Dragon's Origin

Chapter 702: The Storm is Coming (Part 2)

“Five hundred years ago, our ancestors had already demarcated their territory inside.” The current Grand Elder of the Dai family directly produced an item and placed it on the table in the center of all parties: “The original territory still belongs to each family. Any objections?”

The item that the Grand Elder of the Dai family produced was the small boundary marker that Wang Sheng had dug out from under the solid ice in the core of the Thousand Absolute Ground that time, with the Dai family's mark engraved on it.

Since the Dai family has a boundary marker, it is very obvious that other families also have boundary markers. There is no doubt about this. Now it is covered by solid ice and submerged by lakes, so there is no way to find it temporarily, but as long as the water recedes, each family will have a way to find their own boundary marker.

The boundary marker has an identification array on it. It can be sensed after approaching a certain range. Moreover, the boundary marker is a passive sensing array, which will only react after being stimulated by a certain array. There is no need to worry about the spiritual energy being exhausted and unable to use it.

Of course, all parties have no objection. The territory snatched by the ancestors back then of course belongs to their own family. Could it be given to another family? What everyone wants to discuss now are those territories that originally did not belong to the eight major families.

Five hundred years ago, there were more than just the eight major families that participated in the attack on the Lin family. There were also dozens of small families and sects, and even the royal family participated. However, at that time, the other families suffered extremely heavy losses. In order to avoid being annexed by the eight major families, they withdrew in time. The royal family was forced to accept the conditions of the eight major families after losing a great deal of power at that time, and became an emperor in name only.

Back then, the Thousand Absolute Ground was to be sealed up, so naturally it was impossible for each family to go in and fight for anything. Now that the core of the Thousand Absolute Ground is to be opened, it is natural to settle the accounts clearly. However, those small families and small sects are no longer qualified to participate in this feast.

In the eyes of the eight major families, giving those small families and small sects a chance to enfeoff vassals and establish a country is already a great gift. Do they still want to ask for something from the core of the Thousand Absolute Ground? Too greedy, right?

While the eight major families were painfully scolding others for being greedy, they skillfully gathered what should have belonged to others into a large circle and then slowly divided it up. Little did they know that the people from those greedy small families and small sects in their minds were also secretly gathering to discuss.

How could such a big movement in the core of the Thousand Absolute Ground be concealed from the world? In addition to the eight major families, Wang Sheng allowed at least 20 families to build camps in the Thousand Absolute Ground back then. In addition to the eight major families, there are Worry-Free City, the royal family, the Old Lord Temple, the Royal Treasure Pavilion, and other large merchants and small families and sects.

With so many camps, could the movement of the aura eruption in the core of the Thousand Absolute Ground back then be completely concealed? Even the eight major families could not monitor the core of the Thousand Absolute Ground, which is thousands of miles in circumference, to death, right? Now, I don’t know how many people have gone in to see it, and they are all waiting in some hidden places for the solid ice to melt!

Don't look at the fact that the whole world is calm now, with singing and dancing every night in the capital, and enjoying life as it should be, but in places that ordinary people can't see, some fishermen who live by the water and are good at diving have been gathered in many places by I don’t know how many families secretly using various methods of coercion and inducement.

Their task is to teach a group of legendary masters how to swim, how to dive, and how to deep dive as soon as possible.

The solid ice in the Ice Basin is more than ten zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length) thick in the thin places, and more than a hundred zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length) in the central area. If you can't dive, even if you get to the place, you may have to be blind. While the solid ice hasn't melted, when will you learn to dive if you don't learn now?

A group of legendary masters listened to the fishermen who they usually wouldn't even look at teaching swimming and diving skills like enlightened children, and their humble attitude was even more serious than when they followed their father to practice the family's highest martial arts secrets.

This enthusiasm alone scared the fishermen who were brought here in their sleep, and almost scared them to kneel down to these big shots again. After much persuasion, they plucked up the courage to correct the movements of those big shots. But I have to say, it is still very relieving to see them clumsily learning to swim and accidentally drinking water when changing breaths.

In places that ordinary people can't see, I don't know how many forces are mobilizing experts. In the Thousand Absolute Ground, there are at least ten times more people in this half month than usual. There is a feeling of being overcrowded in each camp.

The wind is filling the building before the mountain rain comes. At this moment, all parties have smelled a little bit of the smoke of war, just waiting for the arrival of a certain moment.

Every day, people dive into the edge of the Ice Basin to see how much the solid ice has melted. Unfortunately, even in the tropical rainforest climate, the solid ice that is hundreds of zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length) thick cannot be melted in half a month, and everyone can only wait.

Although anxious, this is already the best situation. It is better to melt into lake water than to have all solid ice, right? The secret of 500 years of closure can be unlocked as long as you log in for a period of time. How could anyone be unhappy?

Then, inexplicable killings began. On the periphery of the core of the Thousand Absolute Ground, small battles often occur. As time goes by, the frequency of battles is getting higher and higher, and each time it is so loud that it alarms dozens of miles around. There is no way, the worst is that the masters of the legendary realm fight, and they can't do it with a little movement.

At this time, the eight major families also knew that the seal must not be able to be sealed, so they could only let all parties investigate. Fortunately, all parties are deliberately controlling the scale. No one wants to fight to the death with others at this juncture and lose their strength. They are all holding back and waiting to enter the core of the Thousand Absolute Ground before unleashing their big moves.

No one saw Wang Sheng's shadow. Wang Sheng alone had once again found a loophole and entered the core of the Thousand Absolute Ground. Riding his speedboat, he was scanning the bottom of the lake bit by bit.

The solid ice on the shallowest ten zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length) of the lake has completely melted. Wang Sheng can easily dive into the water more than 20 meters deep. Relying on the Six-Character Secret and the Seven-Character Secret, he uses the Walking Character Secret as the main character secret to explore the entire exposed lake bottom like exploring an array.

The inside has not melted yet, but Wang Sheng has already begun to detect and scan the external area first. Wang Sheng has recorded any area in the individual soldier combat terminal. The complex terrain of the lake bottom will be a key to Wang Sheng's ability to escape in the future.

In addition, it is not only the very center that has the real big secret. Everyone has this consensus, so Wang Sheng will not let go of these marginal areas. The real secret of the Thousand Absolute Ground may be scattered in these inconspicuous areas.

As for whether the secrets of the Thousand Absolute Ground will be concentrated together, just look at the distribution areas excavated by each of the eight major families and you will know that there can't be only one place.

Wang Sheng guessed this. The eight major families may also know it themselves, but I don't know if the people from other small families and small sects also know it.

However, does it matter whether they know it or not?

Wang Sheng's scan finally entered the inner circle of the core of the Thousand Absolute Ground as time went by.
