"Don't care about life and death. If you don't accept it, then fight."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
No one would have thought that the usually taciturn Yunkai would say such domineering words.
Moreover, Yunkai's expression was very serious. It didn't seem like he was just joking.
Ordinary people might not know how cruel and bloody the key struggle was, but any martial artist would know.
Humans, demons, foreign races, and some mysterious races fought in a chaotic battle. Every move was fatal and merciless.
This was more bloody than any other competition.
The Battle of Glory was already considered cruel. Every battle had the possibility of death.
But compared to the battle for the keys, it was nothing. It was just a game, a game.
The Battle of Glory had rules. If the difference in strength between teams wasn't large, then if there wasn't a grudge or if they couldn't hold back, they wouldn't kill.
But there were no rules in the key struggle. All kinds of bullying, poison, sneak attacks, and assassinations could occur.
This was a chaotic battle of life and death without rules.
The goal was to kill the enemy. There was no compromise.
Every key was soaked in blood.
The hands of every key holder were also covered in blood.
No one dared to rashly become enemies with the key holder. The key wasn't just a symbol of strength, it was also a symbol of bloodshed.
This time, the struggle for the key in the Land of Chaos was far more difficult and bloody than any other key in the past.
After sealing the Imperial Jade Seal's spatial gate and killing over a hundred foreign geniuses, Ye Qiu and the others weren't afraid of fighting the foreign races.
But it was different this time.
Last time, inside the Imperial Jade Seal's spatial gate, they had faced foreign geniuses of similar age and strength.
Under Lin Feng's leadership, they had relied on team tactics to ambush and kill them, which had given them an absolute advantage.
This time, if they entered the Land of Chaos, they would face even more powerful enemies. Not only would they face Grandmasters and Ascendant Cloud experts, but they might also face Kings and even Emperors.
Although they didn't know how the foreign races had managed to fuse the spatial gate, the price was definitely not small.
The foreign races were definitely determined to obtain this key. They wouldn't let their invasion plan go to waste.
This also meant that the Land of Chaos would gather all the top geniuses and experts of the foreign races.
The struggle for this key would be even more bitter and bloody.
This was the prelude to the war between the two races.
This level of danger was not the same as sealing the Imperial Jade Seal's spatial door.
Although everyone's strength would be suppressed to the first rank in the Land of Chaos, and they couldn't use other soul skills, they could only use their innate skills. However, the foreign races had rich combat experience and had an advantage over them.
If he wasn't careful, he might really die.
Even Hong Tao, a Transcendent, had his right arm chopped off by Absolute Heaven, who was only at the seventh stage. If they were to encounter Absolute Heaven, they would also be in great danger.
This was also the reason why they hesitated.
"Akai, aren't you worried?"
Dong Yunnan looked up at Yunkai and said.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him in surprise, Yun Kai revealed a stiff smile and said, "That's right.
"The foreign tribes are about to invade. We don't have much time left. The Spiritual Energy Tide allowed me to break through to Rank-6 and brought us so many benefits. If we enter the portal, we might get even more benefits!"
At this point, Yunkai paused and continued, "This is just the beginning. Who knows, we might encounter more battles like this in the future."
After that, Yunkai glanced at Linfeng.
He was lying.
Actually, there weren't so many reasons.
Yunkai didn't have much of a pursuit for fame and wealth.
He wasn't interested in entering the Glory League either. He didn't like the feeling of being too focused on.
Compared to becoming a superstar, he wanted to be an ordinary person more.
An ordinary person who could go to work normally, have a part-time life, marry a wife and have children.
He thirsted for power and persevered in cultivation every day just to keep up with Linfeng's footsteps. He hoped that he could help Linfeng one day.
The reason he wanted to enter the Land of Chaos was because Linfeng wanted to enter.
Yunkai's words made everyone fall into silence.
Indeed, they didn't have much time left.
They needed time to grow, but the foreign races didn't seem to give them this time.
Therefore, they had to seize the opportunity to become stronger.
Shang Jing definitely wouldn't let the portal merge. This was a ticking time bomb that could explode at any time.
The higher-ups would definitely use all their strength and fight for this key at all costs.
To fight for it, they needed a large number of people and many geniuses to join.
This kind of thing couldn't be forced.
Naturally, there would be a reward.
Although they didn't know what the reward was, it would definitely be generous. Participating in this fight for the key would definitely increase their strength greatly.
