Chapter 624: Chapter 29 Daoist Legion

The oath was sworn, and the divine statue silhouette behind Richard in the Gods’ Dimension began to solidify. Power of Faith surged from Richard’s divine statue, continuously filling the White Wolf Statue.

Soon, the divine statue solidified.

The Young Master, located in the Material World, suddenly sensed a strange power, followed by streams of information accompanied by a Holy Light descending from the sky pouring into his brain.

This was information about Divine Arts, which every world master of the Gods Civilization who converts would receive. Richard hadn’t received it before, purely because he had already learned all this information from Ulysses.

The information contained various Divine Arts, ranging from basic Healing Technique and Purification Skill to advanced Divine Healing Skill and Divine Speech Skill–a complete array of skills.

If one could become familiar with these Divine Arts, the combat power of the converted world master would be greatly enhanced, directly ascending from a native world master to a civilization world master.

The Young Master somewhat confusedly accepted the information. Although he now had a lot of spiritual power, its quality was that of a world master. Accepting this bit of information shouldn’t pose any problem.

Soon, the Holy Light disappeared.

In the Miracle Sect’s Divine lineage, a new deity formally named the White Wolf was added.

“Alright, my White Wolf God. The stage is yours now.” Richard patted the Young Master’s shoulder, his eyes filled with encouragement. “In these days, I have captured many prisoners. They will become your first batch of followers, your first group of priests.”

The Young Master looked somewhat confused.

“Lord, what just happened? I feel my body has undergone a great transformation. There is a power constantly promoting my growth.”

“That is the Power of World Origin,” Richard explained. “Any world would have at least one Forth Level creature as a World Guardian.

Creatures chosen by the world to become World Guardians will receive the Power of World Origin infusion and gain the world’s blessing. But the price is that their strength will rapidly decline once they leave the world. If they stay away from the world for too long, they would suffer backlash from the Power of World Origin.

Your former White Wolf King was once a World Guardian. After being slain by the Mad Immortal, there should logically be another similar figure. Initially, I thought the World Origin hadn’t perceived a threat, so it hadn’t spawned another World Guardian.

But based on your situation, I suspect he took a shortcut by hiding his soul in the bloodline, so it didn’t count as a complete death, which is why the Immortal Country never saw another World Guardian.”

The Young Master felt a bit bewildered but roughly grasped the meaning.

He had now become the White Wolf King.

“I see. Zicheng may not be good with words, but the kindness of the Lord, I shall never forget.”

Watching the Young Master bow to him, Richard waved his hand, indicating that ceremony was unnecessary. Kindness was something Richard never considered a big deal.

“Come with me. Your bloodline has now officially awakened. When you meet those werewolf captives later, you must activate your bloodline. The bloodline of the White Wolf King evolved from the werewolves. As long as you activate it, other werewolves will instinctively feel fear and even reverence towards you.”

Heading to the outskirts of the Floating City, after more than a week of construction, the Floating City Fortress had taken initial shape.

On the fortress’s outer perimeter, goblins had constructed a batch of simple wooden houses for the captives as a prisoner-of-war camp. Apart from daily weakness injections, the goblins didn’t bother with these werewolves.

While werewolves are suitable as laborers, goblin machinery was much more efficient than them. Instead of supervising werewolves at work, it was better to let the machines do the job. Moreover, Miracle Sect’s doctrine was very much against the existence of slave labor.

The days the goblins used to endure were recorded in the religious texts.

Arriving at the prisoner-of-war camp, the Young Master glanced at Richard and then invited Bai to enter the camp with him.

Richard didn’t follow the Young Master inside because he knew the Young Master would definitely succeed. Although various versions of the White Wolf King’s faith emerged in the Immortal Country, it was never severed.

This wasn’t a simple sociological phenomenon but an instinctual reverence werewolves held towards the White Wolf King.

