Zhang Tianwei said that he only passed on the Dao tradition and didn't care whether his apprentice went to the Xianling race (Fairy race) or fought for them.

Long Yandao believed this.

In fact, with Long Yandao's pride, Zhang Tianwei was the only one in the entire Tier 2 battlefield he truly admired.

After all, the man had real strength.

Moreover, although Zhang Tianwei wasn't low-key, he had always maintained excellent relationships with all parties.

Another point was that this Xianling acted with great principle.

He kept his word.

Ji Wei was reluctant to part and stood next to Lin Chen, asking, "Then, do you want to come with me to the Xianling Kingdom?"

"I can't!"

Lin Chen replied, "I'm a human, and the people of Blue Star still rely on me. You wouldn't want me to abandon my own race, would you?"

Ji Wei pouted.

Clearly, she wasn't happy.

But Zhang Tianwei spoke, "The ones we can rely on most are our own people. Even if there are all sorts of contradictions within the race, and people don't share the same heart, you'll find that when disaster strikes, those who support you will mostly be from your own race. So, you must never abandon your own people. Lin Chen, I'm accepting you as my disciple today, but I won't attack the Jing clan. That's the principle."

You are my disciple.

But they are my people.

So, I won't help either side. You solve it yourselves.

Perhaps this was one of Zhang Tianwei's principles.

But Zhang Tianwei emphasized to Lin Chen again that he couldn't abandon his own people.

What did this mean?

Why did he emphasize this point in particular?

"Many things will be gradually understood as you cultivate and advance... Even if you carry a lot on your shoulders, you'll eventually gain something as long as you carry it."

Zhang Tianwei said some nonsensical things to Lin Chen.

Seeing that Lin Chen still didn't understand, he wasn't annoyed but smiled slightly, "Alright, the Tier 2 battlefield is about to settle. Hurry back with the Duke of Protectorate! After the settlement, if you have nothing to do in the Dragon Spirit Kingdom, you can cross the ocean and visit the Saintess or me in the Xianling Kingdom. If you don't understand what I said just now, you can ask the Duke of Protectorate. I believe he must have already realized something."

Lin Chen nodded, showing no reaction.

But Long Yandao's expression changed slightly...

Everyone bid farewell.

Then, they went their separate ways.

"Hehe, Lin Chen, today I, Zhan Wang (War King), also shot the moon with an arrow, breaking Jing Qicang's momentum! We can be considered staunch allies, right? Haha... You old thing, don't deny it. I helped you a lot this time. You can't forget that. Farewell!"

Aliquis left with a hearty laugh.

Then, the remaining three boarded an airship and left.

On the way, Lin Chen asked Long Yandao, "Duke of Protectorate, what did my master mean by what he said just now? He told me to ask you."

Long Yandao gave Lin Chen a deep look. After a moment, he said to Lin Chen and Pang Jia, "Actually, Zhang Tianwei's words were very straightforward. He wants you to protect your own race and people. Do you think that I'm unaware of the infighting within the Dragon Spirit Kingdom? Why would I still desperately support the battlefield? I am Long Yandao. Those guys are just insects! But I will still guard the Dragon Spirit Kingdom... Because, as my cultivation improves daily and I get closer to the realm of God, I feel that becoming a God is increasingly out of reach."

"Race and people are related to becoming a God?" Lin Chen frowned.

"Actually, it's too early to talk about this with you. You're too far from that realm... But I want to tell you that even I am still far from that realm."

Long Yandao shook his head and sighed.

God!

This realm was too far away.

Even though he was already at the peak of the Third Revolution.

But if you reach this realm, you will find...

How could it be so easy?

There was no road ahead.

Or rather...

The road was blocked!

Long Yandao sighed with emotion.

Lin Chen was puzzled, "Far? I don't think it's far! This time, I borrowed a sword to defeat the demigod Jing Xiao, who seemed only a little weaker than the Duke of Protectorate... Even without borrowing a sword, I defeated Eagle Star. He was also at the peak of the Third Revolution. Moreover, from the Cataclysm until now, it's only been a little over two months, and I've gone from level 120 to the mid-stage of the Second Revolution."

*Pfft*...

Long Yandao almost spat out a mouthful of old blood!

Damn it!

Was this kid showing off in front of me?

You're amazing, right?

Mid-stage of the Second Revolution and able to defy a demigod!

Able to directly punish the peak of the Third Revolution without borrowing a sword...

Mid-stage of the Second Revolution in less than three months!

Alright, you're awesome.

"Then don't ask me!"

Long Yandao was a little anxious.

He was blowing his beard and glaring.

"Hehe, can you be more direct when you speak?" Lin Chen didn't care.

When did the usually straightforward Long Yandao start speaking circuitously?

He really didn't like it!

Just tell me directly what the relationship between race and becoming a God is!

