#3527 - Saint Level: Phoenix Mountain (I)
Seeing the astonished expression on Sophie's face, Qin Bu Yi thoughtfully explained:
"The Great Golden Immortal level I'm talking about is exactly what you think it is."
This single sentence plunged Sophie into complete silence...
She knew Qin Bu Yi had methods to enhance the foundation of his army.
She hadn't expected his methods to be so heaven-defying.
He could even create subordinates at the Great Golden Immortal level.
Now, asking her how long she could hold out...
The implication was very clear.
If the Hongmeng Faction's foundation were to reach that level one day, it would inevitably attract the covetous eyes of other Saint-level forces on the Divine Continent.
It might even attract the attention of Saints... and the situation would become very bad.
Qin Bu Yi was asking her now to prepare for the future.
Sophie pondered for a few breaths and then said, "Rest assured and enhance the Hongmeng Faction's foundation. Leave everything else to me."
With Sophie's words, Qin Bu Yi was completely relieved.
This guy was still quite reliable.
Leaving the City Lord's mansion, Qin Bu Yi found Wang Tian and Emily.
"Find five Grade A forces within a short period and attack them simultaneously."
This simple sentence stunned Wang Tian and Emily.
On second thought, with the Hongmeng Faction's current foundation, dealing with five Grade A forces shouldn't be a big problem.
Wang Tian said, "Emperor Qin, this action against five Grade A forces is likely to expose us."
Qin Bu Yi's voice was very calm, "I've already thought about the possibility of exposure. If we're exposed, so be it!"
"It's also time to let the surrounding Grade A forces understand their place."
Over the years, the Hongmeng Faction had deterred many Grade A forces, but there were still some who harbored wishful thinking.
Their wishful thinking lay in gambling on when the Hongmeng Faction would attack them.
And whether they would be completely wiped out...
The Hongmeng Faction's major action quickly focused the attention of internal creatures.
There was no way around it; this time, the Hongmeng Faction's action was too big!
The army was constantly being mobilized to other places like a tide.
"My heavens, what is our Hongmeng Faction going to do this time? Are we planning to annex all the surrounding forces? Otherwise, it's impossible to mobilize so many troops. You have to know that the foundation of our Hongmeng Faction's army has now reached a uniform Seventh Grade Life-Death Dao Realm level, which is invincible in the surrounding area."
"It's too early to say invincible. Who knows what Lord Qin Emperor wants to do this time? In my opinion, expanding territory isn't a bad thing. If our Hongmeng Faction wants to truly gain a foothold on the Divine Continent, this step is essential! You have to know that the Divine Continent's structure is inherently a struggle between the Chaos God Race and the Ferocious Beast Race."
"Now that we, the Hongmeng Faction, have appeared out of thin air, if we don't use some thunderous methods, we will inevitably be targeted jointly by the Chaos God Race and the Ferocious Beast Race. Then our situation will become very passive. While the beast tide hasn't ended, let's increase our territory so that we have more room to maneuver when we really encounter trouble in the future."
"Our Hongmeng Faction's current actions will terrify the other Grade A forces! Those Grade A forces that haven't fled our surrounding area have simply been gambling on whether we will attack them. Now the result is out: they've lost their bet! In the near future, we'll probably see them fleeing for their lives."
...
The Hongmeng Faction's actions did indeed chill the Grade A forces in the area.
With such a large action, who knew whose head the butcher's knife would fall on.
Whether it was a Grade A force of the Chaos God Race or the Ferocious Beast Race, they all made the same decision.
And that was to run! The further the better!
Regarding these fleeing Grade A forces, Qin Bu Yi didn't order a complete extermination.
This time, he was only targeting five Grade A forces.
The other Grade A forces fleeing already meant they were vacating their territory.
A cornered dog will jump over a wall. Forcing people into a desperate situation at this time was clearly not a wise decision.
Expanding a force requires a balance between relaxation and control!
Pushing the enemy to the point of desperation... is equivalent to pushing oneself into a dead end.
When occupying an advantage, especially in such a large territory as the Divine Continent, it's best to leave some space.
That was what Qin Bu Yi thought.
Anyway, his ultimate goal was to occupy the entire Divine Continent, so there was no need to rush things.
The leaders of these forces who fled the Hongmeng area originally thought that Qin Emperor would send people to pursue them relentlessly.
Who could have imagined that they would escape so easily.
Some force leaders felt a little unwilling in their hearts.
They felt like they had run out too early!
"We are like startled birds. As soon as the Hongmeng Faction makes a slight move, we flee for our lives. Isn't this a bit too timid and laughable? The Hongmeng Faction isn't necessarily targeting us this time. We should ask ourselves, where do we have the qualifications to make the Hongmeng Faction target us like this!"
