143: Chapter 143 Upgrade! Moving Towards the Mid-Stage of Spiritual Qi Revival.

When the blade was held against the neck of the Necromancer God Lord, this long-haired one, he finally realized at this moment that he had lost his divinity and had been reduced to a mortal body.

Seeing that gleaming blade, he had never once thought that a god could die.

But now, Hu Zi Mei's blade was pressed against his snow-white neck; the blade sliced through his skin, and beads of blood dripped onto his collarbone.

Xu Xuan wasn't joking; was he really going to slaughter a god?

Facing death, the Necromancer God Lord, this tall, black-haired one, finally felt a trace of fear.

"I..."

But as a former God Lord, his remaining dignity still supported him.

"Come on, I am not afraid of death."

The Necromancer God Lord closed his eyes, waiting for Hu Zi Mei's executioner's blade to fall.

But now, Xu Xuan changed his mind.

"I've changed my mind. The Goddess of Pain, Phil, will bear the sins of the God Lord. If you, Phil, do not build the Necromancer Island well, this cleaver will fall on your neck."

When Phil heard Xu Xuan say this, she was moved to tears.

"Thank you! Thank you, Master, for sparing our lives. Lifa, hurry and thank the Master."

The Goddess of Pain, Phil, kept signaling the Necromancer God Lord, urging him to thank him quickly.

The God Lord's mind was blank; he was stunned.

What did that mean?

His crimes, to be borne by Phil?

If he couldn't complete Xu Xuan's task, Phil's head would be chopped off?

This?

Hearing this, the Necromancer God Lord suddenly looked up: "My affairs have nothing to do with my subordinates! Do not make things difficult for her; if you have any issues, come at me."

"You do not have the qualifications to bargain with me. The defeated have no right to determine their own fate."

Saying this, Xu Xuan waved his hand: "Send them to the Necromancer Island."

Watching the two goddesses being pushed and shoved out of the courtyard by Hu Zi Mei, Xu Xuan took a sip of juice unhurriedly.

Are they pitiful?

No.

This is the War of Ten Thousand Races; if you harbor a saintly heart, it is absolutely a dead end.

What if the one who lost this battle was Xu Xuan?

Then he, Xu Xuan, would have been turned into a puppet doll by the Necromancer God Lord and stored in his locker.

If he had been defeated, his fate would be ten thousand times worse than theirs.

They were just suffering a little grievance now, and they couldn't stand it?

And now, he could play with them slowly. As for the former Necromancer God Lord, Xu Xuan had plenty of ways to make them slowly become obedient and docile.

Isn't that right?

He had just given the order: if the Necromancer Island was not built well, he would chop off the Goddess of Pain.

The Necromancer God Lord was a bit protective of his own; his subordinates were his weakness, which could be exploited slowly.

With the matter of the Necromancer Island arranged, he sat on the sofa, lazily checking the other rewards.

5 divine general cards, 10,000 intermediate spirit mines; these were all very important.

"5 divine general cards—should I use them now? Or keep them as a trump card?"

Don't forget, when a divine general is summoned for the first time, he can be made to appear anywhere.

Just think, if you took these 5 divine general cards and airdropped 5 divine generals next to an opponent, you could directly behead the opposing Lord...

"Hmm, the 5 divine general cards can be kept as a trump card; after all, I am about to upgrade to the next era."

Saying this, Xu Xuan looked at the 10,000 units of intermediate spirit mine on the screen.

[You have met the conditions to upgrade to the next era. Consume 5,000 intermediate spirit mines to upgrade to the mid-stage of Spiritual Qi Recovery. Do you wish to upgrade?]

[After upgrading, the combat power of all divine generals will be unlocked to the mid-stage Peak Realm, gaining the terrifying combat power to move mountains and drain seas!]

Currently, it is the early stage of Spiritual Qi Recovery, and the strength of the divine generals is generally still relatively weak, a bit like super-powered individuals.

They can fly to the sky and burrow into the earth, but they can still be wounded by bullets, although it is only a minor injury.

And after unlocking the mid-stage of Spiritual Qi Recovery... at least everyone will be a Homelander; being invulnerable to blades and guns is just the most basic level.

The system says they can move mountains and drain seas; this ability is truly terrifying on the battlefield—it really is one against ten thousand.

"Upgrade. But will upgrading trigger new events?"

Xu Xuan flipped to the next page, and sure enough! A [Prompt] appeared on the system.

[Prompt: Transitioning from the early stage to the mid-stage of Spiritual Qi Recovery, the people in your territory will gradually become stronger. This entire process lasts for 7 days.]

[Danger Warning: After 7 days, when you reach the mid-stage of Spiritual Qi Recovery, brand new races will enter the Lord Continent and join the War of Ten Thousand Races.]

Seeing this prompt, Xu Xuan did not hesitate too much.

Upgrade to the mid-stage of Spiritual Qi Recovery early, get the rewards early. If he doesn't develop, other Lords will.

Right now, there are probably a batch of Lords who have started searching for spirit mines to upgrade to the early stage of Spiritual Qi Recovery.

If he doesn't upgrade, his leading advantage will be caught up by other Lords.

There are over seven billion people globally; there are many smart people.

They saw what spirit mines looked like on the Chessboard of the Gods, and they also understood the importance of spirit mines.

Xu Xuan's hand tapped the screen — [Upgrade!]

[You have consumed 5,000 units of intermediate spirit mine. Your territory begins to experience Spiritual Qi Recovery, reaching its peak in seven days.]

Following this.

The global announcement also sounded.

[Global Announcement: Great Xia Lord Xu Xuan is in the second stage of Spiritual Qi Recovery, moving towards the mid-stage!]

Seeing this announcement, Lords around the world were not surprised.

Everyone had seen Xu Xuan's brilliant performance on the chessboard—the strategies like luring the tiger away from the mountain, the ambush techniques.

In the end, Xu Xuan even used divine general cards to block the Necromancer God Lord who wanted to escape; all sorts of slick operations left a deep impression on the global Lords.

Especially locking up the Necromancer God Lord like a dog in front of the gods—that really brought glory to the human race!

This time, when Xu Xuan upgraded, the emotions of all the Lords in the global chat channel were particularly calm.

[Global Chat Channel]

[Zhou Wu (Great Xia): Congratulations, Brother Xuan!]

[Zhou Mei (Great Xia): Congratulations! Thanks to Brother Xuan's operations, we know what spirit mines look like now.]

[Li Fei (Great Xia): Is everyone upgrading to the Spiritual Qi Recovery era? What a coincidence, I also dug up spirit mines in my territory.]

[Jack (USA): Congratulations! Mr. Xu's battle on the chessboard opened our eyes.]

[Lyon (France): You are the hero of all humanity, my idol!]

[Miyamoto Takeshi (Japan): Congratulations, congratulations.]

[Park Jeong-ji (South Korea): Congratulations, simida!]

People from all over the world sent their congratulations, as if overnight, the global Lords had put aside their hatred for each other and were sincerely blessing Xu Xuan.

But this harmonious atmosphere did not last for more than 10 minutes.

Because the system's next words made everyone break their composure on the spot.

[Global Announcement: 7 days later, the human race will enter the mid-stage of Spiritual Qi Recovery, which will usher in brand new enemies. A large number of new races will obtain entry tickets and enter the Lord Continent.]

Seeing this prompt, the originally harmonious chat channel was immediately filled with bird-scented flowers and fragrant languages like "fuck," "xiba," and "baka."