"Divine power, the power of faith!"

Long Yandao rolled his eyes and said, "I don't know much either. Don't listen to that old guy Zhang Tianwei's nonsense. How am I close to becoming a God? I'm still far away! You want me to explain the power of faith to you now? What can I use to explain it? I'm not at the Fourth Revolution. Really!"

Long Yandao was angry.

He started to ignore people.

He closed his eyes to rest.

He was angered.

Too infuriating!

How could the human race have such a monster?

How could Lin Chen be stronger than me, Long Yandao, when he was at the mid-stage of the Second Revolution?

Damn it!

Could the title of the ceiling of the human race's combat power still be maintained?

No way!

I have to think of a way...

Right!

Think of a backup title.

Get a spare tire.

If that day really comes in the future when I am completely surpassed by Lin Chen and left behind, I can just change the title directly, plug and play, wouldn't that be great?

"Hehe, kid, you're still too tender if you want to show off in front of me!"

Long Yandao chuckled in his heart.

What title should it be?

Then it should be called... the Eternal Guardian God of the Human Race!

After all, I have guarded the human race for a hundred years!

At this moment, Lin Chen was extremely shocked.

Divine power, the power of faith...

The road to becoming a God!

All along, Lin Chen had directly leveled up or advanced when his experience points reached the maximum.

There had never been a situation where his experience points were full but he couldn't level up.

But today, Long Yandao told him... Kid, I've walked the same path as you, but now I'm stuck at the peak of the Third Revolution and don't see the road ahead!

No wonder Long Yandao was still at the peak of the Third Revolution.

No wonder A'Niu said that he had been in the sect for ten years, and he didn't know how long he had cultivated before entering, but... he was still at the peak of the Third Revolution.

There was also Jing Xiao, Jing Qicang, Jing Jiucheng...

Yang Liuxin.

Tiger Robe!

Even the Dark Night Queen whom he had never met...

Everyone was at the peak of the Third Revolution!

But they had all cultivated for who knows how long!

No one was at the Fourth Revolution!

Why?

Because the Fourth Revolution was a God.

Even a weak God was still a God!

Kong Yan and Kong Lin had existed for who knows how long.

But they were also at the Third Revolution.

So...

In this world, a God is a God!

Are mortals forever mortals?

What is the power of faith?

Please, is there still faith in the world now?

Then, is the road to becoming a God still there, or has it been blocked?

At this moment, Lin Chen's mind was full of questions.

Because Zhang Tianwei and Long Yandao's words contained too much information.

Too much!

But it was also confusing...

It was useless to ask again.

After all, Long Yandao was not a God yet!

He was not a God, not at the Fourth Revolution.

He had not seen the scenery of that realm.

How could he explain the questions in Lin Chen's mind?

On the way back, the three were silent.

They were approaching the main city of the human race when Long Yandao finally spoke, "Don't look so gloomy. You're still far from becoming a God. Maybe you'll have a chance? Didn't Zhang Tianwei tell you not to abandon your own people? His realm is deeper than mine. Perhaps he has already found the road, and this road is related to the race? Alright, this time we have returned with a full load! The first place in the Tier 2 battlefield. Who knows how many resources will be rewarded... This is our glory. Be happy!"

As expected of Long Yandao.

He would never miss the opportunity to show off.

At this moment, his voice shook the heavens and the earth, "Long Yandao, Duke of Protectorate of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom, Lin Chen, Loyal Earl of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom, and... cough, Pang Jia, one of the commanders of the Guardian Dragon Army, went to the Divine City to participate in the Ruins War and returned with a full load! Two Third Revolution powerhouses were killed, and countless other enemies were defeated. The Dragon Spirit Kingdom's Tier 2 battlefield score was a record high of 1596 points!"

"This feat is unprecedented. Let us celebrate!"

"This glory belongs to the entire human race. Let us celebrate again!"

"Lin Chen fought bravely on all sides and defeated a demigod with his sword. Another strong man has emerged in our human race. We should celebrate!"

"I, Long Yandao, fought nine enemies alone without being defeated. My achievements are second only to Zhang Tianwei, and I am the ceiling of the human race's combat power. I am proud of the heroes. Let us celebrate even more!"

"Pass down my marshal's order. All three armies of the Guardian Dragon Army will have three days off!"

"Everyone, prepare to receive the battlefield rewards and celebrate wildly!"

As Long Yandao's voice spread throughout the land, all the humans cheered and celebrated wildly.

"The human race is number one!"

"Haha, did I hear correctly? 1596 points?"

"It's really unprecedented, the best result in history!"

"Am I dreaming? We... we, the human race, are number one, even stronger than the Xianling race!"

"Didn't you hear? This time, the Duke of Protectorate fought nine enemies alone. Moreover, our Middle Army Commander Lin Chen even reversed the judgment on a demigod!"

