The Fourth Prince believed that with just the information on the Divine Sun Emperor’s treasures alone, the various major influences invited by Duan Tianhao would send representatives over. This was the first time the strongest few influences in this world would be meeting.
It was especially true for the plains and the Empire, the Mage Association and the Church of Universal Truth, as well as the many countries in the north that was under the Church’s rule. There were countless deep and great feuds between these factions, and now that they were going to meet, they might just end up breaking out in a brawl.
The thought of all the complications involved made the Fourth Prince’s head ache.
The most crucial thing was that even though the Empire now had the help from the Black Mage King and Gold Mage King, they still had no means to take charge of the situation. Just the thought of the many Guardian Kings from the Church made his scalp turn numb.
“What is this Duan Tianhao trying to do? To think that he is calling together so many experts in the land… Is he so unafraid of death?”
The Fourth Prince still could not understand why Duan Tianhao was trying to do this. The consequence of calling together so many top notch influences from across the land was not something that Duan Tianhao would be able to handle.
This also made it hard for the Fourth Prince to guess what Duan Tianhao’s goal was.
Just then, the Fourth Prince felt his vision turn blurry, and a hint of surprise immediately flashed on his face. “Xingjian!”
Fang Xingjian’s appearance before him naturally meant that he had cleared the trial successfully.
At the thought of this, a hint of disbelief flashed in his eyes. “You…”
“I’ve succeeded,” Fang Xingjian said with a nod. “Have there been any major events recently?” Fang Xingjian asked this because he possessed the Sudden Inspiration and yet he had not sensed any of the people close to him running into any danger. That was why he came to ask the Fourth Prince.
The Fourth Prince exhaled and suddenly seemed relaxed. With Fang Xingjian having made a breakthrough to tier six of the Divine Country, it meant that the entire Empire would become stable as well. With such a great pillar supporting the country, what was there for them to be afraid of?
…
Concurrently, in the plains, there was a stretch of barren land that had no hint of greenery, just crushed rock. On the gritty wasteland, there was only one huge stone pillar which towered into the sky. It pierced toward the sky like a sharp sword, filled with a bleak and unyielding will.
At the very top of the stone pillar, Duan Tianhao looked down coldly on the vast land. Waves flowed in his eyes as unknown thoughts ran through his mind.
Behind him, his younger sister Duan Ziyan looked at him with a worried expression. “Brother, are you really going to do this?”
Ever since Duan Tianhao’s and Duan Ziyan’s clan had been wiped out, they went to a piece of forbidden land to seek the assistance of the Plenary Foundation Septet’s fat priest.
Duan Tianhao had accepted the priest’s transmission of his martial arts through his will. He had opened up the Spiritual Root in his body and started cultivating the Astral Translocating Art.
Everything he had done so far was to seek revenge from Tyrant and Fang Xingjian.
Hearing Duan Ziyan’s concern, Duan Tianhao smirked and said, “Master and the other five Martial Uncles have all escaped. After their cultivations have recovered, who in this world can be a match for them?”
Six tier six Divine level experts… Duan Tianhao could not think of anyone who could be a match for them. This was especially so when the Plenary Foundation Septet’s leader was also going to break out from the confinement soon. With that, there would be no one in the who could stop them now.
Duan Ziyan said worriedly, “But the Church of Universal Truth and the Mage Association are both influences with a strong background. The 12 Mage Kings, 21 Guardian Kings, and the three Saints… There are so many experts taking charge, and they might even be hiding countless fatal attacking means.”
“So what?” Duan Tianhao said proudly, “Master and the others are all tier six Divine level experts. Just one of them alone is enough to wipe out the entire world.
“Before absolute strength, what does it matter if one’s background is extremely strong or if their inherited legacies ran through a long course of history? Tier six Divine level existences are so powerful that other experts aren’t a match for them.
“In the past, important characters like Adam and the Formidable Divine King managed to seal them. But at present, where are they going to find another Saint Adam or Formidable Divine King? The Church of Universal Truth doesn’t even have a Pope right now.
“Hmph, if it wasn’t because of the Sudden Inspiration senses of those people, a great turbulence would have already run through the entire world.”
At the thought of this, an eerie gleam flashed in his eyes. They had dodged the various experts’ Sudden Inspiration senses in order not to expose their strength in advance and inadvertently alert the enemy, as well as for the sake of completing their plans.
Even when Tyrant came to the plains, his Master had not killed Tyrant, merely chasing him back.
Each time Duan Tianhao thought of this, he felt so bad like his heart was being bitten by a venomous snake.
“But all those powers belong to other people. Moreover, those couple of old men tend to be extreme and vicious in their actions. They will be unscrupulous in order to achieve the ends that they want. This time around, in order to save their leader, they are going to offer so many experts as a blood sacrifice,” Duan Ziyan said with a frown. “Brother, they are just using you.”
“So what if they are using me?” Duan Tianhao said, smiling coldly. “Without them I wouldn’t be able to take revenge even if I were to cultivate another 100 or even 1,000 years.
“However, right now, I just have to wait for the plan to be completed, and I’ll be able to crush Tyrant and Fang Xingjian as easily as I would a bug.”
At the thought of this, a hint of exhilaration flashed on Duan Tianhao’s face. It seemed as if he could already see the scene in which he would take revenge and bathe the Imperial Capital in blood.
“Sister, don’t worry. This time around, the six great tier six Divine level experts are making a move together and are even opening up a small world in advance to avoid the others’ Sudden Inspiration senses. Even the Church of Universal Truth and the Mage Association won’t be able to stop them in time.
“And when the day comes that the Crown Prince is released, who in this world will be their match?”
The person referred to as Crown Prince was clearly the leader of the Plenary Foundation Septet.
Hearing Duan Tianhao’s words, Duan Ziyan sighed, “Brother, you’re betraying the entire world in order to seek revenge for our clan. When the seventh onslaught comes, who will be able to stop it then?”
When he heard Duan Ziyan’s words, a hint of savageness flashed on Duan Tianhao’s face. “Betray? When our Four Seasons Villa was wiped out by that Traitor Fang, who stepped forth to speak for us?
“When we were struggling to escape, hiding from the East Military Execution Order’s pursuits… Who was there to help us out?
“As long as I can take revenge, I won’t care even if the world is wiped out and destroyed.
“Moreover, we are the descendents of the Western Land to begin with. What does it matter to us regardless of what happens to this continent?”
Duan Ziyan looked at Duan Tianhao and sighed softly. He was now further and further away from the elder brother in her memories.
Simultaneously, in a small world that was parallel to Miracle World…
The fat priest grinned, and all the fats on his body trembled intensely. “Everything is prepared, and we’re just lacking the last thing. I didn’t make the wrong choice in choosing Duan Tianhao.”
Another priest who was covered in layers of long robes all over stood before the fat priest and said coldly, “Why do we have to go through so much trouble? I let my spirit roam through the land previously. Regardless of whether it’s the Mage Association or the Church of Universal Truth, they are just a bunch of useless people. They don’t even have a single person who is a tier six Divine level expert. We can just grab them and offer them up as blood sacrifices.”
The fat priest shook his head and said, “Tuan Zi, don’t underestimate those two plots of Sacred Land which have a legacy of over 10,000 years.”The raws for Tuan Zi can mean ‘dumpling’. I… don’t want to go there.
