The First Marquis of Daxuan

The blueprints for the divine weapon left behind by the Great Celestial Venerable.

Ning Hongchen looked at Su Mu with anticipation.

"Are you trying to kill me?"

Instead, he heard Su Mu's calm voice.

"Why would I want to kill you?"

Ning Hongchen was taken aback and said, "Do you know how long I've been waiting for you?"

Ning Hongchen's words are easy to misunderstand.

Anyone who didn't know better would think that Su Mu had some kind of relationship with him.

"The Celestial Venerables of the Great Void Sacred Realm do not want to see the Great Celestial Venerable resurrected and return. You died back then because of this. Now you are giving me the blueprints of the Heavenly Mandate Divine Weapon left by the Great Celestial Venerable. Aren't you trying to make me the target of the current Celestial Venerables' pursuit?"
"How many lives do I have to withstand the pursuit of those Celestial Venerables?"

Su Mu said calmly.

He is self-aware of this.

Although he is currently very strong, he is not capable of contending with the Celestial Venerable.

Let alone offending many Celestial Venerables at once, even if he faced just one Celestial Venerable, he would only have the strength to fight. Whether he could escape from that person's clutches would depend on his own luck.

Ning Hongchen now wants him to follow the old path taken by the Seventy-Two Sages, so Su Mu naturally has to think it over.

The road isn't impassable, but it will cost extra.

Ning Hongchen looked at Su Mu. This wasn't the first time he had dealt with Su Mu, and he knew how difficult Su Mu was to deal with.

Talking about ideals is useless when facing Su Mu, and threatening him is also useless. Su Mu is like a hard, unyielding copper pea.

"You can't say that."

Ning Hongchen said in a deep voice, "Besides me, no one in the world knows the blueprints for the Great Celestial Venerable's Heavenly Mandate Divine Weapon, and those Celestial Venerables in the Taixu Sacred Realm do not know that I am still alive."

In other words, even if I pass on the blueprints of the Great Celestial Venerable's Heavenly Mandate Divine Weapon to you, those Celestial Venerables wouldn't know about it. If they don't know, why would they hunt you down?

Moreover, their reasons for targeting us back then weren't solely based on the divine weapon; there were many other complex interests at play.

How can you be so sure I don't have any ulterior motives?

Su Mu remained unmoved and calmly said, "I have never met the Great Celestial Venerable, nor have I ever received any of his blessings. There is no need for me to take such a risk for him."

"That's not quite right. The martial arts path was created by the Great Celestial Venerable, and every martial artist today has benefited from his legacy, including you."

Ning Hongchen continued to persuade, "Besides, the forging of the Heavenly Weapon is not for the sake of the Great Heavenly Venerable."

The 360 ​​divine weapons of destiny can indeed awaken the Great Celestial Venerable, but that's just a side effect.

If you can forge 360 ​​divine weapons of destiny, you can transform yin into yang and turn the entire Void Realm into a yang realm.

When the entire Saha world is pure Yang and without Yin, there will be many more positions for Heavenly Venerables, and you will have the opportunity to become a Heavenly Venerable, live a long and carefree life. Isn't this also what you are pursuing?

If you cannot expand your territory, how can you become a Celestial Venerable?

"I'm still young. Even if I don't become a Celestial Venerable, I can still live a long time."

Su Mu said calmly.

Ning Hongchen paused, damn it, he had forgotten about this.

Others would be at least several hundred years old or even over a thousand years old to reach the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm.

But Su Mu is not even a hundred years old yet!

A martial artist at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm can live for up to three thousand years.

In other words, Su Mu could live for nearly three thousand years!

He had no anxiety about his lifespan at all.

Moreover, with Su Mu's current strength, if the Heavenly Venerable doesn't intervene, almost no one in the world can do anything to him.

If he weren't still concerned about these people from the outer realms, he would already be living a carefree life.

To put it bluntly, even if the Void Realm really invades the Yang Realm, with Su Mu's strength, he can still find a place to live a carefree life, and the Void Beasts of the Void Realm can't do anything to him.

