Eternal life begins with saving my clan

The Resistance spread like wildfire throughout the Soaring Cloud Region.

In addition, the four other regions in the kingdom witnessed the rise of The Resistance faction, urging people to stop using the Spirit Comms.

As The Resistance gained recognition among the populace, the imperial capital wasn't spared.

Eventually, a seed of The Resistance sprouted there, growing rapidly to number in the thousands.

With each passing day, the number of Resistance members increased across the kingdom.

Despite their rapid growth, the Celestial Heavenly Store made no statement, shocking everyone.

With the store remaining silent, The Resistance grew bolder and began attacking people using the Spirit Comms.

Within days, the Soaring Cloud Region was thrown into chaos.

Smaller towns with branches of the Celestial Heavenly Store were attacked.

Unfortunately for The Resistance, the store was prepared, and the Adventurers Guild defended each branch.

However, instead of ceasing their attacks, The Resistance became fiercer.

They demanded that village and town chiefs destroy the store's branches or face having their settlements set ablaze.

When the village and town chiefs tried to pacify The Resistance, it only enraged them further.

What followed was arson, riots, and widespread destruction.

It was utter chaos.

With the rising threat of The Resistance, many people sought to leave the Soaring Cloud Region—now deemed "The Hot Zone."

Only then did they realize they would need to face the infamous Crimson Shadow Bandits at the borders.

The realization of their perilous situation hit hard: they were under siege.

The situation quickly turned from bad to worse. The Resistance grew emboldened, killing anyone associated with the store or using the Spirit Comms.

Desperate, people pleaded with the store for help, but the store remained silent.

This shocked the terrified populace.

Why wasn't the store coming to their aid?

Could the rumors be true? Were they demons in disguise?

Were they evil beings using the people as blood sacrifices?

On You Connect, people voiced their complaints and blamed the store for their dire circumstances.

In Clear Wind City, the headquarters of the Celestial Heavenly Store, everything remained peaceful.

The Resistance operated cautiously, acting only in the shadows.

While other cities were not as calm as Clear Wind City, they weren't as chaotic as the towns and villages.

The Celestial Heavenly Store's presence was still dominant in the cities.

Thus, The Resistance remained cautious.

However, the people in the cities were deeply worried as reports of increasing attacks on nearby towns and villages surfaced.

No one knew when The Resistance might unleash their fury on the cities.

When powerful clan leaders convened with city lords to request aid against the uprising, the lords responded that only the store could provide the necessary assistance.

Thus, all hope rested on the store.

With each passing day, the threat from The Resistance grew, and tensions in the cities escalated.

Then came another blow: news of the sudden arrival of a Necoris army at the border.

This was no ordinary army but an elite force.

The weakest among them were Tier-2 warriors, while the strongest were Tier-5 Necoris.

Leading the campaign were two colossal Tier-5 Necoris warriors.

This was the first time humans had encountered Tier-5 Necoris.

Previously, during wars between humans and Necoris, only Tier-4 Necoris were deployed.

This had led humans to believe that Tier-4 warriors were the strongest among the Necoris.

Now, they realized just how naive and weak their assumptions had been.

If the Necoris had deployed Tier-5 warriors earlier, no city could have withstood their might. Even the surrounding regions were scared silly.

Quickly, they close their doors and send their soldiers to defend the borders from any unforeseeable action. They dare not underestimate a Tier-5 Necoris.

With the arrival of the Necoris, The Resistance's voices grew louder, blaming the store for their predicament.

The previously quiet cities saw surges of Resistance members taking to the streets, demanding the store's destruction.

With the Necoris advancing rapidly, they believed this was their chance to destroy the store once and for all.

Thousands of people flooded the streets, demanding the immediate dismantling of the Celestial Heavenly Store.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

They gathered their Spirit Comms devices and deposited them in piles outside the store.

They would have attacked the store if not for the fearsome martial artists guarding it.

However, the situation in villages and towns was far worse.

The Resistance had taken over nearby towns and villages, destroying store branches and killing anyone with a Spirit Comms device.

In the imperial capital, Jin Chang sat on his throne, reading the latest reports from the Soaring Cloud Region.

He grinned from ear to ear.

"Hahaha! Let's see how you turn this around," he laughed, his voice echoing through the quiet palace hall.

He couldn't wait to destroy the Celestial Heavenly Store and show the world how mighty he was. Thinking of this, a sardonic smile crept up his face.

"With the people demanding their destruction, it's only a matter of time before the store becomes a thing of the past," he mused, stroking his short beard.

"Before their fall, I must obtain the secret behind the magical ring."

"Humph! Remnots must be a fool if he thinks I'll share the secrets of the Spirit Comms with him."

To Jin Chang, the allure of gold wasn't just for wealth—it was for freedom and power.

For both kings, the people of the human race were merely disposable pawns.

The people thought The Resistance stood for justice.

But how ignorant and naive could they be?

Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.

Soon enough, they would realize the cost of their actions.

Suddenly, amidst the turmoil, many users of the Spirit Comms found their devices rendered inactive.

They were barred and rendered useless.

Before losing access, they received a bold red notification:

YOU'VE BEEN MARKED.

Among the Resistance and those hiding from the conflict, fear gripped their hearts like a vice.

Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.

In the Soaring Cloud Region and beyond, those who conspired against the Celestial Heavenly Store awaited the consequences of their actions — obliteration
