Chapter 256 : Chapter 256
Chapter 256: The Great Battle Is Imminent!
【When Xuanyuan Tianji heard this, she fell silent.】
【In Xuanyuan Tianji’s view, at the very beginning, she had indeed wanted nothing more than to return to the Weiyang Immortal Domain. However, after experiencing so much over the years, the thoughts in her heart had begun to waver.】
【Now, in every Immortal Domain she had come to, she had encountered the Eldritch Race. Among them was even the Taixuan Immortal Domain, one of the Ten Great Immortal Domains.】
【Moreover, what Xuanyuan Tianji had not expected even more was that the current Taixuan Immortal Domain did not even have a single Immortal Emperor powerhouse. It only had a mere Immortal Sovereign.】
【If such strength had been placed in the era she had lived in, it would not have qualified to enter the ranks of the Ten Great Immortal Domains at all.】
【Any Immortal Domain that could be called one of the Ten Great Immortal Domains possessed enough strength to stand proudly among the foremost powers of the Great Thousand Worlds.】
【“I am not going back!”】
【After a long time, Xuanyuan Tianji slowly spoke, as though she had made a certain decision.】
【You were not surprised by Xuanyuan Tianji’s decision.】
【Because after experiencing so much, if you were Xuanyuan Tianji, you would think the same way.】
【The current Xuanyuan Tianji was only at the Immortal Realm. Wanting to resist the Eldritch Race was completely impossible for her.】
【There was another very important point as well. Xuanyuan Tianji was no longer certain what the current state of the Weiyang Immortal Domain was, nor whether it was still the same Weiyang Immortal Domain she had once known.】
【At the same time, you suddenly thought of Luo Yiyi.】
【You had been separated from Luo Yiyi for many years. You did not know what her current situation was in the Weiyang Immortal Domain, nor whether she had reclaimed authority over her family.】
【You shook your head and cast all these thoughts aside.】
【Right now, you could barely take care of your own situation. How would you have the time to worry about Luo Yiyi’s affairs? You gave a bitter smile.】
【Immediately afterward, you told Chen Shu and Xuanyuan Tianji that in the war one year from now, they should not waste too much energy on fighting the Eldritch Race.】
【“Bottom-level combatants like us are nothing more than cannon fodder for the higher-ups. They only want to retake the Realm-Boundary Grand Array.”】
【You told the two of them that in the war, they only needed to ensure their own survival. After the high-end combat forces of both sides entered the battlefield, you would think of a way to infiltrate the Eldritch Sect.】
【After the two of them exchanged glances, they nodded and agreed with your words.】
【Both of them knew your abilities. Your attainments in Spatial Laws were the highest they had ever seen.】
【They believed that as long as there was a suitable opportunity, you would definitely be able to infiltrate smoothly.】
【After this meeting, the three of you began cultivating in the Inner Sect of the Great Dream Immortal Sect.】
【From then on, you participated in every monthly martial competition.】
【Faced with everyone’s doubts, you calmly explained that your physique was special and that you needed to consume a great number of resources in order to break through.】
【At the same time, you also told everyone that, as someone only at the Early Immortal Realm, you had absolutely no reason to deliberately suppress your realm and refuse to break through. Even if you were going to suppress your realm, you would only do so after reaching Immortal Realm Great Perfection.】
【When everyone heard you say this, they also felt that something was indeed wrong. It was exactly as you said. You had no reason to deliberately hold back your realm and refuse to break through.】
【In the end, in the face of your explanation and your strength, everyone chose to believe your words.】
【However, there was another important point as well. You were the one who had liberated those ten arenas from the overlords who had occupied them. Now, you had only occupied one arena yourself. There were still nine others left for them to compete over.】
【Time quietly passed, and soon, one year went by.】
【The tenth year!】
【On this day, everyone in the Inner Sect of the Great Dream Immortal Sect gathered together.】
【This was the first time you saw the full strength of the Great Dream Immortal Sect. No one was absent. In the crowd, you saw Li Mutian.】
【Since his cultivation was at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, the position where he stood was higher than that of Immortal Realm disciples like you.】
【You saw a person on the highest pavilion begin to speak.】
【Through the aura this person emitted, you could confirm that he was an Immortal King Realm powerhouse.】
【You heard this person call himself the Dreamless Immortal King. Immediately afterward came a passionate and stirring speech. For a moment, everyone’s fighting spirit and hatred toward the Eldritch Race were ignited.】
【“Lord Immortal Sovereign was grievously wounded in order to protect us. Now, it is time for us to repay Lord Immortal Sovereign.”】
【“The Eldritch Race came from no one knows where. This is a long war. Lord Immortal Sovereign is our final hope. Lord Human Emperor absolutely cannot fall, so we must win this war!”】
【...】
【After those words, even you, who were preparing to leave the Taixuan Immortal Domain, could not help being affected by the Dreamless Immortal King’s speech.】
【Immediately afterward, the Dreamless Immortal King began arranging the specific battle plan.】
【However, that content was not something you were allowed to hear.】
【You only knew that you, Xuanyuan Tianji, and Chen Shu only needed to obey Li Mutian’s arrangements. After all, you were people under his command.】
【One month later!】
【Under the leadership of the Dreamless Immortal King, all the disciples of the Great Dream Immortal Sect boarded Immortal Boats and left the imperial capital of the Great Dream Immortal Dynasty, flying toward the Eldritch Sect.】
【As for you, you sat aboard the Immortal Boat led by Li Mutian.】
【Li Mutian told you that after reaching the Heavenly Immortal Realm, one could apply to become a captain. Every captain could lead one thousand Immortal Realm cultivators.】
【Li Mutian told you that although he could lead one thousand people, he was still only a disciple under an Immortal Lord Elder. There were also many disciples like him.】
【After gaining some understanding, you could be considered to have roughly understood the hierarchy of the Great Dream Immortal Sect.】
【You knew that this hierarchy had been established entirely for the sake of war.】
【Two months later!】
【You arrived at the city where you had first encountered Li Mutian.】
【Li Mutian told you that after leaving this city, you would no longer be within the Human Race’s sphere of influence. You could face attacks from the Eldritch Race at any moment.】
【Sure enough!】
【On the fifth day after you left the city, you encountered an attack from the Eldritch Race.】
【Because the entire Great Dream Immortal Sect was attacking the Eldritch Sect from four directions in a surrounding formation, each force was led by an Immortal King powerhouse.】
【You learned that in battles against the Eldritch Race, as long as the Eldritch Race did not send out an Immortal King, the Great Dream Immortal Sect would not send out an Immortal King either.】
【This time, the first wave of attacks you faced was led by a Heavenly Immortal Realm eldritch being.】
【What you had not expected even more was that in the very first battle, the Great Dream Immortal Sect ordered Li Mutian to lead his team and wipe out the Eldritch Race forces.】
【Thus, you, Xuanyuan Tianji, and Chen Shu had no choice but to follow Li Mutian into battle.】
【Even though you were extremely unwilling.】
【Moreover, you were also very puzzled. Why did they not simply have everyone attack together and quickly eliminate the eldritch troops?】
【The answer to this question was given to you by Xuanyuan Tianji, who stood beside you.】
【“Are you wondering why the Great Dream Immortal Sect would arrange things this way?”】
