Chapter 2084 - 2088: Experts Pressing In!

"The Elder Council..."

Qin Tian murmured the name, feeling a bit frustrated.

The previous Elder Council of the Demon Clan was filled with Flying Immortal Realm giants, leaving Qin Tian only able to look up to them, not daring to confront them.

And now, another Elder Council emerges from the Tianyuan Dynasty?

Previously, Qin Tian had hardly heard of the existence of the Elder Council within the Tianyuan Dynasty, but from Zuo Yuanhao's expressions and tone, he knew that the strength of this Elder Council was likely not weaker than that of the Demon Clan's.

"How many members are in the Tianyuan Dynasty's Elder Council? Are they all powerhouses above the Flying Immortal Realm?"

Qin Tian curiously asked Zuo Yuanhao.

"There shouldn't be many. Rumor has it that there were five, about a dozen years ago, but likely fewer now, as one or two may have ascended. Given that the superpowerful in the Spiritual Domain, upon breaking through the Flying Immortal Realm, would not be content to remain in the Spiritual Domain allowing their cultivation to stagnate, so once they break through, they surely seek ways to ascend to the Immortal Domain."

Zuo Yuanhao said, seeing as everyone was astonished, he then laughed: "Flying Immortal Realm, ascension... these terms are too distant for us, and essentially unlikely... haha, only the dynastic royals, with unparalleled talent, have a chance to ascend. We, well... should be content to remain in the Spiritual Domain."

After Zuo Yuanhao spoke, everyone's gaze was fixed on Qin Tian.

"Why are you all staring at me? Discussing the issue, why do you look at me?" Qin Tian felt helpless.

Lin Yu said, "Boss, you are a descendant of the Tianyuan Dynasty's royal family, and your strength has reached the Flying Immortal Realm now. You stand a good chance to ascend in the future."

"Ascend? Why would I ascend? The Spiritual Domain is quite good."

Qin Tian blinked, obviously not revealing his true thoughts at this moment.

"King Qin, you may think so now, but when you reach the peak of the Flying Immortal Realm, feeling invincible in the Spiritual Domain and finding life dull and meaningless, you might change your mind."

Zuo Yuanhao said: "According to ancient books passed down from the Immortal Domain, a Flying Immortal Realm powerhouse who can walk unimpeded in our Spiritual Domain is merely ordinary in the Immortal Domain. The Flying Immortal Realm is said to be the lowest level of cultivation among the immortality cultivators in the Immortal Domain..."

Woah!

As Zuo Yuanhao said this, everyone around dropped their jaws in shock.

Flying Immortal Realm, the lowest cultivation level? Is this a joke!?

"Alright, alright, you're getting sidetracked. Let's return to researching the matter of the Ice Emperor's expedition."

Qin Tian guided everyone's attention back to the main topic: "So, the Ice Emperor plans to lead only two hundred and fifty thousand troops, then bring along numerous top experts, perhaps even one or two elders from the Tianyuan Dynasty's Elder Council. If this is the case, how do we respond?"

Everyone fell into an immediate silence.

Zhao Lanjin said, "If the Ice Emperor really brought the elders of the Elder Council out of seclusion, we might... be in for some trouble. Should two elders come, they being peerless powerhouses beyond the Flying Immortal Realm, along with the Ice Emperor at the Flying Immortal Realm, three supreme beings of the Flying Immortal Realm; our West State Army, with one or two hundred thousand troops, cannot match them, they're like ants..."

Everyone scratched their heads; undoubtedly, Zhao Lanjin was speaking the truth.

Instantly, upon hearing Zhao Lanjin's words, everyone was somewhat despondent.

In the Spiritual Domain World, strength reigns supreme, a single superpower outmatches a whole army.

This is the talisman that has allowed them to repeatedly triumph over weaker armies previously.

But in truth, when facing superpowers like War God and the Ice Emperor, he hasn't yet truly clashed with them, the victor remains uncertain.

"We can only make comprehensive preparations." Qin Tian pressed his lips and said, "If an enemy comes, we will counter them. There will be a way."

After the meeting, everyone felt a bit powerless.

Because the final number of troops the Ice Emperor will deploy hasn't been confirmed, Xu Kuan has only been tasked with strengthening the defense of Yueya City, with no further deployments for now.

Afterwards, Zhou Yang, who had been brooding, sought out Qin Tian and said, "Boss, if the Ice Emperor indeed brings a large number of experts, then we too should request external assistance."

Qin Tian looked at Zhou Yang: "Seek external aid? From whom?"

"The Demon Clan's Elder Council." Zhou Yang said, "We have a good relationship with the Demon Clan, and with Fei'er as the link, seeking help from them should not be refused."

"Boss, most members of the Demon Clan's Elder Council are also Flying Immortal Realm powerhouses. Across the entire Spiritual Domain land, capable of standing against the Tianyuan Dynasty, I believe only the Demon Clan's Elder Council can. Therefore, I think we must try it."

Qin Tian nodded at Zhou Yang's suggestion. At this time, facing the aggressive attacks from the Ice Emperor, seeking help from the Demon Clan's Elder Council was indeed an excellent strategy.

However, Qin Tian was concerned that the always proud Demon Clan's Elder Council might not be easily moved.

"Alright, I will visit the Demon Clan's Elder Council with Fei'er in the near future to request their aid."

Qin Tian nodded. After Zhou Yang left, it wasn't long before Zuo Yuanhao came again.

Coming at this time, Zuo Yuanhao undoubtedly had something to say.

"Strategist Zuo, have you thought of any methods?" Qin Tian asked directly.

"So far, I believe that in order to confront a Flying Immortal Realm powerhouse, we must also enlist a Flying Immortal Realm powerhouse to contend with them. Otherwise, it is hard to win this war." Zuo Yuanhao sat down on a chair opposite and slowly said.

"Old Zhou has already suggested leveraging our relationship with the Demon Clan to invite the Demon Clan's Elder Council out of seclusion." Qin Tian said.

"Oh, he was a step ahead of me." Zuo Yuanhao faintly smiled and said, "However, we cannot place our fate entirely in the hands of the Demon Clan's Elder Council. Our previous encounters with them showed they are of considerable pride, and unwilling to leave their closed cultivation sites, making it difficult to ask for their aid."

"Therefore, I've been thinking, could we also invite Long Yin to assist in West State? I'm referring to Long Yin's top experts."

Zuo Yuanhao looked at Qin Tian and said, "I haven't seen many of Long Yin's experts, but I've heard that Mr. Shenyue is someone of exceptional cultivation. From what I've gathered, his cultivation is either nearing the Flying Immortal Realm or at the peak or late stage of the Great Immortal Realm. With his help, we might be better able to handle this."

"Moreover, I've heard that within Long Yin, there are quite a few Great Immortal Realm experts who could compete with those in the Soul Suppressing Hall, now called the Dragon Slayer Department. Since we are allies now, and they too face difficulties in the Imperial City, why not invite them to West State to jointly oppose the Ice Emperor? It is a perfect opportunity for them to eliminate the Ice Emperor."
