Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 2122 - 1812: The Hidden Moon Sect May Not Be a Match for the Daqin Immortal Dynasty
Upon hearing the words of the Hidden Moon Sect Leader, the hearts of the leaders in the hall grew restless. They knew that Lu Chen had absorbed a large number of refugees in the Southern Domain, and a significant portion of the Qi Fortune in the Southern Domain had converged on the Daqin Immortal Dynasty.
If they could take over the Qi Fortune of the Daqin Immortal Dynasty in the Southern Domain, their respective factions would certainly see a significant increase in Qi Fortune.
However, they were still somewhat anxious. After all, the Blood Ancestor had been their enemy before, and they couldn’t fully trust that the Blood Ancestor would wholeheartedly help the Barbaric forces to restrain the Xiyue Immortal Emperor.
At this moment, the Hidden Moon Sect Leader reminded them, "Lu Chen has the Immortal Emperor behind him, and now the Barbaric forces also have an Immortal Emperor. I hope everyone won’t choose the wrong path."
Upon hearing this reminder from the Hidden Moon Sect Leader, the leaders present instantly realized they had no choice, even if they were unwilling.
If they attacked the Daqin Immortal Dynasty and took action against Lu Chen, they would offend the Xiyue Immortal Emperor. But if they didn’t attack the Daqin Immortal Dynasty, they would not only offend the Hidden Moon Sect Leader but also the Blood Ancestor.
The Blood Ancestor was also an Immortal Emperor, and moreover, an Evil Immortal Emperor. Coupled with the fact that the Hidden Moon Sect Leader possessed power close to an Immortal Emperor, compared to offending these two, they would still rather offend the Xiyue Immortal Emperor.
Moreover, being under the eaves, they had to bow their heads. If they refused, they would probably be the first to be annihilated.
At this time, the leaders in the hall unanimously said, "We respectfully obey the Sect Leader’s Immortal Order!"
The Hidden Moon Sect Leader continued, "In that case, I ask everyone to go back and prepare, and before we officially mobilize, keep this matter secret."
As the Hidden Moon Sect Leader’s words fell, the leaders in the hall gradually departed, leaving only the Immortal Venerate and the Blood Ancestor from the Hidden Moon Sect.
At this moment, the Hidden Moon Sect Leader set his gaze on the Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable and asked, "Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable, after I went into seclusion, did you continue to carry out the plan I initially set?"
When he went into seclusion, he had entrusted the task of provoking a conflict between the Daqin Immortal Dynasty and the Nine Heavens Institute to the Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable. However, after one hundred years in seclusion, it seemed that the Nine Heavens Institute had not taken any action against the Daqin Immortal Dynasty, which puzzled the Hidden Moon Sect Leader.
The Demon Emperor’s strength should be greater than that of the Xiyue Immortal Emperor, so why was the Demon Emperor still fearing the Xiyue Immortal Emperor?
The Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable replied, "Sect Leader, since you went into seclusion, I have constantly incited conflicts between the Daqin Immortal Dynasty and the Nine Heavens Institute. However, the Daqin Immortal Dynasty seems to be aware and generally expels any wrongdoers among its people, while the Nine Heavens Institute has continually exercised restraint towards the Daqin Immortal Dynasty."
Hearing their conversation, the Blood Ancestor in the hall couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh, which immediately caught the Hidden Moon Sect Leader’s attention. As the Hidden Moon Sect Leader turned his gaze towards the Blood Ancestor intending to ask why he laughed, the Blood Ancestor simply stated, "Don’t count on the Demon Emperor; the Demon Emperor also fears Lu Chen and has no intention of making a move against the Daqin Immortal Dynasty."
"I went to see the Demon Emperor, and she was even considering letting our Blood Eagle Hall probe Lu Chen’s strength."
The Hidden Moon Sect Leader frowned deeply and asked, "Why does the Demon Emperor fear Lu Chen? In theory, her strength far surpasses the Xiyue Immortal Emperor behind Lu Chen; she shouldn’t fear the Xiyue Immortal Emperor."
The Blood Ancestor explained, "It’s not the Xiyue Immortal Emperor she fears, but Lu Chen himself. You’ve practiced the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture disseminated by Lu Chen, which has a terrifyingly potent restraining effect on the Heavenly Demon Power."
