn't refuse.
He didn't care about enjoying himself, but he had to consider the rest of the team.
Zhou Shiniu didn't answer. He just smiled and looked into the distance. After a while, he said, "Have we really closed all the Cracks of the Abyss?"
He turned his head and looked at the higher-ups of the Flame Valley.
The higher-ups of the Flame Valley remained calm, "All the Cracks of the Abyss on the map have been closed. However, there are some dangerous places that we haven't explored yet. There might be cracks of the Abyss in those places. Why don't we explore those dangerous places?"
"No, it's not a dangerous place. It's just an ordinary area. And it's not far from your Flame Valley Base City. About eight to ten kilometers away."
"Well, southeast." Zhou Shiniu added.
The higher-ups of the Flame Valley broke out in a cold sweat.
How did he know? How did he know?!
Master Hui An no longer looked at the higher-ups of the Flame Valley with kindness, "Master, closing the Cracks of the Abyss is a matter of great importance to all of mankind. The existence of any Crack of the Abyss may lead to another alien invasion on Earth. I hope you won't make a mistake."
"I …"
The higher-ups of the Flame Valley hesitated.
Zhou Shiniu had already ordered the airship to fly to the last Crack of the Abyss.
In fact, before they set off, each team had received a map of the Crack of the Abyss in the area they were responsible for. However, it wasn't very detailed. It was best to have a local guide. If not, they could spend some time looking for it.
Seeing the airship gradually approaching the location of the Crack of the Abyss, the higher-ups of the Flame Valley knew they couldn't hide it anymore.
In the end, the mission of Zhou Shiniu's team was truly completed when the 300-meter-long Crack of the Abyss closed.
After such an incident, whether it was the people of the Thousand Buddha Valley or the Tree Shade City, they no longer had the intention to visit the Flame Valley Base City. After saying goodbye, they returned to their respective forces.
Teams and airships were dispatched one after another. Whether it was the local overlord forces or the other eight Holy Lands, they all had a new understanding of Tree Shade City.
Tree Shade not only had the invincible City Lord Tang and several well-known powerhouses, but the backbone of Tree Shade City was also particularly powerful!
During the "Abyssal Sewing" operation alone, some people had calculated that the Tree Shade had dispatched more than 3,000 Transcendents!
More than 3,000 Transcendents! It wasn't even the full strength of Tree Shade City. The major forces were stunned.
Thanks to the dispatch of so many Transcendents warriors, whether it was the exotic beasts or the local forces that obstructed the operation, they could easily suppress them. Even if there were overlord forces that openly resisted and pulled out more than ten Transcendents, Tree Shade City often only needed two or three Transcendents to easily suppress them.
They traveled fast, suppressed fast, and closed the Crack of the Abyss even faster.
Shortly after the Origin Astral Realm got rid of those Saints and began to accelerate, all the Cracks of the Abyss on the entire earth were cleared, including some hidden and undiscovered Cracks of the Abyss. With the World Tree completely controlling the earth, they had nowhere to hide.
The Crack of the Abyss was equivalent to a space channel that was already connected to the Origin Star. If it wasn't completely uprooted, the demons could still know the earth's coordinates through these cracks.
Naturally, Tree Shade City had to be tough.
The "Abyssal Sewing" operation lasted about a month, and the Origin Star moved for half a year.
By the time the Origin Astral Realm completely settled in the remote star field, the demonic beasts on earth had almost been hunted.
Many adventurers and mercenaries had to switch from hunting adventurers to hunting exotic beasts.
But the exotic beasts were smarter than the demonic beasts. They knew how to hide, and their numbers were small. The difficulty of hunting them was countless times higher. Many adventurer teams' income plummeted.
Although those who were good at wood spells could help with farming, those who were good at earth spells could work as construction workers, and those who were good at fire spells could learn to forge. In addition, there were many professions such as rune engineer, pharmacist, and many others that could create value.
However, changing professions wasn't easy.
This was especially true for many hunters who had been used to fighting and hunting.
They couldn't calm down and try other jobs.
The demons were almost extinct, and the number of exotic beasts was not large. If they continued to hunt, many exotic beasts would become endangered and protected animals.
For many forces on earth, the contradiction had changed from an external threat to a contradiction between the increasing material and cultural needs and the decreasing prey.
Chen Haiping was so worried about this that his hairline had moved several centimeters. He had reported it to him several times.
"Before, I've been busy moving the planet. Now it's time to deal with the lack of prey. Otherwise, Old Chen will have to go 'Hair Growth' again."
Speaking of hair growth, it was originally a small adventurer group that could no longer maintain itself. They started a hair growth business and improved a certain wood-type growth spell that was specifically used on people's scalps to achieve the effect of promoting hair growth.
He even applied for a patent for this magical technique and named it the 'Hair Growth Technique' or 'Hair Growth Technique'.
It was one of the classic cases of successful adventurer group transformation. But most of them failed.
"I remember when I used the World Tree to control the world, I saw several unborn continents in the Origin Astral Realm. There were countless exotic beasts, ignorant and bloody indigenous tribes on those continents. There were also a lot of resources and treasures. It's the 'new map' that adventurers need."
"Most of the soldiers under my command have to carry out expeditionary missions. I can't transfer too many strong people. It's just the right time to hand over the task of developing new continents to the independent hunters. It's a win-win situation!"
