The mastermind behind the scenes starting with the calamity of all races

Soon, they divided into five groups of twenty and flew off in five different directions to begin a comprehensive search.

······

at the same time.

The entrance to the ruins of Fengyun Pavilion.

Hongtu and Bai Changsheng, now replaced by blue sky, paused here.

Lan Tian was aware of the commotion outside, so he stood guard at the entrance to the ruins, ready to strike immediately if anyone entered.

However, the power of heaven and earth that Yun Jie exerted at the entrance of the ruins deceived everyone. Even though the group of experts had passed by the entrance, they did not notice anything amiss.

Moreover, as the Hong family's private ruins, even if the Fengyun Pavilion ruins are found, it would be difficult to enter without a token.

Unlike Yun Jie, who entered the Fengyun Pavilion ruins directly because the system was working on it, otherwise, even he would have had to forcibly tear open the space to enter the ruins.

Even those at the pinnacle cannot achieve this, while sages can barely manage it.

The noise from the outside world is getting quieter and quieter, and the sound source is getting farther and farther away.

Seeing this, Lan Tian, ​​who was inside the ruins, lifted the guard and retreated into the depths of the ruins.

Meanwhile, the stone and tree clones outside the ruins moved to different positions and fell silent again.

The news was received immediately, even though Lan Tian himself was thousands of miles away.

“Your Majesty, there are people outside looking for us. Judging from their strength, they should be at the pinnacle of the new martial arts realm. There are quite a few of them, more than a hundred. Judging from their attitude, it seems like they won’t give up until they find us.”

“They’ve searched Nanyue Province several times over, but since they can’t find us, they’ve now expanded their search to several surrounding provinces.”

"Judging from what they said, they should be coming to Tianxing City next time."

Should we continue playing hide-and-seek with them?

Within the Great Dao Universe, before two enormous and dazzling sword-shaped star rivers, Lan Tian calmly smiled and spoke to Yun Jie.

Upon hearing this, Yun Jie raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly, "So many people have come out? Quite a few, do they think highly of me?"

In fact, Yun Jie was not surprised at all. He had already anticipated that his clone would raise its strength to the ninth level of the Mountain and Sea Realm.

He just didn't expect that Zheng Yu and the others would make such a big decision, sending out over a hundred top experts at once. It must be that they sent out all the top experts they had cultivated over the years.

Yun Jie estimated that this number, if not all, should be close enough.

Even among those above the Immortal level, Zheng Yu didn't cultivate many people; those at the pinnacle level were the main component of his forces.

The next moment, Yun Jie turned to look at Su Yu and the others, and said with a smile, "What do you guys think? Want to play with them?"

Without even thinking, Su Yu said directly, "Then let's have some fun. Let the clone play with them. There are over a hundred people; we'll have a good time."

King Wen casually said, "Should I send my clone back? He's currently on the Western Continent, and it would take him a day to get back even if he went all out."

After thinking for a moment and confirming the location of the Silver Moon clone, Yun Jie said, "My clone is still in the Central Continent. It won't take half a day for it to get back."

After pondering for a moment, Wan Tiansheng said seriously, "No need. I think our three clones can handle them. Don't forget, our clones can all draw on the power of heaven and earth. Although their realms are vast, the strength they can unleash is far more than that."

Upon hearing this, Yun Jie and Wen Wang nodded in agreement. Wan Tiansheng was right; he, Su Yu, and Lan Tian together were enough to deal with those hundreds of top experts.

"That's settled then, hehe."

Blue Sky Smiles.

The next moment, as if he had suddenly thought of something, Yun Jie reminded him, "Don't make the battlefield in Tianxing City. Try to stay away from the crowds and avoid harming innocent people."

"clear."

Su Yu and the other two nodded in unison.

Even if Yun Jie didn't say anything, they would still set up the battlefield outside the city and annihilate the enemy outside.

After all, Tianxing City has such a large population; to exaggerate a bit, a single brick could kill several people, let alone in a large-scale battle.

Unless absolutely necessary, they will never harm the innocent; this is their bottom line as human beings.

······

at the same time.

Outside, in Tianxing City.

The clones of Su Yu and his two companions also learned the news from their main body.

At this moment, the three of them gathered together. Su Yu looked at Lan Tian and said, "Lan Tian, ​​I'm entrusting the intelligence matter to you. You must keep track of their whereabouts. Once they arrive at Tianxing Sea, we'll go out and intercept them ahead of time."

Tianxing City is a megacity with a permanent population of over 100 million and an incredibly vast area. It is surrounded by an ocean called Tianxing Sea.

To reach Tianxing City, one must cross the Tianxing Sea.

Lan Tian did not refuse, nodded, and said seriously, "You can rest assured about this, just leave it to me."

