Chapter 1124: War of the Two Worlds, Begin!

The Peacock Grand Sage said slowly, “The apes’ gate to the Starry Sea was taken away by him years ago. Even if the Celestial Sect of Wonders joins the battle between the dragons and the Great Void Sect in the Black Sea now, he may not be able to defeat them. Furthermore, he does not have good ties with the Great Void Sect. They may not cooperate in this War of the Two Worlds.”

The Golden Roc Grand Sage said, “With two powerful sects, neither will submit to the other and listen to the other. To the Celestial Sect of Wonders and the Great Void Sect, the best plan is for each one of them to fight their own fight. If not, cooperation may prove more harmful than beneficial.”

“With the conflicts between both sides, such a form of cooperation may not even materialize.”

“The apes already lost their gate to the Starry Sea. Excluding the dragons and the Great Void Sect, the last two gates to the Starry Sea are with the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage and me.” The Golden Roc Grand Sage pruned his feathers and lifted his wings and then said, “The Celestial Sect of Wonders is a newcomer and they have no beef with us. Specifically, even the apes and the dragons had suffered at his hands. I have lost the E Chi and the Nine Luminaries Heaven-Crushing Formation too, whereas he lost nothing.”

“Hence, in the upcoming War of the Two Worlds, his first action will not be to help his ally but instead, to act in a way that maximizes his own benefits. He has high expectations and with two gates to the Starry Sea, the remaining gates will be his target.”

The Peacock Grand Sage said, “Unlike the dragons and the apes, we and the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage are much more secretive. Hence, if he wants to go after us, he will have to wait for us to act before he can ambush us.”

The Golden Roc Grand Sage’s eyes flashed as he continued, “Since we know that he is planning to spring an ambush, both the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage and I will be more careful. Lin Feng will recognize this as well and hence, he will take the initiative by attempting to deceiving us first. When we act, he will show his true hand.”

“After all, he possesses a very big first-mover advantage.”

The Peacock Grand Sage looked up slightly and said, “The Great Void Sect has already entered the Black Sea. If he wants to trick us and force us to reveal ourselves, then he can only do it at the Lingyuan Mountains.”

“The bait he is likely to plant for us is going to be the Great Void Sect’s Mount Taihua. While they almost came to blows in the Barren Expanses, with the sudden entrance by the Great Void Sect into the Black Sea, the two sects may set aside their differences and ally together.”

“Even if they do not become allies, there is nothing stopping the Celestial Sect of Wonders from using the Great Void Sect as a bait.”

The Golden Roc Grand Sage turned his head over and said, “Hence, we cannot go to Mount Taihua now. We shall not make it easy for the humans to wage war in the Barren Expanses. After all, there is much I want in the Divine Lands too.”

“Furthermore, the battle is unpredictable. Unless Lin Feng stays out of it completely, he will have to participate somehow or other. It is hard for him to control the situation completely. As long as the Great Void Sect is stuck within the Black Sea, Mount Taihua is up for grab.”

The Peacock Grand Sage said in a low voice, “This War of the Two Worlds is unprecedented not in terms of scale or the power of its participants, but its chaos.”

There was no unifying Holy Demonic Emperor. The humans too had two leaders, the Celestial Sect of Wonders and the Great Void Sect.

In the last War of the Two Worlds, while the Great Void Sect did not possess absolute control, they were still able to control the situation.

In this War of the Two Worlds, the Great Void Sect had entered the Black Sea. This was also the first time the Celestial Sect of Wonders took part in a War of the Two Worlds. No matter how powerful Lin Feng was, it was still not easy for him to unite the humans.

If they could survive this War of the Two Worlds, both Lin Feng and the Celestial Sect of Wonders would play an important role. If they were not severely crippled and could continue growing, then they would play an even more decisive role in the next War of the Two Worlds.

The Golden Roc Grand Sage said slowly, “Don’t be careless. The Celestial Sect of Wonders has many human allies. They may come together as one bloc before they get embroiled in the war. However, he is unable to control everyone. That’s for sure.”

“In this War of the Two Worlds, the situation will definitely be more chaotic. Chaos means that there is a greater risk, but also more opportunities.”

The Golden Roc Grand Sage flapped his wings and a golden light shrouded his surroundings. Then, he flew into the sky.

Behind him, the Peacock Grand Sage followed. There was one more light following tightly behind the Golden Roc Grand Sage and the Peacock Grand Sage from the void.

As the demons in the Barren Expanses started to act, the humans of the Divine Lands started to act too.

In Xiling City, the capital of the Great Qin Empire, the emperor, Shi Yu, faced the many powerful cultivators of his empire.

“News from the Celestial Sect of Wonders state that the Great Void Sect has begun battling against the dragons,” said Shi Yu slowly. “Earlier, the Supreme Heavenly Mirror left Mount Baiyun for the Barren Expanses too.”

