Chapter 1448 The Multi-Stone Has Exhausted
Speaking of the Ascension Platform, Li Lu let out a long sigh.
"Elder, the Ascension Platform has always been there."
"Always there?"
"That's right, but at the time, it was just that Long Batian had him under control."
When Li Lu saw that Chu Chen had asked this question, she didn't intend to hide it from him, so she directly told Chu Chen the whole story of the Ascension Platform.
Originally, a long time ago, there were not many people in the Batian Realm.
Moreover, there is a strange phenomenon: as long as you cultivate, you will lose the ability to reproduce.
Actually, all of this was the work of Long Batian.
However, in order to ensure that there are people in the Overlord Realm to do hard labor for him and collect multi-element stones, but not to let the people of the Overlord Realm reproduce on their own and create powerful and gifted geniuses who can surpass him through cultivation.
Therefore, he used his own strength to open a channel to another lower-level interface.
This passage is also known as the Ascension Platform.
After opening the passage, he put down his cultivation technique and infused the world with spiritual energy from heaven and earth, which was one level lower than the power of heaven and earth.
The people below should cultivate themselves, and once they reach a certain level of cultivation, they can be guided to this world.
After arriving in this world, one must transform spiritual energy into the power of heaven and earth, restoring one's strength to its original state, and then become a laborer for him.
However, these people who ascended to the heavens all had one drawback: no matter how they cultivated, they could not break through to the Limitless Realm.
Therefore, this not only preserves Long Batian's dominant position, but also ensures a continuous supply of personnel.
That's how the Ascension Platform came to be.
However, now that Long Batian has been killed by Chu Chen, all the restrictions have been lifted.
The people in the Overlord Realm have gradually returned to their original state.
They possess the same functions as normal people, so over several years and decades, the Overlord Realm slowly began to revitalize.
The birth of countless children has brought new vitality to the entire Batian Realm.
However, this creates a new problem: population issues.
Therefore, after discussion, the Ascension Platform was closed, and Chu Chen knew what happened afterward.
Chu Chen smiled after hearing this: "That's good. Previously, the Overlord Realm had been in an unhealthy state of development. This way, it will gradually return to normal."
After listening, Li Lu gave a wry smile: "Elder, although the Overlord Realm has returned to normal, a new crisis has emerged."
"Oh, what's going on?"
"Multi-element stones are already scarce. Perhaps in a hundred years, new humans will no longer be able to cultivate."
"At that time, humanity will be divided into two levels: one is those who previously possessed power, and the other is ordinary people."
After listening for a moment, Chu Chen thought about it and realized that this might not be such a bad thing after all.
For oneself, this would allow for better control of the world, wouldn't it?
"Elder, now, it is impossible for the Boundless Realm to appear again in the Overlord Realm."
"So, you are the strongest being in this world?"
“That’s right, Elder. I’m worried that one day the whole world will regress and revert to the state of ordinary people.”
Faced with Li Lu's worries, Chu Chen thought of the spring in his space. Wasn't the energy that gushed out from it all the power of heaven and earth?
Li Lu has nothing to worry about regarding this issue; she doesn't need to worry at all.
So he offered words of comfort, saying, "It's all just a world of ordinary people; it might not be such a bad thing."
“I’ve seen this before in another world. It’s full of ordinary people, but they use their intelligence to create things that are no less impressive than those from the Boundless Realm.”
"Therefore, the development of this world follows its own natural laws, and you don't need to worry too much."
"By the way, what about the mineral deposits outside? Are they still being mined?"
"No, it's all gone. Ever since that big explosion, the roads to the outside world have been completely blocked. So, the people of the Overlord Realm can't get out now, and the threats from the outside can't get in either. It's safe for the time being."
After listening, Chu Chen stood up and said, "Alright, I've learned what I needed to know. In a little while, take me to the Heavenly Emperor City. I should also go and see my old brother."
Upon hearing this, Li Lu immediately followed Chu Chen respectfully, and the two walked out of the room.
Once outside, Chu Chen looked at the bustling crowds behind the Ascension Platform and the vibrant streets.
He thought to himself, "This is what a city should look like, instead of the previous ones, where they built some kind of underground city and forced people into all sorts of ways."
Seeing Chu Chen and Li Lu come out, Li Qinglian and Li Dalang also came over.
That night, under the steward's arrangement, the group sat down at the table for drinks.
Chu Chen looked at Li Dalang beside him and thought that he should make some arrangements for this brother-in-law.
Then he said to Li Lu, "Li Lu, this is my wife Qinglian, and this is Li Dalang, Qinglian's brother!"
"Li Lu greets Madam and Young Master Li!"
Before this, Li Dalang had never seen such a great person. Even the chief steward was someone he could hardly meet. This was the Heavenly Emperor, who was like a mountain compared to the chief steward. He was so frightened that he stood up immediately.
"Li Dalang of the Ascension Platform pays respects to His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor."
Chu Chen looked at Li Dalang's appearance with a mixture of relief and helplessness.
Being honest and dutiful can indeed save Li Dalang a lot of trouble, but it can also subject him to a lot of humiliation.
Li Lu looked at Li Dalang and felt a headache coming on.
I thought to myself, your sister and brother-in-law are both top-tier people in this world, how come you don't have even the slightest bit of a playboy mentality?
If it were someone else, they probably could roam freely in the Overlord Realm.
But that's fine too. Judging from Chu Chen's intentions, his brother-in-law definitely won't take him away. So it's up to him to make arrangements.
So he said to Chu Chen, "Young Master Li, you shouldn't stay on this Ascension Platform anymore. After all, things are quite complicated. How about I arrange for him to be a city lord?"
Chu Chen smiled after hearing this, then looked at Li Dalang: "Brother, what do you think?"
"Chu Chen, Qing Lian, my elder brother is not very talented and I'm afraid he can't do it."
Chu Chen shook his head: "Li Lu, my older brother is honest. Just let him live a peaceful life as a wealthy man in this Overlord Realm!"
Relieved to receive Chu Chen's affirmative instruction, Li Lu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, Elder, this is a small matter."
Afterwards, everyone toasted and ate their fill. Then, Chu Chen led Li Qinglian into the room arranged by the steward.
"Qinglian, have you asked my elder brother how he got here and how he came to have the cultivation of a Divine Realm expert?"
Li Qinglian nodded and smiled: "Speaking of which, it can be said that you had a good opportunity, brother!"
