Chapter 1028, Humanity’s Greatest Threat

Translator: Silavin

Within these images, Qin Yichen finally understood the origins of humanity’s foothold.

It was precisely that final battle fought by Ancestor Hongjun that enabled humanity to establish itself.

Only now did he realise that humanity’s establishment was not due to intervention from the Nine Heavens Flaming Sea.

What appeared was only Ancestor Hongjun’s companion.

The Human Race relied upon its own strength to establish itself upon the continent!

That final combined strike was between a Dragon and a Phoenix, and Qin Yichen had witnessed it all.

That was the most powerful strike, shattering even that enormous face!

The images disappeared. Qin Yichen sat down in meditation.

Within his mind, he replayed those scenes again and again, as if to engrave them deep within his Soul, never to forget.

When he emerged, Tian Wuming still awaited him.

“Did you see?” Tian Wuming asked.

“I did.” Qin Yichen nodded, his expression grave.

He understood this old Manor Master’s purpose in bringing him here.

This was not merely to show him those Ancestors’ tragic heroism. More importantly, to make him understand humanity’s formidable enemies!

That enormous face was something Qin Yichen could not put away from his mind.

That was humanity’s greatest threat!

At this moment, Qin Yichen also understood why, even during the Demon Subduing Great Saint’s era, the Human Race had not expanded its territory or improved its circumstances.

The reason lay precisely here.

For the Human Race to truly prosper, there was only one path… someone must become a Human Deity!

Beyond this, no other method existed.

Tian Wuming’s gaze upon Qin Yichen filled with expectation.

Though he had become a supreme expert, he lacked the capability to become a Human Deity.

Qin Yichen was different.

Possessing the same Physique and talent as the Demon Subduing Great Saint, he was undoubtedly the most promising candidate to become a Human Deity!

“From now on, remain at Saints Heavenly Manor.” The old man spoke to Qin Yichen.

Though this would cost Qin Yichen some tempering opportunities, at the Saints Heavenly Manor, absolute safety was guaranteed.

“Understood.” Qin Yichen understood he considered his safety.

…

Saints Heavenly City.

The Heaven Stairway’s commotion had not passed. Many still discussed the True Dragon Martial Soul extensively. However, at this time, different voices began circulating…

That was not a True Dragon Martial Soul. Qin Yichen merely triggered a Restriction upon the Heaven Stairway.

Initially, no one believed this voice. But as more and more people said so, gradually, falsehood transformed into truth.

Many from the older generation felt regret.

More still hoped to witness the Human Race produce a possessor of a True Dragon Martial Soul to lead humanity toward prosperity.

Information, to varying degrees, still leaked out but became chaotic, making it impossible to distinguish which news was genuine.

This was something Saints Heavenly Manor wanted to see.

The Human Race has produced a possessor of a True Dragon Martial Soul, or the Human Race has potentially produced someone with a True Dragon Martial Soul.

These two represented completely different concepts.

Who could not spread false rumours?

Moreover, all Races across the continent knew that Tian Wuming should be nearing the end of his lifespan. Once news of his demise was confirmed, at minimum five or six Major Races would swarm forth, seizing the opportunity to attack the Human Race.

At this time, humanity needed something to inspire fear among all races.

The True Dragon Martial Soul.

Undoubtedly, it was an existence no Race dared treat lightly.

If the Human Race truly produced a True Dragon Martial Soul expert, then those wishing to move against humanity would need to carefully consider whether they could withstand a True Dragon Martial Soul expert’s retaliation!

Therefore, even if those races learned this information, they would speculate whether this might be deliberate misinformation released by humanity to achieve the goal of inspiring their wariness.

However, what they didn’t realise was that once they began thinking this way, the Saints Heavenly Manor’s objective was achieved.

…

Mu Yanfeng and Lin Fengying returned to their respective Sacred Lands.

After Xuan Mingge refined that Wind Attribute Mutated Spirit Seed, his Physique improved and he was selected into the Saints Heavenly Manor.

When this news transmitted back, it sparked another massive sensation.

Though the True Dragon Martial Soul matter remained ambiguous, Qin Yichen ascending the Heaven Stairway and being selected into the Saints Heavenly Manor was indisputable fact!

However, eyewitnesses Mu Yanfeng and Lin Fengying clearly understood, what Qin Yichen possessed was the genuine article… a True Dragon Martial Soul!

They could sense that suffocating Dragon Prestige!

Only, all those who ascended the Heaven Stairway had been gathered together. Great personages from the Saints Heavenly Manor personally warned them that this matter must never be leaked out, must never be told to anyone. Otherwise, they would be judged as traitors to the Human Race!

Naturally, they also understood what the True Dragon Martial Soul meant for the Human Race.

Simultaneously, they understood what the True Dragon Martial Soul meant for Foreign Races.

Regardless of how they competed ordinarily, they were fellow race members. Without supreme martial protection, they were merely provisions for Foreign Races!

Therefore, even returning to the Sacred Lands, they remained tight-lipped about the True Dragon Martial Soul. Moreover, they all claimed Qin Yichen gained some enlightenment upon the Heaven Stairway, comprehending some profound technique, which was why the Saints Heavenly Manor selected him.

Even Mu Yanfeng similarly informed Yu Qianqiu thus.

…

Heavenly Dragon Imperial Dynasty.

Inexplicably, it became lively, with large numbers of experts flooding in.

Martial Emperor Realm.

Within the Imperial Dynasty, this already represented peak-level existence. However, people discovered that these inflowing experts, at a minimum, were all Peak Stage Martial Emperors, if not all Martial Ancestors.

Martial Ancestor, they were existences requiring their reverent gaze. Perhaps only the Feng Family possessed such experts!

However… At this moment, they appeared in droves.

Before the Imperial Dynasty populace could panic, these experts, they could only look up, began doing things that left them dumbstruck.

If one were to use a colloquial phrase to describe these experts’ image in the Imperial Dynasty populace’s hearts, it would be… country bumpkins entering the city!

Indeed.

These experts were a group of country bumpkins!

“Hahahaha, I’ve finally purchased Compound Pills!!”

“Heavens, such Pills. How is it that I’ve never even heard of them!”

“Too miraculous, simply too miraculous. This place has so many varieties of Compound Pills…”

Clutching those Compound Pills that had long since become popular, they shouted excitedly, giving the impression of a group who’d never seen the world.

How could they know the value of Compound Pills in the Sacred Lands?

All Sacred Lands, seeking Compound Pill Formulae and Compound Pill refinement methods, had to approach the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land. However, upon reaching Heavenly Dragon Imperial Dynasty, they discovered this place was filled with Compound Pills. Especially within those Business Alliances, where every Alchemist could refine Compound Pills.

This left the Alchemists who had rushed here upon hearing the news completely stunned.

They were all Earth Grade, even Heaven Grade Alchemists. Yet in refining Compound Pills, they resembled Apprentices who had not yet entered the profession. Meanwhile, the low-level Alchemists within this tiny Imperial Dynasty’s Business Alliance had techniques describable as accomplished mastery.

Naturally, the matter of Compound Pills would inspire many’s envy. However, after learning this Business Alliance was founded by Qin Yichen, such thoughts were all suppressed.

Consequently, something bizarre occurred again. Originally, these experts who could effortlessly destroy the Imperial Dynasty displayed exceptional caution when entering and leaving the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce.

This left Ye Liangchen and the others, who had been on high alert, completely baffled.
