Chapter 1327: Strategy to Repel the Enemy
After receiving the flying sword message from the front line, the Hongwu Immortal Emperor took 7,000 Taiyi Xuanxian realm late-stage cultivators, including the Qingluan Immortal Emperor and the Xikang Immortal Emperor, and rushed to the outskirts of the Chaos Star Domain.
At the same time, the atmosphere in the magic weapon hall behind the human army was extremely tense.
Dozens of human immortal emperors and high-ranking dragons gathered here, and everyone had a solemn look on their face.
After several days and nights of fierce fighting, both sides paid a heavy price, but eventually a stalemate was reached.
Everyone gathered here to discuss how to completely eradicate the demons and monsters.
"Everyone," said the Immortal Emperor Hongwu in a steady and powerful voice, "This sudden attack by the demons and monsters not only completely destroyed the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, but also nearly allowed them to approach the seal of the demons from beyond the realm. If this continues, it will be very disadvantageous to us. I wonder if you have any good plans."
Upon hearing this, a group of powerful Immortal Emperors looked solemn, and it was obvious that none of them had a good solution.
After a long time, Xuankong Immortal Emperor of the Taikoo Star Palace suggested:
"Everyone, based on my experience, why don't we consider joining forces with the Phoenix Clan? If the Phoenix Clan joins us, I believe that destroying the demon and monster coalition will be just around the corner."
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall erupted in discussion. The Phoenix Clan, renowned for its powerful fire-attributed magic and rebirth abilities, was one of the most mysterious and powerful races in the Immortal Realm.
However, due to their aloof nature and seldom interacting with the outside world, it is not easy to persuade them to participate in this war.
"Although the Phoenix Clan is powerful, they have never been involved in external affairs. How can we ask them to help us?" Changchun Immortal Emperor sighed lightly.
Xuankong Immortal Emperor smiled slightly and explained: "As far as I know, Patriarch Aotian joined our human camp because of Lu Chen's persuasion.
I think that if Clan Leader Ao Tian could just recount how Lu Chen persuaded you, perhaps we could use the same method to persuade the Phoenix Clan."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone present changed, and the atmosphere suddenly reached freezing point.
For a long time, Lu Chen's successful persuasion of the dragon clan to delay the war has become the focus of attention of all major forces. Although the heat has subsided, it has never left the sight of a group of powerful people.
This can be seen from the fact that Ao Tian has always been eager to find Lu Chen. People speculate that there must be an unknown secret between them.
However, because the human race and the dragon race are in a period of cooperation, no one dares to mention this matter in public.
However, Immortal Emperor Xuankong not only mentioned it in public today, but also asked him in front of Ao Tian, which made the atmosphere on the scene instantly become subtle.
Ao Tian was already angry because he hadn't found the mysterious middle-aged monk. Now that he was questioned directly by the other party, his face instantly became gloomy, and he snorted coldly:
"Xuankong, what do you mean? How dare you challenge me?"
"I dare not, I dare not. It's just that everyone is very curious about how Lu Chen convinced you in the first place. Of course, if Patriarch Ao Tian is unwilling to explain, it doesn't matter. Once we find Lu Chen, I believe we will know the answer."
Xuankong Immortal Emperor didn't seem to notice Ao Tian's ugly expression, and spoke tentatively again.
Ao Tian snorted coldly upon seeing this, but ignored the Immortal Emperor Xuankong. He felt that the Immortal Emperor Xuankong was very unusual today, especially since he mentioned Lu Chen.
And from his words, he seemed very confident in finding Lu Chen.
To be honest, Ao Tian now regrets getting involved in this mess. Not only did he fail to get any information about the Chaos Tree, but he also caused damage to the dragon clan's power.
But he had no choice. Either he rejected Lu Chen from the beginning, or now he had no way to retreat even if he wanted to.
If he withdraws his troops rashly, he will most likely face attacks from the demons and monsters. Of course, he can also choose to abandon the human race and rejoin the demon and monster coalition.
But in that case, whether the demons and monsters can trust him is one thing, and if they suffer revenge from the human race again, they will be attacked from both sides.
Therefore, judging from the current situation, continuing to cooperate with the human race is a relatively better way out.
It only takes a breath to reach this point.
Ao Tian suddenly said, "The Phoenix Clan's ancestor, Yuan Feng, seems to have some connection with Lu Chen. Perhaps if you find Lu Chen, you can really win over the Phoenix Clan."
As soon as these words were spoken, an uproar erupted in the Magical Treasure Hall. The gazes of the Immortal Emperors turned to Immortal Emperor Xikang, their eyes filled with confusion and expectation.
Because among all the people present, except Ao Tian, only the Immortal Emperor Xikang had seen Lu Chen, and it was with his consent that Lu Chen went to the dragon territory.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Xikang Immortal Emperor simply closed his eyes and pretended not to see. He had repeatedly stressed that he was not familiar with Lu Chen and could not explain why. As for whether others believed him or not, that was not his business.
At this time, the Ancient Immortal Emperor thought for a moment and suggested:
"Everyone, while convincing the Phoenix Clan is important, the seal leading to the outer realm must also be taken seriously.
I suggest that we strengthen the concealment formation, defense formation, and attack formation outside the seal to weaken the enemy's offensive capabilities.
If we can perfect these formations, we will not only be able to effectively resist the enemy's attacks, but also reduce our casualties."
"Although this is a good idea, its implementation is both time-consuming and labor-intensive," another Immortal Emperor frowned and said, "What we lack most right now is time. The combined forces of the Demon and Monster tribes could attack at any time, and we don't have enough time to arrange and perfect those complex formations."
Then, another immortal proposed the idea of sowing discord between the demons and monsters. "If we can successfully sow discord between them, we'll greatly reduce the pressure. After all, historically, the demons and monsters haven't been without conflict."
Upon hearing this, the Immortal Emperor Hongwu pondered for a moment and said:
“Although time is tight, I think everyone’s suggestions are good, so my opinion is to proceed simultaneously.
Not only do we need to perfect the formation, but we also need to find a way to alienate the demon and monster tribes. At the same time, we need to find Lu Chen and see if we can use his connections to win over the Phoenix tribe."
The Immortal Emperor Hongwu is the deputy leader of the Jiuxiao Emperor Sect in the Chaos Realm, and the Jiuxiao Emperor Sect secretly occupies the top position among the five top forces.
Therefore, the immortal emperors present did not refute the words of Hongwu Immortal Emperor. After all, everything was for the benefit of the entire immortal world.
Seeing that no one had any objection, the Immortal Emperor Hongwu directly assigned tasks to everyone.
However, at this moment, a figure hurriedly walked into the hall. His face was solemn and anxious, and everyone suddenly had a bad premonition...
