Brand held the goblet and gently shook the liquid in the glass. The corners of his lips curled up slightly: "Don't underestimate it."
The four words "faint" made the people standing at the scene look at the sky involuntarily, and saw the scene that had not disappeared for a long time.
Today's Eastern Continent is already ridiculously strong. If some people who have never known it are added to help them, it may not be so easy by then.
The king frowned slightly, not because he didn't believe Brand's words, but because of the current strategy, except for the city land they had already occupied.
They didn't even have real contact with the bases where humans were concentrated. What they now occupied were abandoned by the Eastern Continent, which made the king a little unwilling.
"Send an order for Duke Michel to come to the Eastern Continent."
The soldier on the side bowed slightly: "Yes."
Duke Wein asked: "Your Majesty the King, if Duke Michel comes to the Eastern Continent, who will guard it overseas?"
The king looked down at him slightly, "What do you think?"
The king, who was already tall and strong, looked at Wayne, who was a head shorter than him, with a cold look in his eyes.
Wayne lowered his head slightly and tentatively said, "Why don't you let my family work for you?"
A mockery flashed in the king's eyes, and it was true. Then he laughed and patted Wayne on the shoulder: "Your family is full of talents, so you should stay on the battlefield and make more contributions."
Wayne was a little stunned, this was not in line with his expectations.
Then the king said: "Brand, you are seriously injured this time. You should go back and guard first."
Brand put the wine glass in his hand on the plate aside. There were always several slaves here waiting with plates at any time.
He lowered his eyes and said quietly: "Brand will do whatever His Majesty the King says."
The king is one of the people who knows Brand better. He knows that he has always spoken in this tone and tone, and he doesn't mind anything. Brand is still useful in his hands and must be kept.
As for the Venn family on the side, this family relied on its power and often interfered with his decisions.
Overseas rules all rely on military merit for promotion. As long as there are many members of the Venn family alive, rewards will be given based on merit. As for how many people can survive the next battle, it is not within the king's consideration.
When Wayne heard the king's arrangement, he felt a little unbalanced for a moment. He glared at Brand several times.
However, Brand seemed to have never seen his eyes and kept talking to the king.
After Wayne and others retreated, the only two people on the scene besides the slaves were the King and Brand.
Then Brand said: "Your Majesty the King, won't your arrangement make Wayne's family dissatisfied with you?"
The king took a glass of wine from the slave beside him and drank it in one gulp.
"It's not easy to clean up this family. Now I just have some excuses."
The Venn family was a huge noble before the end of the world. When the king overthrew the world, the Venn family resisted and wanted to become the king themselves.
In the end, there were too many superpowers following the king, and this suppressed their thoughts. Wayne's father at the time was killed by the current king.
If Wayne hadn't donated a lot of supplies and the entire family had to obey the king, they might have been killed by the current king.
At the beginning of the end of the world, when the world is in chaos, the first person to organize a powerful force will naturally have the sweetest cake.
Brand chuckled softly: "Your Majesty the King, it may not be of much use if I go back to guard the base camp, but you can rest assured that as long as you inform me, I will return here as soon as possible."
This is the function of Brand's hut. Wherever he has been, he can reach it instantly through that hut, as long as no one can find the existence of that hut.
The king knew that he had a secret power that could travel through space to various places. This was one of the reasons why he asked Brand to go back.
However, the scroll in the sky lingered for a long time, as if it was foreshadowing something.
Ye Shang, who was far away, looked at this scene and said quietly: "Did you do it?"
The door to the dark world stood next to her, and the darkness in the door frame distorted a few words: "It's not me, it's this world."
After reading this, Ye Shang raised his eyebrows, looked into the air, and then said calmly, "Transmit the energy you collected to me."
The door to the dark world paused for a moment at first, and then like a forced little daughter-in-law, the darkness in the door frame gradually accelerated and twisted, continuously transmitting energy to Ye Shang.
It dug and collected the energy on its own, and originally planned to give only a little bit to its owner, but who knew that she took the initiative to ask for it, and now it couldn't hide it.