But it was really too dangerous!
As disciples of large families, they had talent and resources. Even if the portal merged, it wouldn't be a matter of life and death. There was no need to take such a huge risk.
"What's there to be afraid of? Wealth comes from danger." Yu Qiao said casually.
Yunkai wasn't afraid, so he wasn't afraid either.
Compared to the others' hesitation, he didn't have as many scruples.
He didn't have the support of his family. He relied on himself to get to where he was now.
Only by risking his life could he obtain resources.
Although it was very dangerous this time, the rewards would definitely be very generous.
"If you give me a Six-Winged Illusion Python, I'll pull out my dagger and kill it without hesitation."
Yu Qiao looked forward to it, his eyes revealing a trace of desire.
He couldn't forget about the Six-Winged Illusion Python.
Especially in the last match, when he saw the effect of Linfeng's divine skill, he was drooling.
Normally, he wouldn't be able to obtain a Six-Winged Illusion Python, even if it was the champion's diamond soul skill.
Transmogrification was a divine soul skill, far more precious than diamond soul skills.
But at this critical moment, there might be a chance.
"Let's observe the situation first. We don't need to make a decision in such a hurry." Linfeng said.
He wanted to fight for this key, not only because it was very important to Shang Jing and even the whole country, but also because it was a rare opportunity.
Just like the imperial jade seal's portal, this was an excellent opportunity to hunt down foreign geniuses and experts.
Linfeng was confident that he could hunt down a king under the circumstances of suppressing his strength.
As long as he killed most of the foreign geniuses and experts, even if he didn't obtain the key, the portal wouldn't merge again.
Since he was the one who caused the portal to merge in advance, he would end it all.
Moreover, he would encounter all kinds of peerless geniuses in this fight for the key, which meant that they had all kinds of rare soul skills, and even divine soul skills.
This was also an opportunity for the Nightmare King to absorb soul skills.
There might not be such an opportunity in the future.
Linfeng knew that this fight for the key would be very dangerous, and he couldn't let his teammates pay the price for his thoughts.
This operation could only be done willingly.
Bu Zheng and Elder Yun listened in silence. Their brows were slightly furrowed, and their expressions were somewhat serious, but they resisted the urge to express their opinions.
The foreign invaders were about to invade, and no one could stay out of it.
Regardless of whether they were martial artists or ordinary people, their lives would be in danger.
The fight for the key was indeed dangerous, but danger also came with opportunity.
Only by quickly becoming stronger would they have the ability to resist the danger.
They couldn't always be by their side, and if the foreign invaders really did invade, they would have to fight.
Just as the Avengers were discussing, the whole country and even the whole world knew about the disappearance of the portal. The world was shaken.
All the major television channels began to report overnight, and at the same time, they calmed down the citizens who had fallen into chaos.
At this time, the alarm in Shang Jing had disappeared, but no one felt sleepy.
All the supermarkets and convenience stores were sold out, and the people's faces were filled with unease and fear.
At the same time, all the Guardians and Kings of China received a message on their phones.
It was a gathering order.
Experts continuously arrived in Shang Jing, and when they arrived outside the portal of the Chaotic Lands, they entered a temporary meeting room.
At this time, almost two hundred people had gathered in the meeting room, and all of them were Kings.
On a step, there were three stone chairs.
Hong Tao sat in the middle, and on his two sides sat an old man in a Tang suit and a woman in a long skirt.
Like Hong Tao, those who were qualified to sit were undoubtedly Emperors.
These two people were no strangers to the crowd.
They were two of the Thirteen Kings of China.
The old man's name was Chen Tiangeng, a Martial Emperor.
The woman's name was Xie, a Transcendent.
In the crowd, Yang Qingtian and Yang Qing stood, surrounded by many people, who were all Kings of the Ten Great Families in Shang Jing.
"Did you call us here to fight for the key?"
"Of course. Otherwise, why would so many people be gathered here?
Almost half of the Kings in the country are here. "
"Sigh, this fight for the key will be very tragic, and people's lives will be worthless."
"If what Emperor Hong said is true, then everyone will be suppressed by the space and can only display the strength of a Rank One martial artist. They can't use their soul skills at will and can only use their innate skills. Then, even a king can be killed by the weak."
"Even King Hong almost couldn't come out, let alone Kings."
"Yes, if Kings are killed by the weak, then it won't be worth it."
