Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 721: Chapter 17 Five Years, Discussing Achievements and Rewarding_2

And when the strong ones from Datong heard these words, they all burst into laughter.

“Haha, to dare bargain with us like this, that takes courage, but—”

“We came here with only two choices for you: one is to submit directly, accept Datong’s command, and follow all rules as set by Datong. Should you violate any, even if you are at the Seventh Realm, you shall still die; the second is to be subdued by us, and then choose the first!”

Although Datong did not want to create excessive slaughter, they never considered compromising.

In seven worlds, there was only one choice: submission.

The Fifth Realm representative sent from the Cultivator World tensed up instantly.

He knew, negotiations had fallen through!

The powerful beings from an unknown world clearly had no intention to talk.

Even as a Fifth Realm cultivator, he was extremely nervous, afraid that he would be killed.

“Honorable sirs, I do not have the authority to decide; may I go back to report…?”

“You may!” The Seventh Realm of Datong readily agreed.

Once the Fifth Realm cultivator of the Cultivator World left, they continued their discussion.

The Seventh Realm Commander of everyone was Mo Yang, his gaze profound:

“Prepare for war, they will not submit directly.”

The other Seventh Realms also showed agreement.

“Greed truly blinds,” they remarked.

They knew the Seventh Realm cultivators of the Cultivator World, since they dared to put forth such conditions, were most likely no longer seeing clearly.

“Perhaps they are still thinking of fighting us then negotiating terms… However, the moment they made that choice, their fate was already decided.”

“Isn’t this exactly what we want?”

Everyone present laughed.

Those who chose to come to the Cultivator World were all extremely eager for military achievements. If they couldn’t fight, that would be the real trouble.

They did not dare initiate, but if the other side made a move, they wouldn’t be to blame!

Indeed, as Mo Yang suspected.

The Seventh Realm cultivators of the Cultivator World became furious upon hearing the news.

“To hold us in such contempt, then let’s have a battle with them. After winning, perhaps we can obtain even more.”

Greed is the most blinding of all.

Ultimately, of the seven worlds, two surrendered, deciding to submit directly.

And of the remaining five, aside from the Cultivator World, none had a prophet.

In the end, the Source Star had to face down just five worlds at once.

The war officially began.

Since they came with the intention of training their troops, Datong’s advance was slow and steady.

In the first year, Year 105 of the New Era, the Double-layered World was defeated.

Datong occupied it and violently overthrew the Double-layered World’s system.

People from both the upper and lower layers were given equal treatment.

As for the nobility of the upper layer, almost all were killed. Even those who were not, were reduced to commoners, their wealth confiscated.

The wealth of the upper layer of this world was mostly extorted, squeezed from blood and tears, naturally, it could not be left behind.

At first, even the ordinary citizens of the upper layer were unwilling to integrate with the lower layer.

Several uprisings occurred!

The solution of the Datong government was simple; enforce punishment depending on the circumstances.

The most severe punishment was death!

Before long, the world settled down.

In the Cultivation World’s nations, as long as the power was sufficient, any trouble could be resolved without any concerns.

Then another two years passed, Year 107 of the New Era.

Two more worlds submitted.

Datong now controlled ten worlds.

By the end of Year 109 of the New Era, the war in the Cultivator World also drew to a close.

To say it was the end, actually, it was because the commander, Mo Yang, judged that the training was sufficient.

He directly took his forces to find the five Seventh Realm cultivators of the Cultivator World.

They were quite capable, but in front of the Source Star, they were almost powerless and were defeated without much resistance.

“Spare us, we will submit, we’ll do anything!”

Three of the five Seventh Realm cultivators were immediately killed, leaving only two clinging to life.

They were terrified within.

If they had known this might, they would never have rebelled.

But it was too late!

Mo Yang paid no heed to their pleas for mercy and killed the last two.

After almost five years of warfare, the conflict came to a thorough end.

Next, it was time to receive the spoils of war.

At this time, Shi Ziqin was reviewing his military achievements.

