#3552 - Fenghuoshan quietly moves (I)
Only by incorporating the territories of these Grade A forces around us can we most quickly expand the territory of the Hongmeng Faction...
The Divine Race Continent is only so large.
Even if the area is vast, I still need to occupy more territory before the end of the beast tide.
Without territory, the development of the faction will inevitably encounter its limit.
At that time, wanting to stir up trouble against these Chaos Divine Races and Ferocious Beast Races on the Divine Race Continent,
or even wanting to establish a tripartite balance of power, would be wishful thinking.
The surrounding leaders of various forces near the Hongmeng Faction were startled when they saw the other side's army mobilizing, appearing ready to continue expanding its territory...
They had just been confidently asserting that the Hongmeng Faction would not attack them so early, but now they were ruthlessly slapped in the face.
"Damn, are these guys from the Hongmeng Faction crazy? It's not enough for them to deal with Phoenix Volcano, they've actually diverted some of their forces to deal with us. We're just Grade A forces, not a Saint-Grade force like Phoenix Volcano. How can we deserve this kind of treatment, facing an army that can suppress a Saint-Grade force?"
"It's already this late, why are you still talking nonsense? Quickly think about how to escape. If we can't escape, we're all going to be buried here. The Hongmeng Faction is getting more and more terrifying. They didn't even use their full strength against Phoenix Volcano, they were even deliberately playing with those guys from Phoenix Volcano."
"If the higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano knew about this operation of the Hongmeng Faction, they'd probably feel insulted. Maybe in a fit of anger, they'd launch an even stronger offensive against the Hongmeng Faction, which would alleviate the pressure on us here, allowing us to quickly escape the encirclement of the Hongmeng army."
"If this were many years ago, I might have had this idea too, but I don't think so now. Those guys from Phoenix Volcano probably don't have the courage to intensify their fight with the Hongmeng Faction anymore. They've been completely controlled and can barely protect themselves. Where would they find the energy to be angry?"...
The news that the Hongmeng Faction was continuing to expand its territory reached the ears of the higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano.
These higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano only felt powerless in their hearts.
Anger? It didn't exist at all!
When the gap is so large that you recognize your own shortcomings,
all that remains is powerlessness.
Only when the gap is small will anger arise.
Half a month passed.
The battle at Phoenix Volcano continued.
The Hongmeng Faction's new round of expansion had already been completed.
During this expansion, Qin Yi personally killed fifteen Da Luo Golden Immortals.
After these Da Luo Golden Immortals fell, he threw their remains into the system store for recycling.
[Ding! Item value calculating...]
[Calculation complete, total value: 12 billion Divine and Demonic Points.]
Including these Divine and Demonic Points, Qin Yi now has a total of 28 billion Divine and Demonic Points.
Qin Yi was quite satisfied with his harvest this time.
If there was anything to complain about, it was probably the inaction of these Phoenix Volcano guys.
He had originally thought that after firmly controlling the battlefield, these Phoenix Volcano guys would have various follow-up actions.
Never would he have expected... that they wouldn't even have the intention of stirring up trouble.
This made Qin Yi feel a little disappointed.
If the Phoenix Volcano Quasi-Saint couldn't help but take action at this time, it would be perfect to eliminate the hidden danger.
Qin Yi didn't want a Quasi-Saint to be watching him secretly.
If one day the other party felt uncomfortable...
and really did something to the Hongmeng Faction,
the losses would be enormous!
The outside world's reaction to the Hongmeng Faction's territorial expansion was more fear than anger.
Especially those faction leaders who had narrowly escaped death.
Many of them kept silent about this matter.
These faction leaders knew very well how they had survived.
It was all thanks to the Hongmeng Faction letting them off.
If the Hongmeng Faction hadn't let them off, they would definitely have fallen.
"Damn it, if possible, I wouldn't want to face the Hongmeng Faction head-on. This isn't the foundation and combat power that a Grade A force should have. I, a dignified Five Tribulation Da Luo Golden Immortal, am actually no match for the Qin Emperor of the Hongmeng Faction. Even if I could withstand a few rounds before losing, I'd feel a little better."
"Why don't you look in the mirror? You're still talking about resisting the Qin Emperor for a few rounds. If the Qin Emperor couldn't even seriously injure you with one move, he wouldn't have fought Phoenix Volcano until now, and even completely suppressed them. It can only be said that this Qin Emperor is unfathomable and can't be fought head-on."
