"You, you did it on purpose?" General Yu Long looked at Lu Lin and couldn’t help but take a step back. Think about it, Yu Long, who had made waves in the Yanliu Clan Royal City for many years, experienced numerous plots, conspiracies, and struggles, had never expected to fall into the hands of a young kid like Lu Lin here. This left him with no place to put his old face. "I didn’t do it on purpose, but since you’ve promised to tell me your secret, you can’t leave anything out." Lu Lin said, withdrawing the One-Eyed Demon Knife, and placed a hand on General Yu Long’s shoulder, making him sit down. General Yu Long wanted to struggle, but Lu Lin’s strength seemed endless, pressing him to the ground. General Yu Long looked at Lu Lin in shock. How long had it been, and Lu Lin’s strength had increased again? "Alright, I’ll tell you." "The origin of our Extraordinary Species is now beyond verification, but as ancient legends have it, we are ’garbage’ abandoned here, forever unable to return to the real world." General Yu Long sat down in despair and began to tell Lu Lin about the origins and secrets of the Extraordinary Species. Many unspecified years ago, their ancestors were driven and abandoned to fend for themselves on this continent. Though abandoned here, the strength of the Extraordinary Species allowed them to contend with the Exotic Beast Clan, and at that time, the exotic beasts were disorganized, not to mention the current Demon God Kingdom, which didn’t even have a proper tribe. As long as the Extraordinary Species’ Star Soldiers and Star Generals were willing, they could freely enter and exit the exotic beasts’ territory, slaughtering and collecting treasures within, hoping to someday gain favor from the real world to facilitate their return. Even though all the ancestors of the Extraordinary Species knew they had no chance of returning. Yet they used this reason to deceive generations of descendants. They must never forget they come from a noble world. But as time passed, this ancient goal evolved into a legend. The older generation of ancestors left, and the new generation of Extraordinary Species born in the Exotic Battlefield never went to Longyuan, always believing it to be a lie or simply a legend. They treated the Exotic Battlefield as their homeland, aggressively occupying the exotic beasts’ habitat. They built cities, slaughtered exotic beasts, and created their own era, their own civilization. At that time, the Extraordinary Species were truly the overlords of the Exotic Battlefield, with countless genius strongmen emerging each year. And at that time, a great leader emerged among the Exotic Beast Clan. It was immensely powerful and undefeatable. It could fly and burrow, as fast as lightning. From the beginning, it chose a correct path of resistance. In a hundred years, the number of powerful Extraordinary Species slain by its ambushes exceeded a thousand. Facing such a terrifying exotic beast, the Extraordinary Species were scared. They began to retreat, contract, and gather. They wanted to face off with that leader and eradicate the threat. But the clever leader gave the Extraordinary Species no opportunity. One by one, seasoned strongmen fell, one by one, high-ranking forces were ambushed and devoured. The Extraordinary Species finally realized they were not the leader’s match, so they sent people to negotiate peace. The Exotic Beast Leader did not meet with the envoy from the Extraordinary Species, but from that point on, it never ambushed any Extraordinary humans again. Hundreds of years later, a new force emerged among the Exotic Beast Clan. That was the predecessor of the Demon God Kingdom, the Demon God Tribe. Under the leadership of that leader, the Demon God Tribe continued to grow and expand, and strong individuals from various tribes were subdued. When the Demon God Kingdom was finally established, they had become far more powerful than the Extraordinary Species. Several hundred years later, a group of people arrived at the Exotic Battlefield. They didn’t come for drumming and Ming Jin, but the Saint and his followers, claiming to be the Hundreds of Gods, arrived here to subjugate the indigenous forces. But how could the Extraordinary Species, who had just been battered by the exotic beasts and regained their vitality, possibly submit to a team of only a hundred or so? A great war broke out. The Saint died in battle, the Hundreds of Gods were annihilated. But the Extraordinary Species also suffered a grievous injury, and in the face of the increasingly powerful Demon God Kingdom, they were completely reduced to a second-rate power. After that, the Exotic Battlefield entered a relatively peaceful period. Whether it was the Alien Race or exotic beasts, they all began to develop rapidly. A troop of soldiers dressed in golden armor and wielding golden swords broke into the Exotic Battlefield, becoming its true rulers. Whether it was the leader of the exotic beasts or the few strongmen among the Alien Race, they could only submit to their power, obediently following orders, delivering over ten thousand clan members every year for selection and training. Upon meeting standards, they would be given the chance to go to Longyuan. Initially, the Alien Race and exotic beasts contended over this matter, hoping their candidates could secure more spots to enter the Longyuan World. But hope after hope, and disappointment after disappointment. Those who entered the Longyuan World, whether people or exotic beasts, never sent out any news. Slowly, a rumor spread in the Exotic Battlefield that the so-called selection of talents by drumming and Ming Jin was actually to serve as slaves for those big shots in the Longyuan World, subject to arbitrary killing, with no chance of standing out. In the next hundred years. When asked what those talented individuals selected from various clans did in the Longyuan World, drumming and Ming Jin told them outright with no concealment. Slave Soldiers. