Chapter 333 What is eternal? Only me, Ding Yi!
Hai Qingzi stood below, listening to Ding Yi's low laughter, without any change in expression.
Ding Yi then said:
"Let it be chaotic, let it be chaotic, the more chaotic the better. Tell Liu Xun to investigate which sect the True Immortals who died during the last siege of Biyou Palace belonged to. At this critical juncture, the Upper Realm will absolutely not dare to send down True Immortals again."
"Hehe, once we have the results, we'll tell the Zhao siblings and let them personally lead the attack!"
Although Hai Qingzi didn't understand Ding Yi's meaning, she still obediently responded and then prepared to leave.
Upon seeing this, Ding Yi suddenly realized something and quickly said:
"What about the Boundary-Breaking Stone? Any news?"
Upon hearing this, Hai Qingzi quickly replied:
"Master, there is still no news on this matter."
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi frowned and gave the order:
"I'm always a little uneasy with this woman under her nose. Tell your men to loosen their grip; I need to get this Boundary-Breaking Stone as soon as possible!"
Hai Qingzi nodded upon hearing this, and then left the main hall.
Inside the hall, Ding Yi sat on the chair above, looking at the gloomy and dilapidated hall, and slowly closed his eyes again.
He must seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; whether he can erect a statue in every state depends entirely on this chance.
Soon, the allied forces on the border of China discovered something strange.
The Huazhou army, which had been launching a fierce counterattack, has suddenly stopped in the past few days.
"That's strange. These guys were acting like crazy a few days ago, why have they gone limp lately?"
The general from Taiping Palace looked at the empty horizon before him and said with some puzzlement.
The young general standing nearby was equally puzzled. He frowned and said:
"Could it be that they've retreated to protect the main city?"
The other general shook his head upon hearing this:
"We haven't pushed you too far. This isn't enough to make you surrender, is it?"
"It's hard to say. The immortal has requested that we not venture too deep into the heart of the land. The immortals of Biyou Palace in the lower realm are extremely powerful. In this situation, what should we do?"
Another general asked in confusion.
"What else can we do but report to the real person? Sigh."
The general from Taiping Palace sighed, then turned his horse around and slowly rode towards the rear camp.
The unusual withdrawal of Biyou Palace's troops did not seem to attract the attention of the other Divine Palace Masters.
They felt that Biyou Palace might have given up on building the formation, after all, the power of the Ten-State Allied Army was not to be underestimated.
At this moment, these real people are gathered together, discussing how to deal with the woman from Biyou Palace.
"Strange, we couldn't find any trace of this woman in the upper realm either; she seems to have appeared out of thin air."
One of them spoke slowly.
"Could it be someone from another force?"
"No way. Who else but our Divine Palace could possess such a powerful cultivator?"
"Those insignificant figures are nothing more than vassals of my divine palace. They wouldn't dare to do such a thing even if they had a hundred lives!"
Someone snorted coldly.
"That's strange. But that immortal artifact is also suspicious. I feel like everything in this human realm is weird."
"When did your Nine Nether Palace become so timid?"
A deep voice chuckled.
"Cowardly? If I weren't forced to, I would have twisted your head off and used it as a chamber pot long ago!"
"Damn it! What did you say?!"
"Stop arguing!"
A loud shout instantly silenced the crowd.
The speaker was a bald, burly man, and the most infamous among them.
"Where are the magical artifacts you applied for?!"
"It's a bald, burly man," the man said in a cold voice.
"The massacre of the city has already begun, and it will be summoned soon."
One of them said in a cold voice.
"Same here."
The other real people chimed in.
"Once the celestial artifact arrives, we'll go and have a go at that woman again. The grand formation up there has already been activated. As long as we can hold out for a month, we'll return immediately!"
"By then, even if this woman wants to set up the formation, it will be too late to collect the materials!"
The burly man spoke slowly.
"Fellow Daoist Hong is absolutely right. After I kill that woman, I will definitely cut off the heads of everyone in Biyou Palace and make them into a bed to whip every day!"
"Hahaha! Give me the men, and you can have the women!"
Upon hearing this, everyone burst into knowing laughter, completely forgetting the scene of being brutally murdered by Ji Huanxue a few days ago.
While everyone was chatting and laughing, two groups of people were quietly gathering on a cliff a thousand miles away.
One group of people were wrapped in red cloaks, while the other group was wrapped in black coats.
The red team climbed up from the bottom of the cliff, while the black team came from Biyou Palace, crossing mountains and valleys.
These two groups were naturally the Yin Yang Palace and Bi You Palace, who came to exchange materials for setting up the formation.
The leader of the red team was a burly man with a scar on his face. With a wave of his hand, a man stepped forward and handed him a package.
"The first batch of materials is all here."
Scarface said in a deep voice.
One of the men from the black team stepped forward, took the package, opened it, and nodded to the team leader.
"Alright, the craftsmen for the statue have been gathered, a total of 185 people."
The captain of the black team then spoke.
"Therefore, the next transaction will be in three days."
Scarface nodded upon hearing this, without saying anything more. Instead, he led his men back to the edge of the cliff and then quickly climbed down the vines hanging on the cliff.
After the people from Yin Yang Palace left, the black team took out the materials from their packages, quickly packed them into new packages, and then retreated rapidly.
They needed to reach a safe area before dark, otherwise, if they were surrounded by the allied forces, their entire group would probably be wiped out.
On the other side, the scarred man and his group quickly climbed to the bottom of the cliff.
At the bottom of the cliff stood a person who seemed to have been waiting for them for a long time.
"Deacon Ding, the items have been successfully handed over."
Scarface clasped his hands in a fist salute to the young man.
This person was none other than Ding Yi, who had come from Biyou Palace.
The reason Ding Yi came here in person was twofold: first, to ensure the smooth progress of the transaction; and second, naturally, to tamper with the materials.
These materials represent a significant financial burden for the Yin-Yang Palace. If it weren't for the Zhao siblings keeping order, the palace would likely have descended into chaos.
Ding Yi, on the other hand, was concerned that if the woman successfully completed the great formation and delayed until the source image was completed, she might take the materials here with her.
After all, if it were Ding Yi, he would have done the same without hesitation.
This realm of humans and animals holds too many secrets; destruction is the best outcome. Moreover, these precious materials are not ordinary items in the Upper Realm.
Therefore, Ding Yi added some entries to each piece of material.
The three attributes, namely "cannot be removed after embedding," "enhances defense," and "can be filled," elevate these materials to a new level of strategic importance.
However, strengthening each of these materials took more than a hundred years of his lifespan, and Ding Yi consumed a thousand years of his lifespan in this first transaction alone.
At that moment, Ding Yi looked up at the fledgling eagle soaring above the cliff top and murmured:
"A thousand years pass in the blink of an eye; who can be eternally immortal? Only I, Ding Yi..."
