Han Muye watched Su Juesheng’s figure disappear, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.
Now that he controlled Qian Kun, to elevate his cultivation abilities, it was not enough just to refine his own Origin. He also needed to control a part of the Great Pantheon Plane, transforming the external landscape into the internal landscape.
Only by refining heaven and earth into himself and differentiating Qian Kun could he step into the Yinyang Realm.
Although the sword in his hand could directly carve out Yin Yang with one stroke, the Qiankun Realm within his grasp wasn’t strong enough to support the Yinyang Realm.
This was also the reason why so many powerful beings on the Great Pantheon Plane needed to join the army and invade other planes after stepping into the Qiankun Realm.
The reason why the Great Pantheon Plane was growing stronger was also because countless cultivators went forth to invade and devour the Origin World, then nourished the plane in return.
“According to the rules of the Great Pantheon Plane, all sects within a hundred thousand miles must go to war once every 300 years,”
“The current chaotic war between the All-Encompassing Sword Sect and the surrounding sects is actually in preparation for the impending Outer Realm conquest,”
Without the cultivation abilities of the Life and Death Realm, one simply cannot leave the Great Pantheon Plane.
However, such battles could include some subsidiary universes and worlds of the Great Pantheon Plane.
Universe battles, world battles, all those below the Prime Origin Realm, are naturally just expendable cannon fodder.
Whether it’s the All-Encompassing Sword Sect or the Heavenly Roaring Sect and Fearless Vajra Sect, in reality, they all want to seize resources to slightly enhance their power at critical moments.
This is the real reason behind the siege of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect this time.
For Han Muye, the sect warfare didn’t matter, but he needed to merge with the power of heaven and earth, to enrich and expand his own Qian Kun, so as to divide Yin Yang with a single stroke of his sword.
Therefore, he was definitely going to join this expedition.
“I wonder what they will think if I take the initiative to say I want to join the campaign of conquering heaven?”
Han Muye whispered with a light chuckle.
While others were trying every means not to join the campaign of conquering heaven, he wanted to go.
If Xia Mingtang knew he wanted to join the campaign of conquering heaven, perhaps he wouldn’t have arranged for Moon-Encompassing Peak to station here, right?
…
At the Allied Forces Camp, the tent was filled with powerful figures from all sides at this moment.
The atmosphere inside the tent was somewhat oppressive.
Now that the All-Encompassing Sword Sect had sent a reward, Moon-Encompassing Peak might take the initiative to strike.
Although Han Muye said he would give pointers to Su Juesheng, letting Su Juesheng make a move, it couldn’t be guaranteed that the disciples from Skywind Ridge wouldn’t rush over now.
No one was willing to truly fight to the death with the disciples of Moon-Encompassing Peak.
“Gentlemen, given the current situation, we could actually retreat a little…” Before the speaker could finish, he was stared down by Xu Tang seated at the head of the table.
Among the Allied Forces, some had faltering battle intent, while others were determined to defeat the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.
“We could also take a detour, bypassing Skywind Ridge and striking directly at All-Encompassing Peak,” another white-bearded elder suggested, sweeping his gaze over the crowd.
His words brightened the eyes of many, but just as many shook their heads.
“How could we take a detour? Not to mention how long it would take to bypass Skywind Ridge, just being sandwiched between Skywind Ridge and the All-Encompassing Sword Sect’s base would leave us with enemies front and rear in any advance or retreat…” The speaker shook his head, not continuing.
Now, when no one dared to engage Skywind Ridge directly, who would expect to take a detour?
The atmosphere in the tent became extremely oppressive for a time.
“Heh, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect only gave ten Great Pantheon Stones to Moon-Encompassing Peak, do you think Han Muye from Moon-Encompassing Peak would be content?”
Elder Shao Lin, sitting at the head, suddenly spoke up.
This made the multitude of experts below pause in astonishment.
Ten Great Pantheon Stones?
Moon-Encompassing Peak, which had held off the Allied Forces for so long, was only rewarded with ten Great Pantheon Stones?
Was this a dismissive handout?
If Moon-Encompassing Peak had any self-respect, they would never accept such humiliation.