"Even if it's not worth it, we still have to go. Are we just going to watch the spatial gates merge?"
Everyone discussed spiritedly.
The entire conference room was very noisy.
Everyone had their own thoughts about the fusion of spatial gates.
"Alright, quiet down," Hong Tao said.
His voice was not loud, but the conference room immediately quieted down.
Faced with everyone's gazes, Hong Tao continued, "I'm sure that everyone has already guessed why I called everyone here. That's right, it's to fight for the key.
"The fusion of spatial gates is a signal that the Shenwu Continent is invading, and this is a test by the foreign races.
One spatial gate might not be a big deal, and we can still defend against them.
But if we ignore it, then it won't be long before a second spatial gate fuses.
When the number of spatial gates fuse exceeds a certain number, I don't need to explain the consequences.
"Therefore, this meeting is not for you to discuss whether or not to fight for the key.
"We will definitely fight for the key. There is no doubt about that."
Hong Tao's tone was indifferent, but it was firm.
His words caused many people's expressions to change, and some of them even turned pale. They no longer had any hope of surviving.
"There are 127 families of Glory in the country, and this time, every family must send a king.
The Hong family that I belong to will not be an exception.
If anyone disobeys, they will be stripped of their title of Glory. "
When he said this, everyone's expressions changed again and again.
Even Yang Qingtian was no exception.
The Yang family currently had four kings, and he was the strongest, followed by Yang Qing.
As the head of the family, he was the one who benefited the most from the family's benefits. In such a dangerous situation, he could not allow the rest of his family to take the risk.
Thus, if he refused to enter the Bedlam Lands, Yang Qing would enter.
"Emperor Hong, what if there is no king, or if the king is old and weak, or if he is injured?" an elder asked.
The Glory Financial Group and the Glory families had made great contributions to the country, which was why they had been bestowed the title of Glory.
Although most of these contributions represented military achievements, there were also contributions to scientific research and other fields.
Not all families of Glory had a king.
Some families of Glory had their kings fall due to accidents.
Some had declined over the years, and were unable to nurture a king.
Of course, they could give up, but the price of being stripped of the title of Glory was too great. It would be a fatal blow to the family.
Because of the title of Glory, they enjoyed privileges that ordinary people could not enjoy in various fields. This was the guarantee of the family's prosperity.
Although it was only a title, it was worth more than 100 billion.
"Being old and weak is not a reason."
Hong Tao glanced at the elder and coldly said.
"If you don't want a king, or if there is no king, then send out a genius that has refined an Earth Ranking demon spirit. Such a genius can also represent a king."
Hearing this answer, many people's eyes moved, and some of them bitterly smiled.
Those that have refined an Earth Ranking demon spirit are all super geniuses, and are extremely rare. Not every family of Glory has one.
Some families have a king, but they don't have one.
Even if they have one, such a genius is the future of the family, and they might not be willing to take the risk.
"What if there is no genius that has refined an Earth Ranking demon spirit?"
The elder continued to ask.
"If there isn't one, then pay the price to find one. As long as the other party is willing, it's fine.
If you can't find a super genius that has refined an Earth Ranking demon spirit, a genius with a battle record is also fine. When the time comes, we will determine if they are qualified. "Hong Tao lightly said.
The elder nodded his head. Although he still had doubts, he did not dare to continue asking.
At this moment, he was already considering which genius he should find.
What kind of price should he pay for the other party to agree?
"As for the king or super genius, if they are willing to participate in this battle, there will also be rewards. As for the specific rewards, we will discuss it later."
After Hong Tao finished speaking, he looked at the elder and lady beside him.
"Do you have anything to add?"
The two of them shook their heads, indicating that they had nothing to say.
"Alright, go and prepare. I will give you three days to prepare. After three days, the name list will be submitted."
Hong Tao waved his hand and announced the end of the meeting.
The various kings looked at each other with a difficult expression. However, no one said anything and quickly left the meeting room.
This meeting that gathered half of the kings of China only lasted for ten minutes before it ended.
Hong Tao clearly did not like to talk nonsense.
At this crucial moment, there's no need to talk nonsense, just carry it out.
Everyone had different thoughts, but in the face of the big picture, no one dared to go against this order.
After the meeting ended, the super genius that refined an Earth Ranking demon spirit suddenly became a hot commodity.
The various families of Glory of Glory offered all kinds of resources and conditions, hoping to get them to participate in the battle for the key.
