883: Chapter 282 The Secret of The Water of Life (Part 2) 883: Chapter 282 The Secret of The Water of Life (Part 2) Ye Yinzhu shook his head and said, “It was not me who said this, but the Divine Dragon King.
He told me that despite the devastating losses suffered by our Eastern Dragon Empire in the war ten thousand years ago and the immeasurable sacrifices made by my divine dragon ancestors, the blow to the Demon Mother Clan was also exceedingly severe.
For ten thousand years, our Eastern Dragon Empire was annihilated, losing any hope of regaining national strength, but the Demon Mother Clan could no longer return to their former glory.
In other words, the Abyssal Plane is not invincible.
To safeguard our world, it is necessary to wage a war—a sacred war that concerns the survival of both our races.”
Upon hearing Ye Yinzhu’s words, O’Brien’s fluctuating emotions gradually stabilized, and he asked gravely, “Yinzhu, is this truly the directive of the Divine Dragon King?
It has been ten thousand years since we have received any message from the Divine Dragon King, and today you suddenly tell us all this.
I’m sorry, but I find it very hard to believe.
Or perhaps, I do not wish to believe that the seal is unable to hold.”
He did not articulate it, but his meaning was clear, since you have bee the spokesperson of the Divine Dragon King, you must prove this to us.
After all, Ye Yinzhu came from the Eastern Dragon, an adversary of Faran.
Ye Yinzhu smiled calmly and said, “Since I have bee the spokesperson of the Divine Dragon King, naturally I should demonstrate this to my fellow tower masters.”
Slowly raising his head and opening his arms, facing the remains of the Divine Dragon King at the top of the cave, Ye Yinzhu called out in his mind.
In an instant, the golden light surged mightily, ten times more intense than when Ye Yinzhu had municated with the Divine Dragon King.
The sheer force of that moment’s pressure caused all six of the Faran tower masters to lose their ability to move.
One must realize, these six tower masters were all of Sub-God rank power, and O’Brien had even reached the fearsome Eighth Rank of the Sub-God rank.
Such immense pressure was something they had never experienced in their lives, and in that brief instant, their doubts were dispelled.
Besides the God-rank Divine Dragon King, who else could exert such an overwhelming force?
Strength, often more precise than any words, had far more effect.
But it wasn’t over yet.
In midair, the massive body of the Divine Dragon King seemed to e alive suddenly, its red eyes bursting with intense light.
Immediately following, a resplendent golden silhouette descended from the heavens, its shape identical to the remains of the Divine Dragon King, only shrunken a hundredfold.
Although it was made of light, it appeared lifelike, with every scale clearly visible.
The light arrived, and all things converged in an instant.
Despite being reduced a hundred times in size, the body of the Divine Dragon King was still enormous as it hovered and circled around Ye Yinzhu and the black gemstone beneath him, casting him in a golden hue.
An ancient and authoritative voice echoed throughout the cavern, “From this moment on, Ye Yinzhu, descendant of dragons, inheritor of the Clan of Divine Dragons’ bloodline, shall bee my spokesperson.
Any doubts cast upon him will only hasten the disaster.
The time of the Seal’s destruction will be shortened by one year due to what you have witnessed.”
A flash of gold, and the Golden Dragon soared into the sky, merging back into the enormous remains, as the pressure dissipated with it.
Hearing that the time until the Seal’s destruction was to be moved up by another year, the faces of O’Brien and the other five tower masters turned rigid.
Although it was O’Brien who had spoken, he also represented the six of them, and they could never have imagined that their momentary doubt would lead to such a result.
Ye Yinzhu was somewhat surprised, even finding it somewhat amusing.
The Divine Dragon King had not only cooperated with him but had also given these tower masters a harsh lesson.
However, this meant that his subsequent dealings with them would naturally bee much easier.
“I am sorry, Yinzhu, I shouldn’t have doubted you.
But you know, we have guarded this place for so long, never having seen the Divine Dragon King, nor knowing if the Divine Dragon King really still exists, so…”
Ye Yinzhu shook his head and said, “Senior brother, there is no need to say more.
I understand your predicament.
Right now, the most important thing for us is to find out how to avert this catastrophe.”
O’Brien nodded earnestly and said sincerely, “Please tell us, what are the instructions of the Divine Dragon King?”
Ye Yinzhu said, “The Divine Dragon King has told me that although he cannot be certain to what extent the power of the Demon Mother Clan has recovered, it is certain that they could not pare to their invasion of the Ryuzakinus Continent back then.
Despite the death of the Divine Dragon King’s physical body, his God-rank spirit continues to exist.
For ten thousand years, he has been watching over our Continent, and at the same time, he has exhausted his efforts to support the Seal using the power sacrificed by the divine dragons of that era.
