Countless people in the Holy Zhi Palace looked up at the departing figure in the void. The Nine States Supervising Inspector was a foreign name to most people. The Barren State and the Nine States had very little contact, and they were almost forgotten in the past. It was not until Ye Futian left the Barren State that he once again entered the sights of the Nine States.
But they also understood that the Nine States Supervising Inspector was Emperor Xia's man, the emperor of the Nine States.
The battle of holy lands needed Emperor Xia's permission and rules before it could begin.
Emperor Xia allowed the two holy lands to go to war, but to prevent those of a higher plane from slaughtering those of a lower plane, he set the rules. As for not causing trouble to those of a higher plane, it was an unspoken rule in the world of cultivation.
Ye Futian stood above the Holy Sage Pavilion and looked at the disappearing figure with a solemn expression.
The Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty was once the ruler of the Eastern State. It had deep roots and ruled endless territories.
The Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty was different from the Holy Zhi Palace. The Holy Zhi Palace was more inclined to impart knowledge and was a place of enlightenment and cultivation. The Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, on the other hand, was a dynastic force and had stricter control over the forces within its territory.
For example, although Ye Futian was the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace, he was unable to command the top forces of the Barren State to fight for him. However, the Great Zhou Sacred King could. With just a word, he could command all the forces in the territory ruled by the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty to gather an incredibly terrifying army.
In addition, the Barren State had been weak for many years. Although its performance in the Nine State Forum was dazzling, in terms of overall strength, it was obviously inferior to the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, no matter which level.
The start of the Sacred War meant that the Barren State was truly facing a life-and-death situation.
Moreover, when the Sacred War began, as long as it was within the rules, any means could be used, such as assassination and interception.
This also meant that from the moment the Supervising Inspector announced, the people of the Holy Zhi Palace could be attacked at any time outside.
Ye Futian looked down and said loudly, "From now on, the Holy Zhi Palace will enter a state of war. All disciples cultivating in the Holy Zhi Palace are not allowed to go out without orders."
As his voice spread out, everyone could feel the solemnity of the atmosphere.
During this time, almost one-third of the Holy Zhi Palace's disciples had left. After all, for many people, they only cultivated in the Holy Zhi Palace and did not have deep feelings for it. Since Ye Futian had given them the chance to choose, some naturally chose to leave.
Among those who left, most of them were cultivators below the Sage Plane. Their wills were not strong, and they came to the Holy Zhi Palace in search of a higher plane, unwilling to fight to the death for the Holy Zhi Palace.
"Other than that, the Holy Zhi Palace has also set up Sage Hall disciples. As the name suggests, they are the core disciples of the Holy Zhi Palace. In this Sacred War, those who have made contributions will be promoted to Sage Hall disciples and can enter the Sage Hall to cultivate." Ye Futian continued. Seeing the solemn expressions of the disciples below, his expression sharpened and he continued.
"I led the disciples of the Holy Zhi Palace to participate in the Nine State Forum and was looked down upon by the other holy lands. However, the disciples of the Holy Zhi Palace had the most dazzling performance in the Nine State Forum. Therefore, although this Sacred War is a crisis, it will also be a baptism. If the Holy Zhi Palace can stand tall in the Sacred War, from then on, the Holy Zhi Palace will rise in the Nine States, and no one will be able to stop it. All disciples who participate in this Sacred War, in the future, you will follow me, and the Nine States will tremble with a single sword."
Hearing Ye Futian's words, there was a faint flow of blood in many people's hearts. Ye Futian had already done what they thought was impossible in the past. The group of people who followed Ye Futian, Yu Sheng, Ye Wuchen, Xu Que, and the others, all shone the brightest on the stage of the Nine State Forum.
They also hoped that one day they could step onto the stage of the Nine States.
"Send the news to the various forces." Ye Futian looked at the people around him and said. Sage Douzhan and the others nodded, knowing Ye Futian's intentions. Although he did not say it explicitly, he was already asking for help from the various forces of the Barren State.
With the power of the Holy Zhi Palace alone, they would not be able to stop the army of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty. The cultivators of the Holy Zhi Palace were still too few.
However, this was a battle of life and death, and Ye Futian could not force the forces of the Barren State. He could only let them choose for themselves. Even if they were unwilling to participate in the war, Ye Futian would not blame them.
"Holy Elder, Palace Lord Yang, let us study a few battle matrices for group battles." Ye Futian looked at the Village Chief and Yang Xiao. If there was a war between armies, battle matrices would be very important, as it could greatly increase their combat power.
"Yes." The two nodded. In the Sacred War, battle matrices were inevitable, and there needed to be many kinds of battle matrices to adapt to different situations.
"Alright, everyone prepare for the war," Ye Futian said. Everyone left, and the Holy Zhi Palace became completely busy.
Ye Futian looked into the void. At this moment, he could faintly understand Liu Chan's radicalism back then. The Barren State was weak, and if it did not rise, once faced with such a situation, it would be a disaster.
…
At the same time that the Nine States Supervising Envoy descended upon the Holy Zhi Palace, there were also Supervising Envoys descending upon the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty to announce the news of the Sacred War. The Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty had already summoned the forces of the Endless Territories to gather in the Holy Capital of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty.
