2353 Aiding the Azure Federation!
But both humans and the lifeforms from the water world were made of flesh.
Once the lifeforms from the water world were killed, the lifeforms’ corpses would rot in the sea.
The decay rate was much quicker in the sea than in the air.
Thus, the large-scale slaughter of dimensional lifeforms would contaminate the entire water mass.
Even thearch-class experts without special feys would put themselves at risk of never being able to leave the mass of water if they did not leave immediately.
The poison in the dimensional lifeforms’ bodies had plagued the spirit qi professionals for a long time.
According to research from the Radiance Federation’s scholars, the poison continuously evolved and became stronger.
The Azure Federation was made up of many islands, and all their resources came from the sea.
The water world dimensional rifts had also been opening at random around the sea.
But there had never been any cases of the Azure Federation’s citizens being poisoned after consuming the seafood from the sea until a few years ago.
After experiments and analysis, it was discovered that the poison in the seafood was very similar to that of venomous dimensional lifeforms but had a much lower concentration. It was low enough that the fish and shellfish did not immediately decay after death like the water world dimensional lifeforms.
Humans were at the top of the food chain, but regardless of the sturdiness of spirit qi professionals’ bodies and the certain degree of resistance they had to venom, it would be easy for regular people to fall prey once they were exposed.
The Azure Federation had been troubled for the past few years. They guarded the treasure trove that was the Class 6 water world dimensional world but could not begin harvesting its resources.
Now, not only had they failed to obtain the resources, but many dimensional lifeforms were emerging from the water world dimensional rift and destroying the surrounding environment.
At first, the Azure Federation dispatched spirit qi professionals like they usually did to kill the water world dimensional lifeforms.
But it did not take long before the quantity of water world dimensional lifeform became so overwhelming that the Azure Federation started to understand the seriousness of the issue.
Once the spirit qi professionals eliminated the dimensional lifeforms, their own bodies and the bodies of their feys soon started to display different degrees of decay due to being submerged in the water for too long.
Luckily, many healing-type feys could neutralize such levels of decay.
But while the spirit qi professionals and feys had been saved, many aquatic feys in the sea died as a result of the poison.
When the sea environment was damaged, its resources would also be reduced.
Clearing out the poison from the dimensional lifeforms’ bodies had become an issue that the Azure Federation needed to face.
Once the concentration of poison in the water crossed a certain threshold, it evaporated into the air along with the poisonous elements.
In just a short two months, more than half of the population of regular people living in the Azure Federation started showing signs of falling sick.
Eventually, the 12 aristocratic families decided to give up on harvesting resources from the sea.
All of the healing-type spirit qi professionals working in the government had also been activated to patrol around and heal whoever needed help.
The Azure Federation decided to give up its own development to protect every regular person’s lives.
However, just having the healing-type spirit qi professionals patrol around was not enough to solve the issue because there continued to be dimensional lifeforms streaming out from the Class 6 water world dimensional rift.
Even if the spirit qi professionals from the Azure Federation did not attack the water world dimensional lifeforms, the feys who lived in the sea would put their lives on the line to protect their home.
Every part of the sea also had members of the Eight Clans of Sea Emperors protecting it. As such, news spread quickly, and the Eight Clans of Sea Emperors immediately pulled aid from other areas to kill the water world dimensional lifeforms. The entire sea was soon turned into a bubbling mass of poisonous fluid.
Eventually, six of the 12 aristocratic families sent out their own experts to meet and discuss with the sea clans.
As the poison spread across the sea, the sea clans’ profits were also diminished.
The experts from the other six aristocratic families did a general spring-cleaning of the water world dimensional lifeforms around the Class 6 water world dimensional rift before they sealed off the 10-kilometer radius around the Class 6 water world dimensional rift.
Next, they gathered the power of the entire federation to cleanse the sea of venom and activated all of the spirit qi professionals who contracted ice-type feys to seal off the sea with an ice wall.
Since the Class 6 water world dimensional rift was located deep in the sea at a depth of over 8 km, an ice wall could not be erected to cover the entire depth. Thus, they could only settle for expanding the area and erecting the wall in the most shallow part of the sea.
It did not take long before the experts from the Azure Federation were relieved by this decision because, for some reason, the number of water-world dimensional lifeforms emerging from the water-world dimensional rift increased.
If they had insisted on building the ice wall around a 10 square kilometer area, the ice wall would have quickly been destroyed by the dimensional lifeforms. Then, all of their efforts would have been for nothing!
The Azure Federation had already burned a hole in their pockets, cleansing the pollution from the sea.
If they had to pay the same price again, the Azure Federation might never be able to recover.
The Azure Federation could build an ice wall to contain the water world dimensional lifeforms on their own. However, they could not keep the ice wall from melting for long in a sea with a temperature of over 25 degrees.
Eventually, the 12 aristocratic families decided to seek help from the Radiance Federation in the hopes of receiving aid from them.
Although the Azure Federation had always remained a neutral party and could seek help from either the Freedom Federation or Radiance Federation, it still chose the Radiance Federation in the end.
This was in spite of them knowing that the Radiance Federation was in the process of venturing into the abyssal world and needed a large number of spirit qi professionals who had contracted ice-type feys, so the chances of them agreeing to help were low.
But after taking a vote, many of the Azure Federation’s aristocratic families did not want to become too close to the Freedom Federation.
Frankly, the 12 aristocratic families made a decision about who they would choose if they had to pick a side between the Radiance Federation and Freedom Federation.
If one did not need to make an immediate decision, one would start to hesitate and ponder. No one wanted to suffer unnecessary losses because of their decision.
But once they made the necessary choice and removed all objective elements, they would be able to make a clear-headed decision.
It was like when one had 20 dollars and two things they wanted to buy to eat. They would eventually make a decision when they got too hungry.
When Lin Yuan received the news from the Moon Empress, he contacted Yin Lin through the Thoughts Letter Paper.
