Chapter 565 The Temple Respects Xiao Yu?
From within the eleven pillars of light, a series of majestic and domineering voices resounded.
These elders, who never concern themselves with the specific affairs of the temple, are actually all stationed here.
Their views on Dragon City were almost remarkably consistent.
That is... to first capture Xiao Yu, the city lord of Dragon City, and obtain his opportunity.
This will enhance the power of the temple.
After all... the temple has always treated some geniuses this way.
Geniuses and powerful individuals either join the temple and become its lackeys.
Or, die!
There is never a third option.
although.
Rumors are circulating that Xiao Yu is very strong now, and may have even reached the ninth level!
But to these ancient monsters who have lived for who knows how long, they are still not worth mentioning!
But, just then...
But a dissenting voice suddenly rang out: "I think...this is inappropriate!"
"Elder, why is this?" the first elder to speak asked, frowning.
Within the temple's council of elders, the Grand Elder holds the highest position and power.
However, the council of elders is already the highest authority, and the others are not much weaker.
Upon hearing this, everyone frowned and looked at the white pillar of light in the center.
Longcheng obstructed the temple's envoys from carrying out punishments and repeatedly challenged the temple's authority.
The elders were already extremely dissatisfied when they learned of this.
If they weren't so busy, they would have taken matters into their own hands and arrested the person.
"Everyone, please be patient!"
The Grand Elder's majestic voice rang out, "A great calamity is imminent, and the monsters in the abyss are becoming increasingly ferocious. Once the calamity descends, we eleven people alone will likely be unable to resist it."
Once that monster breaks through the barrier, our world will be transformed into a dark inferno.
To completely suppress that monster, we need to add another person to complete the most crucial part of the barrier.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards the far left of the eleven white beams of light.
There, a faint beam of light could be seen, but it was enveloped in black liquid.
"Elder, are you saying... that kid can reach your level?" someone questioned.
"That's right! It took us at least a hundred years, maybe even several hundred years, to reach our current strength... while that kid is only in his early twenties, how could he possibly reach a god-like level in just one year?"
"Instead of pinning our hopes on this person, we should devote all the temple's resources to us so that we can break through as soon as possible!"
Many people voiced their objections.
Some people even want to exploit the temple's resources to enhance their own power.
"Ugh...."
The Grand Elder sighed deeply, shaking his head with a bitter smile: "I am nearly a thousand years old, and my days are numbered. If no one reaches my level within a year, the great formation will collapse instantly. Who among you is confident that you can reach my level within a year?"
The moment those words were spoken, the room fell silent.
Are you kidding me?
It took the Grand Elder over a thousand years to reach his current level!
And what about them?
Although it's only one major realm away.
However, the later the stage...
Each advancement in strength to a higher realm is like crossing an insurmountable chasm.
Every step forward requires either an unparalleled stroke of luck or the accumulation of hundreds of years of effort.
To make a giant leap within a year is simply a pipe dream!
But... their location is the largest known space rift on Earth.
The demonic energy inside was overwhelming. Even the slightest gust of black liquid was enough to turn the place into a purgatory. The reason why the eleven of them were able to suppress this spatial rift was because of this natural array!
The great formation enhanced their power.
The core of the central formation is controlled by the most powerful elder.
Although, with the Great Elder's god-like realm, his lifespan is as long as a thousand years!
However, now his millennium limit is less than a year away.
Once the Grand Elder falls, this great formation will instantly collapse!
At that time... a towering black ocean will sweep in.
The entire world will be transformed into a dark inferno!
And the human world will be completely wiped out!
"Since none of you can do it, then shut up!"
The Grand Elder's voice carried a terrifying aura, his tone icy as he said, "In the past, you could have dealt with any geniuses you wanted! But now, the only one who has the potential to reach my level is that young man!"
The message came from the temple messenger.
Xiao Yu went from a near-death cripple to reaching the eighth level in less than half a year!
This is a level that only one in ten thousand geniuses can reach in a few decades.
In just six months, it has created many miracles and possesses many rare treasures.
In the past, the Grand Elder would have used an iron-fisted policy, but now, his days are numbered...
“However, Dragon City clearly possesses many rare treasures, yet the city lord of Dragon City has no desire to protect the continent but is solely focused on profiting from them, which shows that he has no sense of the bigger picture…” someone retorted again.
"Hmph! Didn't you all join the temple in the first place for its resources?"
"Moreover... spatial rifts everywhere are beginning to erupt, and the crisis of human extinction is imminent. As a super power, Dragon City is the monster's most coveted delicacy, so it's impossible for anyone to stay out of it!"
The intelligence that the elders just received indicates...
On this night of the full moon, more than one powerful force was destroyed.
Among them are several powerful forces with several eighth-tier experts in charge!
The Grand Elder's tone turned indifferent at this point, yet carried an undeniable authority: "If he can reach my level within a year, from this day forward, the Temple... will revere him!"
"Hmph! If he can truly reach a god-like level, what's wrong with revering him?"
"That's right! Since the Grand Elder insists, we'll wait and see... We just hope this kid won't disappoint us, otherwise, the entire human world will be destroyed..."
"In that case, let Suxin bring those two girls over."

On the other side, in the wilderness.
After leaving the mechanical city, the earth dragon turtle burrowed into the earth and began to travel at a steady pace.
Meanwhile, everyone in Dragon City went about their own business, busy with their own tasks.
Outer city, inside the Dragon City Theater.
"The most important thing in acting is the ability to create a character!"
"To play a role well, first of all... is the image..." At this moment, in the theater, a performance had just ended and the audience had dispersed. Xue Qingcheng was pulling Awen along, explaining acting techniques to her.
"Your innate ability is to change your appearance, which is quite simple."
"Physical movements, lines, and tone of voice—what kind of person does what, what they say, and the tone of their voice—these are all crucial... For example, in 'The Butterfly Lovers,' Zhu Yingtai's personality is initially carefree and lively, but later..."
