A discussion among Hundred Schools.
The last time Hundred Schools thought discussed this matter was ten thousand years ago.
No, in fact, even at the end of the Great Jin ten thousand years ago, the Hundred Schools of Thought had never gathered together like this.
Due to the prestige of the Great Jin.
Among Hundred Schools, there are those who are hesitant to act for fear of inadvertently harming others.
Only a handful of people truly succeed.
Now, for the sake of this true dragon of the Western Continent, Hundred Schools have gathered on such a scale for the first time!
Zou Heng invited leaders from Hundred Schools to participate.
They discussed the extermination of the dragon within the Mystic Pivot Yin-Yang Palace.
The news spread rapidly throughout the ninety-nine prefectures.
When the agreed time arrived, dozens of illusory figures emerged from the void.
All the Hundred Schools of Thought gathered there.
Although it is said to be Hundred Schools, in reality, there are only a few dozen that are truly in charge.
The rest were mostly vassal Lineage.
For example, the Dongfang Household was actually nothing more than an appendage of the Yin-Yang School.
Those who came were all from the top forces in the Central Continent...
"The dragon of the Western Continent must not be allowed to remain."
The meeting had barely begun when someone had already drawn a conclusion.
The master of the Technique School speaks with a voice as firm as metal, and his words are concise and to the point.
This meeting is for this very purpose.
" The Central Continent Plains are a forbidden land, from which we cannot escape. How can we destroy it?"
Someone frowned and asked a question.
The hall fell silent.
Zou Heng spoke slowly.
"Humans may not be able to leave, but their strength can; Sea Race are not subject to this restriction."
" Sea Race?"
The cultivators' gazes narrowed slightly.
" Ao Qing has fallen, and the seas of the Western Continent are leaderless."
" The Sea Race are greedy; if you promise them great benefits, they will surely work for you."
Zou Heng lightly tapped the map with his fingertip, "Tens of millions of sea beasts, covering the sky and the earth, are enough to turn the world upside down."
"Not to mention the myriad Sea Race and Dahai cultivators, whose strength is terrifying."
"Not enough."
Sudden.
An aged voice rang out, originating from the Dao of Wuwei.
"This dragon has become a force to be reckoned with; the Dao Court has been established, and a million demon soldiers have bowed their heads."
Even if all the Sea Race were to emerge, their foundation would be difficult to shake.
He paused, his gaze deep and unfathomable:
"We need to get the other three states moving as well."
" Southern Continent, Northern Continent, Eastern Continent."
"Which of the three states' most outstanding generals wouldn't want to covet this lucrative prize of the Western Continent?"
" The Western Continent is in chaos, the Dragon Qi is without a master, fortuitous opportunity abound, and those who arrive first will gain; previously, no one could Dragon Qi."
"Now that Dragon Qi Dragon Fate have converged, who on this Eastern Desolation Star wouldn't want to fight for it?"
Upon hearing this, some people gasped in shock.
This plan is ruthless.
With three states involved, the Western Continent will inevitably become a battlefield for various tribes.
Even Dragon Fate with extraordinary abilities cannot withstand attacks from all sides.
After all, some of the geniuses from the four states are even difficult for them to control.
Furthermore, the forces in the neighboring states were originally supported by the Hundred Schools of the Central Continent.
Its power and strength are difficult to fathom.
It is impossible for the Western Continent alone to jointly govern the three states, especially with the Central Continent also playing a supporting role.
Add to that the Endless Sea, and it's truly difficult!
Considering this situation, Zou Heng remained expressionless.
There was a lone figure, speaking in a slightly disdainful tone.
" Yin-Yang School are most adept at balancing power and strategy, yet they never imagined they could create such a chaotic situation."
"If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Zou, we probably wouldn't have witnessed this unprecedented situation in the Eastern Wasteland."
The person who spoke exuded an aura of military might.
However, he was not the Military School strategist Bing Wuji.
The visitor was merely an elder from the Military School.
Despite his cultivation level being far inferior to Zou Heng's, he still dared to mock him.
It is evident that their military might is unparalleled among Hundred Schools of thought.
Faced with the advice of Military School, no one from Hundred Schools of thought spoke up, and no one offered any assistance.
Zou Heng didn't say much.
The karmic connection between this true dragon of the Western Continent and his family is too deep.
As long as we can slay the dragon, anything is negotiable.
