Chapter 3152: The Evolution of Life

Que Yunzi endured and endured, but still couldn't hold back and spoke again:

"If, I say if, the Yuánlì laws are truly completely broken, what should we do next?"

"What should we do? Fight to the death!" He Lingchuan hadn't even spoken yet when Yuanling rolled her eyes and coldly laughed, "If the Yuánlì laws disappear or cannot be repaired, the mortal realm is doomed, and we are as good as dead. Don't think you can escape to the ends of the earth by not fighting this battle—Qianhuan True Person hides in the ever-moving Inverted Sea, yet Miao Zhantian still pried open her clamshell; Sheyin True Monarch sinks in the three-thousand-zhang deep sea, thinking himself untraceable, yet he too was dug out by the Lingxu Holy Sovereign and hacked to pieces!"

Dong Rui listened nearby, thinking inwardly, Impressive. Qin Hai Yaksha King had already seen Que Yunzi's intention to retreat, but he was still hesitating, so he deliberately spoke up to shut down his words. This yaksha mother has far more wit than her late husband.

Que Yunzi's face darkened: "Don't judge a gentleman's belly with a petty man's heart!"

"The sooner we win the ground war, the sooner Jiǔyōu can rush to Wuji to help the Red General deal with the Lingxu Holy Sovereign!" Yuanling said coldly, "Delay brings change!"

Qinglin and Tianfeng nodded: "That's the reasoning."

The brief war council ended, the immortals and generals departed, and only then did He Lingchuan's face sink.

We must advance the ground battle quickly, otherwise the Red General will struggle alone in Wuji!

The more disadvantaged she becomes, the greater the Lingxu Holy Sovereign's destruction of Wuji's laws, and the harder the ground war grows.

If this continues, it will become a dead cycle.

Therefore, He Lingchuan must make full use of every Yuánlì tide!

He turned to Hu Min and said, "Come on, let's go check on Liutiao and the other wounded."

Even in the midst of his busyness, he hadn't forgotten to visit and comfort the wounded. Besides, Liutiao and the door plank are both members of the Duandao Squad he formed when he first entered the Panlong World. Twenty-plus years of back-to-back camaraderie—He Lingchuan also felt deeply pained in his heart.

The Red General had just finished discussing with Zhao Mantu when the Lingxu Holy Sovereign's voice echoed across the field: "It seems you merely inherited Lady Lady Lady Mitian's power—what a pity, for I had high hopes for this battle."

The Red General smirked, raised his spear, and shattered another of the enemy's avatars: "Hiding your head and showing your tail—do you dare speak so arrogantly?"

"Even your temper is exactly like Lady Lady Lady Mitian's." The Lingxu Holy Sovereign laughed: "Lady Lady Lady Mitian's understanding of death is only annihilation and oblivion. I originally thought that since you could kill Chi, you might surpass him in realm. Pah, so-so. Back then, did you defeat Lady Lady Lady Mitian with the aid of the Black Dragon?"

The Red General's eyes flashed. That last sentence, the Lingxu Holy Sovereign had actually gotten right.

Zhao Mantu, the Great Shaman, suddenly said:

"I understand now—besides focusing mainly on Wuji, the Lingxu Holy Sovereign also wants to use these tricks to first probe your talent and power limits, then map out Panlongcheng's defense system, and only then will his true self appear."

This is too cautious, too careful.

The little stone figure mocked: "The God of Life naturally values life, especially his own."

During the Red General's dialogue with the Lingxu Holy Sovereign, another batch of strange beasts was born.

These strange beasts are faster and have thicker skin; they charged through the Black Soil Region, their steps much lighter than their predecessors'.

Moreover, dozens of strange beasts have already successfully broken through the Black Soil Region and leapt directly into the moat.

Don't think it's only a few dozen—Huang Shengdu's water spouts can no longer easily tear them apart.

And the few giant strange beasts left on the shore, when they hurled at Panlongcheng's walls, were no longer ordinary clods of earth, but boulders the size of small houses! The black dragon totem patrolling the city walls caught over a dozen such boulders, but was still struck in the tail by one—crack! —shattering stone and masonry. Furthermore, two boulders hit the wall surface, boom boom, blasting two deep pits.

The natural bridge beneath the Red General's feet also shuddered violently twice.

Although these two pits quickly filled themselves and returned to normal, the Red General knew this was a milestone breakthrough.

The most infuriating part? The boulders actually carried Lei Ting's power, numbing the black dragon totem, slowing its movements by half a beat.

"What the heck!" the little stone figure exclaimed in shock, "Isn't that the Red General's Lei Ting power? How, how could it be attached to the enemy's attack? They weren't even killed—they absorbed the Lei Ting power and hurled it back!" Zhao Mantu's face sank like water, "The Lingxu Holy Sovereign has already realized the difference between Panlong Secret Realm and the Grand Vast Cauldron."

Panlong Secret Realm was personally crafted by He Lingchuan and currently depends on the Grand Vast Cauldron;

while the Grand Vast Cauldron is the true divine artifact. The relationship between Panlong Secret Realm and it is one of dependence yet independence.

Most importantly, Panlong Secret Realm is based on the Great Evolution Heavenly Pearl, yet it is far less sturdy than the Grand Vast Cauldron!

The Lingxu Holy Sovereign has probably already figured this out.

Faced with the tide of strange beasts surging like mountains and seas, the Red General no longer unleashes the Lei Ting Heavenly Waterfall.

First, because this large-scale destructive divine ability, against beasts with greatly increased resistance, sees its power greatly reduced;

Second, this divine ability is quite exhausting, and she still needs to conserve strength to await the Lingxu Holy Sovereign, this great bSS.

But how to deal with this ever-growing, ever-stronger horde of strange beasts spreading across mountains and fields?

The Red General lowered her gaze to the black soil beneath her feet.

Within the domain covered by deathly power, nothing should grow. Yet now, the soil beside her feet has actually sprouted several new shoots! Though only a few scattered sprouts, the Red General knows this means the Lingxu Holy Sovereign has adapted to his intrusion and is now plotting a counterattack. The expansion of deathly power onto enemy territory is slowing down, and may even be pushed back.

The Lingxu Holy Sovereign's voice rang out again, this time without hiding his pride: "I bestow upon this brand-new divine artifact the name Ark, for it possesses the power of endless life. The Grand Vast Cauldron plus the broken Lady Lady Lady Mitian divine fragment in your hand fundamentally cannot oppose it!"

The little stone figure half-understood, but since the Red General personally participated in the final battle between the Black Dragon Holy Sovereign and Lady Lady Lady Mitian, he immediately grasped the implied meaning.

Whether the Ancient Death God or Lady Lady Lady Mitian, their understanding of death is defeating order with disorder, negative pressure overcoming positive—thus all things must ultimately vanish into silence; and the process of death, whether swift or slow, essentially consists of the draining of vitality, life force, nourishment, and other energies.

Until Chi was defeated by the Dragon God, Lady Lady Lady Mitian clung to this doctrine without wavering, and Chi's divine form was likewise built around this understanding. Therefore, the Lingxu Holy Sovereign's method of countering Lady Lady Lady Mitian's deathly power is simple: use order to suppress disorder, use vigor to counter decay, use growth to dissolve rot. In other words, as long as Chi pours sufficient violent, abundant life force into this great battle, he can gradually reverse the decay process and thus repel "death"!
