Qingyu looked at everyone and then said, "What we need to do now is figure out how to keep the people of the Seven Realms occupied. It's ridiculous, really. We've always looked down on the people of the Seven Realms. We only thought about defeating them. But now, it's the other way around. We have to keep them occupied. There's nothing we can do about it. With an expert like Zhao Hai around, we can only adjust our position. How things will develop in the future depends on the sect. We can't do anything about it."

Everyone nodded, their expressions grave. Qingyu continued, "I think our previous plan is still feasible. Using large magical artifacts to entangle the people from the Seven Realms, along with the attacks of our Royal Palace-level and Imperial Chariot-level experts, we should be able to hold them off. As for the Throne-level and Power-level cultivators, I think we should leave them in the large magical artifacts. The people from the Seven Realms are definitely ambitious; they will expand outwards. And if they want to expand, the first thing they'll do is deal with us. If they really want to deal with us, we must leave enough manpower in the large magical artifacts. If we can't leave enough manpower in the large magical artifacts, they won't be able to unleash their full combat power when they attack us, and that will be dangerous. In any case, we must protect our large magical artifacts. Once our large magical artifacts are destroyed, we won't even have anything to stop their attacks. So we must protect our large magical artifacts."

Everyone fell silent upon hearing Qingyu's words. Qingyu was right; they had to protect their large magical artifacts. The Seven Realms possessed many such artifacts, and if they lost theirs, they would be helpless against the Seven Realms' larger ones in the future. Were they really going to send a Royal Palace-level expert to deal with the Seven Realms' large magical artifacts? While that was an option, destroying a large magical artifact was no easy task for a single Royal Palace-level expert. They could only entangle them, but that was a temporary solution. If they truly united all their Royal Palace-level experts to destroy those large magical artifacts, wouldn't that lure Zhao Hai out as well?
Qingyu glanced at everyone and then said, "Actually, we don't need to worry too much. Zhao Hai is indeed very strong, but don't forget that our Meteorite Domain isn't completely without backers. Once those big shots are really lured out, the people of the Seven Universes Realm will be finished. Zhao Hai is strong, but can he be stronger than those big shots? In fact, I think our current situation is a good thing. If those big shots really want to deal with Zhao Hai, we can use this to ambush him and then take care of him directly. Wouldn't that be better?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard him say that, but then their eyes lit up. They all understood what Qingyu meant. Qingyu was right. They did have a powerful backer. The Meteorite Domain was just a very small and remote area of ​​the Divine Realm. Because of its special terrain, the Divine Realm had not discovered it for very long. After discovering it, they only sent some people to develop it. And the people they sent were just some ordinary disciples from their sect. They left the ordinary disciples here and then ignored it, because the people in the Divine Realm didn't care about the resources produced here.

In the eyes of the people of the Divine Realm, the Meteorite Domain is nothing more than a desolate and barren place, with nothing worth paying attention to. As for the people of the Eight Great Sects and the One Hundred and Eight Great Families, although they seem to be very prestigious in the Meteorite Domain, if you really look at it, their ancestors were nothing more than outcasts from some forces in the Divine Realm who had made mistakes, essentially exiled to the Meteorite Domain.

Although they were exiled, it didn't mean they had no connection with the people of the Divine Realm. In fact, they still maintained contact, offering tributes. However, their power level was now vastly different from that of the Divine Realm. Their relationship with the powers there was like that of a vassal state and its overlord. Every so often, they would send gifts to the overlord, who would reciprocate. The reason they sent these gifts to the overlord was quite clear: to pay protection money. If they ever faced a catastrophe that could wipe out their entire race, they could seek help from the overlord. This was the reason they sent these gifts.

That's why Qingyu said that they weren't without backers; the forces in the divine realms were their backers. If they really needed help, they would ask those forces for assistance. However, if they did that, the price they would have to pay would be very high. So, unless it was absolutely necessary, they wouldn't ask those forces for help because the price they would have to pay was simply too high.

