1725 Di Liufang's Plan, Enticing Different Factions
Chu Kuangren got a grasp of a lot of new information from Feng Qiyu, and he was intrigued, to say the least. He rubbed the black ring on his finger and started to speculate the Emperor Tribe's next move.
After a while, Feng Qiyu called off the boundary.
She swung her sleeve in the air, scattering countless Daoist patterns away.
Chu Kuangren glanced at the boundary's Daoist patterns. He knew she was powerful enough to fend off Ji Feiyun even without his help.
"Sister, what did you two talk about?" Feng Qingxue came over with a curious look.
"Nothing of importance."
Feng Qiyu simply brushed her sister off with an excuse.
Ling Fei and the others had more or less gathered something useful for themselves, and with that, the incident at Divine Wind Peak was over.
…
"That Heavenly Sword!"
Ji Feiyun emerged from the void with blood spurting from his mouth. His face looked as pale as paper.
He was forced to use the secret technique of the Mystic Divination Tribe to escape from Chu Kuangren. The Deception Technique was a precious technique that could only be used once in a lifetime.
He consumed a lot of his energy in order to make the technique work, so it would not be that easy for him to recover to his prime.
Even though he escaped alive, Chu Kuangren's slash was so powerful that he was still heavily injured. He was holding on to his last string, and with his current condition, even a Gilded Immortal could kill him, let alone the other monsters on the top ten of the leaderboard.
"I must find a place to recover," Ji Feiyun muttered.
Just as he was about to leave, two figures approached him.
When Ji Feiyun had a good look at the two figures, his eyes widened in fear. "Di Liufang and Liu Chuanxing? What are you two doing here?"
"We're here to invite you to join Project Heavenly Sword Breaker."
"Project Heavenly Sword Breaker?"
As soon as Ji Feiyun heard the name, he knew what they were up to. "Are you going against the Heavenly Sword?"
"Yes, we are. Are you keen on joining us?"
"Oh? Break the Heavenly Sword? You make it sound easy, but do you have any idea how strong the Heavenly Sword is? Do you think you and your little team are enough?" Ji Feiyun scoffed.
Even though he held a grudge against Chu Kuangren after his defeat, he had to acknowledge Chu Kuangren's strength, and there was nothing he could do at the moment to avenge himself.
Di Liufang and Liu Chuanxing were not powerful enough either.
"I have come up with a meticulous plan and am actively recruiting," Di Liufang said.
"Oh? Who else is there to join your little ragtag group?"
Ji Feiyun was not interested in Di Liufang's plan, but he was intrigued about the names who were bold enough to go up against the Heavenly Sword.
Di Liufang mentioned a couple of names.
"Oh? It seems like you've gathered quite the group there, but too bad they're not enough."
Even though the names Di Liufang mentioned were all well-known elites on the Heavenly God Leaderboard, they were not strong enough against Chu Kuangren.
"There are a few more names that I'm confident I can get on board with my plan."
"Who are they?"
"Mo Wuji, Crystal Dragon Maiden, Wu Tianming…"
Every time Di Liufang mentioned a name, Ji Feiyun's heart would skip a beat, and his eyes would widen.
The names Di Liufang mentioned were some of the top ten monsters on the Heavenly God Leaderboard, especially Wu Tianming, who was one rank higher than Ji Feiyun.
The names Di Liufang mentioned, plus himself and Ji Feiyun, would make up half of the top ten monsters on the leaderboard.
We're all of them going to deal with the Heavenly Sword?
"Does the Emperor Tribe fear the Heavenly Sword this much?" Ji Feiyun scoffed.
How afraid were they if Di Liufang had to form such a powerful group of people just to deal with Chu Kuangren?
"The Heavenly Sword must be erased," Di Liufang said but did not provide additional explanation.
"If you're in this, what about him?"
"He will join us too if the timing is right."
Ji Feiyun had decided to join Di Liufang's plan. If this 'man' were to join them, it would be a great boost to their confidence to go up against the Heavenly Sword.
"Just you wait, Heavenly Sword!"
"You have sustained quite the injury. I know a healing sanctuary on Ancient Central Heaven Planet. You'll be able to recover to your prime in a few days."
"Thank you."
"Liu Chuanxing, bring Ji Feiyun to the healing sanctuary. I will go contact the others."
"Yes, sir."
…
Meanwhile, on a mountain peak on Ancient Central Heaven Planet, a terrifying cry sounded and echoed across the mountains.
The animals on the mountain ridge were startled by the roar.
An ancient beast stood tall on the peak.
The beast had the face of a tiger and the body of a cow. Its head had horns, and its body was covered with scales.
Mo Wuji sensed the new power he obtained in the mountain, and it put excitement on his face.
Before him was a massive carcass. Judging from the remains, it resembled the monster that he conjured above his head.
"Sky Emerald Tiger-Cow! I didn't expect to run into a beast this powerful here. With this, it will definitely boost my power against the Heavenly Sword!"
Ever since his defeat, he had been holding a grudge against Chu Kuangren.
He came to Ancient Central Heaven Planet to search for more Opportunities of Fortune to become stronger so that he could take revenge.
However, he did not expect to run into an ancient beast's carcass. Using Barren Arch Gilded Intent, he mimicked the beast's form and was able to boost his power to a new high.
The Sky Emerald Tiger-Cow was a rare divine beast that was even more terrifying than the Grim Reaper Mantis and the Evil Ghoul Demonic Ape.
It seemed like Mo Wuji had acquired yet another ultimate weapon.
"But I'm afraid this Sky Emerald Tiger-Cow isn't enough to defeat the Heavenly Sword," said someone behind him.
Mo Wuji turned around and saw Di Liufang behind him.
His eyes narrowed cautiously. "Di Liufang? What do you mean by that?"
Di Liufang explained his Project Heavenly Sword Breaker to Mo Wuji.
"I see. Interesting. I'm in."
"Very well."
…
"Heavenly Sword! I will make you pay for killing one of the Nether King Tribes!"
A black-robed young man stood on a mountain peak, surrounded by black shiny runes and emanating an ominous aura.
He was the Nether King Heaven Daoist, the one ranked fifth on the Heavenly God Leaderboard, Wu Tianming.
"If that's what you wish, I will contact you when we initiate our project," Di Liufang said behind him.
"Mhmm. I look forward to seeing Di Qianqiu, but I'm afraid he won't be needed in this project," Wu Tianming scoffed.
He believed that the current lineup was more than enough to deal with a single person.
Why would they Di Qianqiu?
"Let's hope so."
…
"The Heavenly Sword hurt my brother, and I will make him pay, but I don't want to join you in your little project," the Crystal Dragon Maiden, Long Shuijing, said to Di Liufang.
She was the Dragon Maiden of the Dragon Tribe, a person with pride.
In her opinion, she wanted to challenge the Heavenly Sword fair and square and not ganged up on him with others.
Di Liufang then looked at Chi Longying.
Chi Longying tacitly understood Di Liufang's intention with a single glance. He came up and said, "The Heavenly Sword is unpredictable. You alone are not his match, so teaming up with others is the best shot we have. I will join this project if you don't want, Little Sister."
"I…"
Long Shuijing found herself in a dilemma.
Di Liufang and Chi Longying continued to convince her.
In the end, she agreed to join their project.
