Volume 9: Nine Reincarnations Chapter 1251 The Attitudes of the Three
Because the domain lord and the four top forces did not step forward to deal with the matter, the defenders outside the North Star Domain did not dare to challenge the countless ferocious beasts in the entire North Star Domain, so there was no major war between the human race and the beastman race.
But as time passed, the number of fights near the North Star Region began to increase gradually. Ferocious beasts and cultivators often fought each other, causing constant friction and many casualties on both sides.
As friction continued to increase, the news that a thousand feet outside the North Star Region had become a forbidden area spread more and more widely, and soon the entire Tianchen Star Region knew about it. A large number of cultivators even dared not to move north.
On this day, two monks were fighting in the starry sky near the North Star Region. One of them suddenly displayed an extremely powerful magic, far exceeding the combat power he had just displayed, and instantly blasted the other one a long distance away.
Under the powerful impact, the cultivator immediately retreated rapidly, and in an instant he was suddenly rushed into the North Star Region within a thousand feet!
"You are so shameless!" Seeing the North Star Region approaching, the cultivator's face suddenly changed and he cursed in a deep voice. At the same time, he immediately forced himself to steady himself and prepared to get away from the North Star Region as quickly as possible.
He didn't expect that the other party had been hiding his strength before, just waiting for this moment, to push him back into the North Star Region within a thousand feet with one blow, and wanted to use the power of the ferocious beast to get rid of him!
Just as the monk was steadying himself, a giant red palm quickly covered the starry sky and suddenly slapped towards him, instantly causing a shocking muffled sound!
Bang !
The cultivator didn't even have time to utter a scream before he was shattered into pieces by the huge force of the red palm and died instantly!
This is just a microcosm. After knowing that a thousand feet outside the North Star Region is designated as a forbidden area, many cultivators have harbored malicious intentions and are willing to force their enemies directly into this area. There, powerful and ferocious beasts will attack on their behalf, allowing them to kill their enemies more easily.
Although the beastmen knew that they were being used by the human monks to kill people, they did not mind at all. They even seemed to enjoy this pleasure. As long as someone came within a thousand feet of the North Star Region, they would immediately take action.
Moreover, the beast that attacked was extremely powerful, and almost none of the cultivators who were blasted thousands of feet into the North Star Region were able to escape with their lives!
Because of this, the hatred between the monks and the ferocious beasts has intensified again.
The thousand-foot range outside the North Star Region was also avoided by many cultivators. Not to mention entering within that range, they didn't even dare to get close.
As frictions near the North Star Region increase, the defenders outside the North Star Region have been feeling considerable pressure, worrying that the orcs may launch an attack!
Because of this, the top leaders of the defending army are already trying to mobilize more powerful men to come and strive to have stronger strength.
A month later, a middle-aged man in armor entered Tianhai Star and flew directly to the Star Lord Continent where the Bai Clan was. When he arrived in front of the Bai Clan Palace, he said in a loud voice: "I am the elder of the Tianchen Guards. I have something important to discuss with the Lord of the Bai Clan!"
The Tianchen Garrison is the name of the garrison outside the North Star Region!
Tang Wu and the Bai clan ancestor immediately met him. The middle-aged man immediately explained his purpose: "In the Tianchen garrison, the three top forces each sent a Grand Elder of the Duyuan Realm. Now that the Bai clan has become the fourth top force, should they also send a Grand Elder?"
"I have heard the opinions of the three top forces. They believe that since the Bai tribe has become the fourth top force, they also need to fulfill this obligation!"
This matter was decided by the domain lord at that time. The three top forces needed to send out a Duyuan realm cultivator each to assist the Tianchen garrison in guarding the area and prevent sudden attacks from the ferocious beasts in the North Star Domain.
After hearing his words, Tang Wu fell silent for a moment, and then said that he would report the matter to the leader of the Bai tribe.
The middle-aged man then left the Bai tribe and did not see Li Xuanfeng, but he did not express any dissatisfaction.
He knew very well that although he came to the Bai tribe on behalf of the Tianchen garrison, his strength was only at the Perfection of the Palm Source Realm. It was a great courtesy for the Bai tribe to send Tang Wu, a cultivator at the Duyuan Realm, to receive him.
The leader of the Bai tribe is already a top figure in the star field, so naturally he would not personally meet a small figure like him. Perhaps he is also in seclusion.
After the middle-aged man left, Tang Wu immediately reported the matter to Li Xuanfeng.
Li Xuanfeng was silent for a moment, and did not immediately decide who to send to support the Tianchen garrison. Instead, he began to refine a secret treasure.
It was not until ten days later, after Li Xuanfeng had refined this secret treasure, that he walked out of the Star Lord's Palace and summoned Tang Wu, Sect Master Lieyan, and Sect Master Shura.
These are the only three Duyuan Realm cultivators in the Bai clan, besides Li Xuanfeng himself.
During these ten days, in addition to Tang Wu, Sect Master Lieyan and Sect Master Shura had also learned about the arrival of the Tianchen garrison, and had guessed the purpose of the Bai tribe's leader summoning them.
The three of them entered the patriarch's palace one after another. Tang Wu was the closest, so he was naturally the first to arrive. He had already taken a seat and was waiting on the side.
On the way here, Sect Master Lieyan and Sect Master Shura felt a lot of anxiety in their hearts. They had both heard about the recent instability in the North Star Region.
