Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Huangtian naturally agreed because, to be honest, there were many things he did not understand.

Not long after, they returned to the Central Province Capital of Datong Central State.

"All the matters being dealt with, approximately how long will it take? This time, let's notify all the high-ranking officials, so you can realize what kind of situation we're actually in..."

The amount of information obtained from the mirror's memory was not particularly extensive, but it was sufficiently important, especially for the world.

Huangtian knew it was a very important matter. After thinking for a while, he said, "Sir, most of it has been dealt with; the rest are just minor characters. It will all be completely finished in half a month."

"Okay, then let's wait half a month."

...

Huangtian ordered all the powerful ones to take action. Half a month later, the situation was basically under control, and the citizens of Datong began to return.

Meanwhile, in the Central Province Capital of Datong Central State, all the powerful ones who had reached the Fourth Realm began to assemble.

Accompanying them were the traitors who had been brought in under escort.

Backed by the Chaotic Realm, there were those from the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Realms.

These people were not killed immediately because Huangtian wanted a public trial.

The time for the public trial was set before the meeting.

Of course, the so-called public trial was actually the announcement of the crimes followed by a sentence of death; there were no exceptions.

However, Wang Sheng, or rather the Planet Will, stopped it.

"These people need not be killed for now."

"Why?" Wang Sheng was somewhat displeased.

The Planet Will immediately explained.

"People from the Chaotic Realm chose to retreat at first because our planet was about to ascend, enhancing its foundation. The Chaotic Realm's Daoist Sovereign wanted to sacrifice all the beings on our planet to further the ascension and then devour our planet during the ascension, which would bring huge benefits to their world.

However, because of your arrival, their plan failed, but our planet itself won't stop ascending without the bonus. This is a gift from the Starry Sky Rules. Originally, the emergence of a few powerful beings from the Fifth Realm would be enough to reach the limit of ascension. If these people are killed now, we would need a long time to cultivate new Sixth Realm powerhouses.

We cannot miss out on a complete planetary ascension."

"Killing them after ascension wouldn't cause any problems?"

"No, ascension of the planet is irreversible. However, after the ascension, with a strengthened foundation, the world becomes more precious. If powerhouses die after ascension, it would be like a child carrying gold in a market, but we have you, so we don't need to worry about these problems."

Wang Sheng was called an anomaly, not without reason.

The planet was still weak; this cherished foundation was dear to both the Planet Will and the planet itself.

Yet neither of these entities could cultivate a powerful being like Wang Sheng.

A powerful being that surpasses the world itself is quite abnormal.

But it was precisely because of this abnormality that they could be freely utilized.

"Since that is the case, let's spare their lives for the time being, consider it recycling waste."

Wang Sheng agreed, and although the senior officials of Datong like Huangtian did not know the reason, no one opposed it.

This time, if not for Wang Sheng, everyone would have met with a grim fate.

With most of the aftermath taken care of, the most important meeting was next in line.

Datong had faced setbacks. Originally, there were over 200 Fourth Realm powerhouses, but now, discounting the traitors, only 102 remained—76 from the Human Race and 26 from the Spirit Clan.

All the powerhouses were gathered at Datong National College.

Of course, in addition to the powerful ones, there were important individuals like Li Xueqian.

All present knew that this meeting was of extreme importance.

The Human Race and Spirit Clan members in attendance were the elites of this planet.

Despite many setbacks and their cultivation being hindered, it was not without some benefits.

Given time, they would quickly improve.

Once everyone had arrived, Wang Sheng also entered.

"Greetings, sir!"

All the powerful beings stood up and bowed respectfully.

"Please, be seated!"

After Wang Sheng sat down, the members of the Human Race and the Spirit Clan chose to sit as well.

He glanced around.

"What fine targets for harvest..."

This time he had bet correctly and had successfully defended the planet.

With the improvement in his strength, the role of the Virtual World would truly come to bear.

Without external threats and with the planet on the brink of ascension, the Pure Spiritual Power to be reaped would be a terrifying figure.

All the powerful ones present looked toward Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng did not dawdle.

"The reason for gathering everyone here is simple: to tell you part of the truth about the starry sky... a brutal truth!"
