Chapter 391 Suspicion Abounds! A Counterattack on the Devouring Universe Realm?
Shocked, everyone was even more curious and wanted to know why Hongjun had summoned them here.
Compared to the surprise and curiosity of others.
Niu Ben, on the other hand, appeared much calmer and more composed.
Before coming to Zixiao Palace, he had already received the mission rewards from the system.
In this light, the purpose for which Dao Ancestor Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao summoned them becomes quite clear.
They must have already made up their minds to take the initiative to attack the Devouring Universe Realm.
Just as everyone hesitated, the Sage of Reception turned his gaze to Hongjun and the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, and asked:
"teacher."
"What is the purpose of summoning us to Zixiao Palace in such a hurry?"
As Jieyin asked his question, all the other powerful beings present looked towards Dao Ancestor Hongjun without prior arrangement.
Hongjun remained calm, surveyed the crowd, and then replied:
"As you all know, the Devouring Universe Realm in the outer chaos will soon invade our primordial world."
"I have conducted a deduction with the Heavenly Dao."
A decision has been made!
Upon hearing Hongjun's words, all the living beings present were completely bewildered.
Some didn't quite understand what Hongjun meant by those words.
You know, didn't a decision already be made during the previous meeting at Zixiao Palace? We must mobilize the power of the primordial world to resist the invasion of the Devouring Universe Realm's army.
Now that Hongjun says he has made a decision, everyone is a bit confused.
Hongjun paid no attention to the crowd's surprise and continued:
"Sitting and waiting for the enemy, one can rely on the power of the primordial world."
"However, war will inevitably break out on my ancient homeland."
"At that time, the land will be shattered, lives will be lost, and even the very source of life will be damaged."
"Moreover, if we just wait for the Devouring Universe Realm to finish gathering its strength and come all at once, the outcome will be unpredictable, and the cost will be too high."
"Therefore... passive defense is ultimately a poor strategy."
As Hongjun spoke, all the powerful beings present trembled in their hearts.
Just now, they were still confused and didn't quite understand what Hongjun meant.
But after Hongjun's explanation, the powerful figures present seemed to understand.
"Does the teacher mean... that we should take the initiative to attack the Devouring Universe Realm?"
The Supreme Sage asked aloud.
Upon hearing this, Hongjun nodded slightly and murmured:
"That's right!"
"I have made a decision with the will of Heaven to change course and shift from passive defense to proactive offense!"
"Before the main force of the Devouring Universe Realm is fully assembled and the passage is finally secured, let us gather our primordial elites and launch a counterattack against the Devouring Universe Realm!"
When Hongjun uttered these words, all the powerful beings present were shocked.
I never expected this.
The reason why Dao Ancestor Hongjun summoned them to Zixiao Palace was actually to launch a counterattack against the Devouring Universe Realm.
Amidst the shock, many powerful figures began to discuss the matter:
"this?"
"A counterattack against that Devouring Universe Realm?"
"Should we take the initiative?"
"Isn't that too risky?"
"We know absolutely nothing about the Devouring Universe Realm. If we attack their stronghold head-on and something goes wrong, how will we respond?"
"The vanguard sent by the Devouring Universe Realm consists of two Primordial Chaos Realm beings. In their home world, there must be many more Saint-level beings."
"..."
Many powerful beings exclaimed in surprise, expressing their opposition to what Dao Ancestor Hongjun had said.
In their view, the unknown dangers were too great.
If they take the initiative to attack the Devouring Universe, no one can control the changes.
In particular, they were completely unaware of the power composition of the Devouring Universe Realm, and by going there on their own initiative, they were very likely to walk right into a trap.
Of course, some people objected, while many influential figures agreed.
"The Dao Ancestor is right; we should take the initiative!"
"That's right, we caught the Devouring Universe completely off guard."
"It's better to take the initiative than to be passively attacked."
"..."
Niu Ben remained unmoved after hearing the discussions of many powerful figures.
Thinking about those who hold opposing views, they really don't understand the situation.
What Hongjun just said was his determination to defy the Heavenly Dao.
Since it was a decision, it was something that Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao had decided upon.
The reason for summoning them to Zixiao Palace this time is not to discuss this matter with them, but to inform them.
Just then, the Sage of Tongtian stepped forward, his eyes gleaming with intense light, his expression brimming with surging fighting spirit.
"good!"
"That's much more satisfying!"
"Instead of waiting for them to come knocking on our door and smash our belongings, let's go and destroy their stronghold!"
As soon as the Sage of Heaven finished speaking, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable nodded solemnly and said:
"If we can accomplish this in one battle and stop the war from spreading beyond the horizon, that would be the best option."
The Supreme Sage remained silent, but pondered in his heart:
"Since this matter is the result of the teacher's deduction and the workings of Heaven, the advantages and disadvantages must have already been weighed."
"Although there will still be risks, the returns may far outweigh those of holding on."
Nuwa frowned slightly. Although she felt that taking the initiative was very risky, since it was the decision of the Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Dao, she could not object to it.
The two saints, Jieyin and Zhunti, exchanged a glance.
After a slight pause, the guide began:
"This disciple believes in the deductions of Master and the Heavenly Dao, and will cooperate fully at that time!"
As the great sages spoke, those powerful beings who had just been refuting the call were momentarily stunned. They realized that taking the initiative was a decision made by the Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Dao, and they all fell silent, daring not to say anything more.
At this moment, Dao Ancestor Hongjun swept his gaze across the area and said in a deep voice:
"I have locked onto the coordinates of this other world with the Heavenly Dao. Its boundary is fragile, and the rudimentary form of the passage has already appeared."
"Currently, the Devouring Universe Realm is making every effort to build a stable passage, which is also our opportunity to cut in from the opposite direction."
At this point, Hongjun paused slightly, then added:
"The best time will be a thousand years from now."
"At that time, I will join forces with the Heavenly Dao to locate myself in the chaos and use supreme power to forcibly open and stabilize a reverse passage."
"Send elite vanguard troops to break into the Devouring Universe Realm!"
Upon hearing Hongjun's words, all the powerful beings present were startled.
For them, a thousand years is but a blink of an eye.
Just then, Dao Ancestor Hongjun said again:
"After you return, you shall immediately begin preparations."
"Select the most elite and valiant men under your command to form the vanguard of the counterattack."
"This battle is no ordinary one; it is a battle to annihilate entire realms!"
When he said this, Hongjun's face was full of solemnity.
Upon hearing this, everyone present, regardless of their own thoughts, solemnly obeyed.
The counter-offensive strategy has been decided; there is no turning back.
"Yes! I will obey the decree of the Dao Ancestor (Teacher)!"
Hongjun nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand casually, and said indifferently:
"Everyone, disperse!"
Then, the many powerful beings did not linger and all got up and left.
Although taking the initiative to attack the Devouring Universe Realm left them with a heavy feeling in their hearts.
But it also burned with a fierce fighting spirit.
In particular, the thought of the reward of the Saint's Crystal made them even more hopeful.
After all, if one can accumulate enough battle merits to obtain the Saint's Crystal, that is a heaven-defying item that can make one instantly prove the Dao and become a saint.
