Chapter 433: Chapter 275: Join Forces_2
Su Shaoqing’s narration completed the account of events, leaving listeners such as Shi Jinglong with ashen faces, too horrified for words.
The Righteous Path was defeated, and in such a dismal fashion?
Not only did the plan of the Seventh Sacred Place fail, but three Divine Martial Venerables were lost, including Zhou Buji, the Earth Yuan Mountain master with trendous potential and hope of reaching the Peak of Divine Martial, and even the lord of the Sacred Place itself, Ocean-listening Scholar Zhang Longyuan, suffered grievous injuries…
How could this be, how could this be!
With this turn of events, the consistently retreating, direly beleaguered Evil Path Demon Sect could now catch its breath, and even stabilize its position to continue the tug of war with the Righteous Path, resulting in a deadlock, a tension-filled situation that is difficult to resolve, right?
If the standoff between the Black and White paths continues, then which side could spare the strength to rescue them from this person’s hands?
This…!
The people of the Dragon and Tiger Platform were ashen-faced, too horrified for words.
Xu Yang, however, was focusing on sothing else: “To break through in one fell swoop and reach the absolute peak, Chen Tianjie is indeed a character.”
“Yes!”
Despite the enmity of his clan being annihilated, Su Shaoqing did not skimp on his praise.
“This man is already among the top figures just below the absolute peak in the Divine Martial List, ranking only after the masters of the White Path’s great Sacred Places and the Demon Sect’s two envoys; now having obtained the Heavenly Demon Great Skill and cultivated the Heavenly Tribulation Demon God Skill, his combat strength has soared. Not only did he cut down Zhou Buji, but he also defeated the master of the Sea Reading Pavilion, Zhang Longyuan, in a disastrous defeat.”
“It is said that on that day, Zhang Longyuan also carried a copy of War God’s Atlas, the Cang Sea Unlimited Sword monunt of the Sea Reading Pavilion, but still lost to Chen Tianjie’s Heavenly Tribulation Demon God, retreating back to the Sea Reading Pavilion, where he went into seclusion and did not erge, even sending for an Eternal Evergreen Pill from the Evergreen Palace, indicating the severity of his injuries.”
“Now, the Evil Path has announced to the world that Iron Heart Fortress has joined the Heavenly Demon Sect, with Chen Tianjie conferred as the Heavenly Demon Guardian, holding a status equivalent to the left and right envoys, second only to the missing Sect Hierarch, Leng Aotian.”
“The Evil Path has gained Iron Heart Fortress, while the Righteous Path has lost Earth Yuan Mountain. With this give-and-take, the strengths of the Black and White paths have once again reached a balance. For three hundred years, until Chen Tianjie’s life cos to an end, it is unlikely that there will be another great war.”
“It’s just that with this developnt…”
Having said that, Su Shaoqing’s brows slightly furrowed.
A deadlock between the Black and White paths, difficult to resolve, could be both a good and a bad thing.
Good, in the best scenario, where the two paths are stalemated, each wary of the other’s movents, neither dares to divert forces, making it even more difficult for them to pursue those who disrupt their plans.
Bad, in that the two paths could reach an understanding, thinking that, for the ti being, neither can do anything to the other, so it might be better to redirect their focus to eliminate the third-party causing trouble and fishing in murky waters, avoiding nurturing a threat.
Which possibility is greater?
Su Shaoqing was also unsure, but one must always prepare for the worst.
If the Black and White paths join forces and redirect their focus, how would they respond?
Su Shaoqing had no ideas and could only look up at Xu Yang.
Xu Yang smiled unconcernedly, “Whatever happens, it’s just a matter of blocking the soldiers and covering the water with earth. Don’t worry, you may go now.”
“This… As you say!”
With Xu Yang’s response, Su Shaoqing was in no position to say more, and with unease in his heart, he descended from the Nine Ceremony High Altar.
Xu Yang then turned his gaze back to the War God’s Atlas.
Confidence cos with a strong foundation!
After decades of developnt, he no longer feared Divine Martial, and although he could not yet formally challenge the great Divine Martial forces of the Black and White paths, self-preservation was more than enough. Even if the Black and White paths joined forces, they would still need to locate him.
Therefore, next up is the confrontation with the Pavilion of Heavenly chanism!
Regarding that Qiankun Bagua, Xu Yang was also very interested, since among the forty-eight copies of the War God’s Atlas, this is the only one that involves the Skill of Heavenly chanism. How much ability does it truly hold, what can it achieve?
He awaited with keen interest and readied himself to welco the challenge!
…
Ten days later.
Pavilion of Heavenly chanism, Dao Concealing Peak!
“Your presence graces our humble peak, shedding light upon Dao Concealing Peak!”
In the Qiankun Hall, Dao Wuya sat in the seat of honor, looking at the people on both sides with a smile and speaking with a sigh, “The battle at Iron Heart Fortress truly opened our eyes. Despite all my calculations, I never anticipated this move in the world!”
His words were full of admiration, yet they were also loaded with veiled sarcasm, not bothering to conceal the irony.
In response, the people on both sides remained silent.
The silence of those from the Righteous Path was expected, as they were the biggest losers in this ordeal, not only losing Iron Heart Fortress but also Dragon and Tiger Platform, giving that person the opportunity to seize a copy of the War God’s Atlas.
The silence from those of the Evil Path ant they had raised a threat to themselves, and the situation was not optimistic. Their adversary had not lost everything and actually held a great advantage, so it was unwise to act smug and intensify the conflict, which would allow that person to remain uninvolved and fish in troubled waters.
Seeing that no one was speaking up, Dao Wuya’s expression turned cold, and he also remained silent.
He had long said that this person was a major threat that should not be left unchecked and allowed to grow.
But these people simply did not listen, still fixated on the imdiate benefits, tenaciously holding onto their opponents.
Now, having fought to mutual destruction, they’d allowed that person to seize the opportunity to grow, transforming from a minor nuisance into a serious life-and-death threat.
Now what’s to be done?
What do you think should be done?
As everyone stayed silent, Dao Wuya also held his tongue, and the atmosphere in the hall grew even heavier.
Finally, soone couldn’t bear it, stood up abruptly, and slamd the table: “This man has seized the foundation of my Dragon and Tiger Platform, and now not only does he possess Dragon and Tiger Golden Cores and many treasures as resources, he also holds the Subduing Dragon and Tiger monunt. If we continue to let him be, I fear the incident with Heaven Martial of years past may yet again befall us today!”
The man was tall and powerfully built, his presence exuding the aura of Heavenly Punishnts and Earthly Evils, of dragons and tigers, indeed he was the master of Dragon and Tiger Platform, Shi Huxiong!
