After Chu Zhou returned to the Dongfang Family, he immediately began to retreat.
Time flies so fast, half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
In the secret room, Chu Zhou slowly opened his eyes, and a vast spiritual pressure instantly filled the air from him.
The hard wall of the secret room suddenly felt strong invisible pressure, and dense spider web cracks appeared.
"Half a year has passed before I knew it, and I am already eighteen years old!"
"I don't know, what's the situation outside now?"
Chu Zhou sighed deeply.
This time, it was the longest time he had spent in seclusion since he started practicing.

In the past six months, Chu Zhou had refined a total of 7 drops of Beast King essence and blood.
4 of these drops he obtained from the Western world.
There are also two drops, which were obtained by Oriental Pearl after auctioning the weapons, equipment and ore materials given to her by Chu Zhou, using the proceeds from the auction, and then exchanging them from the two king families through the channels of the Dongfang family.
There is also a drop of the beast king's essence and blood, which Yuan Bingmei sent secretly.
Using the attribute points obtained from the transformation of these 7 drops of Beast King's essence and blood, he used the two spiritual attributes of 'perception' and 'spiritual barrier' developed during the retreat to complete Nirvana.
His current number of nirvanas has reached twenty-three times.
The remaining attribute points, which were not enough to complete another spiritual nirvana, were used by him to improve many skills such as 'Titanium Golden Body', 'Hurricane Book', and 'Hand of the Earth'.
'Book of Hurricane' and 'Hand of the Earth', two SS-level combat skills, were upgraded to SSS level by him.
The 'Titanium Golden Body', which Chu Zhou has always attached great importance to, has also been forcibly upgraded to the ninth level of the Titanium Golden Body (the Infinite Body) by Chu Zhou.
The 'Titanium Golden Body' was also promoted to the SSS level body-building technique.
This originally lost body-building technique, in Chu Zhou's hands, was not only completely restored, but also surpassed its peak, becoming the only SSS-level body-building technique on earth.
As for how strong the ninth level of the Titanium Golden Body [Wuji Body] is, even Chu Zhou himself is not very clear. He can only know after using it and fighting other evenly matched opponents.
"I have been in seclusion for half a year, and even spent my eighteenth birthday in seclusion... Now it's time to come out of seclusion!"
Chu Zhou muttered to himself and pressed a red button next to him to notify Oriental Pearl that his retreat was over.
Soon, Oriental Pearl appeared in front of Chu Zhou with a smile: "Congratulations on completing the retreat!"
"Yes, it's indeed worthy of congratulations. It's been half a year, it's not easy!"
Chu Zhou smiled, stood up, and put his arms around Dongfang Mingzhu's plump body.
"You have gained quite a lot in the past six months. You have been successfully promoted to a limiter. Moreover, you have been directly promoted to a senior limiter."
He looked at her and smiled.
"It all depends on the genetic medicines you gave me, especially the 6 high-level genetic enhancement fluids. Otherwise, I would not have been able to be promoted to a limiter so smoothly and become a high-level limiter so quickly."
Oriental Pearl is in high spirits. With the support of a large number of precious genetic medicines, her progress in the past six months has been rapid.
She breaks down even the barriers between those in control and those with boundaries.
After that, she was quickly promoted to the advanced boundary level.
Such a rapid promotion was something she had never experienced before.
However, she also knew that the main reason why she was promoted so quickly was because Chu Zhou gave her a large amount of precious genetic medicines.
Without the support of so many genetic medicines, she would probably still be wandering in the realm of the controller.
Although Chu Zhou has been in seclusion for the past six months, he is not in seclusion. He often meets with the Oriental Pearl.
Therefore, after the retreat this time, the two of them did not appear too excited.
They walked out of the secret room calmly and hand in hand.
"How's the situation outside?"
While walking, Chu Zhou asked.
Oriental Pearl frowned slightly and said: "In the past six months, the first two months were fine and relatively calm. But after the third month, the situation began to become more and more tense."
"First of all, the beast tides and offensives around the world have begun to rapidly intensify."
"In the past, beast kings usually hid behind the scenes and rarely took the initiative in person. But now, it has become the norm for beast kings to take the initiative."
