Chapter 375: Chapter 213: Heaven and Earth Killing Catastrophe in Disarray_2

Gu Shanhai wasn’t worried about information leaks, with the presence of Prophetic Divination, even if he placed the firearms before those bigwigs, they wouldn’t recognize it, unless they obtained corresponding data and designs.

The inability to develop and progress was the biggest fatal point in Xuanji Realm.

"Today’s data hasn’t arrived yet, it should take about another hour, I’ll go and hurry them up," Bai Lv said, collecting massive amounts of data and intelligence daily for Gu Shanhai from various locations.

"Okay, I know," Gu Shanhai said as he finished organizing the brand-new small Mecha technology, instructing Bai Lv to send it out with the data.

Bai Lv actually didn’t know much, whether it was the plans sent out by Gu Shanhai or the data tables collected daily, everything was encrypted. Without the corresponding decryption text, one simply couldn’t understand what was written, leaving Bai Lv’s impression of the three-sect war superficial, still thinking that the Chengyun Sect was at a disadvantage.

He was just a scapegoat and errand runner, Bai Lv knew his role and thus did not ask too much.

"Yes, Elder," Bai Lv first replied before hesitantly adding, "Elder, although I don’t understand your handwriting, from the transactions I’ve seen, continuing this way will inevitably expose you eventually."

"I know, it’s a matter of time," Gu Shanhai admitted helplessly, "As long as we establish Chengyun Sect’s advantage before being exposed, it won’t be a problem." The situation was dire for Bai Lv, who could only shield them temporarily but not forever.

Now he had also realized, ever since he stopped being data-driven, even trying to lay low became difficult, forcibly accelerating him forward.

Thinking about it, it made sense, the things he did had hugely influenced a world - why wouldn’t the Feather Transformation Sect and Juxia Sect want to eliminate him?

As for escaping, that was not an option. Yes, it was dangerous, but what if he succeeded? If Chengyun Sect could counterattack and unite the entire Xuanji Realm, with his status, he’d undoubtedly be part of the elite at the pinnacle of power, especially with a talented disciple like Shen An to protect him. With proper management, Shen An would be the next Sect Leader of Chengyun.

The benefits were enormous, and Gu Shanhai couldn’t possibly give them up.

This wasn’t just planning for a nation but scheming for an entire world.

The divination showed a slight misfortune which meant he’d earn a lot.

"Maybe we should request some Supreme Elders to come protect us? You and the Sect Leader are close, but your strength is indeed too weak," Bai Lv advised.

"No way, now that the Chengyun Sect dominates the Lower Three Realms, the Elders absolutely cannot leave; they are the Ocean Stabilizer," Gu Shanhai thought simply, manipulating both sects from below.

The emergence of firearms-type treasures had greatly enhanced the battle power in the Lower Three Realms. The successful development of small Mecha treasures could potentially enable the Middle Three Realms to kill above their level.

The Upper Three Realms were more challenging; Gu Shanhai needed to break through the technological barrier of the God Slayer Mecha, yes, the one that Shen Heng held, capable of comparing with the Peeping Dao Stage.

Just a hundred, no, even fifty God Slayer Mechas would be enough for Chengyun Sect to counterattack.

Comparing the data of Peeping Dao Stage and God Slayer Mecha, just having a cultivator from the first stage of the Divine Phase in the Upper Three Realms operating a God Slayer Mecha could possess the strength of the Peeping Dao Stage and, relying on their tough resilience, could stall two opponents of the Peeping Dao Stage.

Thus, with just fifty God Slayer Mechas on the battlefield, the higher echelons of Chengyun Sect’s combat power would definitely secure a victory.

However, this was also a huge gamble; the God Slayer Mecha was in no way comparable to the Giant God Mecha in terms of materials required and costs. Building a hundred would potentially bankrupt the entire Chengyun Sect—either victory or death, there was no middle ground.

Once Chengyun Sect was depleted, industrialization and improved productivity reliant on cultivation enhancement would collapse. But if they won, assimilating Juxia Sect and Feather Transformation Sect would not only cover the deficits but could advance even further.

