After completing these tasks, Ding Huan used his control of the War Disc to gather the tens of thousands of Undying Spiders together and then released the Blossom God Crystal Stones from their bodies.
He was the master of War Disc number one, and these Undying Spiders could only be used with War Disc number one.
If you wanted to use these Undying Spiders, you would have to take War Disc number one.
With War Disc number one consuming so much, it was naturally impossible for Ding Huan to take it with him. Since he couldn’t take it with him, he certainly had no need to leave these Undying Spiders behind.
As long as he removed the energy from these Undying Spiders, they would just be a pile of materials.
"Brother, these Undying Spiders are quite powerful creatures; they can undoubtedly serve as first-rate assistants in fighting Fierce Beasts," Zhong Chi couldn’t help but speak up when he saw Ding Huan withdrawing another batch of Blossom God Crystal Stones from the spiders.
"Mr. Zhong, don’t act as if you’re the boss of the Federation. If I give you these things, can you actually keep them safe?" Ding Huan said helplessly.
Zhong Chi loudly replied, "Brother Ding, you’re underestimating me. Why couldn’t I keep them safe?"
Ding Huan spoke indifferently, "Don’t believe me? Let’s make a bet. These two War Discs, let’s see how long you can control them. If you can control them for more than a month, I’ll consider you the winner."
"Don’t even mention a month, even if I keep control of them forever in my hands, Zhong Chi, who would dare to challenge me? These are things we fought for together. Who would dare to claim them?
Also, I can’t control War Disc number one, you can just take it with you, Brother Ding, I’ll only control War Disc number two."
Zhong Chi patted his chest with a thwack.
Ding Huan waved his hand dismissively: "I also won’t take War Disc number two. I’ll give you auxiliary access in a bit, and you’ll be able to control War Disc number two just the same. However, I’ll be taking the energy with me, which you won’t be able to do."
"Alright, it’s settled then." Zhong Chi was actually reluctant for Ding Huan to take the War Discs to play around with, as they were tools for restraining Fierce Beasts.

Moreover, studying these War Discs could also promote the progress of Earth’s civilization.
"Let’s go, Mr. Zhong, you can also go report back to the Federation.
And I’ve left you a thousand Blossom God Crystal Stones, only four hundred of which are yours.
The rest you divide by giving four hundred to Qu Yi, then Fang Chong and Lv Zi, a hundred each..." After saying this, Ding Huan waved at Qi Xinyue and Lao Liu and turned to head toward his own spaceship, the Blue Star.
Ding Huan now had plentiful resources on him, and he still intended to make a trip to Kunlun Mountain.
Kunlun Mountain was not just rich with resources, but it was also a site where Ancient Immortals had once thrived. What if he found something good there?
Even if he couldn’t find any relics or treasures, he could still stay at Kunlun Mountain to cultivate.
"Brother Ding, I’ve heard you have a female disciple named Ai Xi who cares about you a lot, and you didn’t leave her even a single Blossom God Crystal Stone?" Zhong Chi couldn’t help but ridicule.
As soon as he arrived in Puhai, he heard about several of Ding Huan’s impressive disciples:
Qu Yi, Fang Chong, Lv Zi, and Ai Xi.
Ai Xi isn’t my disciple at all, Ding Huan thought; she should be Fang Chong’s disciple.
He trusted in Fang Chong’s character and hesitated before saying, "Well, here’s what we’ll do. I’ll give you another hundred Blossom God Crystal Stones to give to Ai Xi."
"There’s no need for you to give them. I have more than enough with three hundred Blossom God Crystal Stones. My Martial Arts cultivation is almost at its peak, to be honest, the Blossom God Crystal Stones are not of much use to me," Zhong Chi waved his hand.
Ding Huan also knew that Zhong Chi was speaking the truth, which was why he had not given Zhong Chi any Blossom God Crystal Stones before.
