Chapter 1396: Chapter 987: The Book of Heaven?!_2

But as the fleet captain, Border City still showed enough sincerity.

They dispatched the strongest Extraordinary to provide an escort.

Those were the Hellsprings Reverse light cavalrymen.

At this moment, these light cavalrymen looked at Li Changhe and fell silent.

Although Li Changhe had some disguise on, as Extraordinaries, they still recognized his face.

Too alike, he was too much like the Supreme King.

He is... the Supreme King from another world!

The light cavalrymen’s hearts stirred, doesn’t that mean in another world, the one who killed the Different Pupil was the Supreme King himself? Damn!

And among them, the Different Pupil wore an expression of abnormality.

He could feel that Li Changhe was somewhat vigilant towards him.

This was naturally beyond reproach.

After all, in the main world, the Different Pupil’s physical body was smeared on the wall by Li Changhe and Li Luoling together.

Although, in this world, the Different Pupil and the Supreme King were comrades-in-arms. But Li Changhe still couldn’t help but harbor some doubts.

"You are the Hellsprings Reverse light cavalry, right? Indeed, your strength is remarkable, each of you an Earth Level Extraordinary." Li Changhe spoke up, "Are you the elite of the light cavalry? Or are you saying..."

The light cavalrymen didn’t respond, instead, they looked towards the Minister of Military Affairs, who nodded, "Trust him. Although he’s a bit young, he is indeed Li Changhe... Looking at him makes even me feel old."

After pondering, the light cavalrymen replied, "Under the leadership of the Supreme King, all of us in the Hellsprings Reverse light cavalry are Earth Level Extraordinaries!"

All members at Earth Level? This deeply moved the players.

This was a power that even Li Changhe found surprising; one should know that in the history of the main world, the appearance of seven Earth Level Extraordinaries in the Extraordinary Association of Hua Country was already astounding—a so-called era of Extraordinary prosperity.

Li Changhe’s parents, Ghost Hand and Mute Woman, achieved Earth Level before they were even thirty, overturning almost all Extraordinaries’ recognition. This sufficiently illustrates the rarity and strength of Earth Level Extraordinaries.

And in this world, not only was this light cavalry squad entirely Earth Level, but all of the light cavalry were Earth Level Extraordinaries!

No wonder they were hailed as the strongest!

Indeed, a legion composed entirely of Earth Level Extraordinaries definitely had the qualifications to be called the strongest!

Switch sides? With hundreds of Earth Level Extraordinaries switching sides, even a Great Chaos Demon would have to flee. If they piled on recklessly, willing to sacrifice lives, it would be enough to replace even a Demigod Projection.

The Supreme King, to think he could develop such mystery to this extent... No wonder he was so respected.

Because he truly accomplished the feat of creating an era of Extraordinary prosperity.

If this were in future generations, it would be written about in textbooks, and maybe even students would be required to memorize passages about him.

"Being the same person, why does he have the appearance of a top student, and why do people call me a brute?" Li Changhe fell into contemplation. Should I actually be a top student?

"Uh, although he’s good at studying, his personality is indeed quite rough." The Minister of Military Affairs added.

"You are still the current General." Chen Yu reminded him, "Ancestor Chiyou himself has acknowledged it. Don’t underestimate yourself."

Indeed, it’s a case of different strokes for different folks.

However, even though Li Changhe himself is the contemporary General, he hasn’t formally traversed the transcendental path.

Nor can he understand the abilities of the Supreme King. He’s also unaware of the difficulties in delving into the extraordinary.

"He was able to pioneer a new transcendental route and elevate all of you to Earth Level. So, just what realm has he reached himself? What level had he achieved the last time you saw him?" Li Changhe continued to inquire.

The Light Cavalry hesitated for a moment before responding, "General, our Light Cavalry squad has been in this giant city for three years now. When the fleet comes for repairs next time, other Light Cavalry squads should come to replace us. So, our knowledge of the Supreme King also stops at three years ago."

"Switch every three years?" Qiu Wentian asked.

"More or less. The Alliance’s research into magical skills advances rapidly, almost daily. To keep up with the progress, we’ve adopted a rotational system," the Different Pupil answered. "As for the Supreme King... ever since he started focusing on the mysteries, he’s stopped intervening. His current strength is unclear. But five years ago, the fleet found an ancient bronze coffin in a large lake in the inland area. It is said to have come from an ancient extraordinary inheritance."