In three thousand years, Su Mu might even outlast another Celestial Venerable. Who knows if he won't have a chance to seize the Venerable position?

"Ning Hongchen, I'm very curious, why are you so concerned about resurrecting the Great Celestial Venerable?"

What exactly is the relationship between the Great Celestial Venerable and the Seventy-Two Sages?

Su Mu looked at Ning Hongchen and slowly asked.

The other 71 of the 72 Sages were already dead, and Ning Hongchen himself was in a state of living dead. Su Mu really couldn't understand why, even in this state, Ning Hongchen still wanted to use him to refine 360 ​​divine weapons of destiny.

If doing this could revive the other seventy-two sages, that would be one thing.

But it's clearly not going to work.

Forging 360 divine weapons of destiny can only awaken the Great Celestial Venerable.

Su Mu couldn't see what benefit Ning Hongchen could gain from this.

Can a person really do things solely based on passion?

Su Mu didn't know if others could or couldn't, but he himself wouldn't accept it.

He certainly won't pay for sentimentality.

“I told you, I’m not doing this for the Great Celestial Venerable.”

Ning Hongchen said with a serious expression, "I don't want the people of the Yang Realm to live in the shadow of the Void Realm's Void Beasts."

The ruler of the Void Beasts is ambitious; if we don't strike first, we'll only end up being beaten.

Su Mu curled his lip; he didn't believe a single word of such high-sounding words.

"Alright, let's be frank. I'll forge 360 ​​divine weapons for you, and what benefits will you give me in return?"

Su Mu spoke.

"Su Mu, are you sure you're not mistaken about something?"

Ning Hongchen also came to his senses and said somewhat speechlessly, "You are the one who asked about the solution to the predicament of the Void Realm. The Heavenly Mandate Divine Weapon can indeed transform yin into yang, and this is the only way."

You want a solution, and now that I'm giving you one, you're unwilling to accept it?
Why are you asking me for solutions and then expecting something in return? Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?

He was at a loss for words, both amused and exasperated.

You're telling me how to solve my problem, and now it's like I owe you something?

I haven't even asked you for anything yet.

"Then let's just part ways."

Su Mu said decisively, "I'm not playing anymore."

Ning Hongchen: "..."

Are you starting to act like a scoundrel?
Ning Hongchen felt a throbbing pain in his temples. If anyone else had spoken to him like that, he would have slapped them to death long ago.

But this person is Su Mu. Not only can you not kill him, but even if you could, you couldn't kill him with a single slap.

Ning Hongchen looked helpless; he was starting to regret coming to find Su Mu.

He has already revealed his identity, kid. Can't you show some respect to the senior?

If I had known this would happen, I should have sent Mao Jiu.

When two shameless people meet, they can compete to see who is more shameless.

"You're not at a loss."

At this moment, Ning Hongchen heard Su Mu say, "In the world today, I am the only one who understands the Qiankun Creation Method. Apart from me, no one can forge the Heavenly Mandate Divine Weapon."

"For such a tiny, insignificant price, you'd make someone like me work like a slave for you. If I were you, I'd be laughing in my sleep."

"A tiny, insignificant price?"

Ning Hongchen was so angry that she laughed.

Do you not understand your own appetite?
Can you accept such a tiny, insignificant price?
"As I said, the treasure from back then has been completely exhausted. In order to forge seventy-two divine weapons of destiny, I am now penniless."

Ning Hongchen said helplessly, "I only have one thing to give you. If you are still unwilling, then let's part ways. Anyway, the destruction of this Saha world has nothing to do with me. I am already a dead person."

Ning Hongchen also gave up entirely.

It's just being a scoundrel; let's see who's more of a scoundrel.

Seeing Ning Hongchen's shameless behavior, Su Mu sighed inwardly.

He knew he couldn't push an old guy like Ning Hongchen too hard, otherwise who knew what that old guy might do?

"For the sake of our friendship, I'll reluctantly agree."

