My Fierce Tigress Wife

Numerous agreeing responses rang out.

Very soon, the entire country’s power was deployed.

​​ 

Weapons that people knew of and didn’t know of were activated and pointed towards all parts of the world.

At the same time, the major countries also did the same.

Compared to China, they were even less confident and much more worried.

On the other hand, the numerous small and medium countries suddenly experienced instability and social upheaval to the point of causing the countries to crumble.

It was because everyone knew very well what a drastic increase in spiritual energy represented: stronger invaders that made surviving even harder… as well as nuclear attacks from fellow humans.

The desperation of humans intensified, leading to an escalation of the chaos.

On the second day that the spiritual energy increased, India fired two nuclear weapons. One of the targets was within its territory, and the other was outside of India.

At the same time, Russia fired three nuclear weapons. One of them was within its territory, and the other two were outside of Russia.

On the fifth day…

The major countries once again fired eight nuclear weapons at the same time.

On the seventh day…

A total of 11 nuclear weapons were fired.

On the 10th day…

Six nuclear weapons were fired.

On the 11th day, the increase in spiritual energy ended, and five nuclear weapons were fired.

In the short span of 10 days, a total of 35 nuclear weapons were fired all around the world.

Two small countries were wiped out as a result, and more than 700,000 humans died. More than 10 different places were also wrecked.

The entire world fell into greater chaos, and protests were sounded all around.

In the capital of China…

Dong Pingtao and the other senior government officials looked on with a grave expression.

“Leader, Cabinet Elders, as of now, our country’s spiritual energy density level has reached the tenth stage of the Third Realm. This is a very dangerous level.

“Which means any being that is as powerful as the tenth stage of the Third Realm is able to enter our country freely through world passages from alternate worlds.

“A being as powerful as that is rare even in the alternate worlds. They would be a Divine Body Realm that has undergone the nine rounds of metamorphosis and whose divine body’s growth has progressed up to 90%…

“Or a Divine Body Realm that went through eight rounds of metamorphosis and whose divine body is perfected.

“Hence, to put it in another way, almost all the Divine Body Realms of the universe can enter China through world passages.

“The limit of world passages is now no longer applicable to Divine Body Realms.”

An elderly in a white robe said solemnly to Dong Pingtao and the others through a video.

The explanation was very clear, and all the cabinet elders understood. Their expressions became even grimmer.

Seeing that no one spoke, the elderly in white robes continued to speak: “Outside of China, the spiritual energy density level has reached the fifth stage of the Third Realm.

“Based on our calculations, this is also a very dangerous level.

“There is another very important point. The drastic increase in spiritual energy density has led to many things being changed. Many technological aspects require adjustments, and research and development need to start afresh.

“As for weapons, their power is maintained, but we should also be prepared early.”

The elderly continued for a while more. Finally, he nodded and ended the video call after Dong Pingtao said: ‘Every one of you has worked hard.’

It was silent for two seconds… until an elderly said, “After the increase of spiritual energy density, the land size of our country has increased by one-fifth again.

“The mountains and the rivers are also expanding, but we do not have precise figures yet.

“The good news is that, like before, these increases seem to have a consciousness of its own, and they do not damage our existing infrastructure.

“Our cities and roads were not damaged at all.”

He paused and spoke again, “There are about 86,000 people who have activated various kinds of supernatural powers this time.

“Based on calculations, there are about 68,000 people who broke through the Transformation Realm, and 265 people who broke through the Divine Body Realm with this opportunity.

“Many more people are also in the process of trying.

“At the same time, there is an abnormality. The effect of the spiritual power nourishment on animals was much smaller in comparison.

“Seems like the spiritual power nourishment this time applied only to humans—no, I should say that it applied only to us Chinese.

“Even the foreigners in China do not seem to see the same effect as our own citizens.

“The secretariat speculated that these abnormalities were related to those three tombs.

“Or to make a bolder speculation, it’s related to our ancestors.”

Upon hearing this, one of the elderly said with resignation, “If that is true, what exactly do our ancestors want to do?”

“Let me continue. In the tomb of Wang Yangming, the same quote was found: ‘I could not resist the extraterrestrial demons; hence, I leave behind my legacy.’

