Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

Chapter 427: Chapter 292 Star Dynasty_2

“There is one more thing you must not forget. Although we have obtained the inheritance of the Dao Palace Realm, the resources required to truly step into this level are numerous.

Simply relying on a single Jingyun Prefecture is difficult to support the emergence of many Dao Palace Realm experts.

If we do not expand, how many of you here can break through?”

As the voice fell.

The hall was plunged into silence.

Controlling Jingyun Prefecture and further expanding externally each have their own benefits.

The former is stable, while the latter carries immense risks.

However.

Behind this enormous risk, there are also astonishing profits.

Moreover, Gu Wu was right in saying that Jingyun Prefecture is not large, and its resources are extremely limited. Even if they acquire the Dao Palace Realm inheritance, truly breaking through successfully is not easy.

If Jingyun Alliance could further expand, they could gain more resources, making breakthroughs much easier then.

The most important point is that the strength Gu Wu displayed gave them the confidence to confront the Guiyuan Dynasty.

If Gu Wu were just an ordinary Dao Palace Realm, they would not be willing to take the risk. But Gu Wu killed the Jingyun Marquis with three strikes, his strength close to the peak of the Ninth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm.

Such a level of prowess, in the current End of Dharma Era, belongs to the top existence, only surpassed by those in the Semi-Saint Realm.

Thinking of this.

Many made their decision.

With a deep voice, Xia Yunchuan said, “With our alliance leader guiding Jingyun Alliance, it is our destined fate. With Jingyun Prefecture fallen and Guiyuan Dynasty in chaos, this is Jingyun Alliance’s opportunity.

I believe we should expand!”

“Three Suns Sect shares the same view!”

“Qingfeng Sect has no objection!”

“Red River Sect has no objection!”

The leaders of various forces stated their positions one after another, and seeing this, Gu Wu was very satisfied.

The few remaining people, though having different thoughts, could only nod in agreement given the prevailing trend.

——

Two days later.

The battle report of Jingyun Prefecture reached Guiyuan Dynasty, infuriating Emperor Han, who wished he could immediately dispatch the army to annihilate Jingyun Alliance.

But before Emperor Han could act, the Divine Martial Dynasty had already reinforced troops massively, and Taiyang Prefecture fell completely within two days, coming under the control of the Divine Martial Dynasty.

Following that.

The Divine Martial Dynasty.

Shi Zhen commanded the central army, then split into three routes, each attacking the three prefectures of Guiyuan Dynasty, throwing the latter into chaos.

In response.

Emperor Han could only suppress the idea of attacking Jingyun Alliance, dispatching troops to the frontline to resist the invasion of the Divine Martial Dynasty.

Meanwhile, far in the Nine States, Gu Yang, now presiding over the court, felt the fortune changes of the Divine Martial Dynasty and smiled broadly.

“The fall of Taiyang Prefecture greatly increased the fortune of our Divine Martial Dynasty. If we can completely annex the entire Guiyuan Dynasty, even if the Divine Martial Dynasty cannot ascend to an Imperial Dynasty, it can take a big step in the Qi Fortune Dynasty.

This way, the time to ascend to an Imperial Dynasty can be significantly shortened!”

After all.

The fastest way for a dynasty to ascend is through war.

Just like now, a single Taiyang Prefecture equates to ten years of accumulated fortune for the Divine Martial Dynasty.

However.

Gu Yang also understood that one cannot always sustain war to gain war.

Currently, the Divine Martial Dynasty is utterly crushing the Guiyuan Dynasty, hence the significant rise in the dynasty’s fortune.

If the strengths were equal and the battle drawn-out and fierce, even if Taiyang Prefecture were eventually captured, it would be hard to gain much fortune for the dynasty.

After all——

The loss of many soldiers would damage the fortune, and prolonged war could also cause public discontent, which is not conducive to stable development.

Only in situations like now, where the Divine Martial Dynasty advances triumphantly, can the strategy of gaining war through war be truly effective.

“Your Majesty, there is news from the frontline that Guiyuan Dynasty seems to be in contact with the Star Dynasty. If the Star Dynasty gets involved in this war, things might get tricky!”

A minister suddenly stepped forward and spoke in a deep voice.

The mention of Star Dynasty caused the atmosphere in the court to freeze.

