Chapter 2372: Chapter 2371: Mission Accomplished
Ling Feng was stunned and asked in surprise, "Is this really possible?"
"Of course it is!"
The voice seemed to chuckle, then said, "Don’t underestimate the capability of our Lingjian Mountain!"
Ling Feng let out an "Oh": "If that’s the case, then I have nothing more to say. I am willing to join Lingjian Mountain!"
"Great!"
As soon as the words fell, a flash of white light appeared in the Hall of Heroes, and suddenly a glowing red orb materialized.
The orb hovered in the air and gradually transformed into a pearl the size of a dragon’s eye, landing in Ling Feng’s hand.
"This is a Sky Control Pearl. With it, you can transcend spatial limitations, traveling freely between Lingjian Mountain and your world," the voice said.
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng felt as if he had obtained a treasure and quickly nodded, saying, "Thank you very much!"
"Heroes, joining Lingjian Mountain signifies that your civilization has been recognized and will be under the protection of Lingjian Mountain. Congratulations!" the voice continued.
Ling Feng was even more pleasantly surprised upon hearing this.
At this moment, Mo Yan’s hand flashed, and several white-glowing items appeared, flying straight toward Ling Feng and the others.
Upon receiving them, everyone found they were badge-sized emblems, with a pattern on it that was a miniature of Lingjian Mountain.
"This is a symbol of your identity. With it, those from Lingjian Mountain will know who you are," the voice said.
"Okay, understood."
Ling Feng nodded and attached the badge to his chest.
Ling Yao and the others did the same, pinning the badges to their clothes.
Then the voice continued, "After joining Lingjian Mountain, there are many details regarding things that need to be explained to you. But considering you have just finished your trials and still have many earthly matters to deal with, you can take some leave and return after everything is settled."
"Alright, thank you very much!"
Ling Feng nodded, thinking this arrangement was perfect. If there were no such arrangement, he would consider asking for leave.
Since there was a holiday, they didn’t stay long in the Hall of Heroes and left shortly after.
This time Mo Yan escorted everyone to the fissure, then said, "For now, you can enter Lingjian Mountain using the badges while in Xuanling Realm and on Earth. But once the Chaos Sword leaves, the temporal and spatial gap will be too vast, and the Sky Control Pearl will be necessary."
Ling Feng nodded, "Understood, thank you for the reminder."
"Alright, I won’t see you off, let’s meet again later."
Mo Yan smiled and turned to leave.
After passing through the fissure, Ling Feng and the others immediately returned to Xuanling Realm.
No one spoke as they flew back to Xuantian City.
Upon returning to the City Lord’s mansion, Ling Feng and the others all showed expressions of relief.
After entering Lingjian Mountain, the air was filled with dense Xuan Qi, and there was a strong sense of pressure, making everyone feel burdened. Now back in familiar territory, they finally felt at ease.
"What kind of existence is this Lingjian Mountain!" Long Xiaoyu said.
"Hard to say, it seems they’re not that ultimate super civilization," Ling Feng said.
Previously, when he met Yun Cheng, the mention of an advanced civilization only occurred after he left, so Ling Feng hadn’t heard it.
The current speculation was entirely based on his intuition.
"I have the same feeling, they seem just to be a higher-level civilization than Xuanling Realm, acting as executors of trials, rather than real overseers," Ling Yao said.
"Anyway, since we’re now part of Lingjian Mountain, eventually we’ll unravel these mysteries."
Ling Feng said, then added, "This holiday has no time limit, we don’t need to rush, let’s slowly decide when to go."
"There are still many things to sort out, indeed, no need to hurry!" Ling Yao said.
Besides Ling Feng, Long Xiaoyu, Ling Yao, and Amaterasu returned to Earth first. Since the trial ended, Ling Feng figured the outside world would be anxious to know the actual results.
Having everyone return to convey peace of mind could also put everyone at ease.
As for Ling Feng, he stayed in Xuantian City, intending to reassure everyone that he would not abandon this place and planned to develop it well.
Since the Dragon Clan had surrendered, promising to stay confined and not oppress the Jungle Tribe and the Dark Clan anymore, those once deemed as inferiors now finally had the chance for stable development.
However, it wouldn’t be an easy task, and Ling Feng had much work to do.
Xuantian City’s management was already shaping up, but considering a large influx of outsiders in the future, Ling Feng selected five hundred elite soldiers from the Ling Family’s troops to form a settlement group.
As they welcomed and guided newcomers, they also hastened to transform the slums, replacing messy houses with standardized structures, all while ensuring cleanliness.
With full bellies and newfound strength, knowing their fate had fundamentally changed and they wouldn’t be oppressed any longer, people’s motivation was also high.
As Xuantian City bustled and thrived, Ling Feng began developing land reclamation work.
To ensure enough food for tens of thousands of people, relying solely on forest beasts would not be viable; a large amount of arable land was necessary.
At this time, the Magic Crystal Warriors became useful.
For five consecutive days, Ling Feng was utterly busy, and as the various projects rolled out entirely, he finally found time amidst his busy schedule to leave Xuanling Realm with Xiao Xiao, Mu Mu, the Shui Lan sisters, and Mu Wan’er.
Back on Earth, Ling Feng first handed everyone over to Ling Yao and others for company, then promptly headed to the Capital City.
Though already conveying peace, some matters still required face-to-face talks with Han Wancheng.
By the time Ling Feng arrived, Han Wancheng was ready to receive him.
In a large conference room, Ling Feng saw over twenty people seated, with many more watching through a large screen on the wall.
As soon as he entered, thunderous applause erupted.
Ling Feng’s actions had changed Earth’s fate, effectively saving all of humanity’s civilization, and such a reception was well-deserved.
After sitting down, Han Wancheng immediately said, "Ling Feng, welcome back, we’ve all been waiting for you for a long time!"
"I know, but there were many things to handle in Xuanling Realm, so I was delayed a few days."
Ling Feng smiled and continued, "Now that humanity is safe, having passed the trial, I’ve become a part of Lingjian Mountain, and Xuanling Realm has also become my personal domain. I’m planning to develop it well so that it can also serve as a migration area in the future."
