Urgent Report: Setting Out to Intercept

He paused, then added:

"These are already being done in Luozhen Province by the Luozhen Sect. The earth vein barrier is nearing completion, and there are also the Gods' Hall to gather gods, the Totem Hall to unite people's hearts, and identity jade tokens to control the population. Currently, within Luozhen Province, the Tribulation Qi has been weakened by nearly 50%, and there has never been an incident of gods going berserk."

"This system is replicable and can be widely adopted."

After he finished speaking, the hall fell silent.

Everyone stared at Li Yunjing, their faces filled with shock.

While they're still debating whether to defend or attack, the Luozhen Sect has already devised a complete and comprehensive countermeasure system?

And they've already been implemented and are showing results?

"Sect Leader Li, is this true?" Zhang Jianchen leaned forward abruptly, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

"The Alliance Leader can send someone to Luozhen Province to verify it. If it's useful, then it's not too late to promote it," Li Yunjing said calmly.

Zhang Jianchen slapped the armrest. "No need to investigate. I trust Sect Leader Sect Leader Li's character."

He stood up, his gaze sweeping across the entire room:

"Gentlemen, I propose we do as Sect Leader Li says!"

"The Immortal Alliance will take the lead, unify regulations, and promote the Luozhen Province system in all states."

What do you all think?

The group looked at each other in bewilderment.

After a moment, they all stood up.

We agree!

"We are willing to obey the orders of the Alliance Leader and Sect Leader Li!"

Nobody's a fool.

With readily available successful experiences in front of us, who would be willing to feel their way across the river by touching the stones?

Li Yunjing stood still, his expression calm.

The promotion system can only benefit the Luozhen Sect.

It can not only enhance the overall ability to resist calamities, but also further elevate the status of the Luozhen Sect.

But his heart remained heavy.

Even with a good system, it only provides a delay.

The real test lies at the Divine Court Ruins.

Haoyang won't wait for them to finish building the system.

The conference proceeded as planned.

With Luozhen Province's plan as a foundation, the subsequent discussions went much more smoothly.

The various factions divided into groups to discuss the details, including how to standardize early warning criteria, how to share the materials and manpower for ley line runes, and how to establish a cross-state communication mechanism.

As the proposer of the plan, Li Yunjing was surrounded by people from all walks of life seeking his advice.

He shared his experiences from Luozhen Province without reservation.

After all, with a catastrophe looming, hiding things wouldn't benefit anyone.

The conference continued into the afternoon of the second day.

Just as everyone was discussing the details of promoting the ley line runes.

"Report!"

A hurried voice came from outside the hall.

A deacon, covered in wounds, stumbled into the main hall and collapsed to his knees with a thud.

"Alliance Leader! Your Excellencies! Urgent report!"

Zhang Jianchen's face darkened. "What's the matter?"

"The Divine Court Ruins! Something's happened at the Divine Court Ruins!" the steward gasped. "Heavenly Lord Haoyang, along with five powerful individuals who have absorbed the Tribulation Power, have stormed into the Divine Court Ruins!"

"The outer protective formations have all been breached, and the Rogue Cultivator Alliance guarding the ruins has suffered heavy casualties; they simply cannot hold them off!"

Haoyang went straight to the Sun Hall, saying he wanted to retrieve some kind of Solar Adamantine!

The hall erupted in chaos.

"They're here!"

"They really went to the Divine Court Ruins!"

"Solar Adamantine, that's High Antiquity divine material! If Haoyang were to obtain it, what would become of him?"

Everyone's expression changed drastically.

Li Yunjing's eyes narrowed.

They've arrived, just as expected.

It was faster than he had expected.

"What's the panic!" Zhang Jianchen shouted sharply, silencing the commotion.

He looked at the deacon and said in a deep voice, "Tell me the details."

The deacon swallowed hard. "Yes, Haoyang and his group consisted of six people, each of whom had absorbed the Tribulation Power. They were fearless and extremely powerful. Even the combined strength of the elders of the Guardian Alliance couldn't withstand a single blow."

"Moreover, they absorbed the Tribulation Qi along the way, and their strength continued to grow. They should be almost at the Sun Hall by now."

"The Origin Tribulation Qi sealed within the Divine Court Ruins is countless. If he were to absorb the Tribulation Qi from the core area..."