Su Mu deliberately sighed and said, "What are you going to give me?"

"A martial art."

Ning Hongchen said slowly.

"Gong method?"

Su Mu raised an eyebrow.

He had already mastered quite a few cultivation techniques, including the Eight-Nine Profound Technique, the Great Evolution Technique, and the Nine Tribulations Suppressing Prison Scripture...

In fact, these techniques were the unique skills of the Seventy-Two Sages of that time.

Theoretically speaking, each of the seventy-two sages possessed a unique skill, which constitutes the seventy-two unique skills.

Su Mu only possessed a handful of skills.

But Ning Hongchen is different; Ning Hongchen is very likely to possess the martial arts heritage of all seventy-two sages.

Although Ning Hongchen said that he was a living dead and that no matter how much he cultivated, his strength would not improve, it did not prevent him from knowing these cultivation techniques.

Could it be that Ning Hongchen intends to pass on the martial arts of the Seventy-Two Sages to me?
Su Mu thought to himself, but he wasn't too surprised.

He is already at the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm; one more step forward and he will be at the Heavenly Venerable Realm.

To break through to the Celestial Venerable Realm, cultivating any technique is useless.

This step requires understanding.

What Su Mu lacks now is not martial arts techniques. After all, he has not yet cultivated his Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique to the Great Perfection. He could not learn more martial arts techniques than he could.

Of course, he wouldn't refuse if Ning Hongchen offered it to him.

Ning Hongchen flipped his wrist, and a stone slab about one foot square appeared in his palm.

Su Mu looked over with some curiosity.

The stone slab was covered with dense lines, and one hesitated to insert even an inch into it.

With just one glance, he felt as if the lines were moving, sometimes transforming into a small person, sometimes into a majestic eagle, changing in an instant, dazzling him.

"This is the martial arts you're going to give me?"

Su Mu said with some surprise.

"Yes."

Ning Hongchen nodded and said, "Weren't you curious about our relationship with the Great Celestial Venerable?"

To tell you the truth, we have no connection with the Great Celestial Venerable; we simply obtained his relics by chance.

The Great Celestial Venerable possessed two relics: one was the design blueprints for the Heavenly Mandate Divine Weapon, and the other was this.

Ning Hongchen pointed to the stone slab in his hand.

"This stone slab is a product of the primordial laws of heaven and earth. The Great Celestial Venerable obtained this stone slab and comprehended the path of martial arts cultivation from it, which is how martial artists came to exist in this world."

Ning Hongchen said solemnly, "You could say that it is the source of all martial arts in the world. The Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique and the Great Evolution Technique that you cultivate were both comprehended from it."

Su Mu finally showed a look of shock.

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Ning Hongchen's eyes. "Finally, you've surprised me, kid. I thought you could remain calm no matter what happened."

Hmph! How old are you? How much have you seen?

What are you trying to prove in front of me?
With just a few words from me, I can leave you completely stunned!
"If you have enough comprehension, you might even be able to comprehend a more powerful technique than the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique from it."

Ning Hongchen said with a hint of smugness.

"What if one's comprehension is insufficient?"

Su Mudao.

"If you don't have enough comprehension, you naturally won't be able to understand anything."

Ning Hongchen said, "Su Mu, you don't seem to have any confidence in yourself, do you?"

"The provoking method is of no use to me."

Su Mu said calmly, "But I want this."

He reached out and took the stone slab from Ning Hongchen's hand. When he looked down at it, he felt that the lines were chaotic and complicated, making him dizzy. But he really couldn't see any martial arts behind them.

"This primordial stone tablet is the source of martial arts, but you don't need to rush to comprehend it. It would take at least a hundred or two hundred years to comprehend martial arts from it."

Ning Hongchen said, "These are the design blueprints for the Heavenly Weapon left behind by the Great Celestial Venerable, and I'm giving them to you as well."

As Ning Hongchen spoke, he flipped his wrist, and a secret appeared in his palm.

The pages of the manual were actually woven from gold thread, giving it a heavy and substantial feel.

