Chapter 2911 - 1075
On a small island.
The sand was white and the lagoon was clear, with birds circling above.
A solitary figure stood alone, gazing indifferently at the distance.
Within his sight, a huge white bird came across the sea from afar, stretching its wings wide and nearly obscuring the sky.
Its feathered wings moved as it crossed several dozen miles to reach the edge of the island.
Landing with a crawl, it transformed into a slender, graceful figure, half-kneeling on the ground.
"Tian Xuan, greeting the master!"
Luo Chen’s gaze was distant, still looking toward the horizon, softly asking, "Where are they?"
Tian Xuan bowed her head, her tone filled with excitement: "They’re all here, according to your instructions, a thousand miles away from the East Yuan Continent, ready to launch an attack at any time. Now, just waiting for your command, master!"
Luo Chen uttered a sound of acknowledgment, his expression largely unchanged.
Tian Xuan raised her head slightly in confusion, "Master, when will we strike against the Tianyuan Daoist Sect?"
Luo Chen tugged at the corner of his mouth, "We still need to wait for the right moment, a moment when we can put all our chips on the table!"
Yes, Luo Chen was waiting for the right moment.
Waiting for when Li Canghai said the array would activate, and the Tianyuan Daoist Sect’s power would be fully committed, coinciding with their weakest point.
At that time, he would put all his chips on the table and go all in!
In a past life, there was a saying, known as "all-in is a kind of wisdom."
This wisdom mainly manifests in strategic choices, information asymmetry, decisive decision-making, and resource integration.
Luo Chen introspected that he had already integrated all the resources he could access to the fullest extent; never before and possibly never again could he assemble such a formidable lineup.
In terms of intelligence gathering, he currently had a certain advantage over Tianyuan Daoist Sect.
The Tianyuan Daoist Sect once attempted to annex the Mountain Sea Realm but failed, resulting in numerous enemies. Whether the North Sea or South Border, both held grudges against Tianyuan Daoist Sect. Compared to them, Luo Chen’s personal grudges with Tianyuan Daoist Sect were unlikely to be noticed by them. Hence, in the scenario he deliberately controlled the leak of information, Tianyuan Daoist Sect would not notice Luo Chen’s "small actions."
After all, he was merely a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.
In this situation, Luo Chen exhausted all his efforts for a focused breakthrough on one of the three continents of the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, the East Yuan Continent, undoubtedly the most correct strategic choice and most decisive decision.
But no matter how correct or decisive, the foundation the enemy possesses is something he cannot contend with.
Thus, unless he plays this card, once played, he must win everything!
Otherwise, he would face death and the annihilation of his path, with four hundred years of arduous cultivation dissipating like Mirror Flower, Water Moon, a void dream.
Luo Chen looked down at Tian Xuan, this demon beast he had forcibly subdued long ago, after three hundred years, had finally cultivated to the Fourth Order Transformation.
The Qi Power flowing through her, so familiar, originated from the Feathered Wings Cultivation Technique "Huan Yu Secret Scroll" he once specially created for her.
Long ago, Luo Chen had removed the Slave Mark from her.
She was now free, yet still called him master, indicating the strength of her allegiance to him.
"Among the four demon beasts under my command, your strength is the weakest, but in terms of intelligence, you are the highest. I have a task for you."
Tian Xuan, revitalized, replied earnestly, "Please instruct me, master."
Luo Chen nodded slightly, "After the battle begins, you don’t need to participate in the main battlefield. Instead, head to the route between the East Yuan Continent and Li Bei Continent. Once any strong individuals from Li Bei Continent start to aid the East Yuan Continent, you immediately inform everyone to prepare to retreat. This task is not difficult but crucial; it requires intelligence, perceptiveness, and sufficient speed, all your strengths. Can you do it?"
Tian Xuan responded with overwhelming excitement, "Tian Xuan will definitely complete the task to perfection!"
Luo Chen smiled slightly, a hint of relief flickering in his heart.
Although Li Canghai mentioned he had reached an agreement with the North Sea Demon Race Great Power, and a considerable number of Demon Clan would attack Li Bei Continent at the appropriate time to hold off their top experts.
But Luo Chen did not have much confidence.
It’s not that he didn’t trust Li Canghai, though he indeed had little faith; his genuine distrust was in the North Sea Demon Race experts.
If they merely go through the motions and fail to hold back the forces from Li Bei, unexpected variables would arise on the East Yuan Continent’s battlefield.
Whether he can succeed or not, the formidable Daoist Sect Cultivators from Eastern Wasteland would inevitably be drawn into a bitter battle.
Since he brought them here, he still hoped to bring as many back as possible.
"Master, I’m leaving now."
Having received her task, Tian Xuan swiftly departed.
Luo Chen gazed at her fleeing silhouette, his expression as calm as a placid lake, yet his emotions were churning within.
It’s close!
A hundred years of planning, that day was finally approaching.
He also ought to head to his destined battlefield.
But before that, he had to visit the East Yuan Continent to deliver a special gift to the Tianyuan Daoist Sect.
...
With the conclusion of the cycle competition, Tianyuan Daoist Sect should have transitioned from a lively situation to one of relaxation.
But that wasn’t the case.
Although indeed quieter compared to before, the atmosphere was exceptionally tense and grim.
Throughout the East Yuan Continent, Daoist Sect Cultivators patrolled everywhere. Cultivators from various families were ordered not to move freely but stay within family territories. Commercial activities, which had been gradually becoming bustling again with Zhongzhou’s recuperation, were all halted.
All these signs indicated that a significant event was imminent for Tianyuan Daoist Sect.
And this significant event was already not a secret among the Nascent Soul True Masters.
