The temple on Thunder Nether Mountain.
After leaving the Immemorial Divine Well, Wu Tianjue brought the Slaughter Array back to the tribe as quickly as possible. Then, he came straight here.
At this moment, be it the God of Thunder Wu Qiong or the Grand Elder Wu Xuan, they had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Wu Tianjue return, Wu Xuan’s anxious heart finally calmed down. A joyful smile bloomed on her aged face.
“Grand Elder, I’m back.”
“How is it? Have you found the temple of the evil God?” Wu Xuan asked anxiously.
Hearing this, Wu Tianjue nodded heavily.
Whoosh!
With a flip of his hand, an ancient array that emitted a peerless ferocious aura appeared out of thin air in front of him.
“Grand Elder, this is the Slaughter Array. With the map given by the Great God of Thunder, I entered the Immemorial Divine Well and successfully found the temple. It turns out that the master of the temple is the God of Darkness, who rules the darkness of the human world. He seems to have just been revived and is in urgent need of offerings and sacrifices to strengthen himself. Now, I have gained his trust and become an emissary under Him. Other than me, there’s another person called Xie Wuyou. He’s also an emissary of the God of Darkness and specializes in finding various treasures for Him.”
Wu Tianjue recounted his encounter in detail.
The God of Darkness?
Hearing this name, the God of Thunder’s statue suddenly bloomed with divine light. Then, an illusory shadow gradually appeared.
“Greetings, Great God!”
“Greetings, Great God!”
Seeing the God of Thunder appear, Wu Xuan and Wu Tianjue immediately knelt and kowtowed. Their expressions were filled with respect.
“Wu Tianjue, did you find the temple?”
“Yes, Great God.”
“I just heard you say that the title of that evil God is the God of Darkness who controls the darkness of the human world?”
“Yes. It’s said to be the God that the night demon race worships,” Wu Tianjue replied respectfully.
The night demon race?
Within the statue, Wu Qiong’s expression was solemn.
He knew a little about the night demon race. It was a mysterious and powerful clan with gifted clansmen who believed in the power of darkness. It was said that when the night demon race was at its peak, they were as powerful as the Tushan Family.
Ill
The God of Darkness has also been revived?
‘ll
“Yes.”
“In that case, there should still be quite a number of the night demon race’s clansmen in the world. Otherwise, it would’ve been impossible for the God of Darkness to revive,” Wu Qiong said seriously.
He felt that some unknown changes were happening in the Mountain Mausoleum Area. The temple Gods that had fallen or been silent in the past were beginning to revive. This was not a good thing for a new God like him.
This was especially so since the powerful God of Great Green Mountain who belonged to the Great Green Mountain next door had been revived. The Leishan tribe would face a great crisis of life and death at any time.
For now, they could only strengthen themselves as soon as possible to resist the dangers and challenges.
Thinking of this, Wu Qiong’s imposing gaze landed on Wu Tianjue.
“Wu Tianjue, now that you’ve obtained the Slaughter Array, what do you plan to do next?”
“This…”
Facing Wu Qiong’s question, Wu Tianjue was speechless. To be honest, he hadn’t thought it through.
“Reporting to the Great God, the greatest effect of the Slaughter Array is to crazily kill living beings and then absorb their blood essence and souls to strengthen the user. Therefore, if I want to become stronger quickly, I can only kill. I plan to go to some small tribes nearby to practice and test the power of the Slaughter Array. After I have complete control of it, I will be able to deal with the threat of the Qingshan tribe with ease.”
After thinking about it, Wu Tianjue said.
“That can’t do. It’s too slow!” Wu Qiong refuted coldly.
He could not afford to wait that long.
Besides, the Qingshan tribe would not give them such a long time to prepare.
“Great God, do you have any advice?” Wu Tianjue asked carefully.
Hearing this, Wu Qiong snorted.
He looked at the void outside the Thunder Nether Mountain, and a sharp killing intent appeared at the corner of his mouth.
“In a while, the Lieyang tribe’s Grand Elder Zhu Qingshan will arrive. This time around, he should have come to join forces with my Leishan tribe to send troops to attack the Qingshan tribe. This is your chance.”
Hmm? The Lieyang tribe was here?
Hearing this news, Wu Tianjue and Wu Xuan were both stunned.
“May I ask if something major has happened to the Lieyang tribe?”
“Indeed. According to my senses, the leader of the Lieyang tribe, Zhu Huang, seems to have been suppressed by the Qingshan tribe. This time, Zhu Qingshan has come to obtain the support of our Leishan tribe and attack the Qingshan tribe together.”
Wu Qiong said calmly.
“Great God, you mean… We should agree to send troops to attack the Qingshan tribe?”
“Yes. The Lieyang tribe’s heritage and strength are not weaker than the Leishan tribe. They have nearly six thousand people. When they send troops to attack the Qingshan tribe, your chance will come. At that time, let the other members of the tribe lead the troops. You will head to the Lieyang tribe and kill all the members of the Lieyang tribe with the Slaughter Array in your hands. When you absorb their blood essence and souls, you will be able to obtain powerful strength. By then, we will not need to fear even the Qingshan tribe.”
Wu Qiong’s cold voice rang out in the temple.
What? Kill the members of the Lieyang tribe?
Hearing this crazy plan, both Wu Xuan and Wu Tianjue were shocked. This was simply a desperate plan.
“Great God, this… Isn’t this a little too cruel? After all, the Lieyang tribe…”
“Hmph, cruel? This is the rule of this world! The strong prey on the weak and strength is respected! As long as we can become stronger, the process and methods are not important! To think you’re so soft-hearted as the leader of the tribe. Have you learned nothing from being the leader for all these years? Let me tell you, if the Lieyang tribe doesn’t perish, we’ll be the ones who die! You can choose between the Lieyang tribe and the Leishan tribe!” Wu Qiong roared.
