Chapter 1038: Bring Some Trump Cards Before Leaving

Elder Nangong smiled. “Have you decided?”
Luo Bingqing and his team nodded firmly.
Elder Nangong said, “That is a wise decision. You really need to experience some battles to humble yourselves. Even if you don’t need any cultivation resources since Lu Ze provides them, you should still gather some at the void border for the Human Race.”
Lin Kuang grinned. “During Ze’s and Lin Ling’s turn, they have conquered the territory of the Blade Demon Race and acquired countless resources for our race. Now, it is high time for us to put in some effort.”
The crowd broke out in a grin.
Xuan Yuji chimed in, “Although we can never be as good as Ze, we will still try our best.”
The others nodded.
‘What is the actual point of cultivation?’
For some, it is to extend their lifespan. But this is only an aspect of it. The other reason is to protect and lead the Human Race.
Ordinary people are more likely to do it to live longer, but prodigies cared more about providing security to the entire race.
Sometimes, prodigies had shorter lives than ordinary cultivators. After all, they would be the first to respond during interracial wars.
The more power you possess, the greater the responsibility you will shoulder.
In their current generation, they were blessed to have Lu Ze. He kick-started the golden age of the Human Race.
Even so, they were also representative figures and a part of the same generation.
‘How could they not do something?’
Thinking about the consequences, the spirit of valor dawned upon them. Their ambitions grew.
Lu Ze smiled. “Brother Lin Kuang, since you are venturing into the void s.p.a.ce, it is only right for you to bring along some trump cards just to be safe.”
Luo Bingqing and the other teams were taken aback.
‘Trump cards? What did he mean by trump cards?’
This wasn’t anything new to Elder Nangong. But, he still looked at Lu Ze with surprise.
“It seems like you guys have managed to gather some precious resources lately.”
Lu Ze curled up the corners of his lips and took out a pile of one-time divine art runes and poison b.a.l.l.s.
There were a total of a few hundred one-time divine art runes. Meanwhile, the number of poison b.a.l.l.s available piled up to form a small mountain.
Elder Nangong: “???”
The excessive supply of valuable resources caused Elder Nangong’s smile to freeze.
‘Am I getting old? My vision is getting blurry.’
He looked at the ground again.
Elder Nangong: “???”
The number of the resources didn’t change. It wasn’t a trick!
‘Oh s.h.i.+t?!’
How come there are so many?
This is a cosmic cloud state treasure!
The hairs on Elder Nangong’s skin stood on ends.
The treasures weren’t even a cosmic system state. They were real and actual cosmic cloud state treasures!
More importantly, their number was overwhelming!
Luo Bingqing and the rest gawked at the pile of resources.
Seeing how Elder Nangong’s expression s.h.i.+fted, they made some conjectures.
‘Are all of these things trump cards?’
‘There was even a shedload of them. Is this right?’
For Elder Nangong’s expression to change drastically, the value of those things shouldn’t be trivial.
‘Perhaps… are all of them actually peak cosmic system state trump cards?’
With this possibility in the forefront of their minds, everyone shuddered.
‘All of those are too powerful!’
How could Ze bring out so many of them?
But then again, he was a cosmic cloud state after all. The mountain of resources he brought out was pretty much useless to him.
Elder Nangong took a deep breath.
‘Calm down! I’m an elder! I must stay calm!’
Lu Ze smiled. “Elder Nangong, we don’t need these anymore. You can hand them to other prodigies as rewards.”
Elder Nangong took another deep breath before he nodded. “Okay.”
Lu Ze urged, “Brother Lin Kuang, if you really plan to visit the void s.p.a.ce, then take some with you.”
He continued, “The power of the poison b.a.l.l.s is approaching the peak of the cosmic cloud state. As for the divine art rune containing a sand element, it has a level-1 cosmic cloud state power.”
Lu Ze didn’t forget to add, “The one containing poison has level-2 cosmic cloud state power. However, note that they can only be used once, so make sure to bring some extra.”
Luo Bingqing and the others were Lu Ze’s friends, so he wasn’t the least bit stingy with them.
“???”
As a result, Luo Bingqing and the other groups were dumbfounded.
They didn’t know how to respond anymore.
This was completely different from what they thought.
Level-2 cosmic cloud state!
The void s.p.a.ce would explode.
Moreover, didn’t just Lu Ze say he didn’t need them anymore?
Then, his combat power actually surpa.s.sed level-2 cosmic cloud state?!
Lin Ling gave out a smile. “Brother, bring some with you. You might encounter cosmic system states in the void s.p.a.ce.”
Nangong Jing nodded. “Yes. The insectoids are rampantly invading several places recently.”
Strangely, the void s.p.a.ce they were in charge of was welcoming to the Insectoid Race. The insectoids had swarmed the place a few times already.
Elder Nangong said, “It’s better to take some precautions. Take some cards.”
He grabbed a pile of poison b.a.l.l.s and handed them to Luo Bingqing and the others. He looked at the one-time divine art runes and distributed two sand divine art runes and one poison ball divine art runes to everyone.
Luo Bingqing and the others felt it was surreal.
Their faces trembled.
This contained a cosmic cloud state power!
The Human Race actually had a few hundred of them…
Elder Nangong waved his hand in dismissal. “Alright, since you guys are planning to leave, you might as well go now.”
Luo Bingqing and the others nodded.
“Elder Nangong, Ze, Nangong… we are going then.”
They took out the s.h.i.+ps they received when they were appointed as young dukes and finally left.
After watching them, Elder Nangong appeared proud but a little worried.
He sighed.
He had sent too many prodigies off. Some came back safely while some remained outside forever.
But now, things operate differently.
Those resources represented security. With them around, no one would dare to bother the prodigies of the Human Race even if they didn’t have many cosmic cloud states.
Elder Nangong looked at Lu Ze and his girls.
‘Perhaps, their group is about to leave as well.’
Of course, their destination was not the void s.p.a.ce. They should be on their way to explore the Elf Cosmic Realm. It would surely be more dangerous than any other missions they had.
Nevertheless, Elder Nangong, who had practically witnessed Lu Ze’s growth, had confidence in the latter.
In the near future, they would surely astound the Elf Cosmic Realm with their greatness.
He then said, “You guys came at the right time. Help me excavate the alternate dimension.”
