Chapter 1649: Chapter 1339: You’re Going to War with Two Great Immortal Sects at Once? Are You Crazy?
Wang Chixuan didn’t stay long in the Land of Chaos; he quickly returned to the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty through the Transmission Array used by Zhan Mo.
At this time, Lu Jingfu was in a pavilion on a tall mountain, playing Go with a man dressed in a Blood Robe.
At that moment, the man in the Blood Robe said, “Soon, our Blood Eagle Hall will go to war with the Mysterious Moon Palace and the Chiyan Sect. We hope King Guangren can provide us with some assistance.”
Although the Blood Eagle Hall has three Immortal Kings and is now considered a medium power in the Southern Domain, compared to an Immortal Dynasty like the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty, which has existed for countless ages, its foundation is not deep.
For Blood Eagle Hall to simultaneously go to war with two Immortal Sects, it needs a vast amount of resources.
Upon hearing Illusion Demon Immortal Monarch’s words, Lu Jingfu’s hand, which was about to place a piece on the board, paused. He looked up at Illusion Demon Immortal Monarch and said, “Waging war on two great Immortal Sects at once? Are you mad?”
In the past, when Blood Eagle Hall attacked Immortal Sects, they always attacked one at a time. Moreover, most of the Immortal Sects Blood Eagle Hall destroyed did not have an Immortal King. Even if some did, those Immortal Kings were close to their limit, entangled by Death Qi, unable to wield the power of an Immortal King.
But now, both Yun Yudie and Chiyan Immortal King are at their peak Immortal King strength. To attack these two Immortal Sects simultaneously now would come at a great cost.
Illusion Demon Immortal Monarch said calmly, “My lord, we have prepared for this day for over a hundred years. As long as we destroy the Mysterious Moon Palace and Chiyan Sect, and acquire their cultivation resources and lands, our Blood Eagle Hall might ascend to a top-tier power in the Southern Domain.”
Hearing this, Lu Jingfu laughed and said, “A top-tier power without an Immortal Venerate?”
Illusion Demon Immortal Monarch wasn’t angered by Lu Jingfu’s ridicule and said calmly, “Surely, my lord knows that the Immortal Law we cultivate is a bit unique. Perhaps after capturing these two Immortal Sects, our Hall Master might just breakthrough?”
Upon Illusion Demon Immortal Monarch’s words, Lu Jingfu realized that the evil technique cultivated by Blood Eagle Hall required many lives, and once Blood Eagle Hall waged war on the Mysterious Moon Palace and the Chiyan Sect, many would surely die, thus becoming an opportunity for Blood Eagle Hall’s three Immortal Kings to cultivate.
It’s possible that by then, one of the three of them might break through to the Immortal Venerable Realm with a surge of Blood Qi.
Thinking of this, Lu Jingfu’s face turned a bit grim.
If Blood Eagle Hall only had Immortal Kings, he might still barely intimidate them, after all, the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty doesn’t just have one or two Immortal Kings. Not to mention their Royal Family has several Immortal King level ancestors, and the Royal Family’s tributors are all at the Immortal King Realm.
But the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty has a significant weakness — it has no Immortal Venerate. Without an Immortal Venerate, no matter how deep the foundation, it’s hard to contend with forces that do have an Immortal Venerable level existence.
Fortunately, the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty annually offers tribute to the Heavenly Splendor Hall, which is the largest force in the Southern Domain, and is under the protection of the Heavenly Splendor Hall. This has allowed the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty to endure even without an Immortal Venerate.
But if Blood Eagle Hall truly produces an Immortal Venerate, given Blood Eagle Hall’s conduct, they might very well covet the entire Tianxia Immortal Dynasty.
In the past, the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty could rely on Heavenly Splendor Hall, but now Heavenly Splendor Hall’s focus is on subduing the Demon Emperor; they have no time to protect the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty.
