415: Watching a play

"Regardless of when the Cosmic Chamber of Commerce Alliance arrives, we might as well take the first step," True Person Yuan Ling continued slowly. "Let's head to the Silver Sea Universe first to scout them out and disrupt their footing. Remember, they have a large number of Saint Kings, and their strength cannot be underestimated. Therefore, we must be cautious in this operation. Low-level Disciples should not participate to avoid unnecessary losses."

Although Jiu You was a complete layman when it came to military strategies and formations, he carefully considered what True Person Yuan Ling had said and felt that there was indeed truth in his words.

The strength of the Silver Sea Universe was formidable; if low-level Disciples were allowed to participate indiscriminately, it would likely only increase casualties without providing any benefit.

Thus, Jiu You immediately nodded in agreement and chimed in, "What the Immortal Master says is absolutely correct. We should indeed concentrate our elite forces and avoid senseless sacrifices."

In this way, after a brief discussion, the two of them casually made the major decision to attack the Silver Sea Universe.

Subsequently, they delayed no further and accelerated their return to the Yuan Ling Universe, preparing to deploy their actions as quickly as possible, hoping to settle the Silver Sea Universe before the Cosmic Chamber of Commerce Alliance arrived.

Bai Lang, as the prominent Head of the Combat Department within the Cosmic Chamber of Commerce Alliance, after careful consideration, resolutely decided to personally set foot in that distant Silver Sea Universe.

His purpose for this trip was very clear: he wanted to personally investigate exactly which corner this mysterious expert had emerged from, someone so audacious that they dared to publicly disregard the majesty and Face of their Cosmic Chamber of Commerce Alliance.

Consequently, with Bai Huang's deliberate push, Bai Lang's itinerary was greatly accelerated, and his arrival speed far exceeded True Person Yuan Ling's prior expectations.

Just as the six Saint Kings of the Yuan Ling Universe were fighting wantonly and slaughtering in all directions within the Silver Sea Universe, Bai Lang's figure quietly descended upon this war-torn base continent.

By this time, nearly two months had quietly slipped away since Xun Xiuyuan began his secluded Cultivation.

Watching the incredibly fierce battle before him, Bai Lang appeared exceptionally indifferent, unable to muster even a shred of interest, let alone any intention to intervene.

He simply stood there silently, wordlessly enveloping the entire Silver Sea Universe base with his powerful World Power. Like a bystander removed from the situation, he watched the brutal slaughter between the six Saint Kings of the Yuan Ling Universe and the forces of the Silver Sea Universe with a hint of playfulness.

The terrifying strength of an Eight-System Saint King was by no means something that anyone fighting below, including True Person Yuan Ling, could fathom or understand.

In this chaotic battle, aside from True Person Yuan Ling, who sensed a trace of abnormality through his keen perception, everyone else was completely unaware of Bai Lang's quiet arrival, as if he did not exist at all.

At that moment, a loyal subordinate behind Bai Lang spoke respectfully, "Lord Minister, I request to go ahead to the battlefield where General Wu unfortunately fell. I wish to use the Time Retrospection Technique to investigate carefully and see if I can track the culprit who killed General Wu."

Upon hearing this, Bai Lang merely nodded slightly, indicating that the subordinate could proceed with the mission. He himself maintained his transcendent posture, continuing to coldly observe the fierce struggle between the Universes.

Deep within True Person Yuan Ling's heart, that sense of unease surged like a tide, becoming increasingly heavy.

After just repelling a powerful Saint King, he quickly gathered the remaining people. His brow was furrowed, and his eyes were filled with doubt as he tensely scanned every corner of the surroundings, trying to find the source of that unease.

Seeing True Person Yuan Ling like this, Jiu You also felt a faint sense of unease and couldn't help but ask, "What exactly happened? Why have you suddenly become so tense?"

Although the Yuan Ling Universe's team was small, consisting of only six people, they were the undisputed aggressors on this vast battlefield.

Their every move and every decision influenced the direction of the entire battle.

Whether they chose to continue the offensive or decided to retreat temporarily was entirely up to their momentary decision.

Because of this, when these six people suddenly chose to retreat, everyone in the Silver Sea Universe let out a collective sigh of relief.

Although they were numerous, they had been in a difficult defensive state all along, already suffering heavy casualties and utter exhaustion. The opponent's retreat was undoubtedly a temporary reprieve for them.

They did not yet know that if Xun Xiuyuan had not been absent, this battle would likely have ended long ago.

Xun Xiuyuan could be called a "humanoid war harvester"; his combat strength was so great that it could turn the tide of battle in an instant.

True Person Yuan Ling once again carefully investigated the surrounding environment, but the doubt in his heart only grew stronger.

The Law in the space did not seem to have undergone any obvious changes, yet it felt somehow different in certain subtle ways. This subtle sensation was extremely difficult for him to grasp.

"I constantly feel as though someone is secretly watching us, and a sense of inexpressible unease is welling up in my heart. This feeling is truly strange and hard to describe with words."

True Person Yuan Ling spoke slowly, answering Jiu You's previous question. His voice was low and solemn, revealing the deep concern in his heart.

Mortal World looked at True Person Yuan Ling with a grave gaze, anxiety in her tone: "Sect Master, the current situation is so thorny. How should we respond next?"

Just as True Person Yuan Ling frowned slightly, about to give a response.

Suddenly, a voice tinged with playfulness drifted from the Void Realm, as if coming from the horizon: "Hey, keep going. Why stop all of a sudden? This good show has only just begun; I haven't seen enough yet."

Although the voice was not loud, it seemed to possess the power to penetrate everything, entering the minds of everyone present directly. It was as clear as a whisper in the ear; even those who had lost their hearing could not escape the invasion of this sound.

Upon hearing the voice, True Person Yuan Ling's expression changed abruptly because, at the moment the voice sounded, he actually managed to vaguely capture the other party's location.

This kind of power was definitely not something a Seven-System Saint King could emit. True Person Yuan Ling knew that someone from the Cosmic Chamber of Commerce Alliance must have arrived.

Meanwhile, Bai Lang, hidden in the shadows, noticed True Person Yuan Ling's gaze sweeping toward his location and couldn't help but feel a surge of surprise: "This seemingly ordinary Native's perception is actually so powerful that he could silently detect my hiding place."

"It seems his cultivation has reached a fairly high Realm, only a step away from the legendary Eight-System Saint King."

"Such a gifted and extraordinary seedling—if he could be brought back to headquarters for careful cultivation, he would surely become a great talent in the future."

Bai Lang's inner thoughts were extremely active; he was both surprised by True Person Yuan Ling's strength and secretly calculating how to bring this Cultivator of infinite potential into his own sphere of influence.
