It's unclear how much time has passed.
As Ao Yuan continued his chanting, the animals below seemed to become increasingly entranced.
The light emanating from his body had not dissipated; on the contrary, it felt as if it were subtly intensifying.
Whether it was an illusion or not, was unknown.
Watching this scene unfold through the phone's camera, the netizens, along with Dai Xiaomei and Mozi present at the scene, felt that as time went by.
The animals from all directions seemed to have grown a bit larger.
A faint, almost imperceptible aura emanated from their bodies.
Sensing all this, their minds struggled to comprehend.
How could this group of animals have changed so drastically in such a short period under Ao Yuan's narration?
They hadn't never heard Ao Yuan preach before, but the effect was nowhere near what these animals were experiencing.
Could it be that their talent was inferior to that of these animals?
Little did they know, humans had not yet found the cultivation methods suitable for each individual.
If they did, their cultivation speed would be like a rocket.
After all, humans were the true masters of all living beings.
And at this moment.
While many netizens were focusing on Dai Xiaomei's livestream.
In Kyoto.
Elder Long was also observing all of this.
He gazed at Ao Yuan and all the surrounding animals in Dai Xiaomei's livestream, his brow furrowed.
"Elder Long, based on the current situation, our guardian divine beast should be educating the other animals."
"In my opinion, we cannot let this continue."
"No need to concern ourselves."
After a moment of silence, Elder Long's furrowed brow relaxed, and he said with conviction, "As long as Ao Yuan does not harm our citizens, we need not interfere with any of this."
"After all, we have already established some cooperation with Ao Yuan."
"Understood." The young man nodded, then pulled out a document from his embrace, his voice growing more solemn. "Elder Long, this is intelligence from the White Elephant Country."
"Please examine it."
Seeing the five stars drawn on the sealed document, Elder Long's eyebrow twitched.
After the spiritual energy resurgence, Great Xia had categorized all unknown regions and danger levels into five tiers.
Ranging from one to five, with five being the most terrifying.
"You may leave now."
Elder Long took the document and waved his hand.
After the young man departed, Elder Long cautiously opened the document and, wearing his reading glasses, began to read it carefully.
After a long while, he finished reading and remained silent.
He couldn't help but rub his temples, his face etched with fatigue.
Six hours ago, a small world entrance in the White Elephant Country had inexplicably opened.
Several humanoid monsters with three eyes had emerged from it.
They killed anyone they saw, and had already completely slaughtered several villages at the entrance.
The White Elephant Country had responded with artillery, eventually eliminating them. But an hour ago.
Dozens more strange creatures with three eyes had emerged and begun a frenzied slaughter in all directions.
The White Elephant Country was struggling to resist, but conventional firearms were ineffective against them.
Finally, the White Elephant Country mobilized tanks, aircraft, and other physical assets, and at the cost of flattening an entire mountain, they achieved a narrow victory.
Currently, the White Elephant Country had dispatched thousands of soldiers to guard the area and deployed a series of highly destructive military weapons.
"Hoo... truly, it never rains but it pours," Elder Long sighed, crumpling the document into a ball.
This matter seemed to have been resolved, but everyone knew.
This was merely the beginning!
With the emergence of creatures of such formidable power now, it was impossible to guarantee that even more powerful beings would not appear later.
In that event, how would humanity resist?
On the other side.
Ao Yuan was not thinking as deeply as Elder Long.
After the prolonged chanting concluded.
Ao Yuan slowly opened his golden eyes and cast a distant glance at the scene below.
He saw that the countless animals below were still in a state of stillness, seemingly still immersed in his chanting.
Seeing this, Ao Yuan did not disturb them further.
Instead, he transformed back to his original size and, taking Dai Xiaomei, Mozi, along with Ao Guang, the two humans and one beast, returned to the Dragon Palace.
"Dai Dai, were you preaching just now?"
Back in the Dragon Palace, Dai Xiaomei and Mozi slowly regained their senses. She asked tentatively.
"That's right."
Ao Yuan nodded faintly and then cautioned, "You two must also cultivate diligently."
"With the resurgence of spiritual energy, no one can predict what will happen next."
"Understood!"
Dai Xiaomei and Mozi nodded quickly upon hearing this.
As the two were about to leave, Ao Yuan suddenly called out to them, "Wait!"
As they turned their heads in confusion, Ao Yuan puffed out his belly and said, "I'm hungry!"
"Understood, understood, Dai Dai, we'll go buy you some food right away."
Seeing Ao Yuan like this, Dai Xiaomei and Mozi couldn't help but laugh.
Although Ao Yuan had become powerful, he had not changed from before.
After Dai Xiaomei and Mozi left, Ao Yuan looked at Ao Guang.
"Roar~ (Dragon God, that... I'll go cultivate now.)"
This startled Ao Guang, who quickly shrunk his neck and said.
"Wait."
Ao Yuan called out to him, and Ao Guang's heart trembled.
Ao Yuan's stomach was rumbling with hunger; could he be planning to eat him?
It was not Ao Guang's fault for thinking this; Ao Yuan was staring at him with such intensity that it was quite terrifying... or rather, beastly.
"Roar~ (Dragon God, what are your commands...)"
*Poof.*
Before Ao Guang could finish speaking, a Dragon Blood Pill was instantly flicked by Ao Yuan's claw and sent into its mouth.
"Thank you, Dragon God!"
Feeling the surge of power within his body, Ao Guang's eyes lit up, and he immediately knelt before Ao Yuan.
Ao Yuan casually waved his claw, signaling for him to leave.
The Dragon Blood Pill was useless to him, let alone Dai Xiaomei and Mozi.
Since that was the case, it was better to let Ao Guang consume it sooner rather than later.
This way, if something major were to happen, Ao Guang could be of assistance.
After arranging everything, Dai Xiaomei and Mozi did not keep Ao Yuan waiting long.
With their current cultivation level, crossing the Changbai Mountain was by no means a difficult task.
Moments later, the two returned with bags and bags of food.
It was clear that.
In the end, under the service of the two, Ao Yuan ate heartily while listening to the continuous sounds in his mind.
However, what left Dai Xiaomei and Mozi speechless was Ao Yuan's enormous appetite.
They had to make several trips back and forth before they could barely sate Ao Yuan's hunger.
"Burp~"
An hour later, Ao Yuan let out a satisfied burp. Glancing at the evolution points he had gained this time, his face was filled with enjoyment.
If he could have a few more such grand meals, he believed that it wouldn't be long.
Ao Yuan felt that eating so much was equivalent to others cultivating.
It was truly an immensely satisfying experience.
