On the mountaintop!
After Fire Separation Saint Emperor met with Makeduolang.
The two of them went straight to the point and asked the question.
Makeduolang wanted to know how long Fire Separation Saint Emperor to make his move.
Meanwhile, the Fire Separation Saint Emperor received the message to obtain the Origin Soul Spirit as soon as possible.
Both sides were asking questions, but Makeduolang was the first to answer.
"The method to find the Origin Soul Spirit is a secret of their race."
"They have promised to fulfill their commitment immediately after breaching the Nine Heavens."
These words only elicited a mocking laugh from the Fire Separation Saint Emperor.
"Wait until they conquer the Nine Heavens?"
"Heh! I'm afraid they might not even admit it by then."
The Fire Separation Saint Emperor is no fool.
The other party is now asking for my help.
That's why he was willing to reluctantly give up the method to break through the Nine Heavens restriction.
If one day, foreign invaders breach the Nine Heavens...
The cooperative relationship between the two parties naturally came to Destruction.
By then, the checks and balances of the dimensional portals would no longer exist.
Do you still want the foreigners to continue to benefit?
Makeduolang gave a helpless, bitter smile.
" Saint Emperor Majesty, the method for finding the Origin Soul Spirit is indeed a secret technique of their own race."
"Furthermore, it requires their abilities to perform this; even if I told you the method, it wouldn't help."
How could the Fire Separation Saint Emperor possibly believe such a statement?
"Snort!"
Since they have no sincerity whatsoever.
"Then this collaboration is off."
Fire Separation Saint Emperor snorted coldly, then turned and left.
His sudden turn frightened Makeduolang.
It took so much effort to finally establish a partnership.
If we let Fire Separation Saint Emperor go now...
How could he possibly gain anything from the hands of foreigners?
Makeduolang quickly stepped forward to stop the Fire Separation Saint Emperor.
" Saint Emperor Majesty, let's talk this over."
After stopping the Fire Separation Saint Emperor, Makeduolang quickly said with a forced smile.
Fire Separation Saint Emperor did not give him a friendly look.
"I've arranged everything."
"Furthermore, we persuaded the other twelve clans to entrust the task of guarding the dimensional portal to our Fire Clan."
"We have already shown our sincerity, but since you have shown no sincerity whatsoever..."
"I see no need to continue this cooperation."
Upon hearing that Fire Separation Saint Emperor had arranged everything, Makeduolang was astonished.
A surge of joy welled up within him.
Doesn't this mean everything is ready except for the final push?
But before he could even feel happy for a moment...
Fire Separation Saint Emperor once again decided to leave.
Actually, Makeduolang could see that too.
Fire Separation Saint Emperor Li kept saying he wanted to leave.
You're just scaring yourself.
Otherwise, he could have easily slipped away.
Why bother taking that next step?
Wasn't it all for the sake of giving myself a chance to stop him?
They now know that the other party also intends to continue cooperating.
Makeduolang quickly made his point clear.
" Saint Emperor Majesty, could you please wait here for a moment?"
"I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer today."
Only after hearing this did the Fire Separation Saint Emperor Li nod.
Makeduolang didn't dare to delay and immediately turned and left.
It took about two hours for Makeduolang to return to the mountaintop.
It's easy to tell from his smiling expression when he returned.
Makeduolang has certainly brought good news.
As he approached, he said directly:
" Saint Emperor Majesty, to show our sincerity, how about we each take a step back?"
Fire Separation Saint Emperor did not speak, but gestured with his eyes for Makeduolang to continue.
Upon seeing this, Makeduolang also revealed the results of his discussions with the foreigners.
The alien races were naturally worried that the Fire Separation Saint Emperor would take the benefits but not deliver on his promises.
However, both sides have their concerns.
The aliens made a compromise.
Now that the Fire Clan has taken control of the dimensional portal...
That serves as a demonstration of sincerity from both sides.
The Fire Clan first sent a member of another race to the Nine Heavens.
The other party helped the Fire Clan find the Origin Soul Spirit.
After obtaining the Origin Soul Spirit.
The Fire Clan completely destroyed the dimensional portal.
Release the aliens on the other side of the passage.
After listening to what Makeduolang had to say.
Fire Separation Saint Emperor fell into deep thought.
Only one person's statement was released.
This condition is not unacceptable.
However, the Fire Separation Saint Emperor thought of something.
It seems there are several extremely powerful individuals among the alien races.
Although it has not yet become an existence surpassing the Nine Heavens.
But it's like having one foot in that level.
Even if they agree to let one person from another race come over.
But it's absolutely impossible to let any of those super-strong individuals come.
"Okay, I agree."
"However, the people they send cannot exceed the strength of the Sovereign Realm."
With these restrictions in place.
At most, the other side could only send one Heavenly Firmament Venerable Realm.
This level of strength is enough for the Fire Separation Saint Emperor to kill him easily.
What trouble could he possibly cause?
Makeduolang did not hesitate to agree to the additional restrictions imposed on the Fire Separation Saint Emperor.
"Make a deal!"
After reaching a consensus, both sides then began to discuss the specific details.
According to what the Fire Separation Saint Emperor said.
If you want to fully open the dimensional portals...
That would take three to five years.
But it only involves opening a small gap in the dimensional portal to let one person out.
That one year is enough.
In addition, the Fire Separation Saint Emperor made another request.
During this period, the alien races need to continue sending cannon fodder to Heaven-Seizing Battlefield.
The purpose, of course, was to prevent the Fire Clan from being suspected.
After all, there had been no attacks from other races for a long time.
The Fire Clan, however, has always guarded the dimensional portal.
If something happens then, everyone in the Nine Heavens will probably be able to guess what the Fire Clan did.
By then, the alien races will probably have just invaded the Nine Heavens.
Meanwhile, the seven royal families and the Ascenders have launched a thunderous retaliation against the Fire Clan.
Makeduolang directly agreed to this on behalf of the alien race.
Aren't they just cannon fodder?
There are plenty of these over there.
The world of other races is the most cruel and ruthless place.
If you lack the strength, you have no right to object even if you become cannon fodder.
Both sides settled everything and then went their separate ways.
Early the next morning!
Under the leadership of the Fire Separation Saint Emperor.
The Fire Clan's powerful warriors then headed to the Heaven-Seizing Battlefield.
The grand formation, jointly operated by those at the Sovereign Realm and the Heavenly Firmament Realm, was also completed on the same day.
With the Azure Firmament Origin-Locking Formation in place.
The powerful beings from the Nine Heavens who were originally guarding the dimensional portal have also temporarily withdrawn.
In an instant, only the Fire Clan remained on the Heaven-Seizing Battlefield.
And just like that, half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, at the mountain peak where Lin Heng was cultivating.
One second the sky was clear and blue.
Suddenly, the weather changed, and thunder rumbled.
A fierce wind howled as it blew in.
The leaves on the trees in this mountain range rustled in the wind.
Soon, thunderclouds stretched for thousands of miles in the sky.
'Boom!'
The rolling thunder roared deafeningly within the thunderclouds.
At the same time, Lin Heng, who was on the mountain below, suddenly opened his eyes.
His deep eyes seemed to devour everything.
However, there was no energy fluctuation emanating from him at that moment.
Even if you don't look at it with your naked eye.
They wouldn't even notice that there was such a person on the mountain peak.
It was as if Lin Heng had become one with the mountain peak.
