CHAPTER 598: CHAPTER 597: SPEAK OF THE DEVIL

```

The three Great Emperors opposite, of the highest rank, Emperor Yan was no fool either.

Fortunately, his mount was also scared into running backwards, giving Emperor Yan a chance to retreat, escaping faster than anyone else.

Loud explosions roared from behind, with rocks flying and Primordial Qi radiating everywhere, feeling as though it were the end of the world.

Although the explosion was vastly different from the initial charge, no one cared about that now.

Everyone felt as if they were being chased by the Grim Reaper, fleeing desperately for their lives.

And at this time, at the front of Emperor Yan’s forces.

"Report!!"

"Emperor Yan led a counterattack, but before they could engage, they were intimidated by the Earth people, their mounts panicked, the Earth people haven’t even exerted their strength, and they already retreated!"

The scout reporting the situation also seemed to be traumatized, as his exotic beast mount had also been scared away.

The six Great Emperors looked at each other and then sneered repeatedly.

"This kid Emperor Yan, now he knows what he’s up against. Just earlier, he was so arrogant wanting to fight back."

"Really ignorant, the Earth people have the Divine Artifacts of the Eternal Life Realm, how could they be easy to deal with?"

"With just three thousand men, daring to chase after our seven hundred thousand, the Divine Artifacts of the Eternal Life Realm are too formidable. We better retreat quickly to conserve our strength!"

The Gu Emperor and several Great Emperors swiftly decided to flee desperately, even more fearful of falling behind.

Seven hundred thousand troops fled, the scene was tremendously powerful.

Even from hundreds of miles away, the smoke and dust stirred up by the marching army could be seen.

The war chariots rumbled, Lin Hao sat in a tank, which was quite relaxed.

"They’re running."

Zhou Pudgy was very excited; the radar showed that before the first round of artillery landed, Emperor Yan’s army had already collapsed.

"Chase."

Lin Hao said only one word, but by now, everyone was accustomed to it.

But Pudgy was still a bit worried: "We have no more shells now."

"Don’t worry, they won’t dare to fight us. Just chase them like we’re herding ducks," Lin Hao looked up at the sky, seeming quite pleased.

Three thousand Earth people’s tanks chased, while the seven countries’ seven hundred thousand allied forces fled.

This was a big event, and in this brief time, it began to spread throughout the Upper Realm Plane.

People were rushing about, many Earth people who had been hiding saw the dawn and started to converge back to the original Gu Country.

And nearby many nations who had captured a considerable number of Earth people also started to restrain themselves.

In the Upper Realm Plane, it seemed to be causing a sensation.

After a full thirty days, Lin Hao led three thousand troops chasing after the seven hundred thousand for thirty days within the boundaries of the Seven Countries, only to reluctantly retire.

The Great Emperors of the Seven Countries were terrified, not daring to approach the original direction of Gu Country any longer.

"Cheers!"

Of course, a celebration was necessary.

After withdrawing the troops, Lin Hao held a victory feast on the ruins of the original Gu Country Imperial City.

In these thirty days, there had been earth-shattering changes here.

New buildings were being erected, the Elf race also continued to arrive, and within a three hundred-mile radius, it became lively again.

And during these thirty days, more and more Earth people began to converge here, including many who ascended from Earth with Lin Hao.

These people also brought a lot of ammunition in their storage rings, and with more people arriving, Lin Hao had more ammunition to use.

Now, even if the Seven Great Countries didn’t dare to challenge, Lin Hao was not afraid.

After a day of celebration, it was back to all kinds of pressing issues.

```

Lin Hao still has many issues to resolve.

After all, if Earthlings want to confront all planes, even with some ammunition, it’s impossible.

After nightfall, the banquet had already dispersed. Lin Hao, along with Zhou Fat and Lin Guodong, stood atop the city walls, gazing into the distance.

Suddenly, under the moonlight in the distance, several shadows appeared, moving quickly and erratically towards them.

Lin Hao was unconcerned and turned to Lin Guodong, "I heard that the major countries are converging towards Divine Mountain, trying to contact the Divine World to deal with us?"

"Indeed, that’s also my concern," Lin Guodong’s face showed worry. "Although we have replenished some ammunition, if the Divine World intervenes and unites these countries against us..."

The future is grim, life and death uncertain.

Lin Guodong left it unsaid, but everyone knew.

"The scouts say there are rumors that the Divine World and Divine Sect intend to tear open the plane and send down some Divine Artifacts to help annihilate us." Lin Guodong sighed, "What should we do?"

"What should we do?" Lin Hao’s eyes twinkled with light, seemingly unconcerned, "Then let’s see where these Divine Artifacts land! Also, I refuse to believe that the entire Upper Realm Plane obeys the Divine World. Surely, we can find allies!"

"This..." Lin Guodong didn’t finish his thought, thinking it difficult, but seeing that it was pointless to say, he simply closed his mouth.

"These issues are not urgent for now. They won’t dare do anything to us in the short term."

Lin Hao shook his hand and then fell into deep thought.

At this stage, if the Earthlings’ situation is resolved, even if the Divine World takes action, it won’t be too soon.

Now, he also had his own issues to resolve.

That is cultivation!

Lin Hao had transformed all of his Primordial Qi into True Qi, but, True Qi, used within the realms of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Daoism, is extremely profound and arcane.

Thinking this over and over, he could not fathom the answer. All along, he could only rely on the Divine Cauldron and his fellows, and his own cultivation has been extremely difficult.

Now, Lin Hao needed to consider how to enhance his own power. After all, in the All Heavens and All Worlds, the realms of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Daoism are the ultimate destinations. One day, he would go there.

"I am thinking of entering seclusion for some days. The forthcoming matters will be handled by you all."

After a while, Lin Hao said.

Everyone was momentarily stunned, but didn’t say much.

Entering seclusion is too common for cultivators.

Given the current situation, Lin Hao’s decision to seclude himself is understandable.

Lin Guodong thought about finding a place for Lin Hao to enter seclusion.

At this moment, a soldier came to report: "Report! Several clan members have just returned, claiming that they have important matters to report."

The clan members are Earthlings.

The returning clanspeople are Earthlings who dared to come from other parts of the Upper Realm. Since there’s an issue, it must be significant.

"Let them come."

Lin Hao turned around and walked towards the castle tower.

Not long after, three travel-worn Earthlings were brought in.

"Greetings, Sect Hierarch!" Two of the three Earthlings had ascended to the Upper Realm with Lin Hao from Earth.

Lin Hao quickly helped the three to their feet, very pleased, "I heard you have something to report?"

"Yes. After arriving in the Upper Realm, we learned about the plight of Earthlings here, and knowing that the Sect Hierarch was here, we rushed over."

"We ascended to the Upper Realm and arrived in Bitter Realm. There, we received some news."

"We heard that in the north of Bitter Realm, a Divine Artifact was descending, and the master of Bitter Realm and beings of the north are all vying for the Divine Artifact."

A Divine Artifact?

Lin Hao had just mentioned that the Divine World might drop Divine Artifacts to assist those hunting Earthlings, not expecting it would happen so soon after his words.

Instantly, the expressions of everyone in the tower darkened.

The atmosphere gradually grew tense.
