Chapter 736 -391: The Reason_2
Leaving?
Both Li Yuan and Lant Semi-Divine were surprised, only Fang Hai was not so startled, seemingly having anticipated this.
“Fang Hai broke through to become a demigod, successfully returning from the Nine Leaves World.”
“Along with you, Li Yuan,” Dongfang Ji said, “it reassured me that even in my absence, our entire civilization wouldn’t be utterly destroyed.”
“Therefore,”
...
“I embarked on my journey to the Nine Mountains World, and everything went as I predicted, very smoothly, so it only took half a year to accomplish without much danger.” Dongfang Ji’s gaze swept over the few: “There was just one event that went beyond my expectations… three years.”
“I can’t disclose the specifics.”
“But the most time I can remain within our civilization is three years, after which I must leave the Mortal Domain and will not be able to return for a very long time.” Dongfang Ji said.
“To the Divine Realm?” Li Yuan couldn’t help asking.
“The specific reasons will become clear to you once you make your own way into the Nine Mountains World.” Dongfang Ji said.
Li Yuan did not inquire further.
It seemed that Dongfang Ji had sworn a law oath and couldn’t openly discuss many things.
“That is also why I have not shown myself until now.”
“In my plan, I would have had both of you undergo two more years of tempering before handing over the full authority of the civilization to you before I left.” Dongfang Ji looked at Fang Hai and Li Yuan.
Li Yuan suddenly realized.
Today, the topic that the Dongfang Alliance Leader kept stressing, ‘if I am not here,’ might be for this very reason.
It’s not that Dongfang Ji doesn’t cherish the Seven Star Civilization.
But his remaining time is only three years.
“From the beginning, I had no intention of engaging the Myriad Demons Civilization,” Dongfang Ji shook his head: “I can’t breakthrough to become a Pseudo-God… My strength is not enough to kill those Pseudo-Gods, and even if I did kill some demigods, it wouldn’t mean much.”
“Moreover, originally, I wanted the Myriad Demons Civilization to serve as the whetstone for you two,” Dongfang Ji said: “Knowing I will soon leave, this time in the Nine Mountains World, I specifically brought back some secret weapons.”
“The Origin Power Array, forty demigod peak puppets, that was what I brought back before, only I never told anyone.”
“And this time, returning from the Nine Mountains World, I brought back three puppets with the strength of the Pseudo-God threshold.” Dongfang Ji said: “I’ve left one on each Feixing, Heavenly Sea Star, and Blue Star as the ultimate reserve.”
“In secret, it is Yun Lao that controls them.” Dongfang Ji pointed to Cloud Elder at the side.
Those present were all shocked to hear this.
Puppets of the Pseudo-God level?
“Freak! Freak!” Liu Bing’s voice rang in Li Yuan’s mind: “Big brother, your alliance leader is a freak. Even the full fortune of a peak Pseudo-God might not trade for a Pseudo-God level puppet… What kind of treasures does the Nine Mountains World contain, exactly?”
Li Yuan also felt a pang of emotion.
His vision was not bad; he understood the value of the Pseudo-God level puppets.
Such level puppets are usually given by True Gods to their close friends and disciples as ‘guardians.’
And the Dongfang Alliance Leader? He unhesitatingly produced three at once, what magnificent generosity.
“With the Origin Power Array and these puppets for protection, under normal circumstances, even if I am not here, even if the Myriad Demons army invades, they won’t be able to shake our civilization.” Dongfang Ji said: “Just give it another ten years, once you two grow strong, it will be completely stable.”
Everyone nodded, Dongfang Ji had considered everything very thoroughly.
“But, man’s plans are no match for fate.” Dongfang Ji shook his head: “Two months ago, I unexpectedly learned something, Sha Kun Semi-Divine’s Law Comprehension has reached the Pseudo-God level.”
“The Myriad Demons Civilization, usually produces a Pseudo-God every thousand years… Sha Kun Semi-Divine’s breakthrough is too coincidental… perhaps this is fate, and I am helpless against it.”
“This, has forced me to reconsider.”
Everyone was listening.
