Elf: How do you cultivate immortality in the elf world?

Chapter 438 When the Sun No Longer Appears and the Sun Tax.

“Necrozma differentiated from its own rules of light, giving birth to the Sun and Moon Gods, and then the authority of the Sun and Moon was derived.”

“Every time He reclaims the Sun and Moon Gods, it is equivalent to stealing a portion of the Sun and Moon Rules. More importantly, the Sun and Moon Rules strengthen the Rules of Light.”

"As the embodiment of the rules of light, His current strength is self-evident."

"This is not the most ingenious part of Necrozma's operation. The most ingenious part is that after He stripped away the rule of light, the rule of darkness, without the suppression of the rule of light, also grew extremely powerfully."

"Then that guy used the ultimate space to send small nebulae to various worlds, accelerating the development of the sun and moon rules in each world."

"This guy is like a farmer, constantly harvesting the rules of the sun and moon in various worlds through the ultimate world, thereby strengthening the rules of light."

"Moreover, light and darkness coexist. Every reversal of light and darkness strengthens the rules of darkness. This guy has really managed to exploit a bug in the world."

Talebagos's tone was full of admiration. These days, there are very few lives that can exploit bugs, and Necrozma is the most typical example.

"Can you still play like this?"

Groudon was deeply shocked.

Groudon exclaimed in sudden realization, "No wonder Zygarde didn't interfere, and even the two Time Gods only tried to stop him."

"What will happen to our world now? Without the sun and moon, it feels like the world is dying rapidly," Groudon asked worriedly.

As the god of the earth, He loves the lava deep underground, but He also loves the vibrant land.

If possible, He would not want the earth to lose its vitality.

Talebagos comforted him, "You don't need to worry about that. Humanity will find a way. With human wisdom, they should be able to find a way to temporarily replace the sun before the sun and moon gods return to their original positions."

As for the moon?

After observing the river of fate, Taleborg was certain that humanity had not found a way to temporarily replace the moon.

"Last time you made me believe in Lu Li's wisdom, and I believed you."

"Later, you tried to make me believe in the wisdom of the two gods of time and space, and I believed it too."

"Now you want me to believe in human intelligence?" Groudon looked at Talebagos with a "you're kidding me" expression.

Now He has discovered that this guy is truly unreliable, extremely unreliable.

Talebagos didn't explain, he just smiled meaningfully.

…………

Upon returning to the Lu family manor, Lu Li couldn't wait to take out the incubator and place Little Nebula's elf egg inside.

The current contest between the Sun and Moon gods is a test of time.

There aren't many small nebulae in the Sun and Moon Mystic Realms, and there's only one in the second stage of evolution, and it hasn't even reached its maximum growth limit.

What we need to do now is buy time, use the magic candy to level up the two little nebulae, and then seize the positions of the Sun and Moon Gods before the other little nebulae grow.

He has a unique advantage in this regard.

After all, he was the only one in the world who knew how to make the magic candy, and only he could provide enough magic candy to support the growth of the little nebulae.

More importantly, the people in the Sun and Moon Secret Realm are still unaware that their god has fallen.

Given the triple factors of information asymmetry, time asymmetry, and resource asymmetry, Lu Li simply couldn't find a reason to lose.

“Little guys, it’s your turn to shine now.” Lu Li activated the incubator.

Then he took out the remaining magical candies from his spatial ring and stuffed them all into the little nebula next to him.

The Magic Candy tastes amazing, and for Nebula, it's like a snack—you can never have too much.

After all, how could a child complain about having too many snacks?
Little Nebula needs 70 candies to reach the champion's limit, and his current supply of magical candies is definitely not enough, not to mention he also has two hungry little Nebulas.

Feeling that he was born to be busy, Lu Li reluctantly took out the Thousand-Faced God Mask.

After summoning the entrance to the secret realm, Lu Li decisively entered the realm to grind.

…………

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Since the day the sun disappeared, it has never risen again.

With the sun gone, the temperature around the world changes almost every day.

By the third day, the average temperature on the surface of Earth had approached zero degrees Celsius, even with Groudon driving the lava and causing Earth to heat up automatically.

On the first day, people didn't take it seriously.

