Ye Zhongming led everyone outside, and the Torch Chamber guards saw that the clan leader was safe and sound, albeit deep in thought, and all of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though they knew that these outsiders shouldn’t hold any ill intentions towards the clan leader, who could say for certain about the world of the posthumous child? After all, the leader's safety was crucial for the survival of the entire tribe, and they had to care about that.
"Zhongming, what did you discuss with that clan leader?"
The four people following Ye Zhongming, Zhao Xingmei and Guangyao, were hesitant to ask directly due to their status, while Xia Bai was indifferent and would just follow whatever Ye Zhongming instructed her to do. The most suitable person to ask this question was Liang Chuyin.
Ye Zhongming thought for a moment and felt it was time to clarify things for them, so he simply gathered Ayang, Xiao Min, the twin sisters, and the core members of the Ying City Alliance along with Guangyao's trusted subordinates.
"This place is very dangerous, and I believe you have already experienced this deeply, but it is also a treasure trove, filled with many enticing things, magic crystals… are just the most inconspicuous part of it."
Ye Zhongming opened with this statement, expressing some of his thoughts about the secret realm.
When Ye Zhongming rapidly developed along with Cloud Summit, the contribution of the magic crystals obtained from the secret realm was immense. He had always regarded this place as a source for magic crystals.
However, ever since he 'soul-traveled' here, especially after upgrading the exclusion technique to the highest level at the Gate of Blessing, he realized that his understanding of Blue had been too superficial in the past. There were things here that held far more value than magic crystals.
"The last time I came here, I subdued a few tribes."
This statement caused expressions of surprise to emerge on the faces of Zhao Xingmei, Guangyao, and the others.
In the apocalypse, due to the uniqueness of the roulette, when evolvers became powerful, the fundamental reasons were still their innate talents and efforts, but luck, that elusive thing, could also play a huge role, sometimes even being a crucial factor.
So when faced with stronger evolvers, everyone would feel fear but not necessarily respect, because the difference between them might just be a moment of luck; perhaps one person landed on the Evolution Potion while another did not, and the gap between them would widen instantly.
Whether it was Zhao Xingmei, Guangyao, or the core members of Ying City and the captain of the heavenly phenomenon war department, they were all elites, and even in peacetime, their statuses were beyond what Ye Zhongming could reach.
Although Ye Zhongming had already distanced himself from them, making it difficult for them to catch up, sometimes deep down they would feel that Ye Zhongming's strength compared to theirs ultimately came down to luck.
But upon hearing this statement, everyone understood something.
While you were on Earth, in the China region, fighting zombies and collecting magic crystals, he was already in alternate space, establishing his own power!
That gap… was a bit large.
At the same time, they realized that Ye Zhongming's strength was indeed genuine. Luck might still be an important factor, but the same luck in their hands would not reach the level Ye Zhongming was at now.
At that moment, many people truly began to admire Ye Zhongming.
"The tribes I subdued, including the Torch Chamber tribe we encountered today, are all posthumous children and one of the two major human forces in the secret realm. They live in hardship but are very strong."
"However, because I've offended the highest ruling body of the posthumous children, which is their Royal City, the tribes I've subdued are now facing an attack from an army of the Royal City. Since the transmission position of the Key of the Secret Realm is not fixed, I was a bit lost before, but fortunately, I have now confirmed the position. Next, we need to rush there to help the tribes I've subdued and repel the army from the Royal City."
