31: Cooperation among the six dynasties

Facing Qin Tiandao's invitation, the lords of the five major Imperial Dynasties felt no fear at all and accepted directly.

They were not worried at all that Qin Tiandao would take action against them.

As long as anything happened to them today, the Fierce Blade Dynasty's strength would absolutely be unable to withstand the wrath of their five major Imperial Dynasties.

Inside the guest hall of the Fierce Blade Dynasty, six people sat around a circular table. Six tea masters came forward to pour spiritual tea for them and then withdrew.

Seeing that they did not drink the tea for a long time, Qin Tiandao smiled and spoke.

"What's this? This is high-quality Grade Ten spiritual tea. Even I had to go through quite a lot of trouble to get my hands on it."

"Could it be that you're worried I've poisoned it?"

After saying that, Qin Tiandao took the lead by picking up his teacup and draining it in one gulp.

Seeing Qin Tiandao drink first, the five lords of the Imperial Dynasties still did not drink the spiritual tea in front of them.

"Cut the nonsense. You said there was an important Opportunity, which is why I came. If there is no Opportunity, my Ghost Extermination Dynasty will not let this matter rest."

A middle-aged man with red hair frowned slightly and spoke in a slightly displeased tone.

He was the Emperor of the Ghost Extermination Dynasty, Li Zhilang.

Following Li Zhilang's words, the Emperors of the other four Imperial Dynasties also spoke up one after another.

"That's right. We all came because you said there was an Opportunity, not to accompany you in drinking spiritual tea."

"Less nonsense, hurry up and tell us about the Opportunity."

Seeing how impatient they were, Qin Tiandao put away the smile on his Face and said with a serious expression.

"Everyone, I presume you all know that my Fierce Blade Dynasty recently took in a Fifth-Rank Dynasty as a vassal?"

"Naturally, we know."

The lords of the five major Imperial Dynasties nodded. For forces of their level, their intelligence work was extremely formidable; any slight disturbance would reach their ears before long.

"Then you must also know about a Fifth-Rank Dynasty declaring war on my Fierce Blade Dynasty."

"To be honest, this matter was caused by that Fifth-Rank Dynasty my Fierce Blade Dynasty took in."

"And the Dynasty that declared war on my Fierce Blade Dynasty is named the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty."

"As far as I know, the strongest person in the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty is only at the Peak Saint level, but recently, they killed a Peak Saint King Old Ancestor of my Fierce Blade Dynasty."

"Therefore, I suspect that this Ancient Heavenly Dynasty has obtained some extraordinary Opportunity, allowing their strength to skyrocket instantly."

"However, it is clear that my Fierce Blade Dynasty cannot swallow this Opportunity alone, which is why I have sought you all out."

"We will take action against the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty together and split the resulting Opportunity equally. How about it?"

As Qin Tiandao revealed everything, the expressions of the five Imperial Dynasty lords present also became solemn.

Clearly, there was no other explanation for this matter besides the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty obtaining some incredible Opportunity.

"But why do you think our six major forces joining hands will be enough to take down the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty?"

At this moment, Yu Zhibo, the Emperor of the Huoying Dynasty—one of the five major Imperial Dynasties—frowned slightly and raised his doubt.

The other four Emperors also looked toward Qin Tiandao.

Qin Tiandao showed a confident expression and said, "I have my reasons for this analysis."

"The Ancient Heavenly Dynasty definitely does not have a Supreme level being. Otherwise, there would not have been a lack of Saint involvement in the battle with the Dayan Imperial Capital."

"As far as I know, during the entire struggle between the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty and the Dayan Imperial Capital, no Saints took the field."

"If the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty had a Supreme, they would have let the Saints take action long ago."

"After all, even that person needs to give Face to a Supreme, don't they?"

"In short, I have said my piece. Whether to cooperate is up to you."

After finishing, Qin Tiandao stopped speaking and closed his eyes to rest.

The five lords of the Imperial Dynasties lowered their heads in thought for a while.

After a good while, Lin Luo, the lord of the Wanxiang Dynasty, looked at Qin Tiandao and gave a cold laugh. "Why should we split it equally with your Fierce Blade Dynasty?"

"Your Fierce Blade Dynasty now only has one Peak Saint King Old Ancestor left. What right do you have to split it equally with us?"

The five major Imperial Dynasties that Qin Tiandao had invited were all top-tier Seventh-Rank Dynasties with two Peak Saint Kings presiding over them.

Faced with their question, Qin Tiandao sneered and spoke directly.

"Based on the fact that my Fierce Blade Dynasty's Old Ancestor is powerful. I wonder if that is enough?"

As Qin Tiandao's words fell, Qin Guchuan's figure suddenly appeared.

Witnessing this scene, the pupils of the surrounding five Imperial Dynasty Emperors suddenly constricted.

They were all at the Middle Stage Saint King level, yet they hadn't even been able to sense how Qin Guchuan had arrived.

Most importantly, even from the strongest Old Ancestors in their respective dynasties, they had never felt a presence as powerful as Qin Guchuan's.

Seeing the reactions of the five Emperors, Qin Tiandao knew in his heart that the matter was likely settled.

In a way, it could be considered a blessing in disguise.

After learning of his younger brother's death, Qin Guchuan's cultivation had actually surged under extreme rage. His Saint Dao had instantly climbed to over nine hundred and eighty layers, only a dozen or so layers away from breaking through to become a true Supreme.

After the five Emperors pondered in their hearts for a good while, they nodded in agreement.

"Agreed."

Next, after the six Emperors discussed their upcoming strategy for a bit longer, the five Emperors each departed.

Taking action against the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty was a matter of great importance. They needed to return and consult with the Saint Kings within their own dynasties.

Qin Tiandao watched them leave as Qin Guchuan stood beside him, expressionless.

"Are you certain we can take down the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty?"

"Rest assured, Old Ancestor. If my estimations are correct, the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty should have Saint King experts—likely several—but they definitely do not have a Supreme."

Qin Tiandao cupped his hands and said in a respectful tone, "If the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty truly had a Supreme, would annexing a tiny Dayan Dynasty have been so laborious?"

"If the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty really had a Supreme, even if they directly used a Saint to act against a Fifth-Rank Dynasty, the Tiannan Supreme would definitely turn a blind eye after finding out."

"Therefore, I am certain that the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty absolutely does not have a Supreme being."

Listening to Qin Tiandao's confident guarantee, Qin Guchuan gave a cold snort.

"Take me with you when you head to the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty. I want to personally kill the one who murdered my brother."

"Yes, Old Ancestor."

After seeing the Old Ancestor off, Qin Tiandao couldn't help but look toward the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty.

He was also very curious in his heart. Just what kind of Opportunity had the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty obtained to suddenly produce a Peak Saint King?

If they could obtain the Opportunity held by the Ancient Heavenly Dynasty, perhaps it could allow their Fierce Blade Dynasty to escape their current predicament and ascend to an Eighth-Rank Dynasty in one fell swoop... After Li Xuan and Chen Guchuan spread the word according to Gu Jixiao's decree, it didn't take long for hundreds of Cultivators to arrive and sign up.

They were all Cultivators with poor talent who had Cultivated for over two hundred years without being able to break through Core Formation, feeling that they could no longer progress.

So, upon hearing that the imperial court was recruiting Cultivators on a large scale and promising to help them break through to Void Refining Peak, they all rushed over, only seeking to join the imperial army in exchange for that chance to break through to Void Refining.
