Chapter 260 - - 258 Overwhelming trend crushes one_1

—————✧✧✧✧—————

Duge’s strategy was remarkably effective.

No matter how much the Alien Warriors did, it was not as significant as the founder of the Seven Star Mountain Company announcing the reopening of the market.

Especially since Wang Chong not only brought the endorsement of Yan Country.

To prevent those from chaotic times from retaliating against them, Wang Chong even brought up the names of the Spirit Power Mutual Aid Alliance Heavenly Dao Institute and the Heavenly Demon Palace.

In the past.

Those Cultivators, who used to be seen only a few times a year, were now frequently flying across the skies above the city.

This gave the people endless confidence.

Bandits who had fled to the mountains were coming down in droves, and the people who had to cease construction work due to site destruction voluntarily returned to the sites, asking to resume work…

Those who govern the many Cultivators above, and the kings of the Mortal Realm below.

At this moment, Wang Chong, in everyone’s hearts, was like the Heaven Emperor, a savior.

The catastrophe was caused by others in these chaotic times, while Wang Chong was the truly fortunate star who relieved suffering and difficulties…

…

The influence of having complete command with a single call was tremendous.

All kinds of whistleblowing letters were sent to the Supervisory Academy.

For the sake of maintaining their beautiful new lives and for an early reopening of the market to convert their shares back into money, the people spontaneously reported every suspicious individual from the chaotic times around them.

As long as someone seemed suspicious, they would report it.

The eyes of the public are sharp.

For the first time, the Alien Warriors experienced the power of a people’s war, where even the slightest anomaly could lead to exposure!

For self-preservation,

The warriors had to display their Divine Skills and started to rebel fiercely.

But once they resisted, it further confirmed their identity, and they were easily suppressed by the Cultivators of the Supervisory Academy.

Noble yet plundering.

Duge’s attributes had reached an immeasurable height; he could mass-produce experts above the Divinity Transformation Realm, and what he least lacked now were experts.

Those Alien Warriors who were complacent and developing slowly, even hiding for months, how could they possibly match these Cultivators above the Divinity Transformation Realm after awakening advanced abilities?

Back in the day,

Duge, who battled above his level—the Foundation Establishment Stage fighting against the Golden Core Realm head of the Supervisory sub-institute—if it hadn’t been for his Seventh Junior Brother working hard to lure the enemy, he would have nearly got himself killed.

What’s more for these fools, they were facing an enemy several times stronger than themselves.

The most critical point was that Duge had an extremely rich experience in fighting against them.

When sending people to sweep against them, he would also dispatch scouts, combatants, and observers. If the opponent’s skills were too formidable, then the observers would abandon the attack and then leave, joining more high-Realm people to pounce on and annihilate them…

Those in the Nascent Soul Realm could actually assassinate from a distance.

The Alien Warriors weren’t strong enough to control everyone in sight and out of sight with a single encounter.

Unless they had Duge’s influence.

But unfortunately for them, Duge wouldn’t let them grow…

…

In just a few days.

On the alien battlefield, the number of warriors was plummeting rapidly.

From over seven hundred, the count had fallen to just over four hundred.

Many alien warriors were forced to retreat into the deep forests and mountains to gasp for survival, but taking refuge there meant they were cut off from the world, with no more chance to grow…

…

After ten days, Longevity Residence and Under Mountain Academy had also fallen to Duge.

The “Warning Record,” which the alien warriors used to keep abreast of world events, had been shutdown early due to public denunciations.

The remaining alien warriors were like headless flies, bumping around without finding a direction in life, blind to any path of survival…

…

Luo Cang, Shi Chunqi, Niu Zilian, and two others once again gathered together.

This time,

The five of them looked listless, dispirited, and none had the mood to speak.

“Stop daydreaming and think of something!” Luo Cang looked around at everyone, his voice somewhat hoarse.

“Think of what? Now the entire world is in Wang Chong’s hands. What do we have to fight him with? We can’t even grind attributes anymore!” Niu Zilian kicked a rock on the hillside with frustration, “It’s all over, we might as well wait to die!”

