Chapter 1578 - 1568: Learning the Plan

Chapter 1578: Chapter 1568: Learning the Plan

Inside the Taoist temple.

The atmosphere is somewhat heavy.

The Lord of Destiny picked up his teacup, intending to take a sip, but just as it reached his lips, he put it down again.

"Take it slow!"

Zhang Sanfeng softly said, "The situation hasn’t deteriorated to an irreparable point yet!"

The Lord of Destiny’s eyes lit up, he put down the teacup and hurriedly asked, "Do you have a way?"

"I do!"

Zhang Sanfeng nodded and said, "But I need your cooperation. I can divinate Luo Hou’s plans, but I need to borrow the River of Destiny!"

His divination skills were quite advanced, but Luo Hou’s strength was also no slouch, coupled with the matter concerning the safety of the endless universe, the situation is momentous. Relying on personal power alone can’t unveil the secrets of heaven.

"Alright!"

The Lord of Destiny didn’t think twice and immediately summoned the River of Destiny.

Ripples in the void.

A black and white River of Destiny slowly flowed within the Taoist temple, and at its center, there was a noticeable crack continuously emitting the force of tribulation.

"The crack has widened!"

The Lord of Destiny stared at the crack and said solemnly.

"That indicates the Dark Sanctuary has begun taking action; we need to speed up!"

Zhang Sanfeng’s expression grew slightly solemn.

He flicked the horsetail whisk in his hand, sending three thousand beams of light shooting into the River of Destiny, like tossing a stone into a calm lake, stirring a thousand waves.

Each wave showed countless images flashing by.

Images flickered.

Countless forces of cause and effect spread out from the River of Destiny.

Zhang Sanfeng and the Lord of Destiny gazed at the River of Destiny, under their watch, images of the Dao Saint Temple emerged from within the River of Destiny, enveloped by innumerable adversities.

The Dao Saint Temple!

The origin of this calamity!

Zhang Sanfeng and the Lord of Destiny exchanged glances, seeing deep shock in each other’s eyes.

With their intelligence, upon divining the Dao Saint Temple, they could infer the ultimate intent of the Dark Sanctuary.

What is the Dao Saint Temple?

A place to suppress the Origin Power of the endless universe!

Once breached, the endless universe will suffer a massive blow, and the destruction of the Origin Power will directly affect the seal. At that point, experts of the Tribulation Clan will be able to enter the endless universe.

In other words, Luo Hou’s actions have already betrayed the endless universe.

Boom!

At this moment.

Layer upon layer of terrifying energy surged from the east of the endless universe, shaking the dimensions of time and space, causing countless beings to feel their bodies become heavy.

This pressure was extremely intense, as if it suppressed deep within their souls, like a bone stuck in their throats, unbearably uncomfortable.

"The direction of the Guard of Tribulation!"

Zhang Sanfeng looked up and said softly.

"The Tribulation Clan invades the Guard of Tribulation, and the Dark Sanctuary attempts to invade the Dao Saint Temple; isn’t this too much of a coincidence?"

The Lord of Destiny furrowed his brow, feeling a sense of ominous foreboding.

"Don’t think about it!"

Zhang Sanfeng also knew there was a problem within, but now wasn’t the time for riddles. He stood up and said, "You quickly return to the Dao Saint Temple, organize defenses!"

"I, the humble Taoist, will go find His Majesty and send reinforcements to the Dao Saint Temple!"

"Hope we’ve still got time!"

After saying that, Zhang Sanfeng vanished into thin air.

"Damn!"

The Lord of Destiny’s face was like water, he drank the tea in his cup in one gulp, and tore through the void to depart.

...

Imperial Capital.

Inside the imperial study room.

Zhang Sanfeng hurriedly walked in, cupped his hands in salute, and said, "Your Majesty, the Dark Sanctuary is preparing to attack the Dao Saint Temple, we must quickly send reinforcements!"

Qin Wudao was engrossed in reading memorials.

Upon hearing Zhang Sanfeng’s words, his expression changed immediately, he put down the imperial brush, and solemnly ordered.

"Granted!"

Imperial decree issued.

Wind and clouds surged!

An overwhelming aura erupted from the Endless Palace, Jixia Academy, Buddhist temples, and Taoist temples, bursting forth like a tidal wave in all directions.