They simply thought this was another act of divine rebellion, and that things would be fine once the gods left.

The next day, the major leagues around the world were in a bit of a panic.

The sun had not yet risen, but the deity had already departed.

By the third day, the major leagues finally realized that they might have lost the Sun forever.

If Earth were to lose its sun, it would mean that the entire world would return to an era of extreme cold, and that the entire world would no longer be suitable for humans and weak elves to survive.

this moment.

People finally came together.

The major alliances set aside their hatred and temporarily put aside their disputes, briefly coming together.

A global alliance conference, led by the five major alliances, was held in the New World.

Representatives from various alliances, as well as top aristocratic families, attended the meeting.

Because Lu Li was quite busy, Yao Yifei represented the Lu family at the meeting.

Yao Yifei sat in an inconspicuous spot, curiously observing the well-dressed politicians.

The entire conference room can be roughly divided into two categories of people.

The first category is politicians who are politically inclined, and the second category is trainers who are powerful.

"There are no fewer than ten master-level trainers. I'm afraid all the master-level trainers in the world have gathered here." Yao Yifei couldn't help but marvel.

The Dragon Throne asked with a chuckle, "Yifei, are you finding it difficult to adapt?"

Yao Yifei nodded somewhat embarrassedly.

"Just follow me for a bit. If there's anything you can't answer, just pass the question to this old man," the Dragon Throne reassured him.

"This……"

Yao Yifei was a little embarrassed.

The Dragon Throne said dismissively, "You just need to be grateful for this favor. In the Lu family, you just need to take good care of that girl, Xiao Ying."

"Hmm." Yao Yifei nodded, unsure how to answer.

"Elder Long, what do you think is the purpose of this meeting?" Yao Yifei asked in a low voice.

"According to reliable sources, the purpose of this meeting is likely to collect taxes," Dragon Throne replied in a low voice.

"Taxes?" Yao Yifei asked, his face full of confusion.

What kind of tax will they collect? It can't be a poll tax, can it? These five alliances aren't uniting just to exploit the poor, are they?
How much money do those ordinary people have? Is it really worth making such a big fuss about?

Seeing Yao Yifei's puzzled expression, Peng Chongshan, who was next to the Dragon Throne, explained with a smile, "It's the Sun Tax. You'll find out soon enough."

"Sun tax?" Yao Yifei was even more confused.

Now that the sun is gone, how can we collect taxes?

Is it...

As if struck by a sudden realization, Yao Yifei stared incredulously at the young man in the center of the meeting.

"The alliance has developed artificial sun technology?" Yao Yifei asked incredulously.

Without even thinking, the Dragon Throne immediately denied it, saying, "How could that be!"

"You'll see in a moment. All I can say is, never underestimate the power of the elves; they are the true masters of this world," Dragon Throne said meaningfully.

At this point, the meeting officially began.

At the beginning, it was just some meaningless speeches.

The speech was nothing more than a statement that humanity is now at a critical juncture of life and death, and that everyone should unite at this time.

Then, we thank the five major alliances for their efforts in gathering all the forces in the world.

The most outrageous thing was that Yao Yifei actually saw several representatives of dark organizations in the seats.

"This world is absolutely insane! Wolves are actually sitting together with sheep," Yao Yifei thought to himself.

After the speech, it was time to settle accounts with the perpetrators of this operation.

Lumina, the leader of the Aether Foundation, forcibly opened the Ultimate Wormhole, which led to Necrozma's destruction of the world. Lumina must bear full responsibility for this.

Lumina, sitting in the defendant's dock, was unimpressed.

Lumina said expressionlessly, "We have already paid the price."

“I’m talking about compensation!” the American Union representative interrupted coldly.

The representative of the Indian alliance excitedly stated, "That's right! The Ether Foundation must take full responsibility for this and compensate the entire world."

What followed was a chorus of agreement.

As the saying goes, when a wall is pushed down, everyone falls. The Aether Foundation, as the culprit, has now been caught red-handed and is on the verge of collapse. There are even big shots leading the charge.

Those behind will naturally swarm in, trying to get a share of the profits.

Lumina looked helplessly at the angry crowd in the meeting room.

When the America Alliance created the Tide of Death, why didn't you come out and demand compensation from the entire world?

