Chapter 1761: Chapter 1604: Joining Forces
"Everyone, please have your spaceship dock at the port, or retrieve it into your Space Ring."
Several disciples dressed in Five Primus Sect robes hovered in the air, their voices spreading out.
Apart from the forces brought by the Four Great Forces, other large and small powers, including families, dynasties, and various forces, have also arrived at the White Dwarf Star, forming dense formations, hovering in the air, followed by the sound of breaking through the sky, all flying in one direction.
That place is the sacred land of the Five Primus Sect, the Wu Kui Sacred Land, also the location of the Five Primus Sect’s headquarters altar.
After about ten minutes of flying, Lin Mo’s gaze took in a mountain range that towered into the clouds, ten thousand feet high, winding like a giant dragon, majestic in grandeur.
And in the sky of this holy mountain, the dark azure sky presses heavily, seeming as if it might collapse at any moment.
Holy Mountain, mountain top.
Teams of people flew in from various places, the sound of breaking wind ringing out.
"Hexagram Sect!"
"Netherworld Sect!"
Leaning against the mountain top of the holy mountain, Lin Mo noticed the figures of the Hexagram Sect and the Netherworld Sect, these super large forces, whose formations and momentum surpassed those of other forces greatly. Although other forces also have dynasties dominating one star and super families, compared to the Four Great Forces, their manpower, strength, and heritage are still much weaker.
At the mountain top, there is a huge circular plaza, the plaza about ten thousand miles in diameter, capable of accommodating tens of thousands without issue.
And on the plaza, according to the strength of various forces, they’ve settled into their positions; the closer to the center, the stronger the force, such as the Hexagram Sect, Netherworld Sect, and Refining God Pavilion being right at the center.
Lin Mo stood with the Refining God Pavilion’s people at the center of the plaza, his Divine Thought silently sweeping over, discovering familiar faces like Xue Chen among the Hexagram Sect group, though clearly, Xue Chen hadn’t noticed him yet.
As the sound of breaking wind echoes, very soon, the vast plaza is filled with dense silhouettes.
"Hmm?"
When Lin Mo’s Divine Thought swept over the Five Primus Sect’s territory, his pupils suddenly contracted slightly. Among the Five Primus Sect’s group, sitting at the head was the Five Primus Sect Master Mao Yan. Although he hadn’t advanced to the Star Domain Level Beginner, the aura he exuded was stronger than the Netherworld Sect Master Tu Ji or Hexagram Sect’s Ban Jiang and others.
It seems just a paper-thin barrier away from the Star Domain Level.
Beside Mao Yan were several white-haired elders of the Five Primus Sect, each exuding a notable aura.
Yet among these people, there stood a Star Sea Level Early Stage cultivator wearing a hooded cloak to the side.
In such an important occasion, the weaker one’s strength, the closer to the front one stands; how does a mere Star Sea Level Early Stage get to stand at the front?
"It really is him?" Lin Mo’s pupils revealed a thick shock, his Sword Eyebrow tightly knit.
"Mr. Lin, have you discovered something?" Zhou Xinyue’s Willow Leaf Eyebrow furrowed, an expression of nervousness on her delicate face.
Lin Mo slightly shook his head, "Nothing, just didn’t expect to see an acquaintance here."
Zhou Xinyue nodded, her gaze lowered, her jade-like fist tightly clenched.
"Rest assured, what I’ve promised you, I will definitely accomplish." Lin Mo glanced at Zhou Xinyue and smiled, comforting her.
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Lin." Zhou Xinyue nodded forcefully.
Moonlight Sect is just a minor sect in the Anlin Star System that can’t present itself on such stages. Zhou Xinyue was an orphan taken in by her Master, growing up in Moonlight Sect. However, the Moonlight Sect’s Green Wood Token attracted calamity, and the entire sect was slaughtered overnight by the Five Primus Sect. Zhou Xinyue barely escaped due to her Master’s protection.
She holds a deep-seated vendetta against the Five Primus Sect.
Yet, given the powerful influence of the Five Primus Sect, avenging her Master alone is impossible.
Now, all of Zhou Xinyue’s hope rests on Lin Mo.
"For everyone to come to my Wu Kui Sacred Land is my honor." At this moment, a somewhat raspy voice enveloped in True Yuan spread slowly across the plaza, audible to all.
The Five Primus Sect Master Mao Yan stood simultaneously, "All of you are representatives holding prestige and position from various forces, families, dynasties, sects across the Anlin Star System. Actually, I’ve gathered everyone here at the Five Primus Sect to discuss a matter, which is forming an alliance!"
The crowd remained silent, evidently aware of the Five Primus Sect’s intentions for this gathering.
But on this plaza, only the other three great forces could possibly contend with the Five Primus Sect; as for the others, none dared oppose the Five Primus Sect.
"Of course, I merely wish to discuss with everyone and talk about the benefits of an alliance. Once we form an alliance, forces from other star systems wouldn’t easily invade our Anlin Star System. By helping and cooperating with each other, our development would be more prosperous." Mao Yan continued, his gaze landing on the Netherworld Sect’s territory.
Everyone else’s gaze also fell on the Netherworld Sect Master Tu Ji.
True to expectations, Tu Ji stood up, musing, "I agree with Sect Master Mao Yan’s perspective. Our Four Great Forces seek ancient relics this time because we aren’t united; encountering the Great Demon Palace and Ice Origin Palace forces means backing off. If we unite together, at least the Great Demon Palace and Ice Origin Palace would have to be wary of us."
"Everybody knows the Netherworld Sect and Five Primus Sect have formed an alliance; Tu Ji speaking for the Five Primus Sect is not unexpected!"
"Hmm, heard Tu Ji and Mao Yan teamed up to injure Pavilion Master Luo Lian of the Refining God Pavilion!"
"Unaware, during the Netherworld Sect’s ancient relic operation, they lost two elders, weakening their power. What benefit did the Five Primus Sect offer them?"
Whisperings spread among the crowd.
The Four Great Forces have always operated independently, no side conceding to the other; forming an alliance would be significantly challenging.
"Indeed, if the Four Great Forces form an alliance, they would have the qualification to compete against super sects like the Great Demon Palace or Ice Origin Palace, but once an alliance is formed, an Alliance Hierarch must be elected. Not just anyone can assume that position; it must be someone convincing." At this point, the Hexagram Sect Master Ban Jiang spoke.
"Naturally, if there’s no strength, even forming an alliance would leave others unconvinced!" Mao Yan laughed, "If we truly form an alliance, I believe the position of Alliance Hierarch should be mine without dispute!"
"Sect Master Mao Yan’s strength truly is formidable; I have no objection to him being the Alliance Hierarch." The Netherworld Sect Master Tu Ji said.
Their synchronized act made the faces of those from the Refining God Pavilion and Hexagram Sect turn somewhat grim; with Luo Lian injured, even joining forces with Ban Jiang might not be enough to counter Mao Yan and Tu Ji’s cooperation!
The leaders of the Four Great Forces are all at the Star System Level High Realm; only someone capable of breaking through to the Star Domain Level Realm can suppress the other three forces. Thus, over the years, the Four Great Forces have continuously collected resources and searched for relics to attempt breaking through to the Star Domain Level and become the strongest power in the Anlin Star System.
The wonderful tale continues tomorrow.