Without hesitation, Su Mu put away the Primordial Stone Tablet and then took the picture book.

I randomly flipped to a page, and there was a picture on it, with small text below that detailed the materials needed for the weapon in the picture, as well as the methods of forging it.

Su Mu flipped through a few pages and saw the crafting methods for the Zijin Beam of the Sea, the Demon-Slaying Sword, the Xuanhuang Zhenyue Pagoda, and even the Yin-Yang Cauldron.

To deceive Tian Cangchen, Su Mu once personally forged a batch of counterfeit Heavenly Mandate Divine Weapons.

At the time, Su Mu thought he had done a good job of replicating it. Even if it couldn't be exactly the same as the original Heavenly Weapon, it wouldn't be far off.

After seeing this catalog of divine weapons of destiny, Su Mu realized that the difference between a divine weapon of destiny and a divine weapon of destiny was as vast as heaven and earth, despite the difference of just one word.

The divine weapons he forged, even those of the Heavenly Mandate level, were far inferior to the true Heavenly Mandate weapons.

"As expected of the Great Celestial Venerable who pioneered martial arts, even his mastery of weapon forging has reached a level that is awe-inspiring."

Su Mu couldn't help but sigh, "I really want to meet this Great Celestial Venerable."

"You may have this opportunity in your lifetime."

Ning Hongchen said meaningfully.

Su Mu smiled sarcastically. He was just saying it casually; if he were really asked to meet the Great Celestial Venerable, he might not be so willing.

"Ning Hongchen, your incarnation technique was also comprehended from the Primordial Stone Tablet?"

Su Mu asked curiously.

"That's not it."

Ning Hongchen shook his head and said, "The Primordial Stone Slab is the source of martial arts, but that doesn't mean that all martial arts are learned from it."

Since the Great Celestial Venerable opened up the path of martial arts, countless predecessors of martial arts, with their extraordinary talents, have long since created all kinds of martial arts techniques. In fact, most of the martial arts that are still circulating today were created by later generations.

Only a handful of martial arts techniques were truly gleaned from the original stone tablet. These few techniques are among the most advanced in the world.

"The most important thing in martial arts is the concept of harmony. The more a martial arts technique is in harmony with one's own, the smoother the martial artist's training will be. However, the martial arts created by our predecessors were all based on their own conditions. No matter how similar a later generation is to their predecessors, there will always be differences."

Ning Hongchen said, "If you comprehend martial arts from this primordial stone slab, what you comprehend will surely be the most suitable technique for you."

Su Mu, you have already reached the peak of the Heavenly Fate Realm. If you want to go far, you should find your own path as soon as possible.

While the Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique and the Great Evolution Technique are excellent, they may not be the right path for you.

Ning Hongchen spoke with such sincerity that Su Mu no longer responded with cold words.

He nodded.

Just as they were about to speak, a loud bang suddenly rang out.

Su Mu and Ning Hongchen looked over upon hearing the sound.

On the distant battlefield, a gigantic beast, ten zhang in size, burst out of the passage.

The powerful figures from the Great Xuan faction roared and attacked, but were knocked off their feet by the Void Beast, causing their formation to fall into chaos.

Su Mu's face darkened.

Has Cha Haishan's army of Void Beasts finally run out of patience and unleashed their true power?

"Su Mu, it's in my place to take action, so I'll leave this to you."

Ning Hongchen said, "Don't forget, you already have seventy-two Heavenly Weapons."

After saying that, Ning Hongchen's figure flickered and disappeared into thin air.

Su Mu snorted coldly, but he also knew that Ning Hongchen was now a dead man in the eyes of those Heavenly Venerables in the Taixu Sacred Realm.

If he were to make a move in public now, it would certainly not escape the notice of those in the Taixu Sacred Realm who were interested.

Once those Celestial Venerables find out that Ning Hongchen is still alive, the secret of the Heavenly Weapon will likely be lost, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Now, Cha Haishan's army of Void Beasts can only be dealt with by himself.

