Chapter 261 Waiting to Be Released

A burst of black light streaked across the sky, and it fell straight into the earth like a meteor, smashing a big hole.

In the pit was Wang Yu who had left the White Bone City.

At this moment, he suffered the backlash of Capricorn's power. The four cosmic forces in his body, which were already severely depleted, were directly drained. Not only that, his blood, other body energy, and mental power were all extracted as the price of borrowing the power of the divine beast.

At this moment, Wang Yu's consciousness was erratic, and his body had no strength at all, and he couldn't even get up.

Losing all his energy also made it impossible for him to heal his wounds as before.

"It's terrible," Wang Yu said in his heart.

This was one of the few moments since he started practicing, and it could even be said to be the weakest moment.

Before, he had always been cautious and tried his best to avoid such a critical situation.

It's just that the enemy this time was too powerful. Fighting three alien star envoys in turn, he had to do his best.

In order to ensure that the last blow could reverse the situation, he borrowed the power of Capricorn at all costs, combined with his mysterious skills, trying to kill the powerful enemy directly and get himself out of trouble.

He left the White Bone City in a hurry not to chase the remaining Scarlet Snake team and the Diya people, but just wanted to return to the human underground city before the backlash moment came.

Unfortunately, he couldn't hold on halfway.

The backlash moment came as expected, and his body was emptied of nothing.

Fortunately, at the last moment, he notified the Human Emperor through the sound transmission note.

Just lying in the big pit, resisting the dizziness, Wang Yu did not intend to let himself faint.

It was too dangerous to faint in this wilderness when he was so weak.

In his palm, he was holding a jade talisman tightly.

This was what he got when he accepted the inheritance of Emperor Ziwei in the Time Tower.

The jade talisman contained an attack of Emperor Ziwei back then!

How powerful Emperor Ziwei was in the past, the title of the emperor of the human race alone is enough to explain everything.

His attack was powerful enough to kill almost all the creatures Wang Yu encountered at the moment.

This was his last trump card. If he had not been able to turn the tables with the power of Capricorn and the magical power of Xuan Gong, he would not hesitate to use this amulet to kill the bastards of the Diya tribe.

"It's still not stable enough! This time, I won't come out of retreat until my Xuan Gong is not perfected!"

Wang Yu made a decision in his heart. He was tired of this feeling of being hollowed out and didn't want to experience it again.

Near the ground, some black and tiny reptiles were moving back and forth in the cracks of the rocks.

Seemingly attracted by the delicious food, they rushed into the pit and climbed onto Wang Yu's body under the instinct of foraging, trying to feast on this delicious meat.

With their mouths full of tiny sharp teeth, they gnawed at the flesh under them.

However, Wang Yu's skin was tougher than expected, and he would not be bitten by these tiny bugs even if he left it alone.

The toxins on them could not even cause numbness or itching.

Wang Yu did not care about these reptiles. With his mental power exhausted, he could not even do the most common diffused mental perception of the surroundings.

He could only rely on his eyes, ears, nose and other senses to observe the movements around him.

He was lucky. After an hour or so, no other aliens appeared.

After a while, a stream of light fell from the sky, which made Wang Yu relieved.

It was the Human Emperor.

Along with him were Zizhu and the Divine Witch who were worried about him.

Seeing that Wang Yu was weak, Zizhu looked solemn and took Wang Yu out like a gust of wind.

The insects crawling on his body were directly killed by Zizhu's palm wind.

Zizhu sensed and probed into Wang Yu's body, confirming that Wang Yu was just over-exhausted, and his injuries were not serious, not life-threatening, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

In his impression, Wang Yu had never been so weak.

"Go back first!" The Human Emperor said in a deep voice.

He was worried about the return of the Scarlet Snake and Diya tribes, and even the White Bone City had lost trust in him.

This round of arrests by the Diya and Scarlet Snake tribes specifically targeting them sounded a wake-up call for them.

After that, many of their plans needed to be carefully considered.

Soon, everyone came to the teleportation array not far from the White Bone City.

After opening the magnetic gate, the Human Emperor suddenly said: "Just in case, let's put away this teleportation array first. It may not be used for the next period of time."