“To deal with someone like Wang Chong, unless you strangle him in the cradle, there is no other opportunity.” Shi Chunqi sighed, “Back then, when he submitted the list of chaotic world figures to the various sects, we should have acted. At that time, he only had a Supervisory Academy that wasn’t enough to stand up to scrutiny…”

“I don’t know what we’ve been doing these days?” Qi Zongwang said with a bitter smile, “We were played like clowns by him, and we didn’t even scratch Wang Chong’s skin. We just watched him become the true number one under heaven…”

“We who became the top ten were all forced into it,” Luo Cang said. “Only Wang Chong actively became number one on the leaderboard. From the beginning, his goal was crystal clear, while we’ve been evading. With time against us…”

“Luo, what’s the use of talking about these things now? Our top priority is to survive,” said Yin Juntang. “Defeating Wang Chong is no longer possible, but we have to pass the message back. At least let the people of our planet know there is someone like Wang Chong. The next alien battlefield won’t be as helpless as we are.”

“Others might still manage to survive, but we who made the top ten most probably won’t have the chance to return alive,” Niu Zilian stated helplessly.

“Hiding in these deep mountains and forests, Wang Chong can’t do anything to us, right?” Yin Juntang argued, “The planet is so big, can Wang Chong possibly turn over every inch of it?”

“Why don’t you think about resistance? What if we win?” Luo Cang looked at everyone discontentedly, “We still have over four hundred people. If just one person awakens something that can restrain Wang Chong, it’s not necessarily impossible to turn the tables. Anything can happen on the alien battlefield.”

“Restrain my ass, until now we haven’t even figured out Wang Chong’s keywords. And besides, besides us, the remaining four hundred are fighting their own battles, getting hit as soon as they show their faces. How can we possibly find them without being able to grind attributes?”

Qi Zongwang said, “Believe it or not, once Wang Chong takes down the remaining sects, he’ll start moving against the surrounding countries next! I don’t see a sliver of hope for winning…”

“The main quest, what about that?” Luo Cang asked.

“Reboot the path to ascension. Wasn’t it mentioned in Wang Chong’s announcement?” Shi Chunqi sighed, “Luo, compared to Wang Chong, who has almost all the major sects integrated under him, do you think the remaining sects trust us more or him? Unless a real immortal descends, no one can subdue Wang Chong now.

“At this point, there’s no point in hiding the truth from you. My keyword is integrity, which I could still grind at Under Mountain Academy, but here in these mountains, there’s only waiting for death.”

“My keyword is competition,” Yin Juntang raised his hand a bit.

“Mine is management,” Niu Zilian said.

“Mine is cohesion,” Luo Cang said.

“Mine is radiance,” Qi Zongwang looked around at everyone and gave a bitter laugh, “Like Shi Chunqi, I can’t shine in these mountains, it’s basically useless. I just think it’s strange—are other people trash? Until now, none of them has pushed any of us out of the top ten.”

“At least we did some things that influenced the world, while others were chased by Wang Chong like rabbits. Getting killed if they so much as poked their heads out, it would be weird if they could surpass us,” Shi Chunqi gave a bitter laugh and opened his personal panel. Then, he suddenly froze and said, “Guys, our identities have changed. Wang Chong is going to make his move on us.”

The others quickly opened their personal panels.

Sure enough.

Their original identities as disciples of various sects had changed to abandoned disciples of the Heavenly Dao Institute, Blue Sea Palace, and so on.

“Wang Chong wants to locate us by our identities!” Niu Zilian shook his head, “Next, as soon as we do anything and gain a new identity, he will be able to pinpoint us precisely. He’s left us no way out!”

“Old Niu, how can there be no way out? As long as we do nothing from now on, it will be hard for him to find us!” Yin Juntang’s eyes lit up, “Now that our identities have already changed, we might as well wait it out until the end of the alien battlefield. If Wang Chong kills everyone else, maybe we’ll still make it into the top ten and return as heroes to our planet. If we can’t beat Wang Chong, can’t we still avoid the others?”
