After the spiritual energy was restored: Goddess girlfriends came knocking.

That night, all the women crowded into the master bedroom.

Cang Yao hugged Lin Chu from behind, burying her face between his shoulder blades, her arms tightly around him.

Lin Chu turned around and patted her head.

"I'm fine, aren't I?"

Cang Yao didn't say anything, but just hugged him tighter.

Lin Chu knew what she was thinking.

When the Ant Immortal struck him today, Cang Yao was blocked by the Scorpion Immortal.

It was just a hair's breadth away.

"I'm fine." Lin Chu's voice was very soft as she placed her hand on the back of her head, gently stroking her hair.

"I know," Cang Yao said in a muffled voice, but she tightened her grip on his arm even more.

Ruoshui didn't sleep well either.

She rolled over and pressed herself against him from behind, her fox tail draped over Lin Chu's legs, her forehead against the back of his neck.

"My husband," her voice nasal, "if you die again today, I'll tear your bones apart and keep them with me every day."

Lin Chu was both amused and exasperated: "So ruthless?"

"That's ruthless." Ruoshui snorted.

Caiwei and Xiaoxiao remained silent.

Lin Chu glanced around and sighed.

We need to find a way to put their minds at ease.

He raised his right hand, a thought forming in his mind.

A soft golden light emerged from the palm of his hand.

After the golden light dissipated, a palm-sized amulet lay quietly in his hand.

"What is this?" Little Xiao was the first to sit up and peek over to look.

"Amulet for the People".

Lin Chu held up the talisman so that everyone could see it clearly.

"Its function is very simple."

"When I am attacked fatally, it will automatically trigger, block the blow for me, and then randomly teleport me to a safe place."

Cang Yao loosened her grip and looked up.

Ruoshui also propped up her upper body, her fox ears standing straight up.

"It's for saving my life." Lin Chu pinched Cang Yao's cheek. "That's why I said I won't die."

"real?"

"real."

Cang Yao pursed her lips, leaned back into his arms, and said in a muffled voice.

"My husband."

"Um."

"That kind of situation won't happen again," she paused, "today's situation."

"I know." Lin Chu ruffled her hair. "So you all need to remember, if you encounter something like this in the future, protect yourselves first."

Ruoshui also breathed a sigh of relief.

That night, the five of them slept together under the same quilt.

Ruoshui and Cangyao flanked Lin Chu from the left and right, allowing her to sleep soundly.

The next morning, Lin Chu sent a message to Lu Chenghong.

"I'm going to hold a meeting, and all the top officials from every country on Earth need to be present."

Lu Chenghong replied almost instantly.

"Understood, I'll arrange it right away."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Chu scrolled through her phone.

Unread messages have piled up to a mountain.

His phone hasn't stopped ringing since the last video was posted.

He was being messaged by distant relatives he had no connection with, elementary school classmates he hadn't contacted in ages, and even strangers who somehow got his number.

Some people asked him for favors, some tried to get close to him, and some even claimed to be his long-lost relatives.

On the contrary, the village chief and a few friends only asked a few questions at the beginning, and knowing that he was busy, they told him to be careful and then they didn't bother him again.

Lin Chu looked at the constant stream of pop-up messages and felt a headache coming on.

Looks like I'll have to find some time to change my phone number.

……

In the afternoon, Lin Chu led the women and Jiang Shouzhuo to the Federal Building.

The conference room was already full of people.

Representatives from all countries were present, without exception.

As soon as Lin Chu walked in, the entire room fell silent, and hundreds of eyes turned to look at him.

Joseph was the first to greet her, his eyes filled with excitement upon seeing Lin Chu: "Minister Lin!"

Lin Chuchao nodded to him: "How have you been lately?"

"Thanks to you, it's great!" Joseph grinned. "Ever since we saw your arrow, all those lads in our army have been training like their lives depend on it, all shouting that they want to be like you."

Lin Chu smiled, patted his shoulder, and walked onto the stage.

A crowd followed behind him.

Jiang Shouzhou, dressed in a gray sword robe, stood ramrod straight, his sword intent restrained, silently standing behind Lin Chu.

All eyes turned to them.

Lin Chu stood on the stage and looked around.

"I know that you have already heard a lot of news from many people outside the region."

His voice, imbued with spiritual power, clearly reached everyone's ears.

"But most of those messages are incomplete, so today I'll start with a basic explanation."

There were no opening remarks, and no pleasantries.

"The stages of cultivation, from lowest to highest, are: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Void Refinement, Body Integration, and Mahayana."

With each realm Lin Chu recited, the gazes of those below the stage grew more solemn.

"In most extraterrestrial worlds, the Mahayana stage is the pinnacle. With a long lifespan, one can govern a region and stand at the very top of the pyramid."

