Chapter 996 Great Sage

"Presumably, Senior should know their topmost leader. Am I correct?" Yun Lintian asked. After fighting with the Poison Valley for so long, he had to admit that he still had no clue about their true leader.

Long Jinwei's eyes narrowed slightly as he uttered. "His name is Yin Weizhe. His subordinates called him Great Sage. Above him, there is another master called the Abyssal Overlord. However, this person had never appeared from the beginning to the present. I believe he's currently living in the Abyssal World."

"This Yin Weizhe's strength is unparalleled. Back then, it took ten pinnacle experts to deal with him." His voice became heavy. "My father, the founder of the Long Clan, died under his hand in order to create an opportunity for everyone to finish him."

"Unfortunately, he managed to escape with a sliver of life."

Hearing this, Long Guang closed his eyes and went silent. He hadn't been born yet when the invasion occurred, but he knew how great his grandfather was. If he didn't fall at that time, perhaps there would be ten palaces in this world.

"Yin Weizhe…" Yun Lintian muttered to himself. It was the first time he had heard this name.

"Do you know his whereabouts, Senior?" He asked.

"Back then, he escaped to the Chaotic Sea Region southwest of the Endless Sea. The space in that place is unstable. Countless people entered the place and have never come back." Long Jinwei explained. "However, judging from the Poison Valley's recent movement, my intuition told me Yin Weizhe is still alive and should have a way to command his subordinates."

He looked at Yun Lintian and said. "You're right. The true enemy is Yin Weizhe and the Poison Valley. Compared to them, the struggles between these palaces are nothing."

He sighed and continued. "I'm afraid this time, humanity might fall. There's no unity among us. It's entirely different from the past."

Yun Lintian nodded in agreement. He didn't believe Xing Tengfei and Weilan Jian would unite with other factions and fight with the Poison Valley to the end. What they were waiting for should be a chance to leave this world.

"I heard you have dealt with the Northern Endless Sea Lord?" Long Guang opened his eyes and asked.

Yun Lintian replied truthfully. "He was killed by an expert. Not me."

"An expert?" Long Guang was puzzled.

"Forgive me, Patriarch Long. I cannot reveal this senior's identity." Yun Lintian replied with an apologetic smile.

"I understand." Long Guang didn't press further. "This is strange. There's no reaction from the Poison Valley after he died."

"Patriarch Long might not know this. Their true target has never been the Northern Continent in the first place. They are currently attacking the Western Continent." Yun Lintian explained.

Long Guang's expression changed slightly. "Really? Why can't I find any news?"

"I'm afraid they have already occupied the Western Continent." Yun Lintian replied.

According to Yun Meilan's report, half of the continent had already been occupied by the Poison Valley when she reached there.

Although she managed to rescue the Golden Python Clan, the Heavenly Fox Clan, and the Deep Sea Naga Clan, in the end, the losses of these clans were not low. It was said there were a few hundred left, and most of them were either elderly or young. Their core members had sacrificed themselves during the war.

The good news was Jin Yang, Jin Mingzhe, Bi Xian, Bi You, Yu Rongxi, and Yu Jiao'er were still alive, and Yun Meilan had already sent them back to the Misty Cloud Sect safely.

"If that's the case, the situation is more severe than I thought." Long Guang's face became solemn.

The Western Region was known as Houses of Thousand Beasts. With Poison Valley's means, this was akin to adding free soldiers to their troops. When the battle broke out in the future, humanity would face hundreds of thousands of beast armies. Just thinking it made Long Guang's heart turn cold.

"Therefore, please prepare for the worst scenario." Yun Lintian said in a deep voice.

He turned to Long Jinwei and asked. "Senior, do you know where the tunnel leads to the Abyssal World?"

"It's under this continent." Long Jinwei replied. "Why? Are you afraid someone is trying to do something to it?"

Yun Lintian expressed his thoughts. "As far as I know, the only way to break the world's boundary currently is unsealing the tunnel. No matter what conspiracy the Poison Valley comes up with, their ultimate goal is definitely the tunnel."

"Furthermore, the existences like Xing Tengfei, Weilan Jian, as well as other hidden experts, are definitely unwilling to stay in this lower world forever. Once their lifespans reach their limits, they will do everything to get out of this world."

He paused for a moment and said solemnly. "In my opinion, there's a high chance they might help the Poison Valley break the seal of the tunnel."

Long Jinwei was surprised. He didn't expect a young man like Yun Lintian to know a lot of things.

Long Guang seemed to see through his father's thoughts. He quickly explained through a sound transmission. "Father, this Young Master Yun has managed to pull the Heavenly Sword out recently, and there are many mysterious things about him. You can't look at his age."

Long Jinwei nodded inwardly. Previously, his death was imminent, and he didn't have the energy to investigate many things around the world. All he did was make arrangements for his clan and his precious granddaughter. Hence, it was normal for him to not know Yun Lintian's background.

The atmosphere in the room became heavy. Long Jinwei and Long Guang didn't doubt Yun Lintian's analysis. After all, their understanding of the world's situation was more profound than his. They could clearly see what was coming.

At that time, this world would fall into chaos, and the era where human reign was likely to come to an end.

Seeing this, Yun Lintian took a deep breath and said. "We are currently in a passive state. If we want to win this war, we must take the initiative."

Long Jinwei's golden pupils shone with a brilliant light. "Little Friend Yun is right. The longer we wait, the disadvantageous we become."

He turned to his son and said solemnly. "Call the Dragon Council. Tell them I have an important announcement."

Long Guang's pupils shrank slightly as he replied. "Yes, father."
