Chapter 1028: The Spirit Race's Final Plan
Spacetime Star, Spirit race grand hall.
"The Spiritual Empress, Rui Emperor has retreated," Ling Shu reported.
The Spiritual Empress softly acknowledged, her stunning face showing no emotion.
She didn't even inquire about the manner of the defeat.
As if she had already anticipated the outcome.
"How is the collection going?" the Spiritual Empress asked.
"Enough to refine the Primordial Star," Ling Shu said with a confident smile.
The Spiritual Empress nodded slightly. "What is the current situation of the Spacetime Star?"
"It's chaotic," Ling Shu replied. "However, it has attracted a significant number of reinforcements from the Celestial Star, holding back their forces. Additionally, all the teleportation arrays have been destroyed, preventing them from reaching the Primordial Star quickly."
"The Spacetime Star has been an effective bait." the Spiritual Empress noted. "The assault on the Ancestral Star has drawn substantial Sky race forces. Now, neither the Ancestral Star nor the Celestial Star can send reinforcements."
"As long as we can keep the Spacetime Star contained, we'll have ample time to execute our final plan."
"The Sky race has calculated everything," Ling Shu said with a smirk. "But they never expected that our true target wasn't the three major territories."
"Our goal is to establish a foothold in the high-dimensional cosmic." the Spiritual Empress continued, "It's not to seek revenge against the Sky race. As long as we secure a territory to settle in, we can develop steadily."
"The three territories of the Sky race are heavily fortified and nearly impregnable, making them very difficult to conquer."
"Only the Rui Emperor would be so naive as to think such a simple plan could succeed in taking the Ancestral Star."
"Even if the Sky race's divine beings fall, the Ancestral Star remains formidable and far beyond the current reach of our Spirit race."
"In terms of strategy, the Rui Emperor is far inferior to you, Spiritual Empress," Ling Shu declared.
"He's just overly confident in his strength," the Spiritual Empress replied. "He hasn't yet learned from underestimating the Sky race. However, his actions allowed us to gather enough energy to refine the Primordial Star."
Ling Shu hesitated for a moment and said, "But the core of the Primordial Star is currently in chaos, with three factions vying for control. Do you have confidence in this, Spiritual Empress?"
"It may seem like a tangled mess, but it can easily be unraveled," the Spiritual Empress said softly.
Ling Shu looked curious. "Could you explain further?"
The Spiritual Empress said, "The combat prowess of the Sky King Crops guarding the outside is far inferior to that of the three major territories. They mainly rely on reinforcements from the Spacetime Star. As long as we cut off their reinforcements, neither the Ancestral Star nor the Celestial Star will have a direct route to the Primordial Star."
"While our Female Spirit race's combat prowess may not match that of the Male Spirit race, it is more than sufficient to overcome the weak guards of the Primordial Star."
"Refining at the core, we can rule out the strongest expert of the devil race, Jiang Jun. If he still harbors any improper thoughts about the Primordial Star, it would be utterly foolish."
"Once we break free, Jiang Jun will be the first to flee. He's not a threat."
"The real issues are the fire seed and Tian Yumo."
"I will personally handle Tian Yumo to ensure the refinement process proceeds."
"As for the human fire seed, we'll use the energy gathered from this battle, under the command of a peak Supreme, to control and refine it..."
"The Primordial Star will undoubtedly fall!"
...
Outside the Ancestral Star, Wang Ye's expression grew serious as he sensed a faint, unique energy.
It felt akin to the power of his divine item, the divination astrolabe, originating from the same place.
The Primitive Cosmic Sea.
This wasn't energy from a high-dimensional cosmic.
It wasn't a divine item that had appeared here.
Rather, it was something he was quite familiar with, something he had encountered many times before. It was a spiritual spell grand array powered by the Spirit race's unique talents and secret techniques.
If he hadn't been pursuing the retreating Spirit race army, he might never have noticed it.
The faint residue of energy, nearly indistinguishable, mingled with the chaotic energies of the battle at the Ancestral Star, making it hard to detect.
In a short time, it would completely dissipate.
As if it had never existed.
The Spirit race had plotted deeply!
Such ruthlessness!
"The Spiritual Empress included the Male Spirit race in her scheme," Wang Ye sighed.
The Male Spirit race used the Spacetime Star as bait to distract the Sky race's forces and attack the Ancestral Star!
There was no flaw in the entire battle.
Because the Male Spirit race, led by the strongest experts, genuinely wanted to seize the Ancestral Star!
It was impossible to act.
Regardless of victory or defeat, the Male Spirit race would suffer heavy losses this time!
Who would have imagined that they were just pawns of the Spiritual Empress?
"Setting up a spiritual spell grand array outside is like casting a giant net, controlling the entire situation and absorbing the aftershocks of the battle."
"Inside, spies were planted within the Male Spirit race. When they attacked the five realms of the Ancestral Star, the Supreme-level beings served as the array's core, controlling the divine items that absorbed energy. They split into five groups. Even if one or two Supreme-level beings failed, it wouldn't affect the overall plan."
"First, use the Spacetime Star as bait. Then, make the Ancestral Star the focal point of the attack, gradually weakening the Sky race's forces, preventing them from dividing their attention."
"Finally, gather all the Female Spirit race's forces and, with the abundant innate energy, forcefully refine—"
"The Primordial Star!"
Wang Ye's eyes gleamed.
He had completely sorted out his thoughts.
The Spirit race's plans were meticulously linked.
No wonder he felt that the Ancestral Star's attack, despite being powerful, didn't seem like the Spirit race's usual style.
It turned out that the Primordial Star was the Spirit race's true target!
They aimed to achieve the greatest gain with the smallest cost!
"You wish!" Wang Ye gritted his teeth.
