Chapter 458 The Heavenly Gate Plan! Powerful figures gather! The Great Xia Dynasty's foundation
In fact, for Chu Yang, there was no such thing as going all in.
He was absolutely certain, and the situation was far from requiring a desperate gamble.
The reason he said this and had his subordinates do it was purely for show.
He initiated this matter and planned all the details himself, so naturally he had to set a good example.
At the same time, he also wanted everyone in the Great Thousand Worlds to see that his attitude would directly affect the reactions in all aspects when the Great Xia unified the Great Thousand Worlds in the future.
He wanted everyone to know that he and his Great Xia Dynasty possessed the ability to protect the vast world and provide shelter for countless living beings.
Having endured so many years of ravages by the extraterrestrial evil race, even after the threat of the evil race has been eliminated, everyone will still be mindful of potential dangers even in times of peace.
If a force attempts to rule the entire Great Thousand World, people will not pay attention to how powerful its foundation is, but will instead focus more on whether the other party will provide them with protection.
It sounds like a paradox, since without sufficient strength, even if one wants to take on responsibility, one lacks the ability.
However, many chilling things happened in ancient times.
Some once highly respected and powerful forces have chosen to flee or even retreat to the rear when faced with the overwhelming evil race from beyond the realm.
If it weren't for the Immortal Emperor stepping forward in the end, and if it weren't for the many powerful figures fighting to the death, the Great Thousand Realms would probably have fallen long ago.
Although everyone understands the principle of "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold," many people still harbor wishful thinking, hoping that when the sky falls, the taller ones will hold it up while they themselves remain unscathed.
Of course, if there is a force with unparalleled strength and resources in the vast world, and that can stand up in times of crisis, it will inevitably be supported by everyone.
Chu Yang wanted to build the Great Xia Dynasty into such a power!
As for the Yunlan Sect, Martial Realm, and Endless Fire Domain?
Why didn't Chu Yang merge Yunlan Sect and Great Xia Dynasty directly back then, but instead let them develop separately?
It was all so that at the very last moment, the Yunlan Sect could become the key to orchestrating the storm!
Of course, it's too early to think about these things now. The most important thing right now is the "Tianmen Project".
The Heavenly Gate Project is the name of Chu Yang's series of plans.
The intention is simple: all the Heavenly Sovereign realm experts in the Great Thousand Worlds will participate in this plan.
Admittedly, there will always be some people who want to stand by and watch, but after this incident, these people will find it difficult to find a place in the Great Thousand Worlds.
…………
The hills of the northern wilderness, the village of tomb guardians.
Most of the Tomb Keepers have now left the Northern Wilderness Hills and gone to the Divine Continent.
This was Chu Yang's arrangement. Although the Undying Lord was somewhat unwilling, Chu Yang's attitude was firm, so he had no choice but to comply.
Since he had already stated that he would follow Chu Yang's lead, and now that Chu Yang had given this order forcefully for the first time, he had no choice but to obey.
No one involved in the Tianmen Project felt there was anything wrong with it.
Tens of thousands of years!
The lineage of tomb keepers has guarded the Northern Wilderness Hills for tens of thousands of years!
The Heavenly Gate Project will ignite the second decisive battle between the Great Thousand Worlds and the extraterrestrial evil race, which will inevitably lead to a fierce and chaotic conflict.
In this situation, it would be tantamount to throwing one's life away for some young, old, or incapable grave keepers to stay behind.
Even the most emotionally detached person will have some respect and gratitude for the gravedigger.
In the small courtyard where the formation's core was located, seeing Chu Yang emerge from the thatched hut, the Undying Lord hurriedly asked, "Did it succeed?"
Chu Yang smiled and nodded. "Everything has been arranged. Once everyone has arrived, we can begin upgrading the Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array."
"The whole process will take about three days, during which time the extraterrestrial evil race will definitely try every means to obstruct it."
"Several lower planes under the Great Xia Dynasty have already shown unusual activity. I will have someone open the gates and deliberately let the extraterrestrial evil races in."
The Undying Lord hesitated slightly, then tentatively said, "But if we do that, we won't be able to focus on defending against the enemy while upgrading the Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array..."
Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "It's alright. With the numerous spirit arrays set up by me and Senior Lingxin, we can hold off the evil race for a day!"
"They certainly won't come on the first day; they'll choose the second day to launch a surprise attack at a crucial moment."
"Once they break through the barrier of the spirit array, I will deliberately open an opening so that they can rescue the Heavenly Evil God."
"In this way, when the Heavenly Evil God breaks the seal, the Great Thousand Demon-Slaying Formation will be unveiled."
The Great Thousand Demon-Slaying Array is the name Chu Yang gave to the upgraded Great Thousand Demon-Transforming Array.
Although it's only a one-word difference, the difference between the two is still apparent.
The Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array was created by the Immortal Emperor to seal and erase the life imprint of the Heavenly Evil God.
