Pressure Soars
"The seven Martial Dao Heavenly Steles are like one entity. Sealing one is not enough. Only by trapping them all and severing their connection with heaven and earth can we succeed." Nine Phoenix Crown Prince shook his head helplessly.
"Is there any way to break this connection?" Marquis Linfeng.
The Sky Fox Saintess said coldly, "No, just now the Bai Ze Clan sent word that, through their deductions, they discovered that as long as the Qiongqi Realm Martial Dao lineage still exists, this connection cannot be broken."
More precisely, as long as the Qiongqi Realm Martial Dao lineage is not completely wiped out, the Seven Martial Dao Heavenly Steles will stand eternally between heaven and earth.
Conversely, without our attack, the Heavenly Stele will automatically collapse and shatter!
"The Martial Dao lineage..." The Fire Spirit Tribe commander's face was grim. "Does this mean there's absolutely no hope of breaking through these seven Heavenly Steles?"
The other commanders remained silent upon hearing this.
That is indeed the case.
The Martial Dao lineage of the Qiongqi Realm is mainly divided into the Tianwu Sect and the Martial Alliance.
The former has allied with the Nine Phoenix Realm and has an extremely powerful Cause-and-Effect Contract with them. If any action is taken against them, all races will definitely pay a very heavy price.
If that were all, it wouldn't be so bad. For the sake of the vast Qiongqi Realm, the Nine Phoenix Realm Alliance gritted its teeth and reluctantly destroyed it.
The problem is that since the rise of the Martial Alliance, the center of the Martial Dao Fortune in the Qiongqi Realm has shifted to the Martial Alliance.
In this way, even if the Tianwu Sect is destroyed, it won't have much effect.
In other words, to destroy the Martial Alliance, one needs to break the Martial Dao Heavenly Stele.
To break the Martial Dao Heavenly Stele, the Martial Alliance must be destroyed.
This is a vicious cycle.
That's why the seven commanders-in-chief are having such a headache.
After a long while, Nine Phoenix Crown Prince sighed, "Forget it, since there's no good way to deal with the Martial Dao Heavenly Stele in a short time, let's sweep through the other regions of the Qiongqi Realm first."
All living beings were wiped out, and all Spirit Veins were destroyed, turning the entire realm into a dead land, thus weakening the resistance of the Qiongqi Realm Will of Heaven and Earth to the greatest extent possible!
"Well, that's the only way for now..."
After reaching an agreement, the Nine Phoenix Realm left some troops behind to keep an eye on the Seven Martial Dao Heavenly Steles.
The remaining army split into four routes and swept across the four seas Ba Huang of the Qiongqi Realm.
The Nine Great Immortal Sects, the Twenty-Four Demon Forbidden Lands, and races large and small were all destroyed under the iron hooves of the Nine Phoenix Realm army.
However, because the Nine Phoenix Realm army was delayed for a period of time in front of the Martial Dao Heavenly Stele, all the major forces had to react.
Forces such as the Xuanxin Sect, after seeing that the Nine Phoenix Realm's attack on the Heavenly Stele had failed, decisively withdrew most of their forces and divided them into three groups.
A force passed through the Realm Gate and retreated into the Lu Wu Realm.
A force retreated to the nearest of the Seven Martial Dao Heavenly Steles Fortresses.
The third force is the weakest; it disperses, breaking into smaller groups, and wanders throughout the vast Qiongqi Realm, waiting for its opportunity to strike.
In this way, a new defensive line was formed in the Qiongqi Realm, with the Seven Martial Dao Heavenly Steles at its core.
Despite suffering heavy losses, it still retains an extremely strong resistance. If the Nine Phoenix Realm underestimates this force, they will inevitably pay a heavy price.
As time passed, a month later, the Central Continent of the Qiongqi Realm finally fell completely.
Countless lives were wiped out, tens of millions of Spirit Veins were destroyed, and hundreds of millions of miles of land were scorched. The once prosperous region is now replaced by a blackened landscape.
After occupying the Central Continent, the Nine Phoenix Realm army continued its advance towards the Ocean.
However, the vast Ocean is home to countless forbidden zones, Sea Beasts, and Fierce Beast, which severely hinders the Nine Phoenix Realm's invasion.
The Nine Phoenix Realm is a world where Fire Attribute power is at its peak, and it has never been particularly adept at attacking Ocean forces.
Especially the three major races Nine-Phoenix Clan, the Fire Spirit Tribe, and the Fire-Bathing Tribe.
Once in the water, their strength is greatly reduced.
Of course, progress in conquering the Ocean was far behind that in conquering the Central Continent.
However, if no unforeseen events occur, the resistance forces in the Qiongqi Realm's Ocean will be completely wiped out within a few decades at most.
At that time, in the vast and endless darkness of the Qiongqi Realm, only seven lamps remained.
Lu Wu Realm, Purple Moon Mountain.
Yang Tianyou, who had been closely following the progress of the war in the Qiongqi Realm, finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that the Qiongqi Realm still retained tremendous power.
As long as the Qiongqi Realm retains a considerable amount of resistance, the Nine Phoenix Realm will need to devote a great deal of energy to keeping an eye on them. In this way, although the pressure on the Lu Wu Realm is great, it can be sustained.
"However, we cannot let our guard down. After the Nine Phoenix Realm takes over the Qiongqi Realm, it will occupy a large number of Realm Gates. Using these as springboards, it can launch a pincer attack on the Lu Wu Realm. The pressure the Alliance will face afterward will likely increase dramatically." A hint of worry appeared in Yang Tianyou's eyes.
