One Ran Off, and Another Came Along

"A greenhouse seedling can never reach the Eighth Sequence, nor can an old mansion produce someone in the Eighth Sequence!"

There is a high demand for Changkong Luo.

He needs to prolong his life; he needs to advance his Mental Strengthening Chapter.

He needs the academic atmosphere of a retirement home.

He finds it hard to part with his retirement home, and also hard to part with the conveniences and technology of modern society.

But the Eighth Sequence and the Qin Meng Secret Stone offered even greater temptations.

Changkong Luo pondered for a long time whether to choose the former or the latter.

After a five-day, five-night journey to drive away the ferocious beasts, Changkong Luo was just beginning to relax when he returned to the heavy truck camp and suddenly snapped back to reality.

Without sustained and persistent perseverance, he would have no chance of succeeding in pioneering the Eighth Sequence, which lacked established rules.

This led him to speak out belatedly, and he also made a decision to announce it publicly.

"Lao Luo, are you telling the truth?"

"Are you truly after the Eighth Sequence, or do you want the Qin Meng Secret Stone from the Serpent Cave?"

"This matter can't be rushed. Let's make some adjustments after we return to Western Capital City. Who knows, we might be able to produce one or two more Seventh Sequence individuals. Then we can regroup and come back!"

"Changkong Luo, aren't you being too impatient?"

"Your idea might not be correct, there's no need to go through with this!"

"You're not young anymore. If your lifespan comes to an end, I'm afraid you'll die here with Qin Meng!"

"We're old enough; there's no need for us to go through all this trouble. This kind of place isn't suitable for human survival!"

The decision to load the ferocious beast into the Changkong Luo truck shocked everyone, prompting them to speak in disbelief.

The skeptics spoke first, followed by the rationalists, and then the persuaders. Everyone took turns speaking, clearly finding it difficult to agree with Changkong Luo's idea of returning to Qin Meng.

"If you still remember me, please send me some new technology to Huli Port if you can," Changkong Luo said to Changkong Kongyinghao and the others. "I am also somewhat interested in the additional uses of the X432 medical device, and I have high hopes for the X864 secret medicine!"

"Father, are you really determined to do this?" Changkong Kong Yinghao asked in a deep voice.

"You don't need to worry that I'll go to the Serpent Cave to retrieve the Qin Meng Secret Stone right now. I can't carry such a heavy object, nor do I have the ability to fight the Serpent King. Besides, there are even more ferocious tiger-shaped beasts in that area," Changkong Luo said. "The reason I left the Twilight Mansion is very simple: I will follow Zhou Xin down the path of Qimeng Haig. If one day I push the sequence again and gain incredible power, then I will definitely go to the Serpent Cave to see if I can imitate Badun!"

Changkong Luo's statement not only answered everyone's questions but also indicated his direction.

"If you ever come to your senses, you can come to Qinmeng to find me anytime," Changkong Luo said. "There are certainly other environments suitable for honing your skills, but no place is better than Qinmeng!"

"Father, is there still hope for Yinghao and me to break through to the Seventh Sequence?" Changkong Yinglian asked softly. "If I can step into the Seventh Sequence, I am willing to come to Qinmeng to follow your path!"

"Seventh Sequence... This is most likely a physical problem; my guidance is of no use," Changkong Luo, shaking his head.

"I want to try my luck," Changkong Kong Yinglian said through gritted teeth in a low voice.

"It's all down to luck!"

Changkong Luo whispered.

The First Sequence to Third Sequence are about accumulating blood serum resources, while the fourth to Sixth Sequence are about accumulating individual strength and exploring one's own body. Stepping into the Seventh Sequence, apart from the adaptable beast extracts, everything else is related to the journey from the First Sequence to the Sixth Sequence.

If the appropriate beast extract cannot be used, then the path of sequence has gone astray, unknowingly affecting the body and making it difficult to develop a resistance layer.

This was something Changkong Luo had taught Changkong Kong Yinglian time and time again. He didn't know how to adjust his two children, and in the end, he only left behind the words, "Try your luck."

The heavy truck had traveled more than 200 miles, and the journey was already extremely safe. Changkong Luo jumped out of the truck and stopped escorting everyone to Huli Port for their return voyage.

He waved to the crowd, then disappeared into the forest.

"They actually ran away halfway there! That Changkong really has some guts!"

Chimmon Hagrid whispered.

Chimmon Hagrid was somewhat slow to realize why he had entered the Eighth Sequence.

Aside from opportunity, this does require him to have a sufficient sequence foundation.

Changkong Luo did not pursue the opportunity to enter the Eighth Sequence, but Changkong Luo is currently pushing forward the relevant sequence foundations, seeking conditions as close as possible to Qimeng Haige.

In the absence of sufficiently written standards and methods, replicating the actions of successful individuals is clearly the easiest way to approach one's goal.

"In control!"

Chimmon Hagrid whispered.

The Eighth Sequence ability is control.

If the resistance layer provides the confidence to withstand risks, this control further isolates risks and brings even stronger strength.

Everyone can read the word "control," but few truly understand what real control means.

It's like having supreme power and countless riches; the feeling is ethereal, yet it can have a real impact.

Although they are all human beings, those who possess power and money can accomplish more, and they also have completely different temperaments, appearances, lifespans, and so on compared to ordinary people.

Controlling the Eighth Sequence is a concept that is known but intangible.

This was also Chimon Haig's previous understanding.

Only after witnessing Zhang Xuezhou use the Divine Grace of Thur to heal did Chimon Hagrid's ideas gradually become more concrete.

He never imagined he would need to learn from a Third Sequence individual, but this was the reality unfolding before him. He needed to observe, ponder, and summarize over a long period to form his own philosophy and even enhance his control over his abilities.

"Professor Ren, I've heard that you're currently wielding considerable influence in the Scarlet Alliance State. Could you perhaps grant me a visit?"

Chimon Haig didn't approach Zhang Xuezhou; instead, he focused on dealing with Ren Yisheng.

"I now worship the god Thur and very much want to follow the chosen ones appointed by Thur," said Chimon Haig.

"Oh?"

"Don't think I'm after Little Zhang," Chimon Haig waved his hands repeatedly, "I won't follow Little Zhang, I'll just follow your daughter. I'll abide by your Alliance States's rules, and I can even temporarily reside in that old mansion in Changkong Luo, accepting all of your Alliance States's regulations for the elderly!"

"Oh!"

Ren Yisheng's tone shifted from questioning to agreeing.

Although he knew Chimmon Hagrid had ulterior motives, Ren Yisheng did not stop him, nor did he try to persuade Chimmon Hagrid to go to the Thousand Islands Alliance to search for the homeland of the gods.

The opponent is a true Eighth Sequence individual, and once fully recovered, he will possess combat power second only to Badun, as well as extremely high mental defense capabilities.

Changkong Luo, but Chimmon Hagrid arrived.

He welcomed Chimmon Hagrid's presence in the Scarlet Alliance State and even hoped to use Chimmon Hagrid's power to target Zodiac.

Given this strong demand, he would have no choice but to persuade Li Yingbo to give the green light directly in terms of relevant measures.
