Chapter 1818: Chapter 1818
Du You slowly stood up and looked at the endless void: "I have to set out again, it might take a few days this time, you both wait for me at home." Du You said to Xi Qianxue and Li Mengyao beside him.
That’s right, Du You has been guarding this world for quite some time now. So it’s impossible for him to always be in the same place; over the years, this place has almost become his home. Or rather, the time Du You spent here over the years has surpassed the time he spent at the academy, and even other places. Fınd the newest release on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝔫𝔢𝔱
Hence later on, Du You brought his family over as well. After all, the world he’s guarding also hosts an eighth-tier world; although it doesn’t belong to him, mobilizing this world’s power is quite easy.
Considering that Du You is now a ninth-tier sage, he commands significant authority on Earth. When he needs this world to mobilize resources and assist him, this world naturally wouldn’t just go through the motions.
With a world’s resources tilted in their favor, collecting resources and enhancing themselves in this world became easier for Xi Qianxue and the others. However, as their strength grew, so did their bottlenecks, which also posed a problem.
Du You now understood why top-level experts are so few. It’s not that their backing forces ignore training them, but rather that it has a lot to do with one’s inherent talent and foundational strength.
Failing to lay a solid foundation at the beginning, or lacking adequate star levels, are both crucial factors affecting future development.
Even though he’s reached the ninth tier, he’s still powerless in this regard. Even for him, although there are no apparent bottlenecks to his current progress, advancing has become increasingly difficult.
After all these years, he hasn’t even managed to level up once. Or rather, the requirements to reach the next level seem out of reach, and he doesn’t even know when he’ll make further progress.
Moreover, Du You knows that out of the eight ninth-tier powerhouses, three, like him, haven’t advanced at all. Two are from other worlds, and one is native to Earth.
Among the ninth-tier, Du You definitely isn’t the weakest, having already reached a mid-level ranking.
"Has your doppelganger made a move again? Quite a few actions over the years indeed."
Du You frequently has to step out to impact the Beastman world’s attention through combat, thereby reducing resistance for his doppelganger. His family knows what he’s doing it for, but the outsiders remain unaware.
Through the battles over the years, Du You has gained a thorough understanding of his various skills. Although he might not yet fully unleash the complete power of all his skills, his overall combat techniques aren’t problematic.
It was precisely due to the enhancement of Du You’s combat abilities that he realized he could rank at mid-level among ninth-tier sages. Of course, this doesn’t count his family and pets; otherwise, his ranking would be even higher.
"That’s right, but this time it’s a big action; the influence is significant enough. My doppelganger is preparing to raise the territory’s tier to eight; after this, it will be much more convenient for the Earth’s will to enter, or for any other things that may happen."
As the level rises, the Earth’s invasive influence also deepens.
Although everything is silent and even the world will of the Beastman world hasn’t realized anything, such formless erosion is fundamentally irreversible. Worlds targeted by Earth rarely remain fully intact.
Du You took the two sisters once more to the void.
Meanwhile, within the Beastman world, many eyes focused on the border area between the south and other places.
In these areas, Kobolds are continuously expanding, though not by attacking everywhere. Instead, they constantly find wastelands to settle or look for their fellow tribesmen, accepting employment from others, and so on.
To other races, these guys are born warriors, especially with the enhancement in thinking, coupled with various technologies and the support of priests, their potential in war fully erupts.
Although some have proposed to curb the development of Kobolds, all such proposals have been dismissed.
Even those eighth-tier powerhouses are curious to see how far the Kobolds can develop. If strong individuals can consistently emerge among them, it would be beneficial for the entire Beastman community.
Upon reaching the eighth tier, they have already broken free from the shackles of states and races; all Beastmen are practically the same in their eyes.
Moreover, the Kobolds behave very peacefully, neither exterminating other races. In fact, with the presence of Kobolds, the safety of other major tribes has significantly increased, and their population keeps rising steadily.
As for battle opportunities, those truly wishing to improve never fear lacking chances for combat.
If nothing else works, hiring Kobolds from enemy tribes works just fine, which is beneficial. It not only enhances one’s strength but also reduces the number of Kobolds, a win-win situation.
On this day, the fringe battles continued when suddenly the sky brightened, followed by the burst of colorful radiance.
Everyone just gave it a glance and paid it no mind. Over the years, colorful sky coverings have become so common that Beastmen consider it a natural phenomenon.
Only those at the seventh tier and above can sense the tremors of the world law and know what’s happening.
That guy is out experimenting with skills again, subtly challenging them. Many Beastmen are quite annoyed by Du You’s persistent provocations over the years, but considering his power, they can only suppress their anger. Haven’t you noticed that their own god-king isn’t showing any signs? This is proof enough.
Even the world will’s attention was drawn by Du You’s attack.
Now the only ones focusing on those colorful lights are those in more intensely lit areas. Because they know that every time colorful light bursts forth, some good things always fall out from them.
In places where the light is intense, just waiting below, the probability is quite high. Over the years, many Beastmen and even Magical Beasts have benefited, so how could they give up these situations?
Those further away don’t even consider it; the time for such light bursts is uncertain, and being too far means there’s no chance.
Those closer have already started demarcating territories and waiting. Nevertheless, some remain vigilant around because they know once someone doesn’t get anything and sees others benefiting, battles will inevitably break out. They are Beastmen, and many times Beastmen aren’t very reasonable.
