From Blood Mage to Styx Ancestor

Chapter 28 Return, isn't this the X-rated world?

The daylight lasted for seven whole days, and Modi and Long Yutian also stayed at the Altar of Light and Shadow for a full seven days.

Whether it was Modi's premonition or Long Yutian's intuition, they both knew that the longer they stayed here, the greater the benefits they would gain, which is why they stayed.

Seven days without food or water is nothing to them; when they're bored, they can pass the time by meditating.

However, outsiders don't have their patience.

First, in Green City, chaos inevitably broke out during the seven days that the two pillars of the city were missing.

Some former loyalists, seeing that they had both disappeared, were once again eager to make a comeback, planning to contact their old comrades and return to their former glory.

Later... they were discovered by the spies left behind by Long Yutian, and were wiped out by a group of henchmen.

Not a single person was left alive.

Ling Tianfeng, who was retired at home, had no choice but to return to his old ways, stabilizing Green City while sending people into the Light and Shadow Altar to search for the two.

Unfortunately, all attempts ended in failure, because once you get close to that ocean of light, everyone becomes mesmerized and can't move no matter how much you call out to them.

The situation is not much better in other cities.

The phenomenon of seven days of daylight was so bizarre that various conspiracy theories and doomsday theories immediately emerged.

Some cities, already unstable, even experienced internal strife, with some even being overthrown by fanatical followers of certain religions.

The same goes for the monsters that emerge from the mist.

In Qingping City, the Prandela plant shrinks its root system, burying itself in the soil.

The "Sea Demon" that submerged Haiyan City retreated into the deep sea and remained hidden.

It wasn't until seven days later, when daylight had passed and night returned to the world, that they gradually resumed their activities.

"Finally, I can see things clearly again."

At the altar of light and shadow, Long Yutian opened his eyes, and light seemed to seep out from them.

Although the light emitted by the fragments of the God of Light was dazzling, it did not harm the naked eye; on the contrary, it greatly improved his eyesight.

"By the way, where is the fragment of the God of Light?" He belatedly realized that the fragment of the God of Light, which should have been suspended in the instrument, had disappeared.

"They've probably all been fired up. You don't actually think maintaining that beam of light comes without any cost, do you?"

Modi controlled the Eye of the Soul, observing the world somewhat clumsily.

"Is this the same vision as spiritual awareness? It's really useful."

With a thought, his soul eye looked at himself, and his blood vessels, internal organs, bones... everything was clearly visible.

Besides observing the external world, the Eye of the Soul can also be used to look inward at oneself.

This is of great significance for practicing martial arts and transforming oneself.

During the seven days of continuous daylight, this Eye of the Soul absorbed the "light" emitted by the fragments of the God of Light, using it to nourish a seed deep within his consciousness.

After seven days of observation and research, he was basically certain that the seed was closely related to his soul, and therefore he called it the "Seed of the Soul".

If he's the closest to the fragment of the God of Light, what about Long Yutian, who's the second closest?

The question was answered when he looked into Long Yutian's eyes.

There was light in Long Yutian's eyes.

"The light in your eyes is about to shine through," Mordy kindly reminded him.

"Hmm... Ah?" He paused for a moment, took the ice mirror that Modi handed him, and looked at himself in the mirror.

His appearance in the mirror hadn't changed much, but the almost tangible glint in his eyes reminded him of something.

The fragments of the God of Light did indeed have some effect on him.

As he activated his spiritual awareness and began to look inward, Long Yutian's expression gradually became serious.

After observing for a while, he finally spoke, "Teacher, something like a seed has appeared in my upper dantian. Do you have any clues about it?"

"Does it feel closely related to your mind and will?"

"Yes, that feeling definitely exists."

"I'm in the same situation." Modi's words reassured him a lot.

But the next sentence caused his emotions to fluctuate again.

"My time is running out, there's something I must tell you..."

He shared some of his guesses and thoughts.

After giving his final instructions, Modi patted him on the shoulder and comforted him:

"All good things must come to an end. I have entrusted the entire legacy of the Greta School to you. Study hard, and perhaps in the future you will be able to set foot in various realms, and we may have the chance to meet again."

Although the Greta School's lineage only extends to the level of the extraordinary, this discipline from another world might inspire the Earthlings.

Modern technology and otherworldly magic may collide to spark wisdom, thereby propelling the rapid development of the remaining human civilization.

Despite his reluctance, Long Yutian nodded. "Teacher, please take care."

He had long suspected Modi's identity, and hearing Modi say it himself now was a confirmation of his suspicions.

He was no longer the arrogant bodyguard of the campus belle from a year ago, but the head of a city, so naturally he wouldn't act on emotion.

