    Chapter 375: Two Major Threats

    Is the League Master really dead?

    Li Yuan was shocked, even though he heard Fang Hai say it personally, he still couldn’t believe it.

    The man who led civilization to rise, who was invincible for over a hundred years, and even Gu You and Qiu Bing Zun found mysterious, had he really fallen so quietly?

    Even though he was close to the peak of the demigod realm, Li Yuan still felt that he was far inferior to Dongfang Ji and needed to continue working hard.

    Although the path of cultivation is unpredictable, Qiu Bing Zun’s “Inheritance Crystal” from the Divine Realm often described how some super beings disappeared silently after falling into terrible dangerous places.

    But Li Yuan still didn’t believe it.

    “Fang Hai.” Bai Shan Demigod looked anxious, “How could Dongfang be in the Burial of Immortals Ancient Region?”

    Bai Shan Demigod was indeed anxious, and he didn’t even bother with formalities. Among those present, apart from Fang Hai, he was the one closest to Dongfang Ji.

    Everyone else also had expressions of shock and anxiety, and they couldn’t help but look at Fang Hai.

    Panicked!

    None of the strong present were not worried.

    “Many secrets are unknown to the second-rate star masters, so I didn’t publicly disclose them.” Fang Hai said in a low voice, “But all of you are the core of our Seven Star Civilization… you should all have some understanding of the Nine Mountains World in the Burial of Immortals Ancient Region.”

    “Actually, at the end of 51, Master had already gone to the Nine Mountains World.” Fang Hai said.

    Everyone was slightly startled.

    This news was unknown to everyone present except Li Yuan, Fang Hai, and Lan Te Demigod.

    “That means you didn’t see Dongfang fall with your own eyes?” Bai Shan Demigod asked urgently, as if grasping at a lifeline.

    “Indeed not.”

    “Master went to the core region of the Nine Mountains World. With our strength, we can’t even set foot in such an area.” Fang Hai said bitterly, “According to Master’s words before he left, even if there were some dangers, at least his chances of survival were extremely high, but I never thought…”

    The core region of the Nine Mountains World? Xue Bu Demigod and Bai Shan Demigod were both shocked.

    Actually, almost all the demigods present had entered the Nine Mountains World, and most of them had gained some benefits… but none of them had the strength to reach the core region.

    “League Master.” Xue Long Demigod, dressed in white, said, “Did you confirm Dongfang League Master’s death through the Life Crystal?”

    The Life Crystal, almost every demigod in the Seven Star Alliance had refined one.

    “Not the Life Crystal.”

    “The place Master went, the Life Crystal cannot confirm life or death.” Fang Hai shook his head, “It was the Soul Lamp, it was a backup Master left before leaving, a higher-level object to confirm life or death… it was extinguished today.”

    Soul Lamp? Others might not understand.

    But Li Yuan knew its mystery, because he also refined a Soul Lamp and knew its value.

    As long as it was within this dimensional region, the Soul Lamp could confirm life or death.

    “The Soul Lamp extinguishing is only one reason.”

    Fang Hai said in a low voice, “Also, Master built many special bases on the Flying Star, and one of the bases imprisoned a number of alien demigods, among whom two demigods had been controlled by Master’s soul long ago.”

    “Many alien demigods?”

    “How come I haven’t heard of such a base?”

    “There are such special bases on the Flying Star?” This group of first-rate star masters were all surprised and couldn’t help but ask.

    Even Li Yuan was very surprised, imprisoning many demigods? Where were they captured from?

    “That’s not the point.”

    “Dongfang League Master’s strength far surpassed ours, and his contributions to the entire civilization are unimaginable. It’s not meaningful to let too many people know about many things.” Lan Te Demigod said coldly, “Keep listening to the League Master.”

    Everyone quieted down and continued to look at Fang Hai.

    “Today, at the same time as the Soul Lamp extinguished, the two demigods who were controlled by Master’s soul regained their freedom.” Fang Hai said in a low voice, “Of course, their souls were severely injured, so we easily suppressed them again.”

    “But many signs already show that Master… really fell.” Fang Hai said.

    A hush fell.

    If it was just the so-called “Soul Lamp” extinguishing, there could be a possibility of error, but the soul-controlled servants all returned to normal?

    This was hard to mistake.

    Most of the demigods present didn’t know soul control, but they had a general understanding of this legendary soul secret technique.

    Soul-controlled servants, once the master died, the soul imprint of the servant would gradually dissipate, and then regain their freedom… the process of regaining freedom would be painful, the servant’s soul would be severely injured, and there would be a possibility of permanent sleep, but they would most likely survive.

