Chapter 137: The Longer the Delay, the More Advantageous It Becomes

"It’s strange that Yi Chen doesn’t plan to run to the Misty Forest himself?"

"Yes! Yi Chen’s thoughts are indeed hard to fathom."

The audience in the live room shared the same confusion as Bai Ruo Xin.

Logically, Yi Chen would rush to the Misty Forest at the earliest opportunity.

Because even if the four armies encountered any powerful fierce beasts, Yi Chen would head there immediately, whether he was creating a new skill or training.

First, it would help clear expansion obstacles for the four armies, and second, it would serve as a break where he could practice his skills and gain practical experience.

At this stage, due to the significant increase in territory and distance, some fierce beasts that were too strong for the four armies to handle were left unattended by Yi Chen.

He chose to delay until he had time or until the high-end combat power of the four armies could deal with them on their own.

The main reason was that leaving this area alone had little impact on the development and expansion of the Flame Mountain Tribe.

However, it was entirely different regarding the human tribes.

For instance, after learning about the Yunxia Tribe, Yi Chen rushed over immediately.

Currently, the population of the Sacred Water Tribe in the Misty Forest alone exceeds thirty thousand, along with various small tribes scattered around.

If he could conquer them, it would cause a massive population increase for the Flame Mountain Tribe and bolster the combat power of the four armies.

This would significantly drive and enhance both the development of the Flame Mountain Tribe and the speed of their expansion.

Given such major benefits, Yi Chen, who was usually aggressive, still chose to postpone, which naturally surprised everyone.

"Ultimately, it’s probably a matter of risk," someone analyzed. "Though Yi Chen is aggressive, if we recall carefully, his attitude towards enemies seems to lean more towards crushing them."

"Previously, when dealing with fierce beasts that the four armies could not kill, it appeared somewhat risky, but in reality, Yi Chen had the strength to effortlessly slay those beasts."

"The same goes for the Yunxia Tribe; it seemed dangerous, but Yi Chen had absolute confidence of victory."

"Guli once attempted to assassinate the fake deity of the Yunxia Tribe and returned severely injured."

"At that time, it seemed to us that Guli’s strength was not much weaker than Yi Chen’s. Yi Chen going to conquer the Yunxia Tribe seemed a bit risky."

"But in reality, with the Method of All Laws, even hundreds of Guli combined wouldn’t be his match."

"He simply didn’t regard the fake deity of the Yunxia Tribe, who had injured Guli, as a threat. In fact, the fake deity was so terrified of his strength that it didn’t dare to show itself."

This analysis quickly gained the agreement of most people.

Yi Chen had a strong, assertive style, practicing a straightforward approach to tasks, which was entirely different from being reckless and rash.

"So, in this battle between the Flame Mountain Tribe and the Sacred Water Tribe, is it likely the Flame Mountain Tribe will win?"

"Now that the battle begins, the Sacred Water Tribe obviously has a clear advantage. That War City leader, it’s unclear if he was sent by the council as a fake heavy criminal or if he genuinely possesses capability and intellect."

"This guy not only stood out among the many fake heavy criminals infiltrating the Sacred Water Tribe but also successfully seized the position of tribe leader."

"He even had the audacity to use the Sacred Spring and control fierce beasts to conquer the strongest fierce beast in the Misty Forest."

"Currently, the fierce beast army under War City is far stronger than the overall strength of the Flame Mountain Tribe."

"But after some time, it will be hard to say."

"Yi Chen and the Flame Mountain Tribe are like the current situation of our human federation. The longer the delay, the stronger the power, and the greater the chance of victory."

"What do you mean that Yi Chen and the Flame Mountain Tribe are like our human federation? It is precisely because of the various new skills created by Yi Chen that we can prolong the time and strengthen our power!"

"I hope it doesn’t drag on too long, or else War City will have no hope of winning."

"Indeed…"

To the audience in the live room, the battle between the Flame Mountain Tribe and the Sacred Water Tribe resembled the current situation of humanity.

