Chapter 443 Testing, Yue’s Response
While sending Bedi to the Universe Sea to cooperate with his clones to devour the original universes of the dimensional universe seas, Bai Ye did not completely take any action on the Origin Continent.
Starting with the countless small forces scattered in the wilderness of the ‘Ancient Barbarian County’, he gradually began to encroach on them from the dark, testing the control of the ‘Yue Kingdom’ over this territory bit by bit, and constantly adjusting the pace and direction of expansion according to the other party’s reaction.
The planning in this regard was in the charge of the Chaos City Lord and the Original Ancestor, who were more adept at fighting and planning. Bai Ye and Luo Feng were basically two ‘thugs’ who were only responsible for taking action.
On the Origin Continent, dealing with various forces was not just about destruction, but mainly about control and infiltration.
With the military force of Bai Ye and Luo Feng as a guarantee, and not lacking in means of enslavement and control, the human beings secretly controlled a large number of forces.
Some were completely transformed into abyssal life and became part of the abyss.
Some were enslaved by the souls of Luo Feng, the Dark Demon God and others, and still retained the life form on the ‘rule of life’ side.
But no matter what means were used, any force, big or small, that had been conquered by the human race eventually became a vassal of the human race.
Using these vassal identities as a cover, Bai Ye and others expanded slowly, but very smoothly.
It was even so smooth that Bai Ye was a little surprised.
Until the human race secretly took control of the entire ‘Ancient Barbarian County’ and began to try to attack the county guards of the ‘Yue Kingdom’, this behemoth finally reacted slowly.
…
In the abyss, under a stone tablet engraved with mysterious Dao patterns, Bai Ye opened his eyes.
After practicing with the help of the ‘Jiexu Ancient God Tablet’ for a long time, Bai Ye had already discovered the upper limit of this treasure’s auxiliary practice.
At most, it can only allow people to practice one path to the level of ‘Ultimate Dao’.
If it is higher, the mysterious aura emitted by the ‘Jiexu Ancient God Tablet’ will have no auxiliary effect.
However, Bai Ye has practiced enough systems. When one path reaches the extreme and cannot make further progress, he will switch to the next path.
At least for a long time, Bai Ye does not have to worry about the problem of not being able to improve his realm.
Moreover, over the years, the Abyss Legion under Bai Ye has been killing continuously, and the large number of system equipment that has exploded has also allowed Bai Ye to continuously synthesize a large number of new high-level inheritances.
Once, a system inheritance with an upper limit of the "colorful" level was a very rare top inheritance.
Now, Bai Ye has synthesized thousands of inheritances with an upper limit of the "legendary" level.
Although there are many duplicates, such as the inheritance of the "Abyss" system, Bai Ye now has dozens of knowledge with an upper limit of the "legendary" level, such as "Abyss Master" and "Destroy Abyss".
Only "Great Abyss" and "Original Abyss" are missing to collect the ultimate inheritance of the "Abyss" system [Supreme Destruction: Endless Abyss].
This is just the "Abyss" system.
And Bai Ye has more inheritances of other systems in his hands.
During these long years, Bai Ye only studied all the knowledge of the ‘Abyss’ system to the point where he could not make any further progress.
Bai Ye did not concentrate on practicing other systems, but after practicing to a certain level, he turned to study the next one. Although the progress was high and low, it was slightly worse than the ‘Abyss’ system.
Even if the system inheritance accumulated by Bai Ye would not increase in the future, even with the assistance of the ‘Ancient God Monument of the Ruins of the World’, it would take a long time to practice all of them to the extreme.
What’s more, with such a long time, Bai Ye could have surpassed the extreme of the ‘Ancient God Monument of the Ruins of the World’ by himself and had a higher upper limit of practice.
——The upper limit of the ‘Ancient God Monument of the Ruins of the World’ is the ‘Ultimate Way’, while the upper limit of the practitioner itself depends on the ‘Qualification’.
With the superposition of system equipment, Bai Ye’s ‘Qualification’ far exceeds the requirements of the so-called ‘Ultimate Way’, but it is limited by the level and the number of soul transformations that cannot be fully realized.
As long as Bai Ye reaches the level of God King, at least the level of ‘Ultimate Dao’, it will no longer be a bottleneck for Bai Ye.