All I can do is offer my heartfelt wishes to my teacher.

Then look up and keep walking forward.

......

In the year 2033 of the Blue Star Calendar, the Ling Group of Green Field City used special methods to kill the Frostbite Giant Spider, one of the Three Calamities.

This also led to a special phenomenon known as the "seven-day daylight".

In the same year, Long Yutian, the head of the Ling Group, carried out sweeping reforms, renamed the group "Judgment Company," and vigorously promoted a new technology called "magic" within the company.

Under his leadership, Green City quickly recovered from the slump that had begun since the outbreak of the Fog Crisis and began to develop rapidly.

In just a few years, Green City has grown rapidly, with various achievements combining magic and technology emerging. At the same time, the combination of ancient martial arts and biotechnology has also shone brightly.

Using these achievements, the Adjudicator Company cleared away the fog surrounding Green City and forcefully seized control of other cities.

Human cities are once again linked together.

The impact of the seven-day daylight event has finally begun to be seen by the world.

The "light" in some people's hearts eventually grows into a seed of the soul, which grants them all sorts of abilities.

Some of these individuals, trapped in extreme emotions and unable to confront their inner selves, degenerate into a special kind of being known as the "Twisted Ones."

Such people often act solely out of consideration for their own emotions, causing enormous losses to society.

Another small group of people transformed into special individuals, the opposite of the Twisted Ones, and were called the Awakened Ones.

Neither the Twisted Ones nor the Awakened Ones are a match for the Rulers Corporation; they cannot stop the company's expansion.

As the Adjudicator Company continued to expand, Long Yutian's power also grew, which attracted simultaneous attacks from both the outside and the inside.

Finally, one day, when the territory of the Arbiter Corporation bordered the ocean, the "Sea Demon," one of the three calamities, launched a ruthless attack.

Meanwhile, within the human race, several Awakened and Twisted Ones joined forces to plot against Long Yutian, intending to seize this opportunity to eliminate him.

However, they did not expect that even when attacked from both sides and needing to protect the people at the same time, Long Yutian was still invincible in the world.

In this battle, he revealed his identity as the first awakened one, calming the tsunami and severely injuring the sea demon with one punch, and then crushing all the traitors to death with another.

From then on, his name was known to all, he was respected and loved by ordinary people, and his enemies were filled with fear of him.

He almost managed to "defeat the whole world single-handedly".

After that, no one dared to plot against him again, and the Adjudicator Company continued its unstoppable global expansion.

Thirty years later, except for some Misty Forbidden Zones where Immortal-level enemies exist, the Arbiter Corporation has basically recovered its lost territory, and humanity once again stands at the pinnacle of Earth.

In order to better manage Blue Star, Long Yutian collectively referred to the areas controlled by the Ruler Corporation as "Cities" and divided the Cities into 26 "Nests".

The Adjudicator Company was reorganized once again, with the original "Informants" and "Henchmen" forming two separate companies.

They are responsible for monitoring the entire city, eliminating individuals and forces that violate the rules set by the leader, and ensuring that the leader's orders are carried out correctly.

At this point, the overall situation on Earth has basically stabilized.

In the former Green City, now A Nest, the headquarters of the Adjudicator Company, Long Yutian, now middle-aged, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scenery outside, a few memories flashing before his eyes.

More than 30 years ago, it was here that he discussed with his teacher the matter of "dissolving the board of directors".

"Time flies. Things that happened more than 30 years ago seem like they happened yesterday."

More than thirty years have passed, but he still looks like a young man, without any wrinkles on his face.

For him, who had already broken through to the seventh level of martial arts, maintaining youth and immortality was just a trivial matter. If he wanted to, he could even change his cell structure with a single thought and become a completely different species.

This is a power comparable to that of immortals.

Even so, there are still beings he fears both inside and outside this blue planet.

For example, there are six forbidden zones shrouded in mist, and extraterrestrial enemies that may appear at any time.

"There are still too many enemies threatening us." He walked to his desk, found an old notebook, and began to flip through it with a sigh.

This is a magic textbook left by his teacher, Mordy, which records the magical knowledge of the Greta School.

Most of them have long been outdated and are the kind that even junior high school students can easily understand.

Over the years, the magical theories of Blue Star have far surpassed those left by Mordy, and are now more complex and profound.

Even so, he still treasured it and would flip through it whenever he had free time.

As he flipped through his notes, his thoughts drifted back to the day he said goodbye to his teacher.

Modi's last words still echoed in my ears.

"...Are the fragments of the God of Light just a coincidence?"