The deacon didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood what he meant.

At that point, Haoyang might completely lose control and go berserk in the Divine Court Ruins.

The Origin Tribulation Qi is far more terrifying than ordinary Tribulation Power in the outside world. Once it erupts, half of the Central Province will be affected.

"What do you all think?" Zhang Jianchen's gaze swept across the entire room.

"What else can we do! We have to stop him!"

"That's right! We can't let him get the Solar Adamantine, and we definitely can't let him absorb the Origin Tribulation Qi!"

"Leader, give the order! Form a coalition army and march in!"

The crowd was outraged.

When it comes to their own lives, no one dares to be ambiguous.

Despite their excitement, when it came to actually leading the team there, no one volunteered.

No one really knows how strong Haoyang is right now.

If we go, can we win?

Everyone's gaze unconsciously turned to the Three Sovereigns on the main stage.

Dao Lord Xuanyuan is skilled in formations but not in offensive combat. Dao Lord Hanzun is strong in battle but is used to working alone. As for Li Yunjing, he is the youngest and least experienced. Although his plan is good, no one has ever seen how he performs in actual combat.

Zhang Jianchen also looked at the three of them and pondered, "The three of you, what do you think..."

"I'll go."

Li Yunjing slowly stood up.

The sound wasn't loud, but it instantly silenced the entire room.

Everyone looked at him, their eyes filled with surprise and relief.

As expected, it was Sect Leader Li took the initiative to step forward.

"Sect Leader Li, are you confident?" Zhang Jianchen asked in a deep voice.

Li Yunjing said calmly, "I can't say I'm sure of success, but Haoyang has no choice but to stop them. The Divine Court Ruins are too close to Central Divine Province; if something happens, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"I'll take some men on a trip. If we can stop them, great; if not, at least we can buy some time for reinforcements."

Dao Lord Xuanyuan immediately said, "No, Haoyang's strength has increased dramatically after absorbing the Tribulation Power. It's too dangerous for you, Sect Leader Li, to go alone."

Dao Lord Xuanyuan turned to Zhang Jianchen: "Our Immortal Alliance has also sent men! My formation team has 120 people, enough to set up the Black-Yellow Grand Array and lend a hand to Sect Leader Li."

The Dao Lord Hanzun said in a deep voice, "I'll go too. I'll bring fifty Cold Abyss warriors, all elite body cultivators, who can withstand a head-on confrontation."

Li Yunjing looked at the two of them and nodded slightly. "Thank you."

Dao Lord Hanzun waved his hand. "No need for formalities. Dealing with Haoyang is everyone's business."

Seeing that the three had reached an agreement, Zhang Jianchen immediately made the decision:

"Alright! Then let's assemble an expeditionary force, with Sect Leader Li as the commander-in-chief, along with Dao Lord Xuanyuan's formation team, Dao Lord Hanzun's combat troops, and one hundred elite warriors from the Immortal Alliance, to jointly head to the Divine Court Ruins."

"We must stop Haoyang. We cannot let him obtain the Solar Adamantine, nor can we let him absorb the Origin Tribulation Qi."

"Yes, sir!"

The three responded in unison.

Everyone inside the hall expressed their willingness to contribute supplies and medicines to support the expeditionary force.

The situation instantly shifted from a dispute to a shared hatred of the enemy.

The conference ended early.

The various factions returned to prepare supplies, while the expeditionary force agreed to meet in Luofeng Town on the edge of the Great Wilderness.

After the meeting, Li Yunjing immediately sent a message back to his sect.

He instructed Fang Hexuan and ten other deities skilled in battle formations to quickly travel to Luofeng Town and gather, carrying sufficient amounts of Soul-Suppressing Talismans, Soul-Stabilizing Pills, and other elixirs.

He also sent Primordial Lord Bi Shui along, as she was familiar with Haoyang's battle tactics and the Divine Court Ruins.

With the arrangements made, Li Yunjing prepared to set off.

"Sect Leader, are we really not going to wait for the main force of the sect to arrive?" Wangshu asked in a low voice. "Won't our numbers be too small?"

Li Yunjing shook his head. "No need. The space in the Divine Court Ruins is limited; too many people would only hinder our movements."

He paused, then added, "And when it really comes down to it, the Five Aggregates Cauldron is the key."