In fact, the reason why the eight major sects and the 108 great families have continued to exist and have almost never truly collapsed is primarily due to the powerful forces behind them. While there are conflicts and clashes among the eight major sects and the 108 great families, they have almost never gone so far as to wipe them out. They dare not. Not only the eight major sects, but even the 108 great families have powerful backers, so they won't truly kill each other. Otherwise, if they provoked their backers to act, it would be a serious problem.

In fact, the eight major sects and the 108 major families all knew that even if something really happened to them, the forces behind them might not necessarily help them. However, they dared not gamble. If the forces behind them really took action, it would be a real problem. It's like an arrow. An arrow is most intimidating when it is drawn but not released. Once the arrow is released, it loses its intimidating power because everyone knows where it is going to be shot.

The forces behind the eight major sects and the 108 major families are actually like nuclear weapons. Everyone has them, but no one dares to use them because you don't know whether the nuclear weapon will fail or cause you to perish together.

However, this time the situation is somewhat different. This time they are dealing with the Seven Realms, not fighting each other. Under these circumstances, they can ask the forces behind them to take action. Although they will have to pay a price, if they are really pushed to the limit, they can indeed do so.

Thinking of this, everyone felt a sense of relief. When you have no trump cards, you might worry, but when you do, it's a completely different story, at least in terms of mindset. Qingyu could tell from their expressions that their mindset had changed, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was worried that these people would become hesitant and timid because of their fear of Zhao Hai; if that happened, they would be finished. Therefore, he had to change their mindset. The rest depended on the decisions of the various sects and families; he believed they wouldn't act recklessly.

Meanwhile, Qingxuan was having a meeting with the hall masters of the Daoist Sect. Qingxuan showed the hall masters Qingyu's jade slip, and after reading it, their expressions all became somewhat puzzled. One of them looked at Qingxuan with some confusion and said, "Is what Qingyu said true? This is too far-fetched, isn't it? A place like the Seven Realms, could such a master appear? One person could withstand an attack from more than a hundred of them at the same time? That's impossible, isn't it?"

Everyone looked at Qingxuan in disbelief. Qingxuan smiled bitterly and then said in a deep voice, "What Qingyu said is true. I have inquired and found that not only Qingyu, but other sects and families have also received the same news. It is impossible that everyone on the Jade Bamboo Continent is lying, right? So this matter is true. In other words, a master has indeed appeared in the Seven Universes Realm, and his strength is extremely powerful."

Everyone fell silent, their faces turning grim. They had initially thought the Seven Realms were just a minor problem, but now they realized they were wrong. The Seven Realms were not a minor problem, but a catastrophe. If there really was such a powerful figure behind the Seven Realms, then it would truly be a disaster for them.

Qingxuan glanced at everyone and then said, "Now let's discuss how to deal with the Seven Universe Realms. With such strength, the Seven Universe Realms will never be content with just occupying the Jade Bamboo Continent. They will definitely gradually devour the entire Meteorite Domain. We must come up with a way to deal with the Seven Universe Realms, or rather, kill Zhao Hai from the Seven Universe Realms. Only in this way can we rest easy."

Everyone nodded. At this moment, a hall master spoke up: "To kill Zhao Hai, it seems there are only two ways. First, we can gather the strength of the eight major sects and the 108 major families, and work together to kill Zhao Hai. However, this is not an easy task. Zhao Hai is alone, so his movements will be very agile. In addition, the Seven Realms have the ability to teleport away at any time, so killing him will be very difficult, but it is not impossible. Second, we can provide assistance."

He stopped talking about the word "rescue," but everyone understood what he meant and who he was asking for help from; they all knew, so he didn't need to elaborate. At the same time, everyone understood what doing so would signify.

Qingxuan frowned, then said, "We can talk about asking for help later. It's not that time yet. What we need to do now is to unite with other sects and families and find a way to get rid of Zhao Hai. Once Zhao Hai is gone, it will be too easy for us to deal with those people in the Seven Realms. What do you think?"

Everyone nodded, and then an elder spoke up, "That's indeed the way to go. This matter needs to be discussed thoroughly with all the sects and families." (End of Chapter)
