Chapter 184 [Ancient Rift]
Demon Slayer Division Military Academy.
"It's not Lao Li, we have just returned to school, what are you trying to do!"
"It's not even bright yet, so we are called to come out and gather."
"What's going on?"
Liang Yuxin still had curlers on her head, revealing her smooth forehead, and said with an unhappy look on her face.
The rest of the people were not much better, they all looked like they had not yet woken up.
"How can you sleep at your age? Are you promising?" Li Yunxuan said with thick dark circles under his eyes and a look of hatred on his face.
"Ah~~" Qiao Jiang yawned loudly, pouted and asked, "Old Li, what exactly are you causing trouble here?"
"Hurry up and get it over with so we can go back and catch up on some sleep."
Li Yunxuan grabbed the eye mask, folded it and put it in his arms. He said with a wicked smile, "Sleep is so important, isn't it?"
"It's more important than advancing to the fourth level, right?"
"Then you go back to sleep. When Guan Shan becomes a Venerable and you are still studying how to advance to a Walker, I wonder if you can still sleep!"
Li Yunxuan knew how to stimulate his students.
Sure enough, with a few words of teasing, everyone in Class 197 woke up.
They were all freshmen from the same class, and they watched eagerly as Guan Shan began to explore the application of fifth-level powers. They couldn't even try out the fourth-level shield. If they said they weren't jealous, they would definitely be lying to themselves.
"Old Li! What did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly. Say it again!"
Qiao Xiaohui wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth, blinked her big eyes excitedly and asked.
"Cheer up, everyone!"
"Class begins!"
Li Yunxuan patted the document bag on his shoulder vigorously and said seriously.
He looks a bit like a teacher.
Seeing that a group of students were all being honest, Li Yunxuan nodded with satisfaction and said, "The Bureau of Creation has discovered the location where the [Ancient Rift] is open, and it is expected that it will stabilize in seven days."
"I have signed up for you. I have already paid for the shortfall in military merit. Remember to pay it back to me when you come back. If you get any interest, I will charge you 30%."
Qiao Jiang nervously opened the military academy APP. His military merit, which was quite abundant at first, now only has a pitiful 50 points left.
If it weren't for the fact that everyone in Class 197 still had to eat, they probably wouldn't even be able to retain this little bit of military merit.
"Old Li, if you don't grab it directly, you just can't see me having enough to eat!" Qiao Jiang said angrily.
"If you want to quit, wait until I finish talking and go to the background to do it yourself."
Li Yunxuan looked calm and indifferent, as if he was convinced of his students.
"Now, listen up."
"After [Ancient Rift] is stabilized, there will be a seven-day window. After you enter it, you can spend a day or two to familiarize yourself with the environment before choosing a suitable target to start with."
"The official will also set up a temporary advance base there. Be sure to remember your camp area to avoid running out of supplies and dying inside."
"I made a table of the resources in the ancient rift. Their appearance, efficacy, common places, danger level, and priority order of acquisition are all noted one by one."
With that said, Li Yunxuan took out a stack of pamphlets from his document bag and distributed them to everyone.
In the manual, there are not only pictures of various resources, but also their approximate distribution locations, as well as notes densely written in small words.
At first glance, it was Li Yunxuan who stayed up late to make it.
Everyone couldn't help but be moved.
When they were all sleeping, Li Yunxuan did so many things silently...
"[Lizard Dragon Blood] can enhance the efficiency of the extraordinary awakened person to absorb energy, and help the awakened person at this stage advance to a walker?" Guan Shan blurted out as he looked at the introduction in the booklet with some surprise.
"What is a 'saurus'?"
"And what does the 'King Kong Ape' mentioned in the brochure mean?"
"I've never heard of it."
Facing the students' questions, Li Yunxuan explained patiently, "The creatures that exist in the [Ancient Rift] are naturally ancient creatures."
"They are all the original demon clan, and they are very different from the demon clan you have seen now."
Everyone looked at each other, not quite understanding what the teacher meant.
"To explain all this clearly, I have to start from the beginning." Li Yunxuan cleared his throat and slowly said, "The human race and the demon race have been fighting for hundreds of years. You know this."
Everyone nodded.
“Actually, before the Demon Slayer Division was established, the human race was already competing with the demon race for space for survival.
The initial relationship between the two races was similar to the current relationship between humans and beasts.
There was no awakening ceremony at that time, and there were only a small number of innate awakened people among the human race.
The demon race still retains its primitive animal instincts, likes to live in groups, and hates alien races.
Occasionally, those who break into the territory of the human race will be easily killed by the awakened ones among the human race.
Of course, those awakened people will also go deep into the territory of the demon clan to hunt in order to increase the speed of cultivation.
The whole body of the demon clan is full of treasures, whether it is flesh, skin, or bones, they are gradually being exploited and utilized by the human race.
As the number of awakened people increased, the Demon Slayer Division came into being.
The first generation chief of the Demon Slayer Division could be described as a genius of his generation.
He single-handedly established the Demon Slaying Department, the Military Academy, and the Demon Slaying Department Research Institute, the predecessor of the Creation Bureau.
Almost single-handedly, he established the four cities of Yaoguang, Sun, Liming, and Fengdu in the territory of the Monster Clan.
And with the four cities as anchor points, several lines of defense were built.
Even the sky was built by the first chief.
I still can't figure out how strong a person must be to accomplish so many things in a short life. "
Li Yunxuan said, with a look of longing and yearning on his face.
"So, was the ancient rift also established by the first generation?" Guan Shan guessed following Li Yunxuan's words.
"There are various speculations about the existence of [ancient rift], but there is no accurate statement."
"Some people say that the first generation used the power of gods to seal all the demon clans within the four cities into the [ancient rift], which gave the human race time to establish the four cities."
"Some people also say that the first generation disappeared after establishing the 'Sky Vault' just to guard the [Ancient Rift] for the human race."
"At this time, there is no final decision."
"But what is certain is that the emergence of [ancient rifts] must be directly related to the first generation."
"[Ancient Fissure] will only appear in the territory of the demon tribe or the four cities. Sometimes it is a small crack that only low-level demon tribes can pass through. Sometimes it is a stable passage that can be entered by large troops."
"What will be opened this time is a stable channel."
Li Yunxuan paused and looked at his students seriously.
"Boys, are you ready for a big fight?"
