Chapter 2159

When the news that they needed to send people into the Star Road arrived, the experts of Hu Ping City sat together to discuss the matter. Everyone had the same status, so there was no difference in priority.

"Back then, Zi Chen said that the Star Road was too dangerous, and that ordinary Heaven Realm experts would only die if they stepped in," Wu Xie said. Many years of battle had made him less impetuous, and more iron-blooded like a general on the battlefield.

"We don't have many Heaven Realm experts here, so we can't send them to their deaths," Shang Guan Hong said. After the baptism of continuous battles, she had become a valiant female general. There was no more affection in her eyes, only indifference. She was surrounded by an intimidating aura, and many Heaven Realm experts from other races had died at her hands over the years.

The Fortune Teller remained silent. His temperament was not very different from before, but he had become much calmer. Entering the Star Road was obviously a suicide mission, and he could not deduce a chance of survival. He did not have any good ideas for the time being.

Dong Qing and Jin Qing Cheng sat at the side. They rarely spoke, and they looked very gentle. However, once they were on the battlefield, they would turn into demonesses, causing many of the other races to tremble in fear.

Especially Dong Qing, because of her special status, there would be a large number of Heaven Realm beasts following her every time she appeared. If they fought with her, groups of Heaven Realm experts would have to come. Otherwise, they would face the fate of being surrounded.

The others chose to remain silent. This time, the Great Sage Yin Zhong had given them a big problem by sending people into the Star Road.

"The battle is urgent, so the others can't go. I'll go personally," Man Shi sighed and started to fight. His body became bigger and bigger, and his muscles bulged. He was full of explosive power. He had already stepped into the Heaven Realm, and the strength of a Mountain Spirit was displayed.

Once Man Shi entered the Star Road, Hu Ping City would lose a general, but the chances of him surviving in the Star Road would be higher.

The atmosphere was still silent, but sometimes silence meant consent.

"It's too dangerous to go alone. I'll go with you. If we encounter danger, we can take care of each other," Shun Tiandao stood up. He was another general of Hu Ping City, and he followed the Heavenly Dao and used the Heavenly Dao's rules.

Seeing that the others were worried, Shuntiandao said, "In the upcoming battle, we will not take the initiative to attack. With the protection of the Twins' formation, we do not need to take the initiative to kill the enemy. Before the Saints of the other races arrive, we will have no problem defending ourselves. This time, we entered the Star Path for our future, and it is imperative that we do so. I believe that the other families will also send experts.

Man Shi nodded and said, "That's right. This time, we're fighting for the future of the Martial Continent. We're carrying a mission, and we'll definitely become Saints. Furthermore, we'll find Zi Chen and return with great momentum."

At their insistence, the matter was settled.

Shun Tiandao and Man Shi entered the Star Path from the First Continent along with the experts from other forces.

When they entered the Star Path, several Saints who had disappeared before appeared. They joined forces with the Great Sage Yinzhong and the Saint Weapon, the King Sword, to invoke the rules of heaven and earth, which could be considered as cheating. They tried their best to teleport everyone together, so that everyone could join forces to enter the Star Path.

Looking at the disappearing figures, the Yinzhong Grand Sage sighed, "I hope they succeed."

The Thunder Sacred Beast, who had transformed into a human, said, "After entering the Star Road, life and death will depend on their luck. I wonder how Zi Chen is doing."

"The rules of heaven and earth are still clear. This proves that he's definitely still alive."

On the other side, the Azure Dragon Saint said, "Zi Chen has the protection of the heavens. There's no need for us to worry about him. However, the war in the Martial Continent has been retracted. This way, the strange races will have enough space. I believe that after they fail to take down the Star Path for a long time, they'll split up and attack the Sky Martial Continent."

"The strange races have too many people. It's inevitable that they'll invade the Sky Martial Continent. It's been like this since ancient times. It's just that we don't know where the Thunder Divine Palace will appear this time." The Thunder Sacred Beast sighed.

"No matter where they appear, it'll be a disaster."

The Azure Dragon said solemnly. The reason for the strange races' invasion was because of the Heaven-Defying Cultivators, but more importantly, it was because of the Thunder Divine Palace.

In this world, there was a rumor that only they knew. Only when the Heaven-Defying Cultivators appeared and the rules of heaven and earth became active would the Thunder Divine Palace appear again.

Other than that, the Thunder Divine Palace could be said to be a disaster.

This was also the reason why no experts went to investigate the Thunder Divine Palace the last time. Furthermore, the destruction of the Everlasting Sect was also a fact.

To existences like them who had lived for who knows how long, the Thunder Divine Palace was not an opportunity, but a disaster.

