In the sky above Dragon-shaped Island, two figures stood thousands of meters high. The people on the ground couldn't see them at all, but they could see everything on Dragon-shaped Island. They were none other than Lin Muyu and Tang Xiaoxi, who had just returned from the East Sea.
"Do you think Qin Yi will give up?" Tang Xiaoxi asked.
"I don't know …"
Lin Muyu frowned. "First of all, Qin Yi might not believe our map. Second, Qin Yi is old. Returning to his homeland is his biggest dream. He might not be able to resist this temptation. Xiao Xi, have you really informed Min Yulin's army?"
"Yes."
Tang Xiaoxi was a little worried. "Mu, I actually don't understand. Why did we tell the Yihe Nation about the Celestial Pole Continent? I'm afraid only the two of us know about this in the entire Shattered Cauldron Realm. Why did we tell the Yihe Nation instead of letting the Empire take precautions?"
Lin Muyu clenched her fists. "Regardless of whether what the people on the merchant ship said is true or not, the existence of the Celestial Pole Continent is already inevitable. The Yihe Nation is on Dragon-shaped Island, which is located in the east of Lingdong Province. If the Celestial Pole Continent really attacks, Dragon-shaped Island will probably be the first to bear the brunt. At that time, Long Qianlin and Ding Xi will become the first line of defense for the humans of the Shattered Cauldron Realm. I don't want them to die in vain. "
A day ago, Lin Muyu and Tang Xiaoxi had found a cargo ship that had gotten lost on the sea in the East Sea. From there, they learned about the tip of the iceberg of the Celestial Pole Continent. It was a plane that was completely different from the Shattered Cauldron Realm. Furthermore, it was also a powerful enemy in the future!
The existence of the Celestial Pole Continent made Lin Muyu and Tang Xiaoxi confused, let alone others.
"I really hope the people on that cargo ship are lying to us," Tang Xiaoxi said softly.
"The possibility isn't high," Lin Muyu said with a frown.
"If that's the case, the Qin Empire will be in imminent danger."
"Yeah."
Lin Muyu thought for a while and said, "For now, we can only hope that the Longdan Army Camp can quickly eliminate the Devil Race and sweep away the scourge of the Devil Race. Then, the whole empire can work together to resist the upcoming war! If it wasn't for the fact that I had to quickly return to set up a defense, I really wanted to go to the Celestial Pole Continent and see what that continent, which is on the same plane as us, looks like. "
Tang Xiaoxi remained silent.
…
In the palace hall of the dragon-shaped island, a simple map was unfolded. Qin Yi, Long Qianlin, Marquis Sunset Manning, Ding Xi, and the others were looking at it together.
"How is this possible?" Man Ning wriggled his chubby palm, took the wine cup from the waiter, and said, "To the east of the Dragon-shaped Island is an endless sea. For tens of thousands of years, I've never heard of another continent. How is this possible …"
Qin Yi narrowed his eyes and said, "General Long, this map was sent by a mysterious person. Do you think … the Celestial Pole Continent really exists?"
Long Qianlin cupped his fists and said, "Commander-In-Chief, let's not talk about whether this Celestial Pole Continent really exists or not. However, the map's records are reasonable and based on evidence. It even marks the military strength of the three empires in the Celestial Pole Continent. I think … we have to guard against it."
Ding Xi stretched out his palm and stroked the rough map. The figures on it were just drawn. He thought for a while and read the words on it, saying, "The total area of the Celestial Pole Continent is more than seven times that of the Shattered Cauldron Realm. It is ruled by three empires. Among them, the Tianji Empire is the strongest, with 800,000 elite troops. The Celestial Empire has the largest territory, occupying 40% of the continent. Its six major armies have a total military strength of 1.5 million. The Blackstone Empire has the smallest territory and the smallest population, but it also has 500,000 elite troops. If what is recorded on this map is true, I'm afraid that the doomsday has come for both the Yihe Empire and the Qin Empire."
Qin Yi said, "Now that our three armies are on standby, are we going to attack the Lingkong Province or not? If we miss this opportunity to strike with QianFeng, I'm afraid there won't be a next time. "
Qin Huan said, "Father, don't think so much. Let's attack. This is a great opportunity for us to take revenge. The majority of the Longdan Army Camp's troops have already entered the Heavenly Gorge. The Lingkong Province and the Lingdong Province are both empty. Our 200,000 troops are enough to wipe them out."
"What happens after wiping them out?"
Ding Xi frowned and said, "We and the empire will both suffer heavy losses. At that time … if the Celestial Pole Continent really starts a war, how are we going to contend against them?"
Qin Huan's face was filled with disdain. He laughed loudly and said, "Commander Ding is indeed old. A groundless map is enough to stop you in your tracks. With your courage, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult for you to lead the Yihe Empire's warriors back to their homeland."
Long Qianlin was stunned. Qin Huan was openly provoking Ding Xi like this. How could this old general endure it?
"Young Highness, we need to consider this matter at length."
"What? Is Commander Long afraid too?" Qin Huan said indifferently.
"Not afraid, but worried." Long Qianlin said, "We've sent out so many fast ships to search for new land in the Eastern Sea Region, but not a single one has returned. What does this mean? If it weren't for the powerful sea fleets in the distant sea region, I wouldn't be able to provide a reasonable explanation for this matter. "
"Being afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind, how are you going to restore the Yihe Empire?" Qin Huan's expression was extremely unsightly. He was in the pro-war faction. Being the young highness of a mere Dragon-shaped Island obviously couldn't be compared to being the young highness of the Lingdong.
