Lin Dong impresses Dragon Venerable with his insightful perception and rapid cultivation. He then reveals that the Blood Ancestor has reappeared in the Extraterrestrial Battlefield, causing widespread destruction and the deaths of several seniors who sacrificed themselves to save Lin Dong.

"Lin Dong, elaborate on the situation."

The emergence of the Blood Ancestor, along with the fall of Yun Che, Tang Ying, and Tian Qiongzi, was too significant.

Even someone like the Dragon Venerable appeared thoroughly solemn at the moment.

Afterward, Lin Dong informed the Dragon Venerable about the events on the Extraterrestrial Battlefield.

Of course, it was impossible to recount everything; speaking for days and nights would not suffice.

He conveyed the matters concerning the emergence of the Blood Ancestor and the related battle to the Dragon Venerable.

Upon learning everything, the Dragon Venerable became even more grave.

"It seems the Blood Ancestor hasn’t yet returned to his peak. Once he does, will he declare war on our human warriors?" the Dragon Venerable said.

Lin Dong nodded, "Yes, he hasn’t regained his peak yet. Moreover, he hasn’t integrated all the forces from the Extraterrestrial Battlefield. So, he currently hasn’t launched an attack on us human warriors."

"He’s likely wary of our ancestor-level powerhouses."

"But once his strength returns to the peak and he consolidates the forces of the Extraterrestrial Battlefield, he will undoubtedly start an all-out war against us humans. At that time, the Human Martial Arts World will face a disaster."

The Dragon Venerable nodded slightly, speaking in a deep tone, "Lin Dong, in your estimation, how long will this take? How long will it take for the Blood Ancestor to recover his strength and integrate the forces of the Extraterrestrial Battlefield?"

"He’s been suppressed for so many years; his qi blood loss must be significant. It shouldn’t be easy to recover, right? It should take a long time, right?"

Lin Dong said, "I guess, at most one year. The Blood Ancestor will be back to his peak, as for integrating the forces of the Extraterrestrial Battlefield, who can withstand the sweep of an ancestor-level powerhouse?"

Hearing these words, the Dragon Venerable murmured, "One year, then..."

At this point, his expression suddenly changed, and he asked, "Lin Dong, beside you, who else escaped from the Extraterrestrial Battlefield?"

"Who else brought the news about the emergence of the Blood Ancestor?"

Lin Dong said, "Besides me, there are some people from the Dragon Country War Department, and Ye Linglong and others. But their transmitted positions should be far from Dragon Country. I guess they are currently heading here."

"As for other forces, it seems no one else brought this news out from the Extraterrestrial Battlefield."

"It seems I must inform the ancestor-level powerhouses urgently," the Dragon Venerable said.

Lin Dong nodded, "I came to visit the Hall of Fame Headquarters this time mainly to get the Venerable seniors to inform the leaders of the major forces about this matter."

"Convey the emergence of the Blood Ancestor to those ancestor-level powerhouses."

Those ancestor-level powerhouses rarely involve themselves in Martial Arts World matters, usually retreating to explore pathways beyond the ancestor level.

Otherwise, they cultivate; they barely reveal themselves. Even Lin Dong finds it challenging to meet them.

But the Dragon Venerable is different, not only is he strong, but his identity allows him to reach ancestor-level powerhouses.

He can relay messages to them.

This is why Lin Dong entrusted him with conveying this matter.

The matter is of utmost importance, to the extent that he almost forgot the original purpose of seeking Lin Dong this time.

Suddenly recalling this matter, he straightforwardly said, "Lin Dong, this time, our Hall of Fame is reaching out to you. We want to invite you to join our Hall of Fame Headquarters."

Lin Dong asked in confusion, "Did I not join before?"

He was already the War God of Dragon Country’s War Department, didn’t that count as joining the Battle Department Hall of Fame?

The Dragon Venerable shook his head, "No, previously you only joined the Dragon Country War Department. Our Hall of Fame is independent, a higher-level, more secretive organization."

"It belongs to Dragon Country Official, the most powerful force. Our organization has existed for thousands of years. Before the Dragon Country War Department was established, we already existed, though we were not called the Dragon Country Battle Department Hall of Fame but simply Dragon Country Hall of Fame."

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong nodded and said without much hesitation, "Alright, I’m willing to join."

Seeing this, the Dragon Venerable was even more pleased.

He nodded repeatedly and suddenly said, "Lin Dong, before you join our Dragon Country Battle Department Hall of Fame Headquarters, I have a few words to say to you."

Lin Dong felt moved and said, "Please speak, Venerable."

The Dragon Venerable nodded and said, "Do you know what is most important on the path of Martial Arts?"

Lin Dong pondered for a moment and said, "I believe on the path of Martial Arts, the most important thing is one’s resolve. Only with a steadfast heart can one avoid losing themselves on the path of cultivation and overcome numerous obstacles."

The elder’s eyes showed a trace of appreciation and said, "Well put. Resolve is indeed crucial. But besides that, there’s something else indispensable."

Lin Dong curiously asked, "May I ask, Venerable, what is it?"

The elder slowly said, "It is responsibility. As a martial artist, one bears the responsibility of guarding the homeland and protecting the people. Only with this responsibility remembered in the heart can one go further on the path of Martial Arts."

Lin Dong’s heart trembled, remembering the seniors who sacrificed for him, and those whose names he couldn’t even recall.

He saw those people’s blood and the brutality of the Blood Clan.

If the Blood Clan were to utterly defeat the human warriors, what would the future of humanity look like?

Perhaps, like livestock such as pigs and cows, they would be treated as food, raised with no rights.

Lin Dong did not want to see this scene occur.

He clenched his fist and took a deep breath, saying, "Venerable, your guidance is inscribed on my heart. I will take protecting Dragon Country as my duty!"

The elder nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very good. From today on, you are a member of our Hall of Fame Headquarters."

"Next, let Ni Huang briefly explain some matters about the Hall of Fame to you. I must immediately go and inform the ancestor-level powerhouses of the major forces about the emerging threat of the Blood Ancestor and the Extraterrestrial Battlefield."

"Let all major forces prepare for the upcoming catastrophe."

With that, he hurriedly left.

When he was gone, Ni Huang looked at Lin Dong and said, "Lin Dong, welcome to our Dragon Country Battle Department Hall of Fame."

This time, Ni Huang was evidently different from before.

She was much warmer than just now, as if they were truly on the same team after Lin Dong joined the Hall of Fame.

She extended her hand for a handshake with Lin Dong.

Lin Dong smiled, shook hands with her, then asked, "Ni Huang, I’d like to know more about the Hall of Fame. Can you tell me?"

Since joining the Hall of Fame, Lin Dong naturally wanted to learn more about it.

Including the key members of the organization and the responsibilities it entails.