Upon this suggestion, Yun Yu only took an hour to agree to the gamble. As the Sect Leader, he could see that without the help provided by Gu Shanhai, Chengyun Sect wouldn’t have attained such favorable circumstances. If this dragged on for a thousand years, it was definite that Chengyun Sect would lose.

A thousand years of war wouldn’t allow Chengyun Sect to surge a large quantity of Upper Three Realms cultivators through Gu Shanhai’s Evading Disaster Avoiding Tribulation Method. Even without this obstacle, cultivation still heavily tested one’s aptitude, especially reaching the Middle Three Realms—mere resources couldn’t elevate one’s realm; it had to rely on individual efforts.

"Alright, it’s just Elder, our recent actions have been a bit large, and I’m afraid it won’t be long before the Feather Transformation Sect notices us here, apparently having obtained some intelligence."

"I probably won’t be able to hide for much longer."

Bai Lv said somewhat helplessly, if Gu Shanhai hadn’t been making so many drastic moves, he could have held out for at least ten years. He also sensed something through delaying the Feather Transformation Sect, like their defeat on the frontlines, but he didn’t know the specifics.

With these recent actions, even his undercover identity might be exposed.

Exposing himself wasn’t much of a problem, it was just that it would implicate Gu Shanhai, which was the biggest issue.

When Gu Shanhai heard this, he also rubbed his temples, the likely presence of a spy within the Chengyun Sect; Yun Yu hadn’t managed to completely clear them out. It was only because the matter was highly confidential, so the spy couldn’t obtain more information. Considering the current situation, anyone with a brain could see the changes in the Chengyun Sect on the frontlines were related to this.

"I’ll try to see what I can do," Gu Shanhai’s first thought was to risk his life.

Spending thirty-five thousand years of lifespan to resolve this matter seemed worth it.

Yet as he started, he abruptly realized the whole world had fallen into some indescribable murderous intent. Barely making contact, Gu Shanhai hadn’t even begun his investigation when he was attacked, stripping him of a thousand years of his lifespan.

To put it simply, the search bar had now turned into a mess of garbled text, and Gu Shanhai couldn’t even search by risking his life.

"Darn it! Tribulation! When the hell did this break out!!!"

Gu Shanhai cursed internally, he had still been able to perform prophetic divination three days ago, but not anymore today.

He soon calmed down and thought, ’No matter, I am aware of the principle of the tribulation in the Xuanji Realm. It is based on the recognition of tribulation, and my "Great Heavenly Immortal Technique" is still effective. Hence, I can suppress the recognition of tribulation and thereby eliminate the tribulation.’

’So no problem, my ass! Chengyun Sect might not be affected by the tribulation, but Juxia Sect and Feather Transformation Sect can’t handle it, no wonder the frontline has been so crazy recently, knowing that they no longer hold an advantage in the Lower Three Realms and yet continuing to fight.’

’No matter, the tribulation in the Xuanji Realm has just begun. Without a main character’s assistance, it’s just a crippled thing, manageable.’

In Gu Shanhai’s eyes, the tribulation was tough but not unbeatable.

The solution was actually quite simple, just destroy the Juxia and Feather Transformation Sects.

’Only then, I might not be able to escape either, unless I switch tracks and leverage the abilities of Previous Life Biluo to jump out of the Three Realms, no longer bound by the five elements.’

While the idea was good, it wasn’t easy to implement; at a glance it seemed like he’d escaped one disaster only for it to become more conspicuous. The world was all white except for my stark blackness, clearly indicating problems.

"Phew, be careful recently, don’t get killed halfway," Gu Shanhai looked at Bai Lv and instructed.

Bai Lv broke out in cold sweat, "Elder, did you see something?"

"It’s precisely because I haven’t seen anything that I’m advising you," Gu Shanhai didn’t outright say everyone was in the midst of a large-scale tribulation, and just because you can avoid it doesn’t mean others won’t kill you.

"The time is about right, go retrieve the confidential letter and the data report from yesterday," Gu Shanhai spoke, mentioning the tribulation in the letter to Yun Yu, telling him to find his own way to deal with it.

Otherwise, what else could Gu Shanhai do?