"Those two extraterrestrial cultivators who stormed the Federal Building last time were at the Mahayana stage."

"Those giant beasts are at the Integration Stage."

A low murmur arose from the audience.

Many people were hearing about such a complete cultivation system for the first time, and they all asked their companions to write it down.

Lin Chu and the others quieted down a bit and continued talking.

"I myself am currently at the Refinement of Emptiness stage."

"These people behind me."

He introduced the different levels of attainment of the women one by one.

"And this one."

Finally, he looked at Jiang Shouzhou.

"Jiang Shouzhou is also at the peak of Mahayana cultivation, and he is my good friend."

Each time a name was announced, the audience fell silent for a minute.

Jiang Shouzhou nodded slightly to the crowd below the stage as a greeting.

After a moment of silence, the meeting room erupted in chaos.

"Five...five peak Mahayana cultivators?"

"My goodness, isn't Mahayana Buddhism already at the top of the world's pyramid? We on Earth have five of them?"

"Minister Lin was only at the early stage of the Void Refinement realm, yet he blasted apart a cultivator at the Integration realm with a single arrow!"

"So, does that mean our Earth is invincible?"

"What foreign forces? We'll wipe them out one by one!"

Many people wore expressions of relief.

The leaders of various countries, who have been struggling to breathe under the pressure of various external threats, seem to have suddenly seen a glimmer of hope.

Many people had the same thought: With people like Minister Lin around, what is there to be afraid of on Earth?

The highest level is Mahayana, and we have five of them here.

Lin Chu looked at the expressions on the faces of the audience and knew what they were thinking.

"What I'm about to say is the main point of this meeting."

His tone turned somber.

"These past two days, I went to the city of the United Kingdom of Bharata."

Lin Chu looked in the direction of Deputy Prime Minister Bharata.

"The situation in the city is worse than people know."

"We encountered at least two earth immortals inside."

The entire venue was deathly silent.

"What is a terrestrial immortal?" someone asked in a low voice.

"Earth Immortal," Lin Chu said slowly, "is a realm that can only be reached after the peak of the Mahayana stage has transcended tribulation and ascended to immortality, originating from the Upper Realm."

"And from what I've observed, those two Earth Immortals are probably not the strongest among them."

After he finished speaking, the entire conference hall fell silent.

Those who had just thought Earth was invincible now looked paler than the last.

Deputy Prime Minister Bharata slumped in his chair.

He knew things were serious, but he didn't expect them to be this serious.

"However, there's no need to be too pessimistic." Lin Chu changed the subject. "Their 'Holy Mother' seems to be at a crucial moment and is temporarily unable to act. There won't be any major changes in the short term."

"What you need to do is seal off that area and not make any rash moves. If there is any unusual activity, notify me immediately."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

At this moment, a representative of the United States of America stood up.

"Minister Lin," he carefully chose his words, "since they're all in the same place, would it be effective to use high-yield nuclear weapons and drop them directly into the city?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Deputy Prime Minister Bharata's face turned ashen.

What kind of idea is it to drop a high-yield nuclear weapon on your own country's territory?

But when he opened his mouth, he found he had no power to refuse.

Of the major powers present, which one would take Bharata seriously?

He could only look at Lin Chu.

Lin Chu pondered for a moment.

To be honest, he wasn't sure either.

Whether a being at the level of a celestial immortal can directly withstand a high-yield nuclear bomb is uncertain without testing.

"Not for now." He shook his head. "Nuclear weapons should only be used as a last resort. We can discuss it when we really get to that point."

Deputy Prime Minister Bharata secretly breathed a sigh of relief and cast a grateful glance at Lin Chu.

The representative of the United States of America did not insist any further and sat back down.

Lin Chu took one last look around the room.

"There's one more thing."

"After observing for this period of time, we have found that the vast majority of us Blue Star people are capable of cultivation, and their talent is generally very high."

"The spiritual energy has only been recovering for a few months, and the countries present here already have Nascent Soul stage cultivators. In other worlds, such speed would be considered monstrous."

Joseph instinctively straightened his back.

"Therefore, starting today, all countries should fully cooperate and mobilize their entire populations to cultivate."

"It will only get more chaotic from now on. The more people who can cultivate, the more hope there is for survival."

"This is a crisis for Earth, but also a rare opportunity."

Everyone in the audience nodded in unison.

There were no objections, and no one asked "on what grounds?"

The facts are clear: whatever Lin Chu says is the truth.

Lin Chu will not participate in the specific plans, resource allocation, and division of labor among countries for the next stage of nationwide cultivation.

Let the professionals discuss these things.

He led everyone out of the conference hall, and behind them came the sounds of heated discussion; representatives from various countries had already begun to work against the clock to formulate a plan.
