Chapter 132 Conference of Sages After returning to his room, Lin Feng took out his communicator and realized that there were many calls. Some of them were from his parents. The videos of him causing a stir in Stone City might have reached Central Sea for his parents to learn about it.
His parents must be very anxious now, so Lin Feng hurriedly contacted Mr. and Mrs. Lin.
re “Yes, I’m fine. Don’t worry. As for how much time it’ll take before I can go back, I’m not sure yet. There are still some things I need to take care of.”
Lin Feng consoled his parents briefly. He also replied to some of the other calls.
After doing all this, Lin Feng recalled what had happened today. His strength was actually already very strong, and with his various methods, he no longer feared Second Level Metamorphic Realm martial artists.
However, if he was facing a Third Level Metamorphic Realm martial artist, he was actually still not a match. When he fought with Captain Xie, the other party was not striking to kill. Otherwise, if Captain Xie went all out, Lin Feng might not be his match.
Let alone facing Legate Zhang Zifeng. The difference was just far too enormous. “My strength is still insufficient. Astral Power is indeed worthy of being the power that inhuman experts focus on cultivating. It is indeed very important.”
Lin Feng also realized the importance of Astral Power. As long as the Astral Power was not broken, it would be very difficult to kill the other party. Although Lin Feng did not intend to give up on tempering his body, he had to cultivate Astral Power as well.
Moreover, when he practiced the “Astral Swirl” previously, he felt that something was amiss. He had actually condensed 66 strands of Astral Power in a very short period of time. If he continued to cultivate, he wondered what level he would reach.
In any case, with Dragon Rider Hao Shiyi around, it was very safe in this hotel. Lin Feng did not have to worry. Hence, he began to calm his mind and condense Astral Power.
The Supreme Commanders’ Department was the actual highest hall of humanity!
Perhaps in the imagination of many people, the Supreme Commanders’ Department should be luxurious, dignified, magnificent, and solemn. However, in reality, the Supreme Commanders’ Department was just an ordinary-looking small building
There weren’t even many people in the building.
However, the exterior of the small building was heavily guarded. Guards were everywhere, and without exception, all of them were inhuman experts!
This was the highest hall of human society, and the meeting place for the Nine Sages to discuss important matters.
At this moment, the Supreme Commanders’ Department, which had not been used for a long time, suddenly lit up. The entire Commanders’ Department seemed to be lit up.
In the Commanders’ Department, there was a huge round table with nine chairs. Above each chair was a screen and a projector.
Buzz.
Suddenly, all nine projectors lit up. A mechanical voice sounded in the empty conference room.
“The Conference of Sages is ready to begin. Greetings to Nine Lord Sages!”
As the mechanical voice sounded, the nine projectors each projected a virtual figure onto the chair.
These nine figures were the pillars of humanity, the Nine Sages of the world!
“How long has it been? The Conference of Sages has finally been held again.” “The last time the Conference of Sages was held was 28 years ago, right? At that time, two types of Predator dire beasts appeared, and an Emperor-level greater demon also appeared.”
“Tsk tsk, now we’re actually holding a Conference of Sages for a little kid in the Metamorphic Realm. This must be a first time.” “It’d be a good thing if it’s just the trouble caused by the little kid. I’m afraid it won’t be so easy this time.”
When the Nine Sages appeared, they weren’t overbearing or cold. Instead, a few of them started discussing quietly, looking just like ordinary martial artists.
But who could have imagined that they were the top martial artists of human society? They were the mainstay of human society!
The Nine Sages were all stationed in the depths of the Outland to deter those catastrophic demons. Therefore, it was rare for them to gather. Only when a Conference of Sages was held would they “meet” each other through projecting illusory figures on the virtual network.
Every Sage could hold a Sage Conference, but it could only be held when it was a matter concerning major resolutions of humanity. This Conference of Sages was jointly initiated by the three Sages of the academic faction, so it was rather rare.
“All right, all the old friends are here. The three of us are holding this meeting for something that happened in Stone City recently.” Seeing that everyone was here, the Invincible Fist Sage was the first to speak. The host of this conference was also the Invincible Fist Sage, so he was the first to speak.
“I believe everyone knows about the matter in Stone City now. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss a procedure. Some rules may have already become unsuited to the times. They must be changed!”
The Invincible Fist Sage’s tone was forceful, but in reality, this matter was indeed very important. There could be no mistake, as it concerned an important revolution in human society.
At this moment, the Polar Academy’s Sage Bingyu also said, “Back then, our agreement was to give the government faction some autonomy to exercise administrative rights and administer human society, to promote the development of human society. However, from the looks of it now, our decision back then has instead become a utopia for certain unambitious people. Such rules must be changed!”
Sage Bingyu was a female Sage, and the only female among the Nine Sages. However, no one dared to underestimate Sage Bingyu. She had advanced step by step from an ordinary martial artist to a Sage, and she was a legend in and of herself.
This was also how the Polar Academy became one of the top three academies in the world! Although Sage Bingyu was very old, she would not age at all because her life had undergone four transitions. Hence, she only appeared to be in her twenties or thirties, and was very beautiful.
“I also support reforming the government faction.”
The one who spoke was Sage Cass from the Sanctuary Academy, one of the three great academies. Sage Cass was also a Westerner. He was dressed elegantly and exuded a regal air like nobility.
In fact, Cass was born a Western noble and eventually became a Sage.
Although the Sanctuary Academy was closely related to the military and government, Sage Cass was not actually a Sage of the military or government faction.
It was only because the Sanctuary Academy had some cooperations with the military and the government. The Sages of the three top academies were on excellent terms with each other. Now that they were all insisting on the reform, they must already have communicated with each other beforehand.
Seeing that the three Sages of the academic faction had all firmly proposed to “reform”, all the Sages understood what the main topic of today’s meeting was: reform!
“Elder Kang, what do you think?”
The Invincible Fist Sage asked Sage Kang directly.
This Sage Kang was a Sage from the government faction. He looked a little old. Speaking of which, Sage Kang was the first Sage in the entire human race. Back then, he had undergone the fourth life transition when he was very old and became a Sage.
At that time, technology had just exploded, and humans were still discovering whether four life transitions was a possibility. Sage Kang was the one who forged a path for all martial artists.
Hence, all other eight Sages present were even his juniors.
However, Sage Kang was not the strongest among all the Sages. In fact, he was slightly weaker. Yet he was the most respected Sage.
The reform was mainly targeted at the government faction. Moreover, Sage Kang was the first Sage of humanity. His attitude was naturally crucial.