The Great Zhou Sacred King's personality was extremely domineering and sharp. With his personality, there was no way he would play with Ye Futian slowly. Obviously, he did not intend to fight with the Holy Zhi Palace for a long time. Instead, he wanted to finish it all in one go, directly leading the army to the Barren State and razing the Holy Zhi Palace to the ground in one fell swoop.
Ye Futian would pay for what he had done.
All the holy lands of the Nine States paid close attention to this Sacred War. After the news spread, some forces of the Nine States had already begun to head to the Barren State. They knew that the first battle of this Sacred War would be fought in the Barren State's Holy Zhi Palace, and the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty's army would directly descend. Who was the Great Zhou Sacred King? That day, Ye Futian had killed his people in front of him. This was a slap in the face, and he would not allow Ye Futian to live.
No matter how outstanding Ye Futian was, whether or not he had the potential to become a Saint, once he was killed, he was nothing.
It was said that he had entered the Sage Plane not long ago, and was at the lowest level of the Sage Plane. Under such circumstances, Ye Futian was not a threat at all in the battle of the Sage Plane, and even needed protection.
The people of Xihua Sacred Mountain and Zhisheng Cliffs were the first to arrive in the Barren State.
At this time, in the Barren State's Zhongzhou City, a group of cultivators from Zhisheng Cliffs had already arrived in a restaurant. Kong Yao came personally and drank in the restaurant.
Everything that had happened in the Nine State Forum and the Nether Sword Mound had made Zhisheng Cliffs feel the threat of the Barren State, but before they could do anything, the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty had initiated the Sacred War, which saved Zhisheng Cliffs a lot of trouble.
Now, all they needed to do was wait and see, and silently watch the battle erupt.
The Nine States had not had a Sacred War for a long time, and they hoped that this time, it would not disappoint.
At the same time, the major forces of the Barren State also received the news.
At this time, in the Armorer Pavilion of the City Lord's Office in Alchemy City.
You Chi was personally crafting. He was shirtless, and the muscles on his body had been branded red by the flames.
Not only him, but many of the top cultivators of the City Lord's Office were crafting with him.
At this time, a middle-aged figure walked over and said, "Father, why do you have to do this? Just leave it to the uncles."
"In the Way of Armorer, if I claim to be second in the Barren State, no one would dare claim to be first. To craft the best Sage ritual implements as quickly as possible, of course, I have to do it myself," You Chi said. The middle-aged man beside him was his eldest son, You Mu.
"Father, are you preparing to participate in this Sacred War?" You Mu asked.
"Your sister and that b * stard Xue Ye are still in the Holy Zhi Palace. How can I watch?" You Chi glared at him. As he said this, he stopped what he was doing and said, "You have completed the last step of the crafting process."
As he said this, he turned around and left. He casually put on a shirt that was soaked in sweat and walked out of the Armorer Pavilion.
"Order people to collect the best ritual implements in Alchemy City," You Chi said to You Mu. You Mu's eyes flashed, and then he said, "It seems that father is preparing to mobilize all the forces. What if we lose this Sacred War?"
"With Alchemy City's current status, even if the Holy Zhi Palace is suppressed and the Barren State forces are replaced, Alchemy City can still stand tall," You Chi said confidently. Because they were proficient in the Way of Armorer, there was no force that would not welcome a powerful armorer. "However, isn't this also being complacent?
After cultivating for a certain amount of time, they may lack the passion of young people. Look at many of the old guys in the Barren State. Aren't they just sitting around waiting for death? They don't even dare to participate in the Battle of Saints. Look at Ye Futian. He led the Barren State's disciples and won first place in the Nine State Forum. Do you understand what this means? "You Chi looked at You Mu and said.
"Ye Futian is indeed a genius. If he is given time, he will definitely be able to step onto the Divine Path," You Mu said.
"A junior who dares to stand in front of a Saint and kill the Great Zhou Sacred King's people in front of him, it is inevitable that he will step onto the Divine Path. Not only him, but Yu Sheng, and even Ye Wuchen and the others all have a chance," You Chi said indifferently. "As the saying goes, when things reach an extreme, they move in the opposite direction. The Barren State has not had a Saint for many years. Now, it is finally ushering in a new generation. This will be a great era. If we can pass this hurdle, the future of the Barren State will be unimaginable."
"Ye Futian was jointly pushed by the Barren State to become the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace. In that case, we will protect him for a while longer," You Chi continued. "Also, go and inform the people of Alchemy City. Tell them to gather the top figures of each plane in their families."
"Father." You Mu was stunned. Was he going to bring all the families of Alchemy City to participate in the war?
"What if they don't agree?" Their opponent this time was the Holy Zhi Palace. It was a Sacred War.
"I, the City Lord, am going to participate in the war personally. Do they want to stay out of it? I will destroy them first, "You Chi said indifferently. "Send people to the Fire Emperor Palace and the Goddess Pavilion as well. I can't control the forces in the other regions of the Barren State, but I will make the decisions in the southwest region."
"Alright." You Mu nodded. It seemed that his father was serious this time.
At the same time, in the eastern region of the Barren State, the Divine Sky City, the Top Three Schools had long been unified and were under Chen Yuan's control.
When the news of the Sacred War came, Chen Yuan also gathered the cultivators of the Top Three Schools and the families of Divine Sky City. He told them to gather the cultivators of each plane and prepare to go to the Holy Zhi Palace to participate in the war.
The current leader of the Barren State was the Son from his Starry School!
