Nakagawa Domain, Imperial Capital.
As the Millennium Celebration drew closer, more and more cultivators arrived at the Imperial Capital. Unfortunately, most of them were not qualified to enter the Imperial Capital to watch the celebration. They could only find a place to set up camp outside the Imperial Capital.
As a result, within a radius of nearly a hundred miles around the Imperial Capital, as long as there was a place to set up camp, it was basically occupied by the major forces.
They had their own sects, but their ranks were not high enough to receive an invitation from the Imperial Family to enter the Imperial Capital. They could only show off their strength outside.
From the outside to the inside, the higher the cultivation level of the cultivator, the closer they could stay to the Imperial Capital. The same was true for the more powerful forces.
This caused the cultivators and forces that were not very powerful to become highly sought after after the experts and powerhouses entered the Imperial Capital. Some of the lower-level forces tried to curry favor with them.
"I heard that the Battle Arena is going to show us the situation inside the Imperial Capital in the form of an illusion. This is really a big deal!" a cultivator said excitedly.
"This is nothing. I've seen it once before. It's even bigger than this time!" a person next to him said disdainfully.
"You mean the time when Lin An and Blue Dragon fought?" someone asked.
The most recent live broadcast of the Battle Arena was the battle between Hayashikawa and Lin An. That time, it alarmed more than half of the cultivators in the Cultivation World. After all, there were many gimmicks at that time, such as the battle between brothers, the battle for the number one of the younger generation, the rupture between the Akatsuki and Breaking Dawn, and so on. There were so many highlights. In addition, these two forces were usually very low-key and mysterious. One could imagine how popular it was when they fought in front of the public.
"It's a pity that they didn't decide the winner in the end. This is really a pity. However, I still think Lin An is stronger. His Eye of Creation was simply amazing. He even directly killed his own Great Vehicle Stage cultivator. He's so awesome."
"Nonsense. I still think Blue Dragon is stronger. He was only at the Body Integration Stage at that time, but he could already fight Lin An, who was at the Great Vehicle Stage. If he grows up, his strength will definitely surpass Lin An."
"Tsk, he's already been killed by the royal family. What else is there to say? If he's really that awesome, he should come out and destroy the royal family!"
"That's right. He's already a dead man. What else is there to say? Although that Blue Dragon has some strength, he showed off his abilities. It's only a matter of time before he's killed."
…
Where there were people, there would be Jianghu, not to mention that all the famous cultivators in the cultivation world had gathered together. All kinds of guesses and arguments would not stop from the beginning.
However, most people did not participate in this debate, especially those who stood at a higher position, such as those in the Imperial City.
They had already sensed that something was wrong with this millennium celebration.
This was the first time that a few Level 1 cultivator forces had directly lived together. Moreover, they had openly ignored the imperial family's warning.
As for what this meant, many people had already sniffed out the scent.
Although Dayin Tower was a first-class cultivation organization and a neutral organization that monopolized the trade of information on the mainland, they had never taken a side.
However, this time, they still did something that was beyond everyone's expectations.
They rejected the residence arranged by the imperial family and lived in the private residence of a Great Vehicle Stage elder of Dayin Tower. This private residence was very close to the imperial palace, but at the same time, it was also very close to the Three Pure Ones' residence.
As a result, although Dayin Tower did not make a clear statement, they already had a certain inclination. After all, when they decided to reject the residence provided by the imperial family, it was already equivalent to rejecting the imperial family's good intentions.
Of course, Dayin Tower was still relatively reserved. At least, they did not directly live in the Three Pure Ones' residence like the other Level 1 cultivator forces. However, it could already be seen that they were close to each other.
In fact, for an organization like Dayin Tower, they really needed to maintain a neutral position so that they could benefit from both sides. They were most happy to see both sides selling information.
However, the problem was that things had developed to this point. The situation of the entire mainland had become turbulent. As a Level 1 cultivator force, Dayin Tower could not maintain absolute neutrality in this turmoil. Both sides would force them to take a stand. Therefore, they had no choice. Even if they seemed to be neutral now, when the critical moment came, both sides would put pressure on them. After all, no one wanted to see the sandpiper and the clam fight, and the fisherman would benefit from it.
There was only one day left before the millennium celebration.
In the Three Pure Ones' residence, a group of Tribulation Stage elders from the various Level 1 cultivator forces gathered together, looking somewhat anxious.
In one day, they would collide with the Nakagawa Empire. Although they knew that Hayashikawa's trump card was very powerful, when it came to the end, everyone was more or less uneasy.
After all, this was a deal that involved the loss of their entire sect. Once something went wrong, they would be consigned to eternal damnation.
Originally, they thought that before the millennium celebration, Hayashikawa and the Akatsuki organization would send someone over to inform them. When the time came, they could also discuss what to do. However, the millennium celebration was about to begin, and whether it was Hayashikawa himself or the Akatsuki organization, there was no movement at all. This really made these elders a little anxious, fearing that something would go wrong at that time.
"Lin An, Mu Li, do you two little friends know the specific arrangements of the Akatsuki organization?" Lin Xuanzhi of the Taiqing Sect asked.
He really couldn't hold it in anymore and wanted to fish out some information. He wasn't like the Yuqing Sect's Shangguan Hong, who had already identified Hayashikawa and was willing to bet all his treasures on Hayashikawa. He still had some thoughts of his own.
"Senior Lin Xuanzhi, I really don't know what arrangements my younger brother has made, but don't worry, my younger brother has always been steady in his work. He will definitely live up to everyone's expectations." Mu Li said seriously.
Lin Xuanzhi and the others nodded, but the worry between their eyebrows became even stronger.
In the end, the Nakagawa Empire had been powerful for too long. Even if they had prepared so many backup plans, they were still not very relieved. More importantly, Hayashikawa, the initiator, still hadn't told them what trump cards he had, which made many people feel very uncertain.
Just as everyone was silent and thinking about something, the space in the center of the hall shattered like a mirror. Then, a figure stepped out and cupped his hands to the crowd.
"My family's Hokage invites everyone to the ninja world for a chat!"