Lan Tian is a professional when it comes to intelligence and surveillance!

Then, Su Yu turned to Wan Tiansheng and said, "Let's deal with them first, and then take over the Tianxing Dynasty."

If they step forward now, the other side is very likely to receive the message, turn around, and come straight to Tianxing City.

Therefore, it's better to wait for them to come to us on their own, so that we can catch them off guard.

Wan Tiansheng nodded, having no objections.

He has always seen himself as a support, whether in the world of myriad races or here.

Aside from occasionally offering suggestions, he's a master of nodding.

Compared to him, Lan Tian's role is more obvious; he's a complete tool, filling in wherever needed, almost omnipotent.

Although they could do what Lan Tian did, it would still be somewhat troublesome and not as convenient as Lan Tian's.

Lan Tian had long since accepted his fate. He was just a tool, after all. Among the five of them, apart from Wan Tiansheng, he was the weakest.

The weak have no voice and can only obediently serve as tools, crying and whining.

Then, Lan Tian sent his clones southward. The Southern Yue Province and Tianxing City were separated only by the Tianxing Sea, so he only needed to wait for them along the way.

······

Time passed slowly, and two more days went by in the blink of an eye.

Including the previous two days, the royal family and the nine officials have been missing for more than four days.

In just four days, Tianxing City descended into complete chaos. Various forces and ambitious individuals emerged, all seemingly preparing for a major battle, hoping to crush their rivals, replace the royal family and the Nine Departments, and seize the throne as the supreme ruler.

Little did they know, someone was sitting on a cloud, looking down on them like a god, watching their every move, waiting for the right moment to capture them all and wipe them out.

"It's like all sorts of monsters and demons have come out."

"There are quite a few delusional people who don't even consider their own worth."

"It's normal. They say heroes emerge in times of chaos. When times are chaotic, everyone thinks they can become a hero and have the last laugh, but little do they know... hehe."

"It's truly laughable that a group of whimsical people would fight tooth and nail for a position that is neither here nor there."

High in the sky, Su Yu and his two companions looked down at the entire Tianxing City, taking in the chaos below. As they observed, they discussed the situation as if it had nothing to do with them.

This is what is meant by sitting back and watching the winds of change rise and fall.

The recent chaos in Tianxing City is also a result of their laissez-faire attitude. Only in this way will those ambitious people take the initiative to come out, saving them the trouble of searching for them later.

Rather than causing endless trouble later, it's better to let them surface on their own. Once they're on the surface, it will be difficult for them to sink again.

"No rush, let them jump around a little longer, they'll regret it later."

After saying that, Su Yu looked at Lan Tian beside him and asked, "Where did those people go?"

Lan Tian did not answer immediately. Instead, he closed his eyes and, with the help of his clone's eyes, saw the group of experts. At this moment, they were heading towards Tianxing City and were not far from Tianxing Sea.

Lan Tian opened his eyes and said, "They're almost at Tianxing Sea; it'll probably take them another half an hour."

Su Yu nodded. "Then let's set off too."

"By the way, were they all together?"

If the enemy spreads out, they might have to spread out to snipe them as well.

Lan Tian shook his head. "No, the other party seemed very cautious. They were all gathered together, and no one was alone."

"I don't know if they're just naturally cautious or if they've discovered something, but so many of them have gathered together."

Wan Tiansheng smiled and said, "No matter what, the other side just got lucky. Whether it was out of caution or something else, their approach was correct. However... they still underestimated our strength."

Su Yu said noncommittally, "It's normal. After all, the current limit of heaven and earth is the ninth level of the Mountain and Sea Realm. Who would have thought that we could actually borrow the power of heaven and earth?"

"Moreover, I estimate that they don't even know what the power of heaven and earth is. Creators are not found everywhere. At least, there hasn't been a sixth person in this world besides the five of us."

Wan Tiansheng and Lan Tian nodded slightly. Indeed, Su Yu was right; no one could have predicted that they could "cheat."

Therefore, under normal circumstances, given the current world situation, the opponent's hundreds of top experts could sweep across the world.

But there's nothing we can do; the Creators are just that unreasonable.

Immediately afterward, the three of them stopped exchanging words and flew rapidly southward.

······

Nanyue Province.

The location is near Tianxinghai.

More than a hundred people were flying at low altitude. Because they deliberately avoided cities and crowds, few people witnessed such a spectacular scene.

In the common understanding, only beings at the Mountain and Sea Realm or above can walk on air, but there are more than a hundred people here now.

Like I said before, thankfully no one saw it, otherwise they might have fainted from fright.

Of course, there might be some bolder ones who chase after you, shouting that they want to become your apprentice.

The group flew slowly, constantly exchanging information with each other.

"This person is really hard to find!"
