Chapter 407: Fear of Insufficient Sacred Forbidden Weapons
“What brings you here in such a hurry?”
Netherworld Master furrowed his brows, looking at the hurried guard with displeasure on his face.
“Report to the Hall Master, just now the young master of the Li Family declared to the world that they will officially go to war with us!”
Upon hearing this, Jade Linglong and Netherworld Master both widened their eyes.
“What did you say?”
The two instinctively asked, meeting each other’s gaze and seeing the disbelief reflected in their eyes!
“How dare they? You can’t be joking!”
Netherworld Master’s breath grew heavy as he pressed towards the guard.
“I dare not lie, this matter has caused quite a stir and is well-known. Just go out and investigate a bit to know the truth!”
With a loud bang! Jade Linglong swung her jade hand, smashing the table before her into smithereens!
“A group of ants huddled together for warmth, truly unaware of their own insignificance!”
At this moment, she, as the current Hall Master, felt a deep sense of humiliation.
This was a blatant provocation; since the establishment of the Profound Sky Hall, no one had dared to be so arrogant.
Now Zhou Tong had openly declared war, wasn’t that a slap in her face!
With a thud!
Netherworld Master knelt on one knee, pledging loyalty, “All of this is the fault of my subordinates for not exterminating those ants at the first opportunity, allowing them the chance to become so arrogant!”
“In order to rectify this mistake, I am willing to personally lead the strong warriors under my command and annihilate the Li Family within a day!”
“No need for that!”
Jade Linglong waved her hand, her gaze becoming distant and profound as she said, “We’ve hidden for so many years; it is time to make a grand appearance. This time, we must proclaim the might of the Profound Sky Hall to the world!”
She took a deep breath, as if making a certain resolution, and continued, “Simply leading troops to destroy a small Li Family is far from enough to demonstrate our power. This time, we want the whole world to see what a dimensional strike looks like!”
Once these words were spoken, Netherworld Master’s pupils shook violently. He realized that the Hall Master was preparing for something big.
“We are willing to follow your orders and serve you!”
“Very well, for the destruction of the Li Family, I have formulated a three-step plan that will compel the world to bow down and return to us!”
Jade Linglong said proudly, unconsciously breaking into a smile as she seemed quite satisfied with her plan.
“My subordinate is all ears!”
“Step one, use the Heavenly Dao Image to allow everyone to witness our process of destroying the Li Family directly.”
“Step two, sound the gathering drum, summon those forces loyal to us, and attract the world’s attention. I will personally step forward to announce the emergence of the Profound Sky Hall and issue the order to annihilate the Li Family!”
“Step three, destroy the Li Family before the eyes of the entire world!”
At this statement, Netherworld Master trembled all over.
This was indeed an exceedingly high-profile appearance ceremony. If it went smoothly, the prestige of the Profound Sky Hall could instantaneously return to its peak, becoming an existence comparable to the Enforcers.
Though he could understand the first two steps, the third step left much room for negotiation.
“I have one thing unclear; how do we swiftly annihilate the Li Family?”
Jade Linglong’s expression was content, as if she had been waiting for him to ask this question.
“If you were to lead the team, how long would it take to uproot the Li Family?”
This question plunged Netherworld Master into deep thought.
“One day is enough!”
After a moment, he cautiously replied, but saw Jade Linglong chuckle and shake her head.
“Perhaps half a day could work…”
“That’s still too slow!”
“Uh… three hours? Isn’t that a bit excessive?”
Netherworld Master displayed a difficult expression. He knew the Profound Sky Hall was at least five thousand miles away from the Li Family; by the time he gathered his troops and arrived, it would likely take longer than three hours.
“That’s still too slow. In my view, half an hour is sufficient!”
Jade Linglong’s words were startling, like a bolt from the blue, leaving Netherworld Master speechless.
“Hall Master… are you serious? That seems impossible!”
He shook his head vigorously, unable to comprehend how such a miracle could be achieved.
