Chapter 163 - Commotion on the Internet
The old farmer continued to look absolutely confident in himself, as if he had become a god.
Everyone had realized by then that it was not simply an old farmer in front of them. The farmer was only enthralled; it had been the White Ape King talking all the while.
“You humans have taken all the advantage in the past eras, but now that spirit qi is restored to the world, all living beings shall stand on the same starting line again, and you people won’t have so much of an advantage,” the farmer continued with great confidence.
Many were silent as they watched the ongoing inquiry in front of their computers. What the old farmer said made them think, as humans really did not seem to have that much of an advantage in the new era.
In the past, humanity had most prided themselves on their intellectual capacity, which dwarfed all that of other beings. However, with spirit qi being restored, monsters like these would be able to gradually develop intelligence comparable to humans.
If that were to happen, the one thing that humanity took pride in the most would be reduced to nothing.
In an era like that, common folks would have no way of resisting those beasts who had turned into monsters.
The White Ape King had been able to cause over ten thousand deaths in one single night while just running away. Such a thought made a lot of people shiver.
As such, they were waiting. They were definitely not just waiting for the chance to make a breakthrough into Invincible Vajra level, either; they were probably waiting for the day where they could go beyond Invincible Vajra level altogether.
Once such a monster appeared, it would probably pose a huge threat to the current human world that everyone knew, as it would be the herald of true monster kings.
Even high-tech weapons would have a hard time posing a lethal threat to beings such as those, with the exception of nuclear bombs, which in turn would mean turning nukes from unthinkable deterrents into ordinary, standard weapons.
Doing so would surely bring about the end of the world.
That was the very reason why there no other monster kings were coming out to make their point other than the White Ape King. Every monster that was of decent cultivation level was lying in wait instead.
The huge commotion caused by the live broadcast was spreading everywhere like wildfire.
It even began to cause mass panic. Humans had yet to get used to dealing with monsters, as they had only been the stuff of legends until very recently.
Common folks had no way of dealing with the monsters just yet, after all.
Everyone was thrown into a panic by how the White Ape King, who’d simply popped out of nowhere, had emerged to make its point like that.
Just one day later, every single human in a small town near Shennongjia was slaughtered by a great number of beasts enthralled by the White Ape King.
The army only saw the place littered with bodies when they got there.
The internet was all abuzz right away.
Everyone was shocked by what they saw. The White Ape King had made good on its word, killing over ten thousand people in a single day. The ape had made it clear that it was not just bluffing.
Everyone was enraged. The entire internet demanded that the White Ape King be punished and that the animal could not be allowed to live any longer.
The mood in Yunxuan Villa was a tense one, as well. Everyone had seen the news on the internet. The whole world was shocked by so many people being slaughtered, just like that.
It began to give people a sense of urgency.
Lu Xuan, on the other hand, held Lu Guoguo in his arms, remodeling her body with his Spiritual Qi so as to lay a firm foundation for her future.
A grin came across Lu Xuan’s face at that moment as he put his little sister down and said, “Be a good girl, and go play somewhere else, Guoguo. Your brother needs to go out and see someone.”
