If the sixth-level catastrophic creatures are the lowest level of the gods, then the seventh-level catastrophic ones are the backbone of the gods.
Even in the "Boundless Heart Sea - Core Area", if you can grow to the seventh level, you will be valued by all forces and included in the core layer.
In particular, the "wild" seventh-level catastrophic creatures are the main targets of all parties.
The reason is simple.
The prerequisite for becoming a seventh-level catastrophic creature is that the personalities of two sixth-level catastrophic creatures must be merged.
And if a cataclysmic creature without the support of a major force in the "core area" wants to advance to the seventh level, it must kill at least one level six cataclysmic creature.
This in itself proves the combat effectiveness of this seventh-level cataclysmic creature.
Moreover, in the absence of the ninth-level gods, the eighth-level can almost be said to be the highest combat power of each organization in the "core area", and they are the leaders of each organization sitting in the center.
In this case, the number of Tier 7 actually represents to a certain extent how much combat power that organization uses regularly. It also represents how much of the pie they can get in the "core area" resources.
Therefore, it is far more beneficial to enter the "Boundless Heart Sea - Core Area" as a seventh-level person than to enter the "Core Area" as a sixth-level person.
——Destined to be a target for all parties to win over.
In addition to these huge political and economic gains, what is more important to Qiu Tu is of course his "catastrophic ability".
His core cataclysmic ability "Order Space" is bound to his level. After his level is raised to level seven, all evil gods and cataclysmic creatures below level seven will be affected by him.
This will be of great help to him in helping Zhao Ji in the battle for "God Rank"!
Thinking like this, Qiu Tu, who was ready for everything, thought. The next second, all the lighting facilities in Zhao Ji's underground palace were turned off in circles from the outside to the inside.
The darkness spread in the room along with the extinguished lights, all the way to Qiu Tu's body.
Qiu Tu slowly closed his eyes, and the next second, the aura around him began to surge wildly. A powerful wave of catastrophic power spurted out of his body, and then shot straight into the sky!
In an instant, with him as the center, the power of catastrophe quickly formed a huge vortex, spinning rapidly around him!
Above the sky, thick clouds are like the waves of an angry sea, rolling and gathering at a jaw-dropping speed! It is as if an invisible giant hand is stirring the sky!
‘Five days. I have enough time to rush to the “core area” and participate in the “God Rank” trial.’
'There should even be some time to see how Yanyan and Princess Xi are doing.'
After silently making a judgment on this promotion in his heart, Qiu Tu officially started the promotion!
At the same time, when Qiu Tu advanced to the seventh level.
Shelter 6. Border States.
The conversation between Princess Xi and Yanyan finally ended.
Seeing Yanyan clearly on the verge of collapse, but still gritting her teeth and fighting, Princess Xi couldn't help but reveal a hint of appreciation in her eyes.
However, as a cold-blooded political creature, appreciation is appreciation, and what needs to be done is still done.
So she clapped her hands expressionlessly and the vehicle slowly stopped.
Princess Xi's eyes no longer lingered on Yanyan, but sat there, like a high and mighty queen, and said coldly, "Take Miss Yanyan down to have a rest."
"No one is allowed to approach or visit her without my order."
Hearing Princess Xi's words, the female driver in front of the car, dressed in military uniform, responded quickly, then picked up the walkie-talkie and started giving instructions.
After a while, a group of female soldiers came forward and took Yanyan down.
Although Yanyan is also a Cataclysm, her strength is only at the early stage of the second level, and she is no match for those female Catastrophic soldiers.
Therefore, he was captured within two seconds and taken down.
However, her temperament is indeed becoming more and more mature. Even to this level, she does not beg for mercy or threaten. She just lowers her head and ponders, not knowing what she is thinking.
After Yanyan was captured, the convoy started again. Princess Xi sat alone in the jeep.
She looked forward with neither joy nor sorrow, and then she chuckled in her heart, 'Sure enough, she is still a child, her methods are so immature.'
‘However, after this experience, I believe I will mature soon’
At the same time, the 6th shelter, the center, the main residence of the Kou family.
As a thousand-year-old family, the Kou family has been ups and downs, but its heritage is there. In addition, having controlled half of the 6th Sanctuary for many years, the entire Kou family's main residence is grand and luxurious.
And it was in a reception room in the backyard of the Kou family's main house.
Kou Xuan was also chatting with Kou Yu, as well as Hou Yu, Han Dong and Gao Changming from the top ten members of the Kou family.
