"..."
Upon hearing this, the other powerful figures fell into a long silence.
Finally, Cui Louzhu asked with slight hesitation, "Could it be that the Alliance of All Races and Tianyu Pavilion are willing to share the opportunities and secrets of Lu Tao with us?"
Upon hearing this, the other powerful figures couldn't help but exchange glances, all seeing the greed in each other's eyes.
Minghu nodded and said, "That's right. Since it's a collaboration, these things should naturally be shared by everyone."
"If that's the case..."
Minghu and the others fell into a long period of deep thought.
In the recent desolate region, Lu Tao's name has become a household name, not because of his strength, but because his methods and talent are too extraordinary.
The main method they employed was to create the Immortal Sect, which would awe countless living beings.
All the disciples of the Immortal Sect broke through from the first level of the Heavenly God realm to the perfect Heavenly God realm within a short period of one year.
Such talent...
Considering the True Dragon Bloodline that Lu Tao recently auctioned, they all had a hunch that perhaps every disciple of the Immortal Sect was a prodigy with aptitude above the King rank.
It could even be an imperial grade.
As for Lu Tao's own talent...
Compared to the disciples of the Immortal Sect, it is even more exaggerated.
In just over a year, he not only broke through to the Divine Lord realm in cultivation, but also comprehended the Chaos Domain. Such talent is simply terrifying.
If they had the chance to obtain Lu Tao's opportunities and secrets, how glorious would their own future and that of their race be?
Since Lu Tao might be able to leave the desolate region, they certainly can too.
Having left the desolate region and with the opportunities that Lu Tao brought, their future seemed bright and promising.
Let alone the mere God Emperor realm, even the God Emperor or Saint realm is possible.
The temptation is simply too great.
They are willing to try things so big that they would even gamble with their entire race.
certainly.
More importantly, they have other concerns.
Just as Minghu said, if the Alliance of All Races and Tianyu Pavilion successfully kill Lu Tao, then for these races and forces that refuse to cooperate, facing these two behemoths...
Their fate will likely be more than just being killed.
They are very likely to be wiped out, and both the merchant guild and the religious sect will be directly eradicated.
Such consequences...
The consequences for Lu Tao after his victory were far more severe.
Therefore, they... dare not gamble!
An incredible stroke of luck, coupled with a terrifying ending...
final.
After some contemplation, Cang Yuan, Cui Louzhu, and Mo Xiong nodded solemnly and said, "Alright! Since the human race is unjust, then we will cooperate with Tianyu Pavilion and the Alliance of Races to deal with the human race and Lu Tao!"
"good!"
The Nether Tiger was overjoyed; it had actually made its choice in its heart long before informing these powerful individuals.
Seeing that everyone else had made the same choice, it was naturally pleased.
actually.
The Nether Tigers also knew that there was another reason why they made this choice.
That is, they are worried that the Tianyu Pavilion and the Alliance of Races will take action against them.
You need to know.
When Ao Chen contacted the Nether Tigers, he didn't ask them to swear any oaths. Instead, he told them directly, seemingly without any concern that they would reveal this matter to Lu Tao.
It is clear that even if they did not reveal their intentions to Lu Tao, these two forces would probably not let them go if they did not agree.
Rather than giving them a choice, they actually have very little room for choice.
The combined strength of the All-Clan Alliance and the Heavenly Pavilion is terrifying. Even if they hide behind Lu Tao, it's uncertain whether they can survive.
Given this, they naturally have no other choice.
Next.
Minghu didn't waste any time and directly told Ao Chen and Zhang Lan the result of their choice.
Then, with the three of them at the head, they discussed what to do next.
A moment later.
Minghu nodded to the other powerful figures and said, "Next, I will use the excuse that it is easier to advance to the half-step God Emperor level and transform essence, qi and spirit if I cannot leave the desolate region. Then you will also begin your tribulations."
"good!"
The ape, the demonic bear, and the others all nodded solemnly in agreement.
then.