"Are we going to fight or not?" Marquis Man Ning narrowed his eyes. "I think it's better to let the Commander decide!"
Qin Yi sighed helplessly and waved his hand. "Forget it … Since the two marshals have no intention to fight, let's just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Hopefully, QianFeng can consume more of the empire's military power."
Ding Xi and Long Qianlin glanced at each other in silence. They looked at the map in front of them with ashen faces.
…
Three days later.
The Devil Race retreated step by step. More than half of the Heavenly Gorge was already under the control of the Longdan Army Camp.
Lin Muyu left Tang Xiaoxi and Ouyang Yan to guard the Longdan Army Camp. She had to go to the Eastern Sea Region to take a look. The existence of the Celestial Pole Continent was like a nightmare tormenting him. The Shattered Cauldron Realm hadn't been unified yet, and a new powerful enemy had appeared out of nowhere. He secretly lamented his bitter fate. He originally thought that he would be able to return with beauties after fighting for ten years in the Shattered Cauldron Realm. Now, it seemed that he would have to fight for another ten years. Moreover, the outcome was unpredictable. The unknown enemy was really too powerful!
"Whoosh!"
After flying non-stop for nearly a day, Lin Muyu flew like a sharp arrow with the power to split the waves. She sped across the sea surface. After a careful calculation, she had flown for about two thousand kilometers. She could already see ships in the distance. Furthermore, the fluttering flags were completely different from those of the Shattered Cauldron Realm.
"Whoosh!"
With a sway of her body, she soared into the sky and hid among the lingering clouds.
Overlooking the sea, a fleet came into view. It was a fleet consisting of at least fifty warships. The leading warship was nearly two hundred meters long. Furthermore, it was a fortress ship, and the number of soldiers it carried was definitely not small. Furthermore, there was a huge creature on the deck of the fortress ship. It was a huge lizard with wings and red scales all over its body.
Lin Muyu's heart sank. A word was on the verge of coming out of her mouth — Western Dragon?
What kind of existence was this Celestial Pole Continent?
The flag fluttered in the sea breeze. It was a war flag with red clouds on it. Lin Muyu didn't know which empire it belonged to. She knew almost nothing about this place.
She didn't care about that anymore. She had to understand this place first. Lin Muyu's heart was as clear as a mirror. The people of the Shattered Cauldron Realm didn't know about the existence of the Celestial Pole Continent, and the people of the Celestial Pole Continent definitely didn't know about the existence of the Shattered Cauldron Realm. Whoever understood the opponent first would have a greater advantage.
…
At night, in a tavern in a small city near the sea in the Celestial Pole Continent, a blue-clothed dancer swayed her enchanting body and looked at the customers in the tavern in a licentious manner. She sang an unbearable song, and customers would throw copper coins or even silver coins onto the stage from time to time. There were even bold customers who walked up to her and struck up a conversation. "How much can I pay for you to appear on my bed tonight?"
The dancer smiled and didn't say anything.
In an inconspicuous corner of the tavern, a young man dressed in a dark blue robe sat there quietly. He held a huge bamboo cup and drank the malt wine inside. To be honest, the wine in the Celestial Pole Continent was far inferior to that of the empire.
The tavern was the place where one could understand a plane the best.
Lin Muyu had been here for half a day and had a slight understanding of this place. This was just a small city in the Tianji Empire. The flags of those warships she saw during the day were the flags of the Tianji Empire. The emperor of the Tianji Empire was called Beiming Yuan, so this empire belonged to the Beiming Clan. The Tianji Empire was very powerful. At least, that was what their people thought.
"I'm the man who's going to become the Sacred Martial God!"
A young and tender voice came from afar.
Lin Muyu raised her head and saw a young and tender face. It was a young man who was about 17 or 18 years old, but he had an unruly look on his face.
"Sacred Martial God? With just you? "
A scorching slap landed on the young man's face. A person who looked like a mercenary stepped on the young man and pressed him down hard a few times. He said, "In the past tens of thousands of years, there have only been five Sacred Martial Gods in the empire. Who do you think you are? You want to become a Sacred Martial God? Wipe my boots clean first, you good-for-nothing who has high expectations but low ability! "
Bullying was the same in every plane.
Lin Muyu didn't meddle in other people's business and continued to drink. At the same time, she learned some things about the cultivation world in the Celestial Pole Continent from the mercenaries' conversations. The classification of strength in the Celestial Pole Continent was very clear. The strongest person was called the Sacred Martial God, who was at least at the Divine Emperor Realm. There were more than two Sacred Martial Gods in the whole continent, which was very terrifying. Next were the Sacred Martial Kings and Sacred Martial Venerables, who had the strength of Divine Kings and Divine Venerables. Then came the Sacred Martial Warriors. The Sacred Martial Warriors were experts with the cultivation of the Sacred Region. They were only legends in small towns like this. Many people had never even seen the legendary Sacred Martial Warriors.
The Tianji Empire had a total of five Sacred Martial Gods, 11 Sacred Martial Kings, 112 Sacred Martial Venerables, and more than 2,000 Sacred Martial Warriors. Their strength was not ordinary and terrifying.
The more Lin Muyu heard, the colder she felt. Did the Shattered Cauldron Realm really want to go to war with such a strong enemy?
