Just now, the bugs that have invaded Earth have already forced the military to use nuclear bombs. If the bugs increase their scale of invasion, how will humans resist? Chu Yunsheng felt his brain was not enough to handle the situation.

However, the appearance of nuclear bombs, besides causing these worries, unexpectedly alleviated the panic of the great extinction that had been weighing on his mind. The military could launch a nuclear attack, and the location was more than 150 kilometers away from Jinling City, at least indicating that Jinling City's military strength was still intact. They were working hard to find ways to eliminate the massive bug swarm threatening Jinling City!

Perhaps he was being overly anxious. Human civilization has dominated the top of the Earth's biological hierarchy for countless years, and various powerful ultimate weapons have been continuously developed. How could they be completely wiped out by alien monsters in just one night?

However, the use of nuclear bombs with significant side effects at this moment probably means that the military in Jinling City has been left with no choice. Thinking about the bug swarms surging like spring tides, besieging Jinling City and attacking day and night, defeat is almost certain without special means.

Perhaps the Empire of America on the other side of the Earth has already used their more precise and advanced ultimate weapons. With all communications cut off, no one would inform other countries.

But whether it's nuclear bombs, dirty bombs, or neutron bombs, they cannot fundamentally solve the problem. The complex spatial rifts where the celestial tracks overlap are still there, and the more they are bombed, the larger they become, and the more bugs appear. It's like drinking poison to quench thirst!

These troubling matters made Chu Yunsheng's head ache more and more. Fortunately, he was not one of the big shots in Jinling City; these matters should be their concern! What he could do was to enhance his strength as quickly as possible, the faster the better. Now, even a first-grade battle armor cannot withstand the aftereffects of a nuclear explosion!

The battle armor made from bugs requires an astonishing number of red armor bugs. More terrifyingly, bugs have already entered Earth in large numbers, and solitary bugs are almost extinct. Those large swarms of bugs, he could not possibly kill them all and take away their corpses calmly.

When he was in the Mist City, Du Qishan's troops mobilized a large number of people and collected a large amount of red armor bugs and red-eyed monsters for him in just three days, far exceeding what he could collect alone. This deeply moved him, so in the Mist City, Chu Yunsheng vaguely thought of a method.

He planned to exchange weapons and equipment for resources and materials once he arrived in Jinling City!

Now, on the entire Earth, the only person who can provide a large number of weapons for awakened warriors, energy shields similar to those of bugs, indestructible armor, even energy replenishment talismans and monster confinement talismans, is him!

As long as the weapons are sealed with the various talismans he inscribed, their power will greatly increase, allowing even warriors with low attack capabilities to surpass many powerful talents. For newly awakened warriors whose early abilities are almost useless, like Yu Xiaohai, who initially could only create some ice rain, it would be difficult to even kill a rat, but once equipped with Chu Yunsheng's ice arrows, they would immediately become almost as powerful as warriors like Yao Xiang with strong attack capabilities!

Even more attractive is that, according to ancient books, as long as Chu Yunsheng finds suitable sources of energy, he can seal them into weapons, allowing even ordinary people who have not awakened to use his weapons!

The Six Jia Talismans, which have powerful energy protection functions, can even withstand the blades of bugs. These can be used not only by awakened warriors but also by ordinary people, with the only difference being the level of power.

Talismans like the energy absorption talismans and monster confinement talismans are essential for survival and escape for awakened warriors, and their importance goes without saying.

Chu Yunsheng did not plan to reveal everything at once. Any of these items could cause a sensation, and he did not want to attract the attention of those big shots. From the incident with Du Qishan, he always felt that those people were unreliable.

Once the talismans are successfully inscribed, the rules are established, and the inscription marks are automatically erased, leaving only strange symbols and patterns on the talismans. The inscribing rules and techniques are only recorded in ancient books, so there is no need to worry about anyone cracking them, even those highly intelligent scientists.

This effectively made Chu Yunsheng's business exclusive. Moreover, he could even create special talismans for specific individuals. Once sealed, only the person and Chu Yunsheng, who inscribed the talisman, could use it.

Chu Yunsheng had carefully considered that as long as he found the right channels to release these weapons and equipment, he could sit in Jinling City and exchange for various materials and resources while focusing on cultivating the more challenging Two Yuan Heaven realm!

This realm is no longer like the One Yuan Heaven realm, where he could just swing the Qianbi Sword and wait for a breakthrough. It's like a child repeatedly practicing the basics of writing, such as strokes, radicals, and pinyin, just to prepare for recognizing more characters, forming words, and eventually writing essays.

His current cultivation level is roughly at the "recognizing characters" stage.

In the One Yuan Heaven realm, his body underwent a complete and thorough absorption and release process 81 times. This repeated training made his body extremely proficient in absorbing, storing, running, flowing, and releasing energy, much like a child mastering the basic strokes and radicals. The next step is to combine these into more complex characters.

This process, corresponding to Chu Yunsheng's Two Yuan Heaven realm, requires him to use his body's proficiency in energy to follow the cultivation rules and techniques from the ancient book, gradually transforming his entire body into a fused energy body. Once he becomes a fused energy body, he can convert the energy of heaven and earth into his own energy, which is far more powerful, deeper, and more precise.

This is why Chu Yunsheng's combat technique can only produce six sword shadows. His body is still only a roughly fused energy body, far from the complete fused energy body.

This cultivation process no longer requires Chu Yunsheng to wield the Qianbi Sword and fight to the death everywhere. He only needs a safe place to stimulate his energy, follow the techniques, and accelerate the fusion process.

When the next day, a faint light appeared in the sky, a group of ragged people appeared before him, hoping to hire him with food. Chu Yunsheng did not refuse and joined them on their journey to continue fleeing to Jinling City.

This was a strange group. Before Chu Yunsheng joined, these ordinary people had hired six awakened warriors one after another.

They were very lucky; the first person they hired was a young man named Zhao Shanhe. He was a warm-hearted fire warrior. Since the dark age, Chu Yunsheng had never seen such an enthusiastic and hopeful person. His catchphrase was: "If heaven does not save us, we must save ourselves!"

It was because of him that this group of ordinary people managed to keep their food from being taken by other awakened warriors and instead hired five more awakened warriors in a very unusual way, using food as payment.

These five people were even stranger: a timid official, a deserter who awakened halfway, a rambling "witch," a taciturn chef, and a bald businessman.

Including Chu Yunsheng, there were exactly seven people!