If Blood Eagle Hall attacks the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty, how will the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty withstand it?
Blood Eagle Hall is too strong; it poses a massive threat to the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty.
However…
Even knowing that Blood Eagle Hall is a threat to the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty, it seems he has no other choice now. Other royal capitals of the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty have drawn in many top-tier forces, and if he wishes to contend for the position of Immortal Dynasty Master, he too needs the support of top-tier forces.
If Blood Eagle Hall indeed produces an Immortal Venerate, he might not even need to wait until his father passes to rise to the position of Immortal Dynasty Master.
After a moment of contemplation, Lu Jingfu said, “Let me reconsider this matter. Heavenly Splendor Hall has issued an Immortal Order; all forces in the Southern Domain should focus their resources on dealing with the Demon Emperor.”
Upon hearing Lu Jingfu mention the Heavenly Splendor Hall, Illusion Demon Immortal Monarch immediately understood Lu Jingfu’s concern, but he didn’t say anything to dispel Lu Jingfu’s worries.
All have lived for a billion years; they’re no fools. If he tries to say something to dispel Lu Jingfu’s concerns now, telling him that Blood Eagle Hall has no designs on the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty, it might increase Lu Jingfu’s worries instead.
Too much explanation might seem like they’re hiding something, so he simply said nothing, letting Lu Jingfu make his own decision.
After all, there isn’t just one King in the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty — it’s not just Lu Jingfu. Blood Eagle Hall can collaborate with anyone, and he believes he knows what Lu Jingfu will choose in the end.
Subsequently, Illusion Demon Immortal Monarch stood up and said, “I await your good news, my lord.”
The moment these words fell, Illusion Demon Immortal Monarch turned and left. Seeing Illusion Demon Immortal Monarch not even saying anything to dispel his concerns, Lu Jingfu increasingly felt that Blood Eagle Hall had other plans concerning the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty.
However, if he doesn’t cooperate with Blood Eagle Hall, Blood Eagle Hall might find other brothers of his to collaborate with. If those brothers collaborate with Blood Eagle Hall, he might stand no chance of becoming the Immortal Dynasty Master.
For a moment, Lu Jingfu was filled with inner conflict.
Indeed, he desires the position of Immortal Dynasty Master, but he wants to last there long after he sits down, not to be kicked off just after becoming the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty’s Master.
If he gets kicked off just a few days after taking the position, what’s the point in vying for it?
Just as Lu Jingfu was pondering what choice to make, a guard came to the pavilion’s outside, “My lord, Commander Wang has returned.”
Lu Jingfu came back to his senses, “Let him come to the mountaintop.”
In a short while, Wang Chixuan arrived outside the mountaintop pavilion, and Wang Chixuan joyfully said, “My lord, good news!”
Lu Jingfu asked, “What did that Immortal King say?”
Wang Chixuan replied, “That Immortal King accepted the gift we sent and even said if there’s anything we need help with, we can ask him for assistance.”
Lu Jingfu said, “It seems those herbs are indeed of some use to him.”
“Perhaps he’s either nearing his lifespan’s end or being hunted by enemies, so he’s hiding in the Land of Chaos.”
When sending the gift, Lu Jingfu deliberately chose some herbs capable of restoring cultivation. He initially suspected that the Immortal King hiding in the Land of Chaos might be injured, thus hiding from a powerful enemy there; otherwise, why would an Immortal King hide in such a place?
Lu Jingfu sighed; even drawing in that Immortal King doesn’t seem to help much with the current situation.
Since Blood Eagle Hall says they’re going to war with Mysterious Moon Palace and Chiyan Sect, then it’s likely a war will happen. If he refuses Blood Eagle Hall now, when Blood Eagle Hall truly produces an Immortal Venerate, the first to suffer will probably be himself.
Thinking of this, Lu Jingfu finally decided to assist Blood Eagle Hall in attacking the Mysterious Moon Palace and Chiyan Sect.
