Jiang Feng’s announcement had caused a great commotion.
To the members of the Shifter Faction, they were still not powerful enough. It would be a bit too rushed if they were to start the Great Divine-Infernal War in three months.
Xue Yingqi then said, “Isn’t it a bit too rushed? We’ll be fine if all we’re fighting against are the Divines and Infernals. However, we can’t even resist Tathagata’s faction.”
As long as he could gather the Primordial Divine Artifacts or the Primal Divine Artifacts, it might be possible for him to deal with Tathagata.
What he needed to do was to find a way to possess True Chi within the Great World of Tianji.
True Chi was the key for him to control the Primordial Divine Artifact and the Primal Divine Artifact. As long as he could activate their true powers, he might be able to deal with Tathagata even if he was slightly weaker than him.
“Hm? Why is she looking for me?” Suddenly, he received a message, and he became suspicious.
After giving a brief explanation to everyone, his figure then disappeared in front of everyone.
Looking at the disappearing Jiang Feng, Xue Yingqi was quite speechless as she complained, “Seriously. There he goes again, leaving all the work to us. He’ll disappear all of a sudden just like that every time!”
Mu Xi and the others merely let out a sour smile, obviously already quite used to Jiang Feng going missing like that.
***
The temple, where the Lord God of Divine Dominion was staying.
He was just telling everyone about preparing for the Great Divine-Infernal War when the Lord God Ling Luo sent him a message.
She summoned him to her temple.
Once he appeared in the temple, he then looked at Lord God Ling Luo and asked, “Why’re you looking for me?”
The moment he saw Lord God Ling Luo, he then remembered the Shifter Knight Ling Luo among his Twelve Knights of Despair.
They looked like each other. Actually, they looked exactly like each other. Even their names were the same. Only their temperaments were different.
He suspected that both the Ling Luos were the same.
Before the existence of duplicates and simulacrums, he had never thought about it. But when he noticed that he could create duplicates once he had reached the power of a Heavenly Saint, he believed that both of them might be one and the same.
Ling Luo should be Lord God Ling Luo’s duplicate.
Looking at Lord god Ling Luo, he felt like summoning the Shifter Knight Ling Luo over to confront her.
But he gave up after giving it some thought.
Even if the Shifter Knight Ling Luo was Lord God Ling Luo’s duplicate, it might be better for him not to reveal it at all. Since he might be given some special treatment with Lord God Ling Luo’s duplicate as his follower.
If he were to reveal it and Lord God Ling Luo decided to take back her duplicate, not only would he lose a powerful follower, he would even lose Lord God Ling Luo’s protection. The loss would be too much for him to bear.
Lord God Ling Luo looked at Jiang Feng with a frown. “Shifter Emperor, do you know that you have made a very stupid decision?!”
Ling Luo’s words made Jiang Feng very confused. “What do you mean?”
Why would she do that? Did she summon him all the way here just to berate him? They were not that closed, alright?
Lord God Ling Luo then explained, “What you said has set a timer to the beginning of the Great Divine-Infernal War. Because of what you said to Tathagata, it has brought forward the Great Divine-Infernal War. Do you know how many people will die because of you? What you did will cause the entire Divine Dominion to be reset!”
“What do you mean?” Jiang Feng was still quite confused.
“What I mean is that once the war is over, the game will be reset and updated. At that time, no matter how high your accomplishments are at the Great War of Tianji, you will no longer gain any player slots. That means that the Divine Dominion can only send around a hundred players to the Great World of Tianji. With only a hundred players, when the competition between planets begins, we will be at a great disadvantage. All of them may die there!”
Ling Luo once again leaked information about the Great World of Tianji to Jiang Feng. Maybe it was because she was too angry.
A contest between planets?
He had never heard of such a competition when he was in the Great World of Tianji. That meant that it was something new that would be introduced to the game.
If that was the case, then it would be terrible.
If the entire Earth only had a hundred players who were able to go in at that time, there would be no doubt that they would all be slaughtered!
He finally knew why Ling Luo was angry.
If it was him, he would be angry too. It was obvious that the 100 players would be sent to their deaths. And they were the most powerful elites from either Divine Dominion or Earth.
“Do you know why there would be so few player slots for Earth? To the point where there are no player slots to enter the Great World of Tianji?”
“Are you saying that there was a similar battle in the Great World of Tianji too? And all the elites were killed?”
“Not all. There are several left, but they are at the bottom of the ranking. The player slots used to enter the Great World of Tianji were removed. I was hoping that you could get into the top ten and get us the authority to develop the terminals. If that is the case, we can then enter the Great World of Tianji directly using the terminal. There would be no limit to the player slots as well so that we can get even better rankings in the future contest. But with what you did, there goes all my plans.”
Jiang Feng was embarrassed. “Alright, I’ll do my best to get you more player slots within the next three months.”
The only way to salvage this was to use the remaining three months before the Great Divine-Infernal War began to get more player slots so that they would not be in such an awkward position when those from Divine Dominion and Earth could enter the Great World of Tianji.
“Right, there is something I need to let you know as well,” Ling Luo suddenly remembered something and said to him, “While I am the Lord God of this game, there are some settings that I can no longer change since Tianji has begun to intervene. If not, we would not be able to link up with the Great World of Tianji.”
“Main point, please!”
“I can only tell you this much. Tathagata wanted to enter the Great World of Tianji, but he didn’t manage to and he was severely injured!” Ling Luo then waved her hand and sent Jiang Feng out of the temple.
***
Once he was back in Tianyu City, Jiang Feng stood there and began to think.
Tathagata wanted to enter the Great World of Tianji but failed. Instead, he suffered a great injury!
He finally understood why Tathagata had always used his duplicates instead of his main body. His main body was still recovering and could not be moved. Or it was better to say that it could not fight.
As for why he was wounded, it had to be similar to Voldemort.
However, Voldemort was much more fortunate. While he was injured, he still managed to get to the Great World of Tianji. Tathagata was a bit more unfortunate. Not only did he fail, but he was also grievously wounded.
And he understood from Ling Luo’s words.
The reason that Ling Luo told him that was to tell him since the Great Divine-Infernal War had been brought forward, he must fight before Tathagata has fully recovered. Since the war was going to begin earlier, he should not care that much about the exact date. If not, it was very possible that he might fail.
While he did not know what good would Tathagata’s death bring to Ling Luo, all he needed to know was that Ling Luo was on his side.
As for whether he should go kill Tathagata once he had reached another breakthrough, Jiang Feng felt that he should wait until he could see how powerful he was when he had become a Mythic Saint.
If he were to go and kill Tathagata just like that, he might accidentally get himself killed instead.
“Sigh… Why am I such a blabbermouth? Looks like there’s going to be a lot of work to do. I thought that I was already quite overpowered, why are there so many others even more overpowered?” He shook his head and sighed after giving it some thought.
Heifeng, who was munching his chicken drumstick when he walked past him, could not help but roll his eyes when he heard it!
