Chapter 165 A Gathering of Geniuses
When Lyu Liang and his companions ca to the temporary headquarters of the Immortal Allies, they felt real shock, brought on by the war.
Within a boundless Great Defense Formation, there stood various architectural complexes.
According to the founding father of Sword Character, all the 12 armies of the Human Clan in the Chaotic World, as well as the reinforcents of the Demon Clan, the Spirit Clan, and the Ghost Clan, were gathered here.
“You ca on ti. Half an hour later, there will be a routine eting here, and you can join it. There will be so points you won’t understand, and I will explain to you later.” Lyu Liang nodded at the founding father’s words. He knew his position clearly—no matter how aweso he was outside, he was just a “freshman” here on the battlefield.
“Oh yes, there’s still ti. There are so small conflicts with the enemy on the main battlefield, and your brother’s puppet troop is fighting with them. Do you want to go and see?” Xuan Nyu Fairy pointed at the distance, which made Lyu Liang perk up imdiately.
“Yes! Yes! I’ve never seen the war! Let’s go now, or we may miss it!” Before Lyu Liang could say anything, Liu Jiawen exclaid, excited and curious.
But even if she hadn’t yelled that she wanted to have a look, Lyu Liang would certainly go. After all, the one fighting on the battlefield, was his second brother, and he couldn’t just leave him to fight alone.
Then, they ca to the headquarters and claid their respective cave residences. After that, the founding father led them to the main battlefield.
Along the way, the wounded were everywhere, armless, legless, and so beyond healing, waiting helplessly for death.
Lyu Liang looked aghast at the sight of so much destruction, and even Liu Jiawen, who was initially curious, compressed her lips and remained silent. The others had stern looks on their faces, too.
The founding father seed to sense their feelings and said in a low voice, “There were not so many people wounded before, but since the mysterious relic was discovered, the number of the wounded on both sides have increased dramatically. Alas!”
“The mysterious relic? What is it? What does it have to do with casualties?” Lyu Liang couldn’t help but ask.
“I planned to tell you about it, after the eting, but since you asked, I will brief you now. Do you rember the cannon-like artifacts around the transmission formation in Jibo Territory? We discovered them in the relic. You can use them to launch a Spiritual-Qi bomb, which is powerful enough to destroy at least five masters at the Peak of Almighty Immortal, by simply fueling them with Primordial Qi.” The founding father’s brief words startled the six greatly.
“No wonder I had a strange feeling about them. They should have such imnse power! How many do we have? Does the enemy also have them?” Licking her lips, Liu Jiawen asked the questions, which all of them were concerned about.
The founding father of Sword Character, nodded and continued, “When the relic appeared, both sides sent people to explore it and gained sothing. We have 22 cannons, and they 21. Almost the sa!” “Due to these cannons being included in the war, our casualties have doubled, as compared with those in the past.”
“Then, then we should send more people in and take away a hundred cannons. Just bombard the enemy with them, and things will naturally be settled!” Liu Jiawen’s eyes were glistening at the mont.
Hearing her words, the founding father shook his head, and said, with a wry smile, “If it could be so easy, the war would have ended before you ca. The relic was discovered five years ago, and these are all cannons we’ve got, during those years. To scrabble for them, over a hundred lives on each side have been sacrificed. So these cannons are indeed hard-earned! All right, we’ve co to the front line. Let’s focus on the war first. I will tell you more after the eting.”
At the mont, they had reached the edge of the Great Defense Formation zone. In front of them was a shocking sweep of chaotic auras, amidst the wild tangle of nurous giant puppets and beasts.
“These are... wild beasts! So many! Are they from the Nether Big World?” Lyu Liang gasped and had a grave look on his face.
“They should all be at the Wildness level. Could it be the Kong family... It is tricky now!” Liu Jiahao, who had been silent all this while, said in a serious tone, and his eyebrows were furrowed.
Looking at the chaos in front of him, Lyu Liang felt profoundly helpless inside—the war was so massive that it couldn’t be settled, even with several n’s forces.
The bell sounded for the 90-minute break, and both sides began withdrawing simultaneously. Several n dressed in jasper uniforms, appeared instantly in the formation in the Nether Big World, with whistles in their mouths. When they blew the whistles, all the wild beasts, so long as they could still move, retreated hurriedly to the formation.
“It’s indeed the Kong family! What are they thinking about? Do the other Remote Antiquity families know about this?!” Liu Jiawen opened her eyes wide, with a mixed look of amazent and anger.
“Wen, well, we will also join in here. As long as the Space of Goddess Nyu Wa remains unaffected, and the wild beasts at the Antiquity level don’t appear here, those seniors won’t intervene.” Liu Jiahao sighed. He was much calr than his sister.
“Savior! It is these people who caught my child! Although they are not the sa people, they are in the sa uniforms! Our four wild beasts at the Antiquity level have disappeared into the forbidden area of Remote Antiquity, and the Forbidden Lords are investigating it! If it is they who did it, we won’t let go of them!” The woman in the cave residence was so outraged that Lyu Liang could feel her intense murderous intent, emanating from her speech.
