Cultivators Are So Weak in This World

"Alright, no more words, let's go inside, prepare for a moment, and start the formal meeting." Zhang Rongfang looked around.

Everyone in his line of sight subconsciously lowered their heads to avoid eye contact, showing respect.

The pressure just now even caused some of the weaker people to faint directly.

Up until now, nobody was even sure what method that was. Many were still speculating that it might be the ability to manipulate wind, airflow, or air.

Only people like Long understood that it was fundamentally a skill of mental awareness.

The group entered the rest area, then separated to go to their respective fixed rooms.

As the Palace Master, Dipao had long prepared everything.

Zhang Rongfang, as the host, walked all the way, and everything was orderly wherever he went.

Key areas were tightly controlled by important experts patrolling, allowing no errors to occur.

The rest room in Yuan City was in the deepest part of Chenxi Palace.

It was a spacious courtyard with a huge red bat statue erected outside.

But at this time, right beside the plaque hanging in front of the courtyard gate, a few people were waiting.

The members of the Blood Alliance surrounded Zhang Rongfang as they approached, and gradually slowed down when they saw a few people waiting at the door.

"This is the Blood Alliance's resting place, you..." A Bloodline from the Earth Branch stepped forward to rebuke.

But Zhang Rongfang raised his hand to stop him.

"In Yue Shi's honor, I'll give you five minutes."

He recognized the identities of the people waiting for him.

The young man at the front was precisely Ounan, whom he had previously saved.

Ounan, along with Gongsun Yi and Gorvi, couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh of relief.

Based on Blood King Daoist Ancestor's previous style, they had analyzed before making the move to wait here.

Now it seems that indeed, the Blood King is the gentlest toward ordinary people among the three major forces.

"Apologies for disturbing Blood King." Having a familiar face, Ounan stepped forward and bowed deeply.

"We're sorry for choosing this time to come; it is precisely to reveal to you the true intentions of Chana Tower Long!"

"True intentions?" Zhang Rongfang's expression showed a trace of a smile. "What true intentions? Tell me."

"We have evidence proving Long's purpose in opening the passage is not to escape to the outer world; he intends to open the passage to the White Pupil! His goal is to accelerate the destruction of the entire world!"

Ounan briefly and succinctly stated the entire content.

"Evidence? What evidence do you have?" Zhang Rongfang raised an eyebrow.

"This is the video record given to us by the Secret Keeper." Ounan took out a palm-sized black metal block from his pouch, with a tiny button and dial on it.

"Can it be opened?" he asked.

"Of course." Zhang Rongfang nodded, also curious about what kind of evidence these ant-like blood inheritors could produce to prove Long's intention was not to escape by opening the passage.

Ounan looked around, confirming that he had no intention of dismissing his subordinates, then quickly pressed several buttons on the block.

Soon, amidst clicking sounds,

the block detached from Ounan's palm, automatically floated in mid-air, and a gap opened at the top.

A white beam of light projected from the gap.

In the air before everyone, the light beam condensed into a circular wide screen.

But unfortunately, nothing appeared on the screen; it was a blank.

After waiting for a while, the light screen still showed nothing.

Ounan and the others were stunned, realizing something was wrong, quickly grabbed the small block and adjusted it continuously.

But to no avail, no matter how they adjusted it, the screen remained blank.

"It seems your preparations aren't sufficient...." Zhang Rongfang smiled.

"But we truly saw Long inexplicably appear with awareness and then kill many members of the Spirit Eye Race at that time!" Gongsun Yi, slightly anxious, interjected.

"Take them away." Zhang Rongfang was too lazy to wait for the three to act and slightly flicked his finger. Immediately, subordinates stepped forward and forcibly dragged them away.

With the evidence failing, even if Ounan and the other two wanted to do something more, they understood there was no chance left. They struggled a few times, resigned to leaving.

Zhang Rongfang and his group also put the matter behind them, smoothly settling into the courtyard, and the next morning.

In the grand hall of Chenxi Palace, the Spirit Alliance, Human Alliance, Blood Alliance, Eternal Palace, and Chana Tower.

All power representatives were present, and after the previous aura confrontation between Zhang Rongfang and Long, no one dared to object, and they all passed several joint agreements.

Additionally, the reason for their straightforwardness was also that these agreements did not touch their fundamental interests, just sending some non-martial research personnel.

In the overcrowded grand hall,

hundreds gathered, sitting below, and on the podium above,

the Blood Alliance's spokesperson Hongye was solemnly reading out the final agreement decided earlier.

"According to time calculations, the surface destruction time is around four hundred years, but the impact on the ecological environment may continue to accelerate biological destruction. We need to consider lead time."

"Here, the Blood Alliance proposes to establish a joint research center with the Eternal Palace as the core, targeting the long-distance passage."

"This center requires each gathering site and exchange area to conduct knowledge and intelligence selection projects, selecting a large number of people most suitable for participating in research work, thereby constructing the strongest and fastest research institution to shorten the time required for passage construction."

"There's still a full four hundred years, there's absolutely no need for us to exert ourselves prematurely, right?"

