The happy live stream ended after selling the cultivation techniques, but Chu Yang's broadcast left a deep impression on everyone.
They now knew about the Xiezhu invasion in three years. While they didn't collapse emotionally like Qin Xiaoxiao, they felt a shadow looming over them.
In comparison, Chu Yang's stunt of scaring the United States with a small sun seemed more like entertainment.
However, the widespread panic that was expected did not materialize, which was attributed to Chu Yang's confidence during the live stream.
Coupled with the massive fireball he created when scaring the United States, Chu Yang's image in people's minds was once again refreshed.
Already seemingly unreachable, he was now unfathomably mysterious.
To the entire world, Chu Yang was a true god!
If the god said it was fine, then it was fine!
If the god said they should work hard, then they couldn't slack off!
The footage of the Xiezhu invasion showed many people the horror of the Xiezhu.
Later close-up shots allowed some viewers to see themselves being torn apart, and the feeling of watching their future selves being killed had a profound impact on their minds.
If their strength remained the same at that time, it would be a dead end!
Immortal Brother couldn't protect everyone; if he could, why would he go to such great lengths to cultivate talent?
Few people doubted the authenticity of the matter, as a powerful being like Chu Yang, who could destroy the world with a wave of his hand, had no reason to lie to them.
The three-day rest period quickly ended, and it was suddenly time to enter the Time Secret Realm.
Although Zhang Xiaohu had not yet obtained what could make his father's legs grow back, after becoming famous overnight, he had truly soared.
The country had directly promised him that his family would receive the best protection, and his father would get the best prosthetics in the world!
Even though Wang Zhicheng's recruitment of Zhang Xiaohu was intercepted by Chu Yang, it didn't matter.
For Xia Guo, anyone Chu Yang took a liking to must have extraordinary qualities.
For such talents, it didn't matter whether they joined the army or not. As Chu Yang said, allowing them to cultivate in a free state would be more beneficial for their growth.
Those identified as having heavenly talent would surely become pillars of support in the future fight against the Xiezhu.
Since Chu Yang took notice of Zhang Xiaohu, it meant he was definitely not bad. Xia Guo was also a novice in immortal cultivation, and they couldn't provide the same excellent cultivation environment and resources as Chu Yang.
What they could do their best to achieve was to relieve the anxieties of the geniuses who risked their lives to cultivate in various dungeons.
The top five hundred individuals who qualified for the Monster Beast Secret Realm trial gathered at the plaza without exception.
Everyone's eyes sparkled with excitement, and compared to before, there was more fighting spirit!
Now, everyone knew what they were fighting for!
From the grand cause of all humanity to the more personal reasons of family and friends.
There was always a reason to fight desperately; no one wanted to be slaughtered like livestock by the Xiezhu as seen in the video. They also wanted to tear those disgusting Xiezhu into pieces!
Xiao Dalong's family had all come to this Immortal Cultivation Era Plaza.
As the birthplace of immortal cultivation culture, the scale of the plaza was visibly expanding at an astonishing rate.
"It seems like today is the day they enter that Time Secret Realm. Did we come at the wrong time?"
"What's there to fear? They do their thing, it doesn't affect our aptitude assessment!"
"How dare you speak to your father like that? Be mindful! Don't lose that cultivation technique, it's worth over a billion!"
"Hmph! Do you think I'm still an elementary school student?"
"......"
As usual, at times like these, Chu Yang would deliver some words of wisdom to the assembled crowd.
"The flow of time in the Time Secret Realm is different from the outside. The appearance of the Time Secret Realm is mainly to allow you to accelerate your growth. A hundred times the time flow means you can have a hundred times more cultivation time than others! Your time here is seven days, which means seven hundred days inside."
"And this time, none of your actions will be broadcast live by me, meaning that whatever happens inside, will not be scrutinized by the public eye. You might encounter treasure-hunting killings, you might encounter betrayal from companions, I will not interfere with any of this! I will only be responsible for sending you back after seven days."
As soon as he said this, all the trial participants exchanged glances. They hadn't thought much of it before, but with Chu Yang's reminder, they suddenly realized that their companions were no longer safe.
Qin Xiaoxiao tugged at Luo Xiaowei's clothes and cautiously asked, "Wei, don't worry, I definitely won't stab you in the back."
Luo Xiaowei's head filled with three question marks: "Are you out of your mind?"
Qin Xiaoxiao's face darkened: "What are you talking about?"
Luo Xiaowei said with a sigh, "You fool, you should know that I am the ancestor of sword cultivators. If you stab me in the back, you'll only be hurting yourself!"
Qin Xiaoxiao couldn't stand it and kicked him in the behind.
Bai Nianchen appeared calm and collected, seemingly unconcerned about being attacked by others.
Li Qingyun stood calmly, his gaze equally placid, yet imbued with strong confidence. He was like a boss among this group; let alone backstabbing, even a group attack wouldn't defeat him.
After a few days, Wang Teng's muscles had grown even larger. He clenched his fists, a formidable aura of blood surging from him, as if eagerly awaiting anyone foolish enough to provoke him.
Zhang Xiaohu didn't flinch at the strange looks from those around him. He was already someone willing to risk his life.
He had made a promise to the Xuan Yang Que, that he would definitely bring it out of the [Demonic Spirit Realm]. Therefore, he had two goals this time: one was to find a way to heal his father's legs, and the other was to find methods related to contract arts for beast tamers.
Even if his aptitude was poor, he wouldn't be afraid of these people!
At this moment, Chu Yang continued, "And among those entering the Time Secret Realm, in addition to the five hundred people present, there is also Ms. Xue Qianwei, Boss Xue."
"There's no need to worry about unfairness, as she won't be competing with you for resources. She will be opening an alchemy room inside, and anyone who has cultivated fire-attribute techniques can learn alchemy from Boss Xue in the secret realm. The pill recipes will be fully disclosed to apprentices. Of course, if you use Boss Xue's materials to refine pills, you will only get twenty percent, with the remainder belonging to Xiong Miao Group."
"And if you use your own materials, all the pills you refine will belong to you! If you find a pill recipe in the secret realm, you can let Boss Xue refine it first, and you will receive compensation of corresponding value after coming out!"
This was a method Chu Yang had devised, to have Xue Qianwei enter the secret realm as a sort of NPC character, thus turning her into a merciless alchemy tool, which would definitely be a great training experience!