The living room has an old-fashioned layout, with the main seat in the middle and several other guest seats arranged on the left and right.
At this time, Kou Xuan was sitting on the main seat, looking at the several family backbones below him. The expression on his face did not change in any way because of the loss of the Three States.
On the contrary, his younger brother Kou Yu seemed a little excited.
Kou Yu squinted his eyes, his whole body was full of energy, then he patted the table and said, "It's too much to bully others!"
"Who does Lin Xi think she is? Is she her mistress Qiu Tu?! How dare she sit on our heads and pee! Shit!"
"Brother, what are you afraid of? The land of the three states has just been given away!"
"It's easy to let it go, but it's hard to get it back!"
Kou Xuan's prestige in the entire Kou family is extremely high, so when hearing Kou Yu's direct accusation, Hou Yu, Han Dong, and Gao Changming among the ten heroes couldn't help but frown.
The three of them looked at each other, and then Hou Yu took the initiative and said, "Brother Yu. I think there must be a reason why Brother Xuan chose to give in."
"It's definitely not because I'm afraid of Lin Xi."
"After all, Qiu Tu has already gone to the "core area" and cannot come back. There is no way to support Lin Xi."
Having said this, Hou Yu paused for a moment, then glanced at Kou Xuan, and then said, "And Lin Xi's backstage now is not Qiu Tu, but Li Feng."
"Brother Xuan should have his own considerations."
Hearing the argument between the two, Kou Xuan picked up the tea and took a slow sip. Then he said, "Lin Xi's backstage now is actually Qiu Tu."
After hearing Kou Xuan's words, Hou Yu was stunned for a moment.
Kou Xuan gently rubbed the rim of the tea cup with the lid and said slowly, "And Qiu Tu probably did not leave the "Northwest Region"."
Upon hearing Kou Xuan's second sentence, Hou Yu, Han Dong, and Gao Changming were all stunned.
As a result, Kou Xuan continued, "Finally, even if Qiu Tu has left the "Northwest Region", it does not mean that he cannot come back."
Hearing Kou Xuan's third sentence, even Kou Yu was stunned.
The scene was quiet, as everyone was digesting the meaning of Kou Xuan's three sentences.
For a moment, Kou Yu violently rubbed his hair, and then said with an impatient expression, "Brother, you should speak more clearly! Why didn't Qiu Tu leave? And he can come back?"
"Is the Isolation Mountains vegetarian?"
Kou Xuan said slowly, "What if the "Isolation Mountain Range" collapses?"
Hearing Kou Xuan's words, Kou Yu suddenly froze. The other three heroes also did the same, suddenly standing on their chairs.
After a while, it was Gao Changming who spoke first. He was a rather delicate-looking man with a beard.
He looked at Kou Xuan and asked, "Master, will the "Isolation Mountain Range" collapse?"
Kou Xuan put the teacup in his hand on the table and sighed slightly.
He said, "Actually, I have made this guess before."
"The reason is very simple. All of Qiu Tu's behaviors are a bit wrong and not like his style."
"Later, he cut off a section of the "Isolated Mountain Range" with one sword, which further verified my suspicion."
He looked around at the four people present, and then said, "Back then, we fought with King Kang to the "Isolation Mountains"."
"Everyone should have an impression of how hard the "Isolated Mountains" are."
"At that time, neither nuclear weapons nor the battle between King Kang and Xiao Yaksha could harm the "Isolation Mountains" at all. How come it has become so fragile now?"
"Even if Qiu Tu is indeed very powerful, he shouldn't be so strong, right?"
Kou Xuan said calmly, "So. At that time, I guessed that there might be a problem with the "Isolated Mountain Range."
Speaking of this, Kou Xuan changed his tone and said, "And what I am really sure of is that someone found me in the past two days."
"Someone found you?" After hearing Kou Xuan's words, Hou Yu asked curiously, "Who?"
Kou Xuan calmly spit out five words, "Second Shelter."
After hearing Kou Xuan's words, the pupils of the four people present could not help but shrink slightly.
As high-level officials of the Kou family, the four of them know the information about major shelters very clearly.
The Second Sanctuary, as one of the oldest sanctuaries of mankind, has been in the "Boundless Heart Sea-Core Area" since its birth.
At that time, in order to establish that sanctuary, countless human elites worked hard and endured humiliation before finally creating this sanctuary.
