Lu An really stayed in Yao's Sea of Consciousness for a long time, and only left after coaxing Yao to sleep. After Yao's Divine Sense Origin awoke, her body would wake up as well.
Lu An opened his eyes, and slowly sat up from the bed, not disturbing Yao's rest. Beauty Yang was waiting for Lu An to wake up as well. The two of them left the house together, and walked to the grass patch outside.
In reality, Lu An needed to rest as well, but he did not need to sleep, as long as he did not cultivate, it would be fine. The two of them walked to the wooden table and sat down. Lu An's brows were solemn, as he thought about his attempt earlier.
Lu An was completely clueless about the situation that occurred during his attempt. No matter if it was the cliff, the palm, or the faintly discernible red glow in the darkness of the abyss, he simply did not know what they were.
Lu An naturally would not hide such things from his wife. He told Beauty Yang everything that happened during the process. When Beauty Yang heard Lu An's description, she finally knew that such an inconceivable thing had actually happened, and only then did she know how dangerous it was back then. Even though Lu An And Yao was still alright now, she still felt a lingering fear in her heart.
Following that, Beauty Yang pondered for a moment, and said. "When Little Sister Yao was connected to your Divine Sense, I remember that the surrounding red glow had … changed."
Changed?
Lu An was startled, as he looked at his wife and hurriedly asked. "What change?"
"I can't explain it clearly either …" Beauty Yang tried her best to recall, but could only lightly shake her head. "The situation back then was tense, so I did not pay much attention. However, I remember that before the red glow dispersed, there was a tendency to gather into a certain shape, and it was no longer as messy as before. "
"…"
Lu An's brows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes were solemn. He naturally believed in Beauty Yang's judgment. The power that could materialize was undoubtedly very powerful, but just what kind of shape could the red glow form? Even Lu An was very curious and doubtful!
However, no matter what, Lu An could no longer attempt to open the restrictions of the Demon Gods Realm like before. He was able to escape completely due to luck. If not for Yao, he would definitely have completely sunk into oblivion. He could no longer harm others and himself. Originally, he wanted to cultivate the Realm of the Demon Gods, but now he could only put it aside for a while.
Time trickled by, and it was finally evening. Yao woke up from her slumber. Although Lu An and Beauty Yang were outside the house, they immediately sensed Yao's condition and returned to the house.
Although Yao's complexion was still a little pale, it was already much better than before. Yao's beautiful eyes once again regained their radiance. Like the water of a celestial pond, it made people feel incomparably warm and comfortable.
Lu An's injuries were much smaller than Yao's. Now, he had already recovered more than eighty percent and was basically fine. In the following four days, Lu An didn't leave the Immortal Island. He stayed by Yao's side and took care of her until she completely recovered.
The women of the clan would also come to visit Yao every day, and after Yao recovered, she did not waste any time either. Right now, it was a time where they had to fight every day, and there was only a little more than a month left before the world would fall into chaos next year. Right now, the Ice Fire Union was at its busiest. Everyone in the clan became very busy, including Lu An.
Lu An did not carry out any more missions. He was worried that he would be trapped in a mission or be seriously injured, resulting in him being unable to participate in next year's great event. Without a doubt, next year's great war was the most important. Everything else had to make way for it.

Nine days later, in the Four Southern Seas, Ice Fire Island.
In the Assembly Hall, not only were all the members of the clan present, but all the core members of the Ice Fire Union were also present. This meeting was called by Liu Yi. Lu An sat at the head of the table, and she sat on the right side of Lu An. Her expression was serious, making the atmosphere of the entire meeting very serious.
After everyone was present, the door of the Assembly Hall was closed. Lu An looked at Liu Yi, and Liu Yi also looked at Lu An. After nodding slightly, she stood up alone and looked at everyone.
