Chapter 211: Support (I)
The sky was clear.
Although the surroundings looked peaceful, Chen Yiming didn’t dare to be careless.
The otherworld was a very different world from the blue planet.
Martial arts had gradually risen up and taken over the place of technological weapons on the blue planet. The reason for this was the invasion from the otherworld.
The mysterious power that could allow a living creature to continuously evolve through cultivation was known in the different countries as spiritual energy, essence energy, spiritual essence, and so on.
Until now, the research on this mysterious power was still at the stage of application.
In short, even someone as strong as the human master realm could not analyze the essence of the mysterious power. Therefore, in this era, martial arts cultivation was still a path that only humans with the requisite talent could take.
It was still far from the golden age of martial arts where everyone was an expert. As a result, the number of combatants at the lowest rank on the blue planet and in the otherworld was completely incomparable.
“It seems that my first experience in the otherworld can only stop here.”
Chen Yiming let out a long sigh, his interest waning.
Ye Yisha’s special ability was not much stronger than Chen Yiming’s naked eye after being suppressed in the otherworld.
At the peak of the warrior realm, 10 kilometers was no longer a safe distance, let alone for those of the master realm.
It was enough for him to have a place to stay in the otherworld that could allow him to cultivate safely. Any further exploration could wait until he completed the internal force fusion and increased his combat strength to the next level.
Chen Yiming took one last look at the scenery of the otherworld before turning around and walking towards the spatial rift.
Ye Yisha heaved a sigh of relief and quickly followed.
The space around them changed.
Chen Yiming and Ye Yisha had returned to the catacombs.
The surroundings were dead silent. The aura of the giant steel-spear spiders had already disappeared, leaving only the remains of the three spider emperors at the bottom of the pit.
Chen Yiming glanced at them, then jumped out of the pit with Ye Yisha.
After that, he did not stay for long and left for East Lake City.
…
East Lake City, Bright Lion Square.
Hundreds of burly martial arts practitioners dressed in the same tight-fitting clothes were lined up in rows.
These people were all from the Chen corporation’s hunting team. Each of them was carefully selected from the elites and had plenty of experience in the wilderness.
None of them were weak, and their levels were all above the eighth transformation of the disciple realm.
The onlookers not far away were discussing this.
The Chen corporation was a huge faction that had risen rapidly in East Lake City recently.
Thanks to Chen Yiming’s reputation as a genius disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, the Chen corporation’s status in East Lake City was unparalleled. It was a faction that many martial arts practitioners wanted to join.
This was because there was no other civilian martial arts faction that had a warrior who had mastered the transformation of internal force.
In the middle of the square, Chen Yiming was surrounded by Wan Rong, Wan Ya, and his former fellow disciples from the Mantis Snake Sword School. Ye Yisha had already been assigned to Mo Yanfei’s side to take on the work of gathering intelligence.
In order to improve his reputation, it would be convenient for him to become a higher-up of the Myriad Phenomena Sect in the future and come into contact with things on a higher level.
As soon as Chen Yiming returned to East Lake City, he decided to personally lead a team to support the cities around the sea of flowers, and the operation to eliminate the scattered giant steel-spear spiders in the southern cities.
“Yiming, please take care of Wan Ya and these useless disciples,” Wan Rong said with a smile.
As Chen Yiming had publicly reported that he was going home, Wan Rong had called Wan Ya back when he heard the news. In addition, Chen Yiming had gone to the sea of flowers, the catacombs, and the otherworld, so they had enough time to catch up with him.
“No problem, Master Wan.” Chen Yiming nodded in agreement.
His current situation was similar to returning to his hometown in glory. Naturally, he would do his best to take care of his former fellow disciples.
Other than Wang Bowen, the disciples of the Mantis Snake Sword School beside him were silent and could not help but feel reserved.
His former fellow disciples were now feeling as distant from him as if they were standing at the bottom of the mountain while he was at the top of the mountain. They were on completely different levels, so they naturally did not know what to talk about with him.
Soon, the team set off.
