Chapter 282: Discussion among the Combined Monks
Under the military control system, the execution rate of every task was very high, and the teleportation array was already waiting for them.
Shi Chen and the Nascent Soul cultivator stepped into the teleportation array. With a flash of light, they were instantly teleported to a magnificent palace. The place was heavily guarded, with many cultivators guarding the surroundings, all with solemn expressions.
"Master Shi, the commander-in-chief is waiting for you in the city lord's hall. Please follow me." The Nascent Soul cultivator said as he walked in front to lead the way.
Shi Chen nodded slightly and followed closely.
A moment later, they arrived at the center of the fairy city. In front of them stood a majestic building. Tall stone pillars supported a magnificent dome. Golden light flickered on the top of the hall, exuding a majestic atmosphere.
Arriving at the main hall entrance, the guarding monks saluted respectfully. The Yuanying cultivator stopped and said to Shi Chen, "Master Shi, please come in. I'll escort you here."
Shi Chen took a deep breath and walked into the hall. The hall was spacious and bright. Peng Xuanbo was standing in the center, looking at him with deep eyes.
"Shi Chen, you're here." Peng Xuanbo's voice was steady and powerful.
Shi Chen stepped forward quickly, saluted, and said, "General Peng, I'm back."
Peng Xuanbo smiled with satisfaction and said, "Thank you for your hard work along the way. I am very satisfied with your performance. Not only did you successfully escort those monks, but you also demonstrated great strength and leadership."
Shi Chen said modestly, "You are too kind, Commander-in-Chief. I just did my part."
Peng Xuanbo nodded slightly and continued, "The current war situation is unpredictable, and the sea monsters are still a huge threat to us. The monks you brought will add new strength to us. However, more than 10,000 monks were ambushed by the sea monsters, and tens of thousands of monks died. Alas! It was also my negligence. I should have arranged a monk in the Fusion Stage on each cross-sea flying boat."
"General Peng, it's never too late to mend the fence after the sheep have been lost!" Shi Chen said with a serious expression and a slight frown.
"I have already sent out six combined monks from the coalition forces, and I believe it should be foolproof. Your news also said that there is a matter concerning the survival of this world?" Peng Xuanbo asked with a serious face, staring at Shi Chen.
"It is indeed a major event concerning the survival of this world." Shi Chen said seriously.
"What could possibly concern the survival of this world?" Peng Xuanbo asked doubtfully.
"General Peng, you know I'm searching for spiritual artifacts to regenerate spiritual roots. You once told me that there's a sacred mountain in the Hundong Sea, rumored to hold spiritual root regeneration artifacts. A few years ago, I found out... The Huo Lie Clan has already sent people to verify this, and the Dahe Xianzong of the Lingyuan Continent is also sending people to verify it. If my timing is correct, the Huo Lie Clan should be able to confirm my words by now." Shi Chen recounted everything he encountered while searching for spiritual root artifacts in the Hundong Sea.
Then he took out three battle flags and handed them to Peng Xuanbo: "Take these battle flags and you can go in and explore."
"A true spirit from thirty thousand years ago? A cultivator from one hundred thousand years ago?" Peng Xuanbo was moved and said in surprise while observing the formation flags.
"Yes, the true spirit 30,000 years ago was the leader of the Five Elements Sect. He was also looking for a treasure to renew his spiritual roots and was trapped in that mountain of corpses. The cultivator who was sealed a hundred thousand years ago was the master of the Immortal Court before this world was separated from the Xuanxian Realm." Shi Chen said slowly with a solemn expression.
After pondering for a moment, Peng Xuanbo looked at Shi Chen and asked, "Master Shi, do you know a lot about the past of this world?"
"I've been to the world of cultivation and entered some secret and dangerous places. I do know some things that happened 30,000 years ago and 100,000 years ago. However, these are not important now. Now there is a powerful person who is refining this world and wants it to become his own little world. At that time, life and death will all depend on his thoughts." Shi Chen's face was solemn, and his tone was full of deep worry.
"This concerns all living beings in the cultivation world. We should unite all cultivators in the world to fight together. However, now the human race is at war with the sea monsters, and the situation is difficult to resolve. We can't spare many people to search for the place where the anomaly occurs." Peng Xuanbo frowned, his face full of worry.
"We cannot sit idly by and watch the fate of all living beings in the world. Although there is still a time limit of about three hundred years, for a cultivator, this time is just a few days of seclusion. Commander Peng, although we are fighting against humans and sea monsters, this matter cannot be delayed." Shi Chen said with a firm look in his eyes and an urgent tone.
"I will immediately summon all the human cultivators to discuss this matter together. Master Shi, please wait here for a while." Peng Xuanbo said decisively.
Shi Chen nodded slightly and stood aside waiting quietly.
Not long after, several human cultivators hurried over, with solemn expressions on their faces.
Peng Xuanbo repeated what Shi Chen said to everyone, and everyone looked shocked.
"This matter is of no small importance. If there really is a powerful being refining this world, we must take action as soon as possible." Zhang Qingwen, the head of Chaorui Peak of the Qingming Immortal Sect, immediately expressed his opinion.
"But now the battle between humans and sea monsters is in full swing, and it is really difficult for us to spare too many manpower." Chen Zhi, deputy leader of Tianyuan Sect, said in embarrassment.
"No matter how we fight the sea monsters, we have to spare some manpower to search for the place of strange phenomena. Three hundred years is just a blink of an eye for us combined cultivators, and we can't delay it any further." said Cao Gou, the former lord of Laizhou Prefecture.
"Yes, even if we maintain a balance with the sea monster first, or even cease fire first, we must first resolve the crisis of realm refining." said Ma Lingyao, the former lord of Xiqiongzhou.
Everyone expressed their opinions, and the discussion continued. The twenty-seven fusion cultivators were all arguing, but the majority still wanted to resolve the danger of the realm being refined first.
The sea monsters have occupied the Dayu Continent. Even if three hundred years have passed, they can attack back at any time. Once the alchemist realm is refined, everyone will be trapped and become slaves of the one who refined this realm.
"Silence!" Peng Xuanbo shouted softly. After everyone's conversation stopped, he said in a deep voice, "Most people think that we should solve the Refining Realm incident first, while some also want to repel the Siren Clan first.
However, everyone should understand the relative importance of these two matters. I suggest that we focus on finding the places of visions, and while searching for these places, we can also wage war against the Sirens."
Peng Xuanbo's words made everyone fall into deep thought.
After a moment, Zhang Qingwen nodded first and said, "General Peng is absolutely right. While searching for the Land of the Anomaly, we can also contain and attack the Sirens. This will not only help resolve the crisis of the realm being refined, but also prevent us from completely giving up the resistance against the Sirens."
Chen Zhi also agreed: "Indeed, we can send some elite teams to carry out the mission of searching for the Land of Anomalies while raiding the important strongholds of the Sirens to disrupt their deployment."
Cao Gou continued, "In this case, we need to carefully select the monks who will carry out the mission. They must possess both strong strength and sufficient wit and adaptability."
Ma Lingyao said, "We also need to establish an efficient intelligence network to keep abreast of the movements of the Siren and clues to the Land of Anomalies."
