Chapter 158 Heart Tribulation

After returning to the tribe, Yi Chen concentrated on cultivation.

The subsequent cleanup and aftermath seemed to have nothing to do with him.

This does not mean that he does not care about the cleanup and aftermath.

On the contrary, he cares a lot, but he does not waste time on paying attention and following up.

The information and materials that the intelligence organization and the General Political Department stuffed in from the gap under the stone gate were opened and checked by him almost as soon as he appeared.

He had to understand and grasp the aftermath at any time.

Because the aftermath is also of great importance, and even related to whether the interests can be maximized.

He also paid a lot of costs for this battle.

Time and energy are secondary. The most important thing is that the spiritual consciousness geniuses of the four armies were all transferred to the Misty Forest, which caused the expansion of the four armies to stagnate.

After more than half a month, his sphere of influence increased by nearly 400,000 square kilometers.

Moreover, after successfully defeating the Holy Water Tribe, the spiritual consciousness geniuses of the four armies could not return.

It will take a lot of time to integrate and recruit those powerful beasts, and stay in the valley for a while to ensure that there is enough strength to suppress the entire Holy Water Tribe.

After all, the number of people in the Holy Water Tribe is as high as more than 35,000.

In addition to the scattered tribes that were conquered one after another before, there are also more than 15,000 people.

In a short period of time, more than 50,000 people poured into the valley, which is nearly four times the total population of the Yanshan Tribe before.

In addition to a large number of beasts, the spiritual consciousness geniuses of the four armies must stay in the valley for a while to ensure that there will be no major chaos in the tribe.

In other words, it will take some time to restart the expansion.

According to Yi Chen's estimate, in total, he will lose at least 600,000 square kilometers of territory.

600,000 square kilometers means 0.6 times the additional talent bonus.

Of course, if everything goes well, this loss is not worth mentioning.

The addition of more than 4,000 powerful beasts is enough to increase the expansion speed.

Not to mention, this time, the population of Yanshan tribe soared from 13,000 to 63,400.

At most half a year later, the newly added 50,000 people will be able to join the four armies with outstanding talents.

One or two years will be enough to expand the strength of the four armies from 1,300 to 6,000.

The reproduction speed of more than 50,000 human beings can also be greatly improved.

This benefit is hundreds and thousands of times higher than the current loss.

And the premise is that everything goes well.

The newly influx of human beings can be smoothly integrated into the Yanshan tribe and slowly assimilated.

Yi Chen doesn't want to see any unexpected situation happen.

The General Administration is beyond Yi Chen's expectation.

This kind of population explosion, in theory, must be followed by all kinds of troubles.

Especially these newly joined human beings, they all live in the misty forest.

Various living habits, environmental climate, are very different from those of the Yanshan tribe.

The management, allocation, ideological guidance, and teaching of cultivation that followed were bound to cause a lot of conflicts, slowing down the pace of the merger.

As a result, the General Administration handled it in an orderly and well-arranged manner, allowing the entire integration to be rapidly advanced.

Even more, even the future food source from hunting, transfer and transition to various plant cultivation was considered in advance and detailed plans were made.

This made Yi Chen feel that the General Administration was full of talented people.

Regardless of whether it was really full of talented people, at least the progress was faster than Yi Chen expected.

In just over ten days, the spiritual consciousness geniuses of the four armies began to leave the valley in batches.

The valley, which was originally several kilometers long and wide and slightly empty, had a vague feeling of congestion as various houses and buildings rose from the ground.

In a few days, the northern army could even march into the misty forest again to search for those scattered tribes.

It won't be long before the population of the tribe can be increased.

…

In the flying magic weapon in the shape of a stone house, after breaking through to the peak of the ninth level of the spiritual consciousness period, Yi Chen broke through to a new realm.

His mind was free of distractions, and his spirit was empty.

Suddenly, it seemed like a moment, and it seemed like countless years had passed.

Yi Chen opened his eyes and was shocked to find that he was in a void.

He could not see anything.

It was as if he had fallen into an endless abyss, surrounded by the screams and howls of demons.

These screams and howls, in this endless abyss where nothing could be seen, seemed to be right beside his ears, and seemed to come from far away, with a soul-stirring scream.

It made people shudder and fear from the depths of their souls.

Yi Chen's face changed suddenly.

He tried to calm himself down as much as possible and tried to open his spiritual consciousness.

But he was surprised to find that he still could not sense the source of those screams and howls.

In his ears, gusts of cold wind and inexplicable coldness suddenly swept over, taking him to fall rapidly to a deeper depth.

The howling of ghosts and wolves, like maggots on the tarsal bones, always lingered in his ears.

These terrible sounds and the freezing cold seemed to pull him into the abyss of hell.

Even with Yi Chen's concentration, his heartbeat accelerated and he sweated profusely.

The terrifying feeling of falling into the end of hell, as if he would be smashed to pieces in the next second, made him feel a growing fear in the depths of his heart.

He tried to mobilize his spiritual power to slow down his falling speed.

But he was horrified to find that his Qi Sea was empty.

In the endless abyss, a bloody mouth that could swallow everything suddenly appeared.

A disgusting stench hit him in the face.

His body seemed to be imprisoned, falling towards the bloody mouth.

No matter how he struggled, he could not move at all.

The distance was getting closer and closer.

Helplessness and fear were intertwined. His soul trembled.

He gritted his teeth, suppressed the fear in his heart, and tried his best to break free from this bondage and the cold that froze his body.

Bang!

Something seemed to be shattered in the depths of his soul.

An invisible shackle suddenly collapsed.

The bloody mouth disappeared.

The howling of ghosts and wolves disappeared.

Yi Chen was shocked to find that he was suddenly in a huge temple.

He sat high above the temple, with endless stars under his feet.

Among these stars, countless creatures were faintly prostrating themselves and trembling.

The divine staff in his hand seemed to have infinite power and could dominate everything in the world.

In the temple, there were singing and dancing.

There were enchanting goddesses, pure fairies, and his first love who had once moved his heart...

They were dancing gracefully, or with affection, or biting their red lips.

There were thousands of postures, alluring and soul-stirring, all just to attract his eyes and pity.

Deep in Yi Chen's heart, an invisible flame was burning and expanding.

His eyes were sometimes clear and sometimes blurred.

He was a god who dominated the world, but his will to resist told him that this was not real.

He didn't want to believe that this divine power and power that dominated everything was illusory, but he always felt that something was not satisfactory.

A hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

He threw the scepter in his hand away.

His chaotic thoughts finally became clearer.

What he wanted was not the scepter that could dominate everything, but the power to dominate everything.

Buzz!

The whole world collapsed and dissipated.

He suddenly opened his eyes, and a strong breath rushed into the sky.

The wind and clouds surged.

The sky and the earth changed color.

Above the clear valley, dark clouds suddenly gathered, and there was a faint flash of terrifying lightning.

The terrifying aura made tens of thousands of tribesmen in the valley look up at the sky with some palpitations.

Outside the stone house, two guards prostrated themselves on the ground.
