Chapter 906: Chapter 906: Heroes Plot Against Great Dazhen

"Holy King, leaving Luo Xingchen here, will it...?" Liu Wushuang showed a trace of concern.

"Make arrangements. From now on, Luo Xing Mansion will be his residence," Zhong Shan said.

"Uh?" Liu Wushuang was momentarily surprised but quickly understood Zhong Shan's meaning. Luo Xingchen was now part of Great Dazhen?

"Understood!" Liu Wushuang promptly responded.

Unbeknownst to many, Great Dazhen's strength had expanded once again. Not only had they gained Luo Xingchen, a peerless powerhouse, but the greatest harvest was the recent imperial examination. The Reincarnation Domain had attracted a large number of talents.

With proper training, these talents could be deployed to various regions, preparing for the next phase of expansion.

Five years later, in the court of Changjing.

"Report to the Holy King, in the southern Reincarnation Domain, Wuxiang Holy Court's Tianzi Mansion has suddenly seemed blessed by the heavens, destroying four great dynasties within five years!" Xiao Wang reported.

"Without any reason, how could Wuxiang Holy Court suddenly be 'blessed by the heavens'?" Zhong Shan asked, puzzled.

"According to scouts, a genius named 'Wang Jingwen' has emerged. His military strategies are divine, and his grasp of situations is extraordinarily precise. The campaign against the four great dynasties was executed flawlessly, leaving me in awe," Xiao Wang sighed.

"Wang Jingwen?" Zhong Shan frowned.

"Yes, Your Majesty. I have gathered extensive information about Wang Jingwen. Despite still being a mortal, he has become the top scholar of Wuxiang Holy Court!"

"Oh?"

"Wang Jingwen first appeared in a small southern town of the Reincarnation Domain one hundred eighty years ago, where he participated in a local exam and took first place. He then advanced to a major exam in an immortal city, winning the championship again. The city lord recommended him to take the imperial exam in Wuxiang Domain. This prodigious talent outshone eight renowned scholars, claiming the title of top scholar! Seven years ago, he arrived in the Reincarnation Domain. In just five years, he orchestrated a grand scheme that conquered the four great dynasties troubling Tianzi Mansion," Xiao Wang reported solemnly.

"Holy King, it seems we have a formidable rival in the south!" Xiao Wang said calmly.

Zhong Shan tapped the armrest of his dragon throne, seemingly lost in thought.

The court remained silent, awaiting the Holy King's decision.

"Enough."

With a final tap, Zhong Shan's finger stopped on the armrest. He looked at Xiao Wang, "Wang Jingwen is not to be worried about. Our target is to unify the northern Reincarnation Domain."

"Yes!" Xiao Wang responded immediately.

Internally, Xiao Wang was curious. Why was Wang Jingwen not a concern? How would the Holy King deal with such a genius opponent? Unable to grasp Zhong Shan's thoughts, Xiao Wang had no choice but to obey.

Since Zhong Shan had declared it, the ministers naturally followed his lead.

"How are the front lines?" Zhong Shan asked again.

Xiao Wang stepped back into the line, and Yi Yan stepped forward.

"Report to the Holy King, of the eight great dynasties on the front lines, three have already been destroyed by others. One dynasty even exterminated another and presented their king's head to us as a token of submission. The remaining three dynasties are also on the verge of collapse. I believe this is the critical moment. Our army can seize the opportunity to conquer the eight great dynasties! Thus, Great Dazhen will occupy one-fifth of the northern Reincarnation Domain!" Yi Yan reported solemnly.

"Approved!" Zhong Shan nodded.

With that single word, the entire landscape of the Reincarnation Domain shifted dramatically. The army of Great Dazhen, fierce as wolves and tigers, charged towards the former eight great dynasties.

Great Dazhen possessed the elite troops of a small thousand-world, and their generals were top-tier talents. After the imperial examinations, even more talents from the Reincarnation Domain were incorporated into their ranks.

The national beast, the wolf tribe, and the four great mythical beast clans—dragon, tiger, phoenix, and tortoise—were all under Great Dazhen's powerful influence, both in strange and righteous ways.

Crushing opposition effortlessly, the once-stalled Great Dazhen surged forward again, unstoppable.

In just six short years, Great Dazhen conquered the eight great dynasties, firmly establishing its position in the Reincarnation Domain. Now, Great Dazhen controlled one-fifth of the northern Reincarnation Domain, equating to one-tenth of the entire domain.

Good news arrived at the court daily, filling the officials with vigor, and Zhong Shan himself wore a satisfied smile.

In a grand palace in the northern Reincarnation Domain.

The hall was surrounded by numerous thrones.

There were sixteen dragon thrones and twelve other ornate seats.

A total of twenty-eight seats, each occupied by a person of imposing presence.

On the foremost throne sat an emperor in a purple robe.

"All of you here today are rulers of dynasties or leaders of holy lands. It is my great honor that you have come," said the emperor in the purple robe.

"Qingming Holy Emperor, since you've invited us, let's get straight to the point," said one of the holy land leaders.

The others nodded in agreement.