A sharp glint flashed in Su Mu's eyes.

suddenly.

A beam of light shot over from afar, instantly reaching above the Void Beast.

Su Mu's avatar has returned from the Sacred Realm of the Great Void.

With his avatar taking action, Su Mu's main body was no longer in a hurry.

His gaze fell on the book of destiny.

Ning Hongchen was right; he already possessed seventy-two divine weapons of destiny.

These seventy-two divine weapons were forged by the seventy-two sages of that time. They used these divine weapons to add a defensive Great Wall to the Taixu Sacred Realm.

In theory, Su Mu could use these seventy-two divine weapons of destiny to carve out a piece of land in the Void Realm and transform yin into yang.

According to Ning Hongchen, this is more thorough and efficient than simply using extremely yang objects to transform the Void Realm.

An extremely yang object can only modify an area of ​​a few hundred feet, but a divine weapon of destiny can directly create another outer realm.

However, this is not something that can be done immediately upon obtaining a divine weapon.

The Heavenly Weapon has been in Su Mu's possession for quite some time. If Ning Hongchen hadn't told him, Su Mu wouldn't have known that the Heavenly Weapon possessed such power.

How to utilize these seventy-two divine weapons of destiny to carve out a territory in the Ruins Realm depends on this Book of Destiny.

Su Mu skimmed through the entire Destiny Chart, reading ten lines at a glance.

This Book of Destiny contains a total of 360 divine weapons of destiny, divided into five groups of 72 each.

It was no coincidence that the seventy-two sages forged seventy-two divine weapons of destiny. Only seventy-two divine weapons of destiny could cause a qualitative change in its quantity, transforming it from a simple weapon into a true treasure.

Seventy-two divine weapons of destiny, not one can be missing.

Su Mu closed his eyes, and the contents of the Destiny Chart flashed through his mind.

A moment later, he suddenly opened his eyes and raised his hands.

hum!
A soft sound.

The dozen or so divine weapons left behind by Ning Hongchen flew up directly.

At the same time, Su Mu's body flashed with light, and one after another, divine weapons of destiny appeared in the air.

These divine weapons of destiny hovered in the air, trembling slightly.

In the blink of an eye, a total of seventy-two divine weapons of destiny appeared around Su Mu's body.

The seventy-two divine weapons of destiny simultaneously emitted dazzling light, which merged into one.

In the sky, a Great Wall faintly appeared, stretching for countless miles.

…………

Ning Hongchen and Mao Jiu stood in mid-air, looking at the Great Wall that was faintly visible in the distance.

"Hey, it really is the Su Mu I know. If he can do something on the first day of the month, he will never do it on the fifteenth."

I told you, once he gets his hands on the Book of Destiny, he'll definitely be tempted to use those seventy-two divine weapons of destiny.

Cat Nine chuckled as he spoke.

“Those guys in the Taixu Sacred Realm want to watch from the sidelines, but Su Mu has to give them that opportunity first.”

Cat Nine had a gloating look on his face.

Su Mu is going to use seventy-two divine weapons of destiny to attack the Void Realm, which means that the Great Wall between the Outer Domain and the Great Void Sacred Realm will disappear.

At that time, the Outer Realm and the Great Void Sacred Realm will be reunited as one.

In this way, it will be more than just the outer realms that need to confront the Void Realm.

"Is doing this right or wrong?"

Ning Hongchen sighed and said.

"You guys are just too indecisive. What's right or wrong? The Void Beasts from the Void Realm are about to come knocking on our door. If we don't wake those guys from the Void Sacred Realm up, they'll really think the world is at peace."

"Cat Nine said dismissively."

"If Su Mu is no match for the Lord of the Void Beasts, then this Saha World will not become a pure Yang World, but a pure Yin World. At that time, you, me, and all these billions of humans will die without a burial place."

Ning Hongchen said.

"You're an old bachelor with no descendants, why are you worrying so much?"

Cat Nine said disdainfully, "Who hasn't died? Even if we lose to the Void Realm in the end, at least we fought a fierce battle. What's there to be afraid of?"

