"Ling Shao, this Jiang Chen is indeed our greatest enemy. Whether we want to explore those secret realms or dominate this world, we must eliminate him! His influence and cohesion are terrifying!"

The old man continued after Ling Qiuyan's words, solemnly:

"Despite our constant attempts to discredit him, he managed to unite nearly a third of the world's forces in just one year, forming a Martial Alliance."

"And now, because..."

Saying this, the old man pondered for a moment, then continued with a serious expression: "Due to the events of the past two days, all other forces have sent representatives to Flame Dragon to find this Jiang Chen. If he recruits them as well, we will indeed be opposing the entire Life Origin Star!"

"Relax, we're staying here just to wait for that Jiang Chen, aren't we?" Ling Qiuyan said with a steely expression.

"Wait for Jiang Chen?" Huo Lian frowned, confused, looking at Ling Qiuyan.

Ding!

Just as Ling Qiuyan was about to explain, a notification sounded, and he closed his mouth, looking up at the old man.

The old man frowned slightly, took out his phone, looked at it, and his eyes lit up with joy: "Ling Shao, Jiang Chen indeed sent people to contact those military leaders, and Jiang Chen will arrive soon!"

"Very well!"

Ling Qiuyan smiled coldly and turned to Huo Lian: "You asked why we waste our time here, didn't you? This is the reason!"

"The greatest enemy on the entire Life Origin Star is Jiang Chen, the Dragon Descendant, the chess piece left by the Ancestral Dragon! Once we eliminate him, the martial artists on Life Origin Star will be nothing but a loose sand."

"By then, relying on our capabilities, we may have already taken control of this world before the Grand Alliance even opens the passage."

"At worst, we've already explored the secret realms on Life Origin Star, making us a step ahead in controlling it!"

At the end, Ling Qiuyan proudly raised his head.

"So you anticipated that Jiang Chen would come all along?" Huo Lian's eyes lit up, looking at Ling Qiuyan in surprise.

Ling Qiuyan nodded confidently and said: "The existence value of the Dragon Descendant is to safeguard the Life Origin Star. Guys like them, who pride themselves as heroes, would never ignore what's happening here. As long as we don't leave and stay here, he will definitely come!"

Huo Lian got excited hearing this: "No wonder you didn't hesitate to use all our Spirit Stones to set up a Spatial Array above this place, just to wait for him. Once he's in the formation, no matter how many people he brings, as long as the formation isn't broken, it's as if he alone faces all of us! He's doomed!"

"The only uncertainty now is when the second batch of people will arrive."

At this point, Ling Qiuyan frowned slightly, speaking with a hint of worry: "Although the second batch has fewer people than us, they are all formation experts. With them as the main array, the Spatial Array will have no flaws, but relying only on us..."

Li Wuming chimed in: "Ling Shao, rest assured. Those people with Jiang Chen are just products of the Era of Martial Decline on this Life Origin Star. How could they understand a Spatial Array? Once they enter the formation, they can only let us do as we please! That's all thanks to Ling Shao's brilliance!"

Saying this, he gave Ling Qiuyan a thumbs-up, smiling obsequiously as he flattered.

Ling Qiuyan smiled slightly, said nothing, and began to ponder.

....

"Nuclear weapons?"

At the Overseas Alchemy Academy's location, in a small meeting room, Jiang Chen looked at his phone and exclaimed in surprise.

"What nuclear weapons?" Dragon Saint asked puzzled.

After leaving Dingyun Lake Manor, Jiang Chen and his group did not hastily head to Aoli Country but first went to the Alchemy Academy, as the top experts of the alliance were gathered here.

At this moment in the meeting room, Jiang Chen sat at the head, with Dragon Saint, You Xuan, the Pope, the Supreme Emperor, Yue Tianzheng, Mu Lisi, the Stygian Dragon, and You Bitong lined up on both sides.

"Old Shen just sent me a message asking if we should consider using nuclear weapons to deal with those space rifts!" Jiang Chen said softly.

"This..."

"Can nuclear weapons deal with those space rifts?"

"Is that possible?"

Dragon Saint and others exclaimed in astonishment.

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow and spoke softly: "Nuclear weapons... Dragon Saint Senior, last time when you went to intimidate the damn Southern Country, you and Elder You each stopped a nuclear bomb. How many nuclear bombs do you think you can withstand if you go all out?"

"I... under prepared conditions, I can withstand five nuclear bombs, but if it's just to escape, it would take a coverage attack of twenty nuclear bombs to hit me!" Dragon Saint said softly.

You Xuan glanced at Dragon Saint, hesitated for a moment, and said nothing.

"Elder You, just speak. Among us, only you and Dragon Saint Senior have the strength comparable to those descending Divine Souls. Let's temporarily disregard the potential depletion after their arrival and assess the situation based on your strongest capabilities! I need your data for reference!"

Noticing You Xuan's unusual expression, Jiang Chen turned to You Xuan and encouraged.

You Xuan looked at Dragon Saint, then spoke softly: "My Second Soul is a bit stronger than Dragon Saint's Second Soul since mine condensed earlier, and Lord Xue helped strengthen it. Based on the nuclear bomb situation, I can withstand seven nuclear bombs, and under an attack within a hundred miles by thirty nuclear bombs, I can successfully escape, with the worst case being my Second Soul escaping!"

Dragon Saint smiled slightly, feeling gratified by You Xuan's deliberate explanation, and nodded at You Xuan.

"Thirty..."

Jiang Chen pondered, then turned directly to stare at Dragon Saint: "Dragon Saint Senior, tell me honestly, I don't need to know the exact numbers, just let me know whether you think the countries around the world combined possess three thousand nuclear bombs?"

"Yes, the countries around the world combined have more than three thousand nuclear bombs."

Dragon Saint was stunned for a moment, then understood Jiang Chen's thought, solemnly nodding: "However, Mr. Jiang, space rifts are not only in open areas; many are in cities. Although we've evacuated the populace near the rifts, dropping nuclear bombs there would turn those areas into wastelands!"

"Dragon Saint Senior, I understand your concern, but you seem to have overlooked something."

Jiang Chen smiled slightly: "Dragon Saint Senior, don't forget, with the resurgence of Spiritual Energy, people's physical constitution has improved worldwide. More and more people can start cultivating. The radiation from nuclear bombs at most affects Profound Level Martial Artists. When a martial artist reaches the Earth Level, merely being exposed to the radiation from a nuclear explosion is like an ordinary person using a computer with little impact!"

After a pause, Jiang Chen glanced at everyone and said solemnly: "We now have two options, and I hope everyone will help me make a judgment."