Almost emptying the door to the dark world, Ye Shang stopped and said, "Okay."
After saying that, she sat cross-legged on the rooftop, absorbing this huge energy, the energy from the gate of the dark world, and instantly mobilized the originally silent Dantian in her body.
Countless energy wandered in her dantian, washing through every meridians. Her face was a little distorted, and her hair tied behind her was flying.
There was a breakthrough in her realm, and the Mahayana perfection clicked.
At the shattering moment, the picture scroll in the sky disappeared, the mirage in people's eyes also disappeared, and everyone saw the magical scene disappearing in the sky.
The next moment, the sky was covered by large swaths of dark clouds, and the sky suddenly became dark.
People in the base may not be able to see this strange scene, but almost all the people not far from City Z are immersed in it, looking at the frightening sky.
As if something was about to be suppressed, Ye Shang's figure gradually rose into the sky. Her figure at this moment looked too small in the center of the entire world.
Many people couldn't see her figure, and could only feel the dark clouds in the sky under the strong air pressure.
The light shadow flew out of Ye Shang's body and stood beside Ye Shang, with thunder rumbling in the air.
The Gate of Darkness floated in the air and came to the other side of Ye Shang, standing quietly, as if it was a silently guarding knight.
Ye Shang's hair was flying, and his robe was blown away by the wind at the same time.
The catastrophe that had been brewing in the sky for a long time finally began at this moment.
The first catastrophe fell, accompanied by thunder and lightning.
However, a strange scene happened. The Gate of Darkness directly absorbed the purple thunder tribulation that came down.
The posture of the Gate of Darkness is very strange. It floats across Ye Shang's head.
Ye Shang paused with his open arms, opened his eyes slightly and looked up at the door to the dark world.
She did not feel the impact of the thunder tribulation, which was completely different from her previous tribulations, and completely different from her previous tribulations in Xuantian Continent.
This dense black cloud never dissipated. After the Heavenly Tribulation was absorbed at the moment of the strike, it was obvious that it seemed to be stunned for a while, and it did not strike a second time for a long time.
The Gate of Darkness swallowed up the Heavenly Tribulation, but returned a lot of energy to Ye Shang's body the next moment.
Ye Shang was obviously startled. What was going on? The operation of the Dark World Gate was almost equivalent to a secret operation?
It absorbs all dangers and then converts them into energy to feed back to the owner. This is so cute.
Although Ye Shang was a little speechless, he felt that the changes in his body were the same as going through a heavenly tribulation, so he had no intention of stopping it from doing this.
After a long pause, the sky seemed to be a little irritated and began to charge up the second thunder.
Boom——Smashed down again, however, there was no change. It was still absorbed by the Gate of Darkness and fed back to Ye Shang.
There is no one like Ye Shang who has overcome the tribulation like her. It is estimated that no one in Xuantian Continent has overcome the tribulation like her. Not only is her life not in danger, but she can also increase her strength smoothly.
At this time, the overseas forces seemed to have felt it, and the king asked Brand and others to go and see what was going on.
Many people did not dare to approach here. Only Brand led some subordinates to the vicinity, and Mare, who was already dead.
He also brought someone to this area, but his expression was different from ordinary people, and even his appearance had changed somewhat from before.
His body seemed to have been forcibly repaired, as if someone had used needles and threads to stitch it together bit by bit.
He was stabbed in the heart by Xu Canyang before, and then his heart was patched up with needles and thread.
This makes him look similar to a broken rag doll, but his expression is exactly the same as when he was alive.
He had a weird smile on his face, "This broken body is really uncomfortable."
He turned his head and led the people towards Brand.
Mare stood beside Brand and said, "Why don't you go up and stop him? That human should be strengthening his strength."
This energy fluctuation can still be felt in the presence of high-level experts.
Brand glanced at him sideways, then looked at it calmly, and said, "Why don't Duke Michel go and have a look?"
A smile appeared on 'Marei''s face, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be forced to smile: "There are people guarding you in the distance, so it's not easy to do anything."
