Su Yu thought for a moment. "Old Chen, have you counted the resources stored in the empire's branch?"
Old Chen nodded. "All kinds of elixirs, cultivation techniques, materials, and treasures are enough for our Heavenly Law Alliance to use for a month."
"A month? That's not too bad." Su Yu's eyes flickered. There were not many soldiers stationed in the empire's branch. There were only ten Region Masters, one Palace Master, and a small number of silver-clothed and purple-clothed guards.
Their annual consumption of resources to sustain ten thousand people for a month was already their limit.
"Gather all the elixir masters in the alliance and quickly make all kinds of elixirs that can increase one's cultivation. Give priority to the most talented alliance members, as we are still too weak," Su Yu instructed.
In the previous battle, the Heavenly Law Alliance's members' fighting power had been exposed.
Ten thousand people had fought against twenty-three people, and they had sacrificed a few hundred people to kill one of their opponents, who was heavily injured.
With such a fighting power, facing the Fifth Saint Master's army of a thousand people would be like throwing an egg against a rock.
Old Chen was shocked. Su Yu wanted to lead his army to face the Fifth Saint Master's army? That was equivalent to all of the otherworldly invaders' forces in the Zhenlong Continent!
How could they achieve such a feat with just ten thousand people?
"Alliance Master, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. Even if we gathered all of the Zhenlong Continent's materials and alchemists, it would still be difficult to raise the Heavenly Law Alliance's fighting power to the level of the Fifth Saint Master's army! We only have twenty Two Crystals Half Fairy Realm experts, and less than a hundred One Crystals Half Fairy Realm experts. This is the result of the world's change three years ago, which caused the Spiritual Energy to become ten times denser. With our current strength, how could we face them? "Old Chen voiced out his doubts.
In Old Chen's eyes, it was already difficult for them to win this battle. Facing the Fifth Saint Master's army, which was ten times stronger than before, was like a fantasy.
"Do as I say!" Su Yu scolded, not allowing anyone to object.
Old Chen shivered and his heart tightened. "Yes, Alliance Master."
"Although the Zhenlong Continent is vast, where can we find a place to stay? The southern continent, the western continent, or the eastern continent? Old Chen, do you see a way out? "Su Yu turned around, his eyes clear and bright. His words were filled with a soul-shaking voice that was deafening to the ears.
Old Chen's heart shuddered. Yes, how could there be a place for them in the Zhenlong Continent?
They had nowhere to run and could only fight with their backs against the wall.
"Alliance Leader, please understand. I'll get it done right away. However, the materials are limited. Furthermore, Phoenix Master Qiu, who is the best at alchemy, is still unconscious. I'm afraid that our progress will be limited in a month's time," Old Chen added, his eyes filled with worry.
Su Yu nodded. "Alright, I got it. Just follow my instructions. I have another way."
Finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and returned to his room.
Old Chen bowed and took his leave. He immediately gathered the remaining alchemists from the Heavenly Dao Union and the Northern Continent's dynasty branch to refine elixirs that could raise one's cultivation level.
Life and death depended on this.
In the house, the coldness on Su Yu's face disappeared and was replaced by gentleness.
In his room, there were three figures lying quietly.
Elder Jiu, Phoenix Master Qiu, and Xia Jingyu.
"Do you really want to fight the Fifth Saint Master?" Elder Jiu opened his eyes and sat up with great difficulty. He had woken up a few days ago, but because his injuries were too severe, he had to recuperate under Su Yu's protection.
Su Yu's eyes were filled with respect, and he said calmly, "If we don't fight, we will die. We have no other choice."
Elder Jiu's eyes, which were usually filled with drunkenness, were now clear and filled with complex emotions.
How could he have imagined that the lad he had protected in the past would grow to the point where he could protect him? Moreover, he had even taken over the Heavenly Law Alliance and become the Alliance Master of this influential faction?
There were only three years between them.
"Then, do you have a way? I once saw the Fifth Saint Master's clone attack. Even the First World Senior, who possessed a powerful body, was suppressed by a single palm strike. "Elder Jiu looked into Su Yu's eyes and asked.
Was that palm strike the Heaven Extinguishing Divine Palm? The Fifth Saint Master could rely on such a palm strike to fight an ordinary Level Nine Fairy.
Su Yu thought about it for a moment, then shook his head with a bitter smile. "I don't have one."
When he told Old Chen that he had another way, he was just trying to comfort him. After all, how could it be so easy to raise the cultivation levels of ten thousand people?
Now that Elder Jiu had asked him about it, he told him the truth.
Elder Jiu sighed. "Then, how do you plan to settle them? After a month, the army will come, and all of the Heavenly Law Alliance's members will be slaughtered. You might not care about their lives, but what about your fiancée, Qin Xianer? Also, do you have a close relationship with Lord Yi Yu? "
"Now that the Fifth Saint Master has come out of seclusion with his army, I think that the Zhenlong Continent's situation will undergo a drastic change. I can feel that they have already accumulated enough power. What awaits the Zhenlong Continent is the reincarnation from ten thousand years ago. A massacre is unavoidable."
Ten thousand years ago, the Zhenlong Continent had been plunged into a boundless calamity.
Now, ten thousand years later, history would repeat itself.
As Su Yu looked at Xia Jingyu's peaceful and dreamy face, his heart became heavy.
How could he protect Xia Jingyu when such a calamity would descend in a month? As for Xianer, they had just reunited. Would they have to be separated by life and death again?
Su Yu's heart became heavy.
