Chapter 1042 - The End of the Great Rift Age (2/2)

“Lady Bai Li, my life is indebted to you. I wish to be of service!”

A bunch of aptitude users called out, caught up in the moment’s excitement.

After surviving what would have been their end, they would naturally be excited.

Even those S-tiers and SS-tiers were being respectful to her.

She was stunned for a moment, but she was a fox who had seen the world. Quickly composing herself and nodding lightly, she announced via her consciousness.

“As I said, this is my realm. It is under my protection. Nothing more, nothing less.”

This kind of cool attitude made Bai Li satisfied with herself.

However, she also had her own business to deal with and could not stay in the air forever. In a flash, she reappeared in front of Long Ting.

“This attack by the Dragon-borne had a great impact on us. In the beginning, the spatial beacon was leaked but I managed to seal it, but the seal was not absolute and it was broken.”

Long Ting thought of the previous battle followed by the rifts being wiped out. Dragon Capital was indeed safe for one and a half years and it was only when the SSS-tier Dragon-borne made a move that the seals were destroyed.

She quickly became alarmed. “Then, could you seal it again? Just look at the state of the Dragon-borne’s realm, I’m afraid that it is a superior realm and might contain an Immortal. Then our realm would really just be a clod of dirt that they can easily step on!”

Bai Li confidently raised her small chin. “That’s what I’m talking about. I can close off the rifts in this entire realm, except for the spatial passages that humanity has already established, but after that… After that, unless I unseal everything, the spatial beacons used to go to other realms or to return from them can’t be used. What are your thoughts?”

How important were spatial beacons? The easiest example would be the Dragon Gate Tower. If Bai Li started sealing, the Dragon Gate Tower would no longer open.

There were many other things as well that would be similar to this.

However, all the rifts also meant the rifts that existed on the frontlines. If there were no ultra beasts, then the entire human race would finally get some breathing room and maybe after a hundred years, humanity would finally regain its supremacy.

This news thrilled people.

“About this…” Long Ting was really surprised but she knew that this was not something she could make a decision on.

However, it just so happened today that all the SS-tiers of the Blue Star realm were present and they had a right to decide on this matter.

“Everyone, what do you think of Lady Bai Li’s suggestion? Is anyone against it?” Long Ting transmitted this through her consciousness and those surrounding SS-tiers quickly started thinking about all the resources they had.

“Seal off all the rifts? You know that our realm is an inferior realm, the spatial rifts are a hazard but they are also a resource!” An SS-tier quickly retorted. There were indeed a few spatial rifts under his command that had special qualities that he could enjoy on his own. Not establishing a spatial passage also meant that he did not have to share these resources. He then carefully explained himself, fearing that Bai Li would be unhappy, but after he finished explaining he felt a twinge of regret.

“I agree with the sealing. For the Blue Star Realm, this is a good thing. Then, perhaps the true disaster would pass.” Another said with a smile, looking a little too supportive and perhaps even sycophantic. In reality, for these SS-tiers who had countless realms and countless resources, so what if the Blue Star Realm was destroyed?

That usual saying “Fend off ultra beasts”, was only something said to children.

“But there are some realms that would only open at special times. Must we give up on these? We hold few of them and the lower-tier humans need those to get stronger.” Another person warned.

“Then, we can mimic what the Human Alliance does and establish realm gates. If there are enough realm gates then what would be our limits?”

“Then suggest…”

The Human Alliance began to debate amongst themselves and some were even talking about where the realm gates could be built. Obviously this was for the importance of resources in the future and these gates would require Bai Li to open them. These people just did not have that kind of power.

However, with the entire realm currently being torn apart by rifts and these people continuing to discuss, it only proved that they were too blinded by profit.