They knew very well in their minds that the ferocious beasts in the North Star Region seemed to have shown signs of attacking the human race. If a war really broke out, even though they were cultivators at the Source Realm, they might not be able to protect themselves, and there was a high possibility that they would never return!
After seeing that the three of them had all arrived at the Star Lord's Palace, Li Xuanfeng solemnly said, "I believe that the three of you already know that the Tianchen garrison needs our Bai Clan to send a Grand Elder of the Duyuan Realm. I wonder if anyone is willing to go?"
After hearing his words, Tang Wu remained silent, while the expressions of the Lieyan Sect Master and the Shura Sect Master showed a lot of embarrassment. The Lieyan Sect Master spoke first, "Senior Bai, I am the only Duyuan Realm cultivator in the Lieyan Sect. If I leave for a long time, I am worried that there will be unrest in the sect."
The Shura Sect Master also spoke in a deep voice: "We, the Shura Sect, have just settled in the new planet, and there are still many forces that are not convinced. I am also the only Duyuan Realm cultivator in the sect. If I leave, the rest of the Shura Sect may not be able to deter other forces, causing great unrest in the new planet!"
After listening to the two's reasons, Li Xuanfeng said calmly: "No matter who of you goes to support the Tianchen garrison, I will help you take care of your forces so that you don't have to worry about anything."
After hearing his words, Sect Master Lieyan and Sect Master Shura fell silent. Although they believed that he would keep his word, they still did not dare to express their willingness to go to support the Tianchen garrison.
There was a lot of hesitation on the face of the Flame Sect Leader, as if he was weighing the pros and cons, but he still didn't dare to make up his mind to go to the vicinity of the North Star Region.
The Shura Sect Master was silent for a while and then spoke again: "Senior Bai, to be honest, my Taoist partner just gave birth to a little girl last year. I was too reluctant to let her go, so it was not convenient for me to go to the Tianchen garrison."
The Lord of the Flame Sect looked at the Lord of the Shura Sect with a strange look, a little bit impressed by the other party's shamelessness that he could even come up with such a reason. The Lord of the Flame Sect, who had lived for thousands of years, could hardly count how many children he had given birth to, yet he said that he couldn't bear to part with his daughter who had just been born.
Then both Lord Lieyan and Lord Shura turned their gazes towards Tang Wu, as if to say that only Tang Wu did not have these concerns and was the most suitable person to go to support the Tianchen garrison.
Li Xuanfeng was not surprised to see this scene. On the contrary, he had already guessed that Sect Master Lieyan and Sect Master Shura were most likely unwilling to go to support the Tianchen defenders.
Perhaps they were indeed a little worried about the instability within the sect, but they were more worried about the dangers outside the North Star Region, fearing that they would never come back!
This time, Li Xuanfeng’s main purpose was not to seek their opinions, as he naturally had ways to make them willing to go, but to see how loyal the three were to him.
Feeling the gazes of the two masters of the Lieyan Sect, Tang Wu couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, then he clasped his fists and bowed respectfully to Li Xuanfeng, and said loudly: "Senior Bai, I am willing to go to the Tianchen garrison to support!"
Li Xuanfeng nodded slightly, and cast a look of great appreciation at Tang Wu . After lightly glancing at Sect Master Lieyan and Sect Master Shura, he solemnly said, "Then we have decided to let Tang Wu go to support the Tianchen garrison first. If we need to maintain it for a very long time, we will decide to rotate and let one of you go."
Hearing his words, Sect Master Lieyan and Sect Master Shura couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, feeling that they had most likely escaped a great disaster. Although Tang Wu might need to be replaced in the future, that would be at least several decades later, and by then peace should have been restored again.
While feeling relaxed, Sect Master Lieyan and Sect Master Shura complimented Tang Wu, saying, "Fellow Daoist Tang is truly a man of great righteousness!"
After a short silence, Li Xuanfeng took out a palm-sized black and white compass and said solemnly, "Tang Wu, things outside the North Star Region are not peaceful right now. This is a secret treasure I made. It can be used three times. It contains three of my magic spells. If there is any danger, you can activate them and use them."
"These three spells contain the original power that I have comprehended. You can comprehend them in your spare time to see if you can gain anything."
Seeing Li Xuanfeng suddenly take out the black and white compass and speak those words, Sect Master Lieyan and Sect Master Shura were slightly stunned for a moment, and instantly realized that the other party had been prepared and was just observing their attitude this time.
Looking at this black and white compass that exuded an extraordinary and mysterious aura, Sect Master Lieyan and Sect Master Shura could not help but feel a lot of regret in their hearts. Although they might have escaped a disaster, they definitely missed an opportunity...
Moreover, the leader of the Bai tribe was obviously testing them, but they found various excuses to shirk their responsibilities, which obviously disappointed the other party. They didn't know whether they would be punished by him in the future!
Tang Wu was immediately surprised and bowed respectfully again, saying, "Thank you, Senior Bai!"
Li Xuanfeng waved his hand slightly to indicate that you're welcome. At the same time, the black and white compass flew out and floated in front of Tang Wu in an instant, and was solemnly taken over by him.
Tang Wu had never thought that he had taken the initiative to offer to go to Tianchen to support the garrison in order to share the worries of the Bai tribe leader and repay the other party's kindness to him. He did not expect to gain such a reward. Not only could he obtain a life-saving secret treasure, but he could also comprehend the original power of the Bai tribe leader.
