Chapter 1659: Chapter 1659
Upon reaching the Eastern Land, the Little Princess and Magpie staged a rebellion, refusing to stay in the birdcage any longer. So, Master Sun set them free - but he expressly warned, "I reserve the right of using the Birdcage Magical Tool! If either of you misbehaves... Humph!"
The Birdcage Magical tool was quite formidable.
Master Sun returned without causing any disturbance, briefly stopped at the Summit Metropolitan Office, checked on the work of his subordinate offices, then headed to the Northwest Front.
The great war against the Demon Clan was about to start, with Predecessor Santa holding down the fort here.
Predecessor Santa might be the only existence that was not surprised by the arrival of Master Sun - because the former could already demonstrate Tire-8 combat power. However, when Master Sun was planning, he initially thought of the Red Dragon Master rather than Santa. After a brief trance, he remembered the existence of the predecessor and understood: the predecessor had genuinely returned to the Tire-8 level and was currently hidden from the world like him.
Predecessor Santa was a man of integrity and remembered his agreement with Master Sun to assist out three times. He had voluntarily gone to the border of the two races before the war.
During their meeting, the predecessor looked at him approvingly, "I... Our Clan Leader indeed didn’t misjudge you." Master Sun laughed, "You’re just too kind, Your Excellency. I came hoping that you could pass along a message because I would like to have a discussion with the Red Dragon Master."
Santa asked, "Can you please tell me beforehand what you want to discuss? You know, under the current Heavenly Track, even if my master were to awaken a part of his consciousness, he would face great risks."
Master Sun nodded, conveying his thoughts, "I wish to discuss with Your Excellency about whether it’s possible to bring back the Heavenly Palace."
Santa was shocked, "That... Isn’t that unlikely?"
"I have some ideas that I would like to discuss in person with Your Excellency."
Santa pondered for a moment and responded cautiously, "Alright, I will faithfully relay your message. But whether he wishes to meet you or not is beyond my control."
The two of them left the matter there. Master Sun turned his attention to the mysteries of the ’Grand Hidden’ level. Santa’s existence was actually a division of the Red Dragon Master’s consciousness, a fact which was well known to Master Sun. Initially, Santa was unwilling to admit it, but after finding it humiliating, everyone stopped talking about it.
But once Santa truly achieved the Tire-8 level, the memories related to the Red Dragon Master’s Eighth Major Realm were unlocked. Many strong beings from their era had gained a lot of experience in the "Grand Hidden" realm, such as how to avoid risks, use power, extend the power to the next level, and minimize losses when they had no choice but to expose themselves, etc.
Master Sun and the Red Dragon Master were intimate partners, with the latter wishing to become a god and needing Master Sun’s aid. Thus, Santa readily shared all the profound mysteries that could enhance Master Sun’s strength.
Hitherto, Master Sun, who had been exploring the Tire-8 level alone, had gained a wealth of experience from his predecessors. This long talk with Santa was indeed the biggest gain in his cultivation since he ascended to the Eighth Major Realm.
They talked for five full days. On the third day, the three-pronged army of the Wood Dynasty launched a surprise attack on the Nine Witch Demon Court. The large scale and inevitably brutal national war had officially begun.
Predecessor Santa and Master Sun, each with their own means, covertly influenced the outcome of the war. Naturally, the elite Cultivation Army of the Wood Dynasty was unstoppable.
After their long conversation, Master Sun felt a wave of exhaustion. He fell asleep on a piece of deep red stone. In his dreams, a friend dressed as Emperor Osborn appeared, riding on a fire dragon.