“No wonder Elder Shao Lin is so composed, it seems the elder foresaw the internal strife of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect long ago,”
Xu Tang looked at Shao Lin and spoke with a light laugh.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the tent became lively.
No one brought up the notion of advancing or retreating any further.
They were just waiting for the All-Encompassing Sword Sect to fall into chaos.
As for what Han Muye said about letting Su Juesheng kill everyone here in a month, that was just a joke.
No one took it seriously.
————————————
All-Encompassing Peak.
Since Moon-Encompassing Peak had been blocking the enemy at Skywind Ridge, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect had been waiting and watching.
Honestly, no one expected Moon-Encompassing Peak to hold out for so long.
Moon-Encompassing Peak being completely wiped out, Moon-Encompassing Peak retreating on all fronts, Moon-Encompassing Peak asking for reinforcements — everyone had speculated on these outcomes.
The only thing they didn’t anticipate was that Moon-Encompassing Peak would defend Skywind Ridge for over a month without any call for help or reinforcements.
In fact, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect had already prepared a second and third wave of troops to aid in the defense, yet they hadn’t moved out.
After all, they couldn’t send reinforcements before Moon-Encompassing Peak had even asked for them, could they?
Whether it was the sect master Xia Mingtang or the other peak masters and elders, for a moment they were all at a loss.
This is why support had been delayed in reaching Skywind Ridge.
“I suppose Han Muye of Moon-Encompassing Peak has already received the rewards given to him. If he’s smart, he’ll send someone to ask for help, and maybe we can still save Moon-Encompassing Peak,” a Green-robed Old Man said softly in the hall.
The combat strength of Moon-Encompassing Peak was a surprise, and thoughts of letting them diminish had slowly changed.
Moon-Encompassing Peak was also a legacy of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect; if they were willing to share their resources and heritage, it wouldn’t be unacceptable to allow them to continue.
Consider it a lesson for Moon-Encompassing Peak.
“Heh, ten Great Pantheon Stones to let Han Muye of Moon-Encompassing Peak know that the sect won’t support him. Let the disciples of Moon-Encompassing Peak truly despair. Afterward, when our forces march in and give them hope, they will be overflowing with gratitude towards the sect,” the talking elder said with a smug look on his face.
How much to reward Moon-Encompassing Peak was a matter of discussion.
They all knew that Moon-Encompassing Peak was only holding Skywind Ridge with the help of the activated array.
Such a consumption, they found painful to even think about.
Moon-Encompassing Peak couldn’t possibly hold out much longer.
At this moment, Moon-Encompassing Peak needed resources and reinforcements more than anything.
Everything had been planned, just waiting for Han Muye to back down.
At the head of the table, Xia Mingtang nodded slightly, a suppressed fierceness flashing in his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, his expression suddenly changed.
His gaze fixed on the entrance to the hall.
Somehow, a figure clad in a gray robe with a black three-foot-long sword strapped to his back stood there.
When had this person arrived?
Who was this person?
Inside the hall, the previously noisy chatter gradually fell silent.
Everyone slowly turned their heads towards the entrance.
Many shuddered, taking sharp intakes of breath.
What kind of powerhouse could have arrived so silently?
“Who are you—?”
A disciple holding a three-foot-long sword at the entrance shouted lowly, stepping forward.
But as the disciple, who was close to reaching the Dao Realm, managed to take only a single step, he stiffened.
A three-foot-long sword had pierced his throat.
Murder!
Directly in front of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect’s grand hall!
In the hall, streaks of sword light and blood essence rose up.
Seated at the head, Xia Mingtang’s body released brilliant sword light and blood essence, merging into a column of smoke which then condensed into a three-foot-long sword. With a wave of his hand, it flew towards the entrance.
“Kill—”
Rage was conveyed in Xia Mingtang’s voice.
As he shouted, the sword light appeared in front of the entrance.
“Clang—”
The sound of clashing swords echoed, shaking the entire hall.
Xia Mingtang’s sword thrust was met by a clear sword edge.
Holding the sword, Su Juesheng’s eyes burst with endless vitality.
“All-Encompassing Sword Sect’s sect master Xia Mingtang, you’re nothing special.”
