Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill - Chapter 1011 - 50: The Plan (Part 2)
Chapter 1011: Chapter 50: The Plan (Part 2)
“The real you?” Yuanhua couldn’t think clearly for a moment.
Wang Sheng smiled and then continued, “Let me put it this way, Daoist Yuanhua, when you planned to enter the Newborn Land, I was watching from the Old Land Starry Sky…”
As soon as these words were spoken, Yuanhua instantly thought of something: “Could it be…”
“Just as you thought.” Seeing that Yuanhua had understood, Wang Sheng nodded with a smile, “In times of necessity, I can let us have an extra top-tier Saint Emperor. So, Daoist Yuanhua, are you reassured now?”
Inside, Yuanhua was greatly shocked, and it took a lot of effort to stabilize his mindset.
“Daoist, have you never used your full strength against us?”
“Of course not.” Wang Sheng didn’t say much about the connection between his incarnation and his true body.
Although the incarnation was powerful, without the Destruction Spear, the Five Elements Sword, and the temporary enhancements from the true body, it would be impossible to contend with two top-tier Saint Emperors.
At most, it would reach the level of an ordinary top-tier Saint Emperor, like the previously one-on-two battled Shi Ming and You Ming.
However, these things naturally could not be spoken of.
And obviously, Yuanhua didn’t think this way.
Of course, he also noticed that Wang Sheng didn’t want to elaborate and didn’t intend to dig deeper, choosing instead to return to the original topic, “Since it’s already confirmed with Daoist Wu Sheng, the next steps are simple. I hope Daoist Wu Sheng can do his utmost to kill a top-tier Saint Emperor. Even if it’s not possible, try to render them incapable of battle for a short time.”
“Rest assured, since I brought it up, I will naturally go all out.”
It was Wang Sheng himself who first proposed this and disdained underhanded tricks.
“Then I’ll trouble Daoist Wu Sheng. However, some intelligence needs to be shared with Daoist Long Yue and Daoist Xing Hou. Is Daoist Wu Sheng willing?”
“No problem at all.”
“Good.” Yuanhua nodded.
Wang Sheng was willing to share the secret, which made him trust more.
Subsequently, he took his leave, having acquired the information he wanted, so there was no need to stay longer.
Time flowed by.
The situation seemed unchanged.
Conquest Sect constantly faced pressure from both the Devouring Sect and resentment, severely lacking manpower and heavily burdened.
The situation, which originally balanced with the Devouring Sect and even gradually took advantage, seemed to revert to its initial state.
Both sides were disadvantaged, both hard to deal with.
Especially resentment.
Although over time, each cultivator has summarized more methods against resentment, as long as a planet’s resentment doesn’t comprise too many deceased Ninth Realm and above powerful beings, a Tenth Realm cultivator can suppress it.
Previously, the world’s resentment could cause trouble for a Saint Emperor Level, but the situation is much improved now.
Yet, being able to deal with it only means suppression.
The problem cannot be completely solved unless the resentment is exceptionally weak.
In essence, the problem remains unresolved.
Furthermore, due to the war between both sides, many strong beings have died, many being engulfed into resentment, exacerbating the problem.
Overall, it’s just maintaining the status quo.
This still without particularly strong resentment appearing, which would require a Saint Emperor Level to resolve, would be an enormous problem.
The Devouring Sect, too, evidently has cultivators capable of seeing the situation clearly.
Most Devouring Sect cultivators fight on their own, but there are some covert communications, and they have their own plans.
“How’s the situation?”
“More smoothly than imagined. The starry sky is vast, and Conquest Sect is too busy to care for everything. Success is imminent. Once released, it will be Conquest Sect’s biggest disaster, resolvable only by a Saint Emperor.”
“What are our losses?”
“Countless deaths, as we were the first targets attacked. If not for our race’s special nature and possessing Secret Techniques, this plan could never be realized.”
“No matter. As long as the plan succeeds, everything is worth it. Success will bring us immense achievements.”
“Haha, heaven aids us. Without the appearance of resentment, this opportunity might not exist.”
Both figures chuckled.
Initially, he also had a plan.
But it was extremely unstable, with a high chance of failure.
Then, soon after, resentment was discovered.