There were eight people in the clan, and there were twenty people present. All of them were members of the Ice Fire Union who had been recognized by Liu Yi. They were absolutely trustworthy. Liu Yi looked around, took a deep breath and said, "Today is the first day of the twelfth lunar month, the last month of this year. It also means that there is only one month left before the great chaos. That's why I've called for a meeting today. I want to tell you all the important things one month in advance. Everything will be in order on the first day of next year.
We can't mess things up! "Everybody nodded. It was true that the earlier she made the decision, the better it would be for them to have time to prepare. However, they didn't expect that Liu Yi would call this meeting one month in advance.
"First, we need to confirm our goals for this great chaos. They are the early goal, the middle goal, and the final goal." As Liu Yi said this, a light flashed in her hand. She waved her hand. Instantly, a huge map appeared in the open space in the middle of the room. To put the map on the table, Liu Yi had purposely taken the table away so that everybody could see everything clearly.
The map of the Eight Ancient Continents was really big. It wasn't the first time that Lu An had seen it. However, every time he saw it, he was deeply shocked. The Four Southern Seas where they were staying were as big as the Eight Ancient Continents. In fact, the sea area under the control of the Deep Sea Union was about the same as one of the Four Great Empires.
Everybody looked at the map. They found that it wasn't a normal map. Many places were marked with different shapes.
"This is the current distribution of forces in the Eight Ancient Continents." Liu Yi said seriously. "The places marked with black ink are the territories of the thirty-one sects. They are directly or indirectly managed by them. Starting next year, they will use these places as the starting point to expand. However, the places I've marked aren't enough. We can't get more information about the thirty-one sects. We can only test them. "
"The places I've marked with red ink are all the bases of the Ice and Fire Union in the Eight Ancient Continents." Liu Yi said, "These places will be the starting point for us to occupy the continents. We will expand from these places."
Everybody was startled. Each of them had their own responsibilities. Even they didn't know how the Union was doing in the Eight Ancient Continents. They hurried to check the map.
It was hard to find the places marked with red ink in such a big map. However, it was good that the red color was eye-catching. Soon, everybody finished counting. There were twenty places marked with red ink. They didn't expect that there would be so many of them. Also, they didn't expect that Liu Yi had prepared so much!
However, they soon found a problem. These marked places were scattered in different parts of the Eight Ancient Continents. They were very far from each other. Guo Pingxian asked skeptically. "It's like we're trying to disperse our forces and weaken our fighting capacity. Moreover, most of these places aren't rich in resources. Even if we can occupy these places, it's useless to us. We can't gain anything from it! "
Guo Pingxian's words were the same as many people's doubts. They nodded and looked at Liu Yi with questioning eyes.
"You're right." Liu Yi nodded and said, "But it's also because of this that we can try our best to protect our people. With our competence, even if we gather, we can't resist the sects. The best way is to scatter our forces and spread the net. We can attract the experts from different places in the Eight Ancient Continents. "
"It's also our initial goal." Liu Yi looked at everybody and said seriously, "To us, occupying the territories is secondary. The most important thing is to attract the experts. I give you six months to one year to complete this process. After we finish our initial goal, our competence can be compared to the sects. Of course, the premise is that we don't count the Level 9 Heaven Masters. "
"At this time, we will start our middle goal. There are three in total." Liu Yi said seriously. "The first one is to expand our territory. It's the area I've marked with the green ink. It's the territory we need to fight for. The second one is to use war to replace cultivation. It will help our competence grow faster under the pressure of life and death. The third one is to use schemes to provoke the relationship between the sects. We will make them kill each other. We will bide our time and watch the tigers fight. "
"Without a doubt, the final goal is to be able to resist the sects. This includes the Level 9 Heaven Masters." Liu Yi looked at Lu An, Yao, and Beauty Yang and said seriously, "To enter this stage, there must be at least three Level 9 Heaven Masters in the Union Conference. Once there are three of them, we will start to fight for the world. We will try our best to absorb as much power as possible to make our Ice Fire Union stronger! "
Liu Yi took a deep breath and said, "Of course, the ultimate goal of the Ice Fire Union is to fight against the Hachiko clan and win the Promise of Ten Years!"