They all dispersed, and the Nether Tiger took the opportunity to inform everyone that it was preparing to go out and undergo tribulation.
The Human Emperor, the Lord of Luo Sect, and others seemed unaware of their plans, and did not refuse.
This secretly pleased the Nether Tigers.
Of course, even if the Human Emperor and the others knew, they wouldn't care.
Three half-step God Emperors are not too many. They have eleven God Kings at the peak of their power. If they join forces, even if they are no match for the human race's experts, escaping will not be a problem.
The reason I'm still choosing to stay with Sect Leader Luo and the others is simply to mislead them.
Fortunately, when we take action against the human race in the future, we can capture Sect Master Luo, the Human Emperor, and Sect Master Nie immediately.
This will force Lu Tao to show himself!
——
"The Nether Tigers have agreed!"
On the other side, Ao Chen informed the other powerful figures of the choices made by Minghu and the others, which pleased all the God Kings.
In this way...
They were even more confident in killing Lu Tao.
The pangolin exhaled and said, "After the Nether Tiger and the others joined, almost all the top races and forces in the entire wasteland, except for the human race, have turned against Lu Tao."
"If even this lineup can't kill Lu Tao, then it's Lu Tao's fate to survive, and we can't be blamed."
"Success or failure hinges on this moment; the rest is up to fate."
"Lu Tao, how will you handle this?"
...
The powerful figures were all somewhat excited.
Once they all advance to the half-step God Emperor level, along with Minghu and the Tianyu Pavilion, there will be more than thirty half-step God Emperors. With such a lineup, killing a God Lord shouldn't be a problem.
Ao Chen glanced at Shi Shu, who was in seclusion cultivating in the small world, then looked at the other God Kings at the Perfection stage and said, "Let's undergo our tribulations as soon as possible. The sooner the better. When we all successfully undergo our tribulations, that will be the time when Lu Tao perishes!"
Although the human race currently only has three half-step God Emperors, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, the alliance of all races and the powerful figures such as Tianyu Pavilion and Minghu decided after discussion that they should wait until all of them have advanced to the half-step God Emperor level before taking action against Lu Tao.
after all.
It will only take about ten days.
Ten days is but a fleeting moment for them.
Even if Lu Tao had that much time, he couldn't do anything.
They didn't believe that Lu Tao could break through to become a God King in just about ten days. If that were the case, they would rather just wait to be cut off.
"good!"
All the gods nodded excitedly.
Then, Ao Chen looked at the Heavenly Frog and said, "Brother Frog, go and investigate how the other humans scattered in the desolate region are doing now."
Ao Chen wanted to first assess the situation of the human race in order to prepare for subsequent plans.
"good!"
The Heavenly Frog nodded. After three days of recuperation, it had recovered a lot, and exploring it now would not have any negative impact.
soon.
After investigating the results, Tianwa frowned and said, "Strange, the number of humans has been decreasing recently, and they all disappear inexplicably. However, we cannot find their whereabouts through causal investigation. I suspect... that Lu Tao is secretly collecting them, but he is worried that the commotion will be too great and does not want us to find out."
"Hmph, this guy really cares about the lives of humans!"
Ao Chen snorted coldly, his face icy cold. He hurriedly asked, "How much have you collected so far?"
Tianwa replied, "So far, we have only taken away the human race from nearly a hundred states. There are still more than six hundred states of human race that have not been taken away."
The Heavenly Frog seemed to know what Ao Chen was worried about, and added, "He started taking away the human race four days ago."
"He has taken away nearly a hundred human races from various states in four days. He certainly won't be able to take over the entire wasteland in ten days, so there's no need to worry."
Ao Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Lu Tao cannot gather all the humans in the entire wasteland within this period of time, they can use this opportunity to force Lu Tao to show himself.
Even if they couldn't force Lu Tao to appear, there was still the Tianyu Pavilion's formation.
With a two-pronged approach, he was convinced Lu Tao would give in.