An Imperial Dynasty!

Represents supreme heritage.

If Guiyuan Dynasty indeed has contact with Star Dynasty, things will become much more complicated.

“Gu Yi!”

“Your servant is here!”

“Do the Jinyi Guard have any intelligence on the Star Dynasty?”

Gu Yang asked.

The Jinyi Guard’s open identity is the Hidden Guard, and Gu Yi has moved from darkness to light, becoming the current Commander of the Jinyi Guard.

The role of the Jinyi Guard, like that of the Hidden Guard, is not only to supervise officials but also to gather intelligence from various places.

Gu Yi cupped his hands and said, “Your Majesty, Guiyuan Dynasty recently sent people to the Star Dynasty. According to Jinyi Guard’s investigation, it is very likely that they have formed an alliance in secret.”

“An alliance——”

Gu Yang squinted, his thoughts unknown.

A moment later.

Gu Yang said, “An Imperial Dynasty, that’s all. If the Star Dynasty chooses wisely, so be it. But if they truly wish to participate in this war, my Divine Martial Dynasty will not fear them.

Inform Shi Zhen to fully attack Guiyuan Dynasty. If any intervention from the Star Dynasty is detected, take action without any hesitation.”

“Yes!”

Gu Yi immediately accepted the order.

After the court was dismissed.

In the Imperial Study Room.

Gu Yang handed a sealed dark iron box to Gu Yi.

When Gu Yi took it, he felt its weight.

Gu Yang said, “This box contains a Great Saint Weapon. Take it to Shi Zhen immediately. If any strong enemy from the Star Dynasty invades, suppress them with this Great Saint Weapon!”

“Your servant accepts the order!”

“Go.”

Gu Yang waved his hand, and Gu Yi bowed and left.

Watching the other’s departing figure, Gu Yang also felt relieved.

With Shi Zhen’s strength, it would be impossible to contend with the Star Dynasty.

After all, the Star Dynasty has deep reserves and is teeming with experts. Just the number of Semi-Saints is more than one, and it has produced more than one Saint in the past.

Though Shi Zhen is at the Ninth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm, he is certainly no match for the Star Dynasty.

Therefore.

Gu Yang had Gu Yi deliver the Great Saint Weapon.

The Great Saint Weapon in the box is the God Slaying Spear, which Gu Yang obtained from Gu Qingfeng when he visited Gu Family Manor.

This Supreme Treasure, originating from the Ancient Desolate Holy Land, was of little use to Gu Qingfeng. So, when he learned of Gu Yang’s need, he readily handed over the God Slaying Spear.

“The God Slaying Spear, a Divine Weapon of the Ancient Desolate Holy Land, is a true killing Supreme Treasure. With Shi Zhen’s cultivation at the Ninth Layer of the Dao Palace Realm, holding the God Slaying Spear, he may even have the hope of slaying a Saint!”

“Even if the Star Dynasty were to send a Semi-Saint, it would not make a ripple.”

Gu Yang smiled confidently.

As for whether the Star Dynasty would deploy a Great Saint Weapon, Gu Yang considered it unlikely.

After all, a Great Saint Weapon is not as common as cabbage. Even if the Star Dynasty possesses such a Supreme Treasure, it would not be easily used, as any damage to a Great Saint Weapon would be a catastrophic loss for the Star Dynasty.

If the Divine Martial Dynasty was now invading the Star Dynasty, Gu Yang would have no doubt that the Star Dynasty would use its powerful reserves.

But now the Divine Martial Dynasty’s target is Guiyuan Dynasty, so even if the Star Dynasty allies with Guiyuan Dynasty, they would not act at any cost.

Understanding this, Gu Yang believed that a single Great Saint Weapon would be enough to suppress all disturbances. Even if the Star Dynasty intervened, it would change nothing.

After all, no matter how strong an Imperial Dynasty is, its strength is limited in the current End of Dharma Era.

Moreover.

The strength of the Qi Fortune Dynasty lies in the national fortune.

Once away from its own territory, without the blessings of fortune, the Star Dynasty’s threat is not as great as imagined.

“The Star Dynasty should just stay out of it. If they do intervene, it won’t be just one or two deaths!”

Gu Yang’s eyes were cold, and the killing intent in the Imperial Study Room was evident.
