Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1940 - 1922: The Campaign Begins

After two hours, Lin Feng appeared at the top of the Myriad Flame Tower, then smiled and walked toward the entrance he came from. However, to Lin Feng’s surprise, just as he left the Myriad Flame Tower, the tower immediately turned red, being burned by the scorching lava, and melted at a speed visible to the naked eye. In less than three breaths, the several dozen-feet-tall Myriad Flame Tower had completely disappeared.

With a glance at the spot where the Myriad Flame Tower disappeared, Lin Feng said nothing and swiftly departed.

When Lin Feng reached the outer entrance of the cave, he saw that it was None other than Wuchen Ancestor standing there. Wuchen Ancestor, upon seeing Lin Feng emerge, immediately stepped forward and asked, "Sect Master Lin, did you gain any benefit? You were in there for over a month, nearly scared me to death!"

As Wuchen Ancestor spoke, he wore a smile. From Lin Feng’s calm expression, he knew Lin Feng must have obtained the most important item within the Myriad Flame Tower, though he couldn’t guess what it was.

"This is it!" Lin Feng also smiled at Wuchen Ancestor and then raised his finger. Instantly, a golden flame appeared on his fingertip.

"This?" Wuchen Ancestor was stunned upon seeing the golden flame Lin Feng had produced, unable to understand what it was, wondering if this golden flame was some kind of treasure.

"Have you ever heard of the Thirty-Three Strange Fires of Heaven and Earth? This is one of them, the Myriad Flame True Fire, and it’s ranked third among them." Lin Feng explained with a smile to Wuchen Ancestor.

"Heaven and Earth Strange Fires... Thirty-Three Strange Fires... Myriad Flame True Fire..."

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s explanation, Wuchen Ancestor felt his mind buzz, nearly fainting. How could he not have heard of the Heaven and Earth Strange Fires? The ancient texts had introduced them, saying there are only thirty-three kinds of strange fires in the world, legendary since the Ancient Era. He never imagined Lin Feng would obtain this within the Myriad Flame Tower.

It’s a Heaven and Earth Strange Fire and the third-ranked Myriad Flame True Fire!

This outcome filled Wuchen Ancestor’s heart with bitterness. He thought to himself, Lin Feng is indeed extraordinary. The Myriad Flame Tower is a place he couldn’t even approach, and he’s sure that even an Earth Immortal strongman probably couldn’t come close. Yet, Lin Feng approached it with ease and even subdued the Myriad Flame True Fire. This is the difference between them, the true gap!

"Sect Master Lin, you truly are an extraordinary individual, one I admire greatly!"

These words came from his heart. He admired Lin Feng greatly before, but now he understands the extent of Lin Feng’s capabilities, reaching levels unimaginable. He even suspects that Lin Feng might be a Heavenly Immortal strongman himself. How else could he have subdued a Heaven and Earth Strange Fire? Such a feat probably no other in all the heavens could achieve, and Lin Feng is just in his twenties, in his twenties...

"Ancestor, don’t be so surprised, it’s meaningless." Lin Feng said with a slight smile to Wuchen Ancestor, "This matter is settled; it’s enough that you know. You should return to the Sect; I’ve just subdued the Myriad Flame True Fire and need to experience it."

With that said, Lin Feng didn’t wait for a response from Myriad Flame Ancestor and disappeared right in front of him, leaving only a faint circle of golden light...

...

In the Holy Soul Sect Council Hall of the Immortal Realm.

"Sect Master, we are ready. Shall we proceed with the action?" A proactive elder in the hall spoke up, indicating that preparations were nearly complete and they could start the action.

"Sect Master, although preparations are in place, I suggest we start the conquest from the weakest Cultivation World, seeking the black spirit stones we need." The Great Elder stood up at this moment, even though they were ready and the power on the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm’s side was extraordinary, it’s better to play it safe. Besides, the Eternal Joy Immortal Realm has already started the siege of the small Sects, a divided attack should beware of blind arrogance.

"Sect Master, we also agree with the Great Elder; if our Sect’s people enter any realm alone, there would be no problem. But since we have already begun the conquest of other small Sects, if we were to start wars in other realms, our forces would be scattered. In such a scenario, we should start the conquest with the weakest Cultivation World to ensure no error." Another elder also stood up to speak, emphasizing that when it comes to the grand strategy of the Sect, utmost caution is necessary.

"Sect Master, please reconsider! The Great Elder’s suggestion truly carries the best interest of the Sect."

"Sect Master, if we follow the Great Elder’s advice, even if we advance separately, there won’t be any pressure."

...

Other elders beside them also voiced agreement. Under such circumstances, dividing forces is indeed feasible, but they must ensure everyone’s safety. Although the Holy Soul Sect is powerful, not everyone is a Human Immortal Realm expert. Thus, under the precondition of safety, it’s best to pick the softer targets first. If it doesn’t work out, gather many experts to tackle the tougher problems.

