Chapter 253: Gather!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Countdown: half a month.
This was the amount of time given by Lu Changsheng.
All the factions began to recall the living forces outside.
They began to gather in the central region to prepare for the general attack from the outer regions!
The domain war was about to begin!
At this moment, there was no one in the Imperial Palace of the Floating City except for Lu Changsheng and Ye Qiubai.
Hong Ying asked, “Master, did you really set up an array formation on the Heavenly Road?”
Lu Changsheng rolled his eyes and said, “They would have already sent someone here otherwise. Why would they wait until now?”
Hearing this, Hong Ying nodded.
Indeed, it was impossible for the other party not to react to what had happened in the Sunset Monarchy.
Waiting for death was not the style of those people from the outer realms.
“Half a month is not bad. It can give us a breather.”
Hong Ying smiled and said, “Coincidentally, we can also invite the Imperial Preceptor out of his seclusion.”
The Imperial Preceptor was a super expert second only to Hong Ying in the Cloud Phoenix Empire.
It could be said that the Imperial Preceptor’s contribution towards the Cloud Phoenix Empire having such a status at that time could not be underestimated!
If Hong Ying was the heart and soul of the Cloud Phoenix Empire, the Imperial Preceptor was the skeleton!
The group from the Nine Heavens Tribe also said, “Your Majesty, shall we follow you?” Hong Ying shook her head and refused.
“You still need to coordinate the army and be prepared. I can go alone.”
After that, Hong Ying bowed to Lu Changsheng and walked towards the Southern Region desert.
The Cloud Phoenix Mystic Realm was located in the depths of the desert.
On the other side at the Central Region, Sky Formation Gate.
This sect was famous for its formations.
If the Alchemy Sect was a holy land for alchemists, the Sky Formation Gate was the place where all the array masters on this mainland would go on pilgrimages!
At this moment, in an empty space in the Sky Formation Sect, nine towering pillars soared into the sky!
The nine pillars were in a mysterious position.
At the same time, countless patterns gathered on each pillar!
In the center of the nine pillars, three white-haired old men performed hand seals where auras of arrays swirled around them to maintain the array formation!
The three of them looked extremely calm.
However, in an instant, their expressions changed as they suddenly opened their eyes!
Their eyes were filled with shock and fear at the same time!
“This… Why has the other party already appeared on the Heavenly Road?”
“It should have been three days! Only one day has passed!”
“No matter what, we have to inform the Empire as soon as possible!”
With that, the three of them shouted at the same time.
The patterns on the nine pillars emitted a dazzling light and shot into the sky at the same time, rushing into the clouds!
The Central Region and all the factions in the four territories had sensed it!
Dean Yan looked up at the nine pillars of light that shot into the sky at the Hidden Dao Academy’s Main Academy.
His expression could not help but change drastically!
“Shouldn’t it be three days?”
The Hidden Sword Sect, on the peak top, Lin Rufeng looked up at the sky with his hands behind his back.
There were nine pillars of light there.
“Looks like… the war is going to start early…”
Central Region, Mu Family.
Mu Wan’er asked, “Father, what is this?”
Mu Heze did not answer his daughter. Instead, he immediately found the elders and said decisively, “Immediately check the combat strength of the clan and follow me to Cloud Phoneix City!”
When the elders heard this, they did not hesitate. Their faces were filled with seriousness.
They immediately went down to do their part since the war was about to begin!
For a moment, all the factions moved when they heard the news. They began to gather all the living forces in Cloud Phoneix City!
In Cloud Phoneix City, the leader of the Nine Heavens Tribe, Yun Zhan, also gathered his troops as quickly as possible.
Then, he looked at Lu Changsheng and asked respectfully, “Senior, please give the order!”
The reason why the Nine Heavens Tribe asked for Lu Changsheng’s opinion was because…
It wasn’t just because of Lu Changsheng’s unfathomable strength, it was also because Hong Ying had already instructed him before she left.
You can ask Master about amything if I’m not around.
Master’s words are equivalent to my words.
Stunned, Lu Changsheng asked, “Why do you want me to give the order?”
Yun Zhan cupped his fists and knelt on one knee. “His Majesty said that if she’s not around, we’ll listen to senior’s orders!”
Lu Changsheng:”…”
Good God.
All of his disciples make him worry to no end!
However, Lu Changsheng had no other choice.
It was a war after all.
It was a big taboo not to have a leader!
Now that Hong Ying wasn’t here, Lu Changsheng had to help her carry this burden for the time being.
“Since the army has already gathered, let’s meet up with the people from the other factions and count our strength.”
“The alchemists will be used as logistics and ingredients for refining pills. They must not be cut off!”
“The array masters will provide support.”
“At the same time, all the leaders of the factions will lead their own forces.”
“After doing all of this, we’ll head to the Heavenly Road!”
Even though Lu Changsheng didn’t know if his array formation could last the City Lord for 15 days, at the very least, a few days should be fine.
I can’t be that weak no matter what, right?
After receiving Lu Changsheng’s order…
Yun Zhan immediately received the order and led the others to do it.
At the same time, Hong Ying naturally saw the nine pillars of light rise.
“I have to speed up…”
With that, she broke through space and entered the Cloud Phoneix Mystic Realm.
She arrived at the bamboo house in the depths of the mystic realm again.
Unexpectedly, Imperial Preceptor was already wearing a brocade robe and holding a scepter.
“Imperial Preceptor, everything is ready. Follow me.”
Imperial Preceptor nodded and said, “I’ve been preparing here for a long time for this day. Your Majesty, let’s go now.”
Imperial Preceptor’s body had already fully recovered!
His realm was even at the half-step Martial Monarch Realm!
It could be said that the Imperial Preceptor was from ancient times, his strength was second only to the Cloud Phoneix empress.
The two of them left the mystic realm.
The mystic realm also started to slowly collapse following the Imperial Preceptor’s departure…
Along the way, Hong Ying explained the whole story to the Imperial Preceptor.
“In other words, the array formation set up by His Majesty’s Master can last for another 15 days?”
Hong Ying nodded and said, “It’s said to be 15 days, but I think it can last longer.”
Imperial Preceptor smiled and nodded. “15 days is enough.”
“With the overall strength of this continent, if we encounter those people from the outer realm, we will definitely lose.”
“In these 15 days, I’ll increase their overall strength by another 10%!”
The two of them returned to Cloud Phoneix City at an extremely fast speed. Right now, all the factions in Cloud Phoneix City had already gathered!
Seeing Hong Ying return, everyone knelt on one knee and said respectfully,
“Your Majesty, please give me your instructions!”
Hong Ying nodded.
Following that, she gestured for Imperial Preceptor to begin.
In the Western Region.
Four old men flew out from the Buddhist Sect.
At the same time, there was a middle-aged man in front of them.
Their target was the Cloud Phoneix City!
