The Strongest System - chapter-1110
Heaven and Earth Sect!
After letting them down, Lin Fan rushed right over to the deepest parts
of the sect. Right now, the Heaven and Earth Sect was in a hectic mess
from head to toe — it was as though all of them were busy preparing for
war. This was something that none of them had ever encountered ever since
they had entered the sect.
In the deepest area of the sect…
“Where have you been to the entire time?” Right now, Geng Yangtian
was totally overwrought with chores. Out of the nine major sects, the
Good and Evil Buddha Sect had actually colluded with the side of the Moon
Shadow Mainland!
Nine sects, six residences, three holes, and seventy two gangs…
Even though those seventy two gangs were in no way comparable to major
sects like the Heaven and Earth Sect, they were still a rather formidable
force. But, who would have thought that half of that potent force was
already slain by the Good and Evil Buddha Sect! Not only that, everything
was but the work of a single person — the Boundless Future Buddha Lord.
In the hands of the Boundless Future Buddha Lord, the seventy two gangs
had no chance at all, and were just mowed down by him with a completely
overwhelming brute force. This was quite the considerable loss for the
side of the Endless Mainland.
“It’s a long story. I had met some trouble. But, what’s the
situation with the Endless Mainland right now? On the way back, I passed
by the ruins of many sects out there. Has it really gotten to an
irrevocable state?” Lin Fan did not know just how the situation had
developed entirely. However, he could guess that it shouldn’t be
anything normal.
“Out of the nine sects, the Good and Evil Buddha Sect is colluding with
the side of the Moon Shadow Sect. Because of that, half of the seventy
two gangs had been destroyed. For now, the situation can be considered as
being somewhat stabilized. We Immortal Kings have stood out and lai down
a line of defense, rendering the people of the Moon Shadow Mainland
incapable of infiltrating us for now. However, in my personal opinion,
things aren’t looking all that optimistic just yet. There’s no
avoiding the huge war that’s going to break out. At this moment,
one-fourth of the Endless Mainland’s territory has already been
occupied by the Moon Shadow Mainland. At the same time, some of those
small sects have either been destroyed or have defected and bowed down to
the might of the Moon Shadow Mainland. Things are truly not optimistic at
all.” Geng Yangtian explained.
“To think that it would be this serious.” Lin Fan’s brows furrowed,
not expecting that things would have come down to such a state.
At that moment, Han Juntian appeared. “This is not all there is. The
cultivation system of those people from the Moon Shadow Mainland is
entirely different from what we have here. The most horrifying amongst
them are those Necromancers, who can manipulate and control the dead
corpses. As long as a single disciple of the Endless Mainland is lost,
that just means that the Moon Shadow Mainland gains an additional bit of
power.”
“Grandmaster, have you recovered?” Catching sight of Han Juntian, Lin
Fan let out a smile.
“Yes…My Immortal King state has already stabilized. You must work
hard as well so that you can enter the Immortal King state as soon as
possible. That is the only way that you can have the capabilities of
protecting yourself in this upcoming war.”
Lin Fan chuckled out as his heart skipped with joy. But, he decided not
to tell them just yet. When there was a chance, he’d give them a huge,
huge surprise.
Sweeping his robes, Geng Yangtian produced an image up in the void.
“Some time ago, I was engaged in a furious duel with some of the Master
Gods of the Moon Shadow Mainland. The powers of those Master Gods are not
to be underestimated. Even though their cultivation states are similar to
our Immortal Kings, there’s a number of them who possess a strength
that’s even stronger than our Immortal Kings. They are equivalent to
our veteran Immortal Kings, the same level as me. While there are many
Immortal Kings in the Endless Mainland compared to the Moon Shadow
Mainland, the difference in strength is still pretty apparent. The
situation has even worsened with the Boundless Future Buddha Lord joining
their side right now. That puts our Endless Mainland in a really bad
state.”
“I believe that the Endless Mainland should have Ancient Immortal
Kings, right?” Lin Fan asked.
The Endless Mainland was such a huge place, vast like the endless oceans.
There was absolutely no way there weren’t any top powerful beings out
there.
“Yes… Based on what I know, there’s an Ancient Immortal King that
resides in the Truth Sacred Grounds, someone who tops every single
ranking amongst all the Immortal Kings of the entire Endless Mainland.
His cultivation state is absolutely ground-breaking and incredible to
even imagine. Back when I had just joined the Heaven and Earth Sect, he
was already an Immortal King.” Geng Yangtian wasn’t worried, because
he knew that there were also existences that could compare with the
Boundless Future Buddha Lord in the Endless Mainland. Now that the
Endless Mainland was on the brink of such danger, there was no way they
would just sit by idly and watch.