Brand sneered lightly, "Understand, His Majesty the King just asked us to take a look, and did not say that he was going to die. Of course, if Duke Michel insists on doing this, I can't stop him."
'Mare' opened his mouth and laughed loudly. His cheek seemed to be torn apart, "Hey, forget it, this body was so messed up by my craftsmanship. It's so messy when I touch it." Just break.”
Brand ignored him and continued to look at the scene in the sky in the distance. They were still very far away, and they were not too close at all. They all relied on their own eyesight.
Those with poor eyesight can only look at the dark sky.
However, they could still vaguely see a group of people not far away from there. Those people did not move much, but seemed to be guarding something.
These people were Qingli and others. When he sensed that Ye Shang was about to undergo a tribulation, he brought many people to her vicinity.
These were all high-level superpowers, or practitioners in the foundation-building stage, and some people who were practicing in the Qi-refining stage also put down what they were doing and rushed over.
Qingli surrounded it with a layer of enchantment, allowing everyone to observe within a safe range.
Yes, it was just observation. He remembered that Ye Shang said that every time he went through a tribulation before, some disciples would come to observe. Some people's understanding might be opened at that moment.
Or some disciples who have been stuck in place for a long time will go to see the elders who have overcome the tribulation from time to time. It would be good if they can gain some insights.
So Qingli directly issued a notice using his optical brain. All cultivators can come to this direction to observe, but they must not break into the barrier.
Han Yi, Song Wennan and others looked at this scene. Is this a cultivator? Are they cultivating immortals? When will they reach this level of cultivation?
Xu Canyang was in an open space, which he found by flying with his sword.
While practicing his sword, he looked at the lightning tribulation in the sky. Although he had already experienced a thunder tribulation, which almost killed him, it did not affect his continued accumulation of experience this time.
He can now be considered as previewing his future state in advance, but this thunder catastrophe looks too terrifying.
He frowned slightly, not sure if he could resist it when the time came.
I heard that not everyone survives the tribulation unscathed. Some people will die from the thunder tribulation. He himself also narrowly escaped death.
Ye Shang marked this at the front when he was practicing the technique.
Therefore, although many people are a little afraid, there is no catastrophe if they practice Qi to the foundation building stage. Some people believe that their qualifications are average anyway, and just practicing to the foundation building stage will be enough.
This is what most ordinary people think. Of course, there are also many people with powers who want to at least become stronger. The apocalypse is over, and there is nothing to fear from the catastrophe. They can just rush forward headlong.
At least that's what Xu Canyang thought at first.
At this moment, he had the most insights. He felt that he was proficient in swordsmanship. These were the two sets of swordsmanship taught to him by Ye Shang.
He practiced it over and over again.
Wei Jin, who was standing with Qingli and others, was also a little moved. He had been practicing the Energy Control Technique because his superpowers were too useless.
He was standing next to the small team. He was in the first echelon this time because Qingli promoted him.
After a war, a lot of resources have been collected, and he is currently stuck in the Great Perfection period of Qi training.
Now looking at the lightning disaster in the sky, he said to the members of the team: "Everyone must watch carefully how Team Ye overcomes the disaster. This is valuable experience."
Song Wenwen on the side heard what he said, "You really think about your teammates all the time."
Wei Jin smiled lightly and said: "Captain Song is also practicing. Captain Qing brought us here urgently. I'm afraid he also knows that this will be beneficial to the practitioners."
Song Wenwen crossed his hands, looked at them empty, and nodded slightly: "Not bad."
Ye Shang's figure stood among the clouds. In fact, very few people could see her below. Not everyone had such great eyesight. Maybe she was just a small black spot in the eyes of many people.
But this does not prevent everyone from watching the thunderstorms that are constantly falling on the side, the majestic thunder, and the smashing lightning, which are accompanied by increasingly powerful sounds.
However, some people can also see the figure still standing in the air, majestic and unyielding.
The door to the dark world hung above her head, but the door frame was also hidden. No one could see that there was a powerful medium above her helping her.
On the contrary, what most people can see is that the powerful thunder tribulation fell on Ye Shang but did not cause any harm.
