This was a reward!
Ten super skill points! That was ten trillion skill points in the past!
This was the first time Su Chen had received such a large reward. Had the system gone crazy, or were the rewards for self-created techniques always like this?
In addition, Su Chen noticed that the Great Fusion Technique was a super sage technique. It was second only to immortal-grade techniques.
If the reward was based on the level of self-created techniques, then it made sense. After all, a super sage technique wasn't a small sum in the market.
Also, what was the use of this reward card?
The system didn't explain it in detail. He'd have to use it to find out.
However, Su Chen's mind was close to collapsing, and he didn't have the strength to use it, so he fell asleep.
He slept for three days.
Three days later, Su Chen woke up feeling refreshed. He walked out of the training hall and took a comfortable bath. Then, he found Miya and asked about the recent situation in the Spiritual Mountain Sect.
Two months had passed. He didn't know if Phoenix Dawn had returned.
"Elder Su, the battle outside the realm has reached its climax. The Spiritual Mountain Sect has sent a large number of disciples to the Star Path to support the battle. Spirit Talisman Peak's Divine King Hongzhong has also rushed to the battlefield. However, even with two Divine Kings, they still haven't been able to seize control of the Star Path.
"It's that serious?
How many forces have the demons sent? "
"It's unclear, but this time, the demons' attitude is very unyielding. They seem determined to take over the Star Path. Because of this, the Spiritual Mountain's Tranquil Province has been cut off from the rest of the world. If the demons continue to send large numbers of troops, the Spiritual Mountain's Tranquil Province may very well be besieged. The situation is very bad."
Miya continued, "Because of the importance of this matter, the entire cultivation world of the Spiritual Mountain's Tranquil Province has been mobilized. The Three Sacred Sects have sent large numbers of experts to the battlefield, and the Nine Abodes have contributed money and manpower. Even the Ancestral Dragon, who's nearing the end of his lifespan, has personally led the Mad Dragon Warriors to the battlefield to participate in the extermination of the demons."
Su Chen frowned. He hadn't expected such a big change to occur in the outside world while he'd been in seclusion for two months. With so many experts rushing to the Outsider Battlefield, the commotion must've been extraordinary. Perhaps the entire Spiritual Mountain's Tranquil Province was in a state of panic.
Su Chen asked, "Has Lady Providence made a move?"
"Not yet. Her Highness is the strongest combatant in Spiritual Mountain. She won't make a move easily, because once she makes a move, it will become an all-out war. The Demon Race will definitely throw in their Saint Kings as well. That way, things will get out of hand."
"What about the Great Emperor?
Is there any news about the Great Emperors? "
Great Emperors guarded the common people and were the strongest force against the Devil Race. Usually, when the Devil Race was active on a large scale, the Great Emperors would take action.
Miya shook her head. "I don't know about that."
"Alright, you can leave first."
"Yes."
After Mi Ya left, Su Chen fell into deep thought.
On one hand, he was worried about Phoenix Dawn's safety. On the other hand, Su Chen had to consider a problem. The Demon Race had suddenly become strong. Did something happen internally?
The conflict between the Demon Race and the cultivation world was, in essence, a conflict between the Demon Abyss Universe and the Primordial Universe. This was a conflict that had existed since the birth of the two universes. It couldn't be resolved, but after so many years, it had long since reached a delicate balance.
Once the conflict intensified, it meant that something had happened internally. That was why they needed to use external means to release the pressure from within.
This wasn't the first time. Su Chen had read many ancient books, and among them were records of the reasons behind several large-scale wars in history.
In all likelihood, the purpose of war was to divert internal pressure.
In the past few million years, although the Primordial Universe and the Demon Abyss Universe had often clashed, the eruptions weren't intense. Now that the Demon Race had suddenly become strong, it seemed like they wanted to start an even larger war. The possibility of the Demon Race's internal pressure was extremely high.
Su Chen had no way of knowing what kind of internal pressure the Demon Race was facing, but he had a vague feeling that this matter might have something to do with Su Xiaoyao.
Even if it had nothing to do with her, Su Xiaoyao was the princess of the Demon Race. She was in the core of the Demon Race. If something happened internally, Su Xiaoyao would definitely face great pressure or even danger.
"I have to speed up my cultivation. Breaking through to the Divine King Realm is still a bit far for me. But with the Great Fusion Technique and the Super Godly Talent, I should be able to cultivate to the Heaven's Equal Realm in a short time. With the cultivation of the Heaven's Equal Realm, I can enter the Demon Abyss."
Su Chen prepared to immediately begin the second stage of seclusion after he recovered his energy, striving to break through to the Heaven's Equal Realm as soon as possible.
After taking a bath and returning to the bedroom, Xiao Longnu was still sitting in front of the big screen, playing games. Su Chen hadn't called her back when he was in seclusion, so Xiao Longnu had been alone at the Spirit Knight Peak. However, she didn't go out to play. She had been staying at home playing games. Beside her was a pile of Coca-Cola, potato chips, and snacks, which Su Chen had bought for her in the mall.
"Brother …"
Seeing Su Chen again after more than two months, Xiao Longnu was very excited. She immediately put down her controller and pounced on Su Chen, taking the initiative to kiss him.
"Ding, Xiao Longnu has taken the initiative to kiss you. Luck + 10."
Su Chen was stunned. Was there really such a good thing?
Su Chen carried Xiao Longnu to the bed. She refused to leave Su Chen's embrace, wrapping her arms around Su Chen's neck and saying sweetly, "Big Brother, I'm sleepy. I want you to hug me to sleep."
"Alright, let's sleep together."
Su Chen slept soundly that night. When he woke up the next day, he was full of energy.
After preparing some snacks and Coca-Cola for Xiao Longnu, Su Chen returned to the training hall and prepared to enter secluded cultivation.
However, as soon as he entered, Su Chen was given a fright. At some point, Lady Providence had appeared within the training hall.
Only the peak lords had the right to enter the training hall, but Lady Providence was an exception. After all, the entire Spirit Mountain belonged to her.
"Lady Providence," said Su Chen. "Is there something important you want to talk to me about?"
Lady Providence didn't say anything, but Su Chen immediately understood what she meant.
With a shake of his body, Su Chen switched to Yu Tianheng's alternate account.
"Senior Apprentice Brother."
When she saw Yu Tianheng, Lady Providence melted like an iceberg. Her expression instantly became lively, and she stood up and walked over.
"Junior Apprentice Sister, what's the matter?"
"I've come to say goodbye, Senior Apprentice Brother," said Lady Providence.
"Where are you going?"
"Senior Apprentice Brother, you should've heard Su Chen mention the demon race's invasion of the Path of Stars. Just two hours ago, the Path of Stars was completely occupied. The Spiritual Mountain Sect's two godkings were heavily injured, and the Ancestral Dragon died in battle. Now, the demon race has cut off all contact between the Spirit Mountain and the outside world. Furthermore, the aura of the Demon Abyss is approaching.
