Nuclear-powered Sword Immortal-Chapter 672 - 636 Increment_2

"Thank you."

Gu Jinlai said.

He glanced at the Star Gate as if something occurred to him and asked, "Theoretically, only a Heavenly Monarch can construct a Star Gate, but what about mortals? Can they build one?"

Ju Mang was taken aback and quickly called an old man over.

After learning of Gu Jinlai’s question, the old man said with a smile, "Naturally, mortals cannot construct a Star Gate themselves, but they can provide coordinates for the gate. As long as stable coordinates are provided, we can complete the construction of the Star Gate on our end, achieving the same effect. There are actually several methods to provide these coordinates, but the one completely achievable by mortals would be the Star Spirit Platform."

"Star Spirit Platform?"

"Yes, but the Star Spirit Platform requires a massive amount of manpower and resources. If cultivators assist, it’s not really a big deal, but if it’s left entirely to mortals to build, it might take decades or even centuries to complete."

As the old man spoke, he quickly called over a Heavenly Monarch, who then took out a small booklet from him, "This is the detailed book on the Star Spirit Platform. Please, Ancient True Immortal, take a look."

"Thank you."

Gu Jinlai nodded his head.

After obtaining the detailed booklet on the Star Spirit Platform and waiting for Xie Yusheng to make another reconnaissance, he would be able to understand what was actually going on with the Star Shining Federation’s spatial passageway.

...

Returning to the Immortal Country, Gu Jinlai continued to purge other Grotto Heavens within the Immortal Country.

Half a month later, news arrived once again from Zhao Xi.

The Grotto Heaven in Red Flame Canyon managed by Ten Thousand Stars Sword Sect was about to be completed.

Moreover...

This Grotto Heaven was to bear the Geng Metal Heavenly Dao of Daoist Xuan Jian.

This Heavenly Dao was also the most adept in slaughter.

...

"Daoist Xuan Jian is sealing the gates, it seems this is to prepare a retreat route in case of defeat in the battlefield of the Immortal Country," Gu Jinlai said.

A Heavenly Immortal possessing a Grotto Heaven and one without one are entirely different concepts.

Even an Immortal Master would not dare to attack a Daoist’s Grotto with the power of a Heavenly Dao.

After all, the fundamental difference between an Immortal Master and a Daoist is merely a more complete understanding of the Heavenly Dao and stronger Divine Sense Ability; their core powers do not differ significantly.

If one side has a continuous supply of Cave Heaven Power and the other is like a rootless duckweed, naturally, the former will emerge victorious in the end.

"Planning for defeat before considering victory, just from this point, we can see how seriously Ten Thousand Stars Sword Sect is taking us, and the more they focus on this next battle, the tougher the situation we will face," Zhao Xi said.

"Since Immortal Qiu Yu has already defected, they naturally know that we hold another Star Gate leading to the Profound Immortal Realm. Fortunately, there’s an abundance of mazes on the other side of the Star Gate, and those formations perfectly integrate with heaven and earth. Ten Thousand Stars Sword Sect will likely find it hard to locate for a while, knowing that the Star Gate opens for a period of one and a half years. In other words, they are waiting for me to appear at Creation Gate, and after this opening period expires without my appearance at Creation Gate, they only have two options left," Gu Jinlai said urgently: "One is to wait another year and a half, gambling that I missed this window period due to some reason. The other route..."

"To launch a direct attack."

Zhao Xi took over Gu Jinlai’s words, "I believe they will launch a direct attack because if they wait another year, my Transforming Spirit Heavenly Dao will definitely achieve Small Achievement."

"This soon?"

Gu Jinlai was somewhat surprised.

"The Longevity World isn’t like the Profound Immortal Realm; nurturing a Heavenly Dao is like birthing a child, taking hundreds, thousands, or even thousands of years. With the Spiritual Mechanism Power our Immortal Country holds, we would only need ten years to make a Heavenly Dao achieve Great Success, and at most twenty years to reach Heavenly Dao Perfection," Zhao Xi said.

Listening to this, Gu Jinlai sighed at the wealth of the Longevity World, and he understood why Ten Thousand Stars Sword Sect was so envious of it.

Heavenly Dao Perfection often meant the birth of an Immortal Master!

And the resources of the Longevity World were so abundant that it could nurture an Immortal Master for Ten Thousand Stars Sword Sect in twenty years...

No wonder they were desperate.

"You ultimately have the geographical advantage. If your Transforming Spirit Heavenly Dao achieves Small Achievement, even without my interference, Master Xuanling would still face certain risks if he tries to devour your Transforming Spirit Heavenly Dao from your Grotto Heaven. So..."

"In a few days to a month at most, Ten Thousand Stars Sword Sect will inevitably attack," Zhao Xi stated emphatically.

Gu Jinlai nodded, agreeing with Zhao Xi’s conjecture.

"As for Blood Moat Demon Abyss..."

"Since all four Immortal Masters have already moved the Immortal Country to Blood Moat Demon Abyss, we have gained a significant advantage. To put it bluntly, the Devils of Blood Moat Demon Abyss can no longer pose a threat. However, correspondingly, since all four Immortal Masters have rushed to the battlefield, the forces we can rely on here are left with only West Heavenly Spirit Jade Immortal Master and you," Zhao Xi said, looking at Gu Jinlai.

Zhao Xi needs to confront Master Xuanling.

On the side of the Immortal Country, the only truly usable one is Immortal Master Lingyu alone.

Even though she has moved her Grotto Heaven to the position of the Two Realms Passage and backed by the Immortal Country, at most she could possess the combat power of a Top Heavenly Immortal, which is incapable of withstanding an assault from dozens of True Immortals from Ten Thousand Stars Sword Sect, including the corporeal incarnations of Heavenly Immortals.

She could only possibly stall the numerous True Immortals of Ten Thousand Stars Sword Sect for a brief moment, and Zhao Xi must quickly free himself to assist her.

And before Zhao Xi could intervene...

It would be Gu Jinlai who could help him turn the tables, reversing the devouring by Master Xuanling’s Transforming Spirit Heavenly Dao.

In a sense, he had almost gambled the entire future of the Immortal Country on Gu Jinlai.

"Worried?"

Gu Jinlai laughed.

"Haha, at this moment, whether I am worried or not no longer matters. All I can do is to give it my all, no matter the outcome..."
