77: Void Coordinates, Prelude to the Expedition

The cleansing operation concluded in Perfection, and the Demon Spirit Continent ushered in unprecedented clarity and stability.

The Cloud Court's prestige was soaring, and the Laws and order it promulgated became the sole standard of the Continent.

Nie Li and the others, having undergone this battle, not only tempered themselves through practical combat but also established absolute authority in the hearts of all major forces.

Deep within the Cloud Court, inside a newly constructed "Star Gazing Hall" inscribed with countless profound spatial Formation patterns.

Yun Feng stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze seemingly piercing the hall's roof, looking towards the endless, brilliant, yet crisis-ridden starry sky.

Suspended before him was a constantly shifting star map, composed of pure energy.

This was a preliminary overview map of the surrounding Void Realm, constructed by combining information from the "Heavenly Mandate Core" database, the memories acquired from devouring the "Nirvana Dominator," and residual fluctuations of the Nether Domain's will.

On the star map, the light spot representing the Demon Spirit Continent was weak and isolated, like a candle in the wind.

Surrounding it were several patches or vortices of light, marked with different auras and threat Ranks.

One of these light patches, emanating a dense aura of death and stillness, where tiny skeletal phantoms constantly appeared and vanished, was the direction pointed to by the wisp of Nether Domain will that had previously escaped—one of the coordinates of the "Nether Domain."

Another area was a constantly twisting, colorful nebula that carried the implication of chaotic devouring.

This was the known, relatively active Abyssal Erosion Zone, suspected to be occupied by other Abyssal Dominators.

Further away, there were other light spots, some bright, some dim, some balanced and peaceful, and some sharp and aggressive, representing other unknown planes and worlds that might harbor life or civilization.

"Host, based on current information analysis, the 'Nether Domain' plane's Rank is similar to the Demon Spirit Continent, but its Law is biased towards death and stillness, bearing deep hostility towards the Spirit Realm.

It may contain multiple Legendary Rank beings (called 'Nether Marshals' in the Nether Domain) as well as one Dominator Rank being (called 'Nether Emperor' in the Nether Domain)," the Heavenly Mandate Core's mechanical voice calmly analyzed.

"The Abyssal Erosion Zone's energy reaction is extremely unstable.

It is recommended to temporarily avoid it."

"Three plane fluctuations with relatively stable energy reactions and ordered Laws have been detected.

Initial contact can be attempted."

Yun Feng listened quietly, his finger unconsciously tracing lines on the star map.

Passive defense, waiting for the enemy to arrive, was definitely not his style.

Since he knew the source of the threat, taking the initiative to attack and letting the flames of war burn on the enemy's soil was the best defense.

Moreover, the Demon Spirit Continent needed development and resources; self-imposed isolation was ultimately not a long-term solution.

"Nether Domain..." Yun Feng's gaze locked onto the dead and silent light patch.

This force was like a maggot in the bone, first attempting to summon the Nether Lord, and then secretly spying; it must be eliminated first!

Furthermore, the Death Law and resources controlled by the Nether Domain might benefit Nie Li's Shadow Devil Spirit and even the Death-attribute Cultivators of the Continent.

"Issue the command."

Yun Feng's voice sounded in the ears of Nie Li, Yun Hao, Yun Qiao, and the Cloud Court's core members.

A moment later, everyone gathered in the Star Gazing Hall.

Yun Feng pointed to the Nether Domain's coordinates on the star map, his tone calm but carrying undeniable resolve: "The internal affairs of the Continent are settled.

It is time for our gaze to turn towards distant places.

The first target: the Nether Domain."

Upon hearing this, although everyone had anticipated it, hearing the actual clarion call for the expedition still made their hearts surge, especially Yun Hao, whose Battle Intent nearly ignited in his eyes.

"Nie Li, you will take overall charge and form the 'Void Realm Expeditionary Force.'

Use the Cloud Court elites as the backbone, and recruit powerful individuals from all parts of the Continent who volunteer to participate.

The minimum cultivation requirement must reach Black Gold Rank."

"Yun Hao, Yun Qiao, you two shall serve as the vanguards for the Expeditionary Force."

"Yes!" The three responded in unison, their expressions solemn yet excited.

"This expedition has three objectives: First, completely eliminate the threat of the Nether Domain and eradicate future troubles; Second, temper the Cultivators of our Cloud Court and the Continent, allowing them to adapt to Void Realm warfare; Third, acquire the unique resources of the Nether Domain to nourish the Continent."

Yun Feng waved his sleeve, and several streaks of light flew towards Nie Li: "These contain preliminary analyses of the Nether Domain's Law characteristics and information on potential enemies, as well as some core talismans for the 'Void Crossing divine ark' that I refined, which can be used for travel through the Void Realm.

You must prepare thoroughly.

In six months, we will swear the oath and embark on the expedition!"

"We respectfully obey the Court Master's command!" Everyone roared their assent.

A soaring Battle Intent and pioneering passion permeated the Star Gazing Hall.

The news quickly spread among the Cloud Court's high Ranks and the leaders of some invited powerful forces.

The entire high-level power structure of the Cloud Court, and indeed the entire Continent, began to operate at high speed like a massive war machine, preparing for this unprecedented cross-plane expedition!

Resources were mobilized, experts were screened, new combined assault Formations were practiced, and protective Magical Artifacts targeting the Nether Domain's Death Law were refined in batches...

The Demon Spirit Continent, a world that had just caught its breath after the Abyssal invasion, did not retreat into self-preservation under Yun Feng's guidance.

Instead, it erupted with astonishing ambition, actively pointing its sharp sword toward the enemies outside the Void Realm!

The six-month period was like a string gradually being pulled taut.

Everyone knew that when this string reached its tightest point, it would be the day the sharp sword was drawn and the foreign lands were conquered!