Since this matter concerned the Primordial Star, he couldn't just stand by.
Once the battle on the Primordial Star erupted, the balance would be shattered, and it wouldn't benefit his side at all!
If the Spirit race was defeated, the fire seed's energy would be exhausted. The Sky race would seize the opportunity to capture the Primordial Star.
The Devil race would also welcome back their leader. Jiang Jun's return would be a devastating blow to humanity!
If the Spirit race won, the Primordial Star would be refined!
Although it would mean expelling the Sky race, welcoming the Spirit race would only worsen the situation for them!
Furthermore, the Primordial Star would become the main battlefield in the future. The Sky race and Spirit race would be locked in endless combat, leaving humanity out of the equation.
Not to mention, his mentor would inevitably fall, and Jiang Jun would still break free!
Therefore, once the battle for the Primordial Star began...
No matter who won, it would be a heavy blow to them!
Not only would his mentor perish, but Jiang Jun's return would also signal the Devil race's counterattack!
In the upcoming low-dimensional race war, humanity would be at a huge disadvantage!
It could even lead to a crushing defeat.
"We must stop it!" Wang Ye calmed down.
He knew exactly what he had to do.
The one who caused the problem must be the one to solve it.
Only the Sky race could stop the Spirit race's plan.
He connected his consciousness to the emblem.
Very soon...
"Brother Ye, you're incredible!" King Ada's hearty voice came from the depths of his consciousness. "You guessed the Spirit race's plan perfectly! Unfortunately, we didn't make it in time and could only miss the opportunity!"
"Where are you now, my lord?" Wang Ye asked.
"Haha, on the way to the Ancestral Star!" King Ada laughed bitterly. "We originally hoped to catch some retreating Spirit race remnants, but they were defeated so quickly."
That was great!
Wang Ye felt a surge of joy.
"No, it's not too late. It's just right!" Wang Ye said. "Do you trust me, my lord?"
"Yes, of course, I do!" King Ada replied. "So, what do you mean, Brother Ye?"
"There's no time to explain now," Wang Ye said. "Please head to the Primordial Star as quickly as possible! The Spacetime Star and Ancestral Star aren't the Spirit race's true targets. Their real goal is to take down the Primordial Star!"
"What?" King Ada exclaimed in shock.
"Lord, please immediately inform Lord Tian Yumo," Wang Ye said. "I'm afraid the Spirit race has destroyed the teleportation array on the Spacetime Star, making timely rescue impossible. However, with Lord Tian Yumo's abilities, there might still be a chance to turn the tide."
"Good! I'll notify them at once!" King Ada replied urgently.
After ending the call, Wang Ye let out a sigh of relief. The immediate priority was addressing the pressing rescue situation. Tian Yumo was highly capable, and with her skills, she would undoubtedly come up with the best response. After all, Wang Ye's network within the Sky race could not compare to Tian Yumo's.
However, since the matter concerned the Primordial Star, he had to do his utmost. He reconnected his consciousness.
"Where are you, Ye Wang?" King Tianjia's voice was kind and cheerful, indicating he was in a good mood.
"Outside the Ancestral Star," Wang Ye replied seriously. "I've discovered movements from the Spirit race..."
Unlike his conversation with King Ada, Wang Ye shared everything with King Tianjia. King Ada was under Tian Yumo's command and was responsible for the Primordial Star, so he naturally had to guard it. There was no need for detailed explanations.
But King Tianjia was in charge of the Nether Ancestral Realm.
"Wait a moment; I will immediately report this to the Nether Emperor," King Tianjia said seriously.
"Alright," Wang Ye responded.
It would be beneficial if the Nether Ancestral Realm sent reinforcements. Even if they didn't, the news would surely spread, which would help protect the Primordial Star.
Now, all Wang Ye could do was his best and leave the rest to fate.
Suddenly, a violent ripple appeared on the emblem. A powerful presence instantly emerged from a distant place.
"Tell me everything you found out." Tian Yumo's voice was calm yet commanding.
"Alright," Wang Ye began. He spoke, without embellishments, conveying only what he had observed. With Tian Yumo's intelligence, she would discern the truth.
After a while, Tian Yumo's voice, now slightly softer, came through. "You did well. If you can stop the Spirit race's plan, you will receive the highest credit. Don't worry. Leave the rest to me."
Her voice lingered briefly in Wang Ye's sea of consciousness before the communication ended.
"Phew." Wang Ye felt much more at ease. As an adversary, Tian Yumo was indeed formidable, but as an ally, she was incredibly reliable.
However, whether they could completely thwart the Spirit race's plans, and to what extent, was another matter. For the Primordial Star, the best outcome would be to maintain the status quo, forcing the Spirit race to retreat.
"Reinforcements are almost settled," Wang Ye thought. "The key now is the top-tier combat prowess."
He shivered. The combat prowess of the Female Spirit race was not on par with that of the Male Spirit race.
The total combat prowess of the Spirit race was, at best, comparable to the Strength race. Thus, the Female Spirit race likely had only one strongest expert, the Spiritual Empress.
Their plan was essentially for the Spiritual Empress to hold off Tian Yumo, using peak-level Supreme power and immense innate energy to refine the fire seed!
"On the Primordial Star, only Tian Yumo stands as the strongest expert." Wang Ye's eyes gleamed. "But the Spacetime Star has one too."
The one he knew was Tian Ganggang!
Swoosh!
Wang Ye made his way to the Spacetime Star. At worst, he would reveal the existence of the divine item, the divination astrolabe, to open a path to the Primordial Star and send the strongest expert from the Spacetime Star over!
No matter what, he would not let the Spirit race's plan succeed!
"I can ignore the Sky race's annihilation," he thought.
"But to covet the Primordial Star... stop dreaming!"
