139: Absorb the wood sprout crystal!

This war between humans and monsters was more brutal than any before it.

This battle, full of blood and fire, began on the evening of the 22nd and lasted until past 10 PM the following night.

After twenty-eight hours of intense fighting,

the human side ultimately emerged victorious, successfully defending both major strongholds of Modu Base City.

With the addition of six Planetary Level martial artists and two Invincible Gods of War, the battlefield situation quickly turned.

The scales of victory rapidly tipped in favor of humanity.

The only regret was that the King-level Octopus Beast King, which was at the peak of its power, managed to escape.

Seeing that things were going poorly, it directly sacrificed its subordinates to save itself, severing seven massive tentacles to aid its escape.

Its decisiveness even surpassed that of the Hell Spider Emperor from No. 9 Relic.

In the Modu campaign, the human side suffered heavy casualties but also achieved substantial results.

Modu Base City, Military Headquarters.

"Thank you all for your support from afar. Our victory in the Modu campaign this time would not have been possible without your strong backing, especially Angers, Kassel, and Chairwoman Isadora. Thank you, truly."

"And Kyoto Base City, your support was also crucial in our success in slaying the King-Level Squid and repelling the King-level peak Octopus Beast King."

Su Dao San was in a very good mood. Even though the losses were heavy this time, they had successfully resisted this catastrophic beast tide.

At this moment, Ma Liang, Modu's top martial artist and chief commander, had been sent to a special hospital for treatment.

Therefore, the second-in-command, Su Dao San, temporarily took over his duties to make some work arrangements.

"Now that this catastrophic beast tide has been defended against, our Modu Base City should have at least three months of peace. One King-level Monster has been killed, so it's unlikely other monsters will launch a direct attack."

Inside the vast command room, heroes gathered.

Not only were there four Planetary Level martial artists from the Jingji Garrison—Xue Zhan, Ye Daoxuan, and General Ling Huang Qianzhong—but also several prominent figures from the HR Alliance, including Chairwoman Isadora.

Of course, the greatest credit belonged to Chen Fan and Lin Xinghe, who jointly withstood the King-Level Squid.

If it weren't for the two of them buying enough time, the battle situation would still be unclear.

"Next, all the monster materials you've killed can be sold to our military. We will buy them back at high prices."

Su Dao San said with a smile.

Chen Fan, however, was preoccupied with thoughts of the mu ya crystal in Kyoto Base City and paid no attention to Su Dao San's words.

After handing over the materials from five High-level Lord monsters, Chen Fan received 91.2 billion in funds.

Immediately after, Chen Fan, along with Lin Xinghe, Ye Qiu, and Jia Yi, boarded Xue Zhan's intelligent fighter jet and returned to Kyoto Base City.

Inside the cabin, Xue Zhan looked at Chen Fan with a smile: "Excellent, excellent. A seventeen-year-old Advanced God of War and Psycher Master is a rare existence, even globally."

"Chen Fan, you must work hard to surpass Hong and Thunder God as soon as possible and become the Great Xia's number one martial artist."

Facing the smiling Xue Zhan, who represented the pinnacle of power and martial might in Great Xia, Chen Fan felt a little nervous.

He had previously seen him, Thunder God, and Hong fighting a Royal-level Monster from afar.

Now, facing the world's third-ranked martial artist in person, Chen Fan felt as weak as a firefly.

Unconsciously, he felt some pressure.

Clap! Clap!

"Don't worry. Go to the Jingji Garrison Headquarters to claim your reward. Break through to Planetary Level as soon as possible. Our Great Xia needs martial artists like you."

Xue Zhan patted Chen Fan's shoulder again, looking expectant.

Chen Fan: "I guarantee the completion of the mission!"

Hearing Chen Fan's reply, Xue Zhan nodded in satisfaction, then his sharp gaze swept over Lin Xinghe and Jia Yi.

"You two Invincible Gods of War must hurry up! I even gave you Ye Qiu's mu ya crystal. If you don't live up to expectations, you'll be letting me down!"

Ye Qiu: "...What did I do wrong!"

As soon as Xue Zhan finished speaking, Lin Xinghe and Jia Yi said in unison: "No problem, Boss Xue!"

Xue Zhan nodded but did not speak.

At the same time, he did not notice the expressions on Lin Xinghe's and Jia Yi's faces privately.

"What preferential treatment, is an Advanced God of War Psycher Master so amazing?"

The two grumbled silently in their hearts, but their faces still wore broad smiles.

Rumble!

The fighter jet tore through the air, heading straight from the southern sea entrance to Kyoto Base City in the north.

With a journey of just over two thousand kilometers, the intelligent fighter jet would return in an hour.

An hour later, Jingji Garrison Headquarters.

Under Xue Zhan's leadership, Chen Fan obtained the incredibly valuable treasure, the mu ya crystal.

Chen Fan also received a portion of dragon blood as his reward for the Modu campaign.

After all, he and Lin Xinghe, an Advanced God of War and an Invincible God of War, had desperately resisted the charge of a King-level Monster, buying a significant amount of time for the subsequent reinforcement troops.

So Lin Xinghe was rewarded with half a mu ya crystal.

As for the other half, it was in the hands of the Invincible God of War Jia Yi.

Another Invincible God of War, Ye Qiu, who did not receive a mu ya crystal, actually took his leave directly, choosing to go alone to Qilu Base City to carry out a mission.

But everyone knew full well.

Ye Qiu's mission was fake; in reality, he was trying to avoid this awkward situation.

"We are all Invincible Gods of War, Hong, you are showing favoritism!"

Regarding this, neither Ye Qiu's father, Ye Daoxuan, nor the other Planetary Level martial artists had anything to say.

Jingji Garrison Headquarters, highest floor.

In Xue Zhan's office, Chen Fan received the mu ya crystal and a portion of dragon blood, then quickly departed from the highest seat of power in all of Great Xia.

He entered empty-handed, but Chen Fan emerged with both hands full.

In one hand was a brocade box containing the mu ya crystal, and in the other was a test tube filled with golden dragon blood.

Chen Fan carefully cradled these two crucial items and directly entered the private training room within the Jingji Garrison Headquarters.

This type of training room was generally not open to outsiders; even God of War martial artists from other forces were not allowed in.

Because the establishment of this private training room was originally for the martial artists of the entire Great Xia Military.

"The world is vast, but increasing strength is the most important!"

Chen Fan silently recited this thought in his heart.

And so, Chen Fan entered the training room.

"Beep beep beep!"

After setting several layers of passwords on the door, Chen Fan took out a fist-sized, white crystal emitting a rich rice fragrance from the specially made brocade box.

The moment it was taken out, a rich aroma filled the surroundings.

This was due to the unique characteristic of the mu ya crystal.

Immediately after, Chen Fan said nothing more and directly placed the mu ya crystal in the palm of his hand, beginning to absorb it.

Wafts of rich fragrance were invigorating, then, as Chen Fan's Heaven-Heart Cultivation Method circulated,

strands of extremely powerful and pure energy were drawn from the mu ya crystal, flowing through all of Chen Fan's pores into his body, continuously strengthening the genetic energy within him.

It seemed that having tasted the sweetness of absorbing the mu ya crystal for the first time, Chen Fan immediately accelerated his speed, absorbing it at an even more terrifying pace.

As time passed minute by minute, the originally adult fist-sized white crystal shrank by a fifth.

Although Chen Fan noticed this, he still did not stop.

He continued to intensify his efforts, constantly absorbing the mu ya crystal!!!