Finally, a voice expressed a different opinion.

The speaker was the chief leader of the Human Alliance, Xuezelas.

He was a tall man who looked gentle and refined, wearing glasses with a calm and stern demeanor.

After his speech, his gaze quickly scanned Feng, the representative of the Ling Sect, and Hongye of the Blood Alliance.

"For Spirit People, four hundred years may not be very long, but for our Human Alliance, it's at least a span of five generations. Starting a project now would cost us too much for too long."

"The Eternal Palace and Blood Alliance have already made commitments regarding this matter. They have fully opened the qualification and authority for the lowest level of Heart-Burning Furnace and Bloodline transformation, and are providing a free benefit distribution for everyone once," Hongye replied earnestly.

Her voice had just resonated from the podium when it immediately triggered a wave of uproar like a tsunami.

The Eternal Palace and Blood Alliance actually made even the basic transformation free!?

This is simply digging out the roots of the Human Alliance. If there was a choice, who would want to live underground forever in darkness?

It's imaginable that once the news is fully released, the Human Alliance would become history in no time.

Most ordinary people would choose to transform into Bloodline. Most Spirit People would also upgrade to become Martial Artists of the Furnace.

At this moment, Zhang Rongfang and La were standing in a hollow room within the wall, watching the conference through a one-way transparent wall.

"They may not believe in the fact of the world's destruction, but they will never go against my will here," Zhang Rongfang sighed.

"If the Spiritual Research Center is successfully established, we could train a large number of researchers in a very short time, improving project efficiency by at least tenfold," La had evidently calculated long ago.

"On the Chana Tower's side, hopefully they can also resolve the remaining two secret locks as soon as possible," Zhang Rongfang said quietly.

"Long should be more eager than us to open the passage," La answered.

"Do you believe in what those bloodline holders said before?" Zhang Rongfang had already shared what Ounan and others had said with La.

"What if I believe? What if I don't?" La retorted. "No matter what, no matter where its purpose is, all three secret locks must be released, and all the passage energy must be aptly prepared and perfectly constructed."

"Indeed..." Zhang Rongfang nodded slightly. He didn't care what Long's ultimate goal was; he just wanted to open the passage and go home.

If anyone dared to obstruct and cause trouble... then don't blame him for turning merciless.

Wow.

At this time, Hongye had already finished reading the resource sharing agreement. With cooperation and resource-sharing allocation, the resources of the Eternal Palace and Blood Alliance naturally far exceeded those of the Spirit Alliance and Human Alliance.

Such sharing was the greatest concession, instantly winning a round of enthusiastic applause.

"It's my turn, I'll go and say a few words," Zhang Rongfang smiled, turning towards the door.

"Zhang Rongfang," La suddenly called him, with a solemn expression, "don't underestimate Long."

"I never underestimate anyone," Zhang Rongfang replied.

"I mean, you'd better find an opportunity to confront it once," La suggested.

She knew that Zhang Rongfang, who had obtained the samples of the three kings, was now at an unprecedentedly terrifying level of power.

He could transform into a solid state whose fortitude surpassed Ophelia, adapt into countless evolutionary insects superior to the Nether, and morph into an intangible form like Ladi Lan, with temperatures rising to several tens or even millions of degrees.

The radiant temperature of daylight was now nearly nothing to him.

But all these meant nothing to Long.

Looking at La's serious and earnest expression, Zhang Rongfang felt a slight stir in his heart.

"Perhaps, I should try challenging Long," he thought.

No one knew Long's strength or abilities.

La had seen it, but even she couldn't comprehend it. Its actions were too swift and ended too quickly.

Under the pressure of the Blood Alliance and Eternal Palace, and the allure of abundant resources and benefits, the Spirit Alliance and Human Alliance, finally as two separate entities, fully integrated into the alliance of the Blood Alliance and Eternal Palace.

The opening of the Bloodline gave many ordinary people new opportunities.

Just think, long life, powerful bodies that are untroubled by daylight, formidable self-healing ability, and dreadful resistance to radiation.

What could be more suitable for survival on this barren land than the Bloodline?

Even the Heart-Burning Furnace cannot compare, as those expensive products requiring regular resource maintenance are out of reach for ordinary people.

Soon, in just a few weeks, under the relay escort of the Blood Alliance and Eternal Palace, groups of selected researchers quickly gathered at Eternal Palace to officially commence collaborative research to construct long-distance passages.

The Blood Alliance also began constructing a second Bloodline city, after Yuan City, near Eternal Palace.

It was named: Hope.

In the Taoyuan, within Chenxi Palace.

Di Pa and Zhang Rongfang overlooked the vast Sea of Oblivion below.

"Do you see? Long is a lot like you," Zhang Rongfang initially didn't notice, but after Long's last appearance in its true form, he suddenly discovered, surprisingly, that the humanoid Long was extremely similar in appearance to Di Pa.

Neither of them had eyes, ears, or a nose, only a mouth, and both had similarly mysterious origins.

"You don't think I'm with that monster, do you?" Di Pa exaggerated, "I am definitely not a monster as outrageously strong as he is!"