"Marshal is mighty, Lin Chen is mighty!"

"Too vulgar. Listen to me: Marshal is invincible, Lin Chen is invincible!"

"Damn, isn't yours vulgar too?"

"..."

The entire Guardian Dragon Army, including the Dragon Victory Army, flocked to the main city.

At this moment, Long Yandao and Lin Chen on the airship stood side by side.

Pang Jia had been very tactful and left.

There was no way. Although there was glory for him in this, he really didn't have the confidence to stand with these two show-offs... Mainly, whether it was strength or achievements, it seemed that he was no longer on the same level as Lin Chen.

So he might as well go down!

Strive to improve in the future.

I, Pang Jia, can't be the first or second in the human race, but I can be the third, right?

One day, I will definitely be third!

"Marshal is invincible, Lin Chen is invincible!"

"Marshal is mighty, Lin Chen is mighty!"

"..."

Everyone's slogans were loud.

Even many races came to watch from the sky.

After all, this was a historic moment!

The battlefield score broke the ceiling at this level!

Not 666!

Not 888!

Not even 998!

It was 1596 points!

Unprecedented!

In the future... there would probably be few who could achieve this.

Even Tiger Robe came to the sky, and he said loudly, "The Flying Tiger Clan is here to congratulate the human race on becoming number one on the battlefield!"

"Why do I hear a bit of hypocrisy? Haha, regardless of whether it's true or false... Tiger Robe, my human race accepts your congratulations!" Long Yandao laughed boldly.

Aliquis also came, and he brought Mo Yi with him, saying to Lin Chen, "Why do I hear that there's an old shameless guy who likes to steal other people's credit? He even said that he killed two Third Revolution powerhouses in this battle... Hehe, those were killed by Lin Chen. What does it have to do with you?"

"Aliquis, I know you're jealous of me, but I'll tell you, if it weren't for my, Long Yandao, fighting nine enemies alone and holding them back, could he have reversed the judgment on Jing Xiao? Could he have defeated Eagle Star with his sword?"

Long Yandao wasn't polite at all.

Damn it!

Didn't you know it was rude to expose someone's shortcomings?

This Aliquis was here to cause trouble!

Damn it!

Didn't the Duke of Protectorate need face?

I am still the number one in the human race!

My persona cannot collapse!

No way, even if there is a share of the credit for me, what if I have to forcefully have a share?

Anyway, after returning to the country, the reward that should be given to Lin Chen won't be lacking!

Long Yandao was not polite at all, "If the War King is here to cause trouble today, then I'm sorry, please leave. My human race does not welcome guests who cause trouble!"

"Tch."

Aliquis directly said to Lin Chen, "Lin Chen, I came this time, first to congratulate you, second to represent the Dark Night Queen and invite you to the Ice Kingdom to participate in my elf race's harvest festival, and third... hehe, you can say it, Princess."

"Lin Chen, congratulations!" Mo Yi walked directly to Lin Chen's side, put a flower crown on Lin Chen's head, and said shyly, "This is the Jieyu flower (understanding flower) of the elf race. Wearing a crown made of it can help you abandon all your troubles."

In fact, in the elf race, giving a Jieyu flower crown had another meaning...

That was to show love!

Therefore, Mo Yi was shy.

Lin Chen didn't understand anything and nodded directly, "Thank you, this flower is really good... Oh, why haven't I seen anyone give the Duke of Protectorate flowers?"

"Hmph, you kid... forget it."

Long Yandao originally wanted to remind Lin Chen that it was best not to accept this flower easily, but Lin Chen directly ridiculed him as soon as he opened his mouth, so why should I remind you? You little brat, just be smug.

You're happy now, but in the future, you'll be in a difficult situation.

At that time, let's see what you do!

The Xianling race's Saintess had just left, and now an elf race's princess had come...

Hehe, are you still happy?

You'll have a hard time in the future!

……

Under the spotlight, accompanied by the slogans of congratulations from all the Guardian Dragon Army, Lin Chen took out all the points tokens.

In total, 1500 points!

Plus the 96 points from the Dragon Spirit Kingdom before...

Lin Chen's voice shook the heavens and the earth, "Human race, Dragon Spirit Kingdom, points settlement!"

The next moment, the battlefield leaderboard came out.

The first was the human race.

1596 points!

Countless rays of light surged like waves from the list to the human race...

Those were all kinds of resources!

Among them, there was also a soul crystal mine!

An entire soul crystal mine a hundred times larger than the mine outside Sky Moon City!

Chapter 2 Still four thousand words.

Today is another day with twenty thousand words. Eight thousand words have already been updated.

Another chapter will be updated at lunchtime.

Congratulations to Lin Chen!

Also congratulations to the human race!