Seeing the elders concur, Sect Master Xiao Tianrong nodded satisfactorily, gestured for silence, and after some careful thought, addressed the assembly: "Elders, your suggestions are appropriate, I also think thus, now listen to my orders."

"Elder Wang, you are ordered to lead eight Inner Sect Disciples to flatten the small Sects north of the Holy Soul Continent, rob their Sect Treasure Vaults, and try to find as many black spirit stones as possible."

"Elder Xu, heed the order. You will lead eight Inner Sect disciples to various small sects in the south of the Holy Soul Continent. If there is any resistance, eliminate them on the spot. Our only goal is the Black Spirit Stones!"

"Elder Zhou, heed the order. You will lead eight Inner Sect disciples and be responsible for..."

...

As one order after another was issued, Xiao Tianrong’s expression grew increasingly grim. The so-called ’first pacifying the interior before expanding outward’ meant that the small sects surrounding the Holy Soul Sect must be purged. These small sects had certainly hidden Black Spirit Stones privately before, and although the quantity was not significant, at this time, they could not afford to disregard any of them. To transform the Holy Soul Continent into an impregnable entity, these small sects must be eliminated.

As the many elders listened to Xiao Tianrong’s orders, their faces also turned serious. Up to this point, the elders who had been sent out were all of Earth Immortal Realm strength. With such power, plus eight Inner Sect disciples, dealing with those small sects was as easy as a walk in the park, and even if the news leaked, they wouldn’t be afraid.

In an instant, the internal orders of the Holy Soul Continent were completed, leaving the most critical issue, which was the conquest of various realms within the Cultivation World. At this moment, there were not many elders left, and those who weren’t assigned tasks, such as the Great Elder, revealed smiles on their faces upon witnessing this.

Xiao Tianrong glanced at the five Great Elders and, after pondering for a moment, said to the five Great Elders, "Great Elder, you five elders will be responsible for the conquest of the various cultivation realms outside. I will not interfere with the specific implementation steps. The sect here can only provide you with ten Human Immortal Realm disciples. Given your relatively small numbers, all three subsidiary sects under the sect can be at your disposal."

As soon as these words were spoken, the other elders present gasped, realizing the sect’s determination to conquer the various cultivation realms. Granting the three subsidiary sects to the five Great Elders represented not a small power; the combined strength of these three subsidiary sects was even greater than all of theirs combined, indicating the sect’s unwavering determination regarding other cultivation realms!

"Sect Master, we shall certainly not fail our mission!" The Great Elder promptly responded, a proud smile on his face. Conquering other cultivation realms, and being given so many people, if this task was still not executed well, he might as well find a rock and end himself.

"Great Elder, you still need to be cautious; the situation in other cultivation realms is unknown and cannot be compared to the Holy Soul Continent. Try to avoid any casualties. If you encounter a tough opponent, report it to the sect for decision-making, and do not act rashly," Xiao Tianrong said, slightly frowning as he observed the Great Elder’s prideful demeanor. He didn’t want any mistakes in such a scenario.

"Rest assured, Sect Master." Hearing the Sect Master say this, the smile on the Great Elder’s face retracted, and he responded seriously.

"Alright, then. You may all proceed with your duties." Xiao Tianrong, seeing the Great Elder grow serious, nodded in satisfaction and subsequently indicated to the elders to execute the orders as instructed.

The various elders observed this and left the Council Hall, while the five Great Elders headed to the Great Elder’s residence at his gesture.

"What do you all think about this matter?" The Great Elder asked with a smile as he looked at the other four elders in the room.

"Great Elder, you can decide on this matter."

"I think we should assess the situation first and deal with a few cultivation realms initially to see the specific situation."

"I agree. If we immediately mobilize the three subsidiary sects’ power, it might raise objections within the sect."

...

The other four elders expressed their individual opinions as they looked at the Great Elder. Indeed, many eyes were on them, and directly mobilizing other sects’ power would certainly result in discontent among others.

"Yes, I think the same," the Great Elder nodded after hearing everyone’s comments, "It’s not feasible for all five of us to be busy conquering other cultivation realms; the sect has other matters we need to attend to. Fourth Elder and Fifth Elder, you two will act first as a vanguard, leading ten Inner Sect disciples to conquer the Yellow Profound Continent. Based on the situation there, we can make further decisions."

Having said this, the Great Elder paused, then continued, "You two should also be cautious. Although the Yellow Profound Continent is a lower-level cultivation realm, unexpected situations may arise. Resolve the Yellow Profound Continent swiftly and return to the sect thereafter."

"Understood, Great Elder!"

"Great Elder, we will handle this matter well."

The Fourth and Fifth Elders complied, responding promptly. For them, this was not a difficult task. The most formidable individuals in the Yellow Profound Continent hadn’t even reached the Human Immortal Realm. Their presence was overkill, like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, with the main objective being to search for Black Spirit Stones.

With the tasks assigned, everyone dispersed, and the Fourth and Fifth Elders led ten Inner Sect disciples through the Teleportation Formation to the Yellow Profound Continent...
