Chapter 971: The Real Disaster, a Familiar Figure (2)
If several actions are executed simultaneously, it inevitably becomes challenging.
Therefore, the Time Administration Bureau issues bounty notices to the outside world, promising generous rewards to enlist people outside the Bureau to work for them.
The goal of Supreme Wisdom is to seize the Heart of Energy of Atlantis, while he aims to obtain the Heart of Energy of Earth 723.
After resigning from the Time Administration Bureau, he made every effort to come to Earth 723, and first hid himself.
The place where he hid was Shenzhou, where he witnessed the rise and fall of the Shenzhou Dynasty over hundreds of years in the darkness.
At that time, it was the end of the Xi Dynasty, and severe drought descended from heaven, the people lived in misery, the emperor was foolish and incompetent, excessively extracting the fat and oil of the people, causing widespread public resentment.
Led by many Jianghu people, grassroots organizations resisting the Imperial Court appeared across the country.
Thus began the most chaotic period in Shenzhou's history.
Numerous countries coexisted, countless large and small wars occurred.
The people who survived the natural disasters also perished under the relentless blades of the feudal lords competing for power.
Great Ancestor Ning Xiang Xuan was born in such circumstances.
He came from a humble background with low status, not a descendant of nobles, just an ordinary commoner.
However, it truly seemed to confirm the saying—
The wind rises at the end of a green plain.
The waves form beneath the subtle ripples.
On Xiang Xuan's path to saving Shenzhou, loyal ministers followed, and various heroes assisted.
He successfully ended the century-long chaotic era, established the Tianqi Era, and founded the nation of Daning.
From then on, the first emperor of the Ning Dynasty, Emperor of Heavenly Inception, unfolded the majestic curtain of Ning Dynasty's rule over Shenzhou for more than three hundred years.
Although subsequent emperors of the Ning Dynasty were far inferior to the Grand Ancestor, they still managed to exert efforts toward governance, until Zhaozong's father, Wei Zong, being ignorant and foolish, coupled with the internal and external barbarians coveting power, Shenzhou Land Continent faced the possibility of fragmentation once again.
Ning Zhaozong, accused of patricide and fratricide, dealt swiftly and forcefully with rebellious forces within the court and repelled external barbarians, quelling the decade-long strife.
Zhaozong established the era name "Qianhe," also known as Emperor Qianhe.
The Ning Dynasty resurrected and continued its splendid legacy.
After Princess Yongning entered the East Palace, she further pushed Ning Dynasty's rule to its peak.
At that time, even the Sky Tower Master never doubted that Ning Dynasty might become the first dynasty in Shenzhou capable of lasting a thousand years.
But Princess Yongning died.
She died merely a step away from ascending to the Emperor's throne.
One step short, heaven and earth reversed.
Even with Princess Jingan assisting Emperor Yongshun, they couldn't defy time.
The Battle of Ten Thousand Armies descended, ending the Ning Dynasty.
For three hundred years, Shenzhou barely survived while the Global Center flourished splendidly.
This was precisely what Sky Tower Master wanted to see.
Shenzhou Land Continent is the center of Earth 723, possessing immensely strong national fate and a vast Dragon Vein.
As long as Shenzhou falters, obtaining the Heart of Energy of Earth 723 would be a simple matter.
He endured humiliation for over three hundred years just for this day.
With success within reach, how could he possibly give up?
Now, he's even stronger than Supreme Wisdom at his peak, and he fears no one on Earth 723!
"Tower Master..." Modi hesitated for a moment, then spoke, "Previously, you confirmed Princess Yongning and Master of Highest Heaven Tower were alive, we believe... Ye Wanlan must be Princess Yongning, and Jidao Sect Leader is Master of Highest Heaven Tower."
"Oh?" Sky Tower Master seemed slightly surprised, then snorted coldly, "They are indeed deeply hidden, even I didn't notice, but Earth 723 is destined to perish, even if they join forces, what can they do?"
He has a card unknown to anyone, unrivaled in the world.
Sky Tower Master hopes Ye Wanlan and Yan Tingfeng don't force him to use this card, or else no one will benefit.
"Being out of retreat, the Global Center naturally listens to my command!" Sky Tower Master ordered coldly, "Today, have all Roundtable Conference members come to see me, or else... hmph!"
Don't blame him for being unkind!
"Yes, Tower Master." Modi replied respectfully, "Your words, will certainly be conveyed thoroughly."
**
"Sister YN, something's happened!" Yeh Xingli hurried to the prison, his voice extremely grave, "Sky Tower Master is out of retreat and has just issued an order for us to go to Heaven-reaching Tower to meet him."
Ye Wanlan was looking at the three corpses lying on the ground.
By now, all the enemies invading Shenzhou have been utterly destroyed.
"Yes, I know." Ye Wanlan took a handkerchief and wiped the blood off her fingertips, "This is a banquet with hostile intentions."
"Certainly!" Yeh Xingli was excited, "Estelle brought news that Sky Tower Master's strength has greatly increased, and the cultivation levels of the seven angels under him have improved significantly too; it's not an invitation, it's a command."