"A large lake? Bronze coffin?" Li Changhe and Qiu Wentian frowned: "Execution of Corpses from the Ghost Valley?"

Three Corpses God!

The bronze coffin of the Three Corpses God in the main world was discovered in a large lake inland of Hua Country, leading to a series of catastrophes.

"Did he open the bronze coffin?" Li Changhe quickly asked. The Supreme King of this world didn’t possess Black Mud Divinity, and so, presumably, he couldn’t bear the Three Corpses transformation of the Three Corpses God.

"That’s correct," the Different Pupil said with surprise. "Did your world encounter it too?"

"It’s more than just an encounter..." Qiu Wentian sneered coldly. "The Tianyan Association used the Book of Heaven, in conjunction with the Ghost Valley Execution of Corpses, to nearly destroy the whole Extraordinary Association. Li’s different growth path from your Supreme King is because he became an orphan shortly after birth due to the Ghost Valley Execution of Corpses. The Extraordinary Association didn’t discover his presence, and he had never been in contact with any extraordinary beings until he became a player. He didn’t receive any extraordinary inheritance nor had any familial help. It was all because of the Book of Heaven, all because of the Three Corpses God within the bronze coffin."

"This..." The faces of the Light Cavalry changed, and the military commissioner’s face turned ashen.

"And you, Different Pupil, you were a Book of Heaven powerhouse in our world. Due to the Association’s downfall, you didn’t become a transcendent but instead a player. However, Li’s emergence slowed down the speed of your ascension to immortality. Thus, in a future timeline, to get back at Li, you ruthlessly executed Chen Yu. Do you understand why he’s wary of you?"

The Light Cavalry wore a look of shock, while the Different Pupil’s expression underwent several changes. After a moment of silence, he said, "That would never happen. I swear!"

"Enough," Li Changhe interjected to quell the commotion, asking, "Did the Supreme King open the bronze coffin? Was he affected? The Ghost Valley Execution of Corpses’ ability is basically kryptonite for transcendent beings."

"The Supreme King learned about the Three Corpses God inside the bronze coffin from the ancient tomb’s texts," another member of the Light Cavalry shook his head. "So, once the Supreme King made adequate preparations, he opened the bronze coffin and broke its neck straight away. The Supreme King may no longer engage in direct combat, but his strength is indeed of the heavenly level."

"Very good, as expected of a top scholar," Li Changhe nodded slightly. "Then what?"

"Then, the Supreme King decrypted a great number of ancient and lost magical skills from the corpse of the Three Corpses God. And he reformed and promoted them. Except for the completely vanished Extraordinary Soldier lineage, the Supreme King has restored the rest. But, five years ago, it seems that the Supreme King has entered some sort of bottleneck," the Light Cavalry member shook his head. "It’s unknown whether he was aiming for the Immortal Realm or developing an even more powerful magical skill. Since that time, he’s rarely appeared before us. It’s said that he spends the entire day frowning and repeatedly muttering the word ’one.’"

"One?" Li Changhe furrowed his brow, "What does that mean?"

"We don’t know," the Light Cavalry shook their heads. "It seems he’s fallen into some deep contemplation. Previously, when the Supreme King was developing a powerful magical skill, he also fell into this contemplative state. But it never lasted this long."

"It seems his condition isn’t that great, either," Li Changhe contemplated, still considering waiting for a meeting. "By the way, has your world’s Tianyan Association been eradicated?"

Since the Book of Heaven hadn’t altered the Supreme King’s fate, it might not be able to avoid pursuit by the Alliance. Considering the Tianyan Association’s actions, not a single one would be innocent if captured and executed. Not to mention there’s also the Book of Heaven, which seems malevolent by any reckoning. With the current scale of the Alliance, they should be able to handle it.

However, Li Changhe discovered that the Light Cavalry’s expressions were strange.

"You’re kidding, right? Has your Extraordinary Alliance not eradicated the Tianyan Association yet?" Qiu Wentian asked. "Could it be they’ve been allowing the Book of Heaven to wreak havoc?"

"Theoretically, there’s only one member of the Tianyan Association still alive..." the Different Pupil paused before responding. "That is, the Holder of the Book of Heaven. Moreover, he is the Supreme Commander of the Tianyan Association... our Supreme King."
