“Hmmm? These couple of people seem to be very strong…?” Fang Xingjian asked.

“You should be aware that from tier one of the Divine level onward, one must clear the Nine-Tiered Heavens to level up. Therefore, most of the Divine level experts are able to reach tier four of the Divine level in just a few years or even just a few months. There are very few people who would stay at the same level for very long.”

The red-haired young man said, “Don’t be unwilling to give in. They attempted to strive to clear the trial earlier than we did, so the accumulation of their strength would—of course—be greater than ours. Furthermore, although the conditions for cultivating in this world aren’t much, there has been a great amount of technological research done. They’ve been at tier four of the Divine level for a very long time, and each of them has a deeper and more unfathomable cultivation than the other.

“Although their strength didn’t increase by too much, they’ve reached a depth in the microscopic realm that far surpasses what we’ve reached.”

Fang Xingjian did not comment on this and just asked, “Then what is the reason that you guys have not been able to clear the trial after all this time?”

The red-haired young man sighed again while wearing a bitter look on his face. He shook his head and did not answer Fang Xingjian’s question. Instead, he said, “I’m Luo Haonan. I haven’t asked you for your name yet.”

“I’m Fang Xingjian.”

“Xingjian…” Clearly, it had been a very long time since Luo Haonan had found someone to talk to. After all, the natives here were too different from him. Thus, he had no desires to share his thoughts with them.

As for the other Divine level experts, they had arrived much earlier before him and had their own social circles. Moreover, they had taught him a few lessons previously, so he was a little fearful toward those seniors.

Now that Fang Xingjian had arrived, Luo Haonan felt like an elder brother to him and thus came to greet him, sharing the grievances he had been feeling.

“It’s all because of the natives in this world,” Luo Haonan said. “Although the natives in this world aren’t that strong, they’ve got a grasp on an extremely high technological prowess.

“12 years ago—two years before the first onslaught—a guy who called himself the Divine Emperor appeared on the planet and brought along a tremendous amount of high technology skills.

“Our mission—the condition to clear this world’s trial—is to guide the development of history and change it. We’re to change the entire Earth into a cultivating civilization. However, the Divine Emperor’s existence is our greatest obstacle. As long as he is around, there’s no way that this planet can become a civilization that focuses purely on cultivation.”

Fang Xingjian understood it now. After he arrived in this world, the target whom his Sudden Inspiration sensed that he needed to kill was probably that Divine Emperor. Right now, the seven tier four Divine level experts in the Qiu Dao Alliance were unable to do anything to that Divine Emperor. Clearly, he had some kind of strong powers.

Luo Haonan continued, “We don’t know where that Divine Emperor got his hands on those high technology equipment. He has an almost endless supply of robot armies and even small-scale space battlecruisers.

“As you know, this Earth has already experienced the first onslaught. So, right now, the lifespans of all the living creatures on the planet are all accelerated. Staying outside the safety zone for one day will cause a person to lose one year of their lifespan.

“It’s not worth it to fight against his robot armies outside.”

Fang Xingjian understood now. It seemed that the other Divine level experts, who had come from other parallel worlds, were not immune to having their lifespans flowing at an accelerated pace. It seemed that this environment was advantageous to Fang Xingjian.

However, Fang Xingjian was still a little puzzled. “People at tier four of the Divine level are able to move at light speed and even distort space. After reaching the microscopic realm, there would also be all sorts of remarkable abilities. Despite this, is there still no way of dealing with him?”
