Chapter 806: I’ll Pacify the World Again
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Over the years, Lu Xuan’s father made less progress than Yun Ling’er and Liu Wanrong. He had only managed to reach the fifth tier of the Divine Transformation Realm even after Lu Xuan left behind a variety of manuals and cultivation resources.
Of course, those improvements meant nothing compared to the progress that Yun Ling’er and Liu Wanrong made.
His father was regarded as one of the fastest-improving cultivators amongst the other cultivators on Earth. It was already quite a difficult task to achieve.
Although Lu Tiancheng did not fight people head-on, he had been forced into several b.l.o.o.d.y battles over the years.
Even Lu Tiancheng had to be mobilized frequently in this turbulent era to battle. He resisted the tidal a.s.sault of monsters and had been in many gruesome battles.
Naturally, he would’ve improved much quicker than everyone else. Moreover, he was cultivating a top-notch technique. It was natural for his cultivation to be at that level.
Lu Tiancheng understood that he could not help his wife and son with his strength and might even hold them back. This also stoked his pride as a man.
He trained bitterly in secret and did not give up even for a moment.
Lu Xuan and Yun Ling’er were the only ones left in the room after Lu Xuan’s parents left.
Lu Xuan only cared to gorge himself, ignoring all of the reporters and people from the outside world who wanted to meet him.
He asked Yun Ling’er about Earth’s current predicament. The pressing issue was that the monsters have completely lost control.
As time pa.s.sed, the restoration of spirit qi had grown intense, with more ordinary creatures being awakened as monsters. Originally, Lu Xuan had planned to control them through the Myriad Demon Valley.
He wanted to constantly pick out monsters with potential and get them to join the Myriad Demon Valley.
He was then going to pick the victor out of those monsters and crown it as the monster king before using it to control the monster tide.
That had been a useful method when Lu Xuan was around.
However, everything changed with the appearance of the monsters from the Tempest Ocean Realm.
The most powerful monster on Earth and the monsters’ cultivation techniques had been in the Myriad Demon Valley. Because of that, the demons that have awakened spiritual intelligence had no choice but to submit to the Myriad Demon Valley.
With the methods and the subjects Lu Xuan left behind, the monsters that refused to submit would eventually be annihilated. There was no other possibility.
However, the monopoly of the Myriad Demon Valley had been broken with the arrival of many powerful monster kings whose cultivation was at the summit of the Divine Transformation Realm and even the Three Flower Realm.
These monster kings occupied mountains as their territories and each controlled countless monsters. The Dark Eagle King that Lu Xuan encountered on his way back was one of the great monster kings whose cultivation was at the Three Flower Realm. It controlled the Wuyi Mountains.
The system that Lu Xuan had set up previously had completely lost control. It was why human activity had been restricted to the base cities they had had to set up once again.
There were too many monsters causing trouble and humans suffered heavy losses. They could not control the scale of the monsters’ devastation, which made it too dangerous for countless humans to be spread across the wilderness.
The base cities were like battle fortresses, armed to the teeth with high-tech weapons and cultivation techniques.
Even the experts from the Tempest Ocean Realm would not want to attack such a battle fortress.
These monster kings were distributed all over Earth.
Aside from the monster kings that have crossed over the ancient pathway of the stars, another source of trouble was the experts from the Tempest Ocean Realm.
These experts came from various factions. Some occupied caves in secret realms throughout the wilderness and awaited an opportunity to achieve a breakthrough.
Others did whatever they pleased in base cities and the government of the Earth Federation could only tolerate them.
They didn’t dare to offend these powerful cultivators. At first, the Earth Federation had tried to organize the military to encircle and attack them, but to no avail. Against these powerful cultivators, their armies were only a small threat to the fighters at the lower tiers of the Divine Transformation Realm. The more powerful Divine Transformation Realm fighters could ignore them.
Some of the powerful cultivators even went to various lands and cooperated with the leaders there, who rapidly grew strong with the support of these cultivators.
The Earth Federation did not dare to suppress them, which resulted in dissension and discord amongst the rulers of the base cities. The base cities that were subordinate to the Earth Federation were no longer able to suppress these dissenters.
This was especially since the Earth Federation had basically been created from the people’s fear of Lu Xuan’s power.
Every major region had its culture and economy, so it would already impressive enough if he managed to forcefully unify them for a few decades. Who could have expected such a big change to happen in just a few years?
Many restorationists started to appear in the major regions, but they grew to become more arrogant over time. Some of them even organized public activities. In the past years, the Earth Federation had to suppress restorationist activities hundreds of times.
Lu Xuan’s expression did not change after he heard all of this. The overall development of the situation was becoming more similar to what he knew in his previous life. It was almost a carbon copy.
Lu Xuan had made many plans and integrated Earth’s overall strength since his rebirth, yet it was being easily and violently torn apart by someone else.
He had worked hard for decades, but the situation had reverted to what it was before overnight.
If the ordinary citizens have not leaned toward consolidating the strength of everyone on Earth after they felt an unprecedented sense of threat from how powerful the Tempest Ocean Realm was, the major regions would have left the Earth Federation and restored their old countries two years ago.
The situation was worse than he imagined. In the past, he had managed to promote the creation of the Earth Federation using his powerful abilities. Since that was the case, those people could also use their might to split the Earth Federation back into various countries. Everything depended on how strong the person was.
Strength truly allowed a person to do whatever he wanted!
“Master, that’s the current situation. The separationist tendencies in the various regions are getting stronger with each pa.s.sing moment. I’ve personally taken action to suppress them in the past, but I was still foiled by the experts from the Tempest Ocean Realm. I didn’t manage to protect the Earth Federation that you left behind!” Yun Ling’er’s eyes turned a little dull.
Lu Xuan patted Yun Ling’er’s shoulder as he said, “That’s alright. It’s normal for you to not be able to deal with the strength of the Tempest Ocean Realm right now. However, it won’t be long until you reach the Consolidation Realm in the future if you follow the route I planned for you!”
He had done everything he did in the past to defend against the Tempest Ocean Realm, but he had expected that day to come several decades later. How powerful would Yun Ling’er become then?
Anybody would be able to protect Earth if they developed and grew, be it Lu Shanshan, Lu Guoguo, Yun Ling’er, or even Liu Wanrong. Earth might even be able to contend with the Tempest Ocean Realm if they all got stronger.
However, his only miscalculation was that the Tempest Ocean Realm invaded Earth decades before, resulting in Earth returning to its original state.
Still, he had returned. It was alright; there was still time for everything.
He had managed to pacify the world in the past, and he could definitely do it again!