    The connection between souls is very special, and nothing can sever it even across many worlds.

    “Everyone.”

    “Master’s death is something no one wants to see, but it is the truth. No matter how unwilling we are to believe it, we must accept the current situation.” Fang Hai’s eyes were red, and he said in a low voice, “If we were just an ordinary civilization, it wouldn’t matter much, because Master left behind many measures, and our Seven Star Civilization has so many demigods, we won’t be bullied… but we are next to the Burial of Immortals Ancient Region.”

    “This has led to our Seven Star Civilization’s rapid rise.”

    “But it is also the source of all our troubles.”

    Everyone present looked grim.

    The Burial of Immortals Ancient Region, the source of the war of the gods ten thousand years ago, countless strong beings had perished there… Even though many civilizations didn’t know about the Seven Star Civilization’s shortcut star boundary to the Nine Leaves Nine Mountains.

    But just from the Seven Star Civilization’s rapid rise, it could be inferred that there were secrets within the Seven Star Civilization.

    Only with great strength could you protect secrets.

    “Once the Myriad Demon Civilization knows about Master’s death, they will go completely mad, repeating the Flying Star War, or even a more fierce war.” Fang Hai said in a low voice, “At that time, there may be a hundred, two hundred, or even more demigods invading.”

    Everyone’s hearts trembled.

    The Myriad Demon Civilization’s overall strength was far superior to the Seven Star Civilization’s. There were about a hundred demigod peak powerhouses alone.

    In the past, Dongfang Ji was too powerful, killing many demigods, his deterrent power was like that of a god, preventing the Myriad Demon Civilization from invading on a large scale, and peace had reigned for over a hundred years.

    Now, Dongfang Ji is gone.

    Would the Myriad Demon Civilization give up this opportunity?

    “That’s not right.” Xin Yu Demigod, the only female demigod present, said coldly, “League Master Fang Hai, Elder Lan Te… if Dongfang League Master really fell, shouldn’t we keep it a secret and buy time?”

    “With League Master Fang Hai and Vice League Master Li Yuan’s talent, if we can conceal it for three to five years, the situation will probably change drastically.” Xin Yu Demigod frowned, “Especially Vice League Master Li Yuan, who is now close to the peak of the demigod realm… once he breaks through to demigod, without saying that he has invincible demigod strength, reaching the demigod limit level should be easy.”

    Xin Yu Demigod expressed her doubts.

    “Yes! We should pretend nothing happened.”

    “We should continue to conceal it.”

    “Replacing the League Master, migrating the Flying Star… it’s too big a scale, even if there are no traitors among the demigods, but alien spies always exist, they will definitely guess, and the Myriad Demon Civilization, once they get the news, will definitely test us.” Everyone couldn’t help but speak.

    Even Li Yuan was confused, from a strategic point of view, Fang Hai should have concealed it.

    “Everyone.”

    “Things aren’t as simple as you think.” Lan Te Demigod said in a low voice, “Whether it’s Fang Hai succeeding as League Master or Li Yuan succeeding as Vice League Master… they are all orders from Dongfang League Master before he left, and they must be carried out… the specific reasons, you will know when the time is right.”

    “For the sake of civilization, some things must be kept secret.” Lan Te Demigod said solemnly, “Only I and the League Master know.”

    “Understood.”

    “Since Elder Lan Te said so, there must be a reason.”

    “We’ll obey.” Xin Yu Demigod, Yan Cheng Demigod, Tian Huo Demigod, and others all nodded.

    They also knew the importance.

    In the history of the Seven Star Civilization, there had been demigod spies… so only the most trusted could control the core secrets.

    Fang Hai breathed a sigh of relief. His greatest concern was that these demigods would force him to answer.

    In terms of strength, Fang Hai was confident that he could defeat other demigods, but his cultivation was short, and he didn’t have that absolute invincible strength.

    Therefore, if he wanted to lead the entire civilization, he needed prestige.

    Dongfang Ji was gone, only Lan Te Demigod had the prestige. His deeds of saving the civilization in the past were admired by all demigods, making everyone believe… Lan Te Demigod would never betray civilization.

    “As for leaking secrets?”

    “No matter how we keep it secret, the Myriad Demon Civilization will know about the League Master’s death, and they may even know now. This involves another secret of civilization.” Lan Te Demigod said in a low voice, “I’ll tell you the specific reasons later.”

    “We only need to know one thing.”

