"Gao Yuan, immediately arrange for two people to chase after Jin Chen and Bu Ziwen's troops through the Teleportation Formation. Then, send out the talisman that I personally recorded." As he spoke, Ling Dong passed two talismans imprinted with Ling Dong's Divine Soul's aura to Gao Yuan.
Without waiting for Gao Yuan to reply, Ling Dong continued, "Immediately order Mu Tie, the four brothers of the Zhan Family, the Five Elements Battle Team (the thirty mid-stage Star Monarchs who cultivate the Five Elements Aurora Killing Formation), and the others to immediately enter the Myriad Star Palace through the Blood and Soul and await orders.
Also, use the talisman to inform the Long An Star Palace to be on high alert in case of a sneak attack from the Star Luo Divine Palace. "Ling Dong gave several orders in one breath. As for the Ling family's Star Monarchs and Gongsun Zhanyi, who he had taken in previously, Ling Dong had already sent them to guard the Long An Star Palace.
"Yes!" Gao Yuan replied, and his figure immediately disappeared from the Myriad Star Palace. After a few breaths, orders were sent out from the Ling family's castle.
Mountain God Yin Kang, who had been watching from the side, was even more curious. He did not understand how Ling Dong was going to deal with the ten half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods.
After a hundred breaths, Mu Tie, the Zhan brothers, and the Ling family's Five Elements Battle Team, who had received orders from Ling Dong, entered the Myriad Star Palace one after another. At this moment, Ling Dong's Divine Sense moved, and he said to Mountain God Yin Kang, "Old man, now, watch how I deal with those half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods."
With a thought, Ling Dong was about to enter the Myriad Stars House. However, when he entered, Ling Dong's heart skipped a beat. Perhaps those people from the Star Luo Divine Palace were using the fake Zhou Tian Shenjian to monitor him?
If he disappeared into thin air, wouldn't that alert the enemy? It would be bad if the Star Luo Divine Palace was alerted.
With that in mind, Ling Dong took out his Cloudpiercing Boat. "Elder Mi, Elder Bi, the journey is rather long. Let's use the Cloudpiercing Boat." Actually, he could have used the Cloud Piercing Boat at the start. However, the speed of Ling Dong's Cloud Piercing Boat was 20% slower than the speed of the half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox God. Hence, he didn't bring it out.
At this moment, Ling Dong wanted to make things more convenient for him. He also needed to buy some time. The slightly slower Cloud-Piercing Ship was the most suitable for this.
"Alright!" Elder Mi and Elder Bi nodded. Elder Mi glanced at Ling Dong's Cloudpiercing Boat and raised an objection. "Young master Ling, time is tight. Why don't you use this old man's Cloudpiercing Boat?"
What he meant was that Ling Dong's Cloudpiercing Boat wasn't of high quality. It was too slow.
Ling Dong looked at Elder Mi strangely. When the old man was confused, Ling Dong shook his head. "No need. My Cloudpiercing Boat is the most suitable."
Elder Mi and Elder Bi didn't say anything else after seeing Ling Dong's insistence. They boarded Ling Dong's Cloudpiercing Boat and handed it over to Elder Bi. Ling Dong's consciousness moved, and his consciousness poured into the Myriad Star Hall in the Myriad Stars House.
The boundless Divine Sense spilled into the Myriad Star Hall and instantly spread to every corner. The ten half-step Heavenly Cycle Orthodox Gods who were cultivating in the Myriad Star Hall felt their hearts tremble. Then, regardless of whether they were willing or not, the Divine Sense that had already enveloped them suddenly tightened and moved them out of the Myriad Star Hall.
In the next instant, they appeared in an even more spacious hall in the Myriad Stars House called the Imperial Star Hall. This hall was only spacious and empty, but it didn't have much use. It was perfect for doing something today.
"Everyone!" Just as the ten half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods were confused, Ling Dong's soul condensed into a figure that appeared above their heads.
"Young master Ling!" They recognized Ling Dong. When they saw Ling Dong appear, the ten half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods immediately quieted down. However, a few of the more astute ones felt inwardly uncomfortable or uneasy.
When Ling Dong brought them into the secret palace to cultivate, he wanted them to completely let down their guard and give him a heads up. Only then could they be brought into the secret palace.
But now, without any warning, Ling Dong moved them from the secret palace to this spacious hall that they had never seen before. This method really made some of them feel uneasy.
"I've received accurate information that the Star Luo Temple has mobilized nearly twenty half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods to set up an ambush in front of us! As for me, I also want to make use of this opportunity to fight to the death with the Star Luo Divine Palace … "Ling Dong explained the matter simply, but his intention was very clear.
"Young master Ling, isn't this plan too hasty? How many troops does the Star Luo Temple have? What's the location of the ambush? Is there a problem with the information? Is this a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain? "Elder Tian, who had previously joined Ling Dong, questioned.
Ling Dong stared coldly at Elder Tian. "I'm not here to discuss with you. I'm only here to inform you to prepare for the battle. It's time for you to contribute."
After a pause, Ling Dong continued, "Elder Tian, I forgot to tell you that the Star Luo Temple's target this time is the Tian Family of Gan Province to lure us out. We're currently on our way to the Tian Family of Gan Province."
Elder Tian's somewhat ugly expression instantly turned into one of worry. However, he was wise enough not to ask any more questions. He only said, "Since Young master Ling wants us to participate in the battle, then we'll participate in the battle. Does anyone have any objections?"
