"Uniting the Blue Pole Star." Everyone heard Yu Long's words and couldn't help but sigh. Yes, all the forces in the Blue Pole Star are too scattered and wouldn't withstand a full-blown invasion.
Once the three continents united, the natural and human resources they could gather and share would explode exponentially. Above all else, it would be easier to communicate with each other when Yu Long united them all.
It's a common trend at this point.
Huan Caiyi heard this and fell into a deep thought, but ultimately realized Yu Long's intention wasn't for merely to conquer them all. He doesn't want them to lose miserably.
Conflict?
No, why bother having conflict with each other when you have invaders to fight? Only fools would have internal conflict in such a situation.
"What is your plan after that, My Lord?" asked Yujin.
Yujin believed there was nothing wrong with Yu Long's decision. He was a supreme being with noble powers, and Blue Pole Star, as Yu Long's home planet, was fortunate to remain under his protection.
She has witnessed many god-level beings in the Primordial Era of Gods, and most abandoned their home planet to settle on a more prosperous place.
It was rare enough for people like Yu Long to exist. Some people aren't so kind.
Chu Yueli rubbed her chin, "If we follow Master's plan, our next plan should be to visit the Divine Realm and build our base there."
"Unfortunately, the channel to the Divine Realm is closed. Even if we used the Primordial Profound Ark, the distance of the closest middle-level stars was too far away."
Yu Long shook his head gently, "Blue Pole Star being far away from other star realms was protection from the Evil God himself."
"This planet has too many secrets and couldn't afford visitors from the Divine Realm."
"In fact, it's to our advantage."
"But Yueli is right. My next plan is to visit the upper realm and set up a Shadow Realm branch there. We are lacking in information gathering there."
"But didn't Yueli say the channel to the Divine Realm was closed?" Huan Caiyi tilted her head in confusion.
Yu Long smiled mysteriously, "No, not really."
"Blue Pole Star has a few visitors from the Divine Realm, and they left their legacies here in one way or another."
"The Frozen Cloud Asgard has the legacy of Ice Phoenix, though an inferior version. Even then, the person who left the legacy also left a teleportation array to the upper realm."
Yujin raised her eyebrow, "Ice Phoenix? That's weird."
"Does someone have the inheritance of that cold turkey? I thought she died in the war..."
"Wait, do you also have a beef (problem) with Ice Phoenix?" Yu Long was speechless.
Yujin snorted, "It's not so much of a problem. That cold turkey and I are just incompatible with each other."
"After all, I reigned over the Law of Fire, and she reigned over the Law of Ice."
In fact, Yujin's dislike of Ice Phoenix is purely instinctual. It started with their first meeting, and the rest is history.
But Fire Phoenix? The history between them is always like water and oil.
Yu Long nodded in realization and added, "Anyway, we can visit the upper realm anytime, but having a guide would be easier."
"Unfortunately, neither of them is with us right now."
"One is in deep sleep, and the other has yet to appear."
"We can only wait until one of them is here." Yu Long mentioned Jasmine and the Ancestor of Frozen Cloud Asgard, Mu Bingyun.
Huan Caiyi, Yujin, and Chu Yueli thought about Yu Long's words and decided not to overthink this matter.
Yona, who had been quiet, suddenly opened her mouth, "Master, are we going to fight Pandora?"
"No, our current enemy is not Pandora, though she might play some games with us from the shadows." Yu Long denied it because their last confrontation would make Pandora stop and recuperate first.
"I'm quite sure we would fight people from Olympus."
"I killed Ares, and Yuechan killed Poseidon."
"Both are 'important' figures in the Olympus, so they would send one or two people to investigate soon. Just a heads up, those two are the weakest fighters in the Olympus."
"The real one is coming at us with a heavy hitter soon."
Although Yu Long said so, there was no look of panic or fear on his face. Is Olympus strong? For sure, they are. However, Yu Long had destroyed them once, and he could do it again.
But if Yu Long dealt with Olympus himself, the result wouldn't be good for either side. Isn't that no different than the past? Repeating the same mistake again and again.
So, this time, Yu Long let others fight the Olympus, tempering themselves in the life-and-death fights. He wanted to use Olympus as a sharpening tool for his people.
Chu Yuechan has proven the effectiveness of this method because she killed Poseidon by herself. She's no longer a cold woman who only knew how to cultivate.
She's already a full-blown powerhouse on her own.
The others will catch up soon.
Chu Yueli obviously noticed this when Yu Long mentioned Chu Yuechan's name and couldn't help but smirk because her sister's strength increased once she fell in love with Yu Long.
Even Chu Yuechan's goal was nothing but to become the finest sword for Yu Long. Honestly, Chu Yuechan was lucky that she fought Poseidon in a plain and not the ocean.
"I understand, Master." Chu Yueli said with a faint smile.
Huan Caiyi glanced at Chu Yueli and asked, "You don't seem worried about the invasion?"
Chu Yueli chuckled, "Well... Because the Profound Sky Continent has gotten invaded earlier than the Illusory Demon Realm."
"At the time, everything was very chaotic."
"You will get the hang of it once you face the invasion." She added casually.
"Is that so?" Huan Caiyi still doubted it.
Although the invasions of Olympus and Pandora are different, they are the same in one way or another. They only have to adapt appropriately based on the situation.
Yona, who had received Yu Long's answer, sighed in relief. She was not ready to face that monster Pandora. After all, the latter has caused too much misery for her.
'I will train three times harder and become stronger quickly.' Yona vowed in her heart.
Yu Long clapped his hand, shocking everyone. "Okay, the invasion won't happen anytime soon. However, we must prepare everything."
"Yueli, contact Fu Zhong. Tell him to pack Heavenly Wind Flower's pollens and Golden Sunflower's seeds in advance. As well as the method of array making for the barrier."
"Zilong will mark the area near the Lost Heaven Sect and Thousand Weapons Association."
"As for the receiver, my Father and Ye Zhi would do it."
"Mm. Consider it done." Chu Yueli replied calmly. She used her power to condense ice into a bird and sent it away to the Heavenly Demon Cult.
Huan Caiyi glanced at the ice bird and commented, "Then, consider the barriers in the Illusory Demon Realm done, too. My people grew the Golden Sunflowers all over the important cities and set the Heavenly Wind Flower to make the arrays."
"Everything should be planted in a week or two."
"Good." Yu Long nodded in satisfaction. "Then, we can start the second phase."
"Second phase?" Everyone was curious, including Yona.
Yu Long smiled, "Cultivating the people."