In fact, apart from them, there were still many people in the Zhenlong Continent who needed protection.
From the Shenyue Island to the Hundred Territories Alliance, then to the northern continent's empire, there were many people who needed protection.
Once the Fifth Saint Master arrived with his army, everything would be razed to the ground.
Would history repeat itself? Su Yu wasn't confident that he could survive such a calamity.
"I have an idea, but I don't know if you are willing to take the trouble to do so," Elder Jiu said.
Su Yu was surprised. "Oh? Elder Jiu, please tell me. "
Since they had such an opportunity, why did the Heavenly Law Alliance suffer such a crushing defeat? Why did they even injure him?
"It's quite simple. Go to the Empire of Darkness! Here is a letter that I wrote. If you hand it to the King of Darkness, he will be able to call for reinforcements. " Elder Jiu took out a letter from his bosom. The words on it had dried up, and it was a letter that he had prepared a few days ago.
Did he already expect such a day to come?
"How many soldiers does the Empire of Darkness have?" Su Yu squinted his eyes. He didn't doubt the Empire of Darkness's power.
Although the Empire of Darkness was still besieged and hadn't even fought a battle, Su Yu didn't doubt that it had the power to fight against the otherworldly experts.
The Empire of Darkness was a faction that had existed for ten thousand years. It was founded by the Jiuzhou Emperor's Five Great Guards, and it had always been the continent's strongest faction.
No one knew how much power it had accumulated over the past ten thousand years.
This terrifying faction had never shown itself before.
"How many soldiers do they have?" Elder Jiu smiled mysteriously. "They are so many that the Fifth Saint Master only dares to come out of seclusion."
Su Yu's pupils contracted slightly. In other words, the Fifth Saint Master hid in the Dragon Abyss of the Nine Underworlds for three years because he was afraid of the Empire of Darkness.
Just how powerful is the Empire of Darkness?
"Now that the Fifth Saint Master is about to come out of seclusion, you should pass this message to him. It's time for the Empire of Darkness to make a move. This is a letter that I wrote personally. You should pass it to the King of Darkness. He will know what to do. "
Su Yu's eyes were filled with curiosity. "Elder Jiu, is the King of Darkness still alive? Ever since he came out of seclusion and defeated the Tu Clan of the Eight Great Ancient Clans, he has never shown himself again. Even the Seven Lords of Darkness don't know whether he is still alive or not. So, can I deliver this letter to him? "
Hearing this, Elder Jiu laughed. "Him? Humph, no matter who dies, he won't die. You can rest assured. As for this letter, you just need to tell me that it's written personally. Then, someone will pass it to the King of Darkness. "
Is that so? A curious look appeared in Su Yu's eyes. He was quite curious about the Zhenlong Continent's overlord.
This legendary figure was fully deserving of being called a peerless monarch.
His figure shrouded the whole continent.
Ever since he entered the Empire of Darkness, his name had resounded like thunder. Back then, Su Yu was just a nobody who had come from the Shenyue Island. Now, he had the opportunity to meet such a legendary figure in person.
As he thought of this, Su Yu became even more interested.
"Fine, I will go to the Empire of Darkness." Su Yu nodded. He had to go and borrow soldiers to protect the northern continent and all the people he loved.
Elder Jiu smiled and stuffed the letter into Su Yu's hands. As he looked at him once again, he couldn't help but sigh. "There are times when I misjudged you. When I met you in the past, I never expected that you would reach such a level. It seems like I have become old, and my eyesight isn't as good as before."
Su Yu smiled calmly. "Since you have a disciple like Dalei, why do you need to be so modest? His talent is extraordinary, and he will surely become someone great. "
The reason why Elder Jiu accepted this alien race with the head of a dragon and the body of a human was that he was extraordinary.
Elder Jiu was startled, and a complicated look appeared in his eyes. "Dalei, he … Ah, forget it. There is no point in telling you. You should prepare to leave as soon as possible. It is better to borrow soldiers to prevent future troubles."
"Alright, I will leave after I settle some matters." Su Yu didn't forget that there were still many unresolved matters.
"Elder Jiu, may I ask where Palace Master Ling is now?" Su Yu's eyes were filled with anticipation. He had entered the Mysterious Heavenly Divine Pavilion for Ling Xiaotian.
Elder Jiu patted his head. "I almost forgot."
He took the wine gourd from his shoulder and shook it vigorously. It wasn't wine that poured out. Instead, it was a faint golden light ring.
The light ring gradually expanded until it was the size of a human. It was the dragon-shaped coffin!
"Although this item is a broken low-grade divine artifact, it is quite extraordinary. It can absorb the spiritual energy of the world and maintain the body of a severely injured person. It is only because of this that Palace Master Ling is still alive." Elder Jiu was full of praise for the dragon-shaped coffin.
However, Su Yu knew that it was impossible for the dragon-shaped coffin and the Vital Energy left behind in the past to keep Ling Xiaotian alive. It was Elder Jiu who had used his own Vital Energy to keep Ling Xiaotian alive.
"Elder Jiu, I will never forget your great kindness." Su Yu didn't explain and just bowed.
Elder Jiu's face was filled with gratification and appreciation. He chuckled. "For the sake of your past kindness, you didn't hesitate to go to the Mysterious Heavenly Divine Pavilion and risk your life for Palace Master Ling.
"Elder Jiu, you are flattering me." Su Yu smiled modestly. His principle was to repay kindness. In his eyes, there was nothing special about it.
