82: Returning to base to prepare and gather allies, we will explore the world and practice joint attacks.

The golden light on the Dominator Platform gradually faded, and the Allied Army returned along the original path. The Dominator Record in Lin Chen's palm shimmered with a faint creation light.

Nian Xue sat on A Qing's dragon back, dangling the remnants of an inheritance pearl: "Daddy, are there glowing flowers in the Creation World?"

A Qing spread its wings and soared over the origin grass: "Definitely! I'll help my little sister pick some, to wear in her hair!"

Clear Snow expanded her Ice and Snow Domain, the cold air sweeping away the lingering mist: "Five miles ahead, there's a Creation Spring that can replenish Origin!"

Arriving at the spring, everyone gathered around to drink. Their Origin concentration slightly increased:

Lin Chen 47.5% (Post-Origin Realm) → 48%; Clear Snow 91.5% → 92%; Nian Xue 67% → 67.5%;

A Qing 47% → 47.5%; Star Spirit Clan Leader 48% → 48.5%; Dragon Clan Dragon Guard Leader 49% → 49.5%.

Returning to the Stronghold, each clan immediately took action: the Metal Clan smelted dominator crystals to forge creation cannons, the Spirit Plant Clan refined creation pills.

The Stone Spirit Clan reinforced the Stronghold walls, embedding creation crystal fragments: "Defense increased by ninety percent, can withstand Early Stage Creation Realm impacts!"

The Sea Spirit Clan made creation breathing talismans: "Allows breathing in Creation World waters for ten hours, each person gets three!"

The Star Spirit Clan Leader raised a crystal stone to transmit a message: "Sending word to all allied clans, gather here in five days to charge into the Creation World!"

Lin Chen summoned the clan chiefs: "The Guardian Beasts in the Creation World have reached the Middle Stage of the Creation Realm. We need to practice new combined attack techniques!"

The Dragon Clan Dragon Guard Leader proposed: "My clan and the Elf Clan will practice the 'golden wings Light Arrow Technique' to bombard beast cores from range!"

Clear Snow added: "I and the Sea Spirit Clan will practice the 'Ice and Snow Water Curtain Formation' to freeze beasts and block attacks, protecting the team!"

The Metal Clan Chief said: "My clan and the Stone Spirit Clan will practice the 'Cannon Shield Rebound Technique'. Cannons bombard, shields rebound, doubling the power!"

First day, combined attack training:

The Dragon Clan's golden wings resonated with the Elf Clan's arrows. Golden light arrows struck the target, shattering it to dust;

Clear Snow's ice and snow enveloped the Sea Spirit Clan's water curtain, freezing the dummy beast, the water curtain blocking dummy attacks;

The Metal Clan's cannons bombarded the Stone Spirit Clan's shields. The shields rebounded the light cannons, blasting distant rocks to pieces.

Nian Xue and A Qing practiced coordination: A Qing flew carrying Nian Xue, Nian Xue threw light balls, accurately hitting the bullseye. Concentration 67.5% → 68%.

The Spirit Plant Clan refined fifteen batches of creation pills: "After taking, boosts Origin by sixty percent, lasts two hours. Store in the military supply depot!"

The Metal Clan forged thirty creation cannons: "Cannon muzzles embedded with creation crystals, can pierce Early Stage Creation Realm scales!"

Second day, Realm stabilization:

Everyone absorbed the remaining dominator crystal cores. Origin concentration increased again:

Lin Chen 48% → 50%; Clear Snow 92% → 94%; Nian Xue 68% → 69%;

A Qing 47.5% → 49.5%; Star Spirit Clan Leader 48.5% → 50.5%; Dragon Clan Dragon Guard Leader 49.5% → 51.5%;

Supreme Clan Leader 60% → 62%; Spirit Plant Clan Chief 16% → 18%; Stone Spirit Clan Leader 96% → 97%.

Afternoon, allies arrived one after another:

The Crystal Spirit Clan brought one hundred and fifty bottles of creation liquid, the Wood Spirit Clan carried eighty sacred plants, the Transcendence Clan carried creation purple crystal shields.

The Star Spirit Clan Leader counted the personnel: "Total assembled: 600 people, 30 at the Origin Realm, 180 at the Transcendence Level, the rest at the Legendary Rank!"

Lin Chen stood on the high platform, creation light condensing in his palm: "In five days, we charge into the Creation World, seize the creation core, and break through to the Creation Realm!"

The crowd below shouted in unison: "Charge into the Creation World! Break through to the Creation Realm!" The sound wave made the Stronghold's crystal lamps tremble slightly.

Third day, inventory check:

The Spirit Plant Clan prepared one hundred and fifty batches of healing pills, the Metal Clan set up fifty creation cannons, the Stone Spirit Clan made eighty crystal shields.