This made their plan much more perfect.
Execution became easier and carried less risk.
This was something he never anticipated before the invasion.
Meanwhile, in the Devouring Sect’s Saint Emperor stronghold, preparations continued for an opportunity.
Once the opportunity arises, it would be their moment to act.
“I hope they seize this rare opportunity…”
Time flew by, and a month passed.
The situation still seemed unchanged.
Year 30 of the War Era, mid-year.
Conquest Sect saints patrolled across various galaxies as usual.
There was also a rotation of saints.
The intensity of the war was great; even saints found it hard to persist continuously. To ensure condition, there’s an annual rotation.
Kongxiang Star Domain needed such a rotation.
“Chi Yang, you’ve stood firm for five or six years; it’s time for rotation, or you won’t hold up.”
“Zi Xuan, I can still hold out.” Chi Yang shook his head, expressing refusal.
Zi Xuan looked at Chi Yang’s listless spirit, shaking his head.
This was clearly just forcing himself.
But Zi Xuan could understand. Chi Yang’s family was exterminated by the Devouring Sect.
Among them was someone Chi Yang deeply valued.
Therefore, Chi Yang refused rotation, persistently staying till now.
Over five years, he had killed two Devouring Sect Eleventh Realm Saints and over a dozen Great Venerables.
He had made significant achievements.
Yet now, he still seemed unsatisfied, or perhaps had not found the true enemy, unwilling to leave.
But now, it’s unacceptable for him to continue like this.
“Chi Yang, the Central Star ordered you to return for debriefing, forbidding further stay.”
The Central Star recorded every Saint Emperor, gave Chi Yang a five-year limit, already an extent.
Further continuation increased Chi Yang’s risk.
“This is a mandatory order, not allowing refusal.”
“Mandatory order… I can still continue.” Chi Yang seemed somewhat unwilling.
But the Central Star’s order wasn’t casually defiable.
Zi Xuan anticipated this.
Because Chi Yang refused many times with the same reason.
Zi Xuan spoke leisurely, “Worry not. The Central Star isn’t barring your return but having you go rest; once your condition is verified to recover, you’ll have a chance to return.”
“But…”
“The Central Star states if you refuse further, it’ll employ force.” Zi Xuan interrupted Chi Yang.
Once spoken, Chi Yang could no longer refuse; the Central Star was adamant on his return. He had no way to refuse.
After a long while, he nodded, slowly uttering a single: “Fine!”
Zi Xuan nodded, saying, “The next duties fall to me. If you want to return, you can swiftly relieve me.”
Not every Saint liked battlefront combat like Chi Yang.
Chi Yang said no more, silently proceeding with handover.
There weren’t many matters, so the transfer was quickly completed.
Zi Xuan ultimately took over Kongxiang Star Domain matters, then escorted Chi Yang away.
“What a pity…”
Zhi Xuan looked at Chi Yang’s spiritless form and shook his head.
This was clearly him forcing himself.
Not that every Saint enjoyed being on the frontline like Chi Yang.
Chi Yang said no more, pursuing the handover quietly.
The transfer was completed swiftly without much issue.
Zi Xuan finally took over responsibilities in Kongxiang Star Domain, seeing Chi Yang off.
“What a pity…”
“It’s a pity you came at such a coincidental time. If not, it wouldn’t necessarily be you who died; blame it on your misfortune…”
Zi Xuan suddenly sensed something was wrong. But unprepared, how could he resist the long-prepared Chi Yang?
In an instant, the detector on Zi Xuan fired up, and he felt it activating on his body.
“Parasitic Race, why…?”
The Parasitic Race, they had always been on guard and also devised detection equipment.
Such as this time, Zi Xuan carried this equipment, confirming Chi Yang was not of the Parasitic Race.
But now, Chi Yang was clearly of the Parasitic Race.
He was filled with doubt, but the Parasitic Race gave no answers, eliminating him cleanly.
After dealing with Zi Xuan, Chi Yang gazed in a direction once more.
“Proceed with the action. The long-fabricated plan from countless kin is finally reaching the last step. The Saint Emperor, ultimately, bad luck has befallen you…”
In an instant, Kongxiang Star Domain exploded with terrifying resentment, shaking half the starry sky…
