209: The man behind the scenes

Somewhere in the starry sky.

Several Quasi Immortal Emperors of the Saint Spirit Clan seemed to be lost, flying aimlessly in the dim starry sky.

Suddenly, one of them turned his head to look at a huge, ancient star in the distance, "That star seems a bit extraordinary. Let's go take a look."

The others nodded, none of them refuting.

The group changed direction and quickly flew towards the ancient star that emitted a faint divine light.

Their speed was incredibly fast; in just a few breaths, they were close to the ancient star.

"Who goes there?"

"This place is now the territory of our Myriad Ancient Divine Dynasty! All of you, get out of here! No one is allowed to approach!" Two Black Armor Men flew out from the star, shouting sternly at the Saint Spirit Clan's Quasi Immortal Emperors.

A Saint Spirit Clan Quasi Immortal Emperor sneered upon hearing this, "Heh, your Myriad Ancient Divine Dynasty sure has a grand display of power! This place is the Tianxu Ancient Land, not your Myriad Ancient Divine Dynasty. If you want to show off, go back home and do it!"

"Exactly! This isn't the Myriad Ancient Divine Dynasty. We can go wherever we want. What right do you have to stop us? Do you really think the Tianxu Ancient Land is your home?!" another Saint Spirit Clan Quasi Immortal Emperor mocked unceremoniously.

"Scram!"

"Dare to approach again, and you'll be killed without mercy. Try it if you dare!" The two Black Armor Men didn't argue with them, directly summoning their war weapons and staring at them with sharp eyes.

"Damn it! Try it then!"

"Go, kill these two arrogant fools!" The Saint Spirit Clan Quasi Immortal Emperors were instantly enraged and unhesitatingly attacked the two Black Armor Men.

Boom—!

"Kill!" The two Black Armor Men also showed no weakness, completely unafraid of their numbers, and directly met them in battle.

Meanwhile, on that ancient star.

Gu Sen, along with many powerhouses from the Myriad Ancient Divine Dynasty, was exploring a massive underground ancient city when he suddenly sensed the battle outside, causing him to frown.

"What's happening outside? Could it be that some strange beasts have attacked?"

A Myriad Ancient Divine Dynasty Quasi Immortal Emperor happened to fly in from outside and immediately replied, "Lord Gu Sen, it's people from the Saint Spirit Clan. They wanted to break into this ancient star and then got into a fight with our people!"

"Hmph! Saint Spirit Clan, it's those damned Saint Spirit Clan again!" Before Gu Sen could respond, another Myriad Ancient Divine Dynasty powerhouse became enraged.

"What's wrong?" Gu Sen immediately looked at him.

"Lord, I just received a message from the third squad. They were ambushed by several Saint Spirit Clan powerhouses. Not only were their treasures stolen, but two people also died, and those Saint Spirit Clan fellows escaped with the treasures!"

Boom!

A powerful and violent Aura instantly erupted from Gu Sen's body.

"Those damned Saint Spirit Clan, how dare they?!"

"Let's go, follow me out and meet these Saint Spirit Clan insects!"

Bang—!

At this moment, the battle in the starry sky had reached a white-hot stage. The two Black Armor Men were completely suppressed and had already sustained many injuries.

They were already regretting it, not expecting these Saint Spirit Clan fellows to be so strong.

Space rippled.

Gu Sen appeared with dozens of Quasi Immortal Emperors.

"Oh no, their reinforcements are here!"

"Time to retreat, there are too many of them!"

"Go!" The Saint Spirit Clan Quasi Immortal Emperors, seeing the unfavorable situation, immediately fled into the distance.

"Where do you think you're escaping to?!" Gu Sen roared, and a massive palm print condensed from divine lightning struck towards them.

Boom!!

To his surprise, this palm strike was easily blocked, and those Saint Spirit Clan fellows were completely unharmed.

Looking at their fleeing figures, Gu Sen couldn't help but frown. When did these Saint Spirit Clan people become so strong?

Did he really underestimate these guys before?

He looked back at the two heavily injured Black Armor Men, and a strong Evil Qi appeared in his eyes, "Damned Saint Spirit Clan!"

"Pass on my order: if you encounter any more Saint Spirit Clan people, kill them all!"

"Yes!"

...

Wu Ning observed everything, feeling that the heat wasn't quite enough, so he secretly added a few more flames, causing more deaths on both sides.

The conflict continued to escalate.

Wu Ning smiled in satisfaction, "Being a mastermind feels pretty good. Let them fight like dogs."

"Next, it's the turn of the Nine Li Divine Dynasty."

Wu Ning cast his gaze in another direction.

There was an extremely vast continent called Holy Soul Continent, one of the largest continents among all the starry sky continents.

In the center of the Holy Soul Continent, there was an ancient stone tablet towering into the sky, called the Holy Soul Heaven Tablet, rumored to be transformed from the lost treasure of a powerful being.

The name of the Holy Soul Continent also came from this.

Aside from the three peerless Opportunities that ordinary people could never obtain, the Holy Soul Heaven Tablet could be said to be the greatest Opportunity in the Tianxu Ancient Land.

On this Holy Soul Heaven Tablet, there were many Great Dao runes. If one could wholeheartedly comprehend them and gain something, achieving the Immortal Emperor Dao was completely without difficulty.

Many Quasi Immortal Emperors in the past successfully achieved the Immortal Emperor Dao by comprehending this Heaven Tablet.

Moreover, what was comprehended from this Heaven Tablet was very useful even after achieving the Immortal Emperor Dao.

It was even rumored that a powerhouse once relied on what he comprehended from the Holy Soul Heaven Tablet to not only achieve the Immortal Emperor Dao but also successfully advance to the Dao Lord Realm within a mere few hundred million years!

Although the rumor could not be verified, it made countless people firmly believe it.

Just like No Life, who suppressed his cultivation for tens of thousands of years, not allowing himself to Breakthrough to Immortal Emperor, solely for the purpose of comprehending this Holy Soul Heaven Tablet.

And other Prodigies from hegemonic forces mostly came for this Holy Soul Heaven Tablet.

Tens of thousands of people sat cross-legged before the Holy Soul Heaven Tablet. They did not waste time searching for other Opportunities but wholeheartedly comprehended the Dao runes on the Heaven Tablet.

The surrounding hundreds of thousands of miles were quiet; no one dared to make a sound.

Chi Meng, looking vexed, arrived with dozens of Quasi Immortal Emperors from the Nine Li Divine Dynasty.

This unexpected incident caused them to lose more than ten people for nothing, and dozens more had disappeared, still not gathered even now.

"The plan is temporarily suspended. We will rest here for a while and wait for the others to catch up," Chi Meng said in a deep voice.

The others nodded, no one speaking.

They found an empty space near the Heaven Tablet and were about to sit down when the Holy Soul Heaven Tablet suddenly trembled violently.

Buzz—!

Everyone was instantly startled, looking up to see the Holy Soul Heaven Tablet suddenly emitting a brilliant light, countless anomalies appearing and instantly spreading across the entire sky.

"What's going on? What happened to the Holy Soul Heaven Tablet?"

"Looking at this phenomenon, could it be that someone has comprehended some great Opportunity?" Everyone watched in surprise and uncertainty, with various expressions in their eyes.

No Life stood in the position closest to the Holy Soul Heaven Tablet, and seeing the anomalies before him, he couldn't help but frown.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, all the anomalies stopped, and a golden light flew out from the Holy Soul Heaven Tablet, shooting directly towards Chi Meng.
