I Stack Attributes in the Apocalypse

Chapter 193: Lu Ming: What’s the Situation?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There was a question: How many clans were there within the Black Mist Zone?

There was only one answer: There were too many to count.

Then the next question: Could anyone remember the appearance of all the different clans?

The answer was also obvious: Of course not.

The history of the Black Mist Zone was too ancient, and over the long years, countless tribes became the chosen ones to undergo tribulation, and numerous races integrated into the Black Mist Zone.

What was worth mentioning was that some races had unique forms that prevented them from marrying other races. However, most races did not have reproductive isolation between them. This led to a much greater population of mixed-blood intelligent beings than pure-blood ones!

In short, the diversity of intelligent species in the Black Mist Zone was so vast that even scholars specializing in this field could not comprehend it in a short time.

However, in the Archean City, matters of tribes and races were irrelevant.

No one cared about the specifics of each individual’s race.

Naturally, no one would bother to investigate whether the Heaven Saber Gang and the Jing family belonged to any particular race. Even if someone did investigate, it was likely they wouldn’t be able to figure it out.

But now, when the blurry flame-shaped pattern appeared on Jing Yi’s forehead, everything seemed to fall into place.

—He was a member of the Flame Clan!

The Flame Clan that had long been destroyed in the river of time!

Although he was a mixed-blood descendant of the Flame Clan from countless generations ago, it was undeniable that the blood of the Flame Clan indeed flowed in his body.

When the palace in the void arrived in front of Jing Yi, he could not help but be filled with tears.

His lips moved, as if he realized the mission he carried in his bloodline, the responsibility and hardships his bloodline had borne over tens of thousands of years.

It was as if he was thinking of the ancestors and legends of the Jing God Jing that had been passed down for generations.

Jing Yi took a deep breath.

He kowtowed fiercely before the palace and said, “Jing Yi pays respect to the Jing God and to the Ancestors!”

As expected, there was no response from inside the palace…

The Jing God, one of the seven gods of the Flame Clan, was known as the most difficult to kill and the most resilient among the seven gods of the Flame Clan at that time.

But even the resilience of the Jing God couldn’t withstand the catastrophe of that time, let alone the passage of time!

After paying his respects to Jing God, Jing Yi stood up and walked to the front of the palace on his own initiative.

When Jing Yi arrived at the entrance of the palace, a faint energy fluctuation emanated from inside the palace and enveloped Jing Yi.

After a sudden flash of light, it seemed that the palace had recognized Jingyi’s identity and slowly opened its doors.

Jing Yi stepped inside.

He passed through the dilapidated gardens and corridors, reaching the deepest hall of the palace.

Here, he met his ancestor.

The Jing God!

However, it was not the lively Jing God… but the Jing God lying in a crystal coffin…

Jing Yi looked at his ancestor, but he could not see the true appearance of the Jing God.

This was not surprising.

The gap between the Physique Realm and the Divine Spirit was too great. Even though they shared the same bloodline, their essence of life was vastly different!

There was a rumor in the Black Mist zone that mortals could not behold the true appearance of gods.

It was not that the god’s status was too high.

It was because the strength of the gods was so overwhelming that it shrouded them in a mysterious aura.

Mortals could not penetrate this layer of mysterious aura, so they could not see the true form of the gods.

At this moment, even though Jing God had fallen into a deep sleep, the essence of a god remained unchanged.

Looking at the hazy humanoid figure in the coffin, Jing Yi sighed deeply.

As an orphaned descendant of the Flame Clan, Jing Yi’s knowledge of the Flame Clan was far better than that of the outside world!

In the calamity at that time, it was rumored that the seven gods of the Flame Clan had been wiped out in a battle.

But not all of them died on the battlefield.

Among them, the Jing God, who had the strongest vitality and the greatest ability to preserve life, returned to the Flame Clan’s gathering place alive despite being severely injured.

It was precisely because of the Jing God’s command that the Flame Clan took refuge in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

At that time, the Jing God was seriously injured and could not recover, and his condition worsened day by day.

However, as a deity, the Jing God deeply understood that without the protection of a deity, a large clan like the Flame Clan would inevitably attract the covetous eyes of the entire Black Mist Zone. The extinction of their bloodline was only a matter of time.

Therefore, the Jing God made a decision!

First, he established the Flame Clan ruins to provide a safe habitat for the Flame Clan people.

However, the significance of establishing ruins was not limited to this.

The most important function of these ruins was to provide a safe and hidden place for the Jing God to heal his injuries, so that he would bring the Flame Clan back to its peak!

“But it has been too long… Ancestor, it’s really been too long…”

“No one could have imagined that your slumber would span tens of thousands of years.”

But no matter how long the wait, there was an end to it.

Looking at the Jing God in the eternal ice coffin, Jing Yi’s gaze was deep.

“The time for your awakening is approaching.”

What the Jing God was lying in was the eternal ice coffin.

It was created by the Eternal Clan’s treasure, the Stone of Eternity.

It was enveloped by an unparalleled force of time, capable of freezing the condition of the Jing God’s body inside the ice coffin, preventing his injuries from deteriorating further.

But what truly facilitated his healing was this entire Flame Clan ruin!

When the Jing God created this ruin, he used his mobile palace as the focal point. According to the unique abilities of the Jing God, whenever an intelligent being died within this ruin, both his physical body and spiritual essence would become nourishment and energy for the Jing God’s healing.

As long as the Flame Clan within the ruins continued to multiply and reincarnate, sooner or later, the Jing God would be revived!

Originally, according to the Jing God’s calculations, his revival should not have been delayed for so long.

This was because thousands of years after the Jing God fell into slumber, an internal strife erupted in the Flame Clan within the ruins, directly leading to the entire Flame Clan disappearing into the river of history.

But the past need not be revisited.

Without the offerings and the cycle of life and death of the Flame Clan within the ruins, the Jing God’s revival process came to a halt.

Fortunately, during that internal strife, the Jing family managed to escape to the outside world.

And they left behind their ancestral teachings, which were passed down through the generations.

Time was fast forwarded to today.

According to the Jing family’s ancestral teachings, the ruins of the Flame Clan would reappear in the Black Mist Zone in Jing Yi’s generation.

And the opportunity to awaken the Jing God had arrived!

Needless to say, Jing Yi knew that the huge Flame Clan ruins would surely attract the attention of countless people.

The countless treasures within the ruins could also bring about endless disputes and deaths, providing the Jing God with ample healing energy!

“Wait. Now, you and I just need to wait.”

Jing Yi gently caressed the crystal coffin as he spoke.

On the same day.

At the moment when Jing Yi called forth the Jing God’s Palace from the void, Lu Ming was cultivating the Body Forging Technique.

After practicing the Body Forging Technique, Lu Ming wiped the sweat on his forehead and opened the attribute panel again.

On the attribute panel, the words “Void Realm (Beginner) (Advancing)” were constantly glowing, but he did not know when he could complete the advancement. However, Lu Ming was not in a hurry.

His life was pretty good now… Other than the frequent sounds of fighting and killing in Flame City, everything else was quite satisfactory.

Just as he was about to continue cultivating, Lu Ming suddenly frowned.

This was because he suddenly felt that the words of the “Void Realm (Beginner) (Advancing)” were flashing faster…

And not only that!

The entire attribute panel slowly began to emit light.

This strange scene made Lu Ming scratch his head.

“What’s going on?”

He had no idea…

He could not make sense of it.

However, Lu Ming had a hunch—it did not seem to be a bad thing.

Since his thoughts were fruitless, he did not want to think about it.

Lu Ming continued to cultivate..