"Well." The Divine Witch nodded, waved and put away the teleportation array printed on the rock wall, leaving no trace.

After a while, several people took Wang Yu back to the underground city.

Wang Yu returned to the Time Tower without stopping. Dongfang Ji appeared and stared at Wang Yu's weak state at the moment.

"What did you do to make your body so exhausted?" Dongfang Ji asked in surprise.

If the cosmic energy in the ordinary cosmic power was exhausted, or the mental power was exhausted in the battle, etc., he could still understand it.

But it is quite rare for a person like Wang Yu to have all the energy in his body drained out.

The body generally has a self-protection mechanism. If there is no special secret technique, conventional combat consumption cannot achieve this.

At this moment, Wang Yu is like an empty shell with only vitality.

"A side effect of blood ability." Wang Yu was lying on the first floor of the Time Tower. He could not do anything now and could only wait quietly for his body to recover.

It was like a dry well accumulating water again.

"Forget it, the vitality is still strong. The foundation is not damaged. It just needs to rest. It's nothing serious." Dongfang Ji carefully scanned Wang Yu's body and then spoke.

"Well, I'll rest first." Wang Yu said, and closed his eyes to relax his tense heartstrings.

Soon, a dizzy feeling came over him.

The next moment, Wang Yu lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep.

The Time Tower was safe enough, and no one would disturb him.

Wang Yu hadn't slept for a long time.

Since he started practicing, he gradually replaced his daily sleep time with meditation and cultivation.

With his strong physique, he didn't need to rest for a long time on weekdays.

What he didn't expect was that he slept for more than two months before gradually waking up.

His mental state had basically recovered to its peak, but his blood and other energies had not been replenished, which led to a significant decline in his self-healing ability. Even his injuries had not been completely healed in two months.

Along with it came the crazy hunger in his stomach.

Immediately, Wang Yu took out the stored exotic meat from the storage bag and stuffed it into his mouth.

The quality of these exotic meats was all Star Envoy level, containing extremely rich energy and nutrients, and was prepared and cooked by the top chefs of the human race.

Originally, Wang Yu just prepared for emergencies, after all, he didn't feel hungry normally.

Unexpectedly, it came in handy at this time.

After the beast meat went down his stomach, it was quickly decomposed and absorbed by his intestines and stomach, converted into new blood and qi, and supplemented various missing energy factors.

While eating, Wang Yu contacted the Emperor to ask about the situation outside.

He knew very well that the subsequent impact of this incident would not end so easily.

They had to consider the possible revenge of the Dia Clan and the Scarlet Snake Clan.

Soon, the Emperor, Zizhu and others came to the first floor of the Time Tower.

Seeing Wang Yu struggling to dry the meat, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Wang Yu has recovered quite well.

"At present, there is no sign of the two tribes in the Avicin world, but the young master Jin of the Delecot family sent a text message some time ago." The Emperor sat cross-legged opposite Wang Yu and said first.

"Oh, what do you mean?" Wang Yu was still chewing in his mouth, and his eyes looked at the Emperor.

This wave of help from Young Master Jin was obviously an active show of goodwill, and he did not intend to give up their partnership.

"It seems that a great lord of the Scarlet Snake Clan has decided to form a crusade team to deal with us. Their fighting power must be much stronger than last time. Let us be more careful." The Human Emperor said in a deep voice.

"What about the Diya Clan?" Wang Yu asked.

In fact, compared with the Scarlet Snake Clan, he was more concerned about the Diya Clan, which was known as the demigod.

He was forced into a dangerous situation before, thanks to the two great star envoys of the Diya Clan.

"The Diya Clan has always been closed to information, and the situation is still unknown for the time being." The Human Emperor shook his head.

Even with the intelligence network of the Delecot family, it is difficult to spy on too much information within the Diya Clan, after all, the two parties are in different galaxies.

Wang Yu ate more than 100 kilograms of beast meat before he felt that the hunger in his stomach was relieved.

Looking at the injuries on his body, the blood scabs fell off, and he didn't know when he had healed.

The state of the body quickly recovered, and he raised his arms and clenched his fists.

The feeling of regaining power is quite good!