“Your vision is too narrow. Do you know about the Void Breaking Sacred Forbidden Weapon?”
Upon hearing these words, Netherworld Master straightened up, suddenly enlightened.
That kind of thing was simply an unfathomable existence; although it could only be used once, its power was devastating.
Even more terrifying was that this item could kill enemies from miles away. Once activated, it would soar spontaneously across the void, moving at incredible speeds, almost impossible to stop.
Once it reached its target, the Sacred Forbidden Weapon would unleash all its destructive power, being several times more horrifying than a Sacred Artifact self-exploding. In extreme circumstances, just one or two shots could devastate a mid-level power!
“I see now. I didn’t expect the Hall Master would use such a deadly weapon against a mere Li Family. Is it worth it?”
“It’s worth it. We must demonstrate our strength to the world, and naturally, we should use the most terrifying means. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be enough to intimidate hearts!”
Once these words were spoken, Netherworld Master decisively agreed.
Such a trump card would be something that even the strong warriors of the Central Continent had never seen or heard of. If revealed in front of everyone, it would certainly give them a sense of dimensional suppression!
Even the Enforcers would be no exception!
“The Hall Master is wise, but I still have one question to ask; how many Void Breaking Sacred Forbidden Weapons do we have?”
Upon hearing this, Jade Linglong couldn’t help but raise the corner of her mouth, slowly extending three fingers.
“Thirty in total!”
Netherworld Master couldn’t help but gasp in shock; even he felt his scalp go numb upon hearing this number.
This was too terrifying. The foundational strength of the Profound Sky Hall was indeed well-deserved; these Void Breaking Sacred Forbidden Weapons were enough to destroy ten Li Families! With these to intimidate, who would dare to resist under heaven?
“You just need to know that. Hurry and carry out my arrangements!”
“Yes, my command!”
Netherworld Master jumped up like a gust of wind, eagerly rushing to organize this globally noteworthy event!
“Dog servant!”
Watching the figure leave, Jade Linglong lightly scolded.
However, as she thought of stepping on the Li Family and becoming the ruler of the world, she couldn’t help but let out a light snicker.
…
At this time, the Li Family was bustling with activity.
After the war declaration was sent out, Zhou Tong was busy laying formations.
In a battle between two armies, the most important thing is to avoid being defeated while waiting for the enemy to be vulnerable.
This means minimizing your own flaws while waiting for the opponent to reveal theirs, before delivering a fatal blow.
Thus, with the financial support of the Empress and the contributions of treasures from various sects, they finally completed the construction of the Guardian Great Formation.
However, due to the time constraints, the grade of the formation was somewhat low, only at Level Nine, but it was barely adequate.
Other than Zhou Tong, the others didn’t think so, especially the people from the Bai Family who refined formations.
The head of the Bai Family was in tears, almost kneeling to request apprenticeship. If it weren’t for Bai Family’s young lady holding him back, he would have truly done so.
It was a joke; completing a Level Nine formation in less than half a day was simply the work of a god of formations!
Once the formation was activated, Zhou Tong crossed his arms and watched, feeling something was still missing.
The means of defense were in place, but what about the means of attack?
It couldn’t be that they were only allowed to be struck while unable to fight back, right?
“This still depends on me!”
Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed in his mind.
“What idea do you have? Speak up.”
“An Enhanced Version of the Void Breaking Sacred Forbidden Weapon, equipped with a Split-type Talisman of Destruction. Does this sound feasible?!”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Tong suddenly slapped his forehead.
“I just remembered; we dug up the ancestral grave of the Profound Sky Hall and unearthed so many Sacred Remains. We should put them to good use now.”
He then asked, “How many such Void Breaking Sacred Forbidden Weapons do we have in total?”
The mirror remained silent, only displaying a hand gesture on its surface.
“Thirty?”
“No, three hundred!”
“Tsk tsk…”
Zhou Tong shook his head, unable to suppress a sigh. “Isn’t that a bit too few?”
