Chapter 328: Chapter 328 Two Major Forces

Lin Chen knew that his elder martial brothers and his master might have traveled to other places in the Eastern Domain, but they probably hadn’t been everywhere in the domain, and they might have never heard of the Red Soul Hall.

At this moment, Lin Chen planned to share all the information he knew, so that when the Black Cloud Sect led the Moon Shadow Pavilion and the people from Red Soul Hall to attack, everyone would be prepared and could take measures in advance.

"Red Soul Hall, what kind of power is that? How come we have never heard of it?"

The reactions of Xu Ma’an, Li Xuanming, and the others were just as Lin Chen had guessed; they knew nothing of the existence of Red Soul Hall.

The information Lin Chen had about the Red Soul Hall was also gathered from the people of the Moon Shadow Pavilion, and as for how powerful Red Soul Hall truly was, Lin Chen himself didn’t really know.

However, under the Red Soul Hall were seven subsidiary powers, with the Black Cloud Sect and Moon Shadow Pavilion being just two of them.

The Jade Cauldron Sect already felt incredibly wary of just the Moon Shadow Pavilion alone.

As for Black Cloud Sect, if it weren’t for the assistance of the Great Flame Imperial Family in this great battle, the Jade Cauldron Sect likely couldn’t contend with them head-on.

From this, one could see just how formidable the power of Red Soul Hall was.

Now the spirit puppet that Lin Chen had refined was still infiltrating the Moon Shadow Pavilion to gather intelligence, so if the Moon Shadow Pavilion made any moves, Lin Chen would be the first to know.

Although his spirit puppet had somewhat low cultivation and hadn’t infiltrated among the very powerful, only making contact with some lower ranks, it was better than nothing. As long as the Moon Shadow Pavilion made any major moves, he would certainly get wind of some information.

Due to this incident, Lin Chen knew that the next time the Moon Shadow Pavilion and Black Cloud Sect attacked together, the danger would not be less than this time.

Lin Chen didn’t feel much allegiance toward the Jade Cauldron Sect just yet, but after all, he had formed a bond over two years, and towards his masters and martial sisters of Jade Bird Peak, he regarded them as family. Naturally, Lin Chen would do his utmost to prevent them from being harmed.

"The power of Red Soul Hall is very formidable, with the Black Cloud Sect and Moon Shadow Pavilion being just a part of them. Red Soul Hall is not a single power, but an alliance composed of various forces."

Lin Chen slowly began to speak, explaining all he knew about the Red Soul Hall to Xu Ma’an and the others.

Upon hearing this, everyone instantly gasped in shock. The joy they had felt before had completely vanished, and their minds were now filled with worry.

If Red Soul Hall sent powerful experts to attack Divine Sun City, their Jade Cauldron Sect would absolutely be unable to defend it.

They were completely unmatched in terms of power; how could they possibly fight?

Although they didn’t know how Lin Chen had learned this information, there was really no need for Lin Chen to concoct a series of lies to deceive them.

"What should we do now?"

"Return to the Jade Cauldron Sect? At least within the Jade Cauldron Sect, there is the Sect Protection Array, and if Red Soul Hall truly sends experts to attack, we would have something to rely on to wage a decisive battle."

Xu Ma’an frowned tightly and voiced his thoughts.

After contemplating, Li Xuanming, Yang Yuemin, and the others nodded in agreement with Xu Ma’an’s decision.

Under the current circumstances, they had no choice but to fight to the death, as facing a power like Red Soul Hall, they really didn’t have any other options. They couldn’t just allow themselves to be slaughtered.

"No, if we retreat back to the Jade Cauldron Sect, the situation might not be better than staying in Divine Sun City. Divine Sun City has the City Protection Array of the Great Flame Dynasty, and beneath it lies the Dragon Vein of Divine Sun City. Once these powers are activated, they will certainly not be inferior to our Sect Protection Array of the Jade Cauldron Sect."

"What we need to do now," he said, "is to activate all forces, ready to strike and prepare for a decisive battle against the people of the Red Soul Hall."

"There are also some military forces left by Divine Sun City here; if used properly, they can be of some use."

Upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, everyone pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

They hadn’t expected that Lin Chen’s arrangements would be so appropriate, incorporating both the City Protection Array of Divine Sun City and the Power of the Dragon Vein beneath the ground.

That is to say, Lin Chen was now able to operate Divine Sun City’s City Protection Array.

What they didn’t know was that, thanks to the combined efforts of Lin Chen and his Second Soul Division, their Formation skills had reached the equivalent of a Fourth-Grade Peak Array Master; hence, the City Protection Array of Divine Sun City, which also fell into that category, could naturally be activated by Lin Chen.

Moreover, Lin Chen possessed the Dragon Vein Jade Seal, giving him the ability to mobilize the Power of the Dragon Vein. So, taken together, these powers were indeed stronger than the Sect Protection Array of the Jade Cauldron Sect.

Xu Ma’an and the others, although relieved by Lin Chen’s words, still wore very grim expressions the moment they thought of the might of the Red Soul Hall, their faces filled with worry.

"My esteemed teachers need not be so tense. Though the Red Soul Hall is powerful, the Divine Flame Alliance will not let them run amok. The forces of the Great Flame Dynasty are within the jurisdiction of the Divine Flame Alliance, and the Red Soul Hall will certainly not sit by if they attempt to interfere with the Great Flame Dynasty."

"So even if the Red Soul Hall wants to send someone to harm us, they dare not dispatch powerful individuals, lest they be detected by the Divine Flame Alliance, which would constitute a blatant violation of the rules."

Lin Chen briefed everyone again on the matters between the Red Soul Hall and the Divine Flame Alliance.

"The Divine Flame Alliance? What kind of force is that?"

Xu Ma’an, Yang Yuemin, and the others were bewildered upon hearing Lin Chen mention another force.

Although Xu Ma’an and the others had traveled to other places in the Eastern Domain in their youth, they had not come into contact with these forces.

After all, the Divine Flame Alliance and the Red Soul Hall are among the top forces in the Eastern Domain.

Hearing this, Lin Chen went on to explain the strength of the Divine Flame Alliance to Xu Ma’an and the others.

About the Divine Flame Alliance, Lin Chen didn’t have much information; he only learned a little from Yu Weilian.

Just like the Red Soul Hall, the Divine Flame Alliance consists of several forces. They can be said to be incompatible with each other, with both powers dividing the Eastern Domain into countless regions, each governing some.

The Divine Flame Sect, where Yu Weilian resided, maintained a neutral stance.

However, because of the Red Soul Hall’s outrageous behavior and sometimes inhumane actions, the Divine Flame Sect actually leaned more towards the Divine Flame Alliance. It’s just that the Divine Flame Sect has always preferred to stay out of the conflicts between the two major forces.

"Nephew Lin Chen truly knows quite a bit, surpassing even us old bones. How did you come to learn all of this?"

Xu Ma’an asked, puzzled.

Hearing this, Lin Chen smiled faintly.

"The young man has merely learned from the content in the Library Pavilion, that’s all."
