Plans of All Sides
"Fellow Daoist Shen, you have advanced to the Nascent Soul Late Stage!"
Chu Buyu was overjoyed.
Shen Long nodded. "By the way, Fairy Chu, are you alone? Are there no other fellow cultivators with you?"
"I got separated from them and hid away to Secluded Cultivation for a while. When I came out to gather information, I was discovered by the Nascent Soul Cultivator of the Heaven Origin Race, so I had no choice but to wipe them out."
Chu Buyu spoke calmly, as if annihilating the Nascent Soul Cultivator of the Heaven Origin Race was a trivial matter.
She seemed to remember something and said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, I have something very important to discuss with you. Let's find a safe place to talk."
Shen Long nodded in agreement.
Chu Buyu searched the enemy's corpse for valuables and planned to burn the bodies, but Shen Long stopped him.
"Fairy Chu, give me the corpse to feed my Spirit Beast!"
Shen Long spoke.
Chu Buyu agreed and let Shen Long take the body away. They then left the place.
Half a day later, they appeared in an underground cave, the stone walls glowing with a soft yellow light.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, I know that the Green Flood Dragon Tribe has the Five-Light Morning Origin Fruit Tree, and the fruit is almost ripe. Are you interested?"
Chu Buyu asked.
"Five-Light Morning Origin Fruit Tree!"
Shen Long was somewhat tempted. The Five-Light Morning Origin Fruit and the Seven-Treasure Glazed Fruit were similar in that they could help Nascent Soul Cultivator break through to the Spirit Transmutation Realm.
"I killed a Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Green Flood Dragon Tribe and searched his soul. I learned that the Green Flood Dragon Tribe had a Five-Light Morning Origin Fruit Tree. The Green Flood Dragon Tribe had many Nascent Soul Cultivator conscripted to the front lines, leaving their defenses weak."
Chu Buyu said.
The Green Flood Dragon Tribe is one of the twenty-one tribes of the Heaven Origin Race, with a profound foundation. Due to the war, the Green Flood Dragon Tribe sent many Nascent Soul Cultivator to the front line to defend the area.
"Does the Green Flood Dragon Tribe have Spirit Transformation cultivator?"
Shen Long asked.
"According to that Heaven Origin Race cultivator, there are currently no Spirit Transformation cultivators. However, the Green Flood Dragon Tribe's Clan Protection Array is quite troublesome. If you and I join forces, we might be able to break the Formation."
Chu Buyu said.
"We could attack the Green Flood Dragon Tribe, but to be on the safe side, we should first create some chaos by attacking other tribes to draw their attention before attacking the Green Flood Dragon Tribe. That would be much more reliable."
Shen Long explained his plan.
With the Water Qilin Bead in hand, unless the Green Flood Dragon Tribe's Clan Protection Array is a fifth-order Formation, it cannot stop Shen Long.
"That's definitely the safest approach, let's do it that way."
Chu Buyu had no objection.
Shen Long took out a map, pointed to it, and explained his plan, including the timing of the attacks on various strongholds, the retreat routes, and the action plan.
"Then it's settled. We'll attack the Black Tiger Tribe first. This tribe is quite far from the Green Flood Dragon Tribe, so we should be able to mobilize a lot of Heaven Origin Race cultivators."
Shen Long pointed to a spot on the map and said.
Chu Buyu nodded and said, "Then let's act! We need to finish this quickly. If we delay any longer, the Green Flood Dragon Tribe might increase their vigilance."
They left and headed to the Black Tiger Tribe.
······
The Purple Eye Realm is an adjacent realm to the Heaven Origin Realm, and the Purple Charm Race is the ruler of the Purple Eye Realm.
The Purple Charm Mountain Range are located in the eastern part of the Purple Eye Realm, stretching for millions of miles and rich in Spiritual Qi.
Deep within the mountains, one can see numerous members of the Purple Charm Race Clan. The Purple Charm Race Clan is similar in size to Human Race, but they have purple eyes, longer ears, and purple hair.
