Breakthrough in Seclusion
Chapter 1514 Breakthrough in Seclusion
Liu Changxu stepped out of the secret room and immediately summoned his wife and children to the reception room of the Ruyi Lotus Palace for a small family meeting.
Having just won a great victory, everyone's faces were filled with joyful smiles, clearly indicating that they had all gained a lot.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Liu Changxu began to speak:
"Although the White Feather Clan's overall strength is inferior to that of the Insect Clan, they are far more troublesome than the Insect Clan. In particular, the White Feather Clan may have a Great Ascension Perfection cultivator, which is a great threat to our human race."
Therefore, I plan to go into seclusion to break through to the late stage of the Mahayana realm. This way, I'll have a better chance of dealing with that White Feather Clan Mahayana Perfection expert.
"Father, what if the White Feather Clan attacks while you are in seclusion and we can't stop them?"
The son, Liu Fuba, asked with a worried expression:
"This possibility certainly exists, but to achieve victory, we must raise our cultivation to the late Mahayana stage. We have no other choice! Moreover, I believe that our mountain-protecting formation can hold out until I emerge from seclusion."
Liu Changxu responded firmly:
Liu Changxu's son, Liu Fuba, and the others who shared the same concern, saw that Liu Changxu had made up his mind and said nothing more.
Then, Liu Changxu gently placed the nine storage bracelets he had obtained from the Mahayana cultivators of the White Feather Clan on the jade table in front of him, and then said to Duan Yuwei and Murong Yuyao beside him:
"These nine storage bracelets were obtained from the nine White Feather Clan Mahayana cultivators I killed. I have already selected some ninth-tier spiritual items, and there are still quite a few high-tier spiritual items left. You can discuss how to distribute them among yourselves, and store the rest in the family treasury."
When everyone saw the storage bracelet that Liu Changxu took out, their eyes lit up with anticipation and excitement.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Liu Changxu turned and left the reception room, heading straight for his secluded cultivation chamber to devote himself to cultivation.
After entering the secret chamber, he took out a bottle of Golden True Water from his storage bracelet, poured half a cup and drank it all in one gulp. Then he sat cross-legged, began to circulate the Crimson Lotus Immortal Scripture, and started to refine the vast spiritual power contained in the Golden True Water.
Just as Liu Changxu was in seclusion, focusing on breaking through to the late Mahayana stage, the White Feather Clan army, which had successfully annihilated the Kunlun Holy Land and the Tianchi Holy Land, began to wreak havoc across the human territory like locusts.
They regarded humans as "heretics," and wherever they went, towns were reduced to scorched earth, and villages were engulfed in flames. Unarmed civilians were driven away and slaughtered, their cries echoing across the wilderness, and blood staining the rivers and the land. Homes that once had wisps of smoke rising from their chimneys were now nothing but ruins; once bustling markets had become a hellish wasteland littered with corpses.
The entire human land was dragged into an abyss of bloodshed and carnage. Those who were lucky enough to survive hid in the mountains or dark corners, their eyes filled with despair.
Ordinary small and medium-sized sects and families were like ants before the powerful White Feather Clan army, utterly powerless to resist, and were wiped out in an instant.
Only a few large cultivation forces with protective mountain formations are still struggling to hold on, but they are like lone boats in a stormy sea, not knowing how long they can last.
When the news reached the Lotus Palace, Duan Yuwei and Murong Yuyao looked grave and immediately convened a meeting of the high-ranking officials of the Great Han Immortal Dynasty to discuss countermeasures.
Liu Fuba clenched his fists and said angrily:
"Aunt Duan, Aunt Murong, the White Feather Clan is now slaughtering our people on human land, committing heinous crimes. We must send troops to save our people from this disaster as soon as possible!"
"I would love to launch an attack right now, but your father is at a critical juncture in his closed-door breakthrough, and the White Feather Clan army could attack my Jiuhua Mountain again at any time."
Therefore, our first priority is to ensure the safety of Mount Jiuhua, protect your father's successful breakthrough, and at the same time, safeguard the millions of people of Mount Jiuhua.
Only if we hold out until your father emerges victorious will we have the strength to confront the White Feather Clan's army.
After listening to Duan Yuwei's explanation, Murong Yuyao thought for a moment and said:
"Sister Duan is right, but if we stand idly by and watch our fellow humans being slaughtered, the people will inevitably feel disheartened. It would be better to send a large army to attack the White Feather Clan army that harms our people, letting them know that we humans are not to be slaughtered at will, and at the same time, rescuing those human people under the threat of the White Feather Clan!" "Exactly! The White Feather Clan is so arrogant; if we don't teach them a lesson, they'll really think we're afraid! Even if we can't achieve a complete victory, we must make them pay a price!"
At this moment, Wu Xuege also spoke up:
Duan Yuwei looked at the earnestness in their eyes, then glanced at Liu Fuba, who was barely able to contain himself, and after a moment of silence, nodded and said:
"Very well, so be it. Send a large army to specifically strike at the White Feather Clan's army that is harming my human people, and to rescue those human people who are threatened by the White Feather Clan."
However, if you are outmatched, do not linger in battle; your own safety must be the priority!
"Sister Duan, let me lead the troops this time!"
Murong Yuyao immediately volunteered:
"Aunt Duan, I want to go too!"
Liu Fuba stepped forward and also volunteered for the fight:
Seeing Liu Fuba's resolute attitude, Duan Yuwei spoke up:
"Alright, you can all go together, that way you can look out for each other!"
Upon seeing this, Liu Fuhai and Liu Fuyin were about to speak, but were stopped by Murong Yuyao through telepathy.
Murong Yuyao understood that, rationally speaking, Duan Yuwei was right. However, as the actual controllers of the Human Race's Holy Court, if their Liu family only considered their own interests in the face of the great calamity, it would inevitably severely weaken the Holy Court and the immense prestige her husband had painstakingly built up!
Without the trust of the entire human race, the Holy Court will find it difficult to gather the strength of the entire human race to fight against the alien races.
Just then, Su Yuxue, who had been silent until now, spoke up:
“Count me in! I’m quite familiar with the situation in different parts of the human realm. If I go with you, we’ll definitely avoid some detours!”
"Great! With Sister Su by my side, I feel much more at ease."
Duan Yuwei immediately nodded in agreement:
Next, everyone discussed the specific details of forming the expedition team.
Because the mission was extremely urgent, after discussion, everyone decided not to follow the principle of voluntary participation, but to directly conscript three million soldiers from the Immortal Dynasty.
Next came another tense preparation of the spiritual items needed for the war...
On the morning of the fifth day, Murong Yuyao, Liu Fuba, and Su Yuxue each led a million-strong army of the Great Han Immortal Dynasty, embarking on their journey in three ninth-tier flying boats.
Before long, the Great Han Immortal Dynasty army led by Murong Yuyao clashed with the White Feather Clan army, which was wreaking havoc everywhere.
Because the White Feather Clan's forces were relatively dispersed, the Great Han Dynasty's army gained a huge advantage in the initial battle. Countless evil White Feather Clan soldiers were wiped out by the Great Han army, and hundreds of millions of human people were successfully rescued.
However, the White Feather Clan's leadership quickly realized what was happening and then concentrated their forces to begin a siege against them.
