All Under Heaven as the Board, Each Man a Piece

Asking for recommendation votes and monthly passes...

Back on the soil of his homeland, the Heaven Dou Empire.

An indescribable emotion surged within Long Zhanye's heart.

But he had no time to lose himself in sentiment. He immediately issued swift, decisive orders.

Turning to face the four Sacred Pillar Guardians, he spoke in a firm tone. "The four of you are to return to Sea God Village in the Star Luo Empire immediately."

"Gather the more than 4,300 Sea Soul Masters under Sea God Village's command. Assemble the entire force, prepare for battle, and await my orders at all times. There must be no mistakes."

The four Sacred Pillar Guardians answered in unison. Without asking a single question, they turned and shot toward Sea God Village.

Long Zhanye himself then activated the Sixth Soul Skill of his first Martial Soul.

A Scapegoat identical to his original body separated from within him.

The instant that Scapegoat landed, its own sixth Soul Ring of its first Martial Soul lit up as well, splitting off another identical Scapegoat from its body.

Three Long Zhanyes stood before everyone at once—their faces identical, their Soul Power fluctuations identical, even the sharp, imposing air between their brows utterly indistinguishable.

Even Ye Guyi, who was closest to him, was slightly stunned for a moment before she could tell which one was the true original body.

Long Zhanye's original body remained with the Evil Monarch Soul Master Regiment and Imperial Dragon Soul Engineer Regiment stationed within the Body Sect.

His first Scapegoat, meanwhile, leaped into the air and transformed into a streak of light, speeding toward the Sun Moon Empire's front lines.

On this journey, he intended to learn exactly what earth-shaking changes had occurred among the three great empires during the past year and a half.