Chen Yiming activated his black fog internal force, which turned into a ball of black smoke that enveloped all of them.
He did not plan to travel slowly. Instead, he used the advanced technique of the black fog internal force to bring everyone to the battlefield quickly.
A ball of black smoke that covered an area of dozens of meters rose into the sky and moved through the air, crossing the city wall and heading northwest.
“You… you can even do this?”
Chen Yiming’s actions shocked the surrounding onlookers.
This was too unexpected. This method was unprecedented, so much so that the Chen corporation would receive even more attention in the future.
“Making the right choice is more important than working hard. This has always been the case.”
Wan Rong, who was still standing in Bright Lion Square, sighed in his heart.
He had taken in many disciples in his life. Not only were there disciples from the martial arts school, but there were also many who had been nurtured by the Wan clan since they were young.
However, even with all these disciples combined, they were still far inferior to Chen Yiming.
“A warrior who has mastered the transformation of internal force can actually bring people to the battlefield so quickly!”
In a corner of the city wall, the military warrior Su Chengwang sighed loudly with an envious expression.
He instantly realized how superior this technique was. It could even be applied for fighting mutant beasts.
“That’s true. Our military can also consider learning this technique.”
Cao Zhengjun also thought of the same thing and nodded.
The new city guardian, Feng Zhijiang, who was standing in the middle of the group of military warriors, pretended not to hear them.
To use one’s internal force to protect a group of disciples while moving at high speed, and not just one or two people, but more than 100 people, required extremely strong control over one’s internal force. This was not something that ordinary people at the same level could do.
In addition, relying on the explosion of internal force to move in midair would consume a large amount of internal force.
Without a strong physique and recovery speed that exceeded most people of the same level, using this method to enter the battlefield was equivalent to courting death if one faced enemies of the same level.
At this moment, the 100 elites from the hunting team who were wrapped in the black smoke were all shocked.
It could be said that many people had joined the Chen corporation previously because they were aiming at the leader who was at the second stage of the warrior realm and who was even a genius disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Sect. Some of these people could not help but have some hidden motives.
For example, by relying on their strength and underhanded methods, they could gradually kick out the original higher-ups and replace them.
Now, they were deeply convinced by Chen Yiming’s abilities and did not dare to have any ill intentions towards his leadership.
Unknowingly, Chen Yiming’s move had suppressed the unstable factors caused by the rapid expansion of the corporation.
…
On the battlefield in the sea of flowers, Creek Mountain City.
Due to the fact that they had adopted a defensive strategy right from the start, more and more mutant beasts were wandering around the wilderness. All the transportation routes were cut off, and Creek Mountain City was besieged by the mutant beasts.
At this moment, the news that the giant steel-spear spiders had crawled out of the ground and spread to the entire southern city had already reached Creek Mountain City. Panic spread to everyone’s hearts.
They were stuck without supplies from the outside world, and the food stored in the city was limited.
Once there was a shortage of food, the city would be in chaos without the need for the mutant beasts to take any action.
In the conference room, a meeting among the warriors was underway.
With the city guardian, military warriors, and civilian warriors, there were a total of ten over people.
From the moment the beast tide rushed out of the sea of flowers to the moment the city was surrounded, various possible solutions had been discussed over and over again, but they still could not find a good way to break out of the situation.
The reason was that the warriors in the city could not leave the city rashly. They had to be wary of the hungry mutant beasts.
Suddenly, an officer barged into the meeting room without knocking.
“Something is happening outside the city!”
Everyone in the meeting room was shocked and instantly thought of the beast tide.
For Creek Mountain City, regardless of whether they successfully repelled the mutant beasts in the end, they would suffer heavy losses.
“Phew! Someone is killing the mutant beasts.”
The officer took a deep breath and continued to explain.
When the people in the meeting room heard this, their expressions turned from worry to anger.
His words were unclear, and they almost thought that a beast tide had attacked. If not for the pressing matter at hand, they really wanted to give him a good scolding.
Soon, the warriors from Creek Mountain City left the meeting room and rushed to the city wall to check on the situation.
