Xiao Yun did not know what effect absorbing more Reality Crystals would have. When he asked Pan Ling, she did not know either. Clearly, this was a secret known only to Eternal powerhouses.
As he continued speaking with Pan Ling, Xiao Yun gained a general understanding of the Eternal Nation.
This Eternal Nation had been founded jointly by several powerful Eternal powerhouses. The Eternals born afterward had all joined it as well, for they all faced a threat from the endless darkness—the True Beasts.
The Eternal Great Wall had been forged by the Eternal powerhouses to resist the True Beasts' invasions.
But in truth, the threat posed by these True Beasts was not that great, at least not to the Eternal Nation.
Because thus far, invasions by True Beast Kings had been exceedingly rare, nowhere near enough to threaten the Eternal Nation.
However, some Eternal powerhouses had said that in the depths of the endless darkness, there were True Beasts even stronger than True Beast Kings. But so long as no one ventured deep into the endless darkness, those even more powerful True Beasts would not come to invade the Eternal Nation.
As she said this, Pan Ling's expression turned somewhat strange. Looking at Xiao Yun's back before her, she suddenly said in a low voice, "This junior once heard the City Lord say something. He said that perhaps it is not us resisting the True Beasts' invasion, but the True Beasts resisting our invasion."
After saying that, even Pan Ling was a little confused, because she did not understand what it meant either.
Ever since she had come into being, she had known of the Eternal Great Wall. She had watched predecessor after predecessor resist the True Beasts, and even the City Lord had to stand guard here.
