Chapter 301: Nation, Sect, Spirit Hall; Ning Fengzhi's New Plan
On the way back, Dugu Bo suddenly asked Ning Fengzhi with some confusion, "Fengzhi, I always feel like you are intentionally offending the Heaven Dou Empire?"
Gu Rong nodded in agreement. He felt the same way. Ning Fengzhi was planting a thorn in their hearts, making them very uncomfortable without completely falling out.
"That's right. If I'm not mistaken, Emperor Snow Night's face should be flushed red by now," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile. "He's probably plotting with Xue Beng to win over other forces to restrain my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Hmm, the Clear Sky Sect would be a good choice."
"I deliberately used Qian Renxue's power to force them out of the mountain for this reason. Although the two sides have some grudges now, that's not a problem, because the Spirit Hall is their biggest enemy. Uncle Dugu, Uncle Gu, in the next few years, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect may be suppressed to some extent. You must restrain your tempers then!"
Gu Rong and Dugu Bo exchanged glances, their faces full of doubt. They really didn't understand Ning Fengzhi's thoughts. There was no reason to actively hope that their own Sect would be suppressed.
"Xiao Tian, since you want the continent to be unified, I will help you. However, why must the one who becomes king be Qian Renxue?" Ning Fengzhi didn't answer them, but looked in the direction of Seven Treasure Mountain. The purpose of doing so much was for Tianlin.
He found it difficult to completely trust the Spirit Hall and Qian Renxue.
In his opinion, Tianlin's plan seemed feasible, but it was too passive. It was even based entirely on Qian Renxue's future ideas to decide the path they should take.
If Qian Renxue was willing to reconcile, then they would help her unify the continent. If she wasn't, then they would fight to the death. But why should their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect act according to a woman's wishes?
In Ning Fengzhi's heart, the strength of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was increasing day by day. If this continued, they would eventually gain the power to compete with the Spirit Hall for dominance over the world. If the continent was to be unified, why insist on Qian Renxue?
Therefore, he made a major modification to Tianlin's original plan. His ambition was far greater than Tianlin's, and the stakes were even higher, even betting on the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. It was either success or death.
The first step was that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect must break away from the Heaven Dou Empire, but it couldn't be an active departure. Otherwise, the reputation of betraying allies would be unavoidable. Moreover, he couldn't actively seek refuge with the Spirit Hall, so he could only remain neutral for the time being.
However, once the continental war began, neutrals would never be able to stay out of it, and might even become a common target for both sides. Therefore, for a period of time in the future, the Sect would have to continue to support the Heaven Dou Empire. No matter how much grievance they suffered during this period, they had to endure it as long as the time hadn't come.
This was what Ning Fengzhi had told Tianlin, determination and patience!
The second step was the key. If Qian Renxue could take the initiative to cooperate with him in the future, and like Tianlin, gain his Ning Fengzhi's approval, then Ning Fengzhi could terminate his plan and choose Tianlin's plan. Otherwise, he could only go his own way.
The third step, once this step was reached, it meant that things had entered an irreversible stage. Ning Fengzhi had ways to obtain the territory, troops, and resource supplies needed to dominate the world. When the time came, they would automatically appear by Tianlin's side when needed.
In fact, Ning Fengzhi was very hesitant when designing this plan, after all, the stakes were too high, but he did not expect Tianlin to be so outstanding that he actually obtained the qualification for the God Test, which made him firm in his determination.
Now, he has further improved the plan. Of course, he does not want to use the power of God to complete the plan, which would make Tianlin commit too much killing.
Decisiveness in killing and indiscriminate killing of innocents are always two different things.
But as long as Tianlin completes the God Test, then even if his plan fails, at least Ning Rongrong and Tianlin will be fine, and they can still live a very happy life. After all, no matter how strong the Spirit Hall and the two empires are, what can they do to a god? This can be regarded as a little selfishness as a father.
"Xiao Tian, your surname is Jun, and your name is Tianlin. To reign over the world is your mission. You say you don't understand governance, but why must you be born knowing it? In fact, when you said that those in power should enjoy more and give more, you already have the qualifications to reach the top." Ning Fengzhi looked at the sky and said to himself.
Back at Seven Treasure Mountain, all the events came to an end, and the Sect continued its vigorous reconstruction.
