Chapter 264: Fu Xue's Reward, the Strong Awaken

Beep beep beep~

At that moment, Fu Xue's communicator rang.

"Sister, I need to go support other fortresses."

"Okay."

"Elder Fu Yue, we're also going to support other fortresses~"

Fu Xue and the Six Realms who came to support all left.

It seems the Yao and insect tribes' this wave of offensive is extraordinarily fierce, and many space fortresses are somewhat tense.

"If the Yao tribe's Seven Realms attack a fortress defended only by Six Realms, there will probably be some trouble."

Lu Xun thought.

This time, the Yao tribe's Seven Realms chose to attack a larger fortress, which has Seven Realms stationed.

If they find they can't chew through it and then go attack a fortress garrisoned only by Six Realms, that would be troublesome.

Although humans definitely have Seven Realms everywhere providing support, using the teleportation arrays inside the fortresses, the speed of these Seven Realms' support won't be slow.

But in terms of the number of Seven Realms, the Yao tribe definitely has the advantage.

Yao Xing is stronger than Lan Xing.

This strength, among top-tier experts, the numbers probably won't lead by much.

For example, experts above Eight Realms.

Even if Yao Xing is like Astra Star, leading Lan Xing by a dozen or so nodes, but those dozen or so nodes are only a few decades of time.

For experts above Eight Realms, a gap of a few decades is actually not that big.

But for those below Eight Realms, especially below Seven Realms, these few decades are crucial.

Especially the Five and Six Realms.

As long as one is a little genius, enduring a few decades can also reach Five Realms.

Or a slightly more talented genius, a few decades is enough to break through Six Realms.

For Seven Realms, a few decades might not be enough, but these few decades can let Yao Xing produce many more Seven Realms.

Also, the higher the level of the Spirit Star, the stronger the heaven-earth intensity, and the faster the comprehension of heaven-earth progresses.

The growth above Seven Realms will also accelerate.

The ascension of the Spirit Star itself will bring great benefits to the life on the Spirit Star.

Nowadays, human cultivation on Lan Xing is much faster than in ancient times, when those who directly entered the Ancient Starry Road, the ancient cultivators, had slower speed.

If following normal speed, Five Realms at least a couple hundred years, Six and Seven Realms take longer, Eight Realms take over a thousand years.

But in fact?

Since the ascension of Lan Xing began, until now it's only a few hundred years, where would a thousand years come from?

This is the benefit brought by ascension.

All life on the Spirit Star is accelerating in growth.

Geniuses are likewise continuously being born.

The entire planet bursts forth with astonishing, vigorous vitality.

"Boom!"

The Annihilation Star Cannon in Yuheng Fortress roared again.

The shells blasted through the insect tide, heading toward Yao Xing.

The power of this cannon is somewhat terrifying; just the diameter of the shells reaches kilometers.

No wonder the Yao tribe needs to dispatch Seven Realms to deal with this.

Although other places are urgent, Elder Fu Yue has no intention of leaving.

Her duty is to hold down this place.

"Goodwill has risen again..."

Lu Xun discovered that his goodwill with Elder Fu Yue rose again, reaching 93%.

Getting closer and closer to 100%.

"Right, Fu Xue's binding reward hasn't been claimed."

Lu Xun suddenly remembered something.

After binding Fu Xue, the System gave a binding reward.

But after that, too many things happened, one after another; Lu Xun got busy and simply forgot.

Only now did he recall it.

He hurriedly claimed the reward.

【You obtained Innate Ice Marrow】

"Innate Ice Marrow? What is this..."

The reward is Innate Ice Marrow.

"It should be something useful for Fu Xue."

Lu Xun guessed.

The System's binding rewards are mostly able to solve the current problems of the binding target.

For example, Murong Wan's Innate Essence Qi, Chu Youqing's Innate Spirit Qi, and the reward after binding Ran Bing, the Soul Power Resonance Technique.

In Ran Bing's case, it's likely because the System couldn't directly resolve Gu Yao's past-life problem, so it awarded the Soul Power Resonance Technique.

As for Fu Xue, it's certainly the same.

"This reward... I'll give it to her next time."

At this moment Fu Xue had already left; we can only give it to Fu Xue next time.

Should I go to support other fortresses?

After a wave of attack was repelled, the pressure on Yuheng Fortress greatly diminished.

Lu Xun somewhat wanted to go support other fortresses.

However, having finally gotten a chance to interact with Fu Yue, he again wanted to find an opportunity to max out his favorability.

The Yao Xing are descending more and more.

Lu Xun raised his head and looked toward the sky.

By now, even if Lan Xing's experts exert all effort to stop them, the Yao Xing have already descended more than three-fourths.

Looking at it this way,

Lan Xing likely cannot stop the Yao Xing from fully descending.

There's nothing to be done; the strength gap is still a bit large.

In terms of the number of top experts, even lacking just a few can be deadly.

Buzz~

Suddenly,

Lan Xing's heavens and earth shook.

This is...

Lu Xun used the Heavenly Dao Eye to look, and his gaze turned icy.

In the southern part of the east, within a sea trench over ten kilometers deep, a vortex several kilometers in diameter appeared.

Immediately afterward, a figure flew out from that vortex.

The trembling of heaven and earth was precisely caused by that figure.

Who is this person, actually able to shake heaven and earth!

Lu Xun's heart startled.

Such an expert is probably above the Nine Realms.

While he was watching intently, suddenly that person sensed something, turned his head, and glanced lightly at Lu Xun.

Oh no!

Lu Xun thought he would replicate the tragedy of Xuanji City from before.

Fortunately, that person seemed not to mind; with a flick of his form, he instantly vanished from Lan Xing.

And after that person disappeared, a tremendous aura erupted once again on the moon.

That aura flashed by and shot into the depths of the starry sky.

Teacher Fu Yue, what just happened?

Lu Xun ended the Heavenly Dao Eye, flew up into the sky, and came to Fu Yue's side.

It should be that a slumbering expert has awakened.

Fu Yue's gaze looked toward the distance.

Slumbering expert?

Well, on Lan Xing there are some experts in slumber; most of them are powerful beings from the alien races we have taken in—for example, among the Moon Clan there is a Nine Realms expert whose lifespan is limited, so they need to slumber to ease it and simultaneously gain heaven's acknowledgment.

Fu Yue explained.

Lu Xun understood.

The alien races taken in by Lan Xing are actually not few; it's just that we rarely encounter them in daily life.

These alien races are basically humanoid, and moreover they are relatively benevolent.

The most famous among them in the east is the Moon Clan.

Many upscale restaurants feature performances by Moon Clan singers.

These alien people basically had their spirit worlds destroyed and were forced to hide in ancient route nodes, struggling to survive.

Then Lan Xing encountered them and finally took them in.

Not every ancient route node is as relatively calm as this one.

Many ancient route nodes have extraordinarily harsh natural environments, which could easily bring destruction upon the spirit world.

Even if this one, Lan Xing has not faced environmental danger, hasn't it also encountered the Yao Xing invasion?

It seems the threat brought by the Yao Xing is too great, so these alien experts with limitless lifespan have decided to join the war.

Because their strength is too great, unlike Lan Xing natives who have lived on Lan Xing since childhood, they have not yet received heaven's full acknowledgment.

Thus, their aura causes the heavens and earth to tremble.

The participation of these experts should further delay the Yao Xing's descent; hopefully we can drive them back.

Fu Yue furrowed her brows slightly, gazing at the Yao Xing that grew larger and larger in her field of view.