Ning Hongchen knew she couldn't win the argument with Mao Jiu, so she didn't bother arguing with it and just looked into the distance.

"With the Great Wall between the two realms gone, the Great Void Sacred Realm is likely to be in chaos for a while."

Ning Hongchen said.

The spiritual energy in the outer realms is scarce. Once the Great Wall disappears, the spiritual energy of the Taixu Sacred Realm will surge to the outer realms, and endless natural disasters will occur in a short period of time.

…………

The Sacred Realm of the Great Void.

In some secluded, cloud-shrouded place, a figure sitting cross-legged opened his eyes and looked towards the outer realms.

He suddenly exuded an overwhelming aura, and then he opened his mouth and said something.

Thousands of miles away.

Fu Canglan, the sect leader of the Cangqiong Sect, bowed deeply, appearing to be obediently following orders.

A moment later, he straightened up and looked toward the outer realms.

"From now on, will there be no more outer realms? Is this Su Mu's doing?"

Fu Canglan muttered to himself, "What a brilliant move. Without the barrier, once the Void Beasts of the Void Realm conquer the Outer Domain, they will be able to advance unimpeded. You're forcing us to send troops to aid the Outer Domain."

After a moment of contemplation, Fu Canglan smiled.

"It's easy to send troops, but once they're out, it won't be so easy for us to withdraw."

Fu Canglan sneered, "Su Mu, Su Mu, this vast outer region cannot become your personal domain."

This time, you're probably going to overdo it.

Fu Canglan gave the order, and soon after, a large army set off from the Cangqiong Sect, heading towards the outer regions, or rather, the Great Xuan Dynasty.

At almost the same time, major sects in the Taixu Sacred Realm, such as the Martial Sect and the True Saint Sect, also sent reinforcements.

Their goal was to help the Great Xuan Dynasty defeat the Void Beasts and, at the same time, occupy the original outer realms.

…………

A single attempt caused a sensation across the world.

Su Mu, the instigator, seemed completely unaware of all this.

He stood with his eyes closed, arms outstretched, and feet three feet off the ground.

Seventy-two divine weapons of destiny slowly rotated around his body, just like planets revolving around a star.

Above the seventy-two divine weapons of destiny, a majestic Great Wall became increasingly clear.

In the end, the Great Wall shattered with a deafening roar, turning into specks of starlight that merged into the seventy-two divine weapons of destiny.

Rumble!
When these things happen, the earth shakes and the mountains tremble in an instant.

The entire outer realm trembled violently, and towering mountains appeared out of nowhere in various places within the outer realm.

A fierce storm swept across the entire outer realms.

Ordinary people fled to avoid the storm, but many were still injured or even killed by debris blown down by the strong winds.

A dramatic change in the world is a near-catastrophic crisis for ordinary people, but at the same time, it is also a great opportunity.

Those who survive will be able to enjoy more abundant spiritual energy. Even if they do not practice martial arts, they will be healthy and live out their lives peacefully thanks to the nourishment of spiritual energy.

However, these are not things that Su Mu needs to consider.

Even if he knew that this action would cause casualties among ordinary people, he would not hesitate at all.

If the Great Wall were removed now, there could be casualties among ordinary people.

But if we don't do this, the casualties among ordinary people will only be greater when the outer realms are completely overrun.

The lesser of two evils.

For the Shetland Sheepdog, this choice was easy.

Feeling the power of the seventy-two divine weapons gathered together, Su Mu slowly opened his eyes.

Ning Hongchen did not lie to him. After collecting all seventy-two Heavenly Weapons, Su Mu did indeed feel the difference between them.

"As expected of the Great Celestial Venerable, he actually designed such a divine weapon of destiny."

Su Mu thought to himself, "As long as these seventy-two divine weapons of destiny are placed in the Ruins Realm according to the trajectory of the Zhou Tian Star Chart, then we can rebuild the Great Wall and establish our own kingdom."

Using seventy-two divine weapons of destiny to carve out a territory in the Void Realm is both complex and simple.

