Chapter 1613: Chapter 1275: Stranger_2
Currently, Li Zhirui is still unaware that Li Zhixuan has already returned and successfully broken through the bottleneck, advancing one step ahead of him.
…
Above the nine heavens, lies an ancient, eternal mysterious realm, adorned with countless stars like a dazzling ribbon floating in the dark starry sky.
In the starry sky, the Beidou Star System holds the highest status.
“Mother, second brother Gouchen and several other brothers need some more time to breakthrough, why don’t we slightly postpone the war time? By then, our power will be even stronger.” Ziwei proposed.
Currently, the Beidou Star System is not only the home of numerous Masters of Stars but also occupies many significant positions in the Heavenly Court, such as the Heavenly Emperor, the Six Great Emperor Venerables, and various Divine Monarchs.
It is precisely with such power and divine positions that the Beidou Star System has amassed extensive luck and merit, making the path of cultivation smooth sailing.
Now, Gouchen is at the pinnacle of Perfect Earth Immortal, making an assault towards the Heavenly Immortal Realm!
If this news were to spread, it would surely shock Wanling.
It’s known that the Star God Lineage currently has only two mighty Heavenly Immortals, both from the Beidou lineage, namely Doumu Lord and Ziwei!
If Gouchen also breaks through, that would be three Heavenly Immortals in one sect.
And unsurprisingly, the Star God Lineage will have no more room for shifting the authority away.
“The determined time cannot be altered; it is the best time for attack calculated by me at great cost!”
Doumu Lord firmly refused, saying, “If by then Gouchen hasn’t broken through, then he won’t go to the battlefield; just continue to retreat and assault the Heavenly Immortal Realm.”
After all, a grand war between two Great Thousand Worlds, involving the life and death survival of countless beings from both worlds, cannot possibly end in a short time.
Ziwei, hearing this, did not insist further, instead he said, “Mother, should we now inform some Divine Paths to let them prepare in advance?”
“Yes, but still be sure to maintain secrecy, it shouldn’t become widely known yet, it’s not time.”
With almost a thousand years until the grand war, if announced directly, letting countless beings know, it might cause turmoil and disaster, it still needs to be done gradually.
“Understood! I will go do it immediately.”
Everything was discussed, and Ziwei didn’t linger any longer, as he still was the Heavenly Emperor with many affairs to deal with.
Dang dang dang—
A series of bell chimes echoed in the Heavenly Court, notifying all Earth Immortal Realm Divine beings to quickly gather at the Palace of the Polestar, Ziwei had urgent matters to discuss.
“Big brother, in recent years the Heavenly Court has been peaceful, development has been rapid, why has the Heavenly Emperor suddenly assembled a crowd of great beings?” Li Chengshuo’s Spirit Division opened its eyes, furrowed its brow slightly, and speculated on what Ziwei might say.
“You’ll know once you arrive.” Li Chengsheng did not bother to speculate, for soon they would know, but it seemed it wouldn’t be a trivial matter, otherwise why stir up such a great commotion?
Not long after, all Earth Immortal Realm great beings arrived, waiting for Ziwei to speak.
“What I’m about to say is a very crucial secret, not a single word should be leaked!”
“Rest assured, Your Majesty! We will surely keep it a secret, not letting outsiders know.”
Since there are outsiders, naturally there were insiders, such as teachers and fellow disciples, kinsfolk and friends.
“Mother discovered an Outer Realm world many years ago… therefore, in nine hundred years, a grand war will erupt, everyone prepare for the grand war ahead.”
After Ziwei spoke, the scene went silent, seemingly stunned by the news, unable to react.
“Outer Realm world, world war!? Really a grand move.” The Dragon Tribe Emperor Venerable said with a tone full of irony.
After all, regardless of how one looks at it, this was due to Doumu Lord’s selfishness, yet it involved the entire Heavenly Court, and countless divine beings had to participate, facing the highest mortality rate in a world war, he, coming from the Dragon Tribe, naturally knew many things.
Though Doumu, ultimately a Heavenly Immortal, and in front of Ziwei, he couldn’t say some things straightforwardly.
“There are still several hundred years left, everyone should take this time to enhance your cultivation and strength, from today on, the stars will incline towards the Heavenly Court, further enhancing the court’s Spiritual Energy, creating favorable conditions for your cultivation.”
