Europe, Poland.
Firocław was the fourth largest city in Poland and also the second largest financial center in Poland after Warsaw. Located on the Oder River in the southwest, it played an important role in Poland's economy, culture, transportation, and many other aspects.
The Dark Citadel was located in the northeast of Firocław. Although the surrounding roads extended in all directions, the landscape was a bit desolate with sparse towns and villages. Only the majestic citadel stood out from the rest. All the residents of Firocław knew about the existence of the Dark Citadel. They also knew that it was a famous super family in Poland.
Deep inside the citadel.
The interior of the dark room was decorated with all kinds of antique utensils and furnishings that looked very exquisite. Sitting on a European-style sofa, Sorotte was reading an ancient book with a solemn expression, comparing it with a map drawn on a sheepskin scroll. In front of him were two black-robed old men with stiff expressions. They were extremely thin and looked like skeletons in clothes.
BAM …
The door was violently pushed open from the outside as a pale but exceptionally handsome young man rushed into the room, panting heavily. Under the dissatisfied eyes of Sorotte and the other two, he shouted, "Patriarch Soroti and Patriarch Soloch's Life Badges have been broken. They … they're dead!"
"What?!"
Sorotte's expression drastically changed while the other two old men were petrified instantly. They stared at the young man in disbelief and an intense killing intent instantly locked on him.
"Say it again!"
Sorotte snapped.
The young man gulped but still hurriedly said, "Patriarch Soroti and Patriarch Soloch's Life Badges have been broken in the ancestral shrine. Their soul wisps have dissipated, which means they're dead. The patriarch guarding the ancestral shrine asked me to inform the Patriarch and the other patriarchs. "
Sorotte clenched his fists with killing intent surging in his eyes. "According to the information sent by the two patriarchs, they're on an island in the Pacific Ocean. If they're still alive, we can use witchcraft to figure out their exact location. But if they're dead, we won't be able to lock their exact location. Further, the two patriarchs are very strong and can be ranked in the top 20 in our Celestial Wizard Clan. What kind of existence did they encounter that made them lose their lives? "
"Patriarch Soroti and Patriarch Soloch's information shows that the island they're on is not far from the mainland," said a black-robed old man with a murderous aura. But on the map we collected, there is no indication of this island at all. Also, if we don't know the exact location, how are we going to find it? "
"No matter how difficult it is, we must find the place where they were killed," said Sorot in a cold voice. No matter who killed them, we must make them pay a painful price. Inform Grand Elder Sorod and ask him to lead some elders to the Pacific Ocean region. We must find the specific address they sent us and find out who the murderer of our clansmen is. "
"Yes!"
The two black-robed elders immediately replied.
Nine Dragons Island.
After talking with the six young disciples from the Whole Unitary Sect for a long time, Tan Xiu learned a lot about the cultivation world from them. At this time, Tan Xiu finally understood that there were actually other cultivation sects with a long history like the Whole Unitary Sect. Although there were very few of them, they did exist. However, they were all hidden in mountains, on islands, or in small worlds.
Nascent Soul Stage
They could be regarded as the top cultivators on Earth. According to what Jin Chanzi and the others knew, there were no more than five people on Earth who had broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage, and there were probably less than 30 Golden Core Stage cultivators.
"It seems that the number of cultivators in the cultivation world, as well as their cultivation levels, is much higher than I imagined. How did you break through to the late-stage of Foundation Establishment in such a short time when Earth's cultivation resources are scarce and the Heaven and Earth spiritual Qi is thin? "Tan Xiu looked at the six people and asked curiously.
"There's something you don't know, Big Brother Tang." Jin Chanzi smilingly said. "The world we live in is very rich in Heaven and Earth spiritual Qi, several times richer than the outside world. Further, our sect cultivates a lot of medicinal herbs, many of which are more than 1,000 years old. Although we've been consuming them, we haven't stopped planting them. Coupled with the fact that we've been collecting precious medicinal herbs everywhere, we're not in a shortage of cultivation resources. "
Tan Xiu suddenly understood what Jin Chanzi meant. This was the heritage of a cultivation sect. For a cultivation sect like the Whole Unitary Sect to have a heritage of more than 1,000 years, its heritage must be very deep.
Suddenly …
"There's something I need to tell you, Big Brother Tang," said Jin Chanzi.
"Go ahead," said Tan Xiu.
"I saw you perform the Thunderbolt Imperial Art before, and its power was amazing," said Jin Chanzi. "So I made the decision and asked Jin Xingzi to inform my Master. My Master is also good at the Thunderbolt Imperial Art, and she's extremely obsessed with it. I think she'll be ecstatic when she finds out and immediately rush over from our sect to ask you about the Thunderbolt Imperial Art. "
Tan Xiu's expression slightly changed. Although he didn't know what the cultivation level of Jin Chanzi's Master was, it was not a good thing for him that an expert from the cultivation world was about to arrive.