"If we're really talking about this matter, we should thank the Qin Emperor of Hongmeng. If it weren't for the Qin Emperor letting us off this time, perhaps none of us would have survived. Compared to those unlucky guys who fell into the hands of the Qin Emperor, we who were only seriously injured and narrowly escaped with our lives should be even more grateful to the Qin Emperor."
"Damn it, are you out of your mind? The Qin Emperor harmed us so badly, and you're saying we should thank him! If we're really talking about this matter, how could we have been seriously injured if the Qin Emperor hadn't stirred up trouble? Maybe he didn't kill me just because he didn't bother to deal with us. Don't expect me to think of him fondly."
......
There were also some faction leaders who blamed Phoenix Volcano for the Hongmeng army's territorial expansion.
When the higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano heard this news, they were immediately dumbfounded.
They really wanted to ask these guys what they were thinking.
This matter was clearly done by the Hongmeng Faction, what does it have to do with them!
After understanding the reason for all this, the higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano were furious.
Don't think that they were submissive in front of the Hongmeng Faction, that's because they really couldn't beat the other side.
But when it came to these Grade A faction leaders, the higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano would definitely strike hard.
These Grade A faction leaders were blaming them, Phoenix Volcano, for not fully engaging the Hongmeng Faction's energy as a Saint-Grade force!
This led to these Grade A forces suffering an undeserved disaster!
Then these higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano would let the many Grade A faction leaders who complained understand what an undeserved disaster is.
Soon, the higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano launched a purge of the surrounding Grade A forces.
These faction leaders who had just narrowly escaped death never expected to escape the Hongmeng Faction's territorial expansion.
But they didn't escape these bullying and cowardly lunatics from Phoenix Volcano!
Everyone felt extremely bitter in their hearts!
Complaints against Phoenix Volcano reached a peak for a time.
"I suddenly feel that these guys from Phoenix Volcano are really funny. They clearly can't beat the Hongmeng Faction, but they want to take it out on us! What does Phoenix Volcano, as a Saint-Grade force, see us as? Are we soft persimmons that they can knead as they please? I say this matter can't just pass like this."
"I support you saying this matter can't just pass like this, but the key is how to do it. We can't just talk big, we can't beat the Hongmeng Faction, and we can't possibly be a match for the Saint-Grade force Phoenix Volcano. We're like ants in front of these two forces, simply insignificant."
"I say let's just close one eye and let this matter pass. What can't be passed? We can't bring a disaster upon ourselves just because of the anger in our hearts. It would be too foolish to do so. We must not joke with our lives."

"No one would joke with their own lives. The main thing is that these guys from Phoenix Volcano are too much. It's one thing for the Hongmeng Faction, as outsiders, to attack us, but these guys from Phoenix Volcano are Ferocious Beast Races, and they're attacking us, their own kind, just because we complained behind their backs."
...
At the same time, the higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano were also discussing how to use insidious tricks to counterattack the Hongmeng Faction.
They had already been firmly controlled by the other side on the surface.
If they wanted to counterattack, they could only resort to insidious tricks...
These insidious tricks wouldn't necessarily cause heavy losses to the Hongmeng Faction.
But at the very least, they had to make the other side feel humiliated.
They couldn't allow the Hongmeng Faction to continue developing so smoothly.
Otherwise, everything would really be unimaginable.
As a Saint-Grade force, the higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano had never thought that one day they would be swallowed up by the Hongmeng Faction.
They knew very well in their hearts.
If they couldn't change the situation as soon as possible, then being swallowed up by the Hongmeng Faction was only a matter of time.
Fortunately, Phoenix Volcano still had its last trump card, which was Quasi-Saint-level combat power!
The Quasi-Saint-level combat power would never be used lightly unless absolutely necessary.
After all, if the Quasi-Saint-level combat power needed to be mobilized, Phoenix Volcano would have entered a critical moment of survival.
Who knew if mobilizing their Quasi-Saint-level combat power would trigger a series of unnecessary reactions.
For example... the hidden top-level combat power of the Hongmeng Faction.
Whether it was that Qin Emperor or the City Lord of Sophie, they were both unfathomable.
For such an unfathomable enemy, they would definitely not use the simple and crude method of Quasi-Saint combat power if they could change the situation with gentler means.
This simple and crude method was very useful for dealing with other Grade A forces.
But the higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano had no confidence when it came to the Hongmeng Faction.
"Everyone, I suggest that we directly send people to sneak into the territory of the Hongmeng Faction. At that time, while taking the opportunity to gather intelligence, we can carry out assassination missions against relatively important core members of the Hongmeng Faction. For example, Wang Tian and Emily. As long as we kill either of them, our pressure will be greatly reduced."
