Chapter 442: The Eighth New Skill Teaching Ends

One day later, the Map of Mountains and Rivers was delivered to the blood-colored planet.

The Political Council had been prepared for this, and with the Shadow Clan providing a vast number of personnel, they swiftly received more young children than the total population of the entire Great Flame Empire.

The Map of Mountains and Rivers and various materials for refining the third generation of “Cave Paradise” were sent into Yi Chen’s hands.

There were still several gaps to fill before successfully refining the third generation of “Cave Paradise.”

After thoroughly studying the information gathered by the Intelligence Organization regarding various tribes, Yi Chen decided to wait another six months.

After the eighth new skill teaching, he wanted to see how much progress the human federation had made.

By then, he would assess how many gaps remained and make a trip to the Undying Star Cluster to gather what he needed from the Undying Race.

A trip to the Undying Star Cluster would not only allow him to quickly collect materials for the third generation of “Cave Paradise,” but also let him test the extent of his strength and study the characteristics of the Undying Race to see if he could develop any targeted strategies.

The Undying Race posed the greatest threat to the Great Flame Empire in the Tianling Star Cluster.

Officially, the control of the Tianling Star Cluster remained in the hands of the Undying Race.

However, the internal conflicts between the Duke and the Undying King prevented the Undying Race from effectively managing the Tianling Star Cluster, leading to a weakening of their grip on it.

Yet, if a powerful race were to emerge in the Tianling Star Cluster, the Undying Race would certainly not stand by and watch.

Once the Great Flame Empire unified the entire Tianling Star Cluster, the Undying Star Cluster would become the main target for expansion.

Knowing oneself and one’s enemy ensures victory in every battle; understanding the strengths of the Undying Race would better position them to defeat them in the future.

If Yi Chen could create targeted skills based on the characteristics of the Undying Race, that would be even more perfect.

Just as Yi Chen had created the Teleportation Technique and Dull Technique specifically to counter the Swift Tribe, these two powerful techniques allowed human practitioners to easily overcome the Swift Tribe’s speed advantage.

Resolved, Yi Chen stopped overthinking.

He simultaneously extracted fate from the entire Tianling Star Cluster while focusing on his cultivation.

With humanity’s strongest talent and an over eight hundred times talent bonus, even though he had already broken through to the second level of Yuan Immortal, his training speed remained incredibly fast.

Two months later, Yi Chen broke through to the third level of Yuan Immortal, just a step away from the fourth level.

Meanwhile, the expeditionary army successfully completed a new round of integration.

With a command from Guli, the entire expeditionary army split into three and set off towards three large tribes.

The reason for splitting into three routes was that the expeditionary army now had three leaders who had reached level 120: Bone Spike Chief, Chief Karter, and Chief Lisi.

These three had previously been chiefs of large tribes, and their strength realm was already at the pinnacle of the blood-colored planet.

With top geniuses as their partners, defeating opponents of the same level would be very easy.

Thanks to the teleportation ability of the top geniuses, as long as they cooperated well, it was almost as if they all possessed the teleportation ability.

A sudden attack could yield astonishing results.

Moreover, the top geniuses had not only improved their realms but had also learned higher versions of the Teleportation Technique, greatly enhancing their abilities.

As for the newly learned Dull Technique, it turned out to be less useful.

Because their levels were too low, their Dull Technique had almost no effect when used against strong fighters at level 120 who were several major realms higher.

The greatest power and value of the Dull Technique lay in its ability to greatly weaken an opponent’s strength, allowing a human practitioner to defeat enemies of higher realms in future solo battles.

Each of the three armies had a level 120 strong fighter commanding them, meaning that each army could easily overwhelm any large tribe in terms of top-tier combat power.

Just this fact alone was enough to secure victory.

The eastern human army, consisting of eight hundred thousand warriors, had been divided, resulting in each army having less than three hundred thousand fighters.

However, they were still able to easily suppress any large tribe with their powerful long-range attack ability.

With the numerous strong fighters and top geniuses among them, each army maintained a crushing advantage when facing a large tribe.

As the three armies set out, their progress went as smoothly as expected.

In just about a month, they reached the vicinity of the three large tribes’ encampments.

Along the way, they encountered only a few minor blockades from smaller and medium-sized tribes, all of which were easily resolved.

The assaults on the three large tribes’ encampments were conducted effortlessly.

These three tribes had constructed defenses in advance to withstand fire laws and lightning laws, thinking they could resist the eastern human army’s long-range attacks.

But when the three armies actually launched their assaults, they realized their mistake.

The Method of All Laws that the eastern human army wielded encompassed not only fire laws and lightning laws but a wide array of spell attacks.

If given a few months, perhaps their defenses could have repelled the eastern human army’s long-range attacks.

After all, fire laws and lightning laws were the strongest spell attacks.

Other spell attacks were significantly weaker.

However, the strength of the human warriors increased quickly; in just a few months, their power levels rose considerably.

Their spell attacks also saw massive improvement.

With steady advancement and top geniuses bringing along a group of strong fighters utilizing their teleportation ability to suddenly breach the defensive formations, they tore through the enemies’ defense lines.

The three large tribes could only choose to take a risky gamble, with their tribe chiefs leading the strong fighters in a sudden attack against the eastern human army.

They hoped to break through the human army’s formation.

This was the only means to turn the tide.

But the result was the opposite; the coordination of the top geniuses and strong fighters picked them off one by one.

They had no choice but to surrender.

In less than two months, the three armies conquered the three large tribes and entered a phase of rest.

Yi Chen’s territory expanded dramatically from over eight hundred million square kilometers to twelve hundred million square kilometers.

His training speed received a significant boost.

Only three large tribes remained anxious in the blood-colored planet.

After two more months, the expeditionary army’s resting period was coming to an end, and preparations for a new campaign were underway.

However, all the human soldiers began to return to the Great Flame Empire’s encampment.

Because the top geniuses had successfully broken through to Spirit Enlightenment Stage One using the second generation of “Cave Paradise," Yi Chen timely informed everyone to return to the camp for the eighth new skill teaching.

The eighth new skill teaching was relatively simpler.

Regarding formations, since the top geniuses could learn them but the effectiveness was minimal, he chose not to pass on any.

Thus, there were no new skills taught this time.

Nevertheless, even the various improved skills took longer to teach than the seventh new skill teaching, totaling almost half a month.

Once the eighth new skill teaching concluded, the human warriors officially returned to the expeditionary army.

The final round of conquests to unify the blood-colored planet then began.

The expeditionary army still split into three and moved towards the remaining three large tribes.
