Chapter 176: The Secret of the Resurrection Seed!

All human Martial Kings, at this moment, couldn’t help but instantly feel ten years older.

In the end, is it still impossible to escape this fate?

“There are only seven days left. Within these seven days, select the elite talents worth taking along, and then transport them via the battle ark to the location of the Forbidden City!”

“Family members are also allowed to be brought along!”

“Base No. 1 will evacuate directly. As for the other super bases and large bases, inform them to enter the Vast Domain on their own, prepare for survival, and wait for our arrival!”

“As for the small bases… there’s not enough time, we must temporarily abandon them.”

Luo Yu’s voice remained calm as still water, “For all actions, make sure to find a suitable pretext. Don’t cause mass panic among humanity.”

“Yes, City Lord!”

All Martial King-level individuals nodded heavily.

Super bases and large bases still had teleportation arrays to the Vast Domain…

Moreover, their families also had quite a few elite geniuses, so they had sufficient reason and opportunity to escape.

But the small bases neither had teleportation arrays nor particularly outstanding talents.

There was no way—they could only be abandoned.

There were 10,008 human bases worldwide.

Small bases were the majority.

Altogether, the population of the small bases accounted for nearly 70% of the global human population.

And even within Base No. 1, the super bases, and the large bases, it was impossible for everyone to be evacuated…

This meant that nearly 99% of humanity would be abandoned, with less than 1% able to successfully reach the Vast Domain and grasp a sliver of survival!

“City Lord, actually, we still have another option—why not give it a try?”

Meng Qianzheng couldn’t help but speak up, “King Su, with the potential he currently possesses, any major force would be willing to spare no expense to recruit him. As long as he is willing to join any one of them, we could completely leverage that force’s power to directly annihilate the Siwu Clan!”

Hearing this, many Martial Kings’ eyes lit up, feeling that this method was feasible.

They themselves could also join forces.

But given their aptitude, they couldn’t enter major powers like the Five Great Alliances.

Even if they managed to join, they wouldn’t have any say, let alone ask someone to help eradicate the Siwu Clan…

Su Xiaobai was different.

He had already cleared the 104th floor of the Tower of Delusion and was ranked first, the most dazzling, monstrous genius across the entire Virtual Net…

With just a word from him, not to mention wiping out one Siwu Clan, even ten Siwu Clans would be no problem!

“This idea—I had thought of it a thousand years ago, but I can only say, it’s not feasible!”

“All right, the meeting is over. Time is running out. Immediately begin the preparations for the selection!”

Luo Yu directly rejected Meng Qianzheng’s suggestion, “Everyone else may leave. King Su, please stay. I have something to discuss with you.”

Although Meng Qianzheng and the others were full of confusion, unable to understand why this suggestion was rejected, once Luo Yu spoke, they could only comply.

Soon, everyone in the Central War Strategy Meeting Room had left.

Only Su Xiaobai and Luo Yu remained.

Luo Yu flicked his finger, and a soundproof barrier formed from spiritual energy enveloped the two of them.

“King Su, you’re probably very curious why I rejected that proposal just now, aren’t you?”

Luo Yu looked at Su Xiaobai, smiling slightly, then stood up and walked to the window, gazing out over the full panorama of Base No. 1.

“You once reached the 101st floor, and were also a talent whom the Five Great Alliances fought to recruit. You must have encountered some reason that forced you to give up. Otherwise, the Siwu Clan wouldn’t still be a threat today.”

Su Xiaobai smiled lightly.

“That’s right. Fortunately, I discovered the truth at the time and abandoned that idea. Otherwise, the Earth we see today would no longer be Earth, but a wasteland… a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood that I can vividly imagine even with my eyes closed!”

Luo Yu’s gaze grew deep. “Do you know… why the Siwu Clan is so determined to invade Earth?”

“I don’t know, but I am very curious.”

Su Xiaobai’s eyes flashed.

Earlier, from Luo Yu’s words, he had already heard that the Siwu Clan had Martial Emperor-level existences, which puzzled him—

If they already had Martial Emperors, why would they still covet Earth?

“Because within Earth, there exists a ‘Resurrection Seed’*!”

[*Revival Seed changed to Resurrection Seed]

Luo Yu said.

“Resurrection Seed?”

Su Xiaobai’s eyes gleamed.

“After the Siwu Clan’s lifeforms die on Earth, they can still revive in the Vast Domain… is it related to this?”

“Exactly!”

Luo Yu nodded.

“Earth itself is actually a micro-world space, independent of the Vast Domain!”

“But whether we should call it good luck or bad luck…”

“If it’s good luck, it’s because Earth’s world core, after countless eons of evolution, has somehow transformed into an existence comparable to a celestial-grade treasure!”

“And that is the Resurrection Seed!”

“Anyone who refines Earth’s world core would essentially gain an almost immortal, eternal, undying Resurrection Seed!”

“But if it’s bad luck, it’s because the Resurrection Seed is equivalent to a celestial-grade treasure— we mere mortals simply have no right to possess it!”

“An innocent man gets into trouble by carrying a precious gem.”

A bunch of powerless mortals sitting atop such a treasure would inevitably draw the covetous eyes of other races!

“The Siwu Clan was the first to discover this secret, and I was the second.”

…

World Core… Undying Body… Celestial-grade Treasure…

Su Xiaobai caught several keywords that piqued his interest.

“City Lord Luo, then why don’t you just refine the World Core yourself?”

“If such a treasure is secured, humanity wouldn’t have to face so many dangers. Wouldn’t that be wonderful?”

Su Xiaobai said.

“I do indeed have the qualifications to refine the World Core…”

“Anyone who reaches the Martial Emperor level has that qualification!”

“But refining it isn’t something that can be completed in a short time.”

“If I were to attempt it, it would take at least thirty thousand years!”

“By then, before the process even finishes, the spatial rift would already be fully opened, and the Siwu Clan’s Martial Emperors would have slain me long ago!”

Luo Yu let out a self-mocking laugh.

Thirty thousand years!

Su Xiaobai secretly clicked his tongue.

Refining a World Core took that long… no wonder Luo Yu dared not attempt it.

But on second thought, it made sense— after all, it was a treasure that could grant near-immortality.

It was reasonable that refining it would require so much time.

“And there’s another hidden reason why I rejected King Meng’s proposal!”

“Because I’m a human, recognized by Earth’s natural laws.”

“So even if the spatial rift only allows Fourth-tier Martial Kings to pass through, I can still suppress my cultivation and return freely…”

“But the Siwu Clan can’t do this. They are rejected by Earth’s natural laws!”

“Even if they suppress their cultivation to enter, they would be strongly repelled by Earth’s laws and eventually lost in the spatial storm, completely destroyed!”

“Thus, for them to enter, they either have to wait until Earth is fully opened, or…”

“Bathed in human blood.”

“The Siwu lifeforms that managed to enter earlier had all been bathed in human blood, as were those ferocious beasts that were released!”

Bathed in human blood?!

Su Xiaobai’s brows furrowed tightly.

“Currently, only the Siwu Clan knows about the Resurrection Seed.”

“But once you go and seek out another power, asking them to wipe out the Siwu Clan—do you think the Siwu Clan won’t retaliate with everything they’ve got before dying?”

“And once that secret is exposed, Earth being lost would be a small matter— the true consequence…”

“I believe you can imagine it yourself.”

Luo Yu’s calm words revealed an astonishing darkness and cruelty!

If this matter were made public, then all forces and all people would fix their eyes on humanity for the sake of the Resurrection Seed, a treasure comparable to a celestial artifact!

At that time, not just Earth’s World Core, but all of humanity would be doomed!
