Chapter 283: Chapter 263: The Enemy Falls to a Brilliant Strategy

Translator: 549690339

How many of the Nine Unity-Path Experts from the Five Elder Organization perished, the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals did not disclose in their announcement.

But their heavy losses were undeniable.

Otherwise, the haughty Five Elder Organization wouldn’t retreat its troops and switch from offense to defense within an instant, in the same way a toothless tiger would.

In this incident, the only publicly known casualty was a Unity-Path Cultivator.

Surprisingly, he belonged to the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

Not killed in battle, but executed.

Because, he was a spy.

A spy who had remained hidden within the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals for nearly a thousand years, undetected by anyone.

Having a venerable status, until his true identity was revealed, no one could suspect him as a spy for the Five Elders Organization.

Tianyu province, Immortal Master Zi Chang.

Commanding the Martial Arts Battle Hall Headquarters of the Immortal Alliance, a high position beyond measure.

It was precisely due to Immortal Master Zi Chang secretly delivering the information, and the Five Elders Organization confirming through probing, that they absolutely believed the news of a “Unity-Path Cultivator on the verge of becoming the Immortal Sovereign”.

Thereby resulting in the highly risky strategic move of “dispatching Nine Unity-Path Cultivators deep into enemy lines”.

For it was not the first time.

In the previous few operations, the Five Elders tasted great success.

The last one involved an ambush on the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven.

Yes, back then, the one who leaked the information about the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven was also Immortal Master Zi Chang.

His subordinates received a distress signal from the exploratory team, hoping the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals Headquarters could send assistance, to relocate the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven.

As for the value of this Cave Heaven, Immortal Master Zi Chang knew much more than most people in the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

So, he stealthily relayed the message to the Five Elders Organization.

That’s why the Five Elders were able to respond so swiftly, even arriving before the support from the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

Even if they faced the chase of the Eight Unity-Path Cultivators dispatched by the infuriated Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

With the high-status Immortal Master Zi Chang leaking the information, the Five Elders had complete knowledge of their personnel arrangements.

If it wasn’t for the unexpected incident.

A God Transformation cultivator overlooked by the team, unexpectedly burst forth with a power comparable to Unity-Path, against all odds turned the tide of the seemingly inevitable defeat.

The eight Unity-Path Cultivators who were in charge of the chase might have ended up perishing on the battlefield.

However, even so, the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals bled heavily in this incident.

While the Five Elders Organization also suffered some losses, they were entirely tolerable compared with the gains made.

The only regret was that the sudden occurrence of the event meant that there was not enough time to mobilize sufficient manpower.

The mission to steal the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven was deemed a failure.

Regardless, as the deepest spy for the Five Elder Organization within the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, the information provided by Immortal Master Zi Chang was undoubtedly trustworthy.

Therefore, even though the act of “dispatching Nine Unity-Path Cultivators deep into enemy territory” theoretically carried an extremely high risk.

The Five Elders Organization still decided to proceed.

As a result, they fell into the trap carefully set up by the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

The Alliance of Thousands of Immortals had long resented the inexplicable leak of information regarding the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven.

The cultivator’s name was not provided in the announcement.

He was only referred to as “Lone Hero”.

One of Lone Hero’s good friends was one of the eight Unity-Path Cultivators involved in the chase.

Sworn to duty and mourning his friend’s death.

Lone Hero vowed to find the spy hidden within the Headquarters of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

After the Celestial Spirit State War ended, an internal investigation was initiated by the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

Lone Hero was in charge of this task.

Unfortunately, Immortal Master Zi Chang’s status was too high and his disguise too effective.

Even with some suspicion, without solid evidence, nothing could be done to him.

The end result was that the matter was inexplicably dropped.

Nevertheless, Lone Hero did not give up easily.

A daring plan was hatched in his heart.

To put it simply, it was nothing more than a “lure tactic”.

But the plan involved considerable risks, a slight miscalculation could lead to absolute failure.

Lone Hero was initially hesitant.

But he ultimately withstood the pressure and gradually set the plan in motion.

Gradually, the news that a Unity-Path cultivator of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals was about to realize immortality began to circulate quietly among the higher echelons of the alliance.

Many Unity-Path Cultivators received invitations to assist and were nowhere to be found.

Immortal Master Zi Chang, of course, also heard about this news.

However, he could not confirm the accuracy of the news.

On top of that, he was just under scrutiny not long ago and had not completely shaken off the suspicions.

Zi Chang decided not to risk personally verifying the validity of this piece of information.

However, this matter was too significant to ignore.

If a new Immortal Sovereign is born in the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals…

After much hesitation, Zi Chang passed the news on to the Five Elder Organization.

He simply asked the Five Elder Organization to verify it for themselves.

The Five Elder Organization attached great importance to this news.

Just as a Sect Ruin suddenly descended on Jiushan Province, the border between the two sides, attracting the attention of countless cultivators.

The Five Elders Organization took this opportunity to send a God Transforming cultivator with great fanfare to provoke and probe.

The reaction of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals was odd.

They issued a stern warning, stating that any who dare come would face death.

However, they only sent a mere few God Transforming cultivators to oversee the situation.

Since when could a God Transforming cultivator hold such a position?

Where are the many Unity-Path cultivators of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals at this moment?

If they do not have a Unity-Path cultivator to hold the fort.

Even if they do not use any other forces, sending this God Transformation cultivator named Luo Xi alone to face the challenge.

In Jiushan Province, with only God Transforming cultivators present, could the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals do anything to him?

The Alliance of Thousands of Immortals clearly knows this.

Could it be that they swallowed their pride after being slapped in the face?

What happened?

The so-called stern warning.

In the eyes of the Five Elders, it obviously seemed like an act of bravado.

Rather than saying it was meant for the Five Elders to see, it’s better to say that it was for the people within the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals to see.

To calm the citizens.

It seems that the message passed by Immortal Master Zi Chang might be true!

Inside the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, there really is a Unity-Path cultivator that is about to perform the act that is “Contrary to the Logic of Heaven and Earth”.

Even after multiple calculations and deductions, it also verified that this matter was real!

The Five Elder Organization started to panic.

No wonder the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals tolerated humiliation, compared to a new Immortal Sovereign.

Let alone a little bit of face, even if a few provinces were lost, it would be acceptable.

Once the promotion is successful, everything that was lost can be instantly regained.

It won’t do, this must be stopped!

Thus, the Five Elder Organization abruptly declared war.

At the same time, a team composed of nine Unity-Path Cultivators, according to the information provided by Zi Chang, headed to Tianyu Province, to execute the task of sabotaging the promotion.

They never expected that it was all a trap.

Li Fan’s expression turned strange as he read and reread the announcement where the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals was crowing about their victory several times.

Finally, he let out a long sigh.

“Without standing at that height, it’s hard to understand the whole picture.”

“Regarding what exactly happened, maybe only after things are settled, and looking back.”

“One might then gain some insight.”
