Chapter 1100: Chapter 352: Shadow Alliance, His Excellency the Bishop

Shen Junsong truly and vividly felt despair in his heart.

Shen Rufeng failed his tribulation, yet Ling Feng was able to walk out of Shen Rufeng’s calamity unscathed, even becoming a Tribulation Crossing Immortal because of it.

Now that he had entered the Ancient Moon Sect, he was bound to obtain the sect’s complete set of Cultivation Methods and receive unprecedented attention from them; it was almost a foregone conclusion that he would in the future become a Mahayana Infinite powerhouse.

When that time came, he would definitely not let the Shen Family go.

Rather than wait for Zhang Lingfeng to come kill them someday, it would be better to think of a way to kill Zhang Lingfeng now.

Shen Junsong admitted that his urgency to kill Zhang Lingfeng was related to Shen Qiao’an dying at Zhang Lingfeng’s hands; now the Shen Family had no heirs.

With the World Seed left in the Shen Family’s hands, not only could they not use it to nurture the Star Domain they wanted, it would also make them the target of others’ covetous gazes.

One could say that the reason the Shen Family could still stand tall—was thanks to the seed; and the reason they might fall—would also be because of the seed.

If they hadn’t been able to destroy the World Seed at the first possible moment, the Shen Family would probably have long since been torn to pieces and forced into a desperate situation—of course, their current situation wasn’t much better.

Shen Wang slowly opened his eyes; his turbid pupils were filled with the stench of death. Seeing Shen Junsong’s pained face, seeing that he had even gone so far as to use the World Seed, Shen Wang showed no intention of blaming him.

Although he had successfully crossed his tribulation, unfortunately his comprehension was insufficient, and he had not managed to grasp a complete set of Star Cultivation Methods; he had long been unable to step into the Mahayana Realm.

A lifeform like him needed an enormous amount of Life Force as support; otherwise, under the devouring of the years, he would disperse into smoke.

Even he seemed to have forgotten when he had cultivated people like Shen Junsong and Shen Rufeng.

As a Tribulation Crossing Immortal, Shen Wang was pitiful; he could cultivate Shen Junsong into a Tribulation Crossing Immortal, yet he could not extend his own Life. The only reason he could still cling to life now was because he still had Life Force left to burn.

Back then, he had personally helped Shen Qiao’an resurrect and be reborn on Jade Planet for the sake of having Shen Qiao’an use the World Seed in the future, to gift him a strand of Life Origin, helping him extend his lifespan, comprehend the secret of the origin of Life, thereby stepping into the Mahayana Stage, and even ascending to the Upper World.

Unfortunately, Shen Qiao’an died.

Shen Qiao’an also died.

But Zhang Lingfeng lived.

During this period, the Shen Family had lost quite a few resources and suffered suppression from the Alliance and the Ancient Moon Sect; now that Zhang Lingfeng had returned after crossing his tribulation, the Shen Family’s future situation could easily be imagined.

Therefore, faced with Shen Junsong’s hoarse sobbing, Shen Wang did not scold him.

Instead, he comforted him, saying, “Fate cannot be defied. Perhaps Zhang Lingfeng is the calamity of the entire Shen Family. But to use the seed against Zhang Lingfeng—he’s not worthy yet.”

“Father, you mean?”

Shen Junsong moved forward on his knees.

“Son, what you said just now was right; the seed indeed cannot be kept. But this seed can not only be used to kill Zhang Lingfeng, it can also continue to strengthen the Shen Family, making the Shen Family in this Intermediate Star Realm into something no one dares to offend.”

Hope gradually ignited in Shen Wang’s eyes.

“Your child understands.”

Shen Junsong nodded.

He realized that even his own father was filled with fear toward death.

He wanted to use this seed to exchange for a chance to extend his lifespan, even to become a Mahayana Infinite powerhouse, as well as the condition of having Zhang Lingfeng killed.

A single World Seed was enough to drive all the major consortia mad; if the Shen Family were willing to give it up, willing to hand it over, there would definitely be consortium forces willing to help Shen Wang extend his Life, even help Shen Wang achieve a breakthrough, and promise that in future Time they would protect the Shen Family and help the Shen Family kill Zhang Lingfeng.

In a world lacking Life Origin Power, even a Mahayana Infinite powerhouse could not refuse a World Seed; they would even rack their brains to fawn over the Shen Family in all sorts of ways.

Things like this had already happened many times.

“Contact the Shadow Alliance.”

Shen Wang said.

“All right.”

Shen Junsong nodded.

The Shadow Alliance transcended the Seven Great Star Systems Alliance; it was a power organization even stronger than the Ancient Moon Sect. Once they obtained the Shadow Alliance’s protection and promises, they would no longer need to worry about being unable to kill Zhang Lingfeng, nor would they need to feel anxious about the Shen Family’s future.

Only the Shadow Alliance could give the Shen Family a complete new lease of life.

And ensure that the Shen Family endured without decline, preventing others—even powerhouses of the Alliance and the Ancient Moon Sect—from harming the Shen Family. Thus handing the World Seed over to the Shadow Alliance was the clearest choice for the Shen Family, and also what Shen Wang and Shen Junsong had in their hearts.

This concerned the World Seed.

The Shadow Alliance’s reaction was practically unprecedented.

Although within the vast system of the Shadow Alliance, they had not never come into contact with World Seeds; the Shadow Alliance had even created and nurtured multiple Star Domains in the past.

They possessed many terrifying existences capable of generating Life Origin.

But the Shadow Alliance members stationed in this Intermediate Star Realm were clearly far from that level.

And if they truly could obtain the Shen Family’s seed, then that would be another matter entirely. Perhaps the Shadow Alliance members stationed in this region would also receive commendations from headquarters, and might obtain resources beyond their imagination.

In the Shadow Alliance’s creed, putting down roots in every Star Domain and making the powerhouses of each Star Domain not dare to provoke them, to follow their order and conduct affairs according to their rules—this was the original intent behind the creation of the Shadow Alliance.

By obtaining this seed from the Shen Family, the Shadow Alliance’s discourse power in this Intermediate Star Realm would become even greater; in the future, once they nurtured a planet or a Star Domain, the Shadow Alliance would also become a unique existence here.

They would leave the Alliance and the Ancient Moon Sect far behind, unable even to see their dust.

Therefore, when Shen Junsong contacted the Shadow Alliance, one of the Shadow Alliance’s Bishops crossed multiple Star Domains and almost immediately descended upon the Shen Country Star Realm to meet with Shen Junsong.
