Chapter 2743 Taishi Ci's Fortuitous Encounter, [The Three Profound Ultimate Heaven]!
Generally speaking, a feudal lord's camp was set up about five miles apart, and the style of each feudal lord's camp was different, reflecting their different status and background.

Yuan Shao's camp was located in the middle, and was very large. It was ten miles away from the camps on both sides. It was decorated in a magnificent manner, and the flags were embroidered with a large "Yuan" character, which fluttered in the wind, showing his majesty as the leader of the alliance.

The patrolling soldiers around them stood tall and straight, with bright, piercing eyes; they were clearly elite troops.

The people in the camps on either side of Yuan Shao were not ordinary people, but Cao Cao and Qiao Mao, two meritorious officials who had fought against Dong Zhuo.

Cao Cao's tent on the right was simple and practical. Although not as luxurious as Yuan Shao's tent, it exuded a sense of discipline and efficiency. The patrol teams, though few in number, were heavily fortified. Around Cao Cao's tent, the soldiers were spirited and full of fighting spirit—an elite force that had been tempered by countless battles.

Compared to Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, Qiao Mao's camp was much inferior. Patrols passed by frequently, seemingly vigilant, but lacked coordination. Moreover, many soldiers were lazy and irresponsible. It was obvious to anyone with discerning eyes that Qiao Mao was not good at military management.

Among the numerous tents, one stood out as particularly unique. It lacked ornate decorations and numerous guards, yet it exuded an air of mystery.

Inside the tent, a young general sat quietly; he was none other than our protagonist, Lin Mu.

At this moment, Lin Mu's calm expression revealed a resolute determination. He was reviewing the latest intelligence.

"Stingy, so petty!"

"Why not bring Liu Bei and me along? Why not bring along more warlords? Like Cao Cao and Liu Dai... If we bring them along, we can share the grain we seize. This will definitely cripple Yuan Shu and make Yuan Shao very distressed."

"Now things are stuck in a limbo..." Lin Mu sighed regretfully as he looked at the intelligence report on Sun Jian's attack on Yuan Shu's camp.

In his previous life, Sun Jian did not so aggressively seize the allied forces' provisions controlled by Yuan Shu. This time, however, Sun Jian held back Yuan Shu's main force, allowing Yiren to seize a small amount of provisions.

This step may seem to violate the rules of blood oath, but it is not without reason. Heaven has not shown any unusual signs, which means that Sun Jian has not completely violated the covenant.

Such an opportunity only comes once, and Sun Jian failed to capitalize on it. If he could have united more forces to join forces, they would have been allies among allies, and Yuan Shao would have had no say in the matter. Moreover, the amount of loot he could have seized would have caused Yuan Shu even more pain, and venting his anger over Zu Mao's death would have been even more satisfying.

Lin Mu opened the second intelligence report, which concerned the situation inside Hulao Pass. There had been significant changes among the Xiliang generals within Hulao Pass.

Lin Mu's eyes flickered slightly, and he had already made a plan in his mind. At present, all the various lords had arrived at Hulao Pass, and their armies were pressing in. Hua Xiong and others in the city had not made any moves.

Once Hulao Pass is breached, Luoyang, the capital, will essentially be under enemy control. Coupled with the presence of internal agents within Luoyang, the fall of the capital is practically inevitable. Therefore, the Battle of Hulao Pass is a crucial battle.

The arrival of the Guandong Allied Forces at Hulao Pass had already provoked Dong Zhuo. He had begun making backup plans.

Most of the Dong Zhuo troops who retreated did not stay at Hulao Pass, but were instead brought back to Shen Du Luo.

Even generals like Fan Chou and Li Su led most of the Xiliang cavalry back to the capital.

Xu Rong, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, and others were originally on the recall list, but they seemed to know what they were going to do when they returned, and the two of them stayed on the pretext of dealing with the Allied forces.

Lu Bu's Bingzhou cavalry was also to be recalled, but Zhang Liao insisted on staying.

In other words, besides Hua Xiong, Hulao Pass also had other famous generals such as Zhang Liao, Xu Rong, and Zhang Ji.

"I have a hidden mole I planted in advance inside Hulao Pass. Should I use it, or should I let the allies wear us down until Dong Zhuo completes the relocation of the capital and then automatically abandon Hulao Pass?" Lin Mu hesitated at this moment.

In fact, his original intention was to let the allied forces and Dong Zhuo wear each other down for a while, because he knew that after the allied forces entered Luoyang, the capital, there would be a great melee!

When the national treasury and the Imperial Seal of the State appear, it will surely cause great turmoil.

"Never mind, let's take a look first."

Lin Mu then opened the third intelligence report, which concerned the capital city of Luoyang. Currently, the nursery rhyme has already spread throughout Luoyang:
There's a Han man at the west end and a Han man at the east end.

Only when the deer enters Chang'an can this difficulty be avoided.

Clearly, Dong Zhuo's camp had already made all the necessary preparations for the relocation of the capital and was now officially beginning the process.

In fact, from the moment the main force of the allied forces entered Sili, Dong Zhuo had already followed Li Ru's advice and moved the capital to Chang'an, the royal city.

The recent campaign of the Xiliang cavalry was actually aimed at hindering the advance of the Guandong Allied Forces and buying time for the relocation of the capital.

The capital was moved because the opposition was too strong. Although it was temporarily suppressed in the court, the opposition was deeply entrenched, and Dong Zhuo himself had very few supporters in the court. The officials he promoted were simply unable to support the operation of the entire court.

Therefore, he doesn't dare to go too far most of the time.

Among the opposition, the most hardline were the Yuan and Yang families.