“In my opinion, the situation right now calls for us to preserve our
strength first. Even though those minor and small sects may not be able
to help out too much, we must not shut our eyes to those that are dying.
If we were to let those of the Moon Shadow Mainland mow everyone over,
those disciples would be turned into Undead Spirits by those
Necromancers. By then, that would pose yet another problem for us.” Lin
Fan said.
Geng Yangtian nodded his head. “Indeed. I’ve already had some of my
junior brothers go and seek out those minor sects. We can only hope that
we can manage to preserve their legacies.”
“What is the Kunlun God Sect’s response to this?” Lin Fan asked.
Slightly taken aback, Geng Yangtian chuckled soon after, “Even though
White Saint was infuriated in his heart, he isn’t someone who is
incapable of recognizing the big picture. He too knows that what the
Endless Mainland is facing right now is a grave danger. I’ve already
spoken to him. For this period of time, we’re going to let go of every
single grudge and hatred we have and stand together to push back the
enemies. Once everything is settled and done with, we’ll then slowly
deal with our own issues.”
Upon hearing those words, Lin Fan was somewhat surprised, feeling it to
be inconceivable. To think that White Saint of the Kunlun God Sect would
be someone who was so understanding toward the situation. That was a
truly startling fact.
With that, Lin Fan could not help but feel that this White Saint was a
rather decent old man.
“That’s good then. Given the current situation, I’m afraid I may
not be of much help as well. For all the stuff about gathering troops and
building up defensive formations, I still have to depend on you guys. The
most I can possibly do is just to raise my strength as much as
possible.” Lin Fan said.
Even though his current strength was that of an Immortal King right now,
compared to those people like the Boundless Future Buddha Lord and
whatnot, there was still that much of a difference. If he wanted to raise
his strength, he would have to do so by rapidly filling up the experience
points required for him to level up from the Immortal King state to the
Heavenly Lord state. No matter the eventual outcome of how things would
turn out by then, that was someone that Lin Fan would only know once he
was there.
Geng Yangtian and Han Juntian nodded their heads. This was probably the
best idea right now.
“What sort of a place is this Truth Sacred Grounds? I do have half a
mind of wanting to check it out.” Lin Fan asked.
“It’s somewhere in the extreme eastern area. There’s a tall tower
that extends all the way into the clouds over there, and that is none
other than the Truth Scared Grounds.” Geng Yangtian replied. Lin
Fan’s intention of wanting to head over to the Truth Scared Grounds was
not that bad of an idea either. Perhaps he could have those Ancient
Immortal Kings step out of their hermit lives earlier… That would
certainly help to reduce the needless casualties in the Endless Mainland.
The powerful beings on the side of the Moon Shadow Mainland were simply
way too many. The sheer numbers they possessed were extremely incredulous
and downright horrifying.
At the end of the day, the determining factor of victory for the war
still boiled down to strength. However, if the Endless Mainland were to
sustain considerable losses and countless of deaths, that might end up
exhausting all of their resources.
Lin Fan did not linger for much further. Entering the void, he rushed
over to the extreme east.
‘Truth Scared Grounds… Hmm…’
Lin Fan had to see for himself just what sort of beings those Ancient
Immortal Kings would be.
…
The Truth Scared Grounds existed within a danger ground in itself. This
wasn’t a place that ordinary people would be able to arrive at.
That tower extended all the way into the clouds, standing erect between
the Heaven and Earth. In the surroundings of the tower was an aura of
Truth exuding out constantly. It was as though every single bit of Truth
from the Heaven and Earth was being spread out from this place right here.
“Boundless Future Buddha Lord, since you’ve come, do come out then.”
At that moment, a voice traveled out from within that tall tower.
“Amitabha!”
Instantly, the void was filled with a bright flash of a Buddha light.
Extending out like banners, an endless amount of Buddha lights appeared
behind the back of the Boundless Future Buddha Lord.
Seated cross-legged on that lotus seat of his, the gigantic body of the
Boundless Future Buddha Lord floated gently within the void. His eye
shone with a cheery glint as he looked at that tall tower which possessed
the only Truth in the entire universe.
“Hais! It’s been such a long time now, and you’ve yet to let it go.
If you were able to let it go, there is no doubt that you would be the
first person to enter the Heavenly Lord state.” The Truth Immortal King
lamented.
The Boundless Future Buddha Lord gave a muffled laugh, “Truth Immortal
King, cut the crap! Regarding the Calamity of the Endless Mainland this
time around, what do you think about it?”
At the moment when the Boundless Future Buddha Lord spoke out those
words, it seemed as though the entire void around him had frozen solid.
If the Truth Immortal King wanted to interfere in this affair, the only
welcome he would receive would be nothing but death.