"As far as I know, Wang Tian and Emily are the right-hand men of that Qin Emperor of Hongmeng. As long as one of them falls, the Qin Emperor may not have so much energy to deal with us. After all, judging from our intelligence, the Qin Emperor's subordinates are very limited. So I think this plan will definitely have an effect if implemented successfully."
"Have you ever thought about one thing? If we really do this, the Qin Emperor will definitely ignite his anger. At that time, does our Phoenix Volcano really have the confidence to withstand the anger of that Qin Emperor of Hongmeng? The guys who have provoked the anger of the Qin Emperor of Hongmeng for so many years have basically fallen. I don't think we have the qualifications."
"Our Phoenix Volcano is a Saint-Grade force, when did we need to be so submissive in the face of a Grade A force leader? What do you mean we can't withstand the Qin Emperor's anger? If that Qin Emperor really had the ability, he wouldn't have fought our Phoenix Volcano until now. I'm afraid he would have already thought of a way to destroy us."
......
After some discussion.
The assassination plan against Wang Tian and Emily of the Hongmeng Faction was finalized.
It wasn't that the higher-ups of Phoenix Volcano weren't worried about the Qin Emperor of Hongmeng's revenge.
But things had already developed to this point, even if there was revenge, it was a matter for the future.
The top priority now was to find a way to win back a city first.
As long as they could win back a city, it would be a good start.
Dampening the Hongmeng Faction's spirit, it might be easier to target the Hongmeng Faction in the future.
A Six Tribulation Da Luo Golden Immortal from Phoenix Volcano was sent to the Hongmeng Faction.
That night.
Qin Yi slowly opened his eyes. He stood up and looked at the location of the Six Tribulation Da Luo Golden Immortal from Phoenix Volcano and laughed out loud.
These guys from Phoenix Volcano really didn't know what to say.
To say they were stupid... they didn't seem very stupid!
The key was that they sent a Six Tribulation Da Luo Golden Immortal to stir up trouble, which made Qin Yi very embarrassed.
If he was stronger than a Six Tribulation Da Luo Golden Immortal, Qin Yi could rightfully call on Sophie to take action.
And he would rightfully become a spectator.
Unfortunately, this guy... directly stuck at the edge of his limit combat power.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Yi decided to quickly resolve the battle and directly kill this guy.
Regardless of what mission this guy was here to carry out or what purpose he had.
Coming to the Hongmeng Faction's territory so blatantly, he certainly wasn't here to do anything good.
Nipping danger in the bud had always been Qin Yi's philosophy.
Discovering danger and not dealing with it in time was called stupidity.
Qin Yi opened the system store and began to exchange for pills to increase his combat power.
[Ninety-First Order · Legend Hundred Kill Pill · Full: The user gains one hundred and five times of full physical recovery, and at the same time, all attributes are increased by 3,000% until the end of the battle. Value: 2.5 billion Divine and Demonic System Store Points.]
(Warm reminder: This is an advanced version of the [Ninety-First Order · Legend Hundred Kill Pill], no need to accumulate, kill the number of people, take it to get the full effect of the Hundred Kill Pill!)
[Ninety-First Order · Legend Ten Strike Pill: The user can burst out 500% of combat power in the next ten attacks, and there are no side effects. Price: 2.5 billion Divine and Demonic System Store Points.]
He spent 5 billion Divine and Demonic Points to exchange for these two pills.
The system store's Divine and Demonic Point balance became 23 billion points.
Looking at the cost he paid for this exchange to increase his combat power.
Qin Yi looked at the Six Tribulation Da Luo Golden Immortal from Phoenix Volcano and thought:
"I hope I can get my money back from you..."
If he didn't get his money back from this Six Tribulation Da Luo Golden Immortal, Qin Yi would definitely have a mental breakdown.
The next second, Qin Yi's figure appeared in front of this Rank Six Great Encompassing Golden Immortal.
His powerful aura instantly enveloped the entire Primordial Force region.
This Rank Six Great Encompassing Golden Immortal was dumbfounded when he saw Qin Yi appear before him.
He had only just secretly sneaked in and hadn't done anything yet.
How could he have been discovered already... wasn't this a bit too much?
"Qin Emperor, how did you discover me?"
Facing the legendary Primordial Qin Emperor, this Rank Six Great Encompassing Golden Immortal from Phoenix Volcano felt his heart turn to ashes.
He definitely couldn't win against the other party.
He was very clear about the Primordial Qin Emperor's strength, it was simply not something he could deal with.
Qin Yi's extremely calm voice entered his ears: "Isn't discovering you very simple?"
