Chapter 774 - 687: Conspiracy Strikes_4
It can be said that now inside the Fallen Tomb, the seven forces together have thirty-six people, all of whom are mighty warriors at the Heavenly Venerate Realm. In the past, such a large number of Heavenly Venerates did not exist in the universe. At most, each Divine Kingdom had only two to three. But now, for the final battle over the Fallen Tomb, all the kingdoms spared no effort in the eighty years following the Patrolling Celestial World, using any means necessary, regardless of the expense, to increase the number of Heavenly Venerates on their side as much as possible. It had become a sort of arms race to bolster the rank of Heavenly Venerates. In the end, even the weakest Divine Kingdom had no fewer than eight Heavenly Venerates, while seasoned kingdoms like the Myriad Demons Country and Genesis Divine Nation had no less than ten.
This was unimaginable in the past; the universe seemed to suddenly transform into a place where Domain Lords were as common as stray dogs and Heavenly Venerates were everywhere. However, the true mettle of these Heavenly Venerates wouldn’t be known until the actual fighting began. It’s well understood that even within the same Realm, there is a distinction in Combat Power, and within the Heavenly Venerate Realm, the gaps are even more pronounced. Back when the Nine Great Divine Kingdoms existed, nine Domain Lords together couldn’t best a single Heavenly Patroller, which just proves the point. Keep in mind that among those nine Domain Lords, six were Heavenly Venerates.
So from this day on, the Fallen Tomb is destined to witness a storm of blood and brutality. Soon, Rogue Heart Sword Hero looked somewhat gloomily at Yue Huangquan and said, "My lord, in this place my Divine Sense can only scout a range of about a kilometer, and no communication method works; this world seems to have a significant interference." Yue Huangquan nodded. In the past, many had entered the Fallen Tomb, and the limited information they brought back provided some understanding of the place. The Fallen Tomb was fraught with peril; Divine Consciousness Scouting was essentially entirely ineffective, and no form of communication could be used. Furthermore, it was difficult to absorb enough Spiritual Power here. As such, how to conserve one’s own Spiritual Power became crucially important.
"Let’s take this spot as the center and conduct our first scouting within a radius of three thousand meters. Everyone must remain one hundred percent vigilant, and remember, conserve Spiritual Power. Although we have brought sufficient Elixirs to replenish our Spiritual Power, if we suddenly encounter an enemy, they won’t give us time to recover," advised Yue Huangquan. The other three agreed, and after establishing some means of contact amongst themselves, they began their first exploration.
Within the Fallen Tomb, as Divine Consciousness Scouting barely reached a kilometer—almost the same as visual range—no one wasted any more Divine Sense scouting. If Sun Wukong were here, he would have been utterly astonished. When he rode the Island Turtle and followed the little monkey in the Blood Sea, his Divine Sense had scouted tens of thousands of meters to the seabed of the Blood Sea and even discovered an enormous Kirin. But even Yue Huangquan’s Divine Sense scouting could reach just over one thousand five hundred meters, indicating that Sun Wukong’s situation at that time was very peculiar.
While the people of the Netherworld World began their exploration, the other Divine Kingdoms also initiated similar actions. They, too, were visiting this place for the first time; even though they had heard some news about the Fallen Tomb before, seeing was believing. And just as all the forces commenced their scouting, a major crisis targeting the Netherworld World had quietly unfolded. (To be continued.