And because this is one of the oldest sanctuaries of mankind and the only one built in the "Core Area of ​​the Infinite Heart Sea", the strength of the Second Sanctuary has always been the strongest in the human camp.
This can be seen from the fact that the 2nd shelter can easily support the 3rd, 4th, and 5th shelters.
It is said that there are three eighth-level catastrophes in the Second Sanctuary, and each of them is a well-known figure. They are known as the Three Heavenly Kings.
And Li Feng’s mother is one of the Heavenly Kings.
This is why she is so powerful, so arrogant and domineering, and why she can spend huge amounts of resources to build the fourth shelter.
After all, the power controlled by Guang Lifeng's mother is stronger than that of the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th shelters.
Although the status of all major shelters is equal, it has to be said that the entire second shelter is the true core of humanity.
Moreover, most of the masters and geniuses from the major shelters will choose to defect to the second shelter after their strength reaches the peak of level 5 and goes to the "core area".
This has also resulted in the strength of the second shelter rising steadily over the years.
And it is precisely because of this transcendent status that apart from staring at the group of lunatics in the 3rd shelter, the 2nd shelter will only pay some attention to Li Feng's 4th shelter.
As for other shelters, they generally don't care.
Therefore, it is indeed a bit surprising that such a behemoth would suddenly visit Kou Xuan.
Thinking like this, Kou Yu couldn't help but ask, "Why is the second shelter looking for us?"
Kou Xuan sat on the main seat, his eyes neither happy nor sad, "To win over."
"Win over?" Kou Yu frowned.
Even with his pride, he knew that compared to the Second Sanctuary, the Kou family was completely worthless.
So he couldn't help but said, "How can we help them?"
Kou Xuan said with a half-smile, "That's the problem."
"For twenty or thirty years, the Second Sanctuary has never tried to win over us, but suddenly it started to win over us recently. Don't you think it's strange?"
"And their goal is very clear. That is, let us try to prevent the 3rd Sanctuary from establishing an "overseas enclave" within the 6th Sanctuary. Or, even if it is established, we must give the 4th Sanctuary the same treatment."
Hearing Kou Xuan's words, Gao Changming wondered, "As a sanctuary in the "core area", why is the Second Sanctuary so sensitive to "overseas enclaves"?"
Kou Xuan smiled and said, "That's the problem."
He said, "Combining the anomalies of Qiu Tu and the "Isolated Mountains", I think the only reason that can be explained is that the "Isolated Mountains" will collapse and the "edge area" will be merged into the "core area."
Hearing Kou Xuan's words, the four people present were shocked to the point of silence.
I have to say that this conjecture is indeed bold, but also very reasonable.
But this also raises a question. Where will the Kou family go?
Thinking of this, Kou Yu raised his head, and his face was no longer as irritable and unruly as before.
He asked, "Brother, so... did we choose the second shelter?"
"After all, you did deliberately let go of Sanzhou today and then forced Shen Yuzhou to leave."
Speaking of this, he seemed to think of Li Feng's congratulations to Princess Xi today. His eyes lit up and he said in a daze, "So, that bitch Lin Xi also chose the second shelter?"
Hearing his brother's words, Kou Xuan shook his head slightly.
He said, "No. I didn't choose the second shelter. Lin Xi didn't choose the second shelter either."
Kou Yu was confused. Hou Yu and the other three raised their heads with confused expressions on their faces.
Kou Xuan said calmly, "We all chose Qiu Tu."
"And everything today is just a show."
Kou Yu, Hou Yu and others were confused and felt that their CPUs were burned out.
Seeing this, Kou Xuan couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face.
He said with sharp eyes, "All of this is actually the plan of me, Lin Xi and Yan Ai."
A fleeting moment passed by, and inadvertently, the five days passed easily as if they were being gently manipulated by an invisible hand.
Five days later. The Infinite Heart Sea - Dongcheng Area - Zhaoji's Underground Palace.
In that dark room, Qiu Tu was like a shining star, sitting there quietly cross-legged.
The power of catastrophe, which was almost condensed into liquid, surrounded him, making his whole body filled with layers of mist.
Along with his breathing, the power of mist-like catastrophe also continued to shrink and expand. The terrifying fluctuations spread toward the outside like ripples.
I don’t know how long it took, maybe only a minute, or maybe four or five hours.
Accompanied by a crisp "Zheng——" sound! The next second, the center of the dense clouds in the sky in the Dongcheng area suddenly dented, forming a huge bottomless vortex.
