Wan Meng also acted quickly. In a short while, she connected the energy of over three hundred Celestial Realm powerhouses to him.
When everything was ready, Wan Meng returned to Lin Qiye's sea of consciousness and sighed.
"Tsk, tsk. Master, it's a pity you didn't go to the theatrical troupe to develop your career. I almost believed you!"
"Het moving. Otherwise, we'll be in trouble if exposed," Lin Qiye replied in secret. He immediately devoted himself to his perception and absorbed energy.
Under the demon's threat, the survivors of the Heavenly God Palace didn't dare to play any tricks. They carefully transferred their immortal energy.
In their eyes, the demons had officially launched an all-out invasion of this world.
However, they did not know that all of it was just an illusion created by Lin Qiye.
It was true that the demons had invaded, but they were all low-level demons from the secular world.
Furthermore, they were only a part of the demons stimulated by the four empires.
As for the story about the demons surrounding the survivors of the four empires and a large group of Celestial Realm powerhouses attacking Tata Village...
Lin Qiye had fabricated these stories to put on a show.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was to force the survivors of the Heavenly God Palace to give up their energy for him willingly.
Under normal circumstances, it was almost impossible to persuade them to do so.
However, they had just experienced the siege of the demons, and their fear was at its strongest.
Therefore, putting on such a show of being surrounded by demons would easily cause them to be confused.
In addition to the real-time situation at the front lines and Lin Qiye and the others' vivid performance, the Heavenly God Palace didn't think much about it. They were sure the demons had officially launched a full-scale attack.
When they heard that Lin Qiye had a way to deal with the situation, they had to follow his instructions obediently, no matter how high the price was.
"Everyone is ready. Master, according to their current total energy strength, it's much stronger than expected. If you can absorb half of their energy, you'll likely break through to the initial stage of the Celestial Realm."
In a short time, Wan Meng had figured out everyone's foundation and made a preliminary estimate.
"Half? Tell them the situation first. If anyone is unwilling, let's play it safe and break through to the Earth Immortal Realm first."
It was extremely difficult for an Immortal Realm expert to accumulate immortal energy. The greater the consumption, the harder it was to make up for it.
If the energy consumed was less than thirty percent, it could be replenished in a few months at most.
However, if they used up half of their energy, they would need at least ten years to recover it.
If the exhaustion is more than that, it will take hundreds of years to make up for it, which is not rare.
"Alright, I'll tell them."
Wan Meng informed the Heavenly God Palace of Lin Qiye's consumption.
When they heard it would consume 50% of their energy, many people immediately hesitated.
Such a huge loss of immortal energy was undoubtedly fatal to them.
If Lin Qiye still couldn't defeat the demons after absorbing their immortal energy, they would lose all ability to fight back.
"Half of our immortal energy is too much. We can only give up 30% at most. The rest can be supplemented with spiritual herbs and other treasures."
"That's right. Little Wan Meng, as a divine weapon, it shouldn't be a problem for you to directly convert spiritual herbs and other treasures into energy for him, right?"
After a brief hesitation, someone quickly proposed a compromise.
They could recover quickly if they consumed less than 30% of their immortal energy. It would be risky to exceed that. In comparison, it was more worthwhile to give Lin Qiye some treasures.
"Alright, take out your resources. I'll see if it's enough."
To Wan Meng, as long as she could help Lin Qiye to break through, it didn't matter if she directly absorbed their energy or transformed it from spiritual herbs or other treasures.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe group fiddled around for a while and soon took out a huge amount of resources and placed them in the courtyard.
They provided all types of spiritual herbs and cultivation-enhancing treasures, but most were not of much use to their realm.
"What a bunch of stingy guys. They've been in the Heavenly God Palace for so long, but they only took out this junk," Wan Meng secretly muttered to Lin Qiye.
"What, are these all useless?"
Lin Qiye felt a little confused when he sensed the treasure pile in the courtyard, filled with pure energy.
"It's not useless. Compared to the resources in the secular world, these are rare, but they're just ordinary in the Heavenly God Palace. I'll make do with it, but it's barely usable."
Wan Meng knew it would be difficult to get anything out of the hands of the people from the Heavenly God Palace, so she didn't dare to push them too hard. Otherwise, some people might think of other ideas to protect the treasure.
If they found out this was all a scam, everything would be for naught.
"It's good that it can be used. As long as there's enough energy, nothing is a problem."
At Lin Qiye's signal, Wan Meng quickly counted the resources and calculated the energy that could be converted.
"These guys are really stingy. The resources they gave are just enough to gather the 20% immortal energy."
Wan Meng ridiculed, but she didn't stop.
She quickly absorbed the resources and converted them. At the same time, she guided the energy of the Immortal Realm powerhouses to Lin Qiye.
The two sides formed a one-way energy channel, and as soon as the connection was made, everyone immediately felt a powerful suction force madly extracting their energy.
