Chapter 969: Chapter 779: The Forbidden Secrets of the Emperor_3

Zhang Guangyu had already discussed this with him earlier, and naturally, he didn’t mind. He just didn’t expect it to be brought up suddenly at this time.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Guangyu nodded and continued, "Normally, when someone of the direct line awakens, they should immediately contact the Dao Court and be sent to the Central Immortal Palace above the Thirty-three Heavens."

"But due to the current war situation, the Yaoshan Realm is sealed, easy to enter but hard to leave. Fellow Daoist will spend more time in the clan, so I propose to establish an additional Supreme position especially for this time. What do you all think?"

"Excellent!"

"We will follow the Patriarch’s orders!"

All disciples responded in unison. Seeing this, Wang Zijia had some flickering thoughts.

Establish a Supreme position?

It seems that the situation in the Yaoshan Realm is not very optimistic, as this clearly indicates an intention for him to stay for an extended period.

"..."

While Wang Zijia was lost in thought, all disciples offered their congratulations.

Only then did Zhang Guangyu begin to address the second item on the agenda, or rather, the core issue of this meeting.

At his signal, several disciples stepped forward.

"After rigorous screening over the past few days, we finally discovered an anomaly in Yanluo Valley."

With that, a few disciples advanced, speaking while simultaneously activating an Illusion Technique. An image was projected above the Great Hall.

In the deep canyon, countless Resentful Souls were converging, as dark as ink, like a sky full of evil spirits.

Through the dense Resentful Souls, one could see at the core a colossal Altar, with the familiar figure of a Holy Spirit floating within.

This was none other than the Profound Immortal level Holy Spirit that had previously escaped.

"According to our observations, this creature is not only gathering all the Devil Spirits and Resentful Souls from the Yaoshan Realm, but it also seems to be preparing something. We suspect it is attempting to break the sealing and contact or summon external Devil Spirits."

The numerous domains within the Warzone are enclosed by a regional force. For both sides, entering the domain is easy but leaving is difficult.

If the connection with the outside were completely cut off, it would count as a failure of the invasion.

Hence, the Holy Spirit is also somewhat trapped.

"We absolutely cannot let it continue like this. Otherwise, once it is ready, we should prepare our graves."

"The disturbances happening all around the clan right now are likely due to its meddling."

"Looking at the scale of this, we should be able to fight. Ancestors, let’s go to war!"

"..."

Everyone, watching this scene, made their remarks in unison.

However, Wang Zijia shifted his expression. Before he could speak, a Celestial Immortal, thinking along the same lines as Wang Zijia, voiced a suggestion, "Can we not wait, and when he attempts to open a breach, take the opportunity to contact the Dao Court?"

With these words, many of the discussions quieted down.

But someone immediately replied, "No, that’s too risky. Right now, we’re just under a sealing status, loosely within the Peripheral World, with only some wandering Devil Spirits occasionally slipping in."

"If we let it establish a complete link and determine the situation in our Yaoshan Realm, what awaits us is surely an army bearing down."

Immediately someone echoed, "Right, we don’t need many. Just one golden immortal sending a mere incarnation could obliterate our Zhang Family of the Yaoshan Realm."

"..."

After a brief Deliberation, someone asked, "What do the two Patriarchs think?"

Zhang Guangyu looked around at everyone and said with a dignified air, "Waiting is definitely not an option. Not to mention that the other side’s preparations are too disadvantageous for us."

"Even if the other side could really do something externally, we might not be able to use means to send a message out. It’s more likely that we would be trapped like a turtle in a jar."

With that statement, he instantly made the overall direction clear to everyone.

Zhang Guangyu paused, then added, "However, going straight into battle... I was unable to do anything to it before, and now, switching from passive to active engagement, doesn’t give us much certainty either."

As he spoke, he looked at Wang Zijia with an inquiring gaze.

Wang Zijia hesitated for a moment before quickly understanding. He said, "I can still unleash the combat power from a few days ago, but due to sustainability issues, I can probably only assist and entangle, not necessarily play a decisive role."

"That’s enough!" Zhang Guangyu nodded, decisively suggesting, "Then let’s encircle and exterminate it first, shall we?"

Wang Zijia nodded.

All disciples, seeing this, responded in unison, "We will follow the Patriarch’s Decree!"

As the voices of agreement subsided, they all left to prepare for the coming proactive strike.

Wang Zijia hesitated for a moment, not leaving immediately. Seeing this, Zhang Guangyu didn’t take immediate action either.

After everyone had dispersed, Zhang Guangyu took the initiative to ask, "Fellow Daoist, is there anything else you need to explain?"

Wang Zijia nodded and said, "I have an array that should temporarily trap the opponent. Do you have any ultimate moves?"

Zhang Guangyu’s eyes brightened, "Aside from practicing Shangqing Swordsmanship, I’ve also cultivated Yuqing Thunder Method. Combining these two Divine Powers should have significant efficacy against soul entities."

"Excellent!" Wang Zijia said simply, then vanished on the spot to prepare.

"..."

Two hours later, the Zhang Family had quickly gathered their disciples. Led by Wang Zijia and Zhang Guangyu along with a host of Immortals, they set out towards their destination.

The whole process wasn’t disguised, for such a large movement couldn’t be hidden.

Thus, the main strategy was speed; in warfare, speed is crucial.

Although the Yaoshan Realm was large, for the heavens-spanning God Monarchs and Immortals, it didn’t take much time to traverse.

So, in less than an hour, the host of Immortals arrived at their destination.

In a massive canyon shrouded in ghost fog, a thick defensive Light Screen had already been activated.

Faced with the onslaught of thousands of monks, it appeared to be fortifying its defenses!

Upon seeing this, Wang Zijia and Zhang Guangyu exchanged a look, their expressions growing graver.

This behavior of not fleeing or engaging in prior combat, but rather, hunkering down, clearly indicated that the other side was charging up a powerful strike.

"..."

PS: I’ve had a low fever for five days, and today the symptoms are finally starting to subside. I’ve nearly collapsed. There will probably be only one Chapter today, and I estimate that I might return to normal updates by tomorrow!