It was as if the purpose of the Thunder Divine Palace's existence was to allow the strange races to destroy the living beings of this world.

The Thunder Divine Palace was a mysterious and dangerous place. No one knew what was inside. Even the Saints did not know.

Perhaps the Thunder Ancestor knew, but his whereabouts were unknown, and his whereabouts were a mystery.

Sky Martial Continent

Because Zi Chen had unified the Four Time Castles when he left, all powers with Earth Elements could come here to cultivate. Experts began to appear here like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

They did not need to fight for resources. They only needed to increase their strength. However, during this period of time, there were all kinds of dangerous places for them to train in. While increasing their strength, they did not forget to stimulate their fighting spirit.

Zhang Haotian had gone to the Heavenly Assassins Alliance to undergo the Netherthorn Trials. He still had not returned. The entire Everlasting Sect was being managed by Zi Chen's close female friends and life and death brothers. As for Chen Feng and Sun Ling, they were in seclusion to comprehend the Heavenly Dao Techniques.

Everyone knew that the strange races could invade at any time, and that danger could descend at any time. Everyone cultivated even more diligently.

The battle had yet to begin, but the Sky Martial Continent had already been unified. All kinds of secret places were opened, and they were closely connected to each other.

Furthermore, the ancient races on the Ancient Road would occasionally come to provide resources to the Everlasting Sect.

"All of you, hurry up. Don't come out unless you enter the Heaven Realm. Don't save resources for the Everlasting Sect. Don't be stingy. Increasing your own strength is the way to go."

Outside a Time Castle, Evil Good's loud voice rang out. Recently, because of his special status, he had brought many disciples of the Buddhist Sect here.

Towards this kind of behavior that clearly broke the rules, Devil Ape and the others turned a blind eye. After all, the relationship between this monk and Zi Chen was not ordinary.

Fortunately, these monks knew the rules. They did not occupy a lot of cultivation places and did not disturb others. Most of the time, they just meditated. Fortunately, even Su Mengyao and the others tacitly approved of this behavior.

The war could begin at any time. Naturally, it was impossible for everyone to be treated fairly. The opening of resources still favored the experts.

The number of mortals in the Sky Martial Continent rapidly decreased. This was not because something had happened to these people, but because they had obtained the simplest cultivation techniques and the rich Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in this world. Almost all of them had become cultivators.

On this day, the guardian of the Qinglong Sacred Ground took the initiative to walk out of the Time Castle and inform Su Mengyao that the strange races would soon invade the Sky Martial Continent.

"They're coming?"

Hearing this news, Su Mengyao began to gather the leaders of the various factions to discuss how to deal with the strange races.

Su Mengyao had long since thought of this, and she had been implementing this plan for the past few years.

This meeting included all the large aristocratic families. Even the Martial Heaven Alliance was present.

As the acting Sect Master of the Everlasting Sect, Su Mengyao sat in the main seat. Wang Xian 'er, Devil Ape, and the others sat on the sides. Behind them were the leaders of the other factions.

The current leaders of the Everlasting Sect were these women who were not inferior to men. Even the fate of the Sky Martial Continent was closely related to these women's decisions.

"Everyone, we've received reliable news that the strange races are attempting to open a spatial tunnel to enter the Sky Martial Continent."

Hearing Su Mengyao's words, an uproar broke out. However, this uproar did not last long. Everyone quickly calmed down.

This kind of scene was something that everyone had expected when Zi Chen was present. As the atmosphere calmed down, everyone's gaze turned to Su Mengyao.

"We've already discussed this plan, but the speed of implementation was too slow. Now, we need to speed it up. We need to give up on those areas that should be given up. All the factions must enter the cities or families."

Su Mengyao's tone was resolute. "Also, those formation masters need to speed up the transportation formations in the cities. We need to turn the entire Sky Martial Continent into a huge net. This net will be filled with transportation formations. As soon as any city is in danger, we will be able to send reinforcements."

This was Su Mengyao's plan. This plan had been approved a long time ago, and it had been carried out ever since.

This plan was extremely beneficial to the entire Sky Martial Continent. However, it might cause some of the smaller factions to lose out.

For example, some of the smaller factions might have their own cities, but when the strange races invaded, those cities would be abandoned by Su Mengyao. There would be no transportation formations in those cities, and there would be no reinforcements.

These smaller factions could only abandon their cities and enter the larger cities that had formations protecting them.

In the face of danger, there was no such thing as fairness. Once this plan was carried out, everyone would be able to take the initiative when the strange races invaded and had reinforcements.

It was just that using the transportation formations would consume a lot of resources. However, in this era, resources were the least of their worries.