“The extent of the legacy this time is very huge and spans across many aspects. Not only is there knowledge about cultivation, but there are also legacies about alchemy, crafting, military strategies, and so on.

“Based on initial findings, the profoundness is even deeper than Zhang Juzheng’s legacy.

“Apart from these, the most important thing is the situation of the world today. We cannot wait any longer.

“If we do not resolve it now, the world will truly end in mayhem.”

Silence followed again.

Even if everyone present were people who have been through numerous storms, they still felt helpless and did not know where or how to start handling the chaos of a never-before-seen magnitude.

It was too difficult.

“Should we continue with the Unification into One Plan?” Zhang Jianye asked apprehensively.

“The purpose of the Unification into One Plan is to absorb the population and talent of different countries to strengthen China.

“We don’t want the land, we only want the people. Based on the panic that all the different countries are experiencing, we could give it a try.

“But how many people can we accommodate with our expanded territory?

“Also, the problems that might arise after these people enter China could possibly cause unforeseeable and disastrous outcomes.

“This is much tougher than when we absorbed North Korea. I think that it’s not a good time to carry out the Unification into One Plan,” Li Aimin said sternly.

Still, no solution was raised after more than 10 minutes of discussion.

“Let’s wait for a while more. China can’t do it alone either. We would have to work with the other major countries,” eventually, Dong Pingtao said.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

“I just hope that the world will regain peace somewhat,” Chen Jianguo sighed and exclaimed.

Unfortunately, in the following month, not only did the world not regain peace, but it turned even more chaotic.

Many more world passages emerged in addition to the world passages that already existed.

More and more invaders appeared; there was an innumerable amount of Second Realms, and the number of Third Realms also made all the countries feel their hairs stand on end.

They had no choice but to continue using nuclear weapons.

In a month, all the countries used a total of 365 nuclear weapons.

Apart from China, other countries—including India—suffered nuclear attacks.

All the countries suffered heavy losses.

However, the invasion continued, and it became incessant.

There seemed to be no end in sight.

The Earth and human society changed tremendously after a month.

All the countries including China and India went through many changes, including ones in thoughts.

On a video conference by the five major countries, the few leaders looked extremely grave.

“Gentlemen, we can’t go on like this anymore. If we don’t change now, we will be worn down so much by the damned invaders until we all die,” Bay said loudly.

“It’s easy to say that we want to change, but how should we change?” the US leader said.

Bay looked at the other four with a solemn and piercing gaze, appearing to have made an important decision. He then said firmly, “Give up part of Earth to those damned invaders and let them fight among themselves.

“Withdraw our forces, maintain the few major countries as the core, and absorb the people of the small and medium countries.”

After he finished, the other four people did not appear to be surprised. They seemed to already know of this suggestion.

After a few seconds, Te Bajing said solemnly, “It’s easy to say, but what happens if those Divine Body Realms enter Earth and then come and destroy our country?”

“Even if we stop them now, how much longer can we keep on stopping them?” Bay retorted.

His voice turned firmer as he said, “We give up a part of Earth, so those damned invaders won’t focus on us all the time. There are so many other alternate worlds; they can invade wherever they want to.

“If we continue like this—to fight against all the numerous alternate worlds that want to invade Earth… very soon, we will be worn down until we all perish.

“Everyone, do we really want to continue like this?”

“This is too huge. Just the matter of absorbing the people from small and medium countries alone will easily cause the whole world to be in havoc,” the leader of Iran said solemnly.

“To concede and suffer momentarily is necessary. We need to have enough population, talent, and time to strengthen ourselves.

“This is the only way for humanity to survive.

“I believe that this is the right way,” Bay said firmly.

“There are too many things involved. We can’t just make decisions like this so simply,” the Iran leader said sternly.

“Then, until when must we wait to decide?” Bay retorted, feeling dissatisfied.

…

After a discussion that was more heated than usual, the video conference ended, but nothing significant was decided.

The chaotic and savage situation continued.

Nuclear weapons continued to be fired almost every day, killing an innumerable amount of people and wiping out a country every few days as a result.

The Earth entered its most devastating period since the awakening of spiritual energy.

Another month later…

In the Tiger King’s Cave, Wang Hu—who had been paying attention to the world’s changes—received a call from Dong Pingtao.

“Your Excellency, excuse me for calling.” Dong Pingtao’s voice sounded unmistakably tired.