The Great Thousand Demon-Slaying Array is a pure offensive spirit array, and it has reached the true half-step Dominator level!
Strictly speaking, the Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array is not considered to be above the Saint-grade level. The reason it can possess power beyond the Saint-grade level is entirely because the Immortal Emperor sacrificed himself.
"Isn't this a bit risky?" The Undying Lord's eyelids twitched. "What if the evil race attacks on the first day? All our plans will be for nothing!"
Chu Yang smiled and said, "Don't worry! I will personally take action when the time comes!"
Sensing the absolute confidence in his tone, the Undying Lord's eyes lit up slightly, and he asked in a low voice, "Young friend, your current strength... compared to our ancestor..."
Chu Yang said casually, "Only stronger, not weaker!"
The Undying Lord gasped. Not only him, but also the figures not far away, who had heard the conversation clearly, as the two had not made any attempt to conceal it, and were equally shaken.
A woman whose appearance was not particularly outstanding, but whose figure and temperament were exceptionally remarkable, walked over, gazed at Chu Yang, and smiled gently:
"Young Master Chu's unparalleled talent would probably make countless geniuses throughout history feel ashamed of themselves..."
The woman's name was Lingxin. Although she looked young, her true age was comparable to that of the Undying Lord. She was an old monster-level spirit array master.
She is also the only late-stage Saint-grade Spirit Array Master in the Great Thousand Realms!
Chu Yang had previously mentioned that Ling Xin had jointly set up numerous formations to deal with the evil race.
In reality, all these formations were set up by Chu Yang; Ling Xin only participated in some of the core aspects.
Chu Yang did this entirely so that Ling Xin could control these spirit arrays in the future.
After all, he would have to focus on upgrading the Great Thousand Demon Transformation Array and wouldn't be able to control the many spirit arrays. So, dealing with the evil race would naturally have to be left to someone else.
Lingxin, as a Grandmaster of Spirit Arrays in the late stage of Saint Rank, was the perfect candidate.
After exchanging a few polite words with Ling Xin, Chu Yang glanced at a figure sitting with Fan Wuye in the corner of the courtyard, then frowned and asked the Undying Lord:
Why didn't Little Peach leave?
The Undying Lord said with some helplessness, "She insists on staying. Wu Ye will protect her."
Seeing Chu Yang's expression, Ling Xin couldn't help but glance at Ye Tao again, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, Young Master Chu, I will keep a close eye on Miss Ye."
Chu Yang nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Senior Lingxin."
After saying that, he walked to a corner of the courtyard, stood in front of Ye Tao, and asked with a smile, "Why aren't you leaving?"
Ye Tao looked at him, blinked, and said, "Grandpa and my senior brother are here, and you're here too, of course I have to stay!"
Hearing her matter-of-fact tone, Chu Yang was taken aback.
Chu Yang could understand why Ye Tao stayed because of the Undying Lord and Fan Wuye, but why did he himself become a key factor?
Fan Wuye explained quietly, "King Chu, Xiao Taozi said she likes you very much because you are the kindest person to her besides me and the teacher."
Chu Yang shook his head and chuckled, then suddenly felt something was off.
Isn't this generational ranking a bit off?
Ye Tao calls the Undying Lord "Grandpa" and Fan Wuye "Senior Brother"...
Unfortunately, Fan Wuye is the disciple of the Lord of Immortality...
It's a bit of a mess!
So they're really just going to each have their own opinions?
Gathering his chaotic thoughts, Chu Yang glanced at the sky.
It was already past midnight, and the sky was beginning to lighten with the first hint of dawn.
After dawn, the Tianmen Project will officially begin.
A moment later, countless streaks of light suddenly appeared on the distant horizon, illuminating the hazy sky as if it were daytime.
Then the sound of wind breaking rang out, and four figures arrived together. The one in the lead was none other than Qin Tian, who had now broken through to the Saint Rank!
Qin Tian steadied himself, standing in mid-air, and cupped his hands in greeting to the crowd in the courtyard, saying with a smile, "Qin Tian of the Great Thousand Palace, along with many powerful figures from our Great Thousand Realm, has come as promised!"
The sound waves rolled out, and surging spiritual energy waves enveloped the entire Northern Wilderness Hill.
Looking at the densely packed figures, Chu Yang smiled and rose into the air, saying, "I am deeply grateful for everyone's willingness to participate in the Heavenly Gate Project!"
Upon hearing his words, countless powerful figures burst into laughter, bowing respectfully and exchanging polite greetings.
Following closely behind the Great Thousand Company's Saint-grade items were a group of Saint-grade powerhouses from all over the Great Thousand Realms.
Some of them are revered as Dao Ancestors, while others are solitary figures who live in seclusion in the forest or remain in closed-door cultivation.