What's complicated is its underlying principle, which involves the laws of heaven and earth. Even Su Mu only understands the basics now.

The simple thing is that it's very easy to operate.

All you need to do is send someone with a divine weapon to a specific location, which is similar to setting up an array.

With seventy-two divine weapons of destiny as the core of the formation, this great formation can be set up.

Within the range of the formation, the area will become its own world. Then, by using the seventy-two divine weapons of destiny to draw upon the power of heaven and earth, the yin can be transformed into yang, completely transforming the Void Realm into the Yang Realm.

"This is no different from a conflict between two countries. After the victorious country occupies the defeated country, it must gradually erode the defeated country through culture and other means in order to completely turn the defeated country into its own territory."

Su Mu thought to himself.

What he needs to do now is to send the seventy-two divine weapons of destiny into the Void Realm and place them in a specific location.

"The placement of the seventy-two divine weapons of destiny is not arbitrary, but determined according to the earth veins and the celestial star map of the Void Realm."

Su Mu's brain was calculating rapidly.

The benefits of Su Mu's extensive knowledge became apparent at this time.

He was proficient in formations, skilled in deduction and calculation, and had once searched the souls of the Void Beasts in the Void Realm, so he had a thorough understanding of the geographical situation of the Void Realm.

At this moment, all sorts of information collided in his mind, eventually evolving into a complete map.

In other words, Su Mu, someone else might not have been able to do this.

Even Ning Hongchen couldn't do it.

Ning Hongchen's martial arts skills were extremely high, but he did not understand formations.

He is knowledgeable in formations, has a high level of martial arts, and is also proficient in weapon forging. Looking around the world, apart from Su Mu, there is probably no one else like him.

"Things are really getting complicated."

Looking at his deduction results, Su Mu looked up at the direction of the battlefield and muttered to himself.

His avatar blocked the enormous Void Beast, and the Great Xuan army had regained its formation. The two sides were engaged in fierce combat.

"Several points happened to fall within the territory of the Void Beast Tribe."

To place the divine weapon of destiny within the Void Beast Tribe, the Void Beast Tribe must first be driven out.

Otherwise, even if I secretly placed the Heavenly Weapons down there, once I activated the seventy-two Heavenly Weapons to control the space, the commotion wouldn't escape the notice of the Void Beasts, and they would have a perfect opportunity to destroy them.

Su Mu frowned in thought, muttering to himself.

He has only deduced seventy-two positions so far, but almost a third of these seventy-two positions are in the Void Beast Tribe.

Su Mu now finally understands why the Seventy-Two Sages, despite having forged seventy-two divine weapons of destiny, did not invade the Void Realm and carve out a territory for themselves.

It's not that they don't want to, but that they can't.

To seize control of this area, the first step is to take the territory from the Void Beasts and then use the seventy-two Heavenly Mandate Divine Weapons to transform it; that's just the last step.

The Seventy-Two Sages are very strong, but their troops may not be as powerful as Su Mu's at present. It would be impossible for them to conquer such a large territory with just the seventy-two of them.

Now Su Mu is facing the same problem.

No matter how strong he is on his own, he cannot accomplish this task, and the Great Xuan Dynasty is ultimately too weak.

"Unless, the major sects in the Taixu Sacred Realm, such as the Cangqiong Sect and the Martial Sect, can be of service to me."

Su Mu thought to himself.

The Great Xuan Dynasty is far inferior to sects like the Azure Sky Sect and the Martial Sect; its foundation is nowhere near comparable.

"Now that the outer realms and the Taixu Sacred Realm are no longer distinct, it is no longer possible for the Cangqiong Sect and the Martial Sect to remain outside of them."

However, figuring out how to get them to attack the places I want them to attack will require some thought.

Su Mu thought to himself, "Perhaps, Cha Haishan and the Lord of the Void Beasts can be used."

A glint of light flashed in his eyes, and a slight smile involuntarily appeared at the corners of his mouth. (End of Chapter)