"Whether it is the four lines of defense at our Guangdong base or the defense lines at bases around the world, the number of deaths has increased dramatically in the past six months... The pressure on all defense lines is increasing."
"Secondly, the Crescent Organization, the Earth Organization, and the Shadow Alliance, these three major organizations have also made frequent big moves. These three major organizations have now begun to establish their own stations in our human base city openly."
"What's even more worrying is that many families and forces among us humans have also officially announced that they will join the three major organizations. Moreover, they have also begun to suppress other families and forces, snatching the interests of other families, and squeezing the living space of other families. …”
"...Our Dongfang Family has also encountered some overt and covert suppression. However, out of fear of you, those people did not dare to go too far, so our Dongfang Family is fine for the time being."
"However, if this continues, I feel like something is going to go wrong!"
After listening to Oriental Pearl's words, Chu Zhou also frowned.
He didn't expect that the situation would deteriorate to this extent in just half a year.
Obviously, the current situation of mankind is very dangerous, and it is very likely that we have reached the eve of a crisis that is about to break out.
However, when he thought of what Tang Yuanqing said half a year ago, he felt a little relieved.
Since the three major martial arts schools and the Human Alliance are prepared, they must have ways to contain the crisis.
"By the way, after telling you so much bad news, now I have some good news for you!" A bright smile suddenly appeared on Oriental Pearl's face.
"What's the good news?" Chu Zhou looked curious.
"Your three teammates, namely Ling Zhan, Shi Meng, and Li Qingshi, are doing great now!"
"Half a year ago, after they obtained your advanced gene-enhancing fluid, in less than a month, they were all successfully promoted to controllers."
"After they were promoted to controllers, they performed very well on the front line. After you and Xie Longyuan, they became the three rookies who quickly rose up in the southern front line. Now the three of them, known as the 'Golden Iron Triangle', all have Get your own title!"
"Among them, Ling Zhan is called the 'Cold Sword', Shi Meng is called the 'Fist Fighter', and Li Qingshi is called the 'Soul Chasing Thorn'."
"Now the three of them are shining brightly on the front line and are famous all over the world. They are about to catch up with Xie Longyuan, the 'Blood Sword' who was once as famous as you."
Oriental Pearl said with a smile.
Chu Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then his face lit up. This was indeed good news. He didn't arrive either. Ling Zhan and the other two people had risen so quickly.
"...'Golden Iron Triangle'? It's interesting. The three of them were known as the three weirdos in Jiangcheng in high school. Now it seems that the three of them are indeed the most harmonious combination."
Chu Zhou also smiled. He, the captain, was also happy for the rise of Ling Zhan and the others.
…
However, at the front line of the southern supply base, the "Golden Iron Triangle" that Chu Zhou and Oriental Pearl were talking about, Ling Zhan and the three of them, were facing an unprecedented and dangerous battle at this moment.
"Something's wrong, Ling Zhan, Shi Meng, something's not right... Today's beast tide is so powerful that it's many times stronger than yesterday. I always feel like something important is going to happen."
Li Qingshi killed dozens of monsters that were close to her in an instant. Regardless of the pieces of monster meat stuck to her clothes, she ducked to Ling Zhan and Shi Meng, who were also covered in blood, and spoke in a rapid voice.
"There's no need to feel it...something big has indeed happened! Look!"
Ling Zhan stood on a mountain of corpses, pointing into the distance with an ugly look on his face.
Li Qingshi and Shi Meng looked in the direction pointed by Ling Zhan, and their expressions suddenly changed.
I saw endless monsters in the distance, rushing in like a tide.
The sky, the air, and the ground are all densely packed with monsters.
If that was all, it wouldn't make Ling Zhan and the others change their minds. They were already used to it.
The reason why their expressions changed drastically was because there were a large number of control-level monsters and boundary-level monsters in the beast tide that appeared this time.
This has never happened before.
What made them even more frightened was that among the tsunami-like beast tide, there were five towering behemoths, which were rapidly approaching the front line with the beast tide.
"The Beast King...there are five Beast Kings!"
Shi Meng swallowed hard, and drops of sweat flowed down his cheeks.