“Really ought to thank the Heavenly Emperor for his benevolence.”
After saying this, he carelessly bowed, quickly turned, and left, to inform the Sea Clan of this great matter.
“Everyone, go on with your tasks.” Ziwei saw this but did not say much, after all, indeed they were in the wrong, having schemed against other forces; people voicing a few complaints, are they not allowed?
Li Chengsheng and Li Chengshuo exchanged glances, whereupon their true selves moved in the Divine Domain, heading straight to Mount Wanxian.
“Are the two ancestors coming back hurriedly to inform about the world war?” Li Guangjie saw their expressions and knew they were up to something, opening his mouth immediately to clarify.
“Evil Cleansing Lotus Seeds?”
Li Chengshuo exclaimed in surprise, “Father cultivated the Evil Cleansing Lotus Seeds to have such an effect?”
“Indeed, therefore, over the years the family has not only encouraged the clansmen to cultivate diligently and rapidly improve their cultivation, but also spent enormous efforts in cultivating the lotus seeds.”
When the world war breaks out, as invaders, they will certainly enter the Outer Realm world, having Evil Cleansing Lotus Seeds in hand can alleviate the oppression from the Otherworldly Heavenly Dao somewhat, recovering a portion of combat power.
“If the two ancestors require, the clan can provide a hundred lotus seeds, any more will need the ancestors to cultivate themselves.” Li Guangjie said.
Indeed, distributing among so many clansmen was rather tight.
Luckily, there’s still some time left, giving them a chance to cultivate them themselves.
“Then thank you, Clan Leader.” Such good things, the two naturally would not refuse.
Especially as divine beings, their oppression when entering the Outer Realm world will surely be greater than other cultivators or demon cultivators.
“Since lotus seeds are of utmost importance, I ask the two ancestors to refrain from leaking them casually, so as not to bring great disaster upon the family.”
“Rest assured, Clan Leader, we understand the gravity of the matter.”
In the Heavenly Court, there are all sorts mixed, every camp has representatives within, how could they casually reveal anything?
“However, can we make some trade with the Beidou lineage? Since the lotus seeds are so beneficial in the world war, they certainly cannot refuse, surely willing to buy at a high price, if the family lacks anything, they can take this opportunity to procure it.” Li Chengshuo shared his thoughts.
Li Guangjie, hearing this, immediately started calculating, with the family having accumulated quite a number of Evil Cleansing Lotus Seeds, taking some out for trade isn’t impossible, but requires the Beidou Star System to show genuine interest.
“I ask the two ancestors to wait a moment, I will consult with the Elders, see how best to trade.”
“Feel free to go, Clan Leader, we will roam, walk around the clan grounds.”
The two hadn’t returned for many years, now that there’s a chance, they wanted to see the family’s development over the years.
“Father and Lady Xuan are in secluded cultivation, but when did the family have a clansman about to breakthrough to the Earth Immortal Realm?”
It was coincidental, as Li Chengsheng and Li Chengshuo just walked to Yuhong’s Cave Mansion, he made a breakthrough, his presence linked with the Heavenly Dao, instantly gathering tribulation clouds, quickly forming a thick canopy of clouds.
As the thunder tribulation brewed, the two swiftly moved outside its range, simultaneously assisting in protection.
Though they didn’t know who is about to breakthrough, anyone able to stay at Mount Wanxian is absolutely no outsider.
“Which ancestor’s cave mansion is this? I don’t have any impression.”
“Not just you, I haven’t seen the family have an ancestor on the verge of breaking through to the Earth Immortal Realm either.”
…
Seeing the thunder tribulation gather, the clansmen approaching for the Tribulation Transcendence were stunned upon seeing the person undertaking it, murmuring among themselves.
Then, Li Guangjie and others hurriedly arrived.
“Clan Leader, do you know who this is?”
Li Guangjie nodded, explaining, “This was an Artifact Spirit contracted by Ancestor Rui during his training abroad, because of nearing an Earth Immortal breakthrough, especially constructing this Cave Mansion for it.”
“Artifact Spirit?”
Li Chengsheng and Li Chengshuo looked surprisingly, they hadn’t realized before this wasn’t someone of the human race, even now, with the Clan Leader’s reminder, they couldn’t discern anything amiss.
