Translator: 549690339
Inside the pitch-black space, luminescent lights were twinkling, like the brightest stars in the night sky.
The glimmers gradually coalesced into figures one after another. Their silhouettes were majestic, sturdy as pillars upholding the heavens, indomitable.
These figures were male and female, old and young, all with different demeanors. Some were concentrating on their cultivation, some were looking around aimlessly, some were pondering on the mysteries of the Sword Dao, and some were cuddling up to others.
If low-level cultivators were to witness this scene, they would certainly be terrified by the imposing aura of these figures, their legs shaking with fear.
All these figures were notably famous cultivators in Kyushu, the helmsmen of great powers, such as the Sect Masters of the Six Sects, the Emperors of the Nine Dynasties and so on. When these figures gathered together, it was definitely to discuss major events that would determine the fate of Kyushu.
“I guess all of us know the reason for sending out the Remote Communication Talismans and gathering everyone here today.” A figure opened his eyes, his gaze burning brightly. It was none other than Bai Hongtu, the genius leader of Dao Sect who has reached the end of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage!
Upon Jiang Li’s suggestion, Bai Hongtu had toiled hard to manufacture the Remote Communication Talismans and distributed them to the leaders of all the influential forces.
“Emperor Dreamriver, Emperor Wei, please mind your professionalism. Don’t bring your consorts to serious discussions.” Bai Hongtu couldn’t help but remind.
The two figures cuddling others were Emperor Dreamriver and Emperor Wei.
“Oh,” Emperor Dreamriver made amends and left his consorts’ sleeping chamber.
Emperor Wei also made amends and left the Union Sect.
“Didn’t you call us here to discuss the major breakthrough of Yin Yang Heavenly Seal Ancestor in spiritual treasure cultivation?”
Bai Hongtu nodded: “Indeed, the Yin Yang Heavenly Seal Ancestor, putting aside food and sleep and utilizing the data and ideas collected from all over Kyushu, has finally managed to advance the spiritual treasure cultivation method to the next level.”
Yu Yin opened her mouth to ask why a spiritual treasure would need to eat or sleep. But considering Bai Hongtu’s seriousness, she didn’t voice her query.
“With the newly developed cultivation method, a spiritual treasure could be upgraded by one rank, for example, from a lower-grade spiritual artifact to a mid-grade spiritual artifact, or from a mid-grade magical artifact to a high-grade magical artifact.”
“Can it transcend levels?”
Bai Hongtu provided a positive answer: “Yes. A high-grade spiritual artifact could cultivate itself to become a lower-grade magical artifact.”
All of the figures drew a sharp breath simultaneously. This was truly an incredible achievement, a qualitative breakthrough. By learning the new spiritual treasure cultivation method, the overall strength of Kyushu would be greatly improved.
“Dao Sect will publicize the specific cultivation method to all of Kyushu in a few days.” Bai Hongtu paused, then continued, “But that’s just an apparent reason. I have called you all here for a more important purpose!”
The figures held their breath. If even the breakthrough in the spiritual treasure cultivation method was considered a superficial reason, what could be the real thing that Bai Hongtu was planning?
Thump, thump, thump … For a moment, the only sounds in the dark space were the heavy breathing and heartbeats.
“I want you all to join me in defeating Jiang Li!”
“Let’s disperse, I still have to attend to my consorts.” Emperor Dreamriver turned around, ready to leave.
“Don’t bother me with such trivial matters when I’m practicing my sword.” The Sword Lord continued to delve into the mysteries of the Sword Dao with his head bowed down.
“White Master, all humans die once they are killed, and cultivators are also humans. One only lives once, so treasure it,” Master Wu Zhi solemnly reminded.
“White Sect Master, feel free to speak your mind. I promise I won’t tell Jiang Li.” Saintess Pure Heart held onto a memory stone, ready to record what would happen next.
“Everyone, please allow me to explain.” Bai Hongtu quickly said.
