The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 534 The Great Wilderness City Dragged into the Trouble
At this moment, outside the Great Wilderness City, an invisible giant screen floated in mid-air.

The giant screen was displaying scene after scene, showing the beginning and end of the attack on the spirit-catching ship, as if the scene was being replayed.

On the city wall of Great Wilderness City, dozens of figures watched with grim expressions, each one filled with anger yet able to remain calm and restrained.

After the giant screen finished its demonstration and silently dissipated, a Taiyi appeared, standing on a cloud, and said in a deep voice, "My master's demands are very simple: either your Great Wilderness City hand over the culprits who committed the evil deeds, or you must compensate for all the losses. You don't need to deny it or make excuses. This was personally deduced by the Black-Clad Divine Lord. If you are not satisfied, you can also call out Emperor Xiong Jia. As a ninth-level Taiyi, he should be able to distinguish between truth and falsehood."

"That's all I have to say. My master will be coming to Great Wilderness City in three days. I hope you can give my master an explanation."

Having said that, Taiyi tossed out a jade slip containing relevant evidence and then turned to leave.

For a moment, the high-ranking elders of the Bear Clan on the city wall looked at each other in bewilderment; their worst fears had come true.

They were certain that they hadn't done it. The remaining branches of the Mangshan Ancient Bear had all retreated and were now in the Great Wilderness City. Even if there were a few who couldn't return in time, they definitely didn't have the strength to overturn a spirit-capturing ship. Moreover, judging from the simulation just now, that guy was at least at the seventh level of Taiyi. No, no, no, that's not how it's calculated. There's definitely a big problem here.

"Go and invite the clan leader!"

An elder of the bear clan sighed, for there was only one person in the entire Great Wilderness City capable of doing such a thing, and that was Bear Emperor Jia, the new clan leader of the Mangshan Ancient Bear Clan.

But this was definitely not the work of Xiong Dijia. You're kidding, he's been in seclusion all these years.

Even if there was no seclusion, what was the motivation?
Peace returned to Great Wilderness City, and Wang Wu, who was hiding in a corner of the Immortal Array, witnessed the whole thing.

He wasn't surprised. It was to be expected. With a half-step Grand Luo making a move, what couldn't he deduce? It was already quite good that they hadn't been able to deduce his name, past life, and present existence.

He was aware of this from the beginning and had clearly considered the pros and cons.

He did this for three reasons.

Firstly, he desperately needs spiritual energy to continue evolving Yin Fire and Evil Wind, which is the foundation of his existence. Of course, he doesn't need much; he had already evolved each of them twice, consuming less than 30 billion points of spiritual energy.

Secondly, he didn't know the situation of the six half-step Grand Luo who sealed the immortal array, but one thing was certain: the two sides had not yet reached a consensus. This could be seen from the violent fluctuations of the sealing immortal array. Otherwise, who would be so shameless as to run out to hunt Taiyi and Dixian to refine immortal pills?

This means that even if he did this, at most only one half-step Great Luo Immortal could spare the time to hunt him down.

They couldn't even draw a half-step Great Luo.

Therefore, if he doesn't take action now, and waits until those six half-step Great Luo cultivators each split into one of the 1, 2, 3, and the Great and Small Kings, then any rash move he makes will be courting death!
With the flow of the twenty-four solar terms disrupted, those six half-step Grand Luo cultivators were truly capable of monopolizing and dictating all spiritual energy.

Therefore, there is a third reason.

Wang Wu did not want the cultivation world to become a situation of one superpower, a few strong, and many weak in the future. He hoped that a pattern of two superpowers, many strong, and a few weak would emerge, so that they could check and restrain each other.

This is also why he didn't hesitate to take out 7000 billion spiritual energy in Yinyuan Town before.

If we don't seize this opportunity to organize the scattered Taiyi, what chance will we have in the future?

To achieve this goal, he was even willing to use himself as bait to draw the other party's attention to him, even at the cost of exposing himself.

Things are progressing quite well now. On the one hand, we are nurturing and developing the Hidden Origin City, and on the other hand, we are also able to involve the Great Wilderness City.

That's right, he hid in a corner of this immortal array not to avoid being discovered, but precisely so that he could be discovered.

The goal is to drag the Mangshan Ancient Bear Clan and the Great Wilderness City into the conflict and make them participate in the war!

As for the Hidden Origin Town, it doesn't matter whether Elder Grey and the others guessed it or worked together to capture Hairy Lord and hand over the 'real culprit', because even if they handed over the real culprit, their fate wouldn't be much better. Therefore, they are the most determined and will definitely resist to the end.

Wang Wu wasn't worried at all.

Now it all depends on Dahuang City. Is it really wavering, or what? Is it really ceding territory to sue for peace and pay reparations?
We should know the outcome in less than three days.

In reality, the Great Wilderness City reacted quite quickly. Although the Bear Emperor Jia did not show up, he sent more than a dozen Bear Clan Taiyi to escort a special eternal immortal artifact straight to Yinyuan Town.

This is certainly not an attack on Yinyuan Town, but rather an alliance.

The Great Wilderness City finally made its choice, just as Wang Wu had hoped.

In reality, they had no other choice. Although they knew they hadn't done it, backing down today meant they didn't know how many steps they would have to take in the future, and it seemed like there was no end in sight. Sooner or later, they would be attacked. That much was certain.

