Chapter 2715: Chapter 2711: The Start of the Holy War_1
This indicated that Yang Chen was not someone who would be easily blinded by what was before him.
True King spoke slowly, “Secondly, about the Merit Points, you won’t get a single point, but you can ask any of us five King-level Powerhouses to help you once. However, it’s limited to one time only. If you ask me for help, this one-time opportunity will be used up, and you won’t be able to ask other King-level Powerhouses for help. This is also a decision we made temporarily, so that the Southern region King-level Powerhouses won’t say we didn’t take care of you in the future!”
As he said this, the True King revealed a smile.
Yang Chen could tell that the True King was an easygoing person. The only gentle and comforting Qi he felt before came from him.
As for the other King-level Powerhouses, their attitudes were not as friendly. Even King of Joyful Sound, whom he met before, had a frosty aura, making Yang Chen feel as if he was in an ice cave from far away.
True King did not rush Yang Chen to make a decision and said calmly, “Regarding helping you, as long as it’s not something morally wrong and within our capabilities, we can assist you. As for these two choices, think carefully about which one is more suitable for you and which one is worthier of your choice. We are not in a hurry.”
Hearing this, Yang Chen did not think twice and started to ponder slowly.
One choice was Merit Points, and the other was to have a King-level Powerhouse to help him once.
Yang Chen had a hard time choosing.
Ten million Merit Points meant that he wouldn’t have to worry about earning them anymore, while having a King-level Powerhouse to help him once could assist him with some personal matters that he couldn’t handle himself, which was also tempting.
After weighing the pros and cons, Yang Chen didn’t rush to make a decision.
Many people around him were envious, even the Boundless Stage Experts. At this moment, they couldn’t help but feel envious of Yang Chen. Even they might not have the chance to ask a King-level Powerhouse for help.
Yang Chen finally made up his mind after much deliberation.
He chose the second option.
This was his decision after careful consideration.
The first one, ten million Merit Points, was indeed very tempting, but he could obtain Merit Points through time and effort.
However, asking a King-level Powerhouse to help him was not something that could be done merely with time and effort.
Therefore, after deep thought, Yang Chen said, “I choose the second option.”
True King laughed. He originally thought Yang Chen would choose the first option, as it seemed much more tempting.
However, it turned out that Yang Chen was quite clever.
“You little brat, you have a long-term perspective. It’s true; you managed to traverse the Extreme Yin Land. If you didn’t have some wisdom, you would have probably died a long time ago. Anyway, if you need any help in the future, don’t hesitate to ask. We will all help you unconditionally.” True King laughed.
Yang Chen hurriedly said, “Thank you, Elder True King.”
He chose to play the long game.
The only regretful thing was that he had hoped to get some Merit Points to see if he could buy some materials to solve his current problem with the Evil Qi’s Origin and the cultivation of the Mysterious Wandering Body technique.
But now, it seemed he had to wait a bit longer.
“This is what you deserve. As for those who contributed, Battlefield treats everyone equally. As for now, we have already exchanged messages with the South. Everyone, don’t leave the Spirit King Sacred Area; in a few days, all the forces will gather here, and the Holy War may start at any moment!” True King spoke earnestly.
Hearing this, Yang Chen felt a sudden shock in his heart. He did not expect it to start so soon.
However, it was better this way. The sooner this storm ended, the sooner he could enter the Heaven Lord Pavilion.
So without saying much, True King let Yang Chen and some others leave first. Those who stayed started to discuss the Holy War plans.
Under the guidance of several female cultivators from the Spirit King Sacred Area, Yang Chen stayed there temporarily.
The disciples of the Spirit King Sacred Area looked at him with curiosity and admiration. Apparently, his reputation was well-known in the Spirit King Sacred Area, and they knew about him very well.
Many female cultivators cast flirtatious glances at him, which made Yang Chen secretly helpless. In the end, he chose to ignore them.
While staying in the Spirit King Sacred Area, Yang Chen wanted to cultivate peacefully for two days. Unfortunately, the people in the Spirit King Sacred Area were very enthusiastic, making Yang Chen feel quite uncomfortable.
Being famous had its troubles.
Like now, his fame had completely spread wide open. There were many people who admired him and even more who wanted to befriend him.
Yang Chen was extremely troubled.
Fortunately, the Holy War came not too slow.
He stayed in the Spirit King Sacred Area for eight days.
Various forces had gathered here unknowingly, which was also why Yang Chen felt that there were many people seeking him. Many forces had gathered in the Spirit King Sacred Area.
The scale of these forces, varying sects, and schools was huge, ranging from billions to tens of billions, from below the True God Realm to the Enlightenment Stage, Nirvana Stage…
The number of Powerful Ones was countless, all gathered here, preparing to launch a shocking Holy War.
Although Yang Chen did not venture out, his soul dispersed and sensed the unprecedented sight. He knew that the Holy War was not a baseless rumor. This time, the Southern Realm was going to launch a desperate battle combining the forces of the North and South.
With this thought, Yang Chen’s heart began to boil.
Finally, on the ninth day!
The higher-ups had issued a message, asking the various forces to gather and prepare the first wave of attack, to test the ghost creatures of the Extreme Yin Land.
Powerful figures from all the forces were called up, and although Yang Chen was only temporarily staying with the Three Flowers Sect, everyone regarded him as a member of the Three Flowers Sect for the time being.
He was personally called by Spirit Flower Venerate and temporarily placed in the Nirvana Stage team of the Three Flowers Divine Region.
As Yang Chen looked around now, he could see the staggering number of powerful experts in the Three Flowers Divine Region.
There were over a dozen Boundless Stage Experts!
Great Ascension Stage Powerhouses numbered in the dozens.
As for Nirvana Stage experts, there were nearly a thousand!
And for Enlightenment Stage, even more, numbered around 70,000 or 80,000!
With such a scale, even Yang Chen couldn’t help but sigh. After all, the entire Spirit Realm’s human race, it seemed, was only about the same in power as the Southern Realm’s single Divine Region.
But thinking about it, it made sense because the size of one Divine Region in the Southern Realm is roughly the same as one human race in the Spirit Realm.
And now, it was the entire force of the Three Flowers Divine Region. So many Powerful Ones were not only from the single Three Flowers Sect but also from many small and large factions that were affiliated with the Three Flowers Sect.
That’s why the number was so terrifying.
Looking down at the countless True God Realm experts, he could see a dense black mass that was impossible to be counted.