“Why did you call?” Wang Hu was direct as usual, and he asked coldly.

“I made this call to inform Your Excellency that the human countries can’t hold it out any longer,” Dong Pingtao said sternly.

Wang Hu’s brows furrowed. He did not say anything and continued to listen quietly.

Dong Pingtao continued to say, “Recently, there are more and more world passages, and the invaders are getting stronger and stronger. We have already fired almost a thousand nuclear weapons—killed hundreds of Third Realms and numerous Second Realms.

“But we are still unable to withstand the invasion of alternate worlds. There are still some Third Realms from alternate worlds who have entered Earth…

“And they even won the support of some small countries.”

As he said, his voice became more solemn.

Wang Hu did not see that coming, but he quickly understood why.

It was not incredulous for small and medium countries, which might perish anytime, to seek support from powerful beings from the alternate world.

In face of the crisis of their homes and countries perishing, things like having a common human race were nothing but rubbish; surviving was the priority.

“Therefore, all the major countries cannot sustain it anymore. If we continue to tough it out like this, more than half of the world’s countries would break apart.

“All the major countries are also unable to continue sustaining such losses.

“We have already discussed it many times. If nothing goes wrong, we will be finalizing everything in two more meetings.

“We will give up a part of Earth, maintain the major countries as the core, absorb the population of small and medium countries into entering the major countries, and form an alliance.

“The tiger species is also a part of Earth, so we would like to invite you, the Tiger King, to join the meeting this time.”

Dong Pingtao said in earnest.

Wang Hu was silent for a few seconds, and thoughts quickly flashed through his mind. He said coolly, “I’m not interested in such meetings.”

Dong Pingtao sighed upon hearing this but did not continue to persuade him.

He paused and said, “Your Excellency, please allow me to apologize on behalf of the humans, we eventually did not manage to defend a complete Earth.”

“That’s not necessary. You should be thinking about the things that will follow,” Wang Hu said coolly.

Without saying anything further, the phone call ended.

Dong Pingtao heaved a sigh. The matters waiting ahead felt daunting even for him.

However, he had to do what needed to be done.

In the Tiger King’s Cave…

Wang Hu put away his phone and looked at Silly Girl who was also looking at him. He said with a solemn voice, “The humans are retreating.”

“I heard,” Di Baijun said seriously.

“This is their only way out. If they continue like this, they would have to face all the invading alternate worlds.

“The spiritual energy density level is increasing too drastically, and it cannot give them much time to grow before they are faced with all of those.

“If this continues, the small and medium countries would break apart, causing the world to fall into chaos. The major countries won’t be able to sustain for long as well,” Wang Hu elaborated, appearing to be talking to Di Baijun and to himself as well.

The solemnness on his face unconsciously became more and more intense.

Five days after Dong Pingtao called Wang Hu…

Another world conference involving all the different countries was held again.

Russia suggested that the major countries should gather the population of all countries, form smaller countries in the territories of major countries, and smaller countries should build alliances with major countries like the China Alliance.

The suggestion was supported by the other major countries.

Immediately, the announcement was made to the whole world.

The world was swept with furor. This move that would indisputably change the world was decided just like that?

It was unthinkable.

However, with the chaos happening around the world, everyone readily accepted it.

Immediately after, everyone started to move. All the human countries became incredibly hectic, and the major countries quickly formed alliances with one small and medium country after another.

It also became a process of gaining a mutual understanding of each other’s considerations.

‘Does this major country favor this small or medium country?’

‘Does this small or medium country favor this major country? Which major country do they wish to join?’

The problems that arose were innumerable and varied.

At the same time, nuclear weapons were still being fired every day. At least, they had to drag it on for a while more to allow the small and medium countries to join the major countries.

Furthermore, the powerful beings from alternate worlds were absolutely barred from appearing near the vicinity of major countries.

The state of turbulence continued all around the world.

In the blink of an eye, six months passed, and most of the world’s population gathered to form 12 countries that existed in the form of alliances.

They were namely the China Alliance, Russia Alliance, India Alliance, Iran Alliance, US Alliance, Germany Alliance, Pakistan Alliance, Australia Alliance, Japan Alliance, South Korea Alliance, Africa Alliance, and the Italy Alliance.