This was also Wang Wu's firm belief.

Soon, the message came back from 200,000 miles away.

After discussing for a while with Elder Hui and the other twelve Bear Clan Taiyi, they took out the materials themselves and began to expand the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Immortal Formation. What they brought was not just materials for twelve pits, but as many as fifty pits.

Because at the same time, they were also recruiting soldiers and powerful Taiyi, with only one prerequisite: join the Great Wilderness City, become an outer elder of the Great Wilderness City, and temporarily reside in the Hidden Origin Town.

Naturally, there were many who responded. In the past few days, many Taiyi people have fled from all directions, including some Taiyi of the sixth and seventh ranks.

These were all recruited by the Great Wilderness City, and even some Taiyi who had already secured their positions took the initiative to show goodwill to the Great Wilderness City.

In a short period of time, the Bear Clan of Great Wilderness City managed to secure 130 pit slots from Hidden Origin Town, while the entire Hidden Origin Town currently only has 280 pit slots.

He has effectively become the largest shareholder.

Although Old Gray was unhappy, there was nothing he could do. People always strive for better things. The Great Wilderness City had the resources, and with its participation, they would be even more confident in dealing with the approaching spirit-capturing ships.

Three more days passed before the spirit-catching ship slowly arrived, reaching the Great Wilderness City. A terrifying pressure covered an area of ​​hundreds of thousands of miles, and even the small city of Yinyuan, two hundred thousand miles away, could feel it.

Without hesitation, divine light rose above the Great Wilderness City, echoing the Hidden Origin City two hundred thousand miles away, proving to be no less powerful than the spirit-capturing ship.

It can only be said that the Great Wilderness City still has a very deep foundation.

"Brother Di Jia, it's been three thousand years since we last met, and you are as radiant as ever. I am heartbroken that things have developed to this point. Therefore, out of consideration for our past relationship, I hope you will hand over the murderer and not drag the Great Wilderness City or the Mangshan Ancient Bear Clan into this conflict. I have here an edict personally written by three Divine Lords, which only punishes the ringleader and does not involve the others. It also pardons the comrades in Yinyuan Small City. The conflict ends here. This edict is presented to the heavens, and the Yin and Yang energies bear witness!"

"Otherwise, you will be forced to accept the consequences. In the future, the three Divine Lords will retain the right to act arbitrarily. Do not say you were not warned!"

As the voice fell, three documents shot into the sky, transforming into a beam of clear light. They truly drew upon the Yin and Yang energies, resembling a covenant, which was quite intimidating. Of course, this was also a sign of sincerity, using the reputations of these three half-step Grand Luo cultivators as collateral.

It has a certain air about it, as if the richest man in the mortal world wouldn't care about such a small thing.

However, mortals might still be fooled, and even cultivators and some novice Earth Immortals might be fooled, but at the Taiyi level, it is basically impossible.

"I'm sorry, Lord Li Huo! This wasn't done by our Great Wilderness City. You're just throwing accusations at us like this, and then you try to appear generous. I don't see a shred of sincerity in you. So what if you're one of the three Divine Lords? We didn't attack the Spirit-Capturing Ship, that's the only fact. You can't blame everything on Great Wilderness City just because an ancient bear was suspected of being involved. After all, over the countless years, the Mangshan Ancient Bear Clan has exiled at least two or three thousand sinful bears, and they've long since severed all ties with the Mangshan Ancient Bears."

"If you want war today, then war is ours. We, the Great Wilderness City, will fight to the end. But if you want us to acknowledge this, then you're dreaming!"

Within the Great Wilderness City, a loud and authoritative voice rang out, revealing the city's stance.

"Good good!"

On the opposite spirit-catching ship, Lord Li Huo laughed loudly and said nothing more. With a wave of his hand, the three divine documents that had transformed into a clear light and merged with the Yin and Yang energies in the high sky suddenly turned into three immortal talismans. Guided by the Yin and Yang energies, they fell straight down and instantly sealed a permanent immortal artifact in the Great Wilderness City, the kind of immortal artifact that can interfere with the soul.

It's impossible to break free from it in a short time.

However, the Great Wilderness City has a profound foundation, and it has more than just this one eternal immortal artifact. Immediately, a roar was heard, and an ancient bear phantom with a height of over ten thousand miles pounced on the spirit-catching ship, binding it and making it unable to move no matter how the Three Calamities Longsail flapped.

Even more surprisingly, this ancient bear illusion could transform into a physical form, but it was no longer an ancient bear. Instead, it consisted of thick vines and countless rocks and stones, like mountains, trapping the spirit-capturing ship within them. It was impossible for the ship to escape in the short term.

The next second, the only Taiyi Ninth Rank cultivator in the Great Wilderness City went all out and began fighting against the Li Huo Jun on the other side.

Once those two make a move, there's basically no room for anyone else to intervene.

Even the small town of Yinyuan to the north would have to exert all its strength just to block and resist the aftermath of this battle.

Wang Wu, watching from the shadows, was also shocked, because these two were using the power of evolving the Three Calamities, something that other Taiyi cultivators could not even dream of.

It's like comparing a car to a fighter jet, how can you compare them?
They completely crushed them.

However, this is exactly what Wang Wu was hoping for. This time, he is not the protagonist; the protagonists are these two. Whether this battle can bring hundreds of years of peace depends entirely on who can prevail.
