Senior Bai Gu just had to bring some shocking little news with him.
The Hundred Races had now been bound together by Brahma;
Brahma was building its own Mechanical Army and was about to unleash a great calamity;
Their Invincible Fleet was one calamity, while several decades from now—within a century—the long-prophesied great tribulation would descend...
The Immortal Realm truly suffered one disaster after another.
Wang Jixuan sighed inwardly, yet showed no sense of pressure. With a faint smile on his lips, he discussed their future response with Bai Gu.
Bai Gu's suggestion was to respond to all changes by remaining unchanged: actively defend and buy time for now. Once the super fleet opened the gates of the Immortal Realm, they could naturally shift from defense to offense.
At that point, the Hundred Races would have nothing to worry about and would surrender at the mere rumor of their arrival.
Peony, however, had a different view.
"Brahma had the Heavenly Dao seal off the Immortal Realm precisely to gain more time. It still has too many hidden cards, and many of them are things we don't know about."
Peony quickly said:
"I think we should use offense in place of defense. The best defense is offense—make sure the other side has no spare hands to launch an offensive against us."
Bai Gu smiled and shook his head. "Then do you know how many puppets of the Heavenly Dao Worm are among the human race?"
"Uh..."
Peony pondered for a moment, lowering her head to make a rough calculation.
Wang Jixuan smiled. "I think Martial Aunt Jian Wu and the others should be the ones worrying about this. We are merely supplementary forces on the human side of the Immortal Realm. Humanity is fighting the Heavenly Dao—that is the central theme.
