Chapter 1720: Chapter 1720
The restless Du You wanted to find the enemy, but this enemy was not so easy to find. Having reached the eighth tier, he was not a simple existence anywhere, even in relatively weaker worlds.
Furthermore, the coordinates of an eighth-tier world are not easily found.
Planar hunters find it hard to obtain this kind of information, as such news mostly concentrates in the hands of the strong. Faced with these worlds, even they find it not enough for their own use, let alone hand it over to others.
From the news inquired by the two sisters, Du You knew that the situation between Earth and Dragon Island had indeed become tense. But it seemed this kind of situation had happened before. Most battles occurred below the fourth tier.
Indeed, once you surpass the fourth tier, it’s not easy to have large-scale conflicts.
This situation seemed more like both sides were merely training troops. The Dragon Clan was just releasing some Dragon Men and Dragon Beasts, handling the situation carelessly, without taking it seriously.
As for the humans, it seemed they were using these entities to enhance the strength of the lower tier individuals. There were many tasks involving Dragon Men and Dragon Beasts appearing everywhere, outwardly just needing these materials.
But there had never been a battlefield at the seventh-tier level, let alone a higher tier.
Du You, finding no other choice, set his sights on other eighth-tier world coordinates. The company started focusing on acquiring various world coordinates, and even Li Minglu founded a planar hunter organization.
This planar hunter organization was specifically meant to help the company find diverse unknown world coordinates.
The risks were very high, but the benefits were equally great, as their strength improved the fastest.
During this process, Xi Qianxue and others finally broke through to level 63, then emerged.
"Congratulations, you’ve reached the pinnacle of the early stage of the seventh tier. Continuing to advance will push you into the mid-seventh tier, by then you’ll be quite strong even among seventh-tier beings," Du You said happily.
Li Mengyao pouted, "Still, we’re no match for you. We’ve reached the seventh tier, and it took us so long to hit level 63, whereas you’re already level 77, an expert at the late stage of the eighth tier."
Du You chuckled bitterly; there was nothing he could do about it, this was the difference brought about by one’s foundation.
"Oh, Elsa is actually at level 64 now," Du You’s eyes lit up as he noticed the difference in Elsa’s aura.
"Of course, Elsa’s talent is higher than ours," Xi Qianxue said, embracing Elsa, preventing Elsa from pouncing into Du You’s arms, leaving her looking pitifully at Xi Qianxue.
Du You found it amusing to see Elsa , though he didn’t object.
"Alright, to celebrate our strength gain, let’s hold a grand event in our territory."
Du You wouldn’t move this banquet to Earth; without active promotion, he had already greatly impacted Earth. If he were to promote it himself, someone would definitely come to discuss it with him.
Such matters affecting the development of Earth’s power, Du You certainly didn’t want to engage in.
After the celebration, everyone temporarily put aside the idea of continuing their cultivation, indulging in a truly leisurely time. This kind of life did indeed wear down one’s fighting spirit; sometimes Du You thought so too.
While waiting, Du You didn’t expect that before he found a suitable battlefield, one would deliver itself to him. Because over the years, the Tangled Undead World encountered issues.
"I never thought the demons would act so quickly."
Du You brought everyone to the Tangled Undead World, feeling the pressure converging in the sky above this world; he knew this was a warning from the world’s will. Du You was also noticed by the world’s will thanks to his previous assistance, making the world’s will friendly to this outsider.
"Master, Franluoka requests an audience," Lin Yushi suddenly said.
Arriving in this world, they suppressed their abilities to the seventh tier, but many of their skills were still beyond the seventh tier.
"For now, disguise yourselves and don’t reveal your identities just yet," Du You told Xi Qianxue and others, as this world was still an undead realm. If they knew there were living beings among them, who knows how they’d react.
Even in a crisis, some would likely aim to invade the living world, a natural instinct of the undead.
The group nodded and then applied special materials on themselves, enveloping their bodies with an aura of death. Even when using skills, the aura of death pervaded them, though it served no particular use.
Du You stepped forward, looking at Franluoka. Similarly, Franluoka was surprised, realizing how much Du You’s strength had increased in such a short time, becoming unfathomable.
Now Du You felt to him like those old timers, akin to an abyss with unseen depths.
Secretly, his attitude towards Du You had subtly changed. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⟡𝕗𝗂𝗋𝖾⟡𝕟𝕖𝕥
"My old friend, I didn’t expect we’d meet so soon. You must have sensed the pressure from the sky, which is from the Other World invasion. This aura is brought by the demons. We’ve discussed it, and it seems the demons are forcibly opening an entrance to our world, bringing in an existence on par with the Demon Emperor.
"What countermeasures do we have?" Du You asked, referring to the so-called Demon Emperor, an eighth-tier entity akin to a Dragon Emperor.
In reality, Du You had already sensed it since his suppressed power gradually weakened. At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before he could wield his eighth-tier strength again.
"We have eight Death Gods nearing the main god level, preparing to make breakthroughs by leveraging the world’s escalation this time. But before that, we need to locate the demons’ passage. As long as we destroy the passage, their plan fails."
"What do you need from me?" Du You asked again, remaining straightforward.
"Your forces are the strongest, and we need you to cooperate by investigating all suspicious locations."
Du You didn’t hesitate, nodding directly, "I agree." Yet despite his words, Du You didn’t really want the demons to fail. Only when eighth-tier demons arrived could he truly reap benefits. With Du You’s current power, he didn’t believe the incoming demons could seriously impact him.