Within the clouds, electric light flashed. At first it was just a weak light like a firefly, but in an instant it turned into purple lightning as thick as a dragon. These lightnings were intertwined and entangled with each other, making a deafening roar, each one seemed to be about to blow away.
The sky split in half.
Along with the terrifying vision of heaven and earth, a gap opened in the middle of the sky, and the endless power of disaster poured down and fell on Qiu Tu!
Qiu Tu closed his eyes tightly, and a small seal emerged from between his eyebrows and landed on the top of his head, accepting the baptism of the powerful power of disaster with him!
Along with that baptism, Qiu Tu's aura also increased steadily, and soon reached the level when he killed "Dongliu"!
The next second, Qiu Tu's eyes suddenly opened!
His golden eyes seemed to contain the entire world, revealing endless majesty!
Seventh level!
In the underground palace, after carefully practicing and realizing the opportunity, Qiu Tu slowly stopped practicing.
At this time, the strange phenomena of heaven and earth had long since disappeared and would not attract other people's attention, so Qiu Tu opened the area and allowed others to enter and exit.
As a result, as soon as he opened the area, Qiu Tu felt a woman's figure suddenly appear in the Dongcheng area.
She has graceful curves and a voluptuous figure. Even in the simplest professional clothes, she can wear it with endless amorous feelings. Her facial features are exquisite, and the corners of her eyes are slightly raised, outlining a touch of natural charm. She is Guan Xiao.
This is one of the new "abilities" Qiu Tu gained after being promoted to the seventh level.
In the 18 areas controlled by Qiu Tu, Qiu Tu is now almost omniscient and omnipotent.
No matter if any living being appears in the 18 areas controlled by Qiu Tu, Qiu Tu can detect it immediately, and he can also know what that living being is doing anytime and anywhere.
——And this ability can still be used even after Qiu Tu leaves these 18 areas.
In other words, after Qiu Tu arranged the 18 areas, even if he was in the real world, even if he was in another area of ​​the "Infinite Heart Sea", he could know everything that happened in the area he controlled at any time.
In addition to this, the second ability Qiu Tu gained after being promoted to the seventh-level Cataclysm is that he can not only move instantly within these 18 areas by himself.
He can also teleport any objects and creatures within his jurisdiction to his side.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu made a move.
The next second, Guan Xiao, who was flying at high speed, suddenly disappeared into the air. Then, he bumped into Qiu Tu's arms!
Guan Xiao was obviously startled when she was suddenly moved. She reflexively wanted to activate her ability to resist.
But at this moment, Qiu Tu gently put his hand on hers, and then said lightly, "It's me."
Hearing the familiar voice and smelling the familiar scent, Guan Xiao's body stiffened for a moment, and then he restrained his conditioned resistance.
She raised her head and carefully identified the environment she was in. Then she was surprised to find that at some point, she had arrived at Zhao Ji's underground palaces, and Qiu Tu was beside her!
'The speaker's strength has improved again. It's really too fast.'
Thinking like this, Guan Xiao couldn't help but relax.
After relaxing, Guan Xiao returned to her usual charming self. She winked at Qiu Tu charmingly, and then said coquettishly, "Speaker, if you want me to throw myself into my arms, you can directly
Come on, why don’t you just do it yourself?”
Qiu Tu smiled when he heard this.
With a wave of his hand and a thought, he made the lighting equipment in the entire palace light up in circles, and then he said slowly,
"Don't be impatient. You came to me as soon as possible after I opened the permission to enter and exit the area. You must have encountered something big, so you have been staying outside, right?"
"Tell me, what happened to make you so anxious?"
Hearing Qiu Tu talking about business, Guan Xiao's face couldn't help but become serious.
She climbed up from Qiu Tu's arms and said with a serious face, "Speaker, you are right. Something has indeed happened, and it is a big deal."
She paused, then commented, "Everything is a mess out there right now."
"A mess?" Qiu Tu didn't expect Guan Xiao to comment like this. He frowned slightly and then asked, "What's going on? Tell me."
After hearing Qiu Tu's words, Guan Xiao smoothed her silky hair and tucked the scattered hair behind her ears.
Then she said with a serious face, "You have been in retreat for the past few days, and the entire "Northwest Region" has turned into a mess."
“The whole ‘Northwest Territory’ situation is a complete mess.”
She paused and explained in detail, "In the beginning, Lin Xi got the support of the 4th shelter. After offending the 3rd shelter, she brazenly attacked the 6th shelter."
