Chapter 233: Ch 233- Holy Base (3)

Following David, everyone entered the hotel.

The interior was even more luxurious than its exterior. The floor was covered with smooth white marble and several large screens displayed information about the Holy Base. There were also many people moving around the reception area.

David walked toward the reception desk and spoke with the staff.

"Hello, I would like to book rooms for our group."

The receptionist smiled professionally and quickly began processing their request.

After checking the available rooms, she arranged several spacious rooms on the same floor so that everyone could stay close to each other.

David took out his identification card and then his bank card and paid for the rooms.

"Here are your room cards. Your rooms are on the twenty-third floor. You can use these cards to enter your rooms."

Everyone collected their room cards and followed David toward the elevator.

After reaching their floor, they briefly checked their rooms and placed their belongings inside.

Mo Ran was especially excited about the room. She looked around curiously, while Kitty immediately found a comfortable place to rest.

After everyone had settled down, David gathered them together.

"Alright, now let’s leave for the Human Federation Academy."

"Okay, Senior!"

Everyone nodded and followed him out of the hotel.

Soon, they arrived at a subway station.

The entrance was wide and modern, with several electronic gates.

People were constantly entering and leaving and large screens displayed the arrival times of different trains.

David led them through the gates and toward the platform.

Not long after, a train arrived.

Everyone boarded and found some empty seats together.

As Mo Yuan sat down, he looked around at the modern interior of the train.

’It really feels like I’m back in my old world.’

The technology here was quite similar to what he remembered from Earth 2026.

Meanwhile, his Copy and Paste Talent was constantly checking the people around him.

He saw many people with superior grade cultivation talents and even Peak grade ones.

The people with special talents were also much higher than the Cang Lan base but there was nothing special that caught his eye.

’My Copy and Paste Talent’s cooldown is also over. I’ll see if I can find anyone interesting when we reach the Human Federation Academy and register for the entrance test.’

While Mo Yuan was thinking about this, David turned toward him.

"Mo Yuan, how much do you know about the Holy Base?"

Mo Yuan shook his head.

"Not much, Senior. I only know that it’s one of the strongest bases of humanity and that the Human Federation Academy is located here. I don’t know much else."

David nodded.

"That’s fine. Once you register for the entrance test, you can buy a phone and browse the internet to learn more about the Holy Base."

He then continued, "But let me tell you a few basic things first."

Mo Yuan, Mo Ran and Ming Yue listened carefully.

As for the others, since their fathers were Sovereign Realm cultivators, they already knew most of this information.

"The entire Human Federation is governed by nine beings. All nine of them have reached the Peak Overlord Realm."

Hearing this, Mo Yuan looked at David curiously.

"Senior, is the Overlord Realm the realm above Monarch?"

David nodded.

"That’s right. The Overlord Realm comes after the Monarch Realm. Those nine beings are among the strongest existences on our planet. They are also responsible for protecting humanity."

Mo Yuan nodded.

At least now he knew what realm came after Monarch.

Curiosity soon got the better of him and he asked, "Senior, just how powerful are Overlord Realm cultivators?"

David smiled.

"They are extremely powerful."

Before he could explain further, Mu Qingying joined the conversation.

"I heard from my father that if Overlord Realm cultivators fought seriously, they could easily cause destruction on a continental scale and if they used their full strength, the damage would be even more terrifying."

David nodded.

"That’s true but don’t forget that ever since Primordial Qi appeared and the portals opened, Earth has also expanded tremendously. We are only living in a small corner of the planet, while nearly ninety-five percent of the world is occupied by beasts."

He paused before continuing.

"So when people talk about continental destruction, they are usually referring to the continents of the old Earth. The current world is far larger and destroying an entire continent is not something that can be done so easily."

Everyone nodded as they listened.

David then explained something even more important.

"Also, destroying things on a large scale doesn’t necessarily mean someone is stronger. True strength isn’t always about raw destructive power. Once a cultivator reaches the Monarch Realm, they begin comprehending something known as Laws."

Mo Yuan listened carefully.

"Your elemental path is the element you choose to cultivate in the Sovereign Realm. However, Laws are completely different. They are not simply about gathering elemental Qi or spreading an element through your body. Comprehending a Law is much more difficult, which is one of the reasons why there are so few Monarch Realm cultivators."

He paused for a moment.

"And the realms beyond Monarch become even more terrifying but you don’t need to worry about that for now."

Mo Yuan nodded thoughtfully.

’So comprehending Laws is the next major step after reaching the Monarch Realm.’

He couldn’t help but become interested.

’I need to obtain as many Comprehension Talents as possible and merge them with my Enlightenment Talent. If I can do that, my cultivation speed should become even more ridiculous.’

David continued speaking.

"As I said, there are nine Peak Overlord Realm cultivators in humanity. But..."

His expression suddenly became serious.

"There is also one mysterious existence who is the reason humanity still exists today."

Mo Yuan and the others looked at him in surprise.

"Only one person?" Mo Yuan asked.

David smiled.

"Yes. I had the same reaction when I first heard about him."

He continued, "No one knows his real name or even what he looks like. His title is also a mystery. All we know is that he has surpassed the Overlord Realm and protects humanity from the strongest beasts."

Mo Yuan’s expression became serious, as he thought ’a single person protecting the whole humanity, just how strong is he?’

David then looked at him and asked, "Mo Yuan, how many Peak Monarch Realm beasts do you think exist on the beast side?"

Mo Yuan then thought for a moment.

"Hmm... Since humanity is barely surviving, I would guess around fifty. There should also be some beings above that realm."

David shook his head with a smile.

"We don’t know the exact number but there are more than ten thousand."

"What?! Ten thousand?" Mo Yuan exclaimed.

Even the others were surprised.

"Hahaha! That’s why I said humanity survives only because of that mysterious existence. Those beasts don’t dare to invade our territory because of him."

Mo Yuan took a deep breath.

The difference between humanity and the beast race was far greater than he had imagined and just as he was about to get lost in thinking about that mysterious Being.

David looked outside at the approaching station and smiled.

"Alright, we’ll discuss the rest later. We are about to reach the academy."

Everyone turned their attention toward the train’s doors and Mo Yuan also pulled himself out of his thoughts.