Prince Gunyuang (Shi Zongmao) looked on with suspicion as he said, “With the Celestial Sect of Wonders behind, why did the Great Void Sect enter the Black Sea? Even if they are led by the Conservative Faction, that is still too hasty. Furthermore, they did not contact anyone else. Something weird is going on.”

Prince Nanming (Shi Zongtang) sighed, “I feel that this is not planned.”

Prince Jingfang (Shi Lin) looked at Shi Yu and said, “The situation is unclear. While it makes it hard for us to strategize, we can’t sit by and do anything since things have started happening. Observing quietly isn’t the way to go either.”

“The day is finally here. We have talked about it many times,” said Shi Yu slowly. “However, it’s earlier than expected. Fortunately, our preparations are more or less complete, and we are not completely helpless.”

Shi Zongmao and the rest nodded their heads and said, “Correct, even if this continues our preparations do not change. All we are lacking is information on the present situation.”

Shi Yu said, “With the information from the Celestial Sect, it’s enough.”

“Since the Supreme Heavenly Mirror is in the Black Sea, the battle between the Great Void Sect and the dragons will not be resolved immediately.”

Shi Yu stood up slowly and said, “We shall do as we have planned.”

Shi Zongmao and the rest bowed and replied, “Yes, Your Majesty.”

At the same time, in the capital of the Great Zhou Empire, Tianjing City, Liang Pan sat quietly and calmly. Before him, a young man in yellow robes stood. He was the Crown Prince, Liang Yuan.

“Contact the Luofu Holy Man and ask him to pay attention to the inter-world passage between the East Sea and the Barren Expanses. Our Great Zhou cultivators shall be there shortly,” said Liang Pan slowly. “While it’s near the Black Sea, they probably will not care about the Divine Lands before they are done fighting the Great Void Sect. However, other demons may enter the Divine Lands through that passage.”

Liang Yuan said politely, “Yes, father.”

He paused for a while, and then looked at Liang Pan and said, “Father, what about the Grand Advisor?”

The Grand Advisor referred to the Marquis of Xuanji, Zhu Hongwu.

Hearing that, Liang Pan shook his head slightly and said, “Don’t ask about the Grand Advisor. Carry out your tasks first.”

“I am foolish. Forgive me, father,” replied Liang Yuan with his head bowed. Liang Pan looked at him and said, “I know what you mean, but with the current situation, the Great Zhou Empire needs to be calm.”

Liang Yuan nodded his head and said, “Yes, father. I understand.”

Liang Pan waved his hand and Liang Yuan took his leave. After he left, Liang Pan sat on the dragon throne and stared at the ceiling of the pavilion in silence.

“While I hope that the War of the Two Worlds will come quickly, I have not taken care of the issue of that issue and its impact is still present. This timing really places me in a bad spot,” said Liang Pan with a frown as he shook his head.

Other than the two empires, the other powers in the Divine Lands started to respond as well.

The Royal House of the Northern Tribe, the Purple Clouds Sect, the Heavenly Master Sword Sect, the Lightning Sword Sect all made war preparations.

A sect, that was almost forgotten, could be found amidst the western parts of Mount Shu. It was one of the Three Holy Lands, the Mount Shu Sword Sect.

In these years, the Mount Shu Sword Sect bided its time and sealed off its sect. Many almost forgot about it.

After the Mount Shu Battle, the title of the most powerful sword sect went to the Celestial Sect of Wonders. The most powerful sword cultivator in the Divine Lands too became Lin Feng.

Of course, in actual fact, the Celestial Sect of Wonders was not a sword sect and Lin Feng was not a sword cultivator.

The irony of it was not lost on the Mount Shu Sword Sect.

The six swords of Mount Shu were completely destroyed during the battle many years ago. There was no time to rebuild them and their sect had even moved to another mountain near their original location.

However, there was a still a dynamic sword Qi that seemed to be raring for a fight.

However, compared to the past, an odd aura permeated the Mount Shu Sword Sect.

In one moment, it was razor-sharp. Yet, an aura of death permeated the sect and the entire place felt soulless. Two different auras, almost indistinguishable, surrounded them.

The cultivators of the Mount Shu Sword Sect too had vastly different morale.

Some of them were as sharp as the blade of a longsword, giving off a frightening feel.

Others were sluggish and emotionless. They resembled rusty blades.

In a simple pavilion on top of the peak, two elders faced each other in silence.

Suddenly, both opened their mouths and said, “The War of the Two Worlds has begun.”

While they said it at the same time, their tones were different. One brimmed with energy while the other was no more than a croak.

At that moment, in the Barren Expanses, Lin Feng stood in the void and looked at the giant canyon. Without turning his head around, he said to his disciples calmly.

“The new War of the Two Worlds has begun.”
