Chapter 256: 173. All members besiege the Divine Plant Cult

Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed.
5 PM.
The weapon room.
Everyone had just finished practicing and were resting in twos or threes against the wall or seated on the floor.
Lin Zichen was seated alone near the window, silently cultivating the Blood Tempering Technique.
A few minutes later.
He slowly opened his eyes and let out a deep breath of murky air.
Then, with a thought, he pulled up his Body Refining progression bar to check his progress.
[Four-time Tempering Skin: 100%]
[Four-time Tempering Flesh: 26%]
[Four-time Bone Tempering: 0%]
In just over ten days, his Body Refining progress had gone from 12% at Four-time Tempering Skin to over a quarter completed in Four-time Tempering Flesh.
The efficiency of his Body Refining was extremely high.
Even higher than his previous three-time Body Refining.
And it was all thanks to the boost from the Advanced Rejuvenation Pill.
One could only say that having resources really made a difference.
Now, with over half a month left before school starts.
With a bit of diligence, he felt he had a chance of reaching Four-time Body Refinement Great Accomplishment before school began.
Then, he would strive for Fifth-stage Body Refinement Completion before his second year.
Actually, not just strive for it, but go step by step according to plan.
Given the current efficiency of his Body Refining, it was almost a certainty he would complete Fifth-stage Body Refinement before his second year.
Thinking of this, Lin Zichen couldn’t help but smile.
“Xiao Chen, you’ve sweated a lot. Have some water to replenish your fluids,” Shen Qinghan said as she came over with a bottle of sports drink, unscrewed the cap, and offered it to him.
“Yeah, sure.”
Lin Zichen took the drink and started gulping it down.
Shen Qinghan pulled out a paper towel and kindly wiped the sweat off his face.
Looking at this public display of affection, the nearby boys were filled with envy, wishing they too had such a considerate girlfriend.
Well, considerate was just one part; they wished she could be as beautiful as Shen Qinghan, too.
“Everyone, come over here. I’ll give you a brief introduction to the Origin Land, as well as the details of tomorrow’s outdoor special training session,” Lu Tianrong shouted from the Martial Stage to the crowd.
Lin Zichen’s eyes lit up at this.
After so many days in the military area, the moment he had been most looking forward to had finally arrived.
He quickly stood up and headed towards the Martial Stage with Shen Qinghan.
In just a short while, one side of the Martial Stage was full of people.
The crowd stood somewhat chaotically below the Martial Stage, waiting for Lu Tianrong to explain about the Origin Land.
Seeing that everyone had gathered, Lu Tianrong didn’t waste any time.
He immediately took out his phone, turned on the large screen above the Martial Stage.
With a few taps on his phone screen, the large screen above the Martial Stage displayed a video.
It was an educational video about the Origin Land.
Lin Zichen raised an eyebrow.
He had thought it would be a verbal explanation by the instructor, but it was actually a video.
A bit more professional than he had expected.
He glanced at the progress bar; it was less than five minutes long.
No wonder it was described as a simple introduction.
Soon.
The educational video began to play.
Lin Zichen watched attentively, not missing a single frame.
The video was divided into four parts.
[The first part, what is the Origin Land?]
The environment of the Origin Land is similar to Earth.
There are animals, plants, mountains, seas, the sun, and the moon.
The difference is that the resources in the Origin Land are much more abundant than those on Earth.
There are a large number of highly evolutionarily valuable natural treasures.
These can foster life forms of a higher level.
As a result, the animals and plants in the Origin Land are much larger in size and slightly odd in appearance, looking like the fantasy creatures in movies.
Also, the sun and moon in the Origin Land look different from those on Earth.
This is mainly evident in their color.
The sun and moon in the Origin Land are redder, which looks rather eerie.
The mainstream view is that the abundance of resources in the Origin Land is probably related to its sun and moon.
After watching the first part, Lin Zichen had a preliminary understanding of the Origin Land.
Simply put, the Origin Land is an extreme version of Earth.
The resources there are richer, and the life forms are more powerful.
[The second part, is the Origin Land a blessing or a curse for humanity?]
As of now, the Origin Land is more of a “curse” than a “blessing” for humanity.
And by far.
The curse lies in the fact that the intelligent life in the Origin Land is constantly trying to invade Earth to conduct a dimensional strike against it.
The so-called intelligent life in the Origin Land mostly consists of various humanoid Exotic Beasts—often referred to as beast-men.
The beast-men invade by using the root systems of certain special space-type plants to create pathways connecting the two worlds.
They then pass through these pathways to enter Earth and carry out their one-sided invasion.
So far, there are 44 known inter-world pathways on Earth.
Jiuzhou Country, where Shanhai City is located, accounts for 9 of these, scattered across provinces like Capital City, Nanjiang, Dajiang, and Gaohe.
Having discussed the curse, let’s move on to the blessing.
The blessing is simple: humanity can use the inter-world pathways to enter the Origin Land and obtain richer evolutionary resources to evolve into higher level organisms.
[The third part, what is the current state of humanity?]
Unfortunately, humanity’s current state is not optimistic.
Described in four words: internal strife and external threats.
We face the treachery of traitorous humans within and invasions from Origin Land beings from without, creating a dire situation.
The reason for this predicament is mainly the vast disparity in strength between humans and beings from the Origin Land, which is almost one-sided.
The fact that humans have been able to survive until now is largely thanks to the protection of the protective mechanism.
Under its suppression, beings from the Origin Land that come to Earth have their strength greatly reduced.
The stronger the being is, the more it reduces.
In contrast, when humans enter the Origin Land, the suppression they experience is minimal.
Moreover, the stronger the person is, the less suppression they feel.
