The Ruins and Lin Yaodong's Prestige
However, you can only bully Hong for now. Once Hong comprehends the domain, you probably won't be his match.
Once the domain is unleashed, it becomes invincible among those of the same level.
Once Hong comprehends the domain, not only will Lin Yaodong be a formidable opponent, but even Chen Mo himself will find it quite difficult to deal with.
Chen Mo's combat power actually decreased after arriving in the Devouring World. Although his spatial affinity remained unchanged, the spatial stability of the Devouring World far surpassed that of the Douluo World. Although he could still use his spatial abilities with difficulty, the consumption of True Essence was extremely high.

Meanwhile, Hong was at the entrance of some ruins.
Hong had gone through a great deal of trouble to find this site, and only after overcoming numerous obstacles did he manage to break through its protective barrier.
Just as they were about to enter the ruins, the protective shield was broken, and the ruins suddenly emitted a dazzling light into the sky, which lasted for several minutes.
Seeing this, Hong could only curse under his breath before quickly entering the ruins. He needed to seize as many benefits as possible before the major powers arrived.
Soon, the nearby garrison forwarded the intelligence to its superiors, and after being reported through the ranks, it reached Lin Yaodong of the War God Temple.
Because it involves Hong, a martial artist Beyond Wargod, only Lin Yaodong can suppress him, the Military hopes that Lin Yaodong will lead the team. This way, even if a conflict occurs between the two sides, with Lin Yaodong there, they will not suffer losses.
Lin Yaodong thought about it and didn't refuse. Humanity's ability to withstand the onslaught of monsters is not only due to martial artists, but also to the Ancient Civilization Ruins.
Laser cannons, protective shields, and human combat suits are basically all derived from those ruins. They are created by scientists and technicians through imitation and research of finished products or discarded instruments from those ruins.
Lin Yaodong was about to get up and leave when he thought for a moment and told Chen Mo about it.
Because Chen Mo had asked him for the coordinates of many historical sites, Lin Yaodong believed that Chen Mo would be interested in them.
Indeed, after learning that he couldn't obtain Hu Yanbo's inheritance, Chen Mo turned his attention to the ruins on Earth.
However, Chen Mo was also aware that some ruins were particularly dangerous, and Chen Mo was not yet qualified to dabble in them. Therefore Chen Mo would not recklessly venture into ruins, which was why he obtained some information from Lin Yaodong beforehand.
After receiving the information from Lin Yaodong, Chen Mo immediately ended his current exploration of the ruins.
If Chen Mo remembers correctly, Hong's artificial intelligence was obtained from some kind of ruin, so could it be this ruin?
So Chen Mo immediately sent a message to Lin Yaodong, saying that Chen Mo wanted to go with Lin Yaodong.
Lin Yaodong didn't have to wait long before Chen Mo walked out from the space beside him.
Looking at the unfamiliar face before him, Lin Yaodong couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what's this?"
Chen Mo explained calmly, "I don't want too many people to know I exist."
Lin Yaodong nodded and said nothing more. He then ordered someone to prepare a plane to travel to the newly discovered ruins.
This ruin is located on an uninhabited island in the Pacific Ocean. After it emitted light, satellites in the sky or detectors obtained from the ruin by major countries detected the ruin.
Therefore, it's not just Lin Yaodong's China will be going there; other major powers also want a piece of the pie, along with other forces and powerful martial artists.
In the past, the Military usually took the lion's share of the benefits from China, leaving the rest with only scraps. However, this time is a little different.
On the plane representing the China, besides Chen Mo and Lin Yaodong, there were more than fifty War God Level experts from the War God Temple. Half of them were from the Military, and the rest were civilians and Lin Yaodong's confidants.
As is usually the case when ruins are discovered, about three-quarters of the Wargod come from the Military, and the distribution of benefits is basically based on the proportion of Wargod, with the Military getting the lion's share and the others getting the scraps.
Many people sensed something unusual about this archaeological expedition. It was the first time that the ratio of Military to non- Military Wargod was one to one; usually, it was between three to one and four to one.
Why was the proportion of non- Military Wargod suddenly increased?
Many people were curious about this trip to the ruins, but unfortunately Lin Yaodong didn't want to talk about it, and they didn't dare to say anything.
Every single one of them owed their entry into the God of Wargod to Lin Yaodong. Within the War God Temple, Lin Yaodong was a god-like figure.
Whenever it came to the distribution of profits from the War God Temple, Guo Jia would always send Lin Yaodong a list of dispatched personnel. Lin Yaodong didn't care much about these things and usually just said one word, "Okay."
This time, because Chen Mo might want some things from the ruins, Lin Yaodong sent the list back for the first time and drew up his own list. The Military did not make any changes to this list; whoever Lin Yaodong wanted could go.
Lin Yaodong's prestige within the Military is currently extremely high, especially in the martial arts circle. Even the top Military's words carry less weight than his. However, Lin Yaodong has never had any interest in power.
This is why the Military and the government have always trusted Lin Yaodong.
The two have been in a honeymoon phase.
It's unclear why Lin Yaodong made this change, but Guo Jia and the Military's strategic team have held countless meetings and conducted numerous Simulation, causing many to worry themselves sick.
The Military must maintain a close relationship with Lin Yaodong; this is a consensus among all high-ranking officials. They are well aware that once Lin Yaodong is gone, no one can control the group of Wargod in the War God Temple. Even the Military's Wargod cannot be completely controlled by them. It is conceivable how much damage it will cause to Guo Jia once the Yue Guan between Lin Yaodong and Guo Jia ends.
Although it is unknown what Lin Yaodong is planning, the Military and the Guo Jia high command have already issued an order that all the spoils from this relic will be distributed by Lin Yaodong. Whatever Lin Yaodong takes a fancy to in the relic is his, and he won't even need to Lin Yaodong a finger. The Military's Wargod will take it from him even if he has to.

When Lin Yaodong arrived with the China delegation, many people had already arrived. The America, one of the Five Great Nations, was the first to arrive, followed by the China led by Lin Yaodong. Not long after, the United Russia arrived, and then the European Community and India also gathered together. In addition, some national powers, forces, and War God Level experts also arrived.
After arriving at the site, Lin Yaodong entrusted the defense and communication matters to several Military Wargod, while he, along with Chen Mo and most of the Wargod, headed directly into the ruins.
Exploring ruins isn't something we've done before; everyone's quite familiar with the task, with clear division of labor. Each person and each faction knows exactly what they should and shouldn't do.
