908 Plan
The Immortality Saint could not tell what Fang Xingjian was thinking. He said directly, "I wonder if Brother Fang Xingjian has heard the recent rumors about the Divine Sun Emperor's treasures?"
Fang Xingjian said, "I know about some. Could it be that the Immortality Saint knows the inside story?"
The Immortality Saint smiled. "It's a long story. Is Brother Fang aware that amongst the three Saints, the Phenomenal Saint upholds the law, the Oceansky Saint takes charge of missionary work, and that I'm in charge of the historical records and the understanding toward religious doctrines?"
Fang Xingjian nodded. The three Saints were in charge of different areas. Regardless of whether it was law, missionary work, or history and religious doctrines, all three areas were extremely important and had a lot of authority involved. This was also the reason why over so many years, the three Saints had been on equal grounds, with no victor decided from between them.
"1,000 years ago, seven devils came from the Western Land and caused great bloodshed. In the end, the strongest Tulip Dynasty contacted the three strongest experts of the time—Saint Adam, the Formidable Divine King Dante, and the Pope of that time. They joined forces and sealed up the seven devils in succession."
The Immortality Saint sighed and said, "In order to prevent the seals from being undone, the three great experts sealed up all information so that no one could locate the seven devils and undo their seals.
"However, just in case, the Pope from that time also left behind a last measure. Once there are signs that the seals are breaking, the Saint in charge of history will receive a warning."
As he spoke, his white robe shook slightly, and streams of golden words floated out from his long robes.
The white robe worn by the Immortality Saint was no ordinary item. It was a level 35 Divine Remains Equipment called the record all of the Church of Universal Truth's secrets and histories.
This long robe was given to the Saint who was in charge of documenting history and interpreting religious doctrines. It was said that the golden runes on the long robe recorded all of history from the time of the world's creation.
RIght now, the words revealed by the Immortality Saint formed the history about the seven devils.
When the seven seals showed signs of weakening, the Transmigration Robes presented the history from 1,000 years ago.
"These seven people called themselves the Plenary Foundation Septet—where 'Plenary' refers to being all-comprehensive, and 'Foundation' is referring to the foundation of the great Dao. According to the records, the seven of them came from the Western Land and are likely to be the Divine Sun Emperor's successors. Their objectives for coming to our land was to search for the Divine Sun Emperor's treasures."
Hearing this information, Fang Xingjian's gaze flickered. "The Divine Sun Emperor went to the Western Land? And to think that those seven people are still alive even after 1,000 years have passed?"
"To us, the Western Land is considered a superior realm," the Immortality Saint said. "The experts there possess a method to extend their lifespans. Therefore, when some Divine level experts feel that their lifespans are close to reaching an end, they head out in search of the Western Land.
"And it's because these seven people have the method that allows for conversion between lifespans and strength that they are able to keep on surviving in the seals."
"In search...?" Fang Xingjian said, "Is the Western Land very hard to find?"
The Immortality Saint smiled and looked at Fang Xingjian, saying, "You come from Earth and should know that although the way to return to your world is through the seas, your world doesn't belong to our seas.
"It's the same with the Western Land. If we keep on advancing toward the Western Sea, there will be an area of overlapping space and then we will be able to arrive in the Western Land. However, that area of space appears and disappears irregularly. It isn't easy to discover."
A hint of comprehension flashed in Fang Xingjian's eyes, and he finally understood what the Western Land was about.
To ordinary Westerners, it was true that they had crossed the seas by ships to arrive in Miracle World. However, it was like Demonic City, crossing from the seas of one world to the seas of another world. It was just that the seas in the two worlds had an area that had overlapped.
"However, these seven people think of themselves as having come from a superior realm and did not care about the life forms on this land. They brought about bloodshed and thus were jointly attacked and then sealed up," the Immortality Saint said. "However, as they possess the method to convert between lifespans and strength, they are able to keep on depleting their strength in the seals to sustain their lifespans.
"With 1,000 years having passed by, their strength has probably reached the lowest point."
Fang Xingjian asked directly, "What are you thinking of doing?"
"I want to make use of them to locate the Divine Sun Emperor's treasures," the Immortality Saint said. "Seven experts who are tier six of the Divine level or higher... When one of them is at their weakest point, it will be a rare opportunity.
"It's because once they are sealed up again, we won't have any chance to communicate with them at all."
Fang Xingjian's eyes narrowed as he asked, "You want to let them break out of the seal and follow after their traces to locate the Divine Sun Emperor's treasures?"
The Immortality Saint smiled and answered, "They are seven great experts after all. Although they have been weakened, they mustn't be underestimated.
"However, Brother Fang's method is a little too risky.
"My plan is to send people to separate six of the seals and stop them from being able to escape. We'll then go all out to attack one of them, taking them down one by one and forcing them to reveal the location of the Divine Sun Emperor's treasures."
"It's viable." Fang Xingjian nodded in agreement. "But it's as you have said. They are great experts who are tier six of the Divine level or higher. If we're able to reach tier six of the Divine level before we make a move, it'll be even safer."
"If we can reach tier six of the Divine level, it'll naturally be easier to deal with them. Thereafter, if we can find the Divine Sun Emperor's treasures, we'll be stronger than the Phenomenal Saint and the Oceansky Saint," the Immortality Saint said., "However, it's extremely difficult to reach tier six of the Divine level. If we aren't careful, we'll end up dying. Before I have absolute confidence, I won't attempt it."
Fang Xingjian fell silent for a few seconds before saying, "I have a method that can let us reach tier six of the Divine level faster."
Saying that, with a single thought, Fang Xingjian sent out the Double Moons Projection method to the Immortality Saint.
After all, before they got rid of the other two Saints, it was impossible for him and the Immortality Saint to become enemies. Moreover, there was only slightly over a year before the seventh onslaught and his lifespan was now left with one year and three months.
Fang Xingjian no longer had any time to waste. Therefore, he wished to make good use of time and strive for tier six of the Divine level together with the Immortality Saint.
With the contract's restriction, he would at least not have to worry that the other party would betray him.
After receiving the information concerning the Double Moons Projection, a gleam shone in the Immortality Saint's eyes. "To think that there's such a secret technique to clear the trials...? Excellent, excellent, excellent... With this secret technique, the two of us would have 100% certainty of reaching tier six of the Divine level.
"Without any delay, we should make arrangements to clear this trial as soon as possible. I'll need seven days to make arrangements for my matters in the Church."
Fang Xingjian gave it some thought before replying, "Then seven days later, we'll meet back here and strive for tier six of the Divine level together."
During these seven days, the Divine level experts under him could also strive to clear the Nine-Tiered Heavens in succession and then be able to take charge of the Empire.