"Moreover, Lu Chen has an Immortal Law even more potent than the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture to counter the Heavenly Demon Power."
Upon hearing this, the Hidden Moon Sect Leader pondered if this might be why the Blood Ancestor dared not directly attack the Daqin Immortal Dynasty.
The Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture of Lu Chen not only could counter the Heavenly Demon Power but also had restraining effects on Evil Qi, and it had certain influences on malevolent powers. The Blood Ancestor mentioned that Lu Chen possessed an Immortal Law even more powerful than the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture, which suggested that this Immortal Law might also counter the Heavenly Demon Power and Evil Qi.
Realizing that Lu Chen concealed his strength in the battle between the Barbaric and the Southern Domain, the Hidden Moon Sect Leader became increasingly displeased with Lu Chen.
If they could seize this Immortal Law from Lu Chen and cultivate it, they would no longer need to fear the Blood Ancestor or the Demon Emperor.
With this thought, the Hidden Moon Sect Leader made up his mind that the Immortal Law mentioned by the Blood Ancestor must be obtained by the Hidden Moon Sect.
...
Daqin Immortal Dynasty.
Imperial Palace.
In the Cultivation Room, Lu Chen was harnessing the Heaven Opening Seal to absorb the Qi Fortune of the Tianyan Immortal Domain. At that moment, he sensed the presence of the Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable, and he immediately ceased his cultivation, teleporting instantly to the Imperial Study Room.
The Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable was already waiting in the Imperial Study Room. Upon seeing Lu Chen’s arrival, he promptly saluted and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Lu Chen inquired, "Has the Hidden Moon Sect made any new moves?"
The Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable immediately replied, "The Hidden Moon Sect Leader has come out of seclusion, and the Hidden Moon Sect Leader has already allied with the Blood Ancestor, planning to attack the Daqin Immortal Dynasty."
As he spoke, the Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable condensed the memories of the Hidden Moon Sect Meeting Hall into a Memory Pearl and presented it to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen lifted his finger, sending a strand of immortal power into the Memory Pearl, reading the memories within.
After reading the Memory Pearl, Lu Chen fell into contemplation. Currently, his cultivation state was merely at an Immortal Venerate level. If he truly faced the Blood Ancestor, he might not be able to compete with him.
However, judging by the Blood Ancestor’s behavior, he seemed reluctant to confront him directly and intended to use indirect means against him, otherwise he would not have approached the Hidden Moon Sect Leader.
This Blood Ancestor was indeed cautious in his actions.
It seemed that his past life must have left a substantial psychological impact on the Blood Ancestor, otherwise the Blood Ancestor wouldn’t hesitate to take direct action against him.
Seeing Lu Chen silent, the Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable tentatively asked, "Your Majesty, how do you plan to handle this?" 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Lu Chen snapped back to reality and then spoke, "If the Blood Ancestor doesn’t make a move, the Hidden Moon Sect may not be a match for the Daqin Immortal Dynasty."
The present Daqin Immortal Dynasty was no longer what it once was; its Qi Fortune was abundant, nurturing many Immortal Venerates. Most importantly, the forces from the Southern Domain that went to the Eastern Domain had all joined the Daqin Immortal Dynasty, and he possessed the Spirit Realm Crossing Array, which could transport these forces from the Southern Domain to the Barbaric Domain at any time.
If it truly came to a battle, the victor or loser would still be uncertain.
As for the Hidden Moon Sect Leader, ever since his battle with the Blood Ancestor, his strength had declined significantly. Even if he manipulated the Divine Corpse again, he likely couldn’t achieve the same might as he did in the great battle in the Southern Domain against the Blood Ancestor.
Now, Lu Chen was more concerned that the Blood Ancestor might personally intervene. The Blood Ancestor refrained from attacking him initially, likely to let the Hidden Moon Sect gauge their capabilities. If the Blood Ancestor found out that his cultivation was only at the level of an Immortal Venerate, he might suddenly take action against him.
Thinking this, Lu Chen told the Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable, "Keep monitoring, and inform me immediately once the Hidden Moon Sect dispatches their troops."
"Understood, Your Majesty, I take my leave!"
As the Fire Phoenix Immortal Venerable departed, Lu Chen’s attention instantly shifted to the body in Tianxi Palace.