"Very well, let's get to the point. I think everyone here understands why I've called you. It's because of Great Dazhen," Qingming Holy Emperor said.

At the mention of Great Dazhen, almost everyone frowned slightly.

"Great Dazhen has destroyed four holy lands, eight great dynasties, and even the Time and Space Dojo! We all know this. Initially, none of us paid much attention to this holy court. But now we can see how powerful it has become. In just over thirty years since its founding, look at the immense achievements Great Dazhen has made," Qingming Holy Emperor said solemnly.

The crowd fell silent.

"Originally, this was a matter for our imperial dynasties, but Great Dazhen's ambitions are truly vast. They don't even spare merits, so I had no choice but to invite the leaders of the holy lands as well," Qingming Holy Emperor said.

"But what can we do?" one of the holy land leaders frowned.

"It's not about what we can do, but about the progress of Great Dazhen. Recently, they have been resting and recuperating. But once they regain their strength, will they remain dormant? You've all seen Great Dazhen's aggression. The longer we wait, the more dangerous it becomes for us!" Qingming Holy Emperor said.

The powerful figures all frowned, clearly troubled.

"To establish an imperial dynasty or create a holy land, one must be exceptionally proud and ambitious. Who among us is willing to bow down and become a vassal? Great Dazhen has too many talents and too much ambition. In the future, do you want to die in battle or submit?" Qingming Holy Emperor asked.

"Die in battle? Submit? Hmph!" one of the holy land leaders snorted coldly.

"This world is just like that: either we are the prey, or others are. Waiting passively for disaster to strike is not our style," Qingming Holy Emperor said.

"Qingming Holy Emperor, what exactly do you propose? Speak plainly!" another emperor demanded.

Qingming Holy Emperor glanced at everyone and said, "To wrest the world from Great Dazhen!"

To wrest the world from Great Dazhen? The expressions of the powerful figures changed. Although many had considered this, hearing it aloud was still a tremendous shock.

The room fell silent.

"Great Dazhen is not an easy target," one emperor shook his head.

Others nodded in agreement, reluctant to be the ones to provoke Great Dazhen. The previous eight dynasties that challenged Great Dazhen faced complete annihilation. Would they risk it now?

"Heh!" Qingming Holy Emperor let out a cold laugh.

"Hasn't anyone noticed? Everyone here shares a border with Great Dazhen. It's only a matter of time before we face disaster. How long do you plan to delay?" Qingming Holy Emperor said.

"You want us to wager our empires and holy lands, to gamble alongside you?" one emperor frowned.

All eyes turned to Qingming Holy Emperor.

Establishing their kingdoms had not been easy. To risk everything on a whim? They were not that eager.

With a slight smile, Qingming Holy Emperor shook his head, "This is a grand gamble, and even I don't wish to take such a risk. That's not what I'm suggesting."

"Oh?"

"What I propose is to eliminate Zhong Shan first, and then take on Great Dazhen!" Qingming Holy Emperor said.

"Eliminate Zhong Shan? How? The number one expert in the Reincarnation Domain, Luo Xingchen, was killed by Zhong Shan. Who could stand against him?" one holy land leader shook his head.

"The Time and Space Dojo? That was its fate, not Zhong Shan's doing. Zhong Shan has only been in the small thousand-world for over thirty years. Before the creation of the heavens and earth, he was likely just a mortal. Even if his current strength is formidable, how strong can he really be?" Qingming Holy Emperor analyzed.

"What about Luo Xingchen? Even someone as powerful as Luo Xingchen was defeated by Zhong Shan!"

"Do you really believe that?" Qingming Holy Emperor sneered.

"Huh?" Everyone was momentarily stunned.

Why wouldn't they believe it? It was known throughout the world!

"Have you not heard 'Even divine abilities cannot overcome fate'? Luo Xingchen possessed powerful time-based divine abilities, but time itself is not invincible. His defeat, in my estimation, was not due to Zhong Shan being stronger, but rather Zhong Shan having a specific ability to counter Luo Xingchen!" Qingming Holy Emperor explained.

"Oh?"

"This is the only explanation that makes sense. Otherwise, how could someone who has only been cultivating for thirty years surpass Luo Xingchen? If that were the case, we might as well stop cultivating and wait for Zhong Shan to slaughter us!" Qingming Holy Emperor said.

The hall fell into silence once more. Indeed, Luo Xingchen's defeat was perplexing, and Zhong Shan's capabilities were shrouded in mystery. Only this explanation made sense.

"Speak, what do you propose?" one holy land leader asked, while the others looked on.

Qingming Holy Emperor looked around at everyone and said firmly, "We must use all our resources to assassinate Zhong Shan! With careful planning and preparation, with the element of surprise, and with the elite forces of our sixteen dynasties and twelve holy lands, can we not succeed in assassinating a solitary Zhong Shan?"

Assassination? Some had already guessed, but others were still shocked to hear it.

"Gather fifty celestial experts from our sixteen dynasties and twelve holy lands. It shouldn't be difficult. A forceful ambush by fifty celestial experts—I'm sure that even if Luo Xingchen were alive, he wouldn't survive!" Qingming Holy Emperor said gravely.
