Chapter 1713: Banquet
In reality, Lancelot, Witch, Bloody and the rest were only lower-rank Lords.
However, unlike the other lower-rank Lords in the universe, each of their Dao seals had been consolidated with over two million levels of Dao tattoo power.
In this great world, even the prodigy Buried Heaven could only use over 1,800 levels of Dao tattoo power from each of his Dao seals.
Without using the Dao tattoo power within the Kingdom, the ability of a Dao seal consolidated by Lancelot and the rest would be comparable to when Buried Heaven elevated to middle-rank Lord.
Not to mention the imperial monsters who had entered the virtual realm a few times and obtained substantial amounts of Origin Energy, and had basically consolidated two to three Dao seals. The number of levels of Dao tattoo power in the Kingdom had increased significantly.
Their ability could not be compared to the time when they had just been elevated to Lords.
Meanwhile, due to the limited resources in the great world, a middle-rank Lord would basically head to the universe when they obtained more than 20 Dao seals.
Take Shen Tu from God Capital for example. Although he was a middle-rank Lord, he had only consolidated 14 Dao seals. His ability should be roughly the same as the time when Lancelot and the rest had just been elevated to Lords.
Zhan Guang from the Combat God Temple was perhaps the most powerful powerhouse here, excluding the people from the Sword Alliance. Yet he had only consolidated 17 Dao seals. His ability was far weaker than the imperial monsters’ under Lin Huang.
As Bloody’s aura was only targeted at the three people from God Capital, she did not expose herself at all.
This caused the many people present to be confused as to why Shen Tu had suddenly become so amiable.
He was secretly cursing inside.
‘The Sword Alliance might just be a branch that Royal set up. Forget it, there’s a middle-rank Lord guarding them. Why does the Nephilic Judge Tribe, a dying organization, have such a terrifying guy hiding amongst them?!”
He did not think that the “middle-rank Lord ” who had just released her aura from the Nephilic Judge Tribe’s side came from the universe. He thought that the probability of the person being a veteran survivor from the ancient era was higher.
After all, the Nephilic Judge Tribe had existed for far too long. There were many among them who had been elevated to Lords in the previous eras. It was entirely possible that there were one or two of them who had survived until now, and had chosen to guard the tribe instead of heading out into the universe.
He could not help but peep at Kylie. He had a faint feeling that the veteran from the Nephilic Judge Tribe came because of this Virgen.
He did not notice that Shen Lu, who was sitting next to him, had almost fainted from Bloody’s suppressive aura just now.
He had been severely injured by Lancelot and had had all of the Divine Power and Odyl in his body drained.
He had just sat down to consolidate some Divine Power and Odyl to heal his wounds. The pressure exerted by Bloody almost exhausted all of the Divine Power and Odyl that he had just accumulated.
Shen Jue, who was on the other side, was worried that the person who controlled his body would do it again. He sat motionless where he was obediently. He ignored whatever that was happening around him.
Many people noticed the odd reactions from the three people from God Capital.
However, everyone could not figure out the reasons behind their odd behavior. They only thought that the three had suffered a blow from Lancelot’s actions earlier.
After the little drama between God Capital and the Nephilic Judge Tribe concluded, the banquet soon went on successfully.
Without God Capital stirring up trouble, the rest of the organizations dared not cause a ruckus in the territory of the Sword Alliance.
After all of the organizations entered, the media arrived as well.
The lowest grade of organization that joined this banquet was grade-5, and they ranked amongst the top grade-5 organizations.
All of the grade-7 organizations in the God Territory were here.
The scale and degree of luxury clearly exceeded Death Sickle’s upgrade celebration ceremony significantly.
Lin Huang merely gave a short speech to start the banquet.
The members of the media finally caught sight of how the Sword Alliance’s chief looked like.
Many of them were shocked as they recognized Lin Huang as the mysterious powerhouse that had been wanted by all the top organizations previously.
However, most of the media personnel present knew that the wanted order had been rescinded quietly earlier.
They guessed that it had something to do with the rise of the Sword Alliance.
After Lin Huang gave his speech, he got Sword 1 to take over the proceedings.
Although Sword 1 was not a Lord, he was the Sword Alliance’s vice chief after all. Everyone did not dare to disrespect him.
Given that he was very experienced in handling such occasions, he quickly took control of the entire celebration.
He began to talk about future collaborations with some organizations.
“You’re making everyone envious by being a boss who does nothing.” Buried Heaven, who appeared in a form of muscular hunk, walked over to Lin Huang with a glass of wine in his hand.
“Aren’t you one as well?” Lin Huang clinked his glass with his.
“I’m not like you. You pushed your responsibility away.” Buried Heaven shook his head while smiling. “I never had the right to decide anything from the beginning.”
“Why? Are you not happy at Death Sickle? Do you want to join me?” Lin Huang raised his eyebrows and tried to poach him directly.
“It’s not that I’m unhappy. Such problems exist in partnerships. When the upper echelons try to take charge, the people below them will have to pick sides.” Buried Heaven shook his head.
“Fortunately, I wasn’t a part of your upper echelons. I didn’t notice such a problem,” Lin Huang teased with a smile.
“In reality, the problem existed even while you were around, just that it wasn’t as serious as it is now.” Buried Heaven felt rather helpless. “Since Old Sun and the few others died, vacancies have become available in Blood Sickle, disrupting the balance as the different camps fight for authority. Given that I was elevated to Lord and Death Sickle was automatically upgraded to grade-7, the accumulation of these few matters caused all sorts of problems to surface.”
“You walked too fast and stubbed your toe.” Lin Huang suddenly thought of a classic saying.
“What?!” Buried Heaven was stunned. He then understood what Lin Huang meant. “That makes sense, but it’s just so…”
“I just suddenly recalled that saying,” Lin Huang laughed out loud.
“Do you have any solutions?” Buried Heaven asked the question anyway after a moment of hesitation.
“It can be resolved easily if you’re willing to take charge.” Lin Huang smiled as he looked at Buried Heaven.
However, Buried Heaven shook his head. “I won’t stay in this great world for long. Moreover, I don’t like having my cultivation held up by trivial matters.”
“If you don’t take over, the split between the few Blood Sickle members can’t be eradicated.” Lin Huang pointed out the main problem. “After all, their ability and talent levels are similar. Nobody is willing to let the other become their boss.”
Buried Heaven fell into silence.
“I think you can take over things in a domineering manner. Solve the big problem first to stabilize Death Sickle’s situation. After that, train a suitable successor from among the Heavenly Gods you already have. When the successor has been elevated to Lord, you can leave everything behind.” Lin Huang said those words as if everything was that simple.
“Do you think training someone to become a Lord is as easy as cultivating a cactus?” Buried Heaven felt rather speechless.
“I’m just giving you an idea,” Lin Huang said, as he smiled lightly.
He had just realized that training a Lord was actually a difficult thing. Otherwise, there would not only be seven grade-7 organizations in the God Territory, including the Sword Alliance.
Buried Heaven only left after chatting for a while.
Lin Huang glanced through the crowd and soon saw Kylie and Bloody, who were standing not far away…
