Chapter 1372 1372: Gathering at the Rhodes Peninsula!
After being defeated by Qin Feng, Bai had been pondering over this issue.Later, he finally realized that he had been deceived!
Qin Feng's high-tech "glasses" could see through his illusion techniques, so he should not have compared illusions with him; direct competition in strength was the simplest and most straightforward method.
Although Qin Feng's strength could match his Spirit King Realm power,
the difference in cultivation was vast. As long as he delayed, Qin Feng would be defeated.
Such a simple problem, yet he was focused on showing his illusions to him and fell into his trap!
Cultivation!
Everything was a matter of cultivation!
That is the root cause!
"Elder, please grant me a Returning God Pill. Once I recover my strength, I will definitely defeat Qin Feng!!"
Bai pleaded.
"Ha!"
The Ninth Elder snorted coldly and said, "Do you know how precious the Returning God Pill is, you idiot? We had high hopes for you because of your talent, and it wasn't easy to secure a spot for you, but you didn't join the competition for the Xumi Land like the other inheritors to prove yourself. Instead, you went to find that waste Qin Feng and even lost to him in the end!"
"...In my eyes, only Qin Feng is the greatest threat."
Bai said.
"Useless fool!!"
The Ninth Elder kicked him directly in the chest.
Bai spat out blood with a "pfft," his whole body wracked with intense pain.
"You actually think that waste is a threat? I've really misjudged you; you are the real waste!!" The Ninth Elder said, getting angrier, lifting a chair and slamming it heavily on him with a "bang," then picked up a table and continued to smash him...
The beating went on for over ten minutes until Bai was a bloody mess, lying on the ground like a pile of mud before the Ninth Elder stopped.
He wiped the sweat off his forehead, sat down, and sipped tea, his anger mostly dissipated.
Bai struggled to get up but had no strength left. With difficulty, he said, "El-Elder, please, give me one more chance, I must defeat him..."
The Ninth Elder disdainfully waved his hand and told his subordinates, "Throw this waste out of the gate of Heavenly King Mountain."
Soon, silence fell over the hall.
A confidant said on the side, "Elder, I heard he awakened 'Illusion Heart' and even broke through to the Spirit King Realm. Shouldn't we... keep him?"
"Hmph!"
The Ninth Elder squinted his eyes, filled with resentment.
How could he not want to cultivate someone with the "Heart" at such a young age and already a Spirit King Realm powerhouse?
But before, when Bai was brought back by Old Fu and had sent a humiliating video to all the high-ranking officials of Heavenly King Mountain, in a fit of rage, he shattered Bai's already severely injured Dantian.
It was only later, at a meeting, through the words of Zhenwu Heavenly King, that he learned of Bai's cultivation level.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
A shattered Dantian would require extensive resources to recover, perhaps even necessitating the use of a Returning God Pill.
Now, after years of continuous fighting,
the resources of Heavenly King Mountain were somewhat depleted. The Ninth Elder couldn't bear to give such a high-level Elixir to anyone; he wanted to keep it for himself.
After all, with the current unpredictable times, who knew what might happen tomorrow?
Therefore, it was impossible to save him.
Moreover, the blow that shattered Bai's Dantian was his doing.
Using the invaluable Returning God Pill to save him would be his own folly!
It's better to just throw him out of sight, so it's out of mind!
At this point.
Someone came in to report, "Ninth Elder, the Great Elder has called for a meeting."
"Understood!"
The Ninth Elder flicked his sleeve and disappeared like the wind, heading to the main castle meeting room.
The meeting had been going on for three days.
The discussion remained focused on the issue of Qin Feng.
...
Outside Heavenly King Mountain.
Qin Feng arrived early, waiting outside.
A few days ago, when he and Old Fu were coming and going to Heavenly King Mountain, he had Xiao Lian arrange people to choose a group from Heavenly King Palace to go overseas to prepare for a Round Table Conference a week later.
