The intervention of Shenxiao True Monarch had given them a glimmer of hope, but perhaps one day in the future, in return, they might have to give up something of their own.
This was inevitable, even knowing that the other party had ulterior motives, they had no other choice but to seize this opportunity.
What they could do now was to strengthen themselves, in order to better cope with the future.
“As long as we leverage this Qi Luck, if the Founding Emperor and Emperor Zhongzong could make a breakthrough again and possess the power of two Nine Tribulations Ghost Immortal experts, perhaps we could fight for a sliver of hope for the Da Ye Dynasty,” Emperor Xuanzong murmured in his heart.
Since the establishment of the Da Ye Dynasty, numerous emperors had reigned, but not all of them lived. Apart from practitioners of Taoist Skills, although Martial Arts practitioners rapidly ascended in power, even those in the Human Immortal Realm could only have a lifespan of two hundred years.
Up to today, among the initial emperors of the Da Ye Dynasty, only the Founding Emperor and Emperor Zhongzong possessed formidable strength. The remaining emperors, even if still alive, had not made breakthroughs at first and now, nearing the end of their lives, they had no possibility of advancing.
As long as the Founding Emperor of Da Ye breaks through to the Nine Tribulations Ghost Immortal or advances further in the Path of Human Immortal, possessing power comparable to the peak, and Emperor Zhongzong further advances in Martial Arts, then these two could become the pinnacle powerhouses of the Da Ye Dynasty.
Having two peak powerhouses, along with the army and soldiers of the Da Ye Dynasty, even if in a disadvantageous position, they had the qualification to contend on equal footing, having a chance to resist instead of being utterly powerless.
Following this, Emperor Xuanzong further accelerated the integration of the forces returning from these princes and heirs, to ensure they could be smoothly assimilated without affecting internal stability.
With the betrayal of many princes and heirs, these Religious Sects and noble families immediately recognized the reality, casting aside their last pretense and then wholeheartedly supported various Rebel Kings, boldly raising the banner of rebellion, swearing to overthrow the Da Ye Dynasty.
Subsequently, these Rebel Kings received greater support, their forces grew stronger, and these Religious Sects and noble families spared no effort in fueling the Rebel Kings to exhaust the power of the Da Ye Dynasty.
The initially peaceful Da Ye Dynasty was once again plunged into war, with various Rebel Kings advancing together, the whole dynasty facing enemies on all sides, smoke of war rising everywhere.
The usual change of dynasties aimed at overthrowing the previous ones, but among various Rebel Kings there were also conflicts since the support from these Religious Sects and noble families varied, and internal strife existed among them.
However, this time was different. This time the strength of the Da Ye Dynasty was too formidable, and if these Rebel Kings fought each other, fearing that delay would only make the Da Ye Dynasty stronger.
Even though these Religious Sects and noble families had different interests, the goal to overthrow the Da Ye Dynasty was unified or rather, everything was based on the fall of the Da Ye Dynasty, otherwise, there was no strength at all.
Continuous battles raged across the land of Central State, with Martial Artists and practitioners of Taoist Skills falling every day, from the initially fallen warriors, martial masters, congenital martial masters, to the later intense campaigns where even Grandmaster Realm Martial Artists, and even Martial Saint Experts fell, it was not uncommon.
This great calamity had erupted, far more intense than before, with Martial Saint Experts falling from the very beginning. As some regions of the Da Ye Dynasty fell and Rebel Kings failed, even low-level Human Immortal martial artists and Ghost Immortals of four or five tribulations began to be vanquished.
This made even the powerhouse backers behind the dynastic change shudder, as they finally realized that this change was surpassing the previous intensity.
Consider the previous change from the Da Xu Dynasty to setting up of the Da Ye Dynasty; during those decades of contention, the fallen powerhouses were only peak Martial Saints until the final decisive battle involved peak Human Immortal and Ghost Immortals of six and seven tribulations.
Now, it was merely a few regions contending, not even a true storming of Da Xing Royal City, and the Rebel Kings hadn’t yet sorted out the real victor, the Da Ye Dynasty hadn’t been defeated yet, and already there were Ghost Immortals and Human Immortal Powerhouses of five tribulations dying.
One could imagine that as the struggle escalated, even they would inevitably be drawn in.
“Probably when it comes time to storm Da Xing Royal City, even during the decisive battle, only Ghost Immortal powerhouses of eight or nine tribulations will be able to truly determine the outcome,” a guess rose in the hearts of some powerhouses.
“The current delay is just buying time for the Founding Emperor and Emperor Zhongzong to make their breakthrough. Even if we lost all the regions, if we are victorious in the end, we can easily take everything back, or if not, we’ll just have to fight for the world again,” confidence overflowed on Emperor Xuanzong’s face.
Even in the current situation, facing the siege of various rebel kings, with the Da Ye Dynasty retreating step by step, with cities falling every day, and regions continuously being lost, he remained unconcerned, utterly indifferent.
Because Emperor Xuanzong was clear about one thing, the current success or failure was only temporary; what would ultimately decide everything was the final battle between both sides’ peak powerhouses.
