Chen Sheng's Power

"Beastfolk Civilization? One of the great civilizations? And it's divided into Beast-Transformation Civilization, Beast-Fusion Civilization, Myriad Beasts Civilization, and so on? Could you explain?"

Even in his shock, Jian Shang asked with genuine curiosity.

No matter how powerful or far-reaching Jian Shang's forces were in Forging the Sacred Court, he could not learn the secrets of other regions before the national borders opened. He could only rely on hearsay. It was a vast limitation he could not overcome, and one of the differences between ordinary Otherworlders and Apex Otherworlders.

"When the state has lost the Dao and Great Qin grows brutal, heaven and earth stand on the brink of collapse.

"I... Chen Sheng rose in answer to destiny and followed heaven's will. Yet treachery holds sway, and hearts are not what they once were...

"Now the Great Qin Empire comes with all its might, while the Xiang Clan, the Liu Clan, and Peng Yue have forgotten our alliance, betrayed their word, cast aside honor, and willingly become Great Qin's talons. They bring an unrighteous army against us...

"I, Chen Sheng, call upon the sons and daughters of the realm to rise with raised poles, don armor and take up arms, and face this great enemy beside me... Let those willing answer heaven and earth in their hearts and pray for heaven's blessing... Down with the Dao-less! Destroy brutal Qin!"

The Heavenly Chief Star Lord was about to explain when a vast, commanding voice descended from the sky and echoed between heaven and earth, again and again...

The voice seemed to speak on heaven's behalf, as though heaven and earth themselves had uttered it. Along with a dazing pressure, it rang directly in everyone's hearts.
