[During one council meeting, you overheard the female Heaven Venerable, Na Heaven Venerable, speaking with great concern.]
["If this thing grows up, it will be terrifying. If we lose control, it might destroy the entire Void Realm!"]
["It's just a scrap piece, it doesn't have that much power."]
["I think we should inform the Realm Master about this."]
["No! If the Realm Master finds out how hard we're struggling, he'll order us to retreat and send another army to replace us! Then what was the point of all the people we lost?"]
Undoubtedly, Cunning Heaven Venerable was trapped by something called "sunk cost."
So he went all in, using some kind of forbidden weapon.
During your time undercover, you also made a special investigation into why the Dragon-Men could hand out lifespan as salary.
Whenever the Dragon-Men conquered a world, they would delist that world.
In reality, "delisting" was the result, not the goal.
The Dragon-Men would first seize the Five Element Root Vessels and fuse them into their own world's root vessels, strengthening their world's elemental foundation.
Next, they would refine the Earth Spirit.
Finally, they would slaughter all living beings to release the Mundane Qi and transfer all of it elsewhere.
When a world was destroyed to such an extent, it naturally became delisted, losing all meaning of existence.
In this process, the Dragon-Men would gain an additional harvest.
As mentioned earlier, the Earth Spirit governed the evolution of a world's living beings, including their lifespans, which were also connected to the Earth Spirit.
When the Dragon-Men refined the Earth Spirit, they would extract a large amount of "Life Source" from it.
Note, it's "Source," not "Origin."
Life Source couldn't be directly converted into lifespan; cultivators had to use their own power to slowly transform it into lifespan.
The speed of this transformation defied common sense.
The higher one's cultivation level, the slower the conversion.
But don't forget, those with higher cultivation levels also lived longer.
So, overall, through world wars, the average lifespan of the Dragon-Man tribe had greatly increased.
As they acquired more and more Life Source, the currency of the Dragon-Man Realm was directly replaced by Life Source.
It was a transparent liquid, sealed inside small, circular metal pieces.
This was what they called the "Dragon-Man Coin."
"Dragon-Men really mastered core technology!"
You estimated that if Old Shen were here, he'd definitely want to study this technology.
You also wanted to know their specific procedures, but it was a very complex process. Unless a Dragon-Man specialized in Life Source extraction, they couldn't explain a thing about it, not even a Heaven Venerable.
Year eighty-one, one hundred years old.
Extracting trait tags...
Triggering the effect of «Luckier with Age»!
Extraction successful!
«Super Saiyan» (Golden Legendary):
Ka-me-ha-me-ha! Super Saiyan!!
When you enter a state of "Extreme Rage," you will undergo different levels of transformation based on the intensity of your rage and your current cultivation level, with later stages inheriting the special effects of the previous one.
After successfully transforming, you can maintain the "Extreme Rage" state until you cancel the transformation.
The transformation stops when stamina is depleted, or it lasts for a maximum of one year.
Super Saiyan 1: True Qi increased fifty-fold, hair turns golden and stands on end, gain one chance at sit-ups.
Super Saiyan 2: True Qi increased a hundred-fold, hair becomes twice as long, turns golden and stands on end, all attacks are imbued with powerful, devastating lightning.
Super Saiyan 3: True Qi increased four hundred-fold, hair becomes ten times longer and you lose your eyebrows, can attack any target, regardless of their state.
Sit-ups: As long as you're not dead, no matter how exhausted you are or how severe your injuries, you can get back up and fight another round!
After the True Qi increase, if you meet the standard of the next realm, your own realm will temporarily ascend.
[Yamerō! Frieza!!!!]
[Do you wish to adjust the trait tag?]
[Yes/No]
"Whoa! Golden Legendary!!"
Although he had drawn many golden tags before,
Whenever golden text appeared, Chen Yi still couldn't hide his excitement.
Especially this time, it was clearly another big daddy.
But it wouldn't be easy for this big daddy to take effect.
"From the previous simulations, faking Extreme Rage myself won't work. I need a real, soul-stirring stimulus."
In reality, Chen Yi also had the "Irritable Constitution."
This trait tag, to some extent, lowered the trigger conditions for the "Extreme Rage" state.
But entering that kind of soul-deep rage was far from easy.
Regardless, the prize pool had been stacked again!
"This is the first time I've lived to a hundred years old. It really pays to live long; as long as I draw enough trait tags, I'm bound to get good ones!"
[You replaced «Luckier with Age» with «Super Saiyan».]
[This year, you continued your undercover work, gathering intelligence on the Dragon-Men and constantly transmitting it to the human world allied forces, helping humanity understand this enemy better.]
[You noticed that the Dragon-Man army had withdrawn their patrol forces from the surrounding areas, and the defensive formations at each camp were just for show, not actually powered on.]
[This was clearly a deliberate signal of relaxed defense, attempting to lure the human world allied forces into an active attack.]
[You immediately ordered that, until you figured out what these Dragon-Men were brewing, if the enemy doesn't move, we don't move!]
[Year eighty-two, one hundred and one years old.]
[The Sixth Expeditionary Army still showed no obvious signs of activity; they remained holed up in their strongholds.]
[The breach slowly sent supplies and reinforcements, but more than half of it was diverted by you to the human world allied forces.]
[Humanity also got their hands on some new Dragon-Man technology.]
[However, you strictly ordered that it not be revealed. These weapons were given to specialized personnel for training, and the matter was kept very secret.]
[Year eighty-three, one hundred and two years old.]
[A force of Dragon-Men encountered a patrol squad from the human world allied forces while hunting in the Great Wastes.]
[This squad of no more than a hundred men completely routed a Dragon-Man force of similar size.]
[The human world allied forces were greatly encouraged.]
[Everyone was saying that without their war machines, the Dragon-Men were like toothless tigers, nothing to worry about.]
[Besides, their numbers were so small; them staying holed up was clearly a sign they had exhausted their tricks.]
[The allied forces should take the initiative to attack, completely wipe out the Dragon-Men, end this war, and let the human world return to normal.]
[This growing arrogance among the troops was suppressed by your order.]
[But you knew, this was a bad omen.]
[Year eighty-four, one hundred and three years old.]
[This year brought tremendous good news.]
[Li Lingyue had an epiphany. The Faith Dao had accumulated enough cultivation for her, and she was going into seclusion to break through to the Martial God realm!]
[As the current human Guardian, Li Lingyue would receive protection from the nation's fortune during her breakthrough, making it relatively easier.]
[Year eighty-five, one hundred and four years old.]
[A mutiny occurred within the human world allied forces. Many soldiers could no longer tolerate this stalemate and clamored for an active attack.]
[In a hidden forest, you were wearing a Dragon-Man appearance, meeting with the Sword Lord who had come in haste.]
["Chen Yi, the troops below can no longer suppress their eagerness for battle."]
