Chapter 1233: Nine Continents, Seven Worlds
The information from Ox-dragon and Black Tortoise was startling. Determining the more valuable piece was difficult.
Nevertheless, saints have calculated the future before so the destruction of West Bull wasn’t unknown to the group. Other races also had speculated what Black Tortoise spoke of before.
Next was Qingyi who revealed: “I know little about these invaders but here is a recent development, billions of specters and ghosts have escaped from h.e.l.l. Something is going on there.”
The saints in h.e.l.l couldn’t suppress the chaos? Do these specters have saints too?
“It must be the invaders’ treacherous plan, releasing these specters to incite chaos.” A rising star known as Stone Girl said fiercely.
Rumor has it that she was an enlightened stone, hence her t.i.tle. Her beautiful appearance was overshadowed by her chilling aura. It prevented men from wanting to get close.
“The current invaders are descendants who hid for three kalpas now. Their leader is someone known as Heavendao, perhaps a survivor from Time Immemorial.” She said.
“From the Immemorial Era? Impossible, even kalpa-level medicine can’t live that long.” A listener didn’t buy it.
“That is why some believe Heavendao is not a living person but something else, that is all I know.” Stone Girl said.
“You all might recall a recent astral phenomenon where all the stars move and disappear. It was due to a fight between two great saints, one might have been Heavendao.” Busi Butai was the fourth to speak.
Everyone thought that was a natural change in the cosmos, not from the techniques of two incredible cultivators.
“During the last years of Time Immemorial, His Excellency, a pivotal war figure, left behind many clues. One among them is rather important.” Phoenix G.o.ddess said.
The others listened attentively since this pertained to Immemorial Divine Phoenix - a grand saint.
“As we all know, only one continent is left, ours to the left of the primordial ocean. What about the rest? We have been researching remnant clues about the broken continents. They are positioned in various directions, immensely far from ours, and shattered beyond belief. Nevertheless, our ancestors did send various races to these areas so that once the invaders return, perhaps they will only come across one continent and end their conquest there, essentially saving the rest.” She said.
“We found out that six of them were sent to desolate areas, perhaps nothing resembling life is there now. However, our ancestors found two that prospered tremendously since Time Immemorial. We have made contact and learned that they have been searching for their old home. Feng Feiyun is right about one thing, why can’t we combine various forces to fight the invaders?” She finished.
“That is indeed important information, perhaps the most startling one so far. We still have allies then.” Celestial Nightingale spoke: “I also have information regarding the invaders. Their blacksmithing ability far exceeds ours, allowing them to create galaxy treasures in the form of s.h.i.+ps. There were seven s.h.i.+ps in the previous war, way stronger than saint artifacts.”
“That’s no secret, they could pierce through saints, true ultimate artifacts. Now, I will tell everyone why it is so grim. The invaders aren’t from the same place but seven different worlds. Each is stronger than our nine continents, seven different civilizations.” Thirteenth snorted.
“Seven Worlds? Do you have proof of this?” Stone Girl asked.
Thirteenth knew this would shock the group and released a vessel made out of yellow mud.
“I am one of the spirit vessel’s holders. These civilizations are unique and have given birth to immortals. We are just a delicious pie in their eyes, how can we ever hope to win?” Thirteenth said while staring at Feiyun.
This information was more valuable than Phoenix G.o.ddess’ revelation of potential allies since no one knew about it before.
After they spoke, two camps formed. One side supported Feng Feiyun’s viewpoint - fighting to defend their homeland. This included Black Tortoise Descendant, Busi Butai, and G.o.ddess Phoenix.
The other side thought differently, that the invaders couldn’t be beaten. It was best to sacrifice everyone else and try to survive somehow. Resistance was futile and would only end in extinction.
Qingyi, on the other hand, remained neutral since her information was regarding the chaos in h.e.l.l.
Currently, Thirteenth’s side had the upper hand because the invaders’ strength seemed insurmountable. Moreover, saints have seen the future of destruction before.
What was the point of fighting against seven mighty civilizations?
Although Phoenix G.o.ddess spoke of the other continents, only two were found. They also didn’t know the true strength of these continents.
Now, Feiyun was the last one. They didn’t think he knew much because although humans were strong, they were still weaker than dragons and phoenixes. He might only know what they already knew.
Thirteenth recalled his mud vessel and asked Feiyun: “You’re the last one. Since you wish to fight, tell us how we will defeat them when we’re so heavily outmatched?”
“What can he come up with? Even the wise saints don’t have a solution.” Ox-dragon Sacred Descndant snorted.
“The calamity is inevitable. Who wouldn’t want to defend our home if fighting were an actual option?” Stone Girl said.
Feiyun posed with his hands behind his back, glancing at the red river first before turning back to answer: “Thirteenth Prince, I have something to ask you. Are you aware that the spirit vessel in your possession is only a strand of spirit from the real thing?”