However, ten thousand years have left him barely able to bear the burden.”
“I know what you are all worried about,” Ye Yinzhu began.
“Although the Divine Dragon King is still angry about the destruction of our Eastern Dragon Empire by the West Dragon Empire, he has also told me that, regardless, the Western Dragon People are still humans.
We all belong to the same plane of existence.
In the end, it’s an internal matter for us humans.
To stand against a foreign enemy, he can put aside his grievances from the past.
The Divine Dragon King has given a prehensive assessment of the strength that our entire Continent now possesses.
pared to our old Eastern Dragon Empire, we have about fifty percent of its strength.
The main reason it is only fifty percent is that we do not have a God-rank warrior.
Although we are not entirely clear about the current situation of the Demon Mother Clan, the Divine Dragon King has said that it is also unlikely that they possess a warrior as strong as the Queen Demon Mother anymore.
Therefore, it is very possible for us to achieve the final victory in this Holy War.”
Upon hearing Ye Yinzhu’s explanation, the faces of the six Tower Masters improved significantly, and they nodded while deep in thought.
O’Brien asked, “Is it the Divine Dragon King’s instruction for us to integrate the strengths of every race on the Continent and assemble a grand army to oppose the Demon Mother?”
Ye Yinzhu nodded and answered, “We have no other choice now.
The Divine Dragon King will help us as much as possible.
Have any of you heard of The Water of Life?”
“The Water of Life?” O’Brien’s expression stirred; he had, of course, heard of this miraculous spring water.
A faint smile crossed Ye Yinzhu’s face as he elaborated on what the Divine Dragon King had explained about The Water of Life.
Listening to him, a hint of joy appeared on O’Brien’s face.
“Does that mean, not only can The Water of Life help you recover your senses, but it can also help the Elf Tribe reach and even surpass the strength of their prime?”
Ye Yinzhu nodded, saying, “Sister Anya has told me that the Elf Tribe has several powerful military units that will only emerge when the Life Ancient Tree bees the Eternal Tree.
Moreover, the Eternal Tree would greatly enhance the strength of the existing Elven Warriors.
With this, our chance of victory will be much greater.
Coupled with the power accumulated by Qin City in magic technology, we are entirely capable of initiating this Holy War, and the likelihood of victory will substantially increase.”
O’Brien sighed, adding, “It looks like this war is inevitable.
However, the Continent will likely suffer greatly.
Even if we emerge victorious in the end, I’m afraid it will be a pyrrhic victory.”
Ye Yinzhu gave a slight smile and said, “There’s a way we can minimize our losses.
It was proposed by the Divine Dragon King, and I think it is very feasible.”
“Oh?
What is it?” inquired O’Brien, curious.
Ye Yinzhu spoke gravely, “Why must we wait for the Abyssal Plane to attack?
Since the hatred and conflicts between us are irreconcilable.
Why must the battlefield be on the Ryuzakinus Continent?
Can’t we shift the battlefield to the Abyssal Plane?
If we do that, at least our civilians will not suffer, and we will still have our own support from the rear.
We can advance to attack and retreat to defend.
One of the Demon Mother’s strongest abilities is the Plague.
To minimize losses, our first issue to resolve is to prevent the Plague from spreading on the Ryuzakinus Continent.
If the battle takes place on the Abyssal Plane, that problem naturally ceases to exist.”
“A counterattack?” O’Brien suddenly stood up from his gemstone seat.
All along, what Faran had been thinking and doing was how to maintain the Seal and keep the Demon Mother at bay.
Yet, the words of Ye Yinzhu exploded in his mind like a bomb.
Indeed!
Why must we humans always be the ones getting hit passively, waiting for their invasion?
Can’t we be the invaders?
MacMillan said, “But we don’t understand the situation in the Abyssal Plane.
Fighting on enemy territory puts time, location, and unity against us, and the chances of victory would greatly decrease.
If our forces are defeated, won’t the oute be the same?”
“No, the oute would be drastically different.
Because, even if we fail, we could still retreat to the Seal.
Why must we wait for the Seal to be broken before we act?
We could move a bit earlier, so even if we fail, the Seal can still temporarily hold back the enemy.
Furthermore, by having the battle in the Abyssal Plane, our Ryuzakinus Continent can continuously produce various resources, providing more soldiers to replenish the battlefield.
Without any interference, how strong could the production capacity of the entire Continent bee?
You must have seen the Portal in Qin City.
Within a few years, I am fully confident that I can provide such Portals to all the countries of the Continent, allowing their soldiers and resources to arrive in Faran at the earliest convenience, and then through the Seal, into battle.”