Nine Dragons Island.
It would be his base camp in the future. He instinctively didn't want other experts to come here, in case the other party discovered the mysteries of Nine Dragons Island and took it over, causing trouble for no reason.
He didn't even know what kind of sect this Whole Unitary Sect belonged to. He had seen countless dignified disciples of righteous sects who did despicable things for their own purposes. He didn't know whether Jin Chanzi's Master was such a person or not.
If so …
It was likely that he had to make arrangements in advance, lest it was too late to mend the pen after the sheep was lost.
Tan Xiu looked at the calm expressions of Jin Chanzi's group of six and calmly said, "I'll naturally welcome you since there are seniors and experts coming. I'll be happy to exchange pointers with your Master when he arrives and make progress together. "
Shortly after …
Tan Xiu chatted with the six people for a while and then left in a hurry with an excuse that he still had something to do. When he came to the third floor of the palace, Mo Awu and the others had already arrived.
"Have you disposed of the two Celestial Wizard experts' corpses?"
"We've disposed of them, Boss," answered Mo Awu. "There's no trace left."
Tan Xiu nodded and looked at Mo Awu. "Notify Xiaoxue and tell her to tell Tang Guang and Tang An to protect Singluen and secretly come to Nine Dragons Island. If Singkuo's people attack, kill some of them for me. Do remember to transfer all the Everlasting Feast Hall's core experts here as much as possible. "
Mo Awu hesitated and asked, "Boss, have you transferred all our men from Clam Island?"
Tan Xiu was silent for a while before he slowly shook his head and said, "Forget about the men from Clam Island. Don't let them come here for the time being. The reconstruction project on Nine Dragons Island will be finished soon, and they can bring the carefully selected geniuses here when the time comes. "
Mo Awu nodded and spoke in a low voice after a while, "I have a feeling that a storm is coming, Boss. Could it be that this place will really become a battlefield for us and the Celestial Wizard Clan in the future? "
"I can't say for sure now, but I'm afraid they won't let this matter go since two experts from the Celestial Wizard Clan died on Nine Dragons Island." Tan Xiu sneered. "There's bound to be a large-scale battle between us and the Celestial Wizard Clan in the future. However, we also have to guard against the cultivators from the Whole Unitary Sect. "
"Is it the sect of those six youths?" asked Mo Awu.
"That's right." Tan Xiu nodded and said, "I learned from them that their Whole Unitary Sect has Nascent Soul Stage experts and several Golden Core Stage experts. I'm afraid we won't be able to resist them if all the disciples of their sect launch an attack on us. Unless Ji Chimei or Yan 'er take action, all the people from the Everlasting Feast Hall won't necessarily be able to obtain any benefits. "
Mo Awu's complexion changed. The higher his cultivation level was, the more he realized the seriousness of the gap between realms. Let alone Nascent Soul Stage experts, even if several Golden Core Stage experts came, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to resist them.
Mo Awen, who had always been resourceful and resourceful, had heard the conversation between Tan Xiu and his big brother. His eyes flickered and he said, "Boss, I don't think it's appropriate to set the battlefield on Nine Dragons Island if we have to fight the Celestial Wizard Clan or the Whole Unitary Sect. You also said that this island will be our base camp in the future. The construction work on this island is very difficult, and once this place becomes a battlefield, I'm afraid it will turn into ruins after the war is over. I feel that since the initiative is in our hands, we can set the battlefield somewhere else. "
Tan Xiu's expression moved and he asked, "Where?"
"There are 16 small deserted islands in the waters around Nine Dragons Island in the four directions of the north, south, east, and west," said Mo Awen. "The nearest one is about 50 nautical miles away from us, while the farthest one is only 200 nautical miles away. I suggest we set up surveillance stations on these 16 deserted islands. We'll be the first to know no matter which direction the enemy comes from. Then, we can use helicopters to transport our people from the other deserted islands, as well as those from our base camp in Nine Dragons Island. In this way, we can set the battlefield on those deserted islands. "
"We don't have that many helicopters at the moment," said Tan Xiu. "Also, the signal at sea is very poor, and it's very difficult to transmit messages in stormy weather. In case the enemy comes in such a harsh environment, we'll fall into a passive position. "
"If you don't have enough helicopters, we'll buy them immediately," said Mo Awen. "I have a way to buy no less than 10 helicopters in a short time. The environment won't affect our ability to transmit information. Have you forgotten our identity? "
Identity?
Tan Xiu stared blankly.