The Sea Spirit Clan checked breathing talismans and Detoxification Talismans, ensuring each person was fully equipped; the Transcendence Clan reinforced the purple crystal shields, embedding creation patterns.

Nian Xue helped the Spirit Plant Clan dry sacred plant leaves: "Sister, can dried leaves be used for Alchemy? I'll help you turn them!"

The Spirit Plant Clan Alchemist smiled: "Yes, you're so capable, little sister. I'll let you taste the medicine first when it's done!"

A Qing practiced Dragon Breath with the Dragon Clan Dragon Guards. golden wings slapped out streaks of creation light, attracting young allies to watch.

Fourth day, tactical simulation:

Lin Chen spread out a map of the Creation World: "The world is divided into three sections—Creation Plain, Creation Canyon, Creation Platform!"

The Star Spirit Clan Leader pointed at the map: "The plain has creation beast herds (Transcendence Level Peak), the canyon has a creation jiao (Origin Realm Peak), the platform has a Guardian Beast (Creation Realm Middle Stage)!"

"Divide into three teams:" Lin Chen ordered,

"vanguard team: Wood Spirit Clan, Sea Spirit Clan, Transcendence Clan, led by Clear Snow, clear the plain beasts, scout the canyon's situation;

main force team: Metal Clan, Stone Spirit Clan, Dragon Clan, Supreme Clan, led by me, fight the Canyon Jiao, attack the Creation Platform;

Support Team: Crystal Spirit Clan, Elf Clan, Star Spirit Clan, led by the Star Spirit Clan Leader, replenish energy, heal injuries, protect supply safety!"

The clan chiefs accepted their orders. The vanguard team practiced "obstacle-clearing rapid attack techniques", the main force team honed "core-striking combined attack techniques", the Support Team prepared "emergency energy replenishment packs".

Evening, Lin Chen inspected the training results:

The vanguard team's obstacle-clearing speed increased by thirty percent, the main force team's combined attack power increased by seventy percent, the Support Team's energy replenishment efficiency increased by fifty percent.

Clear Snow handed over a creation pill: "Husband, take a pill to stabilize your Realm. You'll need stamina for scouting tomorrow!"

Lin Chen took the pill, 50% → 50.5%; Clear Snow after taking 94% → 94.5%; Nian Xue 69% → 69.5%.

Fifth day, early morning, the vanguard team scouted the path:

Clear Snow led the team out, expanding her Ice and Snow Domain: "We'll first scout the Creation World entrance, return within two hours!"

Lin Chen cautioned: "If you encounter strong beasts, don't fight recklessly. Send a creation signal, I'll teleport to support!"

The vanguard team entered the world. The Creation World's Origin Qi rushed over them, concentration over fifteen times that of the Ruler Realm.

After traveling three miles, they encountered five creation beasts, bodies crystal white, Aura at Transcendence Level Late Stage Peak.

"Clear obstacles!" Clear Snow ordered. Wood Spirit Clan vines entangled the beasts, Sea Spirit Clan water doused them, Transcendence Clan shields rammed them. The beasts turned into light points.

Obtained five crystal cores. Clear Snow absorbed half a core, 94.5% → 95%; Wood Spirit Clan Chief 18% → 19%.

Continuing forward five miles, the Creation World entrance appeared: two creation stone lions guarded a Golden Gate, the lintel inscribed "Creation World".

Clear Snow used Divine Thought to probe behind the gate: "The entrance requires three crystals to resonate—dominator crystal, creation crystal, inheritance pearl!"

After transmitting the message to Lin Chen, the vanguard team retreated three miles, set up a alert zone (warning formation), and waited for the main force team.

Lin Chen led the main force team out. The Metal Clan's creation cannons mounted on carts, the Stone Spirit Clan's crystal shields carried on shoulders, their Aura majestic.

Nian Xue sat on A Qing's dragon back, holding a creation pearl: "A Qing, are we almost at the entrance? I want to see the creation flowers soon!"

A Qing spread its wings and accelerated: "Almost! Past the entrance, we'll see lots of glowing flowers!"

Traveling three miles, they met up with the vanguard team. Lin Chen took out the three crystals: "Embed in the gate slots, inject Origin, open the gate!"

Origin from each clan poured in. The Golden Gate's creation patterns lit up, slowly opening, revealing a light of Creation Realm Peak inside.

Clear Snow led the vanguard team in first: "We'll clear the plain beasts. main force team follows. Support Team guards the entrance!"

Lin Chen nodded: "Be careful! Many beast herds on the plain. Don't scatter the team, use Divine Thought to link up!"

The vanguard team stepped through the gate, enveloped in faint golden light; the main force team raised cannons in alert (alert), waiting for the all-clear signal.

Sunlight shone on the Golden Gate, reflecting the determined faces of the Allied Army. The gate to the Creation Realm had slowly opened.
