Chapter 69: The Tip of the Iceberg Shakes All Humanity

Yi Chen seemed to have good luck.

In just over two days, he successfully created the energy circulation pathway.

"Finally done!"

He couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

For ordinary people, studying and creating skills is definitely a very tedious task.

For him, it was the same.

The only reason he kept pushing through was that the new skill could make him, and the entire Flame Mountain Tribe, much stronger.

With his strength growing, and the Flame Mountain Tribe’s strength growing, they could conquer this planet filled with fierce beasts.

Even one day, they could point their swords toward the vast starry sky.

The larger the area they occupy, the greater his talent will be.

In this way, his talent could rise endlessly, continually improving.

Conversely, with an endlessly rising talent, his strength and realm could also continue to grow without limits.

At this stage, although the Flame Mountain Tribe was already invincible in the Flame Mountain range, and the expansion of their influence was steadily progressing, it was far from a comfortable position.

Yi Chen could only endure the solitude, suppressing his frustration, and work hard to create new skills.

Fortunately, the eight months of hard work were worth it.

The birth of the new skill was enough to increase his strength tenfold.

If the tribe members learned it, not only would their strength soar, but the speed of expanding their influence would also greatly increase.

…

"Here it comes! The new skill is coming!"

"This time, Yi Chen has no reason not to go out, right? It’s tough for those fake heavy criminals who have struggled to show off; finally, they get a chance to showcase themselves."

"The one who has truly worked hard is the Little Gold Ball. Despite being an impatient little rascal, it has stayed in the room for over half a year without making any noise. It’s impressive it has held on!"

The audience in the live room erupted with excitement.

Major news outlets quickly reported Yi Chen’s successful creation of the new skill.

In the live room, the number of viewers, already exceeding billions, continued to increase at an astonishing rate.

Various bosses, upon receiving reminders from their secretaries, paused or ended their meetings or any tasks and opened the live video immediately.

…

Creak!

As Yi Chen opened the door,

the Little Gold Ball jumped onto his shoulder, took a deep breath of the outside air, and excitedly danced around.

"Tribe Leader!"

Not far away, the guards taking shelter from the wind and snow hurriedly bowed and greeted.

"Let the high priest bring the tribe member who came with a message from Guli over here,"

Yi Chen instructed.

"Yes!"

The guard immediately sprinted towards the tribe.

Before long, the high priest arrived, jogging with a tribe member.

"Tribe Leader!"

"Nothing major has happened in the tribe recently, right?"

Yi Chen asked.

"No!"

The high priest quickly shook his head.

"I will go over to Guli’s side. While I’m away, if anything important happens, try to delay it. If it can’t wait, handle it yourself,"

Yi Chen said.

"It’s snowing heavily now, and the Flame Mountain is all white. It’s hard to tell the direction,"

the high priest reminded.

"It’s fine!"

Yi Chen waved his hand.

He turned to the tribe member who had delivered the message: "Along the way, you should remember any important areas, right?"

"Y-yes!"

The messenger felt nervous, his voice trembling.

Yi Chen paid no mind to it.

He grabbed the messenger’s arm.

With a surge of spirit power,

he flew upwards with the messenger, leaving the high priest speechless in shock.

Ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters…

They soared higher and higher.

In a moment, they crossed the valley.

After a brief adjustment and test, Yi Chen guided the messenger through the swirling snow, flying towards the southeast.

"The tribe leader truly is a reincarnation of a divine being…"

In front of the stone house, with a thud, a guard knelt down, worshipping Yi Chen as he vanished into the sky.

The high priest, mouth agape and face filled with disbelief, didn’t even notice the snowflakes landing on his face as he finally came to his senses.

Even though Yi Chen had already left, he prostrated on the ground, joining the guard in worship.

In the entire Flame Mountain Tribe, those who least believed Yi Chen was a divine being were the fake heavy criminals.

Next were the high priest and the priests of the Green Grass Tribe.

As messengers who communicate with the divine, they were the ones who understood best that divine beings did not exist.

But at this moment, the high priest began to doubt this judgment.

If he weren’t a reincarnated god, how could the tribe leader fly into the sky like a great bird without wings?

…

At this moment, in the live room, trillions of viewers rushed in to see the new skill, and each one felt as though they had turned to stone.

They stood stiff, unable to move at all.

"What the heck, what am I seeing?"

"My goodness, someone slap me! Am I dreaming?"

"He flew! Yi Chen actually flew into the air!"

"Heavens, I knew Yi Chen’s new skill would be extraordinary. But I never expected it to be this impressive."

"His new skill actually allows people to fly!"

"I, like the high priest and the guards, am already kneeling in front of the screen, worshipping."

It wasn’t until a few minutes later that someone finally reacted.

The entire galaxy erupted like a boiling pot, buzzing with excitement.

Anyone could guess that Yi Chen’s new skill must be incredible.

Because Yi Chen proved with facts that there was no skill he created that was not amazing.

Even when he last created the Heaven-Slashing Technique, everyone assumed he was limited by his perspective and had gone down the wrong path in creating skills.

Yi Chen easily killed a golden giant python with an iron sword to show everyone that it was humanity’s perspective that was too low, not his.

But no one expected that the new skill Yi Chen created would allow humans to overcome the limitations of their physical structure, just like the Cloud Treading Technique.

And even more astonishing,

the Cloud Treading Technique only allowed humans to reach supersonic speeds,

but this new skill directly enabled humans to fly in the sky.

Throughout history, flight has always been the ability that all humanity dreamed of possessing.

It was this intense desire that drove generations of geniuses to tirelessly innovate and improve, inventing various flying devices, hot air balloons, and even airplanes and space battleships.

Yet Yi Chen took it a step further; his new skill allowed humans to fly freely in the sky without relying on any instruments or equipment.

"Wow, I feel like I’m going to be out of work as a Flying Vehicle designer, but why am I still so excited?"

"There’s no need to feel – it’s definitely over for us. Flying vehicles, flying gear, even stocks in civilian airplanes and mechs are all starting to crash."

"After today, a whole bunch of related companies will announce bankruptcy. But on the other hand, other industries will skyrocket; everyone just wait for their salaries to increase."

"I really feel a bit sorry for those fake heavy criminals waiting for Yi Chen to come out."

"Right now, they probably have a thousand wild thoughts racing in their heads. After struggling for half a year, they finally got to see Yi Chen."

"They thought the opportunity had come to showcase themselves, but instead… Yi Chen just whooshed away!"

"Forget them; I just want to learn the new skill. I want to fly. I would trade a hundred years of life for Yi Chen to teach me the new skill as soon as possible."

"I would trade a hundred years without finding a girlfriend to learn the new skill quickly."

"If I really learn the new skill, I won’t need elevators anymore."

All of humanity descended into madness.

Just the thought of flying freely in the sky without any tools stirred an intensely irresistible desire deep within everyone’s hearts.

Yi Chen merely showcased the tip of the iceberg of his new skill, yet it had already plunged all humanity into a state of extreme shock and longing.