The decision was made in just a few words.
The Hundred Schools of Thought did not speak much, yet every word they uttered was like a knife.
With each sentence uttered, a new faction enters the fray.
This means that countless lives are swept away by the torrent.
This was a life-or-death situation for the entire state.
Southern Continent, Northern Continent, Eastern Continent, and the Endless Sea.
All four directions were in turmoil, all pointing towards the land of the Western Continent.
The epic struggle that has lasted for millennia is only now beginning to unfold.
Meanwhile, in the distant Western Continent, a sudden tranquility descended.
Lu Li into seclusion, Dao Court divided the demons and pacified the Demon Manor.
To take in Pacify the West.
The entire Western Continent was unusually vibrant with life.
Even Dongfang Jiangxue, who had captured Elder Jian, has not reappeared, which is quite unusual...
Deep in the valley, the cave abode was dark and secluded.
Dongfang Jiangxue sat cross-legged.
She held a palm-sized ancient bronze mirror in her palm.
The mirror's surface was mottled, with a faint flow of Spiritual Power, and it was trembling slightly, as if trying to break free.
She glanced at it, her fingers slightly clenched.
The ancient mirror suddenly fell silent.
"The ancestral artifact of the Dongfang Household..."
She murmured something, her gaze indifferent.
A while ago, this so-called ancestral artifact inexplicably trembled.
Seemingly provoked, she grew tired of listening and extinguished the phone.
Without a doubt, someone from the Central Continent is behind this.
Yinyang Qingfan ignored this.
He casually tucked the antique mirror into his sleeve.
If a Law Artifact could kill Lu Li, she wouldn't have needed to go through so much trouble.
The incompetence and stupidity of her descendants made her regretful that she had left behind a legacy here.
This thought came to mind.
Lu Li's image involuntarily surfaced in Yinyang Qingfan's mind again.
The reason she hasn't made any moves recently is...
It's because of what Elder Jian said.
"Is Lu Li from a powerful clan, or... is he really like me?"
Yinyang Qingfan Fan hesitated.
She has been thinking about this issue constantly lately.
What a coincidence!
They came from the upper realm and were even from the same state.
There's also a huge dispute; the cause and effect are far too strong.
The intensity was so strong that it startled her awake; this could not possibly be a coincidence.
"Back then, after comprehending the Yin-Yang School, I received a four-character sacred edict."
"I originally thought that its location in the east was related to the Dongfang Household Clan, a clan affiliated with my Yin-Yang School lineage."
"Now it seems that might not be the case. Could this East... be related to the Eastern Desolation Star?"
Yinyang Qingfan sat cross-legged in meditation.
My mind is in a jumble.
Without understanding the meaning of the imperial edict, she neither had the energy nor dared to act recklessly.
"In the past, there was a kingdom in this realm named Jin, which ruled the Eastern Wasteland, but it suddenly met with disaster."
"If the imperial edict is related to the Eastern Wasteland, then logically, whoever governs the Eastern Wasteland will determine the Dao Path I take."
Could this be the meaning behind the divine message?
Yinyang Qingfan dared not confirm.
But if she asked herself honestly, she could see it.
Throughout the entire Eastern Desolation Star, if anyone has the potential to take charge of a single star...
Lu Li definitely counts as one.
She looked down on her descendants.
The Central Continent Plains might have some talented individuals and prodigies.
But with Lu Li's current foundation, he is by no means inferior to anyone else.
This made Yinyang Qingfan dare not make any further moves.
What if the imperial edict is truly like that?
Wasn't she courting death by killing Lu Li?
As her thoughts raced, she scanned the Elder Jian's Divine Soul with her Divine Sense.
These past two days, I inquired with Elder Jian and learned that Yinyang Qingfan had used some methods.
They learned some of the Elder Jian's past, as well as his connection with the Dao Court and Lu Li.
Mingwu Elder Jian stayed in the Dao Court because he wanted to rely on Lu Li's background and power.
This tactic is very common; there are people like this both here and in the upper realm.
The saying "When one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven" perfectly illustrates this.
It remains to be seen whether this Elder Jian will be right on his gamble.
Shaking his head, Yinyang Qingfan wanted to ask something else.
But to everyone's surprise, before she could even speak...
He suddenly froze on the spot.
A big name flashed through her mind for no apparent reason.
" Dongfang Jiangxue... Dongfang... wait!"
