138: When the royal army pacifies the Central Plains...

Except for living creatures, dust, and stellar fragments, almost nothing else existed.

Even if one took a chair out of a space ring, there would be nowhere to place it; it would only float in the Void Realm.

But now, he genuinely felt solid ground, as if a transparent chair was placed on transparent earth.

Upon closer inspection, he found that the ground beneath his feet was also truly solid land.

Could this be a Divine Domain similar to the nanshan pure land?

The Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness waited until Xu Le, who had been touching everything left and right, finally calmed down, before suppressing his excitement and asking in the calmest tone:

"Has my Great Zhou accumulated enough power to destroy the Abyss?"

Although the Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness was very restrained, his hands were trembling slightly, and his voice was also shaky.

"No." Xu Le shook his head.

The Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness was somewhat disappointed, but not overly so, as Xu Le being thrown into the Void Realm also indicated that the Great Zhou's war was unresolved and the Demonic Creatures had not been eliminated.

"Then how many cities has my Great Zhou recovered? Has the population recovered to the Peak period's fifty billion?"

Xu Le hesitated, recalling a line of poetry he had once learned: 'The day the royal army pacifies the Central Plains, do not forget to tell your father at the family sacrifice.'

This old man, nearly 170 years old, had been stranded in this world for countless years, yet he still worried about Blue Star.

Unfortunately, in recent years, let alone conquering the Abyss or recovering cities, they even lost one of the most fundamental Giant Cities.

He even felt that the Demonic Creatures were holding back, no, they were releasing a flood; with the strength of the Demonic Creatures in the Fallen Zone, if they launched a major assault, humanity might only be able to retain three Giant Cities.

The Aristocratic Families are ignorant of the shame of national subjugation; they only focus on seizing resources. How hateful!

"Could it be that not even Thirteenth City has been recovered?"

The Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness suddenly stood up, and his slightly yellowish eyes burst forth with soul-stirring brilliance.

That gaze was like a Laser Eye, capable of shooting out beams that could obliterate people.

Xu Le shook his head and directly revealed the answer.

"Currently, Tenth City has fallen, and even Ninth City is precarious. The God Descent Cult harbors malicious intentions, and if not for a fortunate Opportunity, it might already be gone."

"What about the Royal Family? What about the Aristocratic Families? Where is the Sharp Blade that boasted of thrusting straight into the Abyss to decapitate the mastermind? Where is the Great Wall Guard Army?"

Xu Le briefly recounted what he knew. However, he was merely a freshman in college and didn't understand many things.

He only guessed that the Great Zhou Royal Family was being severely suppressed by the Aristocratic Families, otherwise the Censor-in-Chief of the Heaven Patrol Guard, the Emperor's Personal Army, shouldn't be someone from an Aristocratic Family.

The Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness completely broke down, wailing to the sky: "Muddle-headed! Muddle-headed! Even if Li Longji were resurrected, he wouldn't give this position to an Aristocratic Family! How is this different from offering one's neck for slaughter and willingly becoming another's blade? This trash, even if he dies and his clan is exterminated, he still harms the people of the world. What crime have the common people committed? What crime have the common people committed!"

This was a pure, patriotic loyal minister.

Xu Le secretly assigned him a label.

"Eighty-six years and 132 days of enduring hardship, only to wait for such a result! This old man is unwilling!"

The nearly 170-year-old man made no attempt to hide his emotions and immediately burst into tears.

Several Void Creatures nearby were infected by the emotion and cried along, making Xu Le feel uneasy too.

Ten minutes later.

Only then did the Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness wipe away his tears: "Young friend, you must be laughing at me. I lost control of my emotions for a moment and behaved improperly. Please don't take offense."

He took out a small tea table, placed it beside him, pulled out a treasured box, took out nine tea leaves, and put them into a cup.

He then used the 'Water Ball' Skill from Water Spells and the 'Red Hot Flame' Skill from Fire Spells, managing to brew a pot of tea.

Wafts of fragrance drifted out. Xu Le no longer held back and took a small sip. Amidst the slight bitterness of the tea, a rich aroma assaulted his nose, mixed with a hint of dampness.

Even items in a space ring will gradually decay after a long time.

"Wait, how can there be tea leaves in this world?"

"Could it be brought from Blue Star? Tea leaves over eighty years old, expired for so long, hiss..."

Seeing Xu Le's shock, the Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness thought he was captivated by the tea leaves. He stroked his silvery-white beard, looking quite smug.

"These are tea leaves I brought from Blue Star. Are they palatable?"

"I haven't researched tea," Xu Le shook his head, then added, "But I have a jar here, gifted by a friend."

That friend was naturally Tang Qianchuan. Since the space ring was so large, he had to carry some treasures to enjoy at any time. Now, Xu Le naturally benefited.

Xu Le didn't want to drink expired tea, so he took out his tea to share... Half an hour later.

The Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness put down his cup, satisfied.

"I haven't properly enjoyed tea since arriving in this world eighty years ago. I truly have to thank you this time."

"Wandering for so many years, I finally learned some interesting Abilities. Want to learn?"

Xu Le's eyes lit up. The Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness could teach Skills, and he had over seventy Skill slots. If he learned them all, it would be Heaven-Defying!

If he could conjure a chair and fix himself in place, he wouldn't have to worry about the void wind anymore.

Seeing Xu Le look at the chair he was sitting on again, the Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness understood his intention.

"Watch my movements carefully."

After speaking, the Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness extended two fingers, drew a mysterious diagram in the air, and then rapidly tapped the space repeatedly.

Xu Le widened his eyes. Even with nearly 20,000 points of Mental Energy, he couldn't see clearly.

The speed was too fast; any so-called God's Hand was completely inferior compared to him.

A single glance revealed only afterimages.

Three minutes later.

The Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness stopped and smiled slightly: "Did you learn it?"

Xu Le was speechless: 'Learn what? I couldn't even see it clearly.'

The System prompt suddenly sounded in his ear.

[Ding, the Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness is using the 'Personal Instruction' Skill on you. You carefully comprehended and successfully grasped the 'Space Lock' Skill.]

[Space Lock]

Consumes 1000+ mana to lock a section of space and fabricate it into the form you envision.

Xu Le was stunned. The Great Teacher of Supreme Goodness's movements appeared in his mind slowed down countless times. Every movement sped up or slowed down according to his thoughts.

After watching three times, he subconsciously started moving along.

Mobilizing the mana in his body, his fingers rapidly tapped the air, and soon, a treasured sword was outlined by him.

Although it was a transparent, invisible sword, he could sense its shape.

Not only that, Xu Le also sensed that the surroundings were structures resembling a palace, and the chair he was sitting on was quite ancient and grand in style.

Xu Le casually swung the Void Treasured Sword in his hand and cast a 'Divine Eye' on it.

[Weapon] Void Sword

[Grade] legendary grade

[Usage Requirement] Possesses Elementary Space Ability

[Equipment Trait] Sharpness +800

He took out a legendary grade armor from space, which could increase Defense by 600 points and Health by 2,000 points.

He slashed down with the sword, and the legendary grade armor in his hand immediately turned into fragments.

It must be said that even a casually fabricated Weapon was superior to most legendary grade equipment.

As long as the opponent's Defense Value was lower than the Sharpness Value, it was guaranteed to destroy one piece of equipment per swing, with no survivors.

Moreover, this Skill can also be fixed, so he hardly needed to worry about the void wind anymore.
