In the past, some people wanted to obtain treasures from the Heavenly Network’s territory, such as relics from the remains or other training resources.
But this was not quite right. All those who wanted to obtain treasures had probably been killed.
In recent years, Nie Ting had killed many people. Since the dawn of the magically rich era, the East’s top expert, from the Heavenly Network, stood on this land and protected it as if he was protecting a treasure. Before the magically rich era, the Heavenly Network already had an extensive information network. Thus, Nie Ting could obtain a lot of information efficiently. He could even obtain accurate information on where experts entered the borders.
Gradually, when people thought about the Heavenly Network, they were repelled from the territory he protected. Thus, the territories protected by the Heavenly Network had been very peaceful for the past year.
Suddenly, Nie Ting could no longer attack. It was like a crack had appeared in a tightly sealed door.
Smart people, such as the Bishop and the Saint, clearly knew why this had happened. A presence that people could not understand fully had appeared and had started to control the chessboard. It was as if this chess player was omniscient and omnipotent. They were able to predict every single move.
Thus, the Saint and the Bishop found an opportunity. They would follow this chess player and challenge the current authority that the Heavenly Network had over the realm of cultivation.
This was like asking a tiger for its skin. But the Bishop and the Saint also had their own ideas. They pondered… this controller was probably not very strong, or was not strong enough to challenge the Heavenly Network. If this controller suddenly wanted to turn hostile, the Saint and the Bishop would have the ability to break away from the war.
Of course, this was still very dangerous. But the temptation to suppress the Heavenly Network was too strong!
The Saint was in a plane. He started to analyze the description the controller had provided of Shen Cang Jing carefully. The only way for a Class A expert to overcome life and death, and advance to Shen Cang Jing, was to become a law themselves. From that point on, humans would be on the same level as the laws of the world.
The Saint knew them when he observed Nie Ting advancing. But he learned from the thread that this world was so weak that it was unable to resist the repulsion from the laws of the world. This made him puzzled. What had happened to the world? Why was it in its current state?
Furthermore, the thread clearly said that no matter how strong the law was, it contained original energy. It was on the road to uncover the truth. If it was shifted even slightly, it would create a chain reaction.
This had nothing to do with 1000 kilograms or 100 kilograms of force. 100 kilograms of force would be painful to a Practitioner, while 1000 kilograms of force would be even more painful.
But laws were different. Ordinary power could “destroy”, but laws could “change”. They had different meanings.
The Saint understood that Nie Ting still had the potential to destroy the earth. He had the power to chop off a piece of the table at any time. But… if everyone only wanted to know the secret of the Ancient Yi Clan in the Changbai Mountains, or what was inside the sword formation, would he stop them.
What would Nie Ting choose?
The Saint did not believe that the Heavenly Network would cause everyone, including himself, to perish because of the Changbai Mountains. Furthermore, the large organizations knew what the Heavenly Network was concerned about. Their morals were very different.
They still feared Nie Ting. Thus, it was impossible for them to dive straight in and start killing civilians. No one wanted to irritate Nie Ting. After all, Nie Ting was not a soft-hearted person. If they irritated him, they would perish together.
To be honest, it was hard to imagine how much insider information the Heavenly Network possessed, The large organizations could not send their full strength. Under these circumstances, even if they pushed the battle to the hinterlands of the Heavenly Network’s territory, they still might not win,
Even if they did not have Nie Ting, they had Chen Baili. Even if they did not have Chen Baili, they had many other Class B experts who were at their peak.
But… if they just wanted whatever was in the sword formation, did not kill civilians and left after taking their gains, what would Nie Ting choose? To destroy the world? The Saint did not believe that he would do so.
The Saint broke into a smile. He looked forward to seeing Nie Ting’s conflicted expression.
Lu Xiaoyu’s summoning of seven Lu Shu clones definitely made others despair. Even Lin Yixin, who had just advanced to Class B, wanted to give up. But he could not just surrender. Lin Yixin and the rest were no longer flowers in the greenhouse. They would give it their all, even if they were left lying down!
Suddenly, each Lu Shu clone held a spear. They started hurling the spears like cannons. They were well coordinated with one another. Even a Class B expert like Lin Yixin found it hard to resist this attack.
He tried to use his flying swords to break the formation, but it was as if the spears could see. They did a salvo and hit the flying swords.
Chen Zuan and Cheng Qiuqiao were no longer like little bees. They returned to Lu Shu’s side and rested the flag against the wall. “Brother Shu, don’t stand us up with the shares you promised us. We are so tired.”
In the past, Chen Zuan had led a very luxurious life. Thus, now that he could no longer rely on his family, he had to find a way to earn money.
When Chen Zuan looked at the students from the opposing team by the side, he was very happy. They looked as if they had just eaten a bitter melon. They were shocked by the seven Lu Shu clones, who were so well-coordinated that they were able to make a Class B expert flee in fright.
In the past, someone had said that if their attacks were well-coordinated, 7 Class C’s could kill a Class B. But could their chemistry be as good as the seven Lu Shu clones?
Chen Zuan laughed at the students. “Do you see how impressive my Brother Shu is? Even a Class C Brother Shu is invincible.”
Suddenly, a girl asked Chen Zuan softly, “I feel that Lord Lu… Teacher Lu is very aloof. Is he typically like that?”
Chen Zuan was shocked. Did she have a crush on Lu Shu? She was a girl from the opposing team! Before the battle was even over, she had fallen in love with someone from the enemy team. Could she be considered a defector?
Chen Zuan thought about it. He could suck up to Brother Shu now. “It’s hard for you guys to understand my Brother Shu. These kinds of battles aren’t even worth watching for him. If you aren’t a Class A expert, you have no right to speak to him! My Brother Shu isn’t aloof. He just doesn’t recognize weak people. Even if he does, he won’t remember them!”
Chen Zuan felt that he had truly sucked up to Lu Shu and was very pleased with himself. He smiled at Lu Shu. “Am I right, Brother Shu?”
Lu Shu was silent for two seconds. He then turned to look at Chen Zuan. “Who are you?”
“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +666!”