By then, the ‘Jiexu Ancient God Monument’ will be useless to Bai Ye.
…
After slightly digesting the gains from this practice, Bai Ye’s consciousness connected to the virtual world.
During Bai Ye’s closed-door practice, whether in the Abyss World or the outside world, if there is any major event, it will be transmitted to the virtual world first, waiting for Bai Ye to check it out after the practice.
Unless it is a very urgent matter, one of Bai Ye’s clones will be awakened to deal with it.
Bai Ye has confirmed that no clones were awakened during this practice, and obviously nothing major happened that he had to deal with in person.
But this does not mean that nothing happened.
After connecting to the virtual world, Bai Ye really saw messages from Luo Feng and Yuanzu.
After a careful check, Bai Ye immediately understood what happened. With a thought, a clone left the Abyss World and went to find Luo Feng and others.
The county town of ‘Guman County’
This place has been secretly controlled by the human race, but openly, it is occupied by several larger local forces in the "Guman County".
Not long ago, under the impetus of the human race, these forces that were put on the surface launched a "rebellion", occupied the county city, and expelled the county governor and army sent by the "Yue Kingdom", making a show of local forces rebelling.
Even the forces that really took action on the surface were the forces in the hands of these local forces.
The Abyss Army under Bai Ye only cooperated with Luo Feng to secretly assassinate several strong men from the "Yue Kingdom" side, and never showed up on the surface.
This is also to prevent the "Yue Kingdom" from discovering their own strengths and weaknesses in the first place.
In the name of "local rebellion", it can not only make the "Yue Kingdom" take action and send strong men, but also will not overly stimulate the nerves of the "Yue Kingdom" high-level officials and send forces that the current human race cannot resist.
And now, Luo Feng, Yuanzu and others sent a signal to Bai Ye, and it was obvious that the "Yue Kingdom" had already taken action.
In a very luxurious palace in the county city, Bai Ye's figure suddenly appeared.
After taking out the communication token and sending a message, Luo Feng, Yuan Zu and others appeared one after another and entered the hall in just a few breaths.
"You finally came out of seclusion." The Dark Demon God teased: "After you broke through the Chaos Lord last time, you sent your subordinates to act for such a long time, and you haven't shown up for thousands of reincarnation eras."
Relying on the accumulation of the Universe Sea, Bai Ye had already broken through to the Chaos Lord.
However, if you want to make a perfect breakthrough from Chaos Lord to God King, the scale and volume of the Abyss World are higher. Even thousands of reincarnation eras are still not enough.
Facing his teacher's ridicule, Bai Ye did not respond to this, but asked: "What is the situation now?"
"The domain lord of the 'Seven Realms' has set off. According to our intelligence, he will come to the 'Ancient Barbarian County' to quell the rebellion soon." Yuanzu briefly introduced: "This 'domain lord' is different from the domain lord of our original universe. It generally refers to the highest authority of a domain. Different domain lords have different upper and lower limits of strength. The lowest one can be an eternal true god, and the highest one is said to be able to reach the level of God King. As for the domain lord of the Seven Realms, he must be given the word 'Saint'. According to the common rules of the Origin Continent, he should be a Chaos Lord."
"Sainted?" Bai Ye suddenly realized.
On the Origin Continent, titles are also particular.
The lowest title is conferred by the lord according to the name of the country.
For example, the strong man of Wu State can be given the word 'Wu' after being recognized by the lord of Wu State.
The strong man of Jin State can be given the word 'Jin'.
There is no conventional standard for this kind of title. As long as the rulers of various forces agree, they can be conferred, and the value of gold is also different.
The titled strongmen of some big countries are naturally very valuable, and they also have a good deterrent power in the origin continent.
But the titled strongmen of small countries may not be recognized by the outside world outside their own country, so there is no deterrent at all.
However, in addition to this lowest level of title, there are two more levels of titles.
One is "Saint" and the other is "King". Both of them need to be recognized by the entire Origin Continent, and must have solid strength as the most basic.
Reaching the Chaos Master, the word "Saint" is automatically added.
Reaching the God King, the word "King" is automatically added.
Of course, generally, those who reach the God King have already obtained the title of "Saint", so after adding the word "King", the complete title is "Saint King".
For example, the three generations of ancestors of the Duan Donghe lineage are called "Duan Donghe-Jueyi-Saint King".