Elder Tian's matter was related to his own family. Naturally, the first to take the lead was Fu and Ling Dong. However, the others were not as enthusiastic as Elder Tian. After pondering for a while, some of them nodded while some remained silent. However, no one dared to refuse.
Ling Dong was dissatisfied when he saw the passive expressions of these half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods. Just as Ling Dong had expected, a Spiritual Oath wasn't enough to restrain these crafty half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods.
If it had been the first batch of half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods, Wu Zhengyang, Bu Ziwen, and the others, who had heard Ling Dong's command, they wouldn't have dared to be so passive!
"It's a battle to the death!"
Ling Dong emphasized with a gloomy expression.
"We have already made a Spiritual Oath. We will fight to the death!" Although Elder Tian's voice sounded rather dry, the expressions of the other half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods were a lot more complicated.
After Elder Tian finished speaking, out of consideration for Ling Dong's reputation, they slowly nodded their heads in unison.
Seeing that everyone had nodded, Elder Tian, who was really anxious because this matter concerned his family, urged, "Young Master Ling, if there is no problem, will you send us to the battle now?"
Just as Ling Dong was thinking of using this as an excuse to speak, Elder Tian gave Ling Dong one.
"There is no problem with all of you, but there is a problem with me!" While everyone was still in shock, Ling Dong spoke again. "According to the news from the Star Luo Palace, the Star Luo Palace knows all about the movements of the martial artists on our side. They even know that all of you have entered my Secret Palace to cultivate in seclusion!
"According to accurate information, one of the ten of you is a spy from the Star Luo Palace! What do you think we should do? How can we let you go to the battle without worry? If someone suddenly stabs us in the back, won't we lose everything? "Ling Dong scolded.
"There is a spy?"
"That's impossible, right?" Everyone started discussing. Many of the half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods began to scan the martial artists other than themselves, as if they wanted to find the spy with their naked eyes. However, this was simply impossible. If the spy could really find them with their naked eyes, would Ling Dong need to spend so much effort?
While everyone was thinking, Elder Tian spoke again. "Young Master Ling, do you have any information to confirm who the spy is? Time is of the essence, you can't give up eating for fear of choking. "Elder Tian was completely anxious for his family.
"I can only confirm that one or a few of you are spies sent by the Star Luo Palace. However, I have no way of knowing who it is!"
Ling Dong's words made some people, especially Elder Tian, who was anxious for his family's safety, extremely disappointed. However, Ling Dong changed his tone and said, "However, I already have a solution to this problem!"
"Oh, what solution, Young Master Ling, quickly tell us!"
Ling Dong smiled coldly. His expression suddenly became like a ferocious beast that bared its fangs. "It's very simple. All of you let go of your souls and let me plant the Soul Slaying Nail! I believe all of you have already heard of the power of my Soul Slaying Nail. If anyone dares to make a move, I will immediately detonate the Soul Slaying Nail. This way, we won't have the possibility of being stabbed in the back by the spy … "
"No, isn't this a disguised form of enslavement?"
"If you want to condemn someone, you can always find a reason to do so."
"Young Master Ling, do you think we are three-year-old children?"
Everyone was extremely angry. Even Elder Tian fell into deep thought. However, Ling Dong coldly shouted, "You only have two choices. Agree and become my comrade! Or, disagree and be killed as a spy! "
"Hmph, Young Master Ling, you sure talk big. You killed ten of our half-step Zhou Tian Orthodox Gods? Even if we were besieged by enemies twice our number, you would still have to pay a considerable price to kill us! "Elder Ding, who had come with Elder Tian, jumped out with a face full of dissatisfaction.
"I talk big?" Ling Dong's lips curled into an evil smile. "In this place, killing all of you is as easy as flipping my hand!"
"Little Four!"
With a light shout, Vermillion Bird Little Four's figure immediately appeared at the top of the hall. His cold and flickering eyes stared fixedly at Elder Ding, and a light beam immediately shot towards Elder Ding.
Seeing the Vermillion Bird's attack, Elder Ding moved to counterattack. However, the moment he was about to counterattack, he suddenly felt his body become sluggish. It was as if his entire body had sunk into an endless quagmire and was completely bound, unable to move at all.
"Sizzle!"
The light beam shot by Vermillion Bird Little Four accurately hit Elder Ding's chest. The smell of burning flesh immediately spread out. Almost at the same time, Elder Ding was already howling madly. "Everyone, why aren't you doing anything? Are you willing to be slaves? By doing this, we aren't violating the Soul Oath. We just don't want to be slaves. "
Elder Ding's extremely provocative words caused the expressions of several half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods to turn fierce. Just as they were about to attack, almost at the same time, they encountered the exact same treatment as Elder Ding. They were completely unable to move, and even the power of their Souls was suppressed to the extreme.
The expressions of the half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods instantly changed. Ling Dong's voice also rang out. "Humph, this is my territory, and I am the heavens! You can choose whether you want to or not, life or death. Don't say that I didn't give you a chance! "
Seeing the miserable expressions of the half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods, Ling Dong's expression was somewhat disdainful. Just by swearing a Soul Oath, they wanted to obtain the incomparably precious God Sealing Stone? And they wanted to cultivate as they wished in the Myriad Star Palace, a cultivation treasure ground. Did they really think that he, Ling Dong, was a fool?