    “From now on, no matter how the Myriad Demon Civilization probes or attacks, or even invades, we must stop them.” Lan Te Demigod said solemnly, “As long as we hold on, even if the Flying Star falls, even if hundreds of billions of people die… as long as we can hold on.”

    “Hold on until the League Master or Vice League Master Li Yuan breaks through, then everything will be calm.”

    Everyone present looked at Fang Hai and Li Yuan.

    If the Myriad Demon Civilization already knew the truth, then war was imminent… most of them had cultivated for hundreds of years, and it was impossible for them to improve their strength in a short period of time.

    Only Fang Hai and Li Yuan.

    If we talk about the speed of cultivation and rise, Fang Hai was no less than Dongfang Ji… Li Yuan was even more exaggerated.

    In short, their existence gave the top leadership of the Seven Star Civilization hope of victory.

    “We have two major threats.” Lan Te Demigod said, “First, the Demon Mountain Star Boundary, which is the four-level star boundary where we border the Myriad Demon Civilization.”

    “It is also the only four-level star boundary entrance and exit of our Seven Star Civilization.”

    The four-level star boundary allowed demigods to freely enter and exit.

    Throughout history, most of the demigod wars that erupted in the Seven Star Civilization took place in the Demon Mountain Star Boundary.

    “We must guard the entrance and exit of the Demon Mountain Star Boundary.” Lan Te Demigod said, “As long as we guard this place, then the demigod peak powerhouses of the Myriad Demon Civilization won’t be able to break in.”

    “They won’t be able to destroy our civilization.”

    “In the past, with Dongfang League Master, he alone could guard the entrance, but now we need more demigods to guard it.” Lan Te Demigod said in a low voice.

    More demigods? Everyone’s hearts sank.

    How many demigods were there in the entire Seven Star Civilization?

    “Second, the three-level star boundaries on each planet… in the past, there was a demigod guarding each planet, the alien civilizations knew that even if they came in, they wouldn’t be able to shake our foundation, so they only probed occasionally and wouldn’t desperately try to break through the three-level star boundaries.” Lan Te Demigod said, “Like the crisis on the Lan Tie Star, the Myriad Demon Civilization only sent thousands of Heavenly Flight Warriors…”

    “But if we concentrate our demigods to guard the Demon Mountain Star Boundary, the power on the other planets will be weakened.”

    “If the Myriad Demon Civilization secretly joins forces with other civilizations and desperately attacks, launching attacks along all three-level star boundaries, the pressure they will put on us will be unprecedented.” Lan Te Demigod said.

    One by one, they nodded.

    That scenario, just thinking about it, was already desperate.

    If the Demon Mountain Star Boundary fell, everything would be over, a large number of demigods killing into the Flying Star and other planets… life would gradually be conquered, until they were ultimately wiped out.

    But if the other three-level star boundaries fell, a large number of Heavenly Flight-level aliens invaded, it would be a disaster as well.

    The crisis on the Lan Tie Star seemed to be overcome by the Seven Star Civilization.

    But what about the casualties? It would take months to rebuild.

    “We must prioritize guarding the Demon Mountain Star Boundary.” Fang Hai said in a low voice, “This is the key… Master set up a Source Energy Formation at the entrance and exit of the Demon Mountain Star Boundary, this formation is subtly connected to the entire Flying Star, demigods within it will have their strength greatly increased, the more demigods there are, the stronger the formation’s power.”

    “It is our biggest trump card against the Myriad Demon Civilization’s invasion.”

    “So, the mid-level demigods on the other planets must come here as much as possible.” Fang Hai said, “Even the low-level demigods, if they can come, come.”

    “We must stop the enemy here.”

    The Demon Mountain Star Boundary was the most important, otherwise, hundreds of demigods would completely break in, killing and slaughtering everywhere, even if they ultimately won, the entire Seven Star Civilization would become ruins.

    “What about the other planets?” Xin Yu Demigod couldn’t help but ask, “What to do? Like this battle on the Lan Tie Star, those three alien demigods were so powerful, low-level demigods couldn’t stop them.”

    “Each planet will leave a minimum number of demigods,” Fang Hai said, his eyes shining brightly, “Then, it will depend on Li Yuan and his spirit beasts.”

    “On me?” Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, then he immediately understood what Fang Hai meant.

    “I can freely travel through all the star boundaries and then provide support to the six planets at any time?” Li Yuan thought to himself, his gun technique attacks couldn’t match the demigod peak powerhouses.

    But in terms of rescue and support, he could reach any planet within a few hours, something no demigod could achieve. This was the advantage of the Heavenly Flight Realm.