But this is not enough. The potential enemy is a powerful alien race that has stood in this half-rotating star field for ten thousand years.

Even if the worst is expected, Wang Yu's current strength is far from enough.

"I will stay in the time tower for retreat. Unless the situation is extremely dangerous, I will not come out." Wang Yu touched his stomach and said solemnly.

The emperor was stunned, and seemed to have noticed Wang Yu's determination to retreat this time. He nodded, "Okay, leave the things outside to us, you just retreat!"

He will try his best to buy time for Wang Yu.

Even if the resources in the city are exhausted and the development of the human race is stagnant, they have to wait for Wang Yu to come out!

"Yeah!"

The few people have cooperated with each other for many years, and now they can understand each other's thoughts with an eye contact.

This time Wang Yu's retreat will be a long test.

"If everything goes well, I will solve all the problems when I come out." Wang Yu made a promise and turned to step onto the higher level of the time tower.

After walking out of the time tower, the emperor looked back and suddenly asked.

"What are the results of the power test of the Qiankun Liuhe Formation?"

The witch stopped and smiled: "Very good. Dongfang Patriarch said that this seventh-level protection formation can make the Great Star Envoy unaware of us. I think it should be fine."

"That's good. As long as the location of the underground city is not exposed, it will not be easy for the other party to find us. Continue to increase investment in the research of rune art.

In the future, if the human race wants to truly gain a foothold in this star field, the research progress of rune art is a key, or even the most critical factor!"

The Emperor nodded, and then earnestly exhorted.

"Don't worry, I have never slacked off." The witch waved his hand and said.

Previously, a lot of seventh-level runes and even higher-level ancient runes were obtained from Dongfang Ji. Now a group of human elites are working hard to study these mysterious high-level runes.

The seventh-level rune formation is far from the limit. As long as there are enough experimental resources and sufficient time to settle, the human race's research on rune art will inevitably reap huge results.

At present, the seventh-level rune formation can already bring a series of threats to the powerful Star Envoys, which will become their powerful weapon and reliance.

"What about the supplies?" The Human Emperor retracted his gaze and looked at Che Qin who was waiting outside.

Che Qin held a long list in his hand and said solemnly: "The cultivation materials and spirit stones specially collected before are enough to support the normal operation of the entire underground city for twenty years.

However, if the Rune Research Department squanders it, it may not be able to last for ten years."

There are only so many materials in total, and there is no doubt that there are trade-offs.

"It doesn't matter, rune research cannot stop." The Human Emperor said decisively.

If there is no Time Tower, maybe ten years may not be enough for Wang Yu, but under the effect of the Time Tower, ten years in the outside world is already countless years in the Time Tower.

He firmly believes that as long as Wang Yu comes out of retreat, all problems will be solved. As long as he can move freely and engage in foreign trade, these consumed materials can be quickly accumulated back, which is not a problem at all.

It is still unrealistic for the cultivators of the human race to catch up with the alien races that have been rooted in this star field for a long time in terms of cultivation strength in a short period of time, even if there is a time tower.

It requires the accumulation and precipitation of generations of talents to truly nurture the foundation of the human race, and this usually takes at least thousands of years, or even longer.

If you want to level or even surpass other native alien races in terms of strength faster, you need to start from all aspects other than the cultivation level.

Pills, weapons and equipment, skills and spells, and the rune art that he repeatedly emphasized as the foundation of the human race.

Among them, the rune art, with the help of Dongfang Ji, is the most likely option to achieve high achievements in a short period of time.

And the rune art can derive rune equipment, rune weapons, and even help the refining of pills. It can be said to be a panacea.

Naturally, in the eyes of the Human Emperor, it doesn’t matter if other developments stagnate in a short period of time, but it is necessary to ensure that the key rune art cannot be slackened.

Seeing the insistence of the Emperor, Che Qin said no more.

In the next few months, the dungeon continued to operate in an orderly manner.

Only the construction of the fourth floor slowed down, and the rune research department was in full swing every day and night to carry out various rune research.

Sometimes there were heated academic discussions, sometimes there were fights due to disagreements, and sometimes there were energy explosions due to failed tests.

The passionate painting style here formed a sharp contrast with the increasingly quiet dungeon.
