201: Snowflakes are falling, the north wind is howling...

Chen De, who had safely passed the test, pondered a question.

That was, the damage was wrong!

When Chen De hit himself, the amount of force he exerted determined the extent of the injury he would sustain.

Chen De, on his part, certainly had an estimate.

According to Chen De's calculations, the injuries he sustained were a full twenty-three percent less than expected.

Power doesn't just disappear for no reason, and Sect Leader Qian Chang hadn't had time to make a move earlier.

So, where did this missing damage go?

...

On the other side, the Thunder Howling Sky Dragon Clan, who were in the midst of migrating, had all stopped in their tracks, prostrating themselves on the ground and wailing.

And they were all facing the same spot.

The elders of the Thunder Howling Sky Dragon Clan whom Chen De had met were now gathered in a circle around an empty space, their eyes filled with sorrow, sadness, and a hint of bewilderment.

For them, though sad, it wasn't to the extent of the common Thunder Howling Sky Dragons.

More than that, there was a sense of bewilderment and confusion.

It was as if something important and sorrowful had happened to them.

In fact, something like that had indeed happened.

Originally, all the Thunder Howling Sky Dragon were living happily in their clan's territory.

As a Xuanzun Realm profound practitioner, the Thunder Howling Sky Dragon King was close to the peak of the Xuanzun Realm.

Under his leadership, the entire Thunder Howling Sky Dragon Clan naturally lived very well on the Xuanzhe Continent.

They believed this happy life could continue indefinitely.

However, not long ago, their King, Thunder Howling Sky Dragon King Lei Kan, suddenly summoned all of them and announced that a great calamity was about to befall the Dragon Clan.

The Dragon Emperor's main lineage had already suffered, and he was struggling alone, likely unable to hold on for much longer.

The enemy attacking the Dragon Emperor's main lineage meant that they were targeting not just one lineage, but the entire Dragon Clan.

If the Dragon Emperor's main lineage couldn't resist, their Thunder Howling Sky Dragon Clan wouldn't be able to resist either, and would only be annihilated faster.

For the sake of the clan's continuation, they had to immediately migrate as an entire clan to seek a glimmer of hope.

Thunder Kan had ruled and managed the Thunder Howling Sky Dragon Clan for many years.

His prestige was naturally unmatched by any Dragon, and no Dragon dared to disbelieve him.

To the Thunder Howling Sky Dragon, no matter how unwilling they were to leave their homeland, they had to face reality and migrate with Thunder Kan.

At first, when they started moving, everything went smoothly.

Occasionally, Thunder Kan would even speak up to boost morale, telling them not to be nervous, worried, or afraid.

Then, as they walked and walked, not long after they started, Thunder Kan suddenly let out a scream.

Immediately after, blood-red light emanated from within Thunder Kan's entire body.

In an instant, Thunder Kan was completely enveloped by the blood-red light and utterly vanished into nothingness.

Everything happened without any warning, so suddenly.

In the end, Thunder Kan didn't even leave a single fragment of his body, just like that, he was gone.

Leaving the remaining Thunder Howling Sky Dragon with no place to cry over his body.

They could only express their sorrow towards the place where Thunder Kan had disappeared.

At this moment, in front of them, suddenly...

...

Chen De suddenly thought of his Law!

However, doesn't the Law divide three-tenths of the damage?

This is only twenty-three percent, and it's an odd amount.

Suddenly, Chen De thought of something.

Because the object of Chen De's damage sharing has a limit to its own capacity to bear.

When the other party's bearing capacity is less than this thirty percent damage, the part that cannot be borne, Chen De cannot transfer it.

And once this kind of odd situation occurs, generally speaking, it should mean that the other party can no longer bear it.

Being unable to bear it also means that the other party is gone.

Because if the other party still had a breath left, they would still be able to share a breath's worth of damage with Chen De.

But the damage is clearly so much less, it must be that they are already gone.

Suddenly, Chen De seemed to have thought of something.

No!

No!

No!

Snowflakes flutter, the north wind whistles...

The familiar melody from his previous life echoed in his ears, and Chen De's heart felt a little desolate.

Because Chen De had already realized who had taken the blow for him.

All things considered, Chen De had actually only met Thunder Kan once.

But it was this single meeting that made Chen De remember him deeply.

Including this time, Chen De came in with the intention of properly showing his respect to Thunder Kan.

There was no other way, Chen De was just such an emotional person.

Whoever treated him well, Chen De would remember them for a lifetime.

Now that such a thing had happened, Chen De really didn't know how to forgive himself.

While Chen De was still grieving, Hall Master Fang Jie had already stated the purpose of Shenwu Academy's entry this time.

...

To preserve the indigenous creatures of the Xuanzhe Continent as much as possible!

After hearing this, the Shenwu Academy mentors and disciples silently nodded.

This was already the task Lin Zhuan had assigned them before their departure.

Of course, they couldn't possibly have been truly sent down for mere training.

For such a small training, Lin Zhuan had given up such a large amount of benefits.

Was it worth it?

Couldn't they train outside?

There were so many monster forests outside, and if not, with mentors protecting them, it wouldn't be more dangerous than coming in here.

If that was the case, why bother letting them come in?

Lin Zhuan was well aware of the intentions of the other two sects.

Everyone knew that it was absolutely impossible to seize all the resources with so few people in such a short time.

But seizing enough, and most, of the indigenous creatures was not a problem.

And Shenwu Academy's desire to seize this world was not to ultimately occupy such a dead and desolate place.

This would greatly reduce Shenwu Academy's ability to open, control, and utilize it.

At least, if the other two sects really succeeded, even with Shenwu Academy's efforts at recovery, regardless of cost or means, this land would still take at least several hundred years to regain its vitality.

Moreover, the sequelae arising from this would also be prolonged for a very long time.

Shenwu Academy, on its part, was naturally unwilling to see this happen.

Since those in the Heavenly Imperial Realm cannot directly intervene, then let the mentors and disciples do it.

So they came down, neither for training nor for resources, but simply to protect as many indigenous creatures as possible.

Anyway, the act of killing indigenous creatures was not openly discussed by either side.

Because Qiu Xian Hall and Qianyuan Sect had agreed that coming here was for resources.

If they wanted resources, the other party certainly wouldn't dare refuse, and then they could take action, kill them, and seize the resources. Isn't that very reasonable?

Although it was said that both sides would not conflict, Shenwu Academy's purpose was to protect the indigenous creatures, not for resources.

At most, when they encountered each other, they would directly have the indigenous creatures hand over their resources.

This way, even if Qiu Xian Hall and Qianyuan Sect truly wanted to initiate a conflict, they would have no reason to, right?

After all, their reason for coming in was for resources.

At that time, if Shenwu Academy didn't take their resources and they still took action, it would be an unjustified act.

It's still the same phrase: although they agreed not to conflict, if Qiu Xian Hall and Qianyuan Sect causelessly caused trouble without reason, that would be a different situation.