Although humanity was currently the first to strike, attacking the Angelic Beings, they had won battle after battle in the past month, forcing the Angelic Beings to retreat.

The initiative seemed to be completely in the hands of humanity.

But this was because the Three-Eyed Tribe and the Frost Tribe had not yet sent reinforcements to the battlefield.

Compared to the overall strength of the Angelic Beings, the Three-Eyed Tribe, and the Frost Tribe, humanity fell significantly short.

Not to mention, the other races might be watching closely and could join the alliance of three races at any time.

The same was true for the Flame Mountain Tribe; while the Flame Mountain Tribe might be the first to invade, the strength of the Sacred Water Tribe was clearly much greater than that of the Flame Mountain Tribe.

From the perspective of all humanity, they naturally hoped that the Military could prolong the situation as much as possible.

This way, humanity could fight against three, and even if other races joined the alliance of three races, it wouldn’t matter.

However, for the Flame Mountain Tribe, people hoped Yi Chen wouldn’t delay for too long and would invade the Misty Forest as soon as possible.

After War City gained the position of tribal chief from the Sacred Water Tribe, it immediately began to expand and gather various minerals.

From these actions, it was clear that War City was increasing its own resources.

War City’s plan was certainly to wait until the Flame Mountain Tribe expanded into the Misty Forest and then use the fierce beasts it controlled to defeat Yi Chen and the Flame Mountain Tribe.

Afterward, they would propose a merger, citing righteous reasons and giving the position of tribal chief to Yi Chen.

This way, War City would not only easily become a figure of great status within the Flame Mountain Tribe but would also have the standing to be on equal footing with Yi Chen.

Relying on Yi Chen’s sense of compensation, if War City seized the opportunity, it could potentially develop a brotherly relationship with Yi Chen.

One could say that War City had the best chance of gaining Yi Chen’s trust after Bai Ruo Xin.

If they were to lose to Yi Chen and the Flame Mountain Tribe, War City would voluntarily surrender.

Though they had developed the Sacred Water Tribe to over thirty thousand in population and had collected quite a few spirit mines in advance, they wouldn’t achieve as high a status as if they had defeated Yi Chen and then proposed a merger, willingly stepping down from the position of tribal chief.

The difference was vast.

The only headache for the people was that although the council held the majority, War City could likely be a group of ambitious individuals trying to control Yi Chen.

If that were the case, should War City succeed, the people would also get access to the new skills created by Yi Chen early on.

But they would also have to worry that War City might guide Yi Chen to create skills beneficial to the ambitious individuals seeking to overthrow the federation.

With Yi Chen’s intelligence and mindset, the possibility of being controlled and directed was minimal, but it wasn’t entirely impossible.

Regardless, if War City successfully gained Yi Chen’s trust, it would be a net benefit for all humanity.

For this reason, the people hoped that War City could be the victorious side.

……

In the weapon refining room,

After Bai Ruo Xin left, Yi Chen continued to comprehend the fire laws.

The audience in the live room was not wrong.

He was indeed very tempted by the population of tens of thousands in the Sacred Water Tribe.

The reason he hadn’t rushed to the Misty Forest was entirely due to caution.

He didn’t mind taking risks, but he would absolutely not make reckless moves if he lacked self-defense capabilities.

With Luo Shi’s strength at the first level of the Spirit Consciousness stage, along with the Cloud Treading Technique and Method of All Laws,

he had been discovered and lost an arm after leading away most of the fierce beasts. The fierce beasts controlled by the Sacred Water Tribe were undoubtedly very powerful.

Just in case, he could only resist the temptation and wait until he successfully refined three types of spiritual artifacts, significantly enhancing his strength and self-defense capabilities before visiting the Misty Forest.

Fortunately, it wouldn’t take too long.

Creating the weapon refining technique wasn’t too difficult.

After a month of hard work, he had almost reached the peak of comprehending the fire laws.

In about a month, he would likely have no problem creating the weapon refining technique.

Once the spiritual artifacts were refined, he could set off.