A magnificent palace with the three golden characters "Purple Charm Palace" inscribed on its plaque.
A plump Purple-Skirted Woman sat in the main seat, while a portly old man in a black robe and a tall man in a gold shirt sat on either side, talking about something.
"If the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold? What a joke! When their Heaven Origin Race was at its peak, they waged wars everywhere and plundered a lot of cultivation resources. What benefits did our Purple Charm Race gain? Why didn't we say 'if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold' back then?"
The Purple-Skirted Woman sneered.
Zi Xuan, Spirit Transmutation Mid-Stage.
If it weren't for the fact that the Green Plum Realm and the Gan Yang Realm were dealing with the Heaven Origin Race of the Heaven Origin Realm, she would have already planned to ascend to the Lingxu Realm.
"They can't share the good times, but they expect us to share Heaven Origin Race bad times. Do they really think we're easy to bully?"
The old man in black robes frowned and said.
Tu Si, in the early stages of the Spirit Transformation.
"Exactly! They even dare to threaten us, to join forces with the Human Race against our Purple Eye Realm? Do they really think they're still the same Heaven Origin Race they used to be?"
The man in the golden robe sneered, then changed his tone, saying, "However, old ghost Yin Jie always keeps his word. If we really don't support them, he might actually cooperate with the Human Race."
"Supporting them is no problem, but they have to act like they're begging for our help and even make threats. It's all because they've been spoiled in the past."
Zi Xuan's tone was icy.
"How about this? We'll list the cultivation resources they need. If they provide those resources, we can support them. The Human Race might not be able to destroy us."
The man in the gold shirt offered his suggestion.
"Alright, Tuna, this matter is your responsibility. Send people to guard the Spatial Node leading to the Heaven Origin Realm. This is our people's escape route and a natural barrier against Human Race invasion."
Zi Xuan gave the instructions.
"No problem, leave it to me."
Tuna agreed.
After chatting for half an hour, the three of them went about their own business.
······
Gan Yang Realm, North Sea.
A sea of white mist shrouded the area, and the sea breeze blew, making the white mist seem frozen in place, completely still.
A Escape Light flew in from afar, and stopped in a flash outside the white mist.
The Escape Light vanished, revealing Lu Haoming's figure.
"So, has the investigation been completed?"
A majestic male voice echoed from the white sea of mist.
"Senior Huangfu, Mo Wuya and the other eight Spirit Transformation cultivators have not shown their faces for many years. According to reliable sources, Mo Wuya and the Green Lotus Sword Venerable are both in the Heaven Origin Realm. As for the whereabouts of the other Spirit Transformation cultivators, that is unknown."
Lu Haoming reported.
He was ordered to investigate the movements of the Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivators in the Gan Yang Realm. The Gan Yang Realm and the Green Plum Realm were joining forces to deal with the Heaven Origin Realm, so the movements of the Spirit Transformation cultivators were a secret and naturally could not be spread around.
Despite his best efforts, Lu Haoming only learned that Mo Wuya and the Green Lotus Sword Venerable were in the Heaven Origin Realm.
"Good. Continue to investigate the whereabouts of other Spirit Transformation cultivators. Report back immediately once you've found out, and I won't treat you unfairly."
The man gave the order.
"Yes, Senior Huangfu."
Lu Haoming agreed.
A Cyan Storage Bracelet flew out from the white sea of mist and stopped in front of Lu Haoming.
"Thank you very much, Senior Huangfu."
Lu Haoming said excitedly, accepted the Storage Bracelet, and left.
Beneath the white sea of fog, one can see an island spanning hundreds of miles, and a hidden underground cave.
Huangfu Lou and Tai Shi Jin sitting on a stone bench, talking about something.
Tai Shi Jin has recovered his cultivation and is currently at the early stage of the Spirit Transformation.
"Now is not the best time to act. It would be safer for us to wait until the Human Race and the Heaven Origin Race race are both severely weakened before making our move."
Huangfu Lou said in a deep voice.
"I have no objection, I'll listen to you."
Tai Shi Jin agreed.
