Chapter 3428: The arrangement of the cornerstone platform (1)
Translator: 549690339
The deadline set by the cornerstone platform had arrived, but the peak God-level generals had yet to complete the assigned case-solving missions.
The two missing peak-level divine generals were still nowhere to be found.
If it was really like looking for a needle in a haystack, it would be an easy task and the peak divine generals would definitely be able to complete it easily.
To them, as long as something existed, there was no possibility of not finding it.
However, this event was different. The peak immortal generals searched the camp but couldn’t find any clue.
There might be a chance of getting some useful clues if they went deep into the island, but the peak God generals didn’t do that.
The divine generals were well aware of the dangers in the depths of this Island. There might be a hidden mastermind, which was also a nest of ancient creatures.
No matter what the situation was, he had to be on high alert and not take any risks.
If he forced his way into the depths of the island, his name might appear on the list of missing divine generals.
The peak God generals all agreed that the God King had to take action in order to find out the truth.
Only an expert of this level could use a stronger method to solve this almost unsolvable mystery.
Although the deadline was up and the mission wasn’t completed, the peak divine generals felt relieved.
Even if they didn’t complete the mission and had to suffer the corresponding punishment, the peak divine generals were willing to do so.
They couldn’t wait for this to end as soon as possible and didn’t want to be involved in this anymore.
It wasn’t that the peak gods were afraid, but that this matter was really complicated and might involve a powerful existence that they couldn’t fight against.
Lou Cheng’s cultivators weren’t afraid of danger, or even death, but they had to distinguish the situation.
It was clearly a foolish act to charge head-on into it despite knowing that death was certain, leading to a pointless sacrifice in the end.
Especially cultivators at their level, they were of extraordinary significance and could not be easily killed.
Ensuring one’s own safety and staying away from life-threatening danger was also a form of responsibility to the battle zone.
Since they had clearly realized that this matter was not something they could handle, there was naturally no need to continue to show off.
It had nothing to do with responsibility or shame, it only knew when to advance and when to retreat.
The peak-level immortal generals gathered together soon got the information they wanted. The cornerstone platform had already given the order.
As expected, they were all punished after failing the mission.
Because of the severity of the matter, the punishment was far more severe than before. Even the peak divine general felt the pain.
However, as long as this matter was over and he could get out of it, it didn’t matter if he suffered some punishment.
No matter what happened in the future, at least he would not be involved. This way, he could avoid suffering greater losses.
According to the rules of the cornerstone platform, when a cultivator failed a mission, they no longer needed to participate in it.
Unless there were special requirements to apply for repeated participation in missions, the cornerstone platform would not specially arrange it.
Since the mission had already failed, they naturally had to replace it with a stronger cultivator to ensure the success rate of the mission.
The other purpose was to prevent cultivators from Lou Cheng from being punished by the cornerstone platform again if they failed their mission.
If he was punished twice for the same mission, it would be too unlucky and unfair.
The peak-stage God-level generals who were being punished felt relieved. It didn’t matter to them who would be the unlucky one next.
After countless years of accumulation, there was actually a group of top powerhouses in the fourth battle District.
Every one of them had tried to advance to the God King stage. However, after many years of bitter cultivation, they had not made much progress.
Some divine generals would choose to stay in the origin realm and continue to cultivate in search of opportunities, while others would travel around the world and slowly look for opportunities to ascend to the throne.
There were no shortcuts to becoming a godly King. The only difference was that the chances of success were higher in the origin realm.
The path of condensing the seed of rules was actually an imitation of ancient creatures.
Super creatures condensed law particles, while cultivators condensed law seeds. Both had the same effect.
When one’s cultivation reached its peak, regardless of whether it was a super creature or a cultivator, they all had the chance to step onto the throne.
It was easier said than done. Many peak divine generals had returned in disappointment after reaching the origin realm.
The number of native cultivators was even higher.
The peak-stage divine generals wanted to know who would take over the investigation mission, but they didn’t get a reply from the cornerstone platform.
The implications of this mission were too great, and the cornerstone platform had to keep it a secret. It was absolutely impossible to casually leak related information.
The peak-level immortal generals felt a bit regretful; however, they soon gave up this thought as they didn’t want to be involved in this event too much.
However, the following task made them dumbfounded.
Although the investigation mission had stopped, the peak-stage God-level generals still couldn’t leave. They had to continue guarding the hunting camp.
For the fourth battle area, the hunting camp was of great significance, as it provided pure law particles that even peak divine generals could not lack.
Ordinary super creatures could also produce rule particles, but they could not be compared to the descendants of ancient creatures.
The difference wasn’t just in purity. The latter was more beneficial in condensing and comprehending laws. After all, their ancestors were comparable to godkings.
Although the descendants ‘bloodline was not pure, they would still obtain some advantages in the end. In the end, they would also attract the disaster of death.
There were many descendants of ancient creatures, and only a portion of them were hunted. Most of the races were free and unfettered.
They lived in various forbidden places and ruins, forming a huge group. They lived a carefree life.
To a peak divine general, such a place was a treasure trove. If he killed as much as he wanted, he would definitely reap great rewards.
There were indeed pinnacle experts who often did such things, entering deep into the Forbidden Zone to hunt for descendants of ancient creatures.
In fact, this kind of behavior was similar to banning hunting in the sea. The only difference was the method of hunting.
The other Forbidden Lands didn’t have the forbidden Sea, so it wasn’t that troublesome. However, there were also other restrictions.
The hunting campsite could produce a stable output and was definitely a rare treasure land. It could not be abandoned easily no matter what.
The peak-stage divine generals ‘next mission was to guard the hunting camp until they were sure there was no danger.
Because it was a special time, the rewards were also very generous, which could completely make up for the previous punishment.
The peak-stage God-level generals knew that something was wrong with this arrangement.
As long as he was on this Island, he was still in danger and could encounter danger at any time.
Perhaps the only good thing was that he didn’t need to go deeper into the island to explore, which was undoubtedly safer.
When some peak-level immortal generals stayed together, they didn’t need to worry about being ambushed. Even if they were in danger, they could look out for each other.
The cornerstone platform was obviously killing two birds with one stone by scheming against the peak-stage immortal generals.
With them guarding the hunting camp, they could ensure that no accidents would happen again, and even if they did, they could easily solve it.
At the same time, they were also bait to attract the enemy to attack, so that they could find an opportunity to solve the difficult situation.
Not being able to get the mission reward, but still being dragged into the mission, this would be too much of a loss.
Perhaps it was for this reason that the foundation stone gave a generous reward, which could be considered as compensation for the God generals.
After being schemed against by the cornerstone platform, the peak-stage God-level generals naturally felt depressed, but they couldn’t do anything.
In truth, the divine generals had no one to blame for this matter, and they should have assisted in the investigation until the truth was revealed.
Since he couldn’t escape, he would just accept his fate. With the arrangement of the cornerstone platform, there might be a turn of events.
According to the speculations of the divine generals, there must be cultivators in charge of the investigation in secret, but they didn’t know the identity and strength of the other party.
Should they send more peak-level immortal generals to investigate, or should a Divine King expert go out and find the hidden mastermind?
No matter how it was done, one thing was for sure-the cornerstone platform would not give up easily.
It involved two peak divine generals, so how could it be settled so easily?