Five years had passed, and Wang Sheng had completed countless dangerous missions, slaying over a dozen Sixth Realm cultivators in the Cultivator World, his military achievements immense.

“Enough…”

Besides him, countless others also awaited the distribution of rewards for their contributions.

At this time, Wang Sheng also awoke from his cultivation.

Although it had just ended, he had already learned the final results through his believers.

“The war is over, taking five years,” he thought, “it seems to have been chosen as a trial.”

Wang Sheng knew that with the strength of the Source Star, conquering those seven worlds would definitely not have taken five years.

However, this choice was not without its merits.

At least, the worlds that had experienced war were very clear that their world had been conquered by an even more powerful world.

Dealing with these worlds would be much easier going forward.

“Since it’s over, it looks like it’s my turn to take action!”

Naturally, the end of the war called for the distribution of rewards.

“I wonder how many people will choose to be resurrected this time…”

In five years, his level of cultivation had greatly progressed.

“Refining God and Returning to Void. Immortal Embryo: 75%”

The progress of the first stage of Refining God and Returning to Void had reached over seventy percent.

He was extremely close to the next stage, with the Immortal Embryo nearing the end of its gestation.

Soon, his Primordial Spirit would undergo a complete transformation!

Next were various martial and Divine Skills, as well as knowledge-based abilities.

With his martial Divine Skills, the God-slaying Sword had broken through limits four times, its power significantly enhanced.

Others had also improved to varying degrees.

As for the knowledge-based abilities, unable to be improved alongside the Inner Core Skill, Wang Sheng naturally focused his energy on mastering “Heaven and Earth” and “Time.”

Both areas of knowledge were immensely beneficial to him.

“Time: Time Limit Breaking +2 (20%)”

“Heaven and Earth: Time Limit Breaking +6 (68%)”

Breaking the limits of time twice had led to a deeper understanding of time, with clear results.

The cost of Time Retrospection had decreased.

Retrospection to save lives now consumed less lifespan, and he could retrospect more frequently to heal his injuries.

Time Acceleration had also grown stronger; perhaps in the future, he could create an Acceleration Secret Realm for others to use.

Heaven and Earth, however, seemed to have not broken through any limits.

However, with each point of progress in a knowledge-based skill, he acquired a wealth of additional knowledge.

Surpassing half of the sixth breakthrough, the benefits were significant.

“It seems I can already vaguely sense the location of interdimensional channels…”

Previously, even he could only discover interdimensional channels with the help of Yu Kong.

If he could do this on his own, it would bring no small change.

“But for now, there’s no need, and I can’t manifest it…”

“Regardless, with twelve worlds in hand, even if I utilized them until the next realm, it would still be enough. Let’s go fulfill my promises first!”

With a flash, he went straight to the camp.

The camp had been specifically constructed for these cross-world wars.

At this time, various forces and Loose Cultivators walked through the camp, exchanging for the spoils of war they desired.

Only eleven or twelve beings stood before Huangtian.

They had chosen to use their military achievements to exchange for resurrection.

“I have already notified the True Saint, and the True Saint has responded. He should arrive shortly.”

Those present inwardly heaved a sigh of relief.

They knew the True Saint would not go back on his word.

But they did not want to wait another day!

Everyone they wished to resurrect was of profound importance to them.

Huangtian could understand and simply waited with them.

He also had something to teach the master.

Wang Sheng arrived swiftly, appearing before Huangtian.

All present were powerhouses and naturally sensed him immediately.

“True Saint!”

Wang Sheng nodded, aware of the urgency in their hearts.

“Huangtian, are these the individuals who have the need for resurrection?”

Huangtian honestly replied, “Master, there are a total of twenty-eight individuals who have reached the necessary military contribution for resurrection. Five have reserved this opportunity for themselves, twelve have used it to resurrect others, and the remaining are those who perished in the war and are eligible for resurrection according to the rules!”

Wang Sheng nodded again, looked at those present, and said, “Then let’s start with you. State whom you wish to resurrect…”

(A few days at four thousand, transitioning a bit, the timeline will be extended once more…)