Here, ‘Duan Donghe’ refers to ‘Duan Donghe lineage’, ‘Jue Yi’ is the real name of the three generations of ancestors, and the last ‘Sheng Wang’ is a title.
The domain lord of the seven realms of Yue Kingdom has a title with the word ‘Sheng’. According to the rules of the Origin Continent, he is obviously a Chaos Lord.
This strength can be regarded as a strong man in the entire Origin Continent.
Although the Origin Continent is large and there are many strong people, the number of people who can reach the level of Chaos Lord is also limited.
“Speaking of which…” Bai Ye suddenly thought of a question, looked at Yuanzu, and asked: “After so long, have you figured out how many God Kings and Chaos Lords there are in the Origin Continent?”
The number of top combat forces in the Origin Continent has always been a question that Bai Ye is more curious about.
Among the few people, Yuanzu is mainly responsible for intelligence gathering, but after all, his strength and scope of activities are limited, so it is obviously impossible to thoroughly figure out this problem.
What Bai Ye asked was not an exact number down to the single digit, as long as there is a rough estimate.
"The exact number is unknown, as it is a top secret of all the major powers." Yuanzu shook his head and said, "However, based on what we know so far, there are more than a hundred kingdoms, sects, etc. established by God Kings among the cultivators, not counting the indigenous people. Most of them have only one God King, but a few major powers have more than one God King. Even among the super powers that have been entrenched in the Origin Continent for endless years, there are more than two-digit God Kings in the open. Add to that the existence of some hidden God Kings who are not keen on establishing forces. It is estimated that the number of God Kings in the entire Origin Continent is at least more than three hundred, and the number of Chaos Lords... must be at least ten times higher."
"Three hundred God Kings, three thousand Chaos Lords?"
This is just a rough estimate, and there may be a big difference from the actual number, but as a reference, it is still of certain value.
Bai Ye nodded slightly and asked, "What about the Yue Kingdom?"
"On the surface, only the ruler is a God King, which is similar to the former 'Jin State', belonging to a small and inferior force. As for whether there are hidden ones in secret, it is not clear."
The original ancestor thought for a while and added: "Although there is only one God King, there are many Chaos Lords. In the nine domains of Yue State, each domain lord has the title of 'Saint'. These nine Chaos Lords are definitely not all."
This is easy to understand. For a small country like Yue State, Chaos Lords can already be regarded as top-level combat power, and it is definitely impossible to send all of them out.
Although the number of Chaos Lords left in the center is unclear, there are definitely some, and there is a high probability that there are more than one.
In addition, in addition to the nine domain lords, there may be other Chaos Lords outside the center, presiding over other affairs.
At the least, there must be more than a dozen Chaos Lords.
At the most, there may be twenty or thirty.
"Only the seven domain lords are coming to Guman County to quell the rebellion this time?" Bai Ye confirmed again.
If there is only one Chaos Lord, it will be easy for Bai Ye to solve it.
I am afraid that this is not the full strength of the other party.
"On the surface, there are only seven realm masters. Whether there are more in secret is not something we can find out." The original ancestor shook his head and sighed: "It is very difficult to operate forces in the origin continent. Although we have operated for tens of thousands of reincarnation eras, it is already very difficult to control the ancient barbarian county. It is not realistic to spread the intelligence network to the outside world."
For endless years in the origin continent, there have been endless wars between large and small forces. New forces are constantly established and old forces are destroyed.
Not counting those small forces that are as numerous as cattle hair, the large local forces at the level of "county" alone have some strength and trump cards.
Even if the human race is strong and can crush them all the way, it is still very difficult to truly stabilize the control of these areas.
As for infiltration outside, the difficulty is even higher.
The most important thing is that there are not enough people who can be trusted.
The aura of the abyss masters is too obvious, and the human race has only a few "own people", so they can only rely on those soul-enslaved masters to come forward, which naturally limits their ability to expand externally.
Bai Ye also understood that this problem was not so easy to solve. After thinking for a while, he shook his head and said, "It's okay. As long as the King of Yue doesn't come in person, but only the Chaos Lord, it doesn't matter how many come."
After a pause, Bai Ye added, "It's better to say that the more people come, the better. The information that a Chaos Lord can access must be more precious." (End of this chapter)
