Chapter 1657: Chapter 1448: Counterplot? Who Isn’t?
The three-legged tripod of power did not last for long.
The third round of war erupted swiftly.
A respite of ten eras allowed all three major forces to recover their instant combat prowess.
Especially the strongest among them, the Dongyin Primitive Race, whose morale, bolstered by the continuous eradication of the Harmony Creation Home ideal, was soaring to unprecedented heights!
A large-scale offensive against the Myriad Law Conference!
With the Sky Domain Alliance acting as a diversion to hold back other divine races, the Dongyin Primitive Race launched a direct assault on the Fadu Divine Race!
Decisive and uncompromising!
Dongyin Ice Tooth personally led the army, with one after another of the Cosmic Sea True Divines under his command exuding high spirits, and their Chaos Gods fighting with fearless ferocity!
They advanced straight into the Cinder Law Divine Domain!
The Fadu Divine Race was utterly incapable of resistance.
“This is going a bit too smoothly, Young Master.” Dong Bo True God commented with a calm demeanor.
The resistance of the Fadu Divine Race was nearly superficial—breaking upon contact, retreating in defeat repeatedly.
“Could there be a trap?” the Seamless Goddess speculated.
Dongyin Ice Tooth merely chuckled lightly: “Are you worried that the Sky Domain Alliance will turn against us?”
“The possibility is quite high.” Dong Bo True God’s gaze was sharp as a blade: “The Sky Domain Alliance has always had strong ties with the Myriad Law Conference. Although we were the ones to propose this plan to attack the Myriad Law Conference, they could very well counterplot and ambush us in return.”
“If the Myriad Law Conference and the Sky Domain Alliance join forces…” The Seamless Goddess’s expression was filled with worry.
“Let them join forces,” Dongyin Ice Tooth’s eyes gleamed with brilliance.
Dong Bo True God and the Seamless Goddess were momentarily taken aback.
They quickly caught on.
They were overthinking it.
Whatever they considered, someone as calculating as the Young Master would have surely anticipated it as well.
“I don’t understand, Young Master,” the Seamless Goddess said, her curiosity piqued.
“It’s simple,” Dongyin Ice Tooth said flatly: “If the Sky Domain Alliance truly aligns with us, the Myriad Law Conference will be doomed, and the situation will shift from a three-way division of the East Primitive Territory to a final showdown between us and the Human Great Clan Alliance.”
“Simplifying the situation is actually beneficial to both sides.”
“If the Sky Domain Alliance counterplots and collaborates with the Myriad Law Conference to attack us…” Dongyin Ice Tooth’s voice faltered briefly, his eyes flickering: “This plan of aligning with the Sky Domain Alliance was orchestrated by Empress Yin herself, persuading the Elder Council.”
“If it fails, the blame will fall squarely on her.”
“Her prestige within the clan will plummet to the lowest depths.”
“If we suffer some minor setbacks in exchange for unifying the internal factions of the Dongyin Primitive Race, it will still be worthwhile.”
The Seamless Goddess was enlightened.
Her gaze toward Dongyin Ice Tooth was brimming with admiration.
This was truly the Young Master she revered the most.
Strategic mastery, with the entire situation in the palm of his hand.
“I still don’t understand, Young Master,” Dong Bo True God interjected: “Why would Empress Yin take such a tremendous risk to align with the Sky Domain Alliance?”
“To establish authority for my foolish elder brother,” Dongyin Ice Tooth sneered coldly: “He managed to break through to become a Cosmic Sea True Divine. While that speaks of some talent and luck, it shook the stubborn Elder Council enough to waver.”
Legitimate bloodline?
Foolish and shortsighted Elder Council!
If it weren’t for the turmoil in the upper echelons of the Dongyin Primitive Race and the constant infighting over power, how could the Dongyin Primitive Race have failed to suppress the Human Great Clan Alliance? How could it have descended into the current three-legged tripod of power?
Even now, they remain indecisive!
But it doesn’t matter.
Soon, he would prove just how foolish Empress Yin was and how muddled the decisions of the Elder Council were.
The Sky Domain Alliance counterplotting?
Who isn’t?
…
Vitality Divine Domain.
The vast vitality that enveloped the entire divine domain made it brimming with life.
Yet at this moment, it was embroiled in a ‘war.’
Led by Condensed Moon True Divine, with Wang Ye, Yan Xiaonü, Feng Guang, and other Hall Masters assisting, they were attacking the Vitality Divine Race.
A feigned attack, meant to divert attention.
The same type of war erupted across many of the Ultimate Divine Domains under the Myriad Law Conference.
This prevented various divine races of the Myriad Law Conference from coming to the aid of the Fadu Divine Race, enabling the main combat force of the Dongyin Primitive Race to focus their firepower on taking down the Fadu Divine Race.
Capture the leader to secure victory!
As long as the Fadu Divine Race collapsed, the rest of the Myriad Law Conference would fall apart on its own.
“Dongyin Ice Tooth has already stepped into the trap,” Condensed Moon True Divine’s enchanting eyes sparkled.
“His suspicion toward the Sky Domain Alliance is extremely strong, so he must be guarding against us,” Wang Ye said. “But what he might never imagine is that the one who most desires to destroy him now is not us, but his half-brother.”
“It’s no longer the same Dongyin Huowen,” Condensed Moon True Divine remarked. “If Dongyin Ice Tooth still views his younger brother through his old perspective, he might suffer a massive loss this time.”
“Dark Dusk God King is incredibly ruthless,” Wang Ye noted. “He was renowned for his cutthroat and ruthless nature during the Ten Gods’ Competition. Now, unbound by clan obligations, he is even more unrestrained, driven solely by the desire to unify the East Primitive Territory.”
“Fortunately, we hold leverage over him,” Condensed Moon True Divine marveled.
For their side, watching the infighting within the Dongyin Primitive Race was nothing but beneficial.
If the Dark Dusk God King’s plan succeeded, their gains would multiply immensely!
“It’s precisely because we hold leverage over him that the Dark Dusk God King is willing to collaborate with us,” Wang Ye explained.
Feng Guang, standing nearby, spoke up: “Why don’t we consider teaming up with the Myriad Law Conference for a bold move, and take down the entire Dongyin Primitive Race in one fell swoop?”
“This is where the genius of the Dark Dusk God King lies,” Wang Ye replied. “He has preemptively given us assurance: as he besieges Dongyin Ice Tooth, we are free to attack and annihilate the Dongyin Primitive Race at will.”
“Such a risk-free strike is far more favorable than betraying him and courting other risks.”
“After all, if we collaborate with the Myriad Law Conference, can we truly guarantee that the Myriad Law Conference harbors no ulterior motives?”
“Even if the Myriad Law Conference doesn’t betray us, simply observing from the sidelines would drain us drastically, leaving us at a stalemate.”
Feng Guang let out a thoughtful hum.
Although he prided himself on his intelligence and excellent performance in various missions, his experience was still lacking in handling conflicts of such a grand scale involving power struggles and strategic arrangements.
“But with Dongyin Ice Tooth’s current strength, even if ambushed and betrayed by the Dark Dusk God King, killing him won’t be an easy task,” Yan Xiaonü remarked. “The Double Infinite Main Sequence is simply too terrifying.”
Feng Guang nodded in agreement.
