Chapter 1600: 408: Desperate Reversal, Earth’s New Guest

It can absorb the energy in the air more efficiently, providing the mecha with surging power, and enabling energy weapons to carry the paralyzing and penetrating traits of thunder. The Technology Army has gained nearly infinite endurance and war enchantments.

In a magical world framework filled with Elemental Tide and Spell, mages have ushered in a new era, a "Elemental Demon Core" condensed at the heart position within their bodies, which is essentially a variant application of the Spirit Root.

During casting, the consumption of spiritual power is significantly reduced, and the power of spells is doubled, making it easier to evoke resonance with the corresponding Element Laws.

The foundation of the magic system is greatly enhanced by the Spirit Root Rules.

At the edge of a system reliant on bloodline and unique abilities, a creation called "Spirit Seed of Talent" prevails. They found that as long as they implant this material into their bodies, they can obtain powerful strength blessings...

Shuyan is fighting while retreating, not out of fear of the Mingwu Army.

What it’s conducting is a mad hybrid experiment of systems.

Not content with having a powerful "Cultivation Army," it intends to let all narrative power systems under its control receive fundamental enhancement due to the injection of the Spirit Root Rules.

In its hands, the Spirit Root has become a universal foundational rule plugin that can be embedded into any story framework it finds suitable.

It becomes a power amplifier in the story.

Its war potential expands snowball-like in this way.

The war against the Mingwu Clan has become an excellent testing ground for it to perfect this technology.

This is also why Monster World holds the most fascinating position in its eyes.

In the coexistence of crisis and opportunity, a critical victory or a successful plunder can become a burst point for civilization transmutation.

Bringing a qualitative leap in war power.

For instance, this time, it devoured part of the Ascension Clan’s legacy, seizing the Spirit Root Rules, thereby opening the door to infinite possibilities.

Now it is confident of winning this war.

What it must do next is withstand the Mingwu Clan’s onslaught.

During this process, its strength will grow stronger with each battle, and the system will become more perfect the more it fights.

Furthermore, its tentacles have already reached into the cultivation mini world left by the Ascension Clan.

There, the last legacy of the Ascension Civilization lies dormant.

These legacies are valuable resources once fought for and absorbed by the Ascension Clan from Monster World, continuously nurturing the cultivation mini world like transfused blood.

They are used to support the growth of the mini world.

The heritage includes accumulated Spiritual Energy, mature Spirit Veins, and even countless Spirit Root Seeds scattered around.

They were originally prepared by the Ascension Civilization for itself, used to extend the glory of the Soldier Type Library.

Now the Ascension Civilization has concluded.

These seeds of civilization, having lost their creators, have also lost the meaning of continued existence.

Shuyan’s consciousness scanned these Small Worlds.

It recalled the tiny Light Seed sent by Chi Yan at the end.

Rather than being entrusted, it was more of a plea in despair, asking if it would be willing to accept the last echoes of the Ascension Civilization.

But it had already given its answer.

What it now needs to do is secure a few mini worlds with high Reading Power output, then completely extract those worlds without a reading system.

Prematurely send these mini worlds into the End of Dharma Era, converting all spiritual resources into the purest Ink Power for war consumption.

Chi Yan’s hope for the continuation of civilization, in Shuyan’s eyes, is merely a supplement to war fuel.

This is the destiny of the defeated in Monster World.

At this moment, the battlefield above the Ascension Sea is still filled with violent energy, but the tone of the battle is quietly changing.

Shuyan’s new army was progressing at a visibly fast speed in the war.

The creations of Ink Power, which would originally be easily corroded by Mingwu, are now capable of resiliently resisting the corrosion traits and counterattacking under the augmentation of the Spirit Root Rules.

The advance of the front line is becoming increasingly difficult, and for every inch of the Domain swallowed, the Mingwu Clan must pay a far greater price than expected.

In the rear of the army, a touch of seriousness finally flashed in Ye Ming’s eyes.

It had already realized where the source of the problem lay.

And it’s finally understood why the ultimate legacy "Spirit Root Rules" of the Ascension Clan couldn’t be found.

Apparently, Chi Yan, at the last moment, through some Space Secret Technique, bestowed it upon Shuyan.

This heritage is now becoming Shuyan’s strongest weapon against it.

A strong sense of crisis arose from Ye Ming’s heart.

It knows better than anyone how terrifying the "opportunities" in Monster World can be.

A single correct opportunity is enough to make a civilization leap through the dragon gate and complete a class upgrade.

In the past, it had gained a turnaround opportunity in the defeat of the entire clan due to the fortune from the Destiny Clan.

The Shuyan before its eyes is obviously in a similar "transition" phase.

Digesting the ultimate legacy of the Ascension Clan and merging it with its own peculiar Story Army system.

Every delay makes Shuyan’s power stronger and its system more complete.

It must not be allowed to complete this process.

Ye Ming made a swift decision.

When facing an evolving opponent, allowing time is the greatest foolishness.

Even if it means paying a huge price, and even if it means exhausting all the gains brought by this battle.

It must strike with unprecedented force and crush it completely before it fully transforms into a real threat.

"Order!" Its will turned into a cold command, instantly spreading throughout the Mingwu Army:

"At all costs, destroy the Shuyan Army, and initiate the Mingwu Death Language Array."

Understanding the problem, Ye Ming no longer pursued cost-effectiveness nor considered saving strength.
