Chapter 971: Plan

The Fourth Prince believed that with just the information on the Divine Sun Emperor’s treasures alone, the various major influences invited by Duan Tianhao would send representatives over. This was the first time the strongest few influences in this world would be meeting.

It was especially true for the plains and the Empire, the Mage Association and the Church of Universal Truth, as well as the many countries in the north that was under the Church’s rule. There were countless deep and great feuds between these factions, and now that they were going to meet, they might just end up breaking out in a brawl.

The thought of all the complications involved made the Fourth Prince’s head ache.

The most crucial thing was that even though the Empire now had the help from the Black Mage King and Gold Mage King, they still had no means to take charge of the situation. Just the thought of the many Guardian Kings from the Church made his scalp turn numb.

“What is this Duan Tianhao trying to do? To think that he is calling together so many experts in the land… Is he so unafraid of death?”

The Fourth Prince still could not understand why Duan Tianhao was trying to do this. The consequence of calling together so many top notch influences from across the land was not something that Duan Tianhao would be able to handle.

This also made it hard for the Fourth Prince to guess what Duan Tianhao’s goal was.

Just then, the Fourth Prince felt his vision turn blurry, and a hint of surprise immediately flashed on his face. “Xingjian!”

Fang Xingjian’s appearance before him naturally meant that he had cleared the trial successfully.

At the thought of this, a hint of disbelief flashed in his eyes. “You…”

“I’ve succeeded,” Fang Xingjian said with a nod. “Have there been any major events recently?” Fang Xingjian asked this because he possessed the Sudden Inspiration and yet he had not sensed any of the people close to him running into any danger. That was why he came to ask the Fourth Prince.

The Fourth Prince exhaled and suddenly seemed relaxed. With Fang Xingjian having made a breakthrough to tier six of the Divine Country, it meant that the entire Empire would become stable as well. With such a great pillar supporting the country, what was there for them to be afraid of?

…

Concurrently, in the plains, there was a stretch of barren land that had no hint of greenery, just crushed rock. On the gritty wasteland, there was only one huge stone pillar which towered into the sky. It pierced toward the sky like a sharp sword, filled with a bleak and unyielding will.

At the very top of the stone pillar, Duan Tianhao looked down coldly on the vast land. Waves flowed in his eyes as unknown thoughts ran through his mind.

Behind him, his younger sister Duan Ziyan looked at him with a worried expression. “Brother, are you really going to do this?”

Ever since Duan Tianhao’s and Duan Ziyan’s clan had been wiped out, they went to a piece of forbidden land to seek the assistance of the Plenary Foundation Septet’s fat priest.

Duan Tianhao had accepted the priest’s transmission of his martial arts through his will. He had opened up the Spiritual Root in his body and started cultivating the Astral Translocating Art.

Everything he had done so far was to seek revenge from Tyrant and Fang Xingjian.

Hearing Duan Ziyan’s concern, Duan Tianhao smirked and said, “Master and the other five Martial Uncles have all escaped. After their cultivations have recovered, who in this world can be a match for them?”

Six tier six Divine level experts… Duan Tianhao could not think of anyone who could be a match for them. This was especially so when the Plenary Foundation Septet’s leader was also going to break out from the confinement soon. With that, there would be no one in the who could stop them now.

Duan Ziyan said worriedly, “But the Church of Universal Truth and the Mage Association are both influences with a strong background. The 12 Mage Kings, 21 Guardian Kings, and the three Saints… There are so many experts taking charge, and they might even be hiding countless fatal attacking means.”
