In this case, the troop strength is once again stretched thin, making it difficult to fully commit to the Xiping battlefield.
"What is the second major matter?" the Empress asked again.
Zhang Yan Yi’s expression was grave as he said, "I have a premonition that there may be a god incarnating in the West."
A god incarnating? What does that an? Is the Buddhist sect summoning the Worldly Venerate to join the battle? Zhao Douan was taken aback, then suddenly realized sothing was amiss.
If it’s rely summoning a deity, it’s just a magic technique, and certainly wouldn’t make Zhang react as if facing a great enemy.
Unless...
"Heavenly Master, don’t say it’s soone trying to advance to ’Human Immortal.’" Zhao Douan’s voice was hoarse.
Zhang Yan Yi glanced at him and replied, "It’s hard to say."
Thud!
Zhao Douan and the Empress felt a chill run through their hearts.
At this ti, if soone truly touched the Human Immortal Realm, it would be terrible news, whether it was Xuan Yin or the Buddhist Dharma King.
Considering Xuan Yin’s extensive plots spanning decades... is he really scheming for an opportunity?
"I recall, six hundred years ago during the Heavenly Hunting and Destruction of Buddha, it was because the Ksitigarbha Dharma King attempted to rge the Buddhist Tao branches and incarnate as a deity." Zhao Douan spoke up.
Zhang Yan Yi gently nodded and said, "Though I don’t know what they are planning, the Heavenly Book indeed provided inspiration."
Zhao Douan grew anxious: "Then what are we waiting for? You need to team up with His Majesty now, go to the Western Regions and wipe out those two monks; can it be stopped?"
Xu Zhenguan shook his head bitterly, saying, "I’m afraid they can’t be eradicated."
She explained, "Xuan Yin Monk’s true cultivation is absolutely terrifying, at least not much different from Heavenly Master Zhang’s, especially now in the Buddhist and Taoist Ancestral Court, his mana might be even stronger. As for the Dharma King... the nations of the Western Regions all worship the Worldly Venerate, much like , he possesses Emperor Dragon Qi, wielding Heavenly Human battle power, but once outside the Western Regions, his cultivation would decline. And if I go to the Western Regions, leaving Yu Country, entering their domain, it would be disadvantageous... However, this wouldn’t have been a major concern originally, since I am a genuine Heavenly Human now, but..."
Zhao Douan’s face turned grim: "But His Majesty’s battle with Wu Xiankui requires ti to recover to peak condition, His Majesty carries injuries, within Yu Country, since the end of the Eight Princes’ Rebellion, with the return of Dragon Qi, can maintain Heavenly Human battle power, but once entering the Western Regions, losing this support, fighting while injured would be uncertain."
He understood!
In the context of the Empress being injured, if they proactively attack now, going to their ho ground, the possibility of losing is high!
Moreover, would the Buddhist sect, having plotted for so many years, lack a contingency plan?
Hence, blindly visiting them would only lead to disaster.
But if they don’t go, or wait until the Empress’s injuries heal to act, would it already be too late by then?
If those bald monks really achieve so power beyond Heavenly Humans?
By then, wouldn’t they all face reckoning? Wouldn’t this be worse than the chaos within the Eight Princes?
In comparison, the campaign against the Western Regions to seize Xiping Road doesn’t seem critical at all!
"Old Zhang, stop being cryptic, is the situation really this bad? I don’t believe you don’t have a solution." Zhao Douan no longer bothered with superficial decorum, but stared at the Old Heavenly Master and asked.
The Empress also looked at him gravely.
Zhang Yan Yi was silent for a mont, under the gaze of the couple, and said, "For now, the best solution is if I could also step into the Human Immortal Realm, and this, I must rely on His Majesty and... Little Zhao."
Zhao Douan was bewildered: "Relying on ?"
Zhang Yan Yi looked at him seriously: "I need you to take into Mubei Forest. You have a way, don’t you?"

The beginning of the final volu needs several Chapters for transition... hence these Chapters are relatively calm.
