Chapter 2068: Chapter 2066: Saint Issue

Along the way, Peter Brown still saw quite a few useful items, particularly several Jade Slips for Alchemy which really tempted him. However, Peter managed to suppress the urge to exchange them using belief energy, because having such a large amount of belief energy is a risky matter—it’s not good to be too ostentatious.

After buying some Foundational Building Pills and Star Multiplying Pills, Peter returned to the camp.

"How did it go, what did you buy?" Due to the lull in combat, comrades would occasionally come out for a chat, and one of them asked loudly.

"They had things to do; I just bought some Foundational Building Pills and came back."

"Ha, bullsh*t ’had things to do,’ they went to the brothel, right? Haha, they always have to fire off a round before they come back."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Peter also smiled. In such a high-risk location where you might not have a tomorrow, seeking women is also a way for everyone to vent, and there’s really nothing to criticize about it.

"Look, Peter, hurry up and upgrade to the 1000 Star Level. Only when you reach the 1000 Star Level do you basically have the ability to resist the energy from the cracks and enter them for Cultivation. That’s also a good place, and many of our Generals have entered there."

When Peter heard this, he glanced at the place of the cracks, curious: "Does this crack move?"

Unexpectedly, when he asked this question, everyone suddenly fell silent.

"What’s wrong?" Peter asked, puzzled.

After a while, a middle-aged Soldier said, "Do you know what this place of the crack is now? Ten years ago, this was our front-line camp, and even further ahead there was one of our cities. But now, it has all fallen, and the whole area has become land of the Demon Clan."

"So, it means that the place of the cracks can move?" Peter said in shock.

"Yes, as long as someone invades the opponent’s territory and uses a kind of will invasion, they can turn that place into their own land, and the crack will then move forward a bit."

"What is used as the energy for this will invasion?"

"It’s none other than belief energy. Both sides prepare a large amount of belief energy for the fight to take over. A large amount of belief energy will be poured in, and then the Foreign Tribe, due to lacking resistance, will have their will significantly weakened and thus be eroded by the opponent’s will."

So there is such a thing!

Peter Brown found out about some things he didn’t know before.

Sighing, a Soldier said, "We fight fiercely here, risking our lives, but the people in the Rear don’t know anything about it!"

"No way around it, if we don’t defend, the entire world could be lost, and we would be facing the extermination of our race. No one wants their own land to become land of a Foreign Tribe, right?"

Everyone went quiet suddenly.

Peter could feel a deeply sorrowful atmosphere and asked, "From this perspective, it seems our power is still much weaker than the Demon Clan’s, right?"

"You don’t know? In fact, our world is encircled on six sides, everyone wants to invade our realm, and war has never stopped. Fortunately, we are protected by the Six Sages, each capable of holding off one side, which prevents disasters from occurring. However, for some reason, the Demon Clan should also only be able to command one Saint in this area but then they all of a sudden combined the power of two Saints, catching our Saint off-guard and causing an injury. Even though it was just a brief moment, that attack left our Saint severely wounded and immediately weaker, leading to the loss of some territories."

Peter said, "That’s not right, if it was the arrival of two Saints and together they attacked, we wouldn’t be able to hold them off at all, right?"

"That’s not necessarily the case. Our Saint exerted full strength, forming a formation here, the gathering flag formation, which is not an ordinary formation—it can resist the power of a Saint by gathering the strength of many. Naturally, it held back the push from the other side. Another factor is possibly that one of their Saints could only stay shortly and didn’t dare to leave for too long. After attacking, they had to leave."

So there’s that!

Peter Brown looked back at the crack, which was essentially the intersection of the two realms, and enlightenment dawned upon him. His side was currently at a disadvantage, and he wondered what the Saint’s condition was now. He guessed the injuries might be too severe this time, that’s why they were consistently on the defense.

Considering the situation on the Demon Clan’s side, Peter suspected that the Demon Clan had a way to quickly maneuver. They had fooled their enemy and then quickly moved a Saint here, hoping to break through the Silver Realm in one fell swoop. If a Saint of the Silver Realm was killed, the Demon Clan would completely have the chance to invade.

"That’s not right, right now all realms can only promote six Saints, right? If there is an extra Saint, that realm wouldn’t be able to withstand it. If they attacked us with full force, even if they broke through, their losses would be huge, and the gain wouldn’t compensate for the loss," Peter questioned again.

Hearing this, everyone had a smile at the corners of their mouths, and one of the Soldiers said, "You know too little about things here. If the Demon Clan can kill our Saint, they can invade this area and obtain a Saint Quota. Then the Demon Clan would have a Saint in our world. If that happens, they will enter the era of Seven Saints, and their power will be even greater."

So, there is a quota for Saints!

Peter Brown finally got to know some conditions for Becoming a Saint.

A Soldier said, "The Sage’s World also has its hierarchies. If you have the power, you can also become a Saint, and you can even become a Saint that dominates a world, possessing the existence of six Sub-saints."

Hearing this, everyone laughed. For them, such a thing was truly a joke. Becoming a Saint was out of the question, even surviving was hard enough.

But Peter suddenly felt a yearning in his heart; if he really could progress that way, it was not impossible for him to have hope.

"Becoming that top-level Saint... you can have whatever you want. Even reviving the Phantom Realm is completely possible. Alas, there has never been such a Saint, and our current situation is not so good. One of the Saints has encountered a problem, and it’s unclear how severe the issue is," a Soldier sighed and said.

Everyone looked towards the place of the cracks and fell silent again. Without a Saint, they didn’t have much of a chance of winning.

At that moment, an idea struck Peter: Revival!

Thinking of reviving the Phantom Realm, he thought of his parents and family there. His fists clenched tightly, and for the first time, he found a glimmer of hope.