Truly, with Zhong Chi’s Martial Arts cultivation at an Innate level, Blossom God Crystal Stones weren’t particularly useful to him.
With Zhong Chi’s nature, even if more Blossom God Crystal Stones were given to him, he would just end up giving them away to others.
Ding Huan didn’t really mind him giving them away, but he was worried that the Blossom God Crystal Stones he gave to Zhong Chi would ultimately end up in the hands of the Genetic Alliance.
Zhong Chi was the type who would count money for others even after being sold.
Watching Ding Huan board the Blue Star with Qi Xinyue and Lao Liu, Zhong Chi could only sigh.
Ding Huan was the most talented individual he had ever seen, but unfortunately, he was too unruly and unwilling to serve the Federation.
In his view, Ding Huan taking away the War Disc Energy and a pile of Blossom God Crystal Stones was a complete waste.
Wouldn’t it be better for these things to remain with the Federation? But since everything belonged to Ding Huan, as spoils of war, there was nothing he could do about Ding Huan taking them away.
...
"Big Brother, I want some Blossom God Crystal Stones for cultivation," Lao Liu couldn’t wait to whip out pen and paper to write down this request upon boarding the Blue Star.
Qi Xinyue was surprised to see Lao Liu’s intelligence; not only could he write, but his IQ was not low either.
Ding Huan looked at Lao Liu and said indifferently, "Lao Liu, I don’t mean to belittle you, but even if I gave you ten thousand Blossom God Crystal Stones, at most, you could cultivate to a Level 9 Genetic Beast, and you probably wouldn’t even be able to reach Foundation Establishment."
Lao Liu’s eyes flashed with a hint of sadness after hearing Ding Huan’s words, as he had recovered his memory for some time now and naturally knew his own situation.
Ding Huan’s words were hard-hitting, but they were frank and sincere.
What was even more painful for Lao Liu came next when Ding Huan continued,
"Even as a Level 9 Genetic Beast, at best, you could only rank third on Earth. There’s a Demon Dragon on the border defense line that’s close to reaching Foundation Establishment, and it’s definitely capable of achieving it.
So, in the future, you’ll definitely be its underling, running errands for it. There’s also a giant ape; although it can’t reach Foundation Establishment, its potential is greater than yours, and you’re no match for it...
Actually, you can’t even be third because Ah Huang has a trace of Divine Beast Bloodline and might have the chance to reach Foundation Establishment. Ah, speaking of Ah Huang, reminds me of a Fire Lizard that could also potentially reach Foundation Establishment...
Forget it, you won’t even rank in the top ten on Earth. What use do you have for Blossom God Crystal Stones? Just to waste them?"
While speaking, Ding Huan started the Blue Star, and the Blue Star turned into a flash of light, shooting towards the blue sky.
...
Federation Army Base.
Gu Zhong and a host of strong individuals were holding a meeting, where representatives from various national border defenses had gathered, and over half of the delegates from the Blue Star Ten Great Colleges had arrived.
In addition to that, representatives from the Genetic Alliance and the Martial Arts Alliance were all seated here.
"Commander Gu, another spaceship just left the alien base, and it seems to be heading towards Hua Xia," a communications soldier came to report.
Gu Zhong showed no hint of emotion; whether the spaceship went to Hua Xia was no longer of his concern.
Because as soon as the enemy launched their full attack, the entire Earth would fall.
No matter what, Earth’s civilization could not stop this terrifying alien civilization from forcibly invading through military might.
"Ha ha ha, Lao Gu, Lao Zhu, I’m back." From afar, the voice of Zhong Chi echoed in.
Upon hearing Zhong Chi’s voice, Gu Zhong’s eyes flickered with some anticipation.
After all, Zhong Chi was the strongest warrior in Hua Xia, and hence, the strongest on Earth.
"Lao Zhong, you’ve finally arrived," Zhu Qijiang hurriedly stood up.
By this moment, Zhong Chi had already entered the conference room.