At this moment, the sky over the Nine Provinces and the grand thousand worlds changed color.

In the west, Buddha’s light shone, two Buddha phantoms appeared, sitting on lotuses, displaying compassion, propagating Buddhism, relieving worldly suffering.

Buddha saves mankind!

Many Buddhist followers witnessing this knelt on the ground in respect, immensely devoted.

On the eastern slopes, azure Taoist light flickered, three Taoists rode the clouds and mist, wielding divine skills and flying toward the distance.

The elderly Taoist descends the mountain, carrying a sword to save all beings!

In the north, at Jixia Academy, Mencius, Lu Ban, Mohist, Zou Yan, and other scholars were delivering teachings, a blazing white scholastic aura soared to the sky, covering the heavens, educating the masses.

In the sky filled with wisps of literature, countless students sat cross-legged, listening to the Dao.

Suddenly.

The scholars who were speaking simultaneously stopped, broke through the void to leave.

An unparalleled killing intent erupted from their bodies.

A scholar brandishing a sword.

Protecting the nation.

"It’s a pity that the Twelve Gold Men and the divinities of the Nine Provinces Ding cannot be dispatched!"

"Let’s hope the Dao Saint Temple applies some strength!"

Qin Wudao stood at the entrance of the imperial study room, hands behind his back, gazing at the streaks of light piercing the sky, thinking quietly.

Then he thought again about the instigator of this great catastrophe.

Luo Hou!

Regarding this old friend, he previously didn’t pay much attention.

Occasionally remembering, he just thought Luo Hou had good luck.

But now, he realized Luo Hou was not simple; he managed, with his strength alone, to reach where he is today, becoming the master of the Dark Sanctuary.

As known, he achieved today’s accomplishments by having outstanding Huaxia people assist him, leaning on the system.

"Your Majesty, there’s something wrong with Luo Hou!"

At this moment, the space around Qin Wudao twisted, and a figure walked out; it was the divinity of Yu Zhou Ding, speaking gravely.

Gravely!

Qin Wudao turned to look, thinking he saw an illusion.

This was the first time he saw anything other than calmness on the face of the divinity of Yu Zhou Ding.

"Did you discover something?"

Qin Wudao asked.

The divinity of Yu Zhou Ding shook his head.

Qin Wudao asked again, "Then why do you feel there’s something wrong with Luo Hou?"

The divinity of Yu Zhou Ding replied, "An instinct!"

Hearing this answer, Qin Wudao twitched the corner of his mouth but also kept the divinity’s words in mind, deciding to find an opportunity to deal with Luo Hou.

...

Guard of Tribulation!

The Great Tribulation Officer stood behind the seal, and behind her stood tens of thousands of figures, all strong warriors of the Tribulation Clan.

"March into battle!"

Command issued.

A four-headed tribulation beast roared, using its legs to propel itself, transforming into a streak of light charging into the endless universe.

"Roar!"

A world-shaking beast cry rang out.

As the sound waves passed, the dimensions of time and space were torn like paper and disintegrated into countless pieces, continuously extending to the sky above the Guard of Tribulation, its terrifying aftermath transmitted through the Guard of Tribulation, into the endless universe.

Upon the city wall, Sword Master, Lord of the Universe, Killing World, and Mysterious Fate stood, watching the four-headed tribulation beast with exceptional gravity and feeling immense pressure.

Behind them.

Silhouettes swarming.

All were Martial Artists of the Three Knowledge and Causality Realms; as for those below the Three Knowledge Realm, they were not yet qualified to join this battle.

Human wave tactics?

For the top-tier experts, it already has no effect!

A Martial Artist of the Three Knowledge Realm can easily defeat hundreds or thousands of Martial Artists of the Molding Dao Realm.

"Four-headed tribulation beast!"

"Let this first battle be mine!"

After saying this, the Sword Master took a step, transforming into a streak of sword light and rushing into the battlefield.

Without a single word wasted.

He cut down with one slash.

The fractured void was further split apart, a brilliant Sword Qi appeared, descending from above, annihilating all paths, destroying space-time, and disrupting dimensions, aiming to slash at the forehead of the four-headed tribulation beast.
