Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor-Chapter 1065 First Planar War (I)

1065 First Planar War (I)

"I am," said Ao Shen, who immediately stepped forward. He did not hide the killing intent in his eyes. When he was in the Martial Hegemony World, those bastard martial artists hunted him relentlessly, especially the people from the Rising Dragon Sect. They wanted to use his blood, body, and soul to cultivate their Dragon Subduing Scripture to a level on par with their ancestors. Now that he had a chance at revenge, he would not hesitate.

"Are you sure?" asked Wang Wei. From his knowledge, Ao Shen should still be in the process of refining his artifact and focusing on increasing his strength.

"I am."

Wang Wei secretly groaned. He did not want the demon race to be the vanguard of this war, as a tiny part of him still wanted to convince the Martial Hegemony World to surrender after seeing how pointless it was to fight. Adding demon and human relationship to the situation might complicate things.

However, after thinking about it for a while, he realized such thinking was pointless. This war is an issue of worlds against worlds, not the human race against other races.

"Very well. Who else?"

"I will also participate," said Huo Fenghuang, offering her services. This war was the first step in their Ancient Clan's revival, so she wanted to go out and get as many benefits as possible. In the future, after other world communities see it's impossible to stop their expansion, many worlds will not resist, and the Heavenly Emperor is prone to using diplomatic means instead of war. As such, Huo Fenghuang plans to participate in all the wars to benefit.

"Excellent. What about you two?" Wang Wei looked at Feng Heng and Xu Shi. "The more the merrier. I want this war to end as soon as possible."

"My apologies, but with my relationship with the Martial Hegemony World, it's best that I don't participate," replied Xu Shi, who cupped her hands and bowed. She would also prevent the Academy from sending their legions and people if it were up to her. However, she understood the benefits of this war, so she did not stop them.

"This poor monk will not participate personally, but I will send sect members to partake and assist," replied Feng Heng while playing with his prayer beads. His focus was now on this new branch of Buddhism, so he had no time for war despite the obvious benefits. Honestly speaking, he was against participating in this war since he did not want his monks to have too much karma. Sadly, he knew he would receive criticism if he did not send people; some would accuse him of preserving strength and making a big deal of the situation. Lastly, many sect members do not want to give up the benefits.

"That's fine," nodded Wang Wei before looking at the two Immortal Sovereigns. "What about you?"

"The Sea Race will send people, but I will not participate."

"I have no issue participating, but I don't think they need my help," replied Jian Sha, smiling wryly. He noticed Huo Fenghuang's gaze ever since he walked into this room. He feared this woman would secretly plot to kill him during this war, so he used this excuse to excuse himself while also telling the Heavenly Emperor he was indeed interested.

Wang Wei's eyes looked at him before shifting to the calm Huo Fenghuang and back to him, "You can be the backup. You will be the first to be called up if something unexpected occurs."

"Your majesty is wise."

"Now that we have our top powerhouses, let's discuss the issue of legion and battle deployment," continued Wang Wei. "I have elected a Battlefield Commander based on the Military Legion List." With a motion of his hand, someone walked to the front of the room: Tie Gang.

Tie Gang bowed politely to the room before waving his wand to show a projection.

"The enemy will now allow us to descend into their world, and it will not be easy to bypass their World Protection Formation," stated Tie Gang. If his boss would intervene, this would not be a problem, but that's not going to happen, unfortunately.

"As such, the first battle will occur in the void outside the Martial Hegemony World, so your legion must be composed of at least Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators, and formation must be used to keep them alive."

Many people listened intently as they did not consider this aspect. They immediately realize that Inter-Planar Wars were not simple. The Myriad Emperor World has been isolated from the Endless Void for far too long and is now less experienced in this kind of warfare.

"The battlefield will be divided into four layers, each separated by a formation," continued Tie Gang, manifesting a visual projection similar to holograms of four layers. "At the bottom is where all the legions will confront each other. The second layer is for Mortal Combatants who do not want to be restrained by the army's strict discipline. The third layer is for Immortal Combatants, and the last is for the Eternal Class Powerhouses. Any questions?"

"Yes, I have one," asked a representative. "What if the enemy does not attend the corresponding layer?"

"That's what the formations are for. They will filter individuals and place them in the correct layer."

"What if they destroy the formation?"

"The formations are not so easy to destroy, especially since each layer is a well-crafted world. And if you do your job correctly, the enemy won't have the time or opportunity to destroy them," replied Tie Gang. "Anything else?"

A few people had more questions, and Tie Gang answered all of them. Finally, he said, "We will discuss a new plan once we break their defense and enter their world. Lastly, we will deploy a week later. Be prepared."

"Isn't that a little too short?"

"No, on the contrary, it's too long," replied Tie Gang. "With time dilation, after seven days, more than three months will have passed in the enemy's world."

This fact slipped the minds of many people. So now, they realize how little time they have. A few wiser representatives looked at the Heavenly Emperor, hoping he would do something about this issue. However, Wang Wei remained the same, taking the position that he would not interfere unless absolutely necessary. Many people felt relieved by this fact since his presence would mean the job would be done instantly, leaving nothing for them.

Tie Gang took his position back in the assembly, and Wang Wei continued the meeting, "All professionals of Earth Rank will meet in the Dream World. You will work with the Cauldrons to refine materials for this war."

'Will the Dream World have new functions?' thought Xu Shi, and she was not the only person who noticed this slip of information.

"The resources used in this war will not be counted as military merit, but someone will record the amount, and everyone will be reimbursed afterward," continued Wang Wei. "I believe this is it for now unless someone has any questions or concerns?"

No one had any questions since everything was straightforward or already explained. So, Wang Wei waved his hand to send them the information from Daoist Evergreen about how to treat the natives once this world is conquered.

"A few parting words," said Wang Wei. "This war will be our official return to the Endless Void after too long. We cannot fail, especially due to in-fighting. Am I understood?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Wang Wei dismissed everybody while waiting for things to be set in place. He had many objectives for this war, including gathering enough data about the Interplanar War and adding it to the Battle Tower. Then, everybody can stimulate other wars to be as fast and efficient as possible in the other expansions. So, he was prepared to use different tactics and even hoped the Martial Hegemony World would put up more of a fight so he could collect more data.

Soon after the meeting's end, countless military strategists arrived in the court to participate in the War Room. A formation that would broadcast a live feed of the war had already been established. The professionals had also organized and began working. The cauldrons were activated to the highest level. Since they contained a large world inside, they could refine more than one pill at a time.

Each profession chose an Insurgent Tier Powerhouse as their manager to ensure high productivity.

The whole world entered a state of mobilization, and that includes mortals. They wanted to participate in lower-tier battles (Tier 1-4), and many people began to voice their opinions in the Dream World, hoping the Heavenly Emperor would hear them.

The Mortal Craft and Art Dao clans remained quiet since they could not participate in this fight. Their world was essentially invading another, so they could not use their power from the temple in such an act of aggression. As such, they can only remain quiet on the sideline. Of course, not everyone remained quiet.

Many scholars or philosophers condemned this invasion, writing poems, articles, essays, and books condemning the Heavenly Emperor's actions. Wang Wei noticed them as there were many small-scale visions from these written words.

These people reminded him of Confuciunists from Earth who would condemn the Emperor for his actions, forcing the latter to kill them. Their purpose is to leave a name in history and ruin the reputation of the Emperor for all eternity.

These families had the same mindset but did not realize he could wipe them out of history so that no one would ever remember them. Ultimately, Wang Wei just ignored them as their actions had no effect.