After breaking through to Ninth Grade Grandmaster, Qin Feng had Xiao Lian call Xiao Wu over as he had something for her to do.
Soon.
Behind a large tree outside, Qin Feng met Xiao Lian and Xiao Wu.
"How are the preparations coming along?" he asked.
"They are almost complete. As you instructed earlier, we selected 30,000 people each from Qinling, Changbai Mountain, and Shu Mountain to come overseas, awaiting orders at Rhodes Peninsula."
"And previously, the various combat groups, aside from Wang Zanggu's Eight Hundred Blade Team, the Po Jun Team under Zhiyun's responsibility, the Dragon Slayer Team under Hong Lian's responsibility, the Star Battle Group under Yu Xing'er's responsibility, the Fire Phoenix Team under Hua Yun's responsibility, the Ten Thousand Beast Group under Lu Xiaoyue's responsibility, along with Tan Xiao Monk, Phoenix, Old Drunkard, and the Ai Yeqing Earthly Evil Group, have all temporarily merged into one comprehensive team, code name 'Divine Dragon'!"
Xiao Lian replied.
The members of the Fire Phoenix Team were all talented women selected from Red Fire Palace, originally led by Qingcheng.
But now Qingcheng had broken through to become a Spirit King, becoming combat-ready.
So the Fire Phoenix Team had Qingcheng's subordinate, Hua Yun, take charge.
The Ten Thousand Beast Group was newly formed, after Lu Hanqing brought the Lion Tiger Order and Soul of Ten Thousand Beasts back to Five Rings Mountain, then back to Longshan, to cultivate some very powerful Spiritual Beasts and Demon Beasts.
This batch of Demon Beasts was led by Lu Hanqing's sister, Lu Xiaoyue.
After all, Lu Hanqing needed to stay on Longshan to continue using the Soul of Ten Thousand Beasts to strengthen the Lion Tiger Sect.
In the Earthly Evil Group, Qingyi and Ziyi went to Heavenly Mountain Snow Peak to protect Bing Chenzi, while the other members also came.
However, Wang Zanggu's Razor Group did not come.
They were exhausted after a battle on Kunlun Mountain, and someone needed to stay guard at Five Rings Mountain, so it was an opportunity for them to rest.
In total.
For the Round Table Conference, Qin Feng had mobilized 90,000 people from Heavenly King Palace!
"Very good!"
Qin Feng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then let Phoenix escort you back to Rhodes Peninsula, while Ai Yeqing and Xiao Wu stay behind."
It wasn't just Xiao Lian and Xiao Wu who came.
Because Xiao Lian had no cultivation, Ai Yeqing and Phoenix were arranged to protect her personally.
"By the way."
Xiao Lian responded and then added, "By the way, Nichen from Kunlun also needs to arrange to come over."
"Ah? Why??"
Upon hearing Nichen, Qin Feng felt uneasy.
When leaving Kunlun earlier, he had slipped away quietly to avoid getting "taken care of" by Ni Chang.
"She said that Kunlun had also joined under Heavenly King Palace, so why exclude them from the Round Table Conference?" Xiao Lian said.
"..."
Qin Feng was embarrassed and said, "Tell her that I already explained to her back when we were on Kunlun Mountain, it was just a ruse to have the Kunlun Sect pretend to join under Heavenly King Palace to complete certain tasks, but now that task is over, Kunlun Sect and Heavenly King Palace have no relationship."
"No, she said that you told her the sects on Kunlun Mountain had joined Heavenly King Palace and instructed them to first come under Kunlun Sect."
Xiao Lian said.
"..."
Qin Feng was bewildered again.
He only remembered hurriedly sneaking away from Ni Chang, and there were indeed many other sects on Kunlun Mountain that rushed to join out of fear of Ni Chang's revenge. To delay Ni Chang's pursuit, he casually told them to find the Kunlun Sect if they wanted to join.
Unexpectedly, they took it seriously!
