Worldwide Simulation Era

"The number of the sky-devouring demon clan is not enough to cover such a large area. If we gather, we can definitely break out of the encirclement!"

Hearing this, hope rose in everyone's hearts.

However, this hope was quickly extinguished by Lin Qiye.

His face darkened, and he said, "Hall Master Qi, you may not know this, but the encirclement is divided into two layers. The first-level demons were only low-level demons, and the most powerful ones were in the Earth Immortal Realm. The real threat is the demons wandering around the outer layer to provide reinforcements. They are all powerhouses in the Celestial Realm and have set up teleportation arrays everywhere. If anyone wants to break out of the encirclement, they will immediately teleport to the location and carry out a large-scale siege."

"I've just received the news that the four great empires organized a group of a hundred Immortal Realm powerhouses to break out of the siege. In less than fifteen minutes, they were annihilated!"

Hall Master Qi and the others were shocked by Lin Qiye's words.

Hundreds of Immortal Realm powerhouses were annihilated in less than 15 minutes.

Although the cultivators of the secular world were generally weaker than those of the Heavenly God Palace, they were still in the Immortal Realm!

Wan Meng couldn't help but chuckle when she saw how anxious Hall Master Qi and the others were. Only when Lin Qiye glared at her did she put on a stern face.

What Lin Qiye had said just now was purely made up.

There were only three to four hundred Immortal Realm experts in the secular world. No matter how stupid the rulers of the four empires were, how could they disperse their combat power when they knew they were no match for the demons?

"What should we do? Now that the High Gods aren't here, we can't fight against the demon race with the forces we have!"

"Why don't we break out of the encirclement in two directions? Even if those high-level demons want to send reinforcements, they shouldn't be able to send reinforcements to two places at the same time, right?"

"Bullshit! Don't you all know the demons' strength? Even if we break out in different directions, they'll reduce their reinforcements when they see we don't have that many people. At that time, even if we split into a hundred groups, they could still stop us, let alone two!"

The people crowded in the hall had started quarreling. At this moment, Lin Qiye suddenly activated his force field and attracted everyone's attention.

"Everyone, it's not like there's no way to solve this problem."

Hearing this, everyone was stunned. Then, they asked urgently, "What is it? Hurry up and tell us!"

Lin Qiye said in a grave tone, "To tell you the truth, my body is a bit special, and I can break through my current realm quickly through a special secret technique. As long as my cultivation base can improve, the power of the great formation I set up will also be stronger. If you can help me break through to the Celestial Realm, I can guarantee you will be safe and sound even if there are a hundred Celestial Realm demons!"

As soon as he said that, everyone present was either suspicious or angry and ridiculed him.

"Are you kidding me? If you have this technique, why haven't you used it yet?"

"That's right. If you can really do that, I'd like to open my eyes!"

Lin Qiye looked at the crowd and shook his head with a fake sigh.

"Everyone, it's not that I don't want to use it, but I really can't. The conditions to use are too harsh."

"Comrade Lin, at this point, even if the conditions are harsh, you have to give it a try," Hall Master Qi said.

"I'm embarrassed to ask for the price of using this secret technique. If I were to say it, I'm afraid everyone would think I have some selfish motives."

Lin Qiye pretended to be embarrassed, making the survivors of the Heavenly God Palace anxious.

"Say it! As long as it doesn't cross our bottom line, we will help as much as possible!"

Everyone thought Lin Qiye's secret technique required them to provide spiritual herbs or other treasures. Therefore, they were all prepared to pay a huge price.

"Sigh, alright. If it weren't for the fact that I had no other choice, I wouldn't have wanted to do this."

Lin Qiye's expression was filled with conflict and helplessness. It was as if this decision was difficult to make.

"However, since everyone is willing to help, I'll tell you the details.

"My physique is a bit special. It's an absolutely pure thunder attribute. I believe everyone knows this."

The people listened attentively to Lin Qiye's story.

"Because of this advantage, I almost won't have any bottlenecks when I break through. As long as my law comprehension is deep enough, coupled with a sufficient supply of energy, I can easily cross the barrier of cultivation.

"I'm at the peak of the Human Immortal Realm now, but the depth of my nomological laws comprehension has barely reached the level of the Celestial Realm. As long as I have enough energy, I can break through to the Celestial Realm shortly.

"In that case, the power of my formations can be increased tenfold in this land! Even if a hundred demons at the Celestial Realm were to come, they wouldn't break through the defense of my great formation!"

The more Lin Qiye spoke, the more confident he became.

Everyone was surprised that he could break through to the Celestial Realm in a short time.

However, most of their attention was drawn to the formation he had mentioned.

The survivors of the Heavenly God Palace had learned that the great formation built with Tata Village as the core covered the area within a radius of 10,000 miles.

They had experienced the power of the formation, and they felt it was powerful and mysterious.

Now that they heard the array's power could grow as Lin Qiye's strength grew, they were shocked. However, it also ignited a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

"Holy Infant Temple Master, you still haven't told us what you need."

While everyone was looking forward to it, they gradually became nervous.

Lin Qiye had been beating around the bush for a long time, but he didn't mention any conditions. This meant it wasn't a simple matter.

"Ahem, well, the energy required for my breakthrough is too great. I'm afraid everyone here has to help me to have a glimmer of hope."

Someone couldn't stand Lin Qiye's dawdling and said impatiently, "Just say what you want. There are so many of us here. Are you afraid we can't support you?"

"Yeah! Don't you dare compare the Heavenly God Palace's resources to the secular world!"

Many people echoed.

This was the moment Lin Qiye had been waiting for. He couldn't help but grin as he looked at the crowd.

"Good! Since everyone is so forthright, I won't be pretentious. Wan Meng, list all the resources I need for my breakthrough."

"Alright!"

Wan Meng had been waiting impatiently for a long time. With a wave of her hand, a list of items appeared in the void in front of everyone.

The list was constructed by mental power.

With just a sweep of one's spiritual sense, one could know everything on the list.

A moment later, when everyone saw the items on the list, some couldn't help but curse.

"F*ck! Why don't you rob someone? You're looting a burning house, aren't you?"

"This isn't breaking through to the Celestial Realm! With so many precious resources, it shouldn't be a problem for him to break through to the Supreme Realm!"

"It's impossible. Just wait for our death!"

Lin Qiye put on a bitter and helpless expression as he listened to the scolding.

"I know this is a bit difficult, so I was unwilling to say it earlier. However, if everyone is willing to help, I have another feasible method."

"Please speak!"

"Everyone, the energy I need for my breakthrough can be absorbed from other people's energy in addition to being supplied with various natural treasures. It's just that it requires an enormous amount of energy. Unless all of you are willing to help, there's no chance of success."

Lin Qiye's expression was serious and a little strange.

Everyone was stunned by his words.

They were beings that had lived for thousands of years.

Naturally, they knew of many special secret techniques that could absorb the cultivation of others and convert them for one's use.

They also knew the price of those secret techniques was usually huge. Either there were severe side effects, or the cost and benefits were not proportional.

Based on Lin Qiye's description of the cost, it was clear that the secret technique he had mastered was the type that gains less than the cost.

Thinking of this, the anger in everyone's heart dissipated by more than half, and what replaced it was hesitation.