——
"I wonder if the Nether Tigers are undergoing their tribulation at this time because they suddenly had a change of heart, or if they have other ideas."
On the other side.
When Sect Master Luo, the Human Emperor, and Sect Master Nie learned that Minghu planned to first undergo tribulation to become a half-step God Emperor before transforming his essence, energy, and spirit, they were immediately alarmed.
This choice, especially at this crucial moment, is honestly hard not to make them think.
Especially considering that Lu Tao had told them that the Nether Tiger and the Azure Ape would eventually betray them, it seems that they have already made their choice.
They had initially doubted the veracity of Lu Tao's claims, but the truth was that Lu Tao had not made a single mistake.
With this in mind, Sect Master Luo directly sent a message to Lu Tao, telling him about the matter and asking what to do next.
The result was only two words.
"It's alright!"
Sect Leader Luo relayed the reply he had received to the other two, and shook his head helplessly at their puzzled looks.
Sect Master Nie looked at the other two with great confusion and said, "I don't know what Sect Master Lu is thinking. He clearly told us to take action at this time, which would have allowed us to easily kill the Nether Tiger and the others. Now we can only watch them undergo their tribulations and become formidable enemies in the future. Sigh!"
Sect Leader Nie sighed deeply.
He couldn't understand Lu Tao's choice at all.
He wouldn't care if it were just advancing to the peak of God King, but that would be half a step God Emperor.
Even if they possessed the Dragon Transformation Artifact, they were not only facing the dozen or so half-step God Emperors like the Nether Tiger, but also the Alliance of Races.
The difference between ten half-step God Emperors and twenty is still enormous.
If they could kill the Nether Tiger and its companions beforehand, even if the Alliance of Races had ten half-step God Emperors, they wouldn't pose much of a threat to the three of them.
But Lu Tao, unfortunately, did not allow them to do so.
More importantly, Lu Tao offered no other explanation for this.
Sect Master Luo chuckled and comforted him, "Sect Master Nie, don't worry. Lu Tao is always prudent in his actions. He must have his reasons for making this choice. We just need to follow his arrangements."
"Well, that's all we can do."
Sect Leader Nie gave a bitter smile and didn't say anything more.
He didn't actually have any issues with Lu Tao; he trusted Lu Tao and was quite convinced of his abilities.
The key is...
Lu Tao seemed to be acting arbitrarily in these matters, not only without consulting them for any opinions, but also without offering any explanation.
If Lu Tao offered any explanation, no matter how flimsy the reason, he would believe it.
But it just doesn't exist!
This left him quite helpless. Such a personality was indeed not suitable for being the emperor of the human race. If he weren't so familiar with Lu Tao, he would have had to give Lu Tao a few words of advice.
Now all we can do is wait and see how Lu Tao acts.
——
"Yes, just as I expected. As expected, the Nether Tigers betrayed us at this time."
Within the Lesser Thousand Worlds, Lu Tao was not surprised to receive the message.
He had learned of this matter long before through the statue of the deity.
"Promote them all, preferably promote several half-step God Emperors. Those are half-step God Emperors! Just one can be used to refine experience pills, which can be used to create more God Kings, and even... I can use it when I promote to God Emperor in the future."
The reason Lu Tao didn't stop Minghu, Cangyuan, Cui Louzhu, and others from advancing to the half-step God Emperor realm was simply for the experience pills.
The difference between refining an experience pill with the power of a fully-fledged God-King and refining it with the power of a half-step God-Emperor is immense.
Although a half-step God Emperor is not a God Emperor level expert, he is still associated with the title of 'God Emperor'.
Lu Tao needs to prepare for his future breakthrough to the Divine Empress realm.
Although the experience pills for a half-step Divine Emperor are certainly far inferior to those for a Divine Emperor, they have the advantage of being more numerous.
If we can wipe out all these half-step God Emperors in one fell swoop, when he breaks through to God Emperor, these pills should be enough to raise his cultivation to the peak of God Emperor.
otherwise.
