The man dressed in white frowned.
"The Empire of Yutang – where did this nation get the aura of conquering the world? Even when the country was founded hundreds of years ago, its luck was not as strong as it was now, and it had never been recognized by the Heavenly Axiom. Its luck would only deteriorate with each generation, and at most seven generations, it would be destroyed under the wheel of the replacement of the dynasty. The current Emperor of Yutang is the sixth emperor. Even if there's still some providence left, it should be showing signs of decline. How can it be so strong now? "
"Among all the nations in this world, the Empire of Dongxuan is the one with the most providence. The Empire of Dongxuan was founded with great providence; the nation's fortune is long and its meridians are long. In the two hundred years since its founding, the empire has gradually expanded. Ziwei Star is already shining in Dongxuan, waiting for its brilliance to shine. That will be the time when Dongxuan unifies the world. This is an irreversible destiny."
"Even in terms of manpower, resources, wealth, and national power, the Empire of Dongxuan is still the cream of the crop in this world. Its civil and military talents are plentiful, all of them the cream of the crop. It possesses the power to conquer the world. That's why the school issued the State Dictum … to acknowledge Dongxuan as the ruler of the world, it's to accept destiny and follow the natural order. Yet, why has the weather fallen into unprecedented chaos now? Dongxuan's sure-win battle has actually been defeated? "
"Dongxuan's temporary defeat is still acceptable, but why is the weather in chaos now?"
"A few years ago, the Residence of Nine Supremes suddenly descended into this world. While it boosted Yutang's national providence and seemed to show that Yutang had the chance to conquer the world and unite Tianxuan, there's no end to the momentum. Our school has long predicted the Residence of Nine Supremes' domineering presence. Their appearance is only the last radiance of the Empire of Yutang, it will only make the Empire of Yutang the focus of all the other nations. The remaining national providence will weaken day by day, indirectly aiding Dongxuan in draining the other nations' national power."
"What happened later also proved our sect's prediction. The Nine Supremes fell in the battle at Tianxuan Cliff, and the destiny of the nation formed by the providence of heaven and earth that belonged to the Residence of Nine Supremes dissipated completely a year ago. It proved that the providence of heaven and earth cannot be reversed by man, and the destiny of heaven and earth cannot be defied. Using man to fight against heaven will only lead to self-immolation and one's own death. However, the situation has changed, and it has become unrecognizable …"
He stood in the clouds and frowned, unable to figure it out no matter how hard he thought.
"Because of this matter, the entire sect has fallen into chaos and is at a loss as to what to do …"
He let out a long sigh.
The truth was as he said. The entire School of Kismet State had fallen into chaos due to the current incident, splitting into two factions.
Both sides launched all sorts of verbal attacks. Gradually, it developed to the point of a physical fight.
"He hasn't appeared for ten thousand years, but the moment he does, he's already made such a big joke. This in itself is already an extremely absurd joke!"
"You didn't even see anything clearly or confirm anything before you sent out the Country Order. Look at what's happening now? Dongxuan has lost! Not only has it lost, even that so-called God of War has been killed by them … The reputation that our sect has accumulated for tens of thousands of years is about to be destroyed in a single day, turning from a revered existence to the top joke in the world! Hmph! "
"What can we do? The astronomical phenomenon is clear. The stars have fallen on Dongxuan, and the purple sun has risen. That's the sign of unification, the qualification to rule! The astronomical phenomenon was indeed so when the decision was made. Why didn't anyone object then? Why didn't any of you object then? "
"Hmph, heaven and earth aren't complete, and there's no such thing as an absolute astronomical phenomenon. Why didn't we say so then? What's the use? The sect has always been controlled by all of you. Who dares to say no? We were just angry, but we dared not speak up … "
"Nonsense. It was a unanimous decision made by everyone then. We were prepared to use this opportunity to let the School of Kismet State reappear in the martial world and shock the world. Then, we could restore the glory of ten thousand years ago and seize the ten thousand years of providence … Is this the decision made by everyone? Why is it our responsibility now that there's a mistake? It's preposterous! "
"The decision made that day was indeed a unanimous decision. There's nothing wrong with that, but who agreed to give the Kismet State Medallion away? Once that thing is given away, it's a foregone conclusion, a declaration to the world. How could Dongxuan not make a big deal out of it when they obtained this trump card? How could many secluded sects that have stayed in the martial world because of their ancestral teachings not think about defying heaven and changing their fates? Of course, they wanted to use this opportunity to reappear in the martial world, but once they did, they were met with a disaster. Now, it's the School of Kismet State that tricked them! "
"You're being unreasonable. Since the decision was made, the Kismet State Medallion must be given away at the same time. What's the point of not giving it away? Keep it in our hands? How can we talk about restoring our prestige then? Moreover, without the Kismet State Medallion, do you think Dongxuan would have spared no effort in carrying out this matter that day? "
"No matter what you say, the result is that you've made a fool of yourselves and ruined the sect's reputation. You must take responsibility for this. This is a reality that cannot be avoided …"
The School of Kismet State was in a mess of arguments.
