Chapter 578: Chapter 578

"Ladies and gentlemen, you should all be clear about what my older brother’s innate divine abilities represent."

Within the spacious hall, seated were not only top martial artists from the Sun and Moon Alliance but also You Chengkong, Jiang Tunhai, and others.

Ji Jingqiu reaching the top of the Ancient Road first officially declared the "uniqueness" of the Sun and Moon Alliance.

At this moment, countless martial artists take pride in joining the Sun and Moon Alliance.

Even taboo martial artists like You Chengkong need to look up to the figure of Ji Jingqiu.

After hearing Senluo’s words, everyone’s expression became solemn.

Previously, they were on the Ancient Road, but now as they are about to leave it, everyone’s focus gradually shifted towards the outside world.

"Even the Ancient Road has been eroded by the Nether Sea, how good could the outside world be now?"

Senluo spoke quietly, directly addressing the nagging worry in everyone’s heart.

Most of them were core members of their respective powers, having heard rumors and known that the Nine States might face destruction and the migration of the Ten Thousand Clans was imminent.

"I personally suggest that our alliance remains effective even outside, Divine Travel is just a start, for us to shed the labels of the younger generation and officially take over great powers, we must at least reach Heavenly Person status. During this period, we can maintain the circulation of news and resources."

Hearing Senluo’s suggestion, no one was surprised as they had guessed it beforehand.

"Is this the embryonic form of a cross-power organization..." someone whispered.

Such scenarios had occurred in past years but seldom lasted long, lacking a key centripetal force, making it easy for people’s hearts to scatter.

The key reason isn’t because Ji Jingqiu was honored first on Ancient Road, but because of the Heart Flame All Phenomena Lamp!

The importance of this divine ability, as the invasion of the Nether Sea continues, keeps escalating.

The factions of the Nine States are not without means to suppress the Deceit Fog and Ghostly Mist. Yanfu State could even be termed an "expert" in this area, but the costs are exorbitant and it can’t be widely replicated or popularized.

"A decent proposal," You Chengkong said with a gleam in his eyes, "Without hiding it from everyone, the Southern Wilderness Continent has actually shown signs long ago, the worst affected areas have even seen widespread ’Spiritual Plague’."

Hearing this, the martial artists from the Southern Wilderness Continent changed their expressions simultaneously.

The intelligence they knew was not as precise as You Chengkong’s, having only a vague idea.

Deceit Fog is just one of the most direct signs of the Nether Sea’s invasion; the disasters it brings go far beyond, including unquenchable whispers and Spiritual Plague...

Cases like the Spiritual Plague erupt silently and vary greatly, for instance, someone might wake up and completely turn into someone else without warning.

The methods of the Nether Sea are devious, ever-changing, and penetrate everywhere, making it impossible to guard against.

"Alliance Leader Ji’s Heart Lamp, although getting weaker with each passing, provides a place for refuge, and that is enough," You Chengkong said quietly.

Ji Jingqiu’s Heart Lamp is this organization’s most substantial "centripetal force."

"I have seen the methods of Buddha Country before, and they are far inferior to the miraculous effects of Alliance Leader Ji’s Heart Lamp," Jiang Tunhai added seriously, "The future is fraught with difficulties, but forming a defensive and offensive alliance could indeed benefit many matters."

Everyone was solemn. Does this mean that Ji Jingqiu has the potential to rise up a force superior to Buddha Country?

they are the next Buddha Country?

In the end, Senluo’s proposal was unanimously passed.

Everyone didn’t mind having a backup plan, nor did they mind getting a bit closer to Ji Jingqiu.

Even if some of them are hostile forces in the outside world, it doesn’t affect their personal alliances.

On the level of first-class civilizations, absolute hatred rarely exists; within the internal strife, ultimately, it all comes down to interests.

As the three-month period arrives, martial artists from the Ancient Road return to the Nine States one by one.

Because Ji Jingqiu did not make it in time, the "harvest" meant for him was handed over to Feng Wu of the Nine Palaces to bring back.

And this "harvest" brought back by Feng Wu, just by Heavenly Medicine alone, exceeded three, causing a sensation.

Just these few Heavenly Medicine plants caused quite a stir and controversy within the internal circles of the Nine Palaces.

If it wasn’t for their owner being Ji Jingqiu...

Within a majestic palace standing in the heavens.

Members from some of the factions of the Nine Palaces gathered briefly here to discuss the recent movements of the Great Red Sky Palace and the Red Bright Heavenly Palace.

With the news of Ji Jingqiu being first on the Ten Thousand Ancient Stele spreading.

The activities of these two recently were somewhat "intense."

A middle-aged man sighed, "In recent years, the Red Bright Heavenly Palace and Great Red Sky Palace have increasingly grown distant from us, but who would have thought that in this generation, someone would emerge who is first on the Ten Thousand Ancient Stele."

Some nodded, others remained silent.

Years ago, the Red Bright Heavenly Palace brought the Great Red Sky Palace as an external ally, the two joined forces, initially opposing the Dragon Seal and Tianyuan Palace, and later escalated to internal strife within the Nine Palaces.

Although generally stable, private conflicts never ceased, and losses even occurred at the Heavenly Person level.

Now, with Ji Jingqiu from Great Red Sky Palace, it’s visibly about to truly rise.

Above, an old man with white hair and beard, who had been closing his eyes, opened his eyes and glanced over the crowd, speaking indifferently:

"He from the Great Red Sky Palace has become the first on the Ten Thousand Ancient Stele, who holds the future ’heart’ and ’virtue’, can’t you all discern that?"

"Have you been in high positions for so long that you can’t even see the big picture?"

Everyone was speechless.

The old man said softly, "Keep your thoughts together, the key issue now is leaving the Nine States, not rushing into internal strife."

The previously speaking middle-aged man quickly said, "Tianyuan Palace indicates that they have contacted a sub-level cosmic plane, which is willing to accept us, but requires us to contribute in future cosmic invasion battles."
