Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 472 - 289 Cultivation Methods_2

And it wasn’t just mutated animals; ordinary people were completely powerless against high-order mutated insects.

But he also understood that in the current situation, they needed to eliminate these mutated animals first. As for the losses incurred, that could only be considered later.

Liu Liming immediately signaled his secretary to issue a notice and call an emergency meeting.

At the same time, his gaze turned to the window, hoping that the elite forces stationed outside could return quickly to minimize the widespread destruction caused by the mutated animals.

However, as he watched, something felt off.

Because the mutated monkey was not attacking humans, not even damaging buildings; it was just walking along the highway towards the outskirts of the city.

"When did these mutated animals become so friendly?" Liu Liming was somewhat surprised.

But as he continued to observe, he quickly noticed more anomalies. Something seemed to be flying around the distant mutated monkey.

It was just too far to see clearly.

He immediately went to a drawer, took out a pair of binoculars, and looked again.

This time he saw clearly that there were mutated yellowjackets the size of small cars flying around the monkey.

"These are mutated yellowjackets."

A bold guess arose in Liu Liming’s mind, "Could it be Dragon Hall?"

If it were other mutated insects, it might be overlooked, but the appearance of mutated yellowjackets and mutated red fire ants—especially when they appeared en masse—warranted further thought.

Soon, he noticed that ten more mutated yellowjackets had flown into the distant sky.

Liu Liming immediately adjusted the binoculars, tracking the direction of the yellowjackets’ flight.

He then saw the ten mutated yellowjackets heading straight for another district where a Fifth Order mutated ram was located.

The mutated ram, which had just knocked down several buildings, became alert as soon as the swarm of mutated bees arrived. It even attempted to launch an attack, but after being stung by one of the mutated yellowjackets, it quickly became docile.

Then the giant ram, over 30 meters in length, obediently followed the ten mutated yellowjackets, heading out of the city.

Having watched the entire process, Liu Liming felt a surge of emotion.

By this time, he was certain that Dragon Hall was behind this.

It wasn’t just Liu Liming; many people had realized what was happening, and soon, cheers erupted from the city’s populace.

This time, Dragon Hall had undoubtedly gained a significant boost in reputation.

The ordinary citizens were simply overjoyed to have survived the ordeal.

However, the high-ranking officials of Tianhe City felt gravity along with their relief.

As more and more intelligence was gathered, they too had figured out the ranks of these teleported mutated beings.

"All the mutated creatures that were teleported here are generally above Fourth Order. Such an escalation in strength is just too outrageous," Liu Liming said, rubbing his forehead as he examined the intelligence report.

This would have been unimaginable before the Ancient Ruins event began.

Before, not to mention Fourth Order mutated creatures, even the appearance of a Third Order creature could make it to the dangerous rankings of major cities.

As for those Fourth Order beings, they were even more closely monitored.

But now, Fourth Order creatures were commonplace, and there were also numerous Mutated Beings of Fifth and Sixth Order.

It’s known that mutated creatures above Fourth Order could basically ignore conventional firearms, and even heavy machine guns could hardly cause them significant harm.

As for mutated creatures of the Fifth and Sixth Orders, they were even more outrageous; ordinary small missiles could hardly kill them.

One can imagine that in the coming period, these top-strength mutated creatures will bring great troubles to human society.

The only consolation was that they too had sent a large force in this time and had reaped significant gains. However, converting these gains into strength would take some time.

And ultimately, it would only be a handful of people who were trained.

All things considered, they could at best claim they had not fallen behind.

Liu Liming set aside the report and picked up another one from the adjacent desk. frёeωebɳovel.com

It was the intelligence report on Dragon Hall.

"Out came a whopping twenty thousand mutated insects with the strength of Sixth Order."

"Moreover, according to the reports from those elite members who were teleported out, all creatures in the Dragon Hall have reached the Sixth Order. How did they manage to do that?" There was a trace of worry in Liu Liming’s eyes.

One can easily imagine what a massive force it will be when the Dragon Hall emerges.

The reason the two sides had been able to cooperate well before was that the gap in their overall strength was not significant.

But now...

"Forget it, this is not something I should be worried about," muttered Liu Liming.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Liu Zaoxin, within the military camp, fell into a long silence after hearing Zhang Ji’s report.

And when he came to his senses, he immediately picked up the communicator and reported the situation to his superiors.

How to deal with the Dragon Hall from now on was no longer something he could decide.

...

Ye Feng, of course, was unaware of the various commotions happening outside.

At this moment, he had already climbed up to the 10,000-meter mark of Rule Mountain, where there was a platform.

This platform seemed to be constructed by hollowing out the inside of Rule Mountain, and it was immense.

With just a glance, Ye Feng saw that there were at least 70 strong beings here, either prohibitively strong or outsiders from beyond the heavens.

Instantly, Ye Feng’s mind tensed up.

If so many strong beings swarmed up, even if they did not unleash the power of the Seventh Order, just using a secret technique alone would undoubtedly result in extremely terrifying lethality.

But at that moment, a piece of information entered his mind.

"This is a safe zone, fighting is forbidden."

"Anyone who violates this will be directly expelled from the Land of Inheritance and will be subject to severe punishment."

When Ye Feng received this message, the tight strings of his heart relaxed immediately.

"So this is the safe zone, no wonder some people dare to cultivate without any defenses," Ye Feng’s gaze shifted towards those strong beings who were meditating.

Moreover, what surprised him was that there were not a few of these people; there were more than 20 in total.

The others, even if they were not cultivating, were furrowing their brows deep in thought, as if they were facing some difficult decision. They all ignored Ye Feng, who had just arrived.

Everything happening before him seemed quite strange to Ye Feng, but after a cursory glance around, his attention was quickly captured by the huge stone slab in the center of the platform.

Because the stone slab was suffused with a luminous glow, appearing extraordinarily uncommon.

Ye Feng immediately moved towards it and placed a tree root on top of it.

Immediately, rows of information appeared on the stone slab, all of which were translated into text he could understand.

Scoring exchange list!

Examinee: Ye Feng

Authority: First-class Seed

Score Amount: Reaching the first layer platform, reward 10 points. With First-class Seed Authority, additional reward of 300 points, totaling 310 points.

Seeing the information that emerged, Ye Feng’s expression slightly froze, especially regarding the First-class Seed Authority, which he had no idea when he had obtained.

But obviously, this was an incredibly good thing.

Others probably only had about 10 points, but he already had 310, leading by more than a slight margin.

His gaze continued downward, and when he clearly saw the content on the exchange list, his breathing became rapid.

The first thing he saw were the cultivation methods.

Xuanfire Cultivation Method (Intermediate): Suitable for those with an affinity for the Fire Element. It can increase cultivation speed by 50% and allow the transformation of Spiritual Energy into Xuanfire, increasing attack power by over 80%.

Price: 20 points

Icy Nine Transformations Method (Advanced): Suitable for those with an affinity for the ice attribute. It can double cultivation speed, and each attack carries the power of nine turns of icy cold. Hitting an opponent can halve the speed of a same-order adversary and let the cold invade the body. Continuous hits 9 times can directly detonate the cold, causing massive damage.

Price: 40 points

Looking at the cultivation methods, Ye Feng felt overwhelmed with choice.
