Chapter 1241
After all, the invasion of the core area was imminent, and the overwhelming pressure was like a heavy mountain, pressing down on his heart. He didn't want to be an enemy of the forces in the core area, but they were forcibly putting them in a hostile position.
If Honghuang City wants to grow and develop, it must make full use of its resources and advance steadily. However, people in the core area see this place as a tempting piece of cake, and Honghuang City naturally becomes their target of covetousness.
"Those standing here today are all talented individuals from the mid-level or even peripheral regions. Some time ago, people from the core region invaded the mid-level region, and the leaders and elders of the four major established factions were brutally murdered. You have all experienced these events firsthand, so I will not elaborate on them.
What I'm saying is that something even more terrifying is about to happen. The seal between the core area and the middle section is gradually being lifted, and when that happens, the crisis we face will be a hundred times more terrifying than before."
Ye Chongren's words were like a bombshell, instantly causing an uproar among the crowd below.
"It took us almost all our strength to fight off all three of them. Now that the seal is broken, they're coming out in full force. We..."
"Is God going to kill me in the middle?"
"Perhaps surrender is the right choice, otherwise there is no way to resist."
"Submit? Didn't the people of Shenjian Mountain submit? But in the end, they were still used as training resources. The Lord of Huangji Cave and the Lord of Floating Island both died because of this, and in the end, they were used as pawns."
"Yes, surrender may buy you a temporary life, but your descendants will be slaves forever."
There was a sudden commotion below. Aside from the Red Dust God-Slaying Army, many members of the six major factions were filled with despair, some even considering surrender. This was understandable, as the Red Dust God-Slaying Army held a firm faith. Their only belief was their ancestor, Ye Chongren. As long as Ye Chongren was around, they had nothing to fear.
"I know this may be despairing, but... it has become a fact." Ye Chongren spoke again, and the crowd below instantly became quiet.
"Give up, resist? I've never had such thoughts. A cultivator should advance despite difficulties, be brave and fearless, and have the spirit of sailing against the current and forging ahead bravely. Only in this way can one reach the pinnacle.
Moreover, you all know what happened before. Submission is also inevitable death. What kind of situation will future generations face?"
Ye Chongren paused, giving everyone time to think. After a brief silence, he continued, "What I need to do next is to concentrate all my strength and fully prepare for the upcoming battle. If any of you want to withdraw, and choose to surrender after they arrive, I, Ye Chongren, will not stop you!"
"We swear to fight to the death against the Ancestral Emperor..." The Red Dust God-Slaying Army erupted in an earth-shattering roar. The sound was like a surging wave, sweeping across the entirety of Honghuang City. "We swear to fight to the death against the Ancestral Emperor!" Wave after wave of shouts echoed, resounding through the sky.
Ye Chongren's heart surged with blood, his eyes burning. He took a step forward, looking down at the army he had single-handedly led, and shouted loudly: "Born fearless, fight to the end!"
"Born fearless, fight to the end..." The Red Dust God-killing Army followed Ye Chongren's voice and shouted in unison. Their voices were neat and powerful, full of firm belief and fearless courage.
This scene gave Meng Kongchan, Li Youtian, and the others goosebumps. They stared intently at Ye Chongren, watching him soar through the air with such vigor and determination, listening to the coordinated shouts that echoed in their ears, and their hearts were filled with emotion. Most of the six major factions that had arrived were the best of the younger generation, and the remaining elders had been leading figures of their respective eras in their youth. At this moment, hearing the words "Born fearless, fight to the end," their blood instantly ignited, and everyone clenched their fists, their eyes fixed with determination and resolve.
"What about you?" Ye Chongren looked at the people from the six major forces.
After a brief silence, someone shouted, "Never retreat!"
"Fight to the end, and never give in, even if it means death!"
"If they dare to come, leave them here and let these arrogant people have to lie on their backs for the rest of their lives!"
"That's right..."
Everyone's emotions were thoroughly aroused. Ye Chongren smiled with satisfaction. After their fighting spirit was fully aroused, he continued, "For the next month, you will stay in Honghuang City. I will use all my resources and try every possible way to improve your strength.
You have only one goal: to possess the power to resist those in the core area within a month! In addition, I will build a towering tower and use the resources to transform the world within it into a sacred place for cultivation. The flow of time within the tower is different from that outside, and the spiritual energy is thousands of times richer than outside.
All of you must enter the Tower of Babel to cultivate. The higher you go, the stronger the cultivation effect will be, but the pressure you will endure will also be greater."
Upon hearing this, everyone became excited again.
"Time flows at different speeds, is this true or false?"
"Damn, there's actually this method. Doesn't that mean that if I practice for a day inside, I can be used for several days outside?"
Ye Chongren knew clearly that not all of these people would be able to stand up in a month, but what he wanted was to use this selection method to pick out some people with both outstanding talent and strength, give them special care, and allow them to first have the ability to compete with the core area.
After arranging everything, Ye Chongren immediately retreated to cultivate. One day later, Honghuang City suddenly shook violently, as if the world had come to an end. Ye Chongren exerted his immense power and carved out a massive pagoda from the ground, which was surprisingly upside down. Each floor of the pagoda was a small world unto itself, containing mysterious and powerful forces.
On this day, Ye Chongren used his supernatural powers to swallow the sky and the earth, and with the power of Taoist fire, he refined all the resources.
Among them, a large part was refined into extremely rich spiritual power, almost liquefied, emitting an attractive luster; another equally large amount of resources was refined into pills, which have special uses.
Afterwards, Ye Chongren opened the starry world in his body, and the enormous power poured into the giant tower like a surging tide. It took a whole morning to completely integrate the power into it.
"From now on, the Tower of Babel is complete. Everyone, start practicing immediately!"
