FVN Chapter 59 Headquarters
Chapter 59 Headquarters
Heaven and Earth as the furnace, the human body as the placenta, a thousand hammerings and a hundred refinements, forging fine steel!
To be tempered by the heavens is to become a Celestial.
Once a Martial Artist's True Body becomes Flawless, it can lock in its own Essence, further nourish and refine the Divine Intent, and ultimately transform the Divine Intent, replacing the will of Heaven with one's own, drawing upon Heaven's Intent, and then using the power of Heaven and Earth to forge oneself.
Just like hammering an iron ingot, repeated forging and tempering, to truly become a body as strong as steel, a superhuman realm.
After completing this grand realm of cultivation, Martial Artists...
Will truly possess the ability to ignore the damage from blades and guns.
Even if shot at point-blank range with a machine gun, they could stand tall and proud, unscathed, forcefully advancing against the bullets' kinetic energy.
"In the ancient setting of my world, a Grandmaster, fighting one against a hundred, could break through a thousand troops. A Martial Saint, within an army of ten thousand, could move freely. With Divine Intent, a volley of thousands of arrows would not touch a single feather. Reaching Primordial Chaos Flawless, with inexhaustible strength, one could destroy a nation alone..."
Alkaid's thoughts were in motion.
But whether Grandmaster or Martial Saint, even a Primordial Chaos Martial Saint, the ancients still had the ability to kill them.
Ordinary arrows could not pierce the flesh of a Martial Saint, but if replaced with more powerful war machines like large crossbows, heavy hammers, and giant axes, it would still be possible to kill a Primordial Chaos Martial Saint.
Of course, this is the most extreme case.
Truly, if a Primordial Chaos Martial Saint lived in the ancient times of his world, as long as he did not wreak havoc on the world, with his terrifying strength and deterrence, he could easily gather countless followers and establish an empire.
As long as he lived, this empire would never decline.
But if a Celestial were allowed to exist...
Even if it were a Seventh Rank, just having forged Heaven and Earth Furnace, the Celestial would still bring endless despair to the entire world.
Undying!
With the technological capacity of the ancients, such a monster could not be killed at all!
Their bone density, muscle toughness, detoxification ability, and digestive capacity made them truly invincible.
He was both a True Immortal and a Buddha, both a Divine King and a Demon Lord.
In the entire world, even if he did whatever he wanted, the countless beings and billions of living creatures could not oppose him even slightly.
Any resistance in the face of the natural disasters he casually caused with a gesture was utterly futile.
Therefore, many accounts described such lifeforms as...
"Celestial Descends."
Alkaid murmured to himself.
Zong Yan, who had just finished a call, heard Alkaid's words, slightly lifted his head, and with a smile said, "Celestial... This is what many places call the practitioners beyond the Seventh Layer of Demon refinement. A Celestial... In our world, possesses the power to destroy and overturn any country besides the Snow Dragon and Red Star."
"Hmm."
Alkaid responded.
Even the strongest weapons need a person to wield them.
A Primordial Chaos Martial Saint upon achieving the Flawless True Body, completely locks in their own Essence, further nourishes the spirit, and refines the Divine Intent, thus reaching the state where one's heart replaces that of Heaven.
And even without refinement to the extent of replacing Heaven's heart with one's own, Divine Intent can still easily manipulate the thoughts of a dozen or several dozen ordinary beings, confusing their will.
A dozen or several dozen people basically represent the entire upper echelon of a country.
He just needs to control the upper echelons of these countries to control a country and let this country fiercely contend with another.
After that contention?
No matter!
Continue with another country.
So, Zong Yan's mention of a Celestial being able to destroy any country other than Snow Dragon and Red Star is rather modest.
A Primordial Chaos Martial Saint at the peak of the Sixth Rank can do it.
However, these names weren't very formal, resembling more code names than actual names.
"This is the ranking list."
Zong Yan noticed Alkaid's gaze and smiled, "The Rebirth Society has over thirty headquarters and more than four hundred branches globally, plus more than four thousand observation points. Each year, just from Dayu Country alone, we admit dozens of members.
This term, in particular, there are more than three hundred people, every one of them at least at the level of martial master, they are truly the young geniuses of the Martial Arts World. Having a ranking list to stimulate their competitive spirit and make them understand there are always people better than them is essential."
He didn't mention the specifics of how many headquarters and branches there were, indicating a sense of confidentiality.
"Once your information is entered, it will also appear on this leaderboard, of course, under a code name."
Zong Yan continued, repeating once more, "It's not that our Rebirth Society is afraid of the Stellar Sanctum. No matter how overbearing the Stellar Sanctum is, what they do cannot stand the light of day. If they want to get something done, they can only act sneakily. However, if they get ahold of the names and start wooing people from the list, it would be extremely detrimental to our development."
"I understand," said Alkaid.
In his exchange with Zong Yan along the way, he also came to understand the nature of the Rebirth Society.
Middle East countries define the Rebirth Society as a civilian organization, but in reality, the support for the Rebirth Society matches that of front-line combat units.
They truly have the money and the manpower.
In this case, Red Star often finds it passive to have the Stellar Sanctum under their command clash with the Rebirth Society, except when deploying military forces.
And once military forces are deployed, the nature of the situation changes.
The Snow Dragon Federation would not stand idly by.
Therefore, for nearly the last eight to ten years, the Rebirth Society and the Stellar Sanctum have been going at it with each other.
This achievement has led the dozens of countries in the Middle East to increase their financial and manpower investments in the Rebirth Society.
However, the inability to form a dominating advantage over a long time has taught the Stellar Sanctum a lesson.
They came up with the Rebirth Society.
Although it has not become very large due to its short establishment period, without the "Red Star people's" official status, they act without restraint.
Moreover, with the introduction of "Divine Blood" to corrupt the middle and upper levels of various countries, under the ideology that "Benefits go to the Royal Family, but one's body is their own," the Rebirth Society has grown extremely quickly.
Especially in East Continent, bordering Red Star, in the last year or two under the relentless pressure of the Rebirth Society and the Stellar Sanctum, the circumstances for the Rebirth Society have become somewhat difficult.
This is also why Zong Yan dared to decisively eliminate those Demonic Soldiers from the Rebirth Society without hesitation.
Lost in thought, Alkaid had already been led by Zong Yan to a closed-door meeting room.
Outside the meeting room, several people were standing guard.
Alkaid glanced over and found, without exception, they were all like Zhang Tianji, grandmasters cultivated at the expense of activating life's potential.
This scene stirred something in his heart.
The Rebirth Society had the Ten Thousand Demons Blood Soul Banner for creating demons...
What about the Rebirth Society?
What kind of Immortal Soldier Demon Weapons did they hold?
Soon, the door opened.
The meeting room was completely sealed off.
As Zong Yan and Alkaid entered, and with Liu Tong closing the door behind them, a woman appearing to be in her forties seated at the side of the meeting room turned her gaze towards them.
"Indeed very young," she commented.
"And his strength is quite remarkable, as can be seen from his battles against demonic creatures more than once," Zong Yan said softly to Alkaid as he introduced the woman.
Fang Lu.
Like him, one of the three in charge of Dayu headquarters.
"The records show a total of sixteen demons killed from the Ten Thousand Demons Blood Soul Banner, including three Fourth Rank demons," Fang Lu noted. "Zhou's defeat at his hands is no injustice."
"That's why, Director Fang, training Alkaid as the next 'Heaven's Chosen' is absolutely the best choice."