It was only in the end that they managed to come to a consensus that was not really a consensus.
"The reality is as it is. Now that we've come to this stage, it's not that we're stuck between a rock and a hard place, we can only move forward. The School of Kismet State's reputation cannot be tarnished and its authority cannot be challenged. Now, the only way forward is … no matter what, Dongxuan must win this battle to conquer the world. Then, our sect won't have done anything wrong and the Kismet State Medallion's ownership is rightfully theirs! "
The decision had been made and the voices within the sect had reached a consensus.
However, how could the struggle between the five empires for the continent's hegemony be decided by a few people from a mere sect?
Even if the sect was filled with peerless experts …
However, this did not involve the martial world's final battle but the ownership of the entire continent's imperial power!
Therefore, they first sent a few people to explore the path. It was necessary to know one's enemy as well as oneself …
However …
"This path … How should we explore it?" The man in white's face was filled with worry, as if he was about to die from anxiety.
This was a huge conundrum that could not be solved.
The truth was definitely not as strong as what they had said to the outside world. It was obvious that they had made a mistake and had already confirmed that they had outsmarted themselves.
Therefore, they did not even know where to start to remedy the situation. How could they not be at their wits' end?
The man in white frowned for a long time, trying his best to come up with a plan to find the crux of the problem, but it was all a blur and he had no idea where to start.
After a while, the man finally exhaled his melancholy and slowly ascended.
He was now five thousand feet high in the air. This was the highest altitude that his cultivation base could reach!
Opening his eyes again, he tried his best to overlook Tiantang City.
The whole of Tiantang City was now under his gaze; there was nothing that he could miss out on.
"My initial prediction was correct, but there's been a shocking reversal now. There must be something wrong with the providence! Ninety-nine percent of this problem lies in the Empire of Yutang. No matter how the other countries influence it, it's difficult for them to interfere to such an extent. The place where the Empire of Yutang's providence flourishes is none other than Yutang's capital city, Tiantang City. If I focus on observing this city's aura, I should be able to find some clues! "
The man in white performed the School of Kismet State's unique cultivation method, observing the flow of Tiantang City's Qi in detail for an hour. When his cultivation base was gradually reaching its limit, a spark of inspiration flashed through his mind. He finally found a clue.
It was also this discovery that shocked the man in white. He did not manage to hold his breath and plummeted like a meteor. Such an unparalleled expert had almost fallen flat on his face.
"It's actually here! Why would it be here? "
These two thoughts struck the man in white's mind at the same time. He could not figure it out no matter how he thought about it, becoming even more bewildered.
After a long while, the white-clothed man adjusted his cultivation aura to its peak state. He soared up again, but this time, he focused all of his attention on one spot.
The other end of his gaze was shrouded in thick clouds. Where else could it be if not the Residence of Nine Supremes?
The people of the School of Kismet State were the best at observing the flow of heaven and earth's Qi Meridians. The Empire of Yutang's reversal of the situation had caused its declining providence to flourish. The change was extremely bizarre. While the people of the School of Kismet State were bewildered by the change, they had naturally observed it countless times to figure out what had gone wrong and why such a change had occurred. It was a pity that no one had found any clues.
During this period of time, the man in white had seen the Residence of Nine Supremes many times, especially the Residence of Nine Supremes. He had seen it more than a dozen times, but he had not discovered anything. The only thing he saw was a thick fog that did not dissipate.
The thick fog that did not dissipate was a mystical phenomenon that belonged to the Residence of Nine Supremes. It had always existed and was no longer strange.
However, when he looked down from the highest point this time, he was surprised to find that the Residence of Nine Supremes actually existed …
"The Qi of Celestial Pole? Is it really the Qi of Celestial Pole? "
