Chapter 418

Its body was indestructible, but it was completely useless.

Because the Soul Chariot was fundamentally 'illusory'.

It attacked the soul directly!

And when it came to the soul level, how could a mere spirit body be a match for someone who had cultivated the third layer of the Yan Shen Jue?

"Boom—"

That Blue-Gold Spirit Body kept retreating.

It clutched its head in pain.

"Am I being reasonable enough?"

Zhao Xing looked down at a figure at the edge of the city below.

"Do you need me to explain it more clearly?"

The three geniuses from the Maya Star System looked at each other and immediately gave up their position for clearing the stage.

There was no help for it; they admitted they couldn't compare to Kunte.

Even if the three of them joined forces, they only added up to 2 Emperor Grade life forms.

That wasn't enough for the Zhao Demon King to slaughter.

"Let's go; we'll come back after this Zhao Demon King fails."

"This is called a tactical withdrawal, not that we're afraid of him."

"Right, there's no need to clash head-on with him."

The three geniuses soon 'convinced themselves'.

They put away their world projections and retreated far away.

As for the other few figures watching, they just watched.

They never had a chance to clear the stage in the first place; it had been monopolized by these three from the Maya Star System, and they had just been waiting to see if they would have a chance.

Now there were only 25 cities left, but there were 200 geniuses who had reached the second stage.

Basically, in every city, there were people who could only watch.

Watching to see if they could try their luck after those geniuses failed to clear the stage and were injured or recuperating.

Zhao Xing didn't expel them either.

If they were willing to wait, then let them wait.

"Master, I am very familiar with this stage."

"When Yuan originally arranged plant life forms as rewards, he always arranged them in several consecutive stages."

"Besides me and the Blood Rainbow Ginseng, City No. 19 is also a plant life form."

The Bone Tree volunteered.

"Good."

Zhao Xing stopped at the city gate and then unfolded his world projection.

Boom—

A million King Grade life forms broke through the soil.

Forming a fan-shaped territory.

Within dozens of kilometers, it was full of King Grade plant troops.

At the same time, Emperor Grade life forms like the Star-Eater and the Bi-Luo were also released.

"Hiss, there really are a million King Grade troops."

"Damn, how did this Zhao Demon King cultivate them!"

"How can his territory withstand it?"

"Did he exchange for an S-grade Territory Energy Tower? Otherwise, just the energy consumption of these King Grade life forms would be a huge expense."

The lords who saw this scene were all stunned.

They hadn't witnessed the battle at the Great Rift Valley before, so they had only heard rumors.

Now that they saw it with their own eyes, they couldn't help but retreat further away.

However, they were also extremely puzzled; it wasn't easy to support so many troops.

After becoming a Star-rank lord, although the internal world would absorb energy from the Great Thousand World, the mist at the edge of the world could be used as nutrients.

But one couldn't rely entirely on absorption.

Hearing the discussions of those people, Zhao Xing also turned his attention to the Energy Tower in his internal world.

"After going out this time, the primary task is to replace the Energy Tower."

"An SS-grade Territory Energy Tower alone can no longer meet the demand."

An SS-grade Territory Energy Tower was itself an Emperor Grade treasure.

But the Bone Tree alone was at the peak Emperor stage.

If he didn't require evolution in the short term, then that was fine.

After all, for Emperor Grade troops, especially plant troops, not eating or drinking for thousands of years was no big deal.

But if they were to engage in high-intensity combat and evolution,

then the SS-grade Territory Energy Tower was already nearing its limit.

The last time the Time God Tree evolved, the signs had already begun to appear.

It had swallowed the life force of a million extraordinary life forms.

"The internal world of a Star-rank lord should also be expanded."

Zhao Xing sat on the chariot, closing his eyes to explore the primordial origin in his mind.

The Primordial Realm had originally bestowed upon him a wisp of world origin.

It was constantly influencing his cultivation progress.

However, this was the first time Zhao Xing had actively absorbed it.

After all, if he absorbed it all, this 'emergency teleportation' function would disappear.

"Normally, it wouldn't disappear until I reach the Silver Moon stage," Zhao Xing wasn't worried about absorbing it all at once.

"Hum—"

A feeling as profound as when he had just awakened his talent appeared.

Chaos energy, as thin as a strand of hair, was drawn into his internal world.

Yet, this inconspicuous strand of hair caused his internal world to boil like boiling water.

Half an hour later.

The internal world stopped expanding.

And Zhao Xing's realm also leaped from the mid-Star stage, crossed the late-Star stage, and reached the peak-Star stage!

"I can't absorb any more; if I absorb more, I'll have to break through to the Silver Moon stage."

The entrance and exit channels of the folded space only allowed those below the Silver Moon stage to pass.

Previously, a Star-rank lord had tried to break through here, and despite the warning from Yuan's power of rules, he had insisted on breaking through.

As a result, he couldn't get out.

Rumor had it that the unlucky fellow would likely have to die of old age in the folded space.

However, Duan Ye's clone didn't count as violating Yuan's rules.

"Peak-Star stage, the rules of the internal world are like stars densely packed."

"I can temporarily alleviate the pressure on energy demand."

"The time acceleration in the internal world, except for a few necessary areas, has completely returned to the normal flow rate."

"The maximum 2000-fold time acceleration is only provided to the Bone Tree."

The Bone Tree required ten thousand years to reach maturity.

Currently, it was still nearly three thousand years short.

Even with 2000-fold acceleration, it would take a year and a half in the real world.

And that was only to reach the conditions for maturity; at that time, it would still need energy substances to swallow.

"Boom—"

Just as Zhao Xing was thinking,

the entire city suddenly began to shake.