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝘯𝘦𝘵 The talented individuals who passed the tests had no choice. Upon entering the Longyuan World, they could only become slave soldiers, cannon fodder, doing the most basic, exhausting, and dangerous work. Never to see the light of day. Lu Lin nodded, finally understanding why Chen Danqing and them teased him back then. Lu Lin was so valuable to humans, how could they possibly let him become a slave soldier with no future? That’s a waste of talent. "Regarding the Exotic Battlefield, oh, you call it the Tianyuan Continent, I’ve now understood its history pretty well." "However, I have a question." "How did humans enter here?" General Yu Long thought carefully for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don’t know. Humans suddenly appeared on the Tianyuan Continent, I’m not clear about this." "However, I do know why, for a thousand years, only a few Star General-level combat forces have emerged among humans." "That’s because the God of Black Shark, leader of the ten Gods, has severed the Human Race’s thousand-year fortune by some means." "Severed the Human Race’s thousand-year fortune?" Lu Lin was shocked inside, feeling that he had now uncovered a true secret. As far as Lu Lin was concerned, the God of Black Shark was merely a Martial Artist with relatively powerful cultivation. And yet he wants to call himself a god? Even big shots like Chen Buming have never claimed to be any kind of god, and yet a mere black shark dares to declare itself a god. "Is there a way to restore the Human Race’s fortune?" The concept of fortune is too mysterious. If it were Lu Lin before, he certainly wouldn’t believe such a claim. But he clearly remembered that the year he was born coincided with the thousand-year anniversary of humans entering the Exotic Battlefield. Could it be that Lu Lin was the legendary Chosen One? To lead the Human Federation to glory as a super patron? How could that be possible? Lu Lin couldn’t help but smile inwardly. Although he was a Transversal, possessing combat power and cultivation speed unmatched by ordinary people, Lu Lin didn’t think he was the legendary savior. What kind of savior would come from a poor family that had to take out loans for his education? What kind of savior would only awaken to a regular Earth Talent? What kind of savior would get hunted by an Alien Star General right after reaching the sixth level? Lu Lin was willing to contribute his strength to the Human Federation, but he had no desire to become the savior of humans. After all, being a savior is too tiring; living a carefree life as an ordinary person is much easier. Contributing to the federation knows no rank, he would be better off blending into the Titled King Division and guiding more Titled Kings for humanity. Savior, whoever wants to be one can go right ahead. General Yu Long nodded affirmatively, making eye contact with Lu Lin. Lu Lin was somewhat excited. If he could find a way to restore the Human Race’s fortune, he would report it immediately, regardless of the cost or sacrifice necessary to accomplish it. He wouldn’t even need to wait to return; as long as Yu Long was willing to speak, Lu Lin would immediately contact Lv Susu to inform her of this matter. "I only heard Black Shark mention it before, to get the specifics, you’ll have to ask Black Shark yourself." Seeing Lu Lin’s eagerness, Yu Long couldn’t help but smile slightly at the corner of his mouth. Finally got one back. "You damn well don’t know a thing, saying it for nothing." Lu Lin couldn’t hold back and directly lashed out at General Yu Long. But Yu Long looked as if he didn’t care at all about Lu Lin’s emotions, as if he could spit in his face and just let it dry. "I don’t care if you really don’t know or if you’re pretending not to know." "If you don’t want to die, then tell me now." Lu Lin suspected that this General Yu Long was trying to loop around him for benefits and convenience. But Lu Lin wouldn’t indulge his bad attitude. Right now, General Yu Long was a prisoner, and Lu Lin was the master of Bu Ming Villa, so there’s no reason for the master to beg a prisoner. With that in mind, Lu Lin once again summoned from the Consciousness Universe. Without saying another word, he slashed directly at General Yu Long’s neck. "Lu Lin, I really don’t know, I’ve told you everything I knew." "Don’t kill me, I’m still useful, I can be your sparring partner." "You know, I’m one of the few knife masters among the Extraordinary Species, and now I’m willing to become your sparring partner, can’t you give me a chance?" Lu Lin shook his head. He’s not doing this to kill Yu Long. If it was for Spiritual Strength, Lu Lin still had the mental body of a Rui Ge who invaded Chongnuo City initially locked in his Star Power Domain, along with the mental bodies of the brothers Xiong Fei and Xiong Yue stored there fresh. Whenever Lu Lin needs, he can absorb these people’s Spiritual Strength at any time, so right now, Lu Lin does not lack Spiritual Strength and naturally has no use for Yu Long. He mainly saw that the timing was right. After Lu Lin’s previous weakening, General Yu Long’s Spiritual Strength, which was estimated to exceed 3000 points, had already been mostly absorbed by Lu Lin. As long as he holds on a little longer, he can weaken General Yu Long’s Spiritual Strength to below 1000 points. By that time, Lu Lin can knead him into whatever shape he wants. Just as Lu Lin was engaged in "friendly negotiations" with General Yu Long, Zhu Henian, who was closest to the mission, had already arrived near the grassland gully, preparing to check for Lu Lin’s whereabouts. Grassland gully, a paradise of toxins. Only viewing that eerie, green mist-filled ravine from a distance left Zhu Henian and his companions speechless with horror. This is the grassland gully they are about to enter? Why does it look a bit terrifying? Zhu Henian thoughtfully applied "detoxification," "dispel," "speed up recovery," and "increase strength" buffs to each teammate, somewhat easing their expressions. This way, they probably won’t die inside the grassland gully... right?