"What did you just say? The Hongmeng Faction's action is a small one this time? When you say this, don't you feel like you're deceiving yourself? How could this be a small action! The Hongmeng army is constantly being mobilized. I'm sure that if we don't flee in time, we will definitely become ghosts under the Hongmeng knife. I know what everyone is thinking in their hearts."
"It's nothing more than being reluctant to part with the territory you've accumulated over the years. Think about it from another perspective. We can regain the territory in the future if it's gone. If we go head-to-head with the Hongmeng Faction's army now, we will even lose the chance to live. As long as we're alive, we have infinite opportunities."
"Alas, we don't necessarily want to go head-to-head with the Hongmeng Faction's army. It's just that we feel a bit unhappy leaving like this! The Hongmeng army hasn't done anything, or rather, their actions don't have a clear direction, but we subconsciously think that they are targeting us."
...
In the vicinity of the Hongmeng Faction, many Grade A forces have fled overnight over the years.
This time was no exception.
As Wang Tian and Emily locked onto five Grade A forces and launched a full-scale war.
These fleeing Grade A force leaders suddenly felt less unwilling.
Their hearts seemed to feel instantly more comfortable.
They thought that if they hadn't fled at the first moment, they might have been targeted by the Hongmeng Faction.
Now the Hongmeng Faction's foundation is too terrifying! How could they possibly defeat an army of uniformly Seventh Grade Life-Death Dao Realm cultivators!
After seeing his own army clash with the scheduled Grade A forces, Qin Bu Yi opened the system shop and began to exchange for the pills needed for the next battle.
As the Hongmeng Faction's top combat power, if he didn't take action.
It would still be somewhat difficult to easily take down five Grade A forces.
[Ninetieth Order · Legend Hundred Kill Pill · Full: The user gains one hundred and five chances to fully restore their physical strength. At the same time, all attributes are increased by 3,000% until the end of the battle. Value: 500 million points of the Divine Demon System Shop points.]
(Warm reminder: This is an advanced version of [Ninetieth Order · Legend Hundred Kill Pill]. No need to accumulate kills. Take it to get the full effect of the Hundred Kill Pill!)
[Ninetieth Order · Legend Ten Strike Pill: The user can unleash 500% of their combat power in the next ten attacks without any side effects. Price: 500 million points of the Divine Demon System Shop points.]
Spending one billion Divine Demon points, he exchanged for these two pills.
The Divine Demon System Shop point balance became 9.2 billion points.
After swallowing these two pills, the combat power in Qin Bu Yi's body soared...
"After cleaning up these Grade A forces this time, I should try to have a go with the Saint-level forces."
Qin Bu Yi had not forgotten that the Saint-level forces of the Chaos God Race and the Ferocious Beast Race had simultaneously sent representatives over many years ago, but the process was very unpleasant.
Now the Hongmeng Faction, even among the Grade A forces, was the top tier.
Naturally, he had to set his sights higher.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed...
During this month, Qin Bu Yi took action to completely defeat five Grade A forces.
At the same time, he expanded the Hongmeng Faction's territory to a size larger than that of an ordinary Saint-level force.
The creatures in the Hongmeng Faction were somewhat drumming in their hearts when they saw their own force expand its territory so blatantly.
Before, they could crush the Grade A forces and be unscrupulous among them.
Now that their territory had expanded to the level of a Saint-level force, it meant that they would likely have to fight the Saint-level forces in the future!
As the saying goes, a big tree attracts the wind...
"I thought Lord Qin Emperor's expansion of territory was just a small fight, but I didn't expect him to directly expand our Hongmeng Faction to be no less than an ordinary Saint-level force. Isn't this equivalent to a child wielding a big knife? It's easy to get hurt. I think it would be safer for us to continue maintaining our previous expansion speed."
"Our previous territory wasn't much worse than a Saint-level force. This time, all the Grade A forces around us ran away, and those vacant territories would be a waste if we left them there. I agree with Lord Qin Emperor's approach to directly incorporate them into our Hongmeng Faction."
"Lord Qin Emperor isn't a reckless man who never thinks before doing things. He must have his own intentions for doing so. Isn't it just dealing with Saint-level forces? If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. What's more, Lord Qin Emperor has always been unfathomable. Even if a Quasi-Saint comes to deal with us, he can turn danger into safety."
"Besides, our Hongmeng Faction doesn't only have Lord Qin Emperor, but also City Lord Sophie. Although City Lord Sophie has rarely taken action over the years, don't forget that every time City Lord Sophie takes action, it's earth-shattering! I believe we have the foundation of a Saint-level force!"
...
In the City Lord's mansion.
Sophie said to Qin Bu Yi, "After this expansion, the Grade A forces won't dare to provoke us anymore."
"If I'm not mistaken, you will target the Saint-level forces next, right?"
Qin Bu Yi did not deny his inner thoughts.
He wanted to attack the Saint-level forces.
Even if he couldn't annex a complete Saint-level force now, at least with Sophie around, it would be enough to be invincible.
