613: Hidden World

“I’ve seen it?”

“Why don’t I know about it?”

Hearing Yang Daoming’s words, Wang Chen, who had not yet recovered from his shock, was utterly bewildered.

Today was the first time he had heard that the Blue Star World’s Origin had been corroded by dark power, and that once three years passed, everyone on Blue Star would be finished, turning into monsters and demons.

But now, Yang Daoming said he had witnessed that kind of dark scene.

This left him very confused.

How could he not remember having such an experience…

“Hmm?”

As he was thinking, Wang Chen’s eyes suddenly widened.

He suddenly remembered the three eerie Nightmare Demons he encountered during his Six-revolution professional advancement mission.

Their bodies were a mixture of demonic and human aura; normally, they lived with reason like ordinary people, but once provoked, they would transform into terrifying demons.

Previously, Wang Chen had merely thought these Nightmare Demons were a new species of demon not yet discovered by Blue Star Awakeners.

But now, combining what Yang Daoming had just said, a guess surfaced in his mind.

Those Nightmare Demons were very likely the creatures that had transformed after the world’s Origin was completely corroded by dark power.

That’s why, when using the Investigation Skill to check their attribute information, their type appeared as ‘Mutation,’ which had never been seen before.

“It seems you’ve figured it out.”

Seeing the expression on Wang Chen’s face, Yang Daoming nodded and said softly:

“Don’t doubt it; what you’re thinking is the correct answer.”

“But…”

“Marshal Yang, how did you know that I would encounter such a situation during my Awakener advancement mission?”

Wang Chen suppressed the shock in his heart, his voice somewhat urgent:

“No one has ever completed a Hell difficulty Awakener advancement mission, and this is only my second time. Normally, besides the Awakener who accepts the mission, no one else could possibly know the situation within the mission.”

“That is true.”

Yang Daoming nodded.

“But you also said ‘normally,’ and a Six-revolution professional advancement mission doesn’t fall under that category.”

“You should know that when Awakeners undergo Awakener advancement, the mission content and difficulty they receive are random. Few people receive the same Awakener advancement mission, even for Hell difficulty missions.”

“However, this situation only applies below Six-Turn. For Hell difficulty Awakener advancement missions at Six-Turn and above, their content is exactly the same.”

“Don’t object yet.”

Seeing Wang Chen about to say something, Yang Daoming waved his hand and said:

“This is what we have concluded after dozens of experiments.”

“Before you, twenty-four 5th Rank Awakeners received Hell difficulty Awakener advancement missions when advancing to Six-Turn. The mission name was the same: Purification!”

“And besides them, thirty-two Six-revolution professionals received Hell difficulty Awakener advancement missions when advancing to Seven-Turn. Their mission name was also Purification!”

“In the Early Stage of this situation appearing, the higher-ups initiated tracking. Although they couldn’t provide assistance when Awakeners were undergoing their Awakener advancement missions, they did gain some information from them.”

“The location for every Hell difficulty Awakener advancement mission at Six-Turn and above is a fragment left behind by a world completely corroded by dark power.”

“This is a conclusion reached unanimously by several Saints after ten years of tireless effort in the Void Realm.”

“They salvaged dozens of such world fragments.”

After Yang Daoming finished speaking, silence lingered in the study for a long time.

It wasn’t just Wang Chen.

Even Lin Feng was stunned.

He had never imagined that the higher-ups had such a deep understanding of Hell difficulty Awakener advancement missions.

“Marshal Yang!”

After a moment of silence, Wang Chen raised his hand.

“But even so, we shouldn’t be completely powerless to resist, should we?”

“We are now able to leave Blue Star and travel to other worlds, and even enter the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, the center of the All Heavens and Myriad Realms.”

“Many races live there; we should be able to migrate there as well.”

He somewhat couldn’t understand what inevitable connection existed between the world’s Origin being completely corroded and living beings turning into monsters and demons.

If the world was shattered, they could go to other worlds, or even move directly to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield.

Although Blue Star was not considered powerful among the myriad races of the Heavens, Wang Chen believed it was still possible to establish a habitat and sustain tens of billions of people.

“Normally, that would be true.”

Regarding the question Wang Chen raised, Yang Daoming nodded, indicating some agreement.

“Many of the races living in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield migrated there because their Origin world fell and shattered.”

“But…”

At this point, Yang Dao Ming paused, then changed the subject.

“We are different from other worlds.”

“The races living in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, the power they possess, has been developed little by little over tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years.”

“Even if they change locations, as long as energy exists, they can continue to climb to higher Realms.”

“But we are different…”

“Our power is bestowed by the Blue Star World’s Origin. Every Awakener can be said to be one with the world’s Origin.”

“You’ve been to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, and you’ve been to medium-sized worlds, so you should know that no race can, like us Awakeners, increase their strength without Cultivating, just by killing monsters and demons.”

“There is gain and there is loss.”

“If the Blue Star World’s Origin ceases to exist, we will also lose our Foundation of existence.”

Yang Daoming sighed, his tone incredibly serious:

“The power we possess was created by the Blue Star World’s Origin for its own salvation, combining with the dark power, when the Demon Calamity erupted and it itself was corroded by dark power.”

“This power gave everyone the chance to become a Awakener, allowing us to survive the darkest era and develop to where we are today, establishing a firm foothold in the Myriad Heavens Battlefield.”

“It can be said that without this power, without the emergence of Awakeners, Blue Star would already be a wasteland, and none of us would exist.”

“We have enjoyed the protection of this power for seven hundred years, and now, it is time for us to give back.”

After Yang Daoming finished speaking, silence once again lingered in the study for a long time.

Wang Chen and Lin Feng lowered their heads, somewhat unable to accept this brutal reality.

At this moment, Wang Chen’s mind inexplicably recalled a sentence spoken by Legion Commander Xiongying of the Mountain Moving Legion when he was in the Huiguang World.

The Awakener system gave Blue Star unparalleled war potential, but at the same time, it was also a shackles for everyone on Blue Star, a restraint!

“You don’t need to worry too much about this.”

After waiting for a moment, Yang Daoming saw that Wang Chen and Lin Feng were still silent, and said with a hint of relief in his tone:

“We have already found a solution and are working towards it.”

“Blue Star will not perish!”