“Once I leave two years from now, with Sha Kun Semi-Divine in charge, and the Myriad Demons Civilization invading again… can you withstand them?” Dongfang Ji sighed, “At that time, Fang Hai, you had not yet made a breakthrough.”
“I’ve let Teacher down,” said Fang Hai.
Before the great battle in Feixing, aside from numerous puppets and arrays, Fang Hai’s strength was only at the limit of Semi-Divine.
Fang Hai made a breakthrough in the madness of life and death during the great battle.
However, before the battle, by following the prescribed practices, Fang Hai was not certain he could definitely make a breakthrough within two years.
Even if he had broken through, this time, he ultimately failed to stop the attack of the Heavenly Fire Realm Beast.
“In my estimation, if no action is taken, the Seven Star Civilization will face a danger period of 5–10 years,” Dongfang Ji said.
Only the emergence of a strong being who has reached the ‘Initial Rank of Pseudo-God’ could be considered stable.
“Once I have disappeared for too long, it could easily arouse the suspicion of the Myriad Demons Civilization.”
“After all, I have been clandestinely conducting transactions with many deities of the Mortal Domain, even with the ‘Bei Yue Deity’ from the Myriad Demons Civilization,” Dongfang Ji said. (Chapter 266)
The more the crowd listened, the more shocked they became.
“After pondering, rather than betting on the Myriad Demons Civilization not invading, it’s better to set up a trap and eliminate the danger completely,” Dongfang Ji said with a faint smile, “Hence, there came the news of my breakthrough and demise.”
“To make everything more realistic.”
“Except for Xiaoyun, I did not tell anyone the truth and also actively lifted the Soul Control on those two Semi-Divine Alien Races,” Dongfang Ji said, “In addition, I commanded my Soul servant, Ye An Semi Divine, to pretend to regain freedom… to deceive the Eastern Demon Deity.” (Chapter 378)
Whoosh!
With a wave of his hand, a young man wearing Black Armor Combat Armor immediately appeared at Dongfang Ji’s side; it was Ye An Semi Divine.
“Master,” Ye An Semi Divine bowed respectfully to Dongfang Ji and also gave a respectful greeting to several others around him, “Greetings, esteemed ones.”

This scene left Fang Hai, Li Yuan, and Lant Semi-Divine somewhat astonished.
It turned out Ye An Semi Divine had been disguising all along.
“That idiot Eastern Demon Deity, how could he know that Master’s Soul Secret Technique had reached a higher level, one that he, a mere Pseudo-God, could not distinguish between truth and falsehood?” Ye An Semi Divine shook his head, “I, following Master’s orders, slightly disguised myself, and it was enough to fool him.”
The crowd suddenly understood.
“Ye An returning now would definitely lead to his death by the enraged Eastern Demon Deity,” Dongfang Ji said, “So, I have brought him back, and from now on, he will stay in Feixing.”
“Thank you, Master,” Ye An Semi Divine said respectfully.
Whoosh!
Dongfang Ji waved his hand and put Ye An Semi Divine away, apparently not wanting this servant to know too much.
“Once everything is ready.”
“The Myriad Demons Civilization began their probing,” Dongfang Ji slowly said, “In my plan, if Sha Kun Semi-Divine does not appear… even if it means some Semi-Divines die in this battle, even if billions or tens of billions perish, I will not reveal myself.”
“My target is Sha Kun.”
“After all, once he sneaks into Feixing in secret, then breaks through to become a Pseudo-God, you would absolutely be unable to stop him,” Dongfang Ji’s eyes flashed with cold determination, “He must die.”
“This is also something I hope you will remember,” Dongfang Ji looked at Li Yuan and Fang Hai, “As leaders of a civilization, you must be prepared to make tough choices at critical moments.”
“No civilization can flourish forever!”
“The merciful cannot command an army.”
“If the day comes when the civilization’s very existence is at stake, even if it means ten or twenty Semi-Divines must die in battle, even if five hundred billion or a trillion people must die, that action must be taken.”
“The more you want to save everything, the more you will lose everything,” Dongfang Ji’s words caused both Li Yuan and Fang Hai’s hearts to tremble.