They simply felt that the Xiaweiyi alliance was weaker and would be easy prey for them.

but……

A cold glint flashed in Lumina's eyes.

“Stop! What do you want?” Lumina asked wearily and helplessly.

Seeing that Lumina had yielded, the representative of the American Alliance quickly said, "The Xiaweiyi Alliance must hand over an island and its secret realm as a global public secret realm to compensate the world."

Upon hearing this, most people in the meeting room looked at Lumina with wolfish eyes.

Although the Xiaweiyi Alliance is small, even smaller than the Sanhou region, its resources are much richer.

Each of the four islands has four super-large secret realms, and each secret realm has a level three god. Most importantly, each secret realm is rich in Z crystals.

This is also the main reason why everyone is excited. Gods are high above, and even a third-level god is not someone they can afford to offend.

But Z-crystals are tangible resources.

“Your map is a bit short,” Lumina sneered, then lazily stood up from the defendant’s seat.

"Whether it's an island or a secret realm, they belong to the island god. The Ether Foundation doesn't have that right, and the Xia Weiyi Alliance has no right to decide who owns the islands and secret realms."

"so……"

Lumina's sharp gaze swept around the room.

“If you want it, you should ask Him.” As soon as Lumina finished speaking, a terrifying aura instantly chilled the entire conference room.

With flashes of light and electricity, an elf with a black body, orange hair and legs, and hands each consisting of half a shell with patterns printed on it appeared in the conference room.

Upon His appearance, an eerie silence instantly fell over the meeting room.

Some politicians with a lower tolerance for stress even swallowed hard, their eyes filled with fear.

Tapu Koko!
The god of war in the Xiaweiyi alliance, who also governs rainmaking, witchcraft, animal husbandry, and fishing.

Lumina, taking in the expressions and faces of everyone in the meeting room, also let out a cold and sarcastic smile.

A bunch of cowardly bullies!

Why aren't you calling it anymore?
Lumina was excitedly shouting in her heart, but she asked calmly, "Now, everyone, please have your requests."

"Ahem! Lumina, we didn't know that the masters of these secret realms were the island gods. If we had known earlier, we certainly wouldn't have said this." The president of the Kyushu Alliance quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.

The division of the Xiaweiyi alliance is a trivial matter; its success or failure is irrelevant.

The world is already in this state; if humanity were to confront the island gods, the world might be completely doomed.

Lumina knew this too; the reason she brought out Tapu Koko was to intimidate this group.

She has succeeded now.

Perhaps because she hadn't taken action for so long, people had forgotten that she was the chosen messenger of the four island gods.

In fact, it's not that people have forgotten, but rather that they have deliberately ignored it.

Neither the American Alliance nor the Indian Alliance anticipated that Lumina would actually summon a deity.

From the moment the gods interfere in the interests of mortals, all so-called conspiracies and schemes become a joke.

Just like this moment.

Tapu Koko snorted disdainfully, and knowing that its mission was complete, it disappeared from the spot.

He didn't want to stay in this incredibly filthy place, polluted by all sorts of emotions, for even a second.

After Tapu Koko left, the members of the five major leagues breathed a sigh of relief.

"Invoking the gods at the drop of a hat? These divine messengers are so damn rude!" the American Alliance representative roared angrily in his heart.

In the conference room, there were quite a few people who shared the same idea.

Despite their dissatisfaction, everyone tacitly skipped the topic of the Xiaweiyi Alliance compensating the world.

In order to prevent any further unexpected events from occurring at the meeting, the young man who had been living in the very center had to start working on the final agenda ahead of schedule.

The young man had fiery red hair, which made him look like a burning flame from a distance.

"Gentlemen, I am Tonatiu, a living traveler of the Aztec remnants from the Mysterious Realm," Tonatiu introduced himself.

"A remnant race from the secret realms of North America?" Yao Yifei looked at Tonatiu with curiosity.

Judging from the other person's appearance and temperament, the other person should be a fire-type trainer. As for their strength, Yao Yifei could not tell yet.

And most importantly, today's meeting seems to revolve around this Tonatiu.

Considering what Dragon Throne and the others had just mentioned about the Sun Tax, Yao Yifei had a rough idea in his mind.