"There’s no need for a meeting anymore," Zhong Chi waved his hand nonchalantly.
A woman with a stern face spoke, "Senior Zhong, do you know what you are saying? In the recent battle, seventy thousand of our Federation soldiers died, and countless missiles, turrets, and defense facilities were destroyed.
And we didn’t even inflict a single casualty on them... not even a spider... If we don’t come up with a strategy soon, all of humanity will be on the brink of extinction."
"Commander Fan, don’t make it sound so grave," Zhong Chi waved his hand away.
He knew this woman, the commander of the Federation Army’s Seventh Army, Fan Yibing.
Her name suited her well—she was an ice beauty.
Beautiful and the first beauty of the military, she was meticulous in her work. Her heart never considered her own welfare, always pondering the future of humanity and Earth.
"No, this is not an exaggeration but a fact. The survival of Earth now solely depends on us. If we cannot hold them back, Earth will be destroyed, and humanity will perish."
Fan Yibing stated even more gravely, somewhat saddened that Zhong Chi, as the strongest warrior, still had not grasped the severity of the situation.
Zhong Chi spoke with all seriousness, "I say it’s not so grave because we have destroyed that alien civilization’s base, and moreover, I have now taken control of two War Discs..."
What?
Upon hearing Zhong Chi’s words, everyone looked at him as if he were an idiot.
Zhong Chi said helplessly, "You don’t believe it, huh? Take a look at this."
He then pulled a lump of something out of his bag and threw it on the ground.
"Is that the Undying Spider?" Gu Zhong was the first to recognize it.
Having fought the Undying Spider for so long, how could his soldiers not recognize it?
But this Undying Spider seemed off-kilter; standing up, it was supposed to be quite tall, yet now it had turned into a puddle of mud?
"Exactly, it’s the Undying Spider. I’ve now uncovered the secret of the Undying Spider. Actually, it’s nothing special when you get down to it," Zhong Chi said proudly.
"Lao Zhong, are you serious?" Gu Zhong’s voice trembled, as, despite knowing that what Zhong Chi said couldn’t possibly be true, he still harbored a glimmer of hope.
What if?
"Here’s the thing, everyone just come with me to the alien civilization’s outpost. Once I enter my War Disc, I’ll show everyone what a war trophy looks like," Zhong Chi proposed broadly, waving his hand.
"Lao Zhong, this is no joke. We aren’t afraid of dying, but everyone here is Earth’s last hope. If we enter their killing range, we’d be marching to our own death," Zhu Qijiang said with a heavy tone.
Shi Changyi snorted, "If someone betrays Earth and humanity, then we’re likely being led into the wolf’s den."
Zhong Chi roared, "Shi Changyi, you despicable scoundrel, I haven’t even settled my score with you for colluding with the Fierce Beast, and yet you dare to slander your Mr. Zhong."
As he spoke, Zhong Chi was ready to take action.
Gu Zhong and Zhu Qijiang quickly held Zhong Chi back. The situation was already precarious; was now really the time for internal strife?
Zhong Chi also knew that killing Shi Changyi here wasn’t feasible, so he coldly stated,
"Those who believe in me, Lao Zhong, come with me. As for the Genetic Alliance and such cowards, just stay here and cower."
After speaking, Zhong Chi left the conference room.
"I believe in Lao Zhong." Despite Zhu Qijiang’s earlier words about this not being a joke, he was now the first to follow Zhong Chi out of the conference room.
Gu Zhong laughed heartily, "Lao Zhong’s character is still trustworthy, let’s go."
He was well aware that even if Zhong Chi had betrayed humanity, it would be a hopeless situation.
After all, hiding here and resisting was, indeed, no way to survive.
Seeing Gu Zhong and Zhu Qijiang follow Zhong Chi out, people in the conference room stood up one after another and joined the group heading towards the alien civilization’s base.
After these days of battles, they all knew, regardless of whether what Zhong Chi said was true or false, Earth’s destruction was only a matter of time.