“While Jiang Li is indeed terrifying, that shouldn’t be a reason for us to shy away from battle. We, cultivators, should become more courageous with each battle, break through our limits, surpass ourselves. How else can we tread the path of immortality swiftly, correctly, and directly?
“But we’re afraid of challenging Jiang, the Human Emperor. We might stumble on the path to immortality.”
“Just cut to the chase.” Yu Yin grimaced, she knew she couldn’t trust Bai Hongtu when he was so rhetorical.
“I can’t win alone, so I want to pull everyone up together…”
“To die?” Ji Zhi interjected.
Bai Hongtu glared: “To defeat Jiang Li!”
“Actually, Jiang Li is not invincible. In my memory, he was chased down to a realm drop by others during the Foundation Establishment stage, nearly lost his life to poison in the Golden Core Stage, barely survived the beast attack in the Nascent Soul stage, missed by a hair in his transcendent challenge during the Divinity Transformation stage…”
“Can you talk about what’s happened in the last three hundred years?” Li Er couldn’t help but interrupt.
“In the Mahayana Realm, he was…well…anyway, Jiang Li is not invincible. As long as we find the right method, we can defeat him!” Bai Hongtu concluded decisively.
“I already have a general plan. Jiang Li would never guess that I would get inspiration from the Ancient World.”
“What inspiration?” Penglai Fairy Island’s Master Mo Ruoyu was curious.
“Spirit plants formation.” Bai Hongtu revealed his plan.
“In the two years that Jiang Li has been away to the Ancient World Continent, I have traveled across the mountains and rivers, measured the length and breadth of the Kyushu Continent even the Four Sea on the far side with my feet.”
“The larger the formation, the harder it is to arrange, the protective formation of Kyushu is a case in point. But creating something from nothing and making a few alterations on the basis of the spirit plants are entirely different.”
“According to my calculations, I can say for sure that it is possible to set up a large formation that integrates all the power of Kyushu. And the power of this formation…is beyond my calculations!”
“Do you understand what this means? If we can set up this formation and concentrate all the power of Kyushu on me, we may have a slim chance of defeating Jiang Li!” Excited by his own idea, Bai Hongtu waved his arms crazily, admiring his intelligent strategy.
“Only an overwhelming force can combat someone who surpasses the standards!”
It’s not to say that everyone wasn’t tempted.
Bai Hongtu’s method is highly feasible, and his understanding of formation methods is unparalleled in Kyushu. If he says that it is possible, then it is.
Imagine, what an exhilarating moment it would be if we could really defeat Jiang Li.
At that time, we could go out and brag that we have defeated Jiang Li!
“The position of some spirit plants needs to be changed, and I would need your help.”
“This is a small matter. My Martial Emperor Dynasty will handle this.”
“I also agree with Sect Master Bai’s plan.” Emperor Yong made his stand.
“My Great Sui….”
“Four Sea Dragon Palace….”
“Penglai Fairy Island….”
“The Pure Land of Red Dust is also willing to participate.” Saintess Pure Heart was tempted. If Jiang Li failed and was affected, she could take the opportunity to enter his heart….
Doable!
“I’ll participate too.” Yu Yin had long wanted to challenge Jiang Li but was stopped due to the discrepancy in their martial prowess. Even if Jiang Li agreed to fight her, it would merely be for practice.
She hoped to see Jiang Li’s limit through Bai Hongtu’s plan, making her goal clearer.
Gradually, more and more figures raised their hands in agreement, which thrilled Bai Hongtu.
Defeating Jiang Li is not far away!
“I would like to name this operation ‘Assault on Jiang Li’. Any objections?”
“I have a question.” A figure who hadn’t spoken up from the beginning, raised his hand.
“Speak.” Bai Hongtu gave the floor readily.
“Can you please not pull me in the next time we discuss stuff like this?” Jiang Li, sitting in the corner, awkwardly asked.