A withered old woman chuckled and said, "I never imagined that after a thousand years of seclusion, a figure like you, young friend, would appear in this vast world. Truly, the younger generation is to be feared!"
Another gaunt old man said, "We are truly unworthy of the King of Chu's gratitude."
"It's because we old folks are useless that the burden of pacifying the evil clan has fallen on the shoulders of the younger generation."
"Now that the King of Chu is willing to take on this responsibility, we are naturally willing to die for it. Otherwise, even in the afterlife, we would have no face to meet our old friends..."
Chu Yang smiled and exchanged warm greetings with everyone, while the Undying Lord and Fan Wuye quickly began to settle the many powerful figures.
Now the entire village has been razed to the ground, leaving only the small courtyard that served as the core of the formation.
The large open area was enough for everyone to sit down. There were some stone tables and benches in front of the courtyard, and only experts at the Saint-level were qualified to sit there.
The others did not complain at all, even the Heavenly Sovereigns stood obediently at a distance.
Because they knew very well that once the extraterrestrial evil race arrived, a fierce battle would ensue between the two sides.
The higher a person's cultivation level and strength, the stronger the enemies they face. It is insignificant for them to enjoy some privileges before the battle.
Moreover, these powerful figures already hold ridiculously high positions in the Great Thousand Worlds, so who would dare to sit at the same table with them?
After everyone was settled, another large group of powerful individuals arrived with a roar.
However, this time the number of people is far greater than before!
It should be noted that those who just arrived were not only people from the Great Thousand Palace, but also various powerful figures summoned by the Great Thousand Palace according to the number of people on Chu Yang's list.
It is no exaggeration to say that these people represent almost all the resources that the Great Thousand Realms can offer.
What remains are only the giant-level forces and the powerful individuals among the transcendent forces.
Seeing so many people coming, even Qin Tian was a little stunned.
As the person in charge of the Great Thousand Palace, how could I not know that such a power was hidden in the Great Thousand Realm?
However, everyone soon discovered the problem: it seemed that 99% of the people who came were not very strong.
Clad in armor and wielding spears, they exuded a unique aura that merged with each other, converging into a powerful fighting spirit.
These people are... warriors?
A graceful figure in a dragon robe landed before Chu Yang, bowing deeply and saying, "Teacher, all those from the Great Xia Dynasty above the Supreme Realm have come!"
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock.
All those above the Supreme Realm have arrived?
What is the Great Xia Dynasty trying to do?
Everyone knew that even if the plan succeeded, it would cause enormous losses.
In this situation, if all the powerful figures of the Great Xia Dynasty were to come out, they would likely suffer heavy losses!
and also……
There are way too many people here, aren't there?
Even with the addition of numerous demon slayers, the Great Thousand Palace's foundation still seems to be slightly inferior!
Chu Yang naturally noticed the changes in the expressions of the powerful figures from all sides at the major realms, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
Isn't this exactly the effect he wanted?
Chu Yang nodded, then glanced at a silver-armored general closely following behind Tang Guo, and said with a smile, "Yao Feng, there's not enough room for so many people here..."
Yao Feng immediately understood, and with a wave of his hand, those supreme-level warriors entered his personal space.
By this time, dawn had broken on the horizon. With the dense shadows in the sky no longer obscuring the view, the morning light spilled onto the earth, bringing a ray of brightness.
The fall of many powerful figures from the Great Xia Dynasty quickly shocked many people.
They discovered that there were actually more than a dozen figures sitting around the stone table in the Great Xia Dynasty.
In other words...
The Great Xia Dynasty possesses more than a dozen Saint-level experts!
In particular, the Empress of Great Xia, the Pavilion Master and Young Pavilion Master of Hundred Flowers Pavilion, and the young general who was suspected to be a war division commander actually entered the courtyard directly.
It should be noted that since the arrival of the many powerful figures led by the Great Thousand Palace, only Chu Yang, the Undying Lord, and Ling Xin have been sitting in the courtyard.
Therefore, everyone tacitly agreed that only those at the late stage of the Saint rank could enter the academy.
Doesn't this mean...?
The Great Xia Dynasty possesses a total of four late-stage Saint-level experts?
Goodness...
This is a sign that things are about to change drastically!
Everyone has realized that once this matter is over, the Great Xia Dynasty will likely transform into a power that surpasses even the giants!
The Great Thousand Palace, once hailed as the number one power in the Great Thousand Worlds, will probably have to step aside!
Just then, everyone suddenly heard Tang Huo'er's voice coming from the courtyard.
"Teacher, I just received news that the extraterrestrial evil race has launched a general offensive against all four borders simultaneously."
"At the cost of four Heavenly Demon Emperors' lives, the border battlefield was destroyed!"
"Currently, the Martial Realm, the Endless Fire Domain, the Sword Domain, and the headquarters of the Great Thousand Palace are all facing immense pressure!" (End of Chapter)
