Eastern Wasteland Assembly
Thank you for your trouble.
Chen Nianzhi nodded, then led the group into the courtyard.
At this moment, more than three hundred Nascent Soul True Lord have gathered in the courtyard. Each of them is an extraordinary person, with more than twenty of them being at the Nascent Soul Late Stage.
Many of them were acquaintances of Chen Nianzhi, such as Nine Rivers Daoist and Heavenly Hut Sect, as well as several patriarchs who were Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm.
Seeing their arrival, the Heavenly Hut Sect smiled and said, "You've come at the right time; we were just discussing the great battle."
"I apologize for keeping you all waiting."
Chen Nianzhi cupped her hands in greeting and stepped forward.
Among the many True Lord, the leaders were the three Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm: the Flying Feather Pavilion, the Sea-Calming Daoist Profound Void Daoist, and the Daoist of Profound Void, plus the True Lord Haoran, who possessed the Pure Yang Spirit Treasure.
Of the three, True Lord Haoran and Sea-Calming Daoist are the most respected, since the power of the Pure Yang Spirit Treasure is far beyond what Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm can match.
True Lord Haoran nodded to Chen Nianzhi, gesturing for them to stand behind him, before speaking, "Now that everyone is here, I will speak first."
"The battle against the Demon Abyss is no small matter. We, the people of the Three Vein Ancient Region, will need to unite to fight against the Outer Realm Demons."
As True Lord Haoran explained, Chen Nianzhi quickly understood the arrangements for this battle.
The Battle of the Demon Abyss is no small matter; generally, each Ancient Domain in the Eastern Wasteland is responsible for a section of the defensive line.
As one of the six Ancient Domain, the Three Vein Ancient Region also bears enormous responsibilities and faces considerable pressure.
Generally, such matters are presided over by the Immortal Alliance of the local Ancient Domain. However, the Ji Clan of the Primordial Spirit Clan of the Three Vein Ancient Region has only recently advanced and does not intend to stay in the Three Vein Ancient Region for long, so they did not take the lead in establishing Immortal Alliance.
Therefore, the only way to win this battle is to hold a meeting, meet here to discuss countermeasures, and then select a few more powerful and prestigious True Lord to preside over the battle.
In the Three Vein Ancient Region today, only True Lord Haoran and Sea-Calming Daoist are qualified to preside over them. Although Flying Feather Pavilion and Profound Void Daoist are Law Power, they are subordinate to the two because they do not have Pure Yang Spirit Treasure.
After listening, the Profound Void Daoist looked at the True Lord Haoran and said, "Then in this battle, we will follow the arrangements of Brother Ding Hai and Brother Hao Ran."
Sea-Calming Daoist nodded and smiled, "The war will still be arranged by the Eastern Wasteland Immortal Alliance. I've gathered here simply to unite our forces so that we can help each other in times of calamity."
"That's certainly true."
The True Lord all nodded. In the face of such a magnificent battlefield, even Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm might perish. Only by supporting each other could they have a greater chance of survival.
Chen Nianzhi listened quietly, but she also knew very well that when they really got to the battlefield, the only people they could rely on were their Lineage, Daoist Zixu, and their longtime friends like Yan Ziji.
In times of crisis, those who would risk serious injury or even their own lives to help you are probably only beloved dao companion and concubines like Jiang Linglong and Ya Ya.
As for others, when it really comes down to life and death, they might not be willing to take huge risks and pay a huge price to help someone they don't know well.
After agreeing to support each other, the meeting quickly came to an end.
Soon after, a Nascent Soul True Lord True Lord from the Long River Holy Land arrived in the courtyard, smiling and cupping his hands in greeting, saying, "The assembly is about to begin, please follow me."
The group arrived at a Daoist temple shrouded in mist and clouds. More than two thousand True Lord had already gathered there, meaning that about six or seven tenths of the True Lord in the Eastern Wilderness had come here.
Chen Nianzhi looked around and found three beings who looked like immortals and demons sitting cross-legged in the void, calmly watching them.
Among these three, one was Long River Dao Lord, whose temperament was ethereal and whose appearance resembled that of an old immortal.
The second person wore a starry gauze dress, with a cool and ethereal temperament, and her appearance and figure were almost flawless; it was none other than the Heavenly Pivot Fairy.
The last person was a young man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. He was tall and slender, and his aura was contained within his body. If you didn't look closely, you would think he was an ordinary person.
Chen Nianzhi had never met this person, but she roughly knew his background and that he was Lin Tianqi, the Clan Master of the Lin Clan clan, the number one immortal clan in the Eastern Wasteland.
After all, Lin Tianqi throughout the eight wastelands and was the number one sword cultivator in the Purple Yin Realm. His strength was enough to rank him among the top five among the Human Race in the Purple Yin Realm.
There were only three people before them, yet they shone like three suns and moons, overshadowing the light of more than two thousand True Lord.
"One day, I will become like you."
Chen Nianzhi murmured to herself, then exchanged a glance with Jiang Linglong, only to realize that they both had the same light in their eyes.
They smiled slightly at each other, and Chen Nianzhi didn't say anything, continuing to lower her eyes and wait for the conference to begin.
After an unknown amount of time, everyone attending the meeting had arrived.
The Heaven-Abandoning Dao Lord high above the Nine Heavens opened his eyes and suddenly spoke slowly, "The Zhang Clan of the Heavenly Desert Continent, the Wu Clan of the Riverfront Continent, the Three Star Continent..."
Lin Tianqi named seven names in succession, then said, "These seven immortal clans fled the war of Abyssal Demon Calamity, unwilling to take responsibility."
"After you return, you can annex it to increase your strength."
Upon hearing this, everyone's hearts trembled, while many others revealed expressions of wild joy.
Now that Lin Tianqi has spoken, it's impossible for those seven immortal clans to survive. Those immortal clans that are nearby will probably be able to get a share of the spoils.
Lin Tianqi seemed oblivious to the expressions on everyone's faces.
He merely glanced at the crowd, then reached out and scattered starlight, which flew to them.
After the starlight flew to the group, it transformed into contracts that appeared before them.
Chen Nianzhi picked it up and glanced at it, discovering that the contract was extremely strict. Once signed, one would have to swear Reincarnation Great Oath and obey the relevant orders of the Eastern Sea Immortal Alliance.
However, the contract clearly stipulates compensation for casualties and rewards for meritorious service. Moreover, even the several Primordial Spirit Dao Lord will swear Reincarnation Great Oath, so there is no need to worry about being cheated.
"The Abyssal Demon Calamity is no small matter. In order to concentrate the strength of the Eastern Wasteland to fight against the calamity, you all still need to sign a contract."
After everyone had finished reading the contract, Long River Dao Lord spoke.
Naturally, no one had any objections to this, and together they made Reincarnation Great Oath and signed the Long River Pact in this Long River Holy Land.
Seeing that they had made their vows, the three True Lord withdrew and left.
Now that the contract has been signed, all that's needed is to pay the supplies, submit the list of candidates for battle, and then go back to prepare for war. There's no need for the three Dao Lord to handle it personally anymore.
Chen Nianzhi found Huantian Ji and handed him the list of the Chen Clan's cultivators who would be fighting.
After reading it, Huantian Ji looked at him with some surprise and couldn't help but say, "Isn't it a bit too risky for six out of seven True Lord to participate in the battle?"
