After hearing Fang Xingjian’s words, the Immortality Saint’s gaze immediately narrowed as he said, “What? All seven seals have been broken?”
He stood up and a hint of anxiety flashed on his face. “It’s going to be troublesome now. These seven person were at tier six of the Divine level 1,000 years ago. Although 1,000 years have passed and most of their strength have been converted into lifespans, a tier six Divine level expert is still a tier six Divine level expert.
“Seven people... will be hard to handle.”
Regardless of how weak their opponents were, they were still at tier six of the Divine level. Moreover, there were seven of them altogether. Just the thought of this number made the Immortality Saint’s heart palpitate.
“Since they’ve already broken out, why haven’t they done anything yet?” The Immortality Saint said with a frown. “Moreover, we haven’t discovered them through our Sudden Inspiration either.”
“They’ve probably hidden in some small world, breaking off from the main world’s timeline,” Fang Xingjian. “The crucial thing is what they are going to do.”
The Immortality Saint’s gaze lit up slightly. “You’re saying... the Divine Treasures Meeting?”
“This is the only thing I can think of at the moment,” Fang Xingjian analyzed. “The septet’s objectives in coming here 1,000 years ago was to get their hands on the Divine Sun Emperor’s treasures. Moreover, earlier on, someone released the news and revealed the locations of where the septet were sealed. They made use of the Divine Sun Emperor’s name.
“And now, they’re using the Divine Sun Emperor’s name to call for a Divine Treasures Meeting. It’s hard to believe that there’s no relationship between the two.”
“So the problem right now is the plain?” The Immortality Saint said, stroking his chin. “Then there are these few things that we’ll need to do.
“The first thing is to investigate the situation in the Steel Lion Kingdom and find out whether the septet are controlling them from the background.
“The second thing is to look for allies. The threat of seven tier six Divine level experts is too great. We must find some more allies to deal with them together.
“The third this is to conceal the news that we’ve reached tier six of the Divine level. Only then will we be able to display its effect at the critical moment. Right now, they are in the open and we’re in the dark. This is our advantage.”
“When I was scouting the forbidden grounds, I had an exchange with them once. They’ve probably already discovered me, but they shouldn’t know my identity,” Fang Xingjian said. “As for the plain, I’ve already sent a clone to check it out.”
The Immortality Saint replied, “Then that’s good. They definitely don’t have information on us yet. If that’s the case, I’ll go look for the Phenomenal Saint and Oceansky Saint and see if we can join forces with them.”
Fang Xingjian said calmly, “I’ll contact the people from the Mage Association.”
Hearing Fang Xingjian’s words, the Immortality Saint was stunned for a moment. He then took a long look at Fang Xingjian and said, “Rumor has it that you colluded with the Mage Association. It seems that this is really the case.”
Although the Church of Universal Truth and the Mage Association have been on opposite stands for several years, one would not be too insistent on beliefs when they reached the Immortality Saint’s level.
However, he still shook his head and said, “It’s fine for you to contact the Mage Association, but don’t let people know of your relationship. If others find out, it will be very troublesome, and even I won’t be able to speak up for you.”
“I understand. Even if they come, they’ll only be taking action secretly,” Fang Xingjian stated with a nod. “But there’s still a problem.”
“How do we win against them?” Fang Xingjian asked. “There are seven tier six Divine level experts, and our previous setup is only capable of setting up some advantages to the best of our abilities. It’s still not secure enough to win against them.”
As the two of them spoke, they turned their gazes toward the White Emperor Zenith Sword and Ulpian.
Ulpian shut his eyes and said calmly, “If their standards are the same as the Immortality Saint’s, my current self should be able to deal with about three to five of them. I’ll still need to take a look at their abilities to be able to come up with an accurate assessment.”
Hearing Ulpian’s comparison, the Immortality Saint had no idea if he should laugh or cry. He looked at Ulpian and said, “They’ve been confined for 1,000 years and they’ve suffered a huge loss in their strength. They shouldn’t be as strong as I am at right now.”
“The crucial thing is that we still don’t know their current condition,” Fang Xingjian said, frowning “The best solution is to check out their situation while continuing to increase our battle prowess within this one month. The more we can increase it, the better.”
As he said this, he turned to look at Ulpian. “During this period of time, other than the clones we send out, the three of us should enter into secluded training together and look into Virtual Images.”
Ulpian nodded. “We can do that.”
His potential was currently the highest out of the trio, only because both Fang Xingjian and the Immortality Saint had reached tier six of the Divine level. Moreover, aside from possessing the White Emperor Zenith Sword, he did not cultivate any other powers. Therefore, the moment Ulpian truly started cultivating, he would definitely receive the greatest amount of increment out of the three of them.
Fang Xingjian let out a sigh inwardly. There was actually a better way, which was for the three of them to join forces and then find a way to kill the other two Saints. They would then be able to join the three parts of the White Emperor Zenith Sword into one and combine all 21 sections of the White Emperor Zenith Sword together.
It was a pity that the two Saints’ lives were the foundation behind the alliance between Fang Xingjian and the Immortality Saint.
The moment they killed the other two Saints, the jurisdiction of the White Emperor Zenith Sword would be an issue. At that time, Fang Xingjian and the Immortality Saint would no longer be restrained by an oath. Moreover, Ulpian had merged together with one part of the White Emperor Zenith Sword.
There were still reservations between Fang Xingjian and the Immortality Saint. It was like how Fang Xingjian would not give the remaining five levels of the mystical prints to the Immortality Saint. With the Immortality Saint’s current cultivation and Ulpian’s help, even Fang Xingjian might not be able to stop the Immortality Saint if he were to give away the remaining five levels of the mystical prints.
The same applied for the Mage Association. Although the Plenary Foundation Septet had remarkable capabilities, they had yet to reach a stage where the septet started posing a threat to everyone, allowing all the top-notch experts in the land to put aside their differences and join forces.
The Immortality Saint continued, “Alright, since that’s the case, we’ll enter seclusion together for training until the Divine Treasures Meeting start. With our combined efforts, we must definitely come up with a set of Virtual Image with unrivaled strength.”
...
While Fang Xingjian was communicating with the Immortality Saint, one of his clones arrived in the plains.
As a stream of sword light cut across the sky, Fang Xingjian appeared above the Steel Lion Kingdom’s palace. At the next moment, his body suddenly dissipated, turning into a breeze that swept across the land.
At tier six of the Divine level, the form of one’s conjured physique was no longer important. Regardless of whether it was the form of wind, rain, thunder, lightning, or the form of a human or beast, they would all be Fang Xingjian’s form.
Right now, Fang Xingjian had turned into a breeze, sweeping through the entire palace within a few minutes. However, he could not find any traces of tier six Divine level experts.