He was extremely dissatisfied with Wu Tianjue’s compassion. Those who achieved great things did not care about trifles.
In his opinion, Wu Tianjue didn’t have a good grasp of the bigger picture, nor was he ruthless enough. He was not cut out to do great things at all. If it wasn’t for the fact that there was no one else, he really wanted to replace Wu Tianjue.
“Great God, please do not be angered! I naturally chose the Leishan tribe. I will follow your will.”
Wu Tianjue was filled with fear.
“Humph! For the sake of the tribe, do as you see fit.”
After saying that, Wu Qiong retracted his aura and presence and hid within the statue.
Whoosh!
Not long after Wu Qiong finished speaking, a bright spiritual light cut through the void, and a spiritual boat of the Lieyang tribe descended outside the temple.
On it stood an elder in green with a deep aura. It was the Grand Elder of the Lieyang tribe, Zhu Qingshan. His cultivation had already reached the Divine Pedestal realm.
“Brother Qingshan, why are you here? I see that you’re in a hurry. Could it be that something big has happened?” Wu Xuan asked curiously.
Hearing this, Zhu Qingshan nodded solemnly.
“Brother Wu Xuan, to tell you the truth, I came to the Leishan tribe to discuss with you about sending troops to attack the Qingshan tribe.”
Attack the Qingshan tribe?
Wu Xuan and Wu Tianjue pretended to be shocked.
“Brother Qingshan, what happened to the Lieyang tribe?”
“Sigh, don’t say anymore. Ever since the wedding ceremony was disrupted by that bastard Wu Huan, our leader Zhu Huang led his men to the Qingshan tribe, but they detained them. The Qingshan tribe even threatened that we have to exchange treasures and resources for them. They said that if they don’t see any treasures or resources after three days, they will kill Zhu Huang and the others. For this, I would like to ask the Leishan tribe to send troops together and attack the Qingshan tribe first.”
“I’ve heard that the Qingshan tribe’s God of Great Green Mountain is showing signs of recovery. If we don’t get rid of him as soon as possible, I’m afraid that we’ll be raising a tiger to bring disaster upon ourselves. Brother Wu Xuan, Wu Huan harmed the leader’s son and is now hiding in the Qingshan tribe, are you going to let this go? This is a good opportunity to take revenge,” Zhu Qingshan advised earnestly.
Hearing him mention Wu Zhan, Wu Tianjue’s eyes instantly burst forth with intense hatred and ferocity.
“Wu Huan killed my son and this is an irreconcilable grudge. To think the Qingshan tribe dares to hide Wu Huan. They are clearly looking down on the Leishan tribe and openly challenging the dignity of our tribe. This cannot be tolerated! Grand Elder, I think we should send troops to attack the Qingshan tribe. We can’t let things continue to develop,” Wu Tianjue said pretentiously.
Since Zhu Qingshan wanted the Leishan tribe to send troops and attack the Qingshan tribe together with them, they naturally couldn’t miss this good opportunity.
“War is dangerous. I think we should be more cautious about starting a tribal war. Why don’t we make a decision after we discuss it?”
Wu Xuan pretended to be troubled. But in fact, he couldn’t wait to send troops. This way, Wu Tianjue could then take the opportunity to head to the Lieyang tribe.
However, he could not reveal such a secret plan. He had to put on an act.
As expected, when he heard that Wu Xuan had intentions of delaying, Zhu Qingshan immediately became anxious.
“Brother Wu Xuan, this opportunity cannot be missed. Taking advantage of the fact that the Qingshan tribe is still in its infancy, this is the best opportunity to destroy them. Once you miss it, it will definitely bring the danger of destruction to the Leishan tribe. The Lieyang tribe is ready. As long as you give the order, we can immediately attack the Qingshan tribe,” Zhu Qingshan said earnestly. His eyes were filled with expectation.
Hearing this, Wu Xuan pretended to frown and think for a long time before sighing heavily.
“Very well. The Qingshan tribe is indeed too arrogant. We must nip this threat in the bud and not let it grow. Wu Tianjue, I order you to gather the troops immediately and prepare to attack the Qingshan tribe.”
“Yes.”
Wu Tianjue bowed.
Hearing this, Zhu Qingshan was overjoyed.
“Brother Wu Xuan, thank you! The Lieyang tribe will never forget this friendship and will repay it generously in the future. Right, let’s not delay any longer. Let’s agree to take action in three days, how about it?”
Zhu Qingshan stared at Wu Xuan.
Regarding this, the latter naturally had no objections.
“Sure. Three days later, my Leishan tribe will lead our men to your Lieyang tribe and attack the Qingshan tribe together.”
“Good! See you in three days!”
After receiving the Leishan tribe’s affirmative answer, Zhu Qingshan immediately steered the spiritual boat back to the Licyang tribe.
“Hmph…”
Looking at his departing figure, be it Wu Tianjue or Wu Xuan, their lips curled into a cold smile.
“Tianjue, you should go prepare as well. Three days later, it will be your turn to act. Zhu Qingshan is right. This is indeed a once-in-a-lifctime opportunity. Whether or not you can protect the tribe will depend on you.”
Wu Xuan’s face was solemn.
“Grand Elder, don’t worry. For the sake of the tribe, I won’t disappoint you.”
After saying that, Wu Tianjue took a deep breath and immediately went down the mountain to gather his troops.
Just as they were discussing their attack on the Qingshan tribe, Lin Wudao also brought Xie Wuyou back to his temple..
