NOVEL WEB Chapter 539 Conquest
Now that the four of them are stealthily hiding in the periphery, Mo Yi naturally couldn't deploy her Life-bound Grand Array.
Thus, she secretly unleashed the power of the Blood River, penetrating little by little from underground.
The vast Blood River directly turned into a sea of blood, seeping towards the battlefield from deep beneath the ground.
As for the Demon Souls in the Emperor Banner, Mo Yi had not released a single one yet.
The aura emitted by these creatures was extremely sinister and easily recognizable.
For now, they did not wish to be detected by the allied army or the people of the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty.
While the Blood Sea infiltrated, Mo Yi intended to envelop the entire underground.
Once the battlefield reached its intense phase, she could secretly guide the blood spilled on the ground to merge with the Blood Sea, amplifying the power of her Emperor Banner.
Stealthy as mice, don't fire a gun.
There's no rush for now; it's fine as long as the infiltration is complete when the battle turns grisly.
"I think Liu Shengnan and Zhu Wu won't be able to suppress Yongzheng much longer."
Liu Yiqing observed the situation on the battlefield through a mirror, especially focusing on Yongzheng for the longest time.
This King, his fighting power was truly astonishing, completely dominating and battling against Liu Shengnan and Zhu Wu.
It goes to show, the fact that he could suppress the opposition in such a short time reveals that Yongzheng's combat strength far surpasses that of Liu Shengnan and Zhu Wu.
"It's only just begun; Liu Shengnan and Zhu Wu still have their treasured items up their sleeves, just you watch."
Ying Xueji and the other three had countless trump cards. Despite being pressured now, Zi Liyuan believed that as long as they were willing to pay a certain price, they could easily draw with Yongzheng.
Keep in mind that when Zi Liyuan last faced the four of them, his Spirit had issued him a warning.
It was a warning of a fatal threat.
This fully demonstrated that the trump cards Ying Xueji and the others held were capable of leading him to death's door!
You should know that during the last major battle, Zi Liyuan was already able to activate his bloodline talent.
The inheritance of the Underworld King combined with the Law of Death, and with the amplification from his bloodline talent, enabled Zi Liyuan to skip a Rank, effortlessly killing his enemies.
But when facing Ying Xueji and the other three of the same rank, the warnings from his Spirit were truly a lethal threat.
Even now, as Zi Liyuan peered through the mirror at Ying Xueji and the others, his Spirit still warned him.
Even though the warnings weren't as intense as before, they still conveyed a feeling of a fatal threat.
This meant that even though Ying Xueji and the others were still at the Sixth Tier Legendary peak, they could still pose a threat to someone like him at the initial stages of the Seventh Grade Sanctum!
You could imagine how terrifying the heritage of the Four Ancient Empires really was.
"Li Yuan, aren't you afraid that once we move to the second layer of the Sea of Realms, we will be targeted by Tang Ming and the Two Ancient Empires?"
Shen Yurou asked softly.
"I never planned to develop on the territories of these two Ancient Empires."
From the very beginning, Zi Liyuan had no intention of establishing his influence on someone else's territory after entering the second layer of the Sea of Realms.
Keep in mind, even the later-established Great Ming Ancient Empire had developed for at least a millennium on the second layer of the Sea of Realms.
During this long period, they not only withstood the invasions of the Alien Races from the Sea of Realms but also strengthened and expanded their own empire.
Complex powers were intertwined within, and it was not something that someone with no backing, like him, could meddle with.
Thus, from the start, Zi Liyuan was prepared to immediately ride Xiao Guang out of the territory of the Blue Star Human Race and develop elsewhere as soon as he entered the second layer of the Sea of Realms.
As for a Lord being able to ascend with his territory, Zi Liyuan, upon first entering, definitely wouldn't ascend his territory right away.
He had no desire to be snatched away and divided by the great powers above.
From the beginning, Zi Liyuan was prepared for all eventualities.
More so, he wasn't in a hurry to enter the second layer of the Sea of Realms.
Keep in mind that Christie Barbosa, who had become his woman, had a planet waiting for him to conquer.
A planet in the Lower Realm was an endless source of population.
As long as he took it, he could rely on that planet to accumulate a wealth of heritage.
At the very least, when it came to talents, they would not be far behind the Four Ancient Empires.
With the talents in place and enough resources seized from within the Sea of Realms, developing powers would become much easier.
As it stands, the Four Ancient Empires are being suppressed bit by bit precisely because their pool of talents is sharply declining without replenishment.
It's no surprise they harbor animosity towards the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty for causing this situation.
"Do we even have the strength to expand and chart new territories when the time comes?"
Even Liu Yiqing, as strong-willed as she was, felt some uncertainty at this moment.
Venturing out to build up from the territory of the Blue Star Human Race as newcomers who just stepped into the second layer of the Sea of Realms.
Did they truly have the strength to carve out new lands for the Blue Star Human Race?
"The strength ceiling of the second layer of the Sea of Realms is merely that of the Great Emperor, and even Demigods are restricted.
Once I enter, I'll seize a huge batch of resources first, elevate the Lord's Mansion to LV79, then I can quickly reach the peak of the Seventh Grade Sanctum!
By then, fighting beyond my tier, even Great Emperors may not be able to block me."
Zi Liyuan's eyes were profound, and for the first time, he shared some of his plans with his women.