Then we'll have to figure out a way to hunt down the God Emperor, wouldn't that be troublesome?
As it concerned the experience pill, he certainly couldn't tell Sect Master Luo, the Human Emperor, and Sect Master Nie his thoughts.
Therefore, I have no choice but to keep it from them.
Putting that matter aside, Lu Tao turned his gaze to the Lesser Thousand Worlds.
Boom!
At this moment, endless lightning flashed within the Lesser Thousand Worlds, and many elders of the Immortal Sect, as well as cultivators from the Qianyu Continent, were undergoing tribulations.
In the past three days, the disciples of the Immortal Sect have been cultivating for three months.
With the help of the Domain Flower, these Immortal Sect elders have all perfected their respective domains and are able to transcend tribulations and advance to the God Lord level.
also.
The beings of the Ganyu Continent received a cultivation boost of several dozen times, and after Lu Tao buried many high-grade divine veins on the Ganyu Continent planet, their cultivation speed increased by nearly a hundred times compared to before.
With such a huge increase, many powerful figures from the Divine Platform have broken through to become Martial Kings.
Some Martial Kings have also broken through to become Martial Gods.
These beings undergo tribulations, naturally in the lesser worlds.
Lu Tao specially opened a tribulation passage between their small world and the minor world, so that after they sensed the lightning tribulation, they could be directly teleported to the minor world to undergo the tribulation.
After passing through the tribulation, they were teleported back.
In this way, their foundation will not be affected.
Boom!
Under the endless thunder, many elders of the Immortal Sect successfully transcended their tribulations.
Elders He Zongming, Wu Tianyou, Chen An, Kong Hao, Ji Rui, and others all transcended the tribulation and became powerful Divine Lords.
Lu Tao gathered them together, gave them experience pills, and said, "Quickly improve your cultivation; I'll leave some tasks to you later."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Elders Su Peng, Kong Xin, Ji Hao, Feng Lin, and others happily accepted the experience pills and began to improve their cultivation.
As the Immortal Sect grows stronger, the number of elders, protectors, and deacons also expands.
By now, excluding disciples, the number of members in other positions has reached several hundred.
Even among his mounts, Lu Tao created additional positions such as elders and protectors for them.
People like Gong Yuan, Gong Aoqing, and Gong Manxiang are also elders.
That's how it is.
Under the terrifying power of the Experience Pill, hundreds of Immortal Sect elders all reached the peak of the Divine Lord realm in a short period of time.
Such rapid improvement, even if they were mentally prepared, still left them in awe when it actually happened.
Seeing that everyone had successfully improved their cultivation, Lu Tao handed over the cave dwellings he had prepared to them, saying, "Refine these cave dwellings, and then wait for my instructions."
"Yes, Sect Master!"
The crowd naturally obeyed the orders without suspicion and began to refine the cave dwelling.
This cave dwelling was infused with a trace of world power by Lu Tao, which can shield it from the detection of cause and effect, just like the illusion and concealment talismans on their bodies. It does not need to be refined separately; it only needs to be infused with world power.
There was nothing else in the cave except a golden statue of a deity.
"Alright, let's continue our cultivation."
After giving the instructions, Lu Tao abandoned the elders and began to make prayers one after another.
That's how it is.
In the small world, after making his wish, Lu Tao began to arrange his plans to ensure that there would be no mistakes.
Meanwhile, the three human race's half-step God Emperors were conducting a normal auction of the True Dragon Bloodline with some concern.
The other party.
The Alliance of All Races, the Heavenly Pavilion, and the Divine Kings such as the Nether Tiger and the Azure Ape, all secretly underwent tribulations to become half-step Divine Emperors.
Everything is proceeding according to plan.
Time flows like a torrent, not only taking away the hustle and bustle of the wasteland, but also bringing endless killing intent beneath the surging undercurrents!
In the blink of an eye, ten days have passed in the outside world.
