Chapter 766: Chapter 674: Movements from All Sides

The Northern Domain Mo Family, when viewed across the entire Profound Immortal Realm, is an undisputed overlord.

Moreover, compared to the disorganized state of the major forces in the Longevity World, where only the Immortal Countries are slightly larger, the Profound Immortal Realm has maintained nearly complete rule for ten thousand years.

Such rule naturally leads to highly centralized power and resources.

This can be seen from the fact that the Heavenly Fire Sect, as a dominant force, has only one Daoist Master, and the Ten Thousand Stars Sword Sect has but one Immortal Master and three Daoist Masters, highlighting the disparity with the Mo Family.

To put it bluntly, all the forces of the Nine Northern Regions combined still would not be a match for the Mo Family.

This is the might of the Lord of the Northern Domain.

Months ago, the Mo Family initiated a conscription order, calling upon forces large and small within the Northern Region to form a coalition army to encircle and suppress the Creation Gate, which challenged their overlord status. This news had attracted the attention of all major forces throughout the entire Profound Immortal Realm.

Even the Dominator of the Profound Immortal Realm, the Immortal Sect Master of the Xuanyuan Sword Sect Luo Xiao, personally turned his attention to the Northern Domain.

Many people are not fools.

If the Creation Gate dared to challenge the dignity of the Mo Family, they must have some confidence in their strength.

The Mo Family has a battle on their hands.

However, there is still considerable confidence in the Mo Family’s ability to withstand this storm.

On the one hand, the Mo Family did not underestimate the Creation Gate in the slightest.

Merely due to the annihilation of the Heavenly Fire Sect, they launched a massive conscription order, calling on all forces within the Northern Domain to jointly encircle and suppress the Creation Gate.

On the other hand...

The Mo Family has profound heritage.

Two Profound Immortals.

Clan Suppressing Immortal Device.

And the immensely powerful Immortal Technique, Unlimited Annihilation Sword Qi!

Any one of these three trump cards unraveled would be a game-changer on the battlefield.

No matter how formidable the Supreme Elder of the Creation Gate was, in the face of the heritage branched off from the Xuanyuan Sword Sect ten thousand years ago, it was still far from comparable.

What truly concerned Sect Master Luo Xiao was whether the Creation Gate could use this opportunity to weaken the Mo Family’s power.

Furthermore, since the Flame River Dao was close to the Central Golden Land, if the Mo Family were to defeat the Creation Gate and then use the spoils to develop the Flame River Dao substantially, transforming it into a strong region like the Xuanjin Dao, it would be quite unfavorable to their Xuanyuan Sword Sect’s rule.

The best course of action would be to see if the Xuanyuan Sword Sect could find a chance to separate the Flame River Dao from the Northern Domain if the Creation Gate truly inflicted severe damage on the Mo Family.

At the very least, they should turn the Flame River Dao into a chaotic no-man’s-land, a buffer zone between the two major forces.

For over ten thousand years, even if the Four Great Families had separated from the Xuanyuan Sword Sect, the relationship between ancestors had long since diluted, and the competition among the five major forces had intensified in recent years.

If it weren’t for the Four Great Families continuously intermarrying, allying, and supporting one another, and the Xuanyuan Sword Sect lacking the power to defeat the united Four Great Families, the Xuanyuan Sword Sect would likely have made a move on the four regional areas long ago.

Mulling over these thoughts, the Xuanyuan Sword Sect Master unfolded another detailed dossier on the Mo Family.

"According to the information we’ve received, Mo Ziya broke through to become a top Profound Immortal ten years ago, and as for Mo Longfei... While we can’t be certain, our estimates suggest he should have High-level Profound Immortal Cultivation. In addition to several Immortal Masters... Even if that Supreme Elder of the Creation Gate possesses strength comparable to a top Profound Immortal..."

Luo Xiao shook his head.

"This Jiang Yufeng, after all, has underestimated the Mo Family. He probably thought the Mo Family might still be concealing a Profound Immortal, but, a Profound Immortal is different from another Profound Immortal. A top Profound Immortal is worth four ordinary Profound Immortals. A top Profound Immortal like Mo Ziya, who possesses an Immortal Device and cultivates the Unlimited Annihilation Sword Qi, could escape even if ten or so ordinary Profound Immortals attempted to besiege him. Jiang Yufeng, no matter how strong, could only take on two, maybe three regular Profound Immortals at most."

Luo Xiao pondered internally.

Profound Immortals represented the deepest concealed pinnacle combat force of any power.

Just like how the top superpowers of Blue Star possess nuclear weapons—people know they have them, but the exact locations, the specific numbers, yield, remains unclear to all.

The same goes for other forces looking at the Profound Immortals within these Overlord-level forces.

They know they have Profound Immortals, but the true extent of the Profound Immortals within these Overlord-level forces is almost entirely unknown.

Even Luo Xiao, the Xuanyuan Sword Sect Master, could only guess.

This is also why the Xuanyuan Sword Sect never dared to make a move against the Four Great Families, to thoroughly rule over the Profound Immortal Realm.

Without a clear understanding of the opponent’s strengths and weaknesses, any action could mire them in a quagmire, potentially dragging themselves down as well.

Better to maintain the face and dignity of their own Dominator-level forces, and react to changes with constancy.

"However, speaking of which, just who is this Jiang Yufeng? Before his rise, there wasn’t the slightest sign..."

Luo Xiao pondered: "Could it be that the information we probed is true?"

Just then, a sudden breaking the sky sound came from outside the door.

"Sect Master, news has come in from the Baofeng Mountain Range."

Before the person arrived, the transmission of Divine Thought preceded them.

Luo Xiao looked up to see his Deputy Sect Master Jin Ziyun quickly entering.

"So soon? Judging by the time, the Northern Territory Alliance Army hasn’t finished assembling yet, right?"

Luo Xiao was somewhat surprised.

"It’s Jiang Yufeng who took the initiative to strike! He launched a surprise attack on the Baofeng Mountain Range while the Northern Territory Alliance Army had not yet finished assembling!"

Jin Ziyun said, her emotions turbulent, and she eagerly continued: "We all underestimated Jiang Yufeng... he..."

"What happened?"

Luo Xiao stood up.

Jin Ziyun quickly handed over a Jade Talisman with the news to Luo Xiao.