In order to ensure the smooth relocation of the capital, to intimidate the civil and military officials and the people of the city, to make Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu regret their actions, and to intimidate the Guandong Coalition, Dong Zhuo ruthlessly slaughtered all the heroes of the Yuan family who remained in the capital.

Even Liu Hong wouldn't dare to do such a thing. But Dong Zhuo did it!

"I hope the 150,000 Nightshade soldiers can manage to grab some meat..." Lin Mu murmured to himself.

Dong Zhuo slaughtered the entire Yuan family, so the Yuan family's wealth in the capital was now ownerless. Isn't this similar to the previous "burying flowers and grafting trees" incident...?

However, considering the sheer number of Dong Zhuo's troops in Luoyang, a more cautious and swift approach was necessary, hence the deployment of 150,000 Night Shadow soldiers to carry out this task. "Should we expose that pawn we planted long ago here, or wait until the Battle of Chang'an?"

"Forget it, let's just wait for the Battle of Chang'an according to the plan..." Lin Mu kept thinking about the recent events and the subsequent plans, but he did not change the original plan.

Just then, the pages of the Qiankun Mother-Child Book in Lin Mu's arms began to vibrate.

He took it out and looked at it, then his brows furrowed sharply:
"My lord, I may be powerless to help General Taishi Ci with his signature weapon!"

The messenger was Pu Yuan, the chief swordsmith of the Great Wilderness Territory.

"The Seven Star Sword Forging Pool is, after all, a treasure specifically for forging swords, and it won't be of much help in reforging Taishi Ci's halberd..."

"Then how about activating [Sacrifice Wish Blessing]?" Lin Mu pondered.

At this moment, the pages of the Qiankun Mother-Child Book began to vibrate again.

"My lord, that place has opened! It's opened!! I don't know how, but I sensed it just now!!!"

Lin Mu was a little confused when he saw this line of text. What had been opened? Pu Yuan hadn't mentioned anything about it...

"My lord, please come back!"

The fact that he was sent back to the Great Wilderness Territory from Hulao Pass clearly indicates that there are very important matters to discuss, which cannot be explained in the Qiankun Mother-Child Book in a short time.

"Shuheng, I'm going back for a bit. You stay and keep watch." Lin Mu instructed Wang Yue, who stood behind him like a ghost.

"promise."

The next moment, Lin Mu used the Kun Stone to return directly to the Divine Dragon Valley.

He quickly returned to the council hall and saw Pu Yuan and Taishi Ci waiting anxiously.

"What happened?" Lin Mu asked directly without exchanging pleasantries with the two.

The two men were about to bow when Lin Mu waved them off, and Pu Yuan immediately replied, "My lord, the Three Profound Extreme True Heavens have opened!!!"

Lin Mu shuddered upon hearing the name of the Three Profound Extreme True Heaven.

The Ten Great Grotto-Heavens of China, the Western Mysterious Grotto-Heaven, is also known as the Three Mysterious Extreme True Heavens!
"Do you know how it's turned on? Where is it? Can you sense it?" Lin Mu asked immediately.

"I don't know exactly how to activate it, nor do I know its exact location, but I can sense it. I can get there using a special item!"

"This is Ziyi's great opportunity!!!" Pu Yuan exclaimed excitedly.

Seeing Pu Yuan so excited, it seems that the Three Mysterious Extreme True Heaven must be a great blessed land for casting!
"What prop?" Lin Mu asked in a deep voice.

"Tokens such as the [Three Profound Truths Great Token], the [Three Profound Truths Small Token], and the [Three Profound Truths Talisman], or the rare item [Fish Leaping Over the Dragon Gate Scroll]!"

“I consulted Yuan Jian, and we don’t have any tokens of the Three Profound True Heavens in our Great Wilderness Territory, but we do have a rare item called the ‘Fish Leaping Over the Dragon Gate Scroll’.”

"As long as I use this scroll, I can get in!"

"My lord, there's no time to lose! We must get there quickly, or it will close again!" Pu Yuan said urgently. He had a premonition that the Three Profound True Heavens wouldn't be open for very long.

"Then take the things with you. It's an emergency, so we should act quickly," Lin Mu said.

"Um... As far as I know, after I use the [Fish Leaps Over the Dragon Gate Scroll], I can bring two followers. Aren't you going, my lord?" Pu Yuan asked in confusion.

"What?! The [Fish Leaping Over the Dragon Gate Scroll] can carry people?!" Lin Mu's expression changed drastically upon hearing this.

They've used the [Fish Leaps Over the Dragon Gate Scroll] before, but they've never taken anyone with them. If that's true, how many opportunities have they missed!
“Others won’t work, but this Three Profound Extreme True Heaven is different, and since I am the user, there are also differences. This may be a specific situation,” Pu Yuan explained.

"Are you ready?" Lin Mu asked, looking at Taishi Ci.

“We’re all ready. Oh, right, this is what Yuanjian prepared for our lord in advance. We don’t know what the situation will be like once we get there, so Yuanjian took some treasures out of the treasure cave in advance to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.” Taishi Ci handed a ring to Lin Mu.

"Okay." Sure enough, smart people are decisive and thorough in their work.

“You all stand next to me,” Pu Yuan said quickly.

Lin Mu and Taishi Ci arrived at Pu Yuan's side, and Pu Yuan took out a scroll and used it. A strong purple light flashed, and the three of them disappeared.

At this moment, above the True Dragon Pavilion, a huge scroll of light and shadow slowly unfolded, depicting an immense landscape, seemingly a prosperous place in the Divine Land.

However, upon closer inspection, one will find three golden dots on the scroll of light and shadow, and soon the three golden dots turned into six!
