Chapter 689: One Last Test

“Hahahaha…”,Seeing Liu Yuanguang’s puzzled expression, Heavenly Yang God King couldn't help but laugh heartily.

He said proudly, “Of course it’s related to us.”

“Otherwise, why would I specifically mention Great Desert Institute Master?”

“The name of Eternal Emperor cannot be mentioned lightly.”

“If this matter wasn’t related to us, why would I call you back?”

Hearing this, Liu Yuanguang became interested.

He pondered for a moment, then guessed, “Could it be related to Donghua Palace?”

Liu Yuanguang immediately thought of the key to the matter.

Although he didn’t know the specific relationship between Great Desert Institute Master’s trip to Taijin Mystic Region and Donghua Palace, he was sure that it must be related to Donghua Palace in some way.

Otherwise, Sect Master wouldn't be so excited.

Over the years, Tianyang Sect had expanded everywhere, conquering vast territories.

However, after many years of expansion, they had reached a certain Bottleneck.

Their surroundings were all powerful Sects, some even stronger than them, and they couldn't afford to provoke them.

The only Sect weaker than Tianyang Sect was Donghua Palace.

Moreover, Donghua Palace’s vast territory had long made them salivate.

But the problem was, although Donghua Palace’s overall strength was indeed much weaker than Tianyang Sect, Donghua Palace had Donghua God King, a top-tier God King, presiding over it.

They seemed unable to provoke him.

Once Donghua God King went berserk, even if they destroyed Donghua Palace, their Tianyang Sect would not benefit.

It was precisely because of this concern that they had not dared to act.

Until recent years, Donghua God King had not shown himself for a long time.

This made Liu Yuanguang and others speculate whether something had happened to Donghua God King.

Otherwise, why would he never show up?

Although it was not uncommon for a God King Cultivator to occasionally enter seclusion for hundreds of millions of years, or even longer, no one had seen Donghua God King for nearly ten billion years.

This made Liu Yuanguang and others start to have some ideas.

They knew that Donghua God King was definitely not dead.

Because the Dao of rules covering Donghua Great World was still operating normally.

However, not being dead did not mean there were no other accidents.

Perhaps Donghua God King was trapped somewhere and temporarily unable to return?

Over the years, they had constantly provoked Donghua Palace, precisely to confirm the status of Donghua God King.

However, after so many years, no matter how they provoked, although Donghua Palace’s counterattacks were fierce, Donghua God King himself had never shown his face again.

Liu Yuanguang was sixty percent sure that something must have happened to Donghua God King.

Although he didn’t know exactly what happened, Donghua God King must have had an accident.

Otherwise, facing their frequent provocations, how could Donghua God King, with his fiery temper, possibly tolerate it?

He would have probably already come to Tianyang Sect to demand an explanation.

It was precisely because of these reasons that Liu Yuanguang made such a guess.

Heavenly Yang God King slowly nodded, smiling as he said, “You guessed correctly, it is indeed related to Donghua Palace.”

“To be precise, it’s related to Donghua God King himself.”

“According to the information I gathered from Great Desert Academy, a long time ago, Donghua God King accidentally fell into Taijin Mystic Region while exploring Extraterritorial River.”

“He hasn’t returned for a long time.”

“Yuan He God King of Donghua Palace suddenly visited Great Desert Academy two hundred million years ago.”

“I don’t know what price he paid to persuade Great Desert Institute Master to act.”

“Great Desert Institute Master has been gone for two hundred million years, and there has been no news.”

“This made the Fellow Daoists of Great Desert Academy quite resentful, which allowed me to get this crucial piece of information.”

After hearing Heavenly Yang God King’s narration, Liu Yuanguang was ecstatic.

He asked excitedly, “Is this true? Could the Fellow Daoists from Great Desert Academy be mistaken?”

“How could Donghua God King accidentally end up in Taijin Mystic Region?”

He knew what kind of place Taijin Mystic Region was.

For ordinary Cultivators entering Taijin Mystic Region, the hope of returning was very slim.

Even top-tier God King powerhouses basically had no chance of escaping.

Inside Taijin Mystic Region, countless spaces were folded.

Once a Cultivator fell into it, it was very difficult to find the direction back.

Although it was not a terrifying dead end and could not kill people, a Cultivator not being able to return after entering was actually not much different from a dead end.

Even if Yuan He God King paid a huge price to persuade Great Desert Institute Master to act, the chances of bringing Donghua God King out were probably not very high.

Thinking of this, Liu Yuanguang was extremely excited.

This was a rare opportunity in billions of years!

Without Donghua God King presiding, how much strength would Donghua Palace still have?

If they launched a large army, they would have a complete chance to flatten Donghua Palace in one go.

However, Liu Yuanguang still had some concerns.

He worried whether this news was accurate and reliable.

Could it be a smokescreen intentionally released by Donghua God King?

If they launched a full-scale attack, and Donghua God King suddenly appeared and attacked their headquarters, that would be very bad.

Heavenly Yang God King pondered for a moment, then slowly said, “I heard this news by chance when Fellow Daoist Jichang of Great Desert Academy complained during the last gathering.”

“As for the accuracy of the news, I couldn’t ask in detail at the time.”

“It’s probably eighty or ninety percent accurate.”

Hearing this, Liu Yuanguang fell into deep thought.

Unable to confirm the accuracy of the news, he couldn’t launch a large-scale operation.

Better safe than sorry.

If this was a smokescreen released by Donghua God King, and they rashly moved, wouldn’t they fall into the opponent’s trap?

They had to come up with a stable plan.

Liu Yuanguang pondered for a while.

He looked at Heavenly Yang God King and asked seriously, “Sect Master, what do you think we should do?”

Heavenly Yang God King hesitated slightly.

After a while, he slowly said, “How about this?”

“Let’s test them one more time.”

“But this time, the intensity of the test must be great.”

“We must make Donghua Palace feel the pain.”

“If Donghua God King still doesn’t show up after this, then the accuracy of the news can be completely confirmed.”

“We will then directly mobilize the entire Sect’s strength and destroy Donghua Palace in one fell swoop.”

Liu Yuanguang considered for a moment, then slowly said, “Then we need to plan carefully.”

“It’s best to lure all Four Pillars of East Flower Palace out.”

“In previous conflicts, because we had to guard against Donghua God King, it was not convenient for us to act.”

“Our Disciples were not strong enough, and Four Pillars of East Flower Palace indeed caused us considerable losses.”

“This time, we will set a trap to lure all four of them out.”

“Then I will personally act and eliminate them all.”

“If Donghua God King still doesn’t show up after this, then we can start preparing to launch a full-scale attack on Donghua Palace.”

Liu Yuanguang only thought for a moment before quickly coming up with a rough plan.

Heavenly Yang God King nodded lightly.

“Good, let’s do that.”

“We will have the others return to the Sect as soon as possible.”

“As long as your plan goes smoothly, we can act.”