“Do they have wild beasts at the Antiquity level?” Lyu Liang turned to Liu Jiawen and Liu Jiahao, hoping to gather more information.
“That’s impossible! Unless the Kong family want to be expelled from the Remote Antiquity families! We have reached an agreent with the forbidden area of the Remote Antiquity, that we can’t go there to catch wild beasts! The Kong family have a contract with the wild beasts, so it’s no wonder that they managed to ta so wild beasts, but none of them would be at the Antiquity level!” Liu Jiahao said categorically, and then he added, “If they violated the contract, they would have to deal with the wild beasts, who are powerful enough to destroy their whole family!”
At this mont, the puppet troop ca back to the formation, and with two bright flashes, Li Wuyi and Chishui Fairy appeared in front of them.
“I’ll go count our losses, and you can get together with your third brother. With Master Haotian and junior brother Bihuo here, our strength has improved significantly, so there should be no large losses this ti. Just leave it to .” Chishui Fairy said lightly and clapped Li Wuyi’s shoulder, at the sa ti.
Li Wuyi smirked and cried when he turned around, “Third brother, you’re finally here! Holy sh*t! They all know I’m your second brother, so I haven’t had a break these days!”
Lyu Liang also put his concerns aside, and walked to his second brother, with a smile. After they greeted each other, Lyu Liang introduced his companions to Li Wuyi, who soon got to know them, with his easy-going personality.
Then, the eting began. Li Wuyu did not plan to attend the eting because he had to make the war summary. Lyu Liang and his companions followed the founding father to the temporary headquarters, in the core zone.
When they ca to a grand palace, the founding father led them in and ssaged Lyu Liang at the sa ti, “You don’t need to ask if you have any doubts, I will explain to you after the eting. Besides, several extraordinary geniuses just like you, will also be there. Anyway, you will be in contact them sooner or later, so it’s good to et them first.”
Then, they entered the palace and finally ca to a spacious hall.
At the mont, quite a few people were already sitting there. Only one of the nine seats was vacant, which was evidently reserved for the founding father.
Four people were waiting below, all exuding extraordinary auras. Each of them, either mastered unique Cultivation thods, or had rare treasures.
When Lyu Liang and his companions ca in, they imdiately beca the centre of attention. Fortunately, they were able to sit together, since there were many seats inside.
Just as Lyu Liang seated himself, he felt several Divine Senses coming at him, from different directions—those geniuses were, undoubtedly, probing him.
Theoretically, it was an impolite manner. But Lyu Liang could understand —these were all outstanding figures in different fields, and now that Lyu Liang’s side was so prominent, it was only natural that they wanted to probe him.
It was not strange to be accompanied by five cultivators at the Peak of Almighty Immortal, but Lyu Liang’s cultivation was rely at the Late-stage of Fairy Immortal, which was quite rare and intriguing.
“You are Lyu Liang? Haha, sorry. I couldn’t help hearing from you, so I searched you with my Divine Sense. I’m so sorry! I’m Duan Xiaofang. After this eting, let’s drink together. It is my way of apologizing. Please don’t decline it!” A joyful voice ca to Lyu Liang’s Divine Soul. He looked up and found a white-robed young man, winking at him. This man was supposedly Duan Xiaofang.
This man was wearing a white embroidered robe, not so handso, yet had distinctive confidence and vigor in his brows and eyes. And his words left a favorable impression on Lyu Liang.
Lyu Liang could feel three Divine Senses coming over him at the sa ti, which ant there was still one person who had yet to probe him. Lyu Liang already knew who the other two were. After all, such powerful figures were easy to recognize, as long as they did not deliberately hide their cultivation.
The only person who did not probe Lyu Liang, was a dark-skinned young man, with ordinary clothes and appearance, looking almost as honest and silly as Dumb! His aura was weird, yet sohow familiar, to Lyu Liang.
Just when Lyu Liang was wondering why the eting hadn’t begun, a soft fragrance wafted in from outside, and then a gentle laugh could be heard. “Ho ho, I’ve been waiting for brother Lyu for a long ti, and finally, you’re here! With so many beauties around, you are indeed extraordinary!”
A handso young man, wearing a purple-golden cap and the dragon-scale armor, ca in slowly, accompanied by a fog-like figure.
Lyu Liang was stunned and the young man ca up to him. He cupped his hands and greeted, “I’m Huangfu Gang. I’ve heard a lot about you, and today, it’s my great honor to et you here!”
Lyu Liang rose hastily and greeted him back, “I’m very flattered. I was able to gain today’s fa because I’ve had so good opportunities and received assistance from so powerful figures. These are all my friends, who are here to help .”
Huangfu Gang clapped Lyu Liang’s shoulder and said with a laugh, “Brother Lyu, you are so modest! All of us present here, have also had good opportunities, but none of us can save a world with our own strength. I’m very eager to see your extraordinary performance in the relic, three months later!”
Then, Huangfu Gang sat beside Lyu Liang. At this mont, the dark-skinned young man, who had been silent up to now, ssaged Lyu Liang suddenly, “Keep away from him, or you won’t even know how you died!”