During this period, the Spirit Hall issued a statement to the outside world, stating that the long-term peaceful pattern formed by Douluo Continent cannot be easily broken. The Spirit Hall will investigate the mysterious forces that attacked the two Sects to the end, and hopes that the two Sects will temporarily extinguish Thunder's Wrath and not easily cause waves again.
The implied subtext is that although it was my Spirit Hall that caused trouble this time, you are also fine. We have suffered enough losses, and this matter ends here. If your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family are still relentless, then we can only fight to the death. Once the pattern is broken, don't think you can get any benefits! The Spirit Hall's losses this time were too great, and they need at least several years to lick their wounds before they can gradually recover their strength. This is exactly what Tianlin wants, and what he needs most is time.
He has now broken through level seventy, and his cultivation speed is astonishingly fast. The time it takes for the Spirit Hall to recover its strength is enough for him to break through to Titled Douluo, and he can also take advantage of this time to complete the God Test as much as possible, and start the God Creation Plan for Ning Rongrong.
He is not yet aware of Ning Fengzhi's extreme plan 2, but his idea is correct, no matter what kind of plan, strength is the key to successful execution.
Two months have passed, and the reconstruction of Seven Treasure City has been basically completed. After all, everyone here is a Soul Master, and the amount of work they do in a day is far from comparable to ordinary people.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect quickly returned to its prosperous appearance. While they were rebuilding their homes, the continent at this time seemed calm on the surface, but in fact, there were undercurrents surging in the dark.
The Heaven Dou Empire has mobilized a large number of blacksmiths. Needless to say, it must be to forge Tang San's Hidden Weapon. This is the fastest way for Tang San to prove his worth, and it is also the first step for him to return to the Sect.
Just when the Heaven Dou Empire was trying its best to win over the Upper Three Sects, the Spirit Hall also took action against the various large and small Sects on the continent, but this time they did not do it openly, but sent people from the Four Sects to coerce and lure them.
In the original story, the reason they could hold the Seven Great Sects Re-election Conference was because one of the original Three Upper Sects had gone into seclusion, one was destroyed, and one was severely damaged.
But now, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family is intact, the Clear Sky Sect has re-emerged, and even without Tang Hao, the last battle with the Heaven Dou Empire saw six Titled Douluo appear. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's strength is even more unprecedentedly powerful. Although the number of Titled Douluo is not as high as the Clear Sky Sect, their actual combat power, led by Chen Xin, is far from comparable to the ordinary Titled Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect.
In front of these three behemoths, even if a new Three Upper Sects were re-elected, it would only be a laughing stock.
However, even without the Seven Great Sects Re-election Conference, the Spirit Hall's plan to incorporate small sects would not be abandoned, and would even become more aggressive, because the Soul Hunting Operation and Qian Renxue's infiltration plan had both failed. This last one must succeed.
The Spirit Hall can't deal with the Three Upper Sects for the time being, but can't they deal with these small forces? They don't even need to take action personally; the people from the Four Lower Sects are enough to handle it.
Some were simply unable to resist a powerful force and succumbed to pressure, while others were tempted by the benefits offered by the Spirit Hall. Countless small sects surrendered to the Spirit Hall one after another.
But the two great empires showed no reaction to the Spirit Hall's actions. Heaven Dou had just experienced a major upheaval and was wholeheartedly focused on restoring its strength, while Star Luo had fewer sects, and their main strength lay in their army.
Unbeknownst to them, the number of Soul Masters controlled by the Spirit Hall was constantly increasing. Although it was not as high as in the original story, it was definitely more than sixty percent of the entire Douluo Continent.
Bibi Dong is not good at governance, but her intelligence is definitely not weak. She decisively and temporarily stopped all plans targeting the two great empires and the Three Upper Sects, and instead focused all her attention on the small forces and unaffiliated Soul Masters that the empires rarely paid attention to.
Once these people are gathered, the next step will be small duchies and kingdoms. Their relationship with the Spirit Hall is already ambiguous. The Spirit Empire in the original story was able to field an army of tens of thousands of Soul Masters, plus six hundred thousand troops. Where did their resource supplies come from? They couldn't rely solely on the Spirit Hall's original financial resources, could they? In fact, they relied on the support of these nations.
Putting aside the issue of gender, the blackened Bibi Dong may not be a good emperor, but she is definitely a hero! Faced with such pressure, some small forces unwilling to surrender had no choice but to seek other ways out, including the Single Attribute Four Great Clans, who had deep-seated hatred for the Spirit Hall. Therefore, on this day, Huan Yin and Yu Feng and his wife came to the door again.
