Chapter 1011 – Arthur Wakes Up
Six months passed since Arthur was absorbed in the middle of the pillar\'s green light. All this time his empire never ceased growing, his people never stopped training, and his armies never defeated.
Yet this world was so vast that six months weren\'t enough to control the entire world. Up till now they faced many hidden pockets of resistance, and fought hard battles.
However they won them all. According to the reports coming from the frontlines, they might need three more months to get this job done.
Even with the growing fame of the empire that stretched to every corner of this world, people couldn\'t simply leave their homes and come to join them.
Settlements of the dark camp alongside many academies and clans here stood in front of such attempts. So if the armies didn\'t clash with those stubborn forces, no one would ever come to the empire on his own.
However when six months passed, it was time for Arthur to wake up. Like an old mountain finally getting moved, he felt his own body stiffened from all this sitting.
He was used to such long periods of cultivation when he was in his past life. In fact six months were nothing compared to the long years cultivators used to seclude themselves during and cultivate.
However this was his first time doing so in this life. His body cracked and his bones popped in loud voices when he just attempted to stand up.
He looked around. When he faced this pillar there was a big fight going on here. He didn\'t know how long it passed, but the world around changed drastically beyond recognition.
Instead of ground filled with holes and running rivers of blood from enemies and allies alike, the ground now was paved with green lush coming from thick plants.
Even at a distance he could notice the shadows of two big cities, meaning that his men were able to extend his empire there.
"What\'s going on here? How long have I slept?" As the evidence was clear in his mind, he had to make sure of how long he kept absorbing that green light.
\'Welcome back, I really missed you!\' The first to speak was Gege. she was, after all, the one buzzing around all the time, asking everyone about waking him up.
\'Ding! You went dazed for six months already,\' the system said.
\'Many things occurred. Right now the armies are way far from here fighting to unify this world. As for the empire, things are going smoothly as you can see.\'
Arthur couldn\'t refute these words. However being in trance for such a long time was a surprise even for him. He never thought he would take such a long time in cultivating his dragonair energy.
This made him recall his past when he had to stay secluded for long months and even years to just make a breakthrough. Unlike cultivation in the past, he felt his gains this time were more immense.
As he expected his body, he realized the difference at once. Aside from his body growing by three folds, his scales became sharper and bigger, brimming with pure blue light this time.
His tail became more grandiose, with a very sharp thorn at its end that kept flickering in blue light. His strength grew to the extent of not knowing his limits.
He had the confidence that facing even a grandmaster from the higher realms like that dark angel grandmaster would be much easier this time. His body and strength made him feel invincible.
Yet he knew this was just the tip of the iceberg, and he had to test himself better to know how much advancement he got.
"Let me through all the details," he asked while flapping his wings and soaring into the sky.
This simple move astonished him again. His speed from before was already high, but now it was simply described by one word: tyrannical.
Just flapping his wings once made him cross a couple of miles in a blink of an eye. If not for his strong will, he would have lost control over his body thanks to such immense speed.
As he stood in the middle of the clouds, he started to hear about what happened. He was flying towards the direction of his most beloved city, the mountain city.
He thought about going to the lake city, but he wanted to see how the mountain city ended up. He had much anticipation towards it, and hoped it would be like what he expected.
However as he flew towards it, he frowned by what he heard.
"Academies? Everyone is teaching now?" He was surprised to hear that. But after listening to more of the explanation, he couldn\'t help but ponder deeply about this.
According to the trio in his mind, the academies acted separately and secretly there was a competition in between them.
If Arthur was someone else, he would already be amazed and agree upon this situation. But not Arthur.
He came from a world based on sects. From his perspective, this act seemed honest and harmless at the start. Yet if given time, these academies would act to rival each other on the account of the empire itself.
This wouldn\'t work. For someone who experienced a more advanced system than academies, he couldn\'t help but disagree.
In his eyes, this was simply like having a mighty sect divided by its mountain peaks, with each peak acting as a separate sect on its own.
Despite the rivalry that he encouraged, things must be more unified. If people started to see the academies as separate entities, then this wouldn\'t benefit anyone in the future.
"Call out for everyone to come to the mountain city," he suddenly said, "even those fighting up front. I believe their absence won\'t affect the fights greatly by now."
\'Ding! Don\'t underestimate the enemy,\' the system didn\'t know the real reasons behind Arthur\'s claims, \'Ding! Even a cornered beast can kill a mightier being.\'
\'Besides we have only three months before completing the unification,\' the golden dragon also didn\'t see what Arthur wanted, \'so why the rush? You just woke up, why not take a few weeks break before asking for them?\'
"Just summon them here," Arthur\'s firm words made everyone realize he had his own reasons and wasn\'t just asking for a general meeting, "anyone who has an academy or ruling one must appear in the meeting, no exception."