"Soon after taking over the three states of Border, You, and Yun, Lin Xi backhandedly captured Yanyan and imprisoned her on the pretext that Yanyan was a traitor."
"Because Yanyan is from the Ministry of Interior, the 8th Asylum and all four states put collective pressure on her to release Yanyan. But Lin Xi directly refused."
"Seeing that the negotiation failed, Governor Tang directly began to mobilize troops and prepare to use force to coerce her."
"But Princess Xi didn't panic at all. And she didn't give in even an inch."
Qiu Tu frowned slightly when he heard this.
Guan Xiao continued, "Soon after, Lin Xi, Chen Bing, Fengqizhou, You, and Yunzhou defended the 6th Sanctuary and our four-state group's attack. Then while delaying time, they actually relied on the 4th Sanctuary.
Shangen, secretly break through to the sixth level before the battle."
"Because no one knew that she, the witness of King Kang's fiasco, dared to do it again, so they were completely unprepared and actually allowed her to advance successfully."
"However, even though she has become a sixth-level master, we also have sixth-level evil gods like jackals to fight against, so we are not vain at all and want to continue negotiating with her."
"Who knows what the result was? She didn't know what kind of tricks she had, and she actually abandoned us and led a group of experts to brazenly attack the 3rd Sanctuary Envoy Group that was preparing to evacuate."
"There are many experts in the 3rd Sanctuary Envoy Group, and Shen Yuzhou is still a veteran of the sixth level."
"But because Shen Yuzhou is only a civil servant, her combat effectiveness is not that strong. Therefore, although she was able to cope with Princess Xi's siege at the beginning, she soon fell into a disadvantage."
"In particular, Princess Xi's catastrophic ability is the "Black Flame of Revenge". The more she is injured, the faster her strength grows! So not long after, the 3rd Sanctuary Envoy Group suffered heavy losses, and Shen Yuzhou was also defeated, seriously injured, and fled in a hurry."
"Princess Xi chased her all the way, trying to eliminate the root cause. In the end, Shen Yuzhou escaped death at the cost of breaking off his own arm."
"This incident directly caused an uproar in the human camp. It also made us dumbfounded."
"After all, for so many years, the major shelters have maintained relative restraint and will not easily fight, let alone attack the other party's senior officials. Princess Xi has completely broken the conventions between shelters."
"Both we and Sanctuary 3 suspect that Princess Xi is crazy."
"And Sanctuary No. 3 is even more determined to send troops to seek justice because it cannot bear this breath."
Speaking of this, Guan Xiao's eyes became more serious, and she said,
"Faced with the special operations team composed of three sixth-level catastrophes sent by the 3rd Sanctuary, Princess Xi retreated steadily, and then asked for help from the 4th Sanctuary."
"Of course the 4th Asylum ignored her. As a result, she actually broke the news publicly. The reasons why she changed the asylum serial number, tore up the "overseas enclave" bill with the 3rd Asylum, and the envoys who attacked the 3rd Asylum
, all under the orders of the 2nd and 4th shelters.”
"It was the 2nd and 4th shelters who wanted to restrict the 3rd shelter, so they gave her so much support and gave her orders."
"And not only her, Sanctuary 6 has now been subordinated to Sanctuary 2 and 4."
"Her capture of Border, You, and Yunzhou was just a big double act."
Speaking of this, Guan Xiao swallowed.
She has been engaged in intelligence work for many years. What big scene has she not seen? But she has really never seen this big scene.
So she suppressed her inner emotions and continued, "Then the 4th shelter denied and refuted the rumor. But the 3rd shelter didn't believe it."
"Because. In the whole thing, it was the 2nd and 4th shelters that really benefited. And Princess Xi did get a lot of support from the 4th shelter. "Shangen" is the evidence."
"Also, don't forget that Princess Xi not only expelled the envoys from the 3rd Sanctuary, but also imprisoned Yanyan, destroying your influence on the 7th Sanctuary."
"In addition to the 6th shelter she invaded, the only ones in the entire human camp that have not been offended by her are the 2nd, 4th and 5th shelters."
"Who would believe this if it wasn't ordered by Sanctuary 2 and Sanctuary 4?"
"It can't be that Lin Xi and Kou Xuan are acting there to deliberately frame the Second Shelter, right?"
"What do they want? Is there a force in the human camp that is more powerful and has more potential than the Second Sanctuary?"
"So, the 3rd shelter directly confronted the 4th shelter."
Qiu Tu:???
