Chapter 198: The Northern Border Great Wall!
At these words.
The Thunder Wolf Clan Chief’s expression shifted instantly.
Then it collapsed again.
“Honored One, please don’t joke. How could my Thunderwolf Clan possibly harbor ill intentions toward Lord Xuan Li?”
“Moreover, Lord Xuan Li not only has no grudge with our clan, but our relationship is quite good.”
As the Thunder Wolf Clan Chief spoke, he lowered his head.
Hearing this, Ao Ye also knew he had overthought things.
But letting him leave was impossible.
With the Xuanji Clan gone, the Demon Race had already lost a major ally.
If the Thunderwolf Clan were also allowed to return, would that not make things even worse?
Ao Ye pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke.
“How about this. Xuan Li left not long ago.”
“I will send word to it, have it investigate your clan’s situation along the way.”
“You just stay here with peace of mind.”
Ao Ye spoke calmly.
The Thunder Wolf Clan Chief, hearing this, was unwilling.
But there was nothing he could do about it.
He could only cup his hands in agreement.
After the Thunder Wolf Clan Chief left.
Ao Ye stood alone in the great tent, brows tightly furrowed.
Who exactly is running rampant in the Demon Domain?
Could there really be some hidden great demon?
Ao Ye thought for a long time but found no clues.
He could only shake his head.
He focused his attention on the technique map of the Prison Dragon Realm.
“The Northern Region is above, the Western Region is to the left.”
“Now our clan happens to cut across the Central Pole Province of the Central Region. As long as the great army marches north to these two regions.”
“With the vitality of these two regions, a hundred years later the Demon Race’s population can double!”
“The Human Race is doomed to fall!”
A resolute light burst from Ao Ye’s eyes.
He had made up his mind.
And soon, as the Demon Race shifted their focus.
In the southern border of the Central Pole Province, the Human Race’s Great Vehicle cultivators finally felt the pressure sharply decrease.
Within the great tent of the Sect Management Council.
Council Lord Li Tianxuan sat in the seat of honor, wearing a white robe, his expression solemn.
Below him stood more than a dozen of the Human Race’s top Supreme cultivators.
“Council Lord, the Demon Race has not attacked again recently.”
“However, according to reports from the Northern Region sects, Demon Race figures have been spotted.”
“It is likely the Demon Race has gone north.”
Council Elder Chen Zhong’s face was full of seriousness.
Li Tianxuan nodded, then fell silent.
The atmosphere in the great hall instantly sank into quiet.
None of the Supreme cultivators present were fools.
They naturally saw the Demon Race’s intent immediately.
But they had no way to stop it.
Such an open and aboveboard stratagem, yet they simply could not find any means to break it.
After all, the Human Race was already struggling just to defend.
If they also tried to intercept the Demon Race’s march, they would likely be annihilated in an instant.
“Have the sects of the Northern Region… begin teleporting.”
In the end, it was Li Tianxuan who broke the silence.
“Those willing to leave, teleport to the Southern Region.”
“Those unwilling to leave, send out a notice and let each fend for themselves.”
Li Tianxuan’s voice was somewhat hoarse.
Clearly, his mind and spirit were utterly exhausted.
Ever since the war between the two races began.
This man, the Human Race’s publicly acknowledged number one fighting force.
Had been gravely injured.
Now he still had to worry about the Human Race across the Five Domains. How could he not be tired?
But for the foundation of the Human Race, he had no choice but to step forward.
At this thought, Li Tianxuan forced himself to muster his spirits and slowly stood up.
“Send the order down. Command the Great Vehicle sects of the Human Race’s Five Domains to all teleport to the Southern Region.”
“Taking advantage of the Demon Race shifting their focus, the Human Race should build a city in the southern border of the Central Pole Province to defend against the enemy!”
“Build a city?”
“How large a city would that have to be?”
Chen Zhong could not help but interject.
Hearing this, Li Tianxuan’s eyes narrowed.
“Though our Human Race is weak, if we fight to the death, there is still a chance.”
“If we can build a Dharma Artifact Spirit City spanning the entire Central Pole Province, it will surely stop the Demon Race from marching south!”
“Afterward, we can take things slowly!”
“Spanning the entire Central Pole Province!”
“How… how could that possibly be!”
It was not just Chen Zhong.
The many Supreme cultivators in the tent were all shaken by Li Tianxuan’s idea.
Even with the strength of all the Great Vehicle sects in the world, such a thing could not be done in a short time.
“Council Lord!”
“I have a plan that might make this possible!”
From the crowd, a Supreme cultivator in black suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, everyone immediately looked over.
They saw it was the Grand Elder of the Sword South Sect, a Great Vehicle sect of South Sword Prefecture — Supreme Star Sword.
One by one, they pricked up their ears.
“To build such a great city, relying on the Great Vehicle sects alone will likely not be enough.”
“I think we should call upon all cultivators in the world to build this city together!”
“Even mortal martial artists can come contribute their strength!”
“All who come, come to protect their homes!”
“This will surely inspire all of the Human Race!”
Supreme Star Sword spoke with force and conviction.
Hearing this, everyone nodded.
“Council Lord, in my view, this plan is feasible!”
“If this plan succeeds, our Human Race may have a thread of survival!”
“We might even have hope of reclaiming the Central Pole Province in the future!”
Hearing this, a flash of brilliance also passed through Li Tianxuan’s eyes.
“Not bad. In that case, let it be done!”
“Then Council Lord, may I ask what this city will be called?”
“It will be called… the Northern Region Great Wall!”
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
Everyone responded in unison.
The Northern Region Great Wall.
This was the city of the Human Race’s lifeline!
If it were built, it would surely win the Human Race a chance at survival.
But if it could not be built…
The Human Race’s doomsday would arrive.
Thinking of this, Li Tianxuan still felt they needed another safeguard.
“Have we contacted the Senior of the Nine Origin Palace?”
“When can we reclaim our Prison Dragon Realm’s ownership?”
Li Tianxuan looked toward Chen Zhong.
What he got was Chen Zhong shaking his head with a darkened expression.
“Ever since we inexplicably invited the Senior of the Nine Origin Palace down to this realm, there has been no reply since.”
Li Tianxuan was slightly stunned.
Several decades ago, a great star suddenly descended outside the Prison Dragon Realm.
It nearly destroyed the world.
In desperation, he had ordered people to invite the Senior of the Upper Realm’s Nine Origin Palace.
But who could have known that the moment the visitor descended, the great star mysteriously vanished from the sky.
Everything was too bizarre.
And because of this, the already complicated situation of the Prison Dragon Realm became even more difficult.
The Human Race of this realm could no longer have a say within the Upper Realm’s Nine Origin Palace.
“Forget it. Given that, better to save ourselves than rely on others.”
“I hope all of you will work together.”
Li Tianxuan sighed and cupped his hands toward everyone.
“Rest assured, Council Lord.”
“We will not fail our mission!”
“Good. The fortune of our Human Race rests on all of you!”
After saying this, Li Tianxuan left with the Supreme cultivators under his command.
Soon after, within the Five Domains.
Across the sect grounds of many Great Vehicle sects, cross-domain teleportation arrays lit up one after another.
The Great Vehicle sects willing to abandon their homes and businesses did not leave a single disciple behind.
They even relocated all the mortals within their territories to the Southern Region.
But those sects unwilling to move, or confident they could escape the Demon Race’s maw, still chose to remain on this land.
Li Tianxuan did not mistreat them either.
He not only explained the Demon Race’s general offensive, but also noted the level of danger.
His only request was that these sects let the mortals under them escape as much as possible.
And this year was also called, the first year of entering the pass…