He closed his notebook and looked up at the sky outside the window.

The night sky was filled with twinkling stars, yet he vaguely sensed a strong sense of malice.

At the edge of the galaxy where Blue Star is located, ripples appeared in space, and huge and ferocious space creatures suddenly appeared.

Most of them were covered in wounds, some even with their internal organs exposed, as if they had just experienced a fierce battle.

Waves of spiritual energy leaped and passed between them, expressing various meanings:

"Aisast, I'm hungry."

"Food is nearby."

"The hunter is still on the hunt."

"Predation, escape."

"..."

They made no attempt to conceal their appetite and movements, heading straight for the planet with the most abundant biomass in this galaxy.

Humanity on the long-suffering planet Earth is about to have its first contact with extraterrestrial life.

Through war.

......

[Teleportation complete. Protection time remaining: 10 minutes.]

Urban, R Nest.

The light shifted, the space distorted, and a group of four suddenly appeared on a bustling street.

Their clothing and appearance were no different from those of city dwellers; the only clue that could be discerned was their demeanor.

However, the dense crowd seemed to have their perception altered; not only did they not notice anything unusual, but they also deliberately avoided them when passing by.

Among the four, the middle-aged man in the lead glanced at his three teammates with a sharp, piercing gaze.

He began, "This time, our mission world is called [Forbidden Zone of Mist]. You've all seen the world information, right?"

"I've already checked," replied a clever and carefree young man. "The intelligence indicates that this is an X-rated world, but the mist that forms the background of this world has extremely high exploration value."

"And the cutting-edge technology displayed by those aristocratic families and conglomerates is another example," the aloof woman beside her interjected.

Recalling the outrageous information about these forces, she frowned slightly, a look of disgust on her face.

"I really don't know what those powerful families and conglomerates are thinking, using cutting-edge technology to create some kind of service area. Is pornography all they have in their heads?"

"In any case, if we want to complete the task assigned by the Supreme God, we will inevitably have to go to them."

The middle-aged man, acting as the team leader, spoke up. He looked at the young man who had remained silent throughout and said:

"Old Du, I'm leaving the negotiations to you."

The young man nodded without saying a word, appearing particularly reliable.

In just a few words, the team leader completed the arrangements, and the ten-minute protection period ended just in time.

Even after the protective shield provided by the main god disappeared, the pedestrians around remained completely unaware.

The four were not surprised by this and were about to go their separate ways to do their own things.

A sharp, piercing alarm suddenly blared, and everyone on the street stopped in their tracks, looked up at the sky, and their faces showed panic.

"An invasion of the Azast swarm has been detected. All R-Hive residents, please proceed immediately to the nearest shelter and await the R-Company Legion's defeat of the invaders..."

The moment the alarm sounded, pedestrians on the street, as if they had experienced this many times before, all rushed in one direction.

Only the four people from the Main God Space looked completely bewildered, blocking the pedestrians' path.

"Damn it, you want to turn into biological matter, don't you? If you want to die, don't stop me, get out of my way!"

Some hot-tempered people simply pushed them aside and ran forward, cursing and swearing.

"Captain, I think I heard something about a swarm of insects and R-Nest R-Company. Do these things exist in the [Mist Forbidden Zone] universe?"

Or have we been transported to another world? Is this actually the city from that month? The carefree young man gaped in astonishment.

"I...I don't know either," the middle-aged man said blankly. "Could this be a world that has been drastically altered?"

"Damn it, Captain, forget about it! Some huge things are coming from the sky, let's run!"

The shadows covered the entire nest. The four looked up and saw countless hideous-looking planktonic creatures descending from the sky with their tentacles, swirling towards the pedestrians on the ground.

"Damn it, it's the Zerg! How could Zerg appear in an X-rated anime world?"

The young man was still complaining, but what shocked him even more was yet to come.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in the air and casually threw a punch, shattering the largest insect in two.

"Ha, you alien country bumpkins, don't you know that our Blue Star has a valiant commander protecting it? How dare you come and invade?"

In the crowd, some people stopped and looked at the figure in the air with reverence, their expressions filled with excitement.

"Quack, Great Commander, we love you!"

"To witness the Grand Commander in battle, even dying would be worth it!"

Listening to the locals around them, the four outsiders stared wide-eyed in shock as they watched the entire process of the commander slaughtering the insect swarm.

The entire process lasted less than three minutes before the so-called R Company legion finally arrived.

"Isn't this supposed to be an X-rated anime world? How can it have both lunatics and insect swarms at the same time?"

The middle-aged man looked devastated; he had a premonition that this time, they were likely to mess things up.

"God, let me divine your horse's fate!"