Perhaps in the distant past, wolf packs could only survive under the leadership of the White Wolf King, leaving this instinct in the werewolves’ bloodline even today.

And now, with the reappearance of the White Wolf King, whether in terms of bloodline or world blessing, the Young Master had it all.

Combined with the captives’ own fear and the herding instinct, the Young Master was bound to succeed. Even if he failed, it wouldn’t matter; the Young Master’s body could stand there for those werewolf samurai to slash and still emerge unscathed.

Though the Young Master had not fully matured, the chasm between a world master and a mortal was something no ordinary native could bridge.

“With the White Wolf God, the rest is simple.” Walking along, Richard cheerfully plotted in his mind.

With the White Wolf God, it was like flying a banner. Next, he just needed those samurai to infiltrate the werewolves’ rear continuously, eroding the werewolves’ native advantage.

If all went smoothly, he could largely conquer this world in less than ten years.

By then, he could open a Teleportation Gate and connect the goblin world with this one. Thanks to the goblin’s industrial system, developing this world would soon go on track.

By then, he could build a few more Floating Cities and some small Floating City teams, thereby creating a solid base. Even if sent to the front line upon returning to the Wizard World, his forces would suffice to handle the battlefield.

Richard was pleasantly pondering this when suddenly a vibration from the Crystal Stone Communicator interrupted him. Taking it out, Richard glanced at the channel.

“Zhen Yueying?”

Zhen Yueying was the real name of Miss Zhen. After attending the Family Conference, Miss Zhen did not accompany the Young Master to the Quan family but returned to the Lu Family to continue her work as a physician.

Through Miss Zhen, he was well aware of all internal movements within the Family Alliance.

He and Miss Zhen had an agreement to report intelligence every seven days. But the seven-day mark hadn’t yet arrived–why was Miss Zhen suddenly contacting him now?

Could it be that there was some significant upheaval within the Family Alliance?

“Hello, what’s happening?”

In the Lu Family’s Mountain City, Miss Zhen let out a sigh of relief as she listened to the voice coming through the communicator.

At last, it connected. She couldn’t understand why it hadn’t been working earlier, and she thought the machine might have been broken.

“Lord, there are significant changes within the world. Your recent assassination attempt nearly caused the collapse of the Family Alliance. So, the Seven Immortal Villages have prepared an army of Daoists to launch a counterattack, aiming to stabilize the people’s hearts.”

“An army of Daoists?”

Upon hearing this, Richard’s eyes lit up. The combat power of Daoists far exceeded that of ordinary Samurai. If they were scattered and engaged him in guerrilla warfare, they would indeed be extremely troublesome. But unexpectedly, those fools in the Family Alliance had gathered the Daoists together.

This saved him a lot of effort.

“Alright, I know. Be careful in the rear.”

“Thank you for your concern, Lord. Yue Ying will be cautious.”

After hanging up the communicator, Richard immediately went to the main command room of the Command Tower.

“Everyone, the Werewolves are taking significant action.”

Hearing Richard’s voice, the people in the command center turned their attention to him.

“The Werewolves have prepared an army of Daoists, planning a counterattack to boost their morale. Now, terminate the elite squad’s assassination mission and switch to scouting the Werewolves’ movements.”

The command room fell silent for a moment after hearing Richard’s news, then erupted in cheers.

“These idiots have really helped us tremendously.”

“Who came up with the brilliant idea of concentrating the Daoists?”

“I’ll go notify everyone; this time we’ll devour them all.”

Clap clap clap.

Richard clapped his hands to bring the command room to silence.

“Although this is good news, we must not be complacent. The combat power of Daoists far exceeds that of ordinary Werewolf warriors, and with the addition of the array, defeating them won’t be an easy task.

When making plans, treat them as Civilization Level enemies. Make sure to be thoroughly prepared.”

“Yes, our Lord!” (in unison)

…

Mount Taiqi, an unknown small mountain at the edge of the Wolf Plain.

For tens of thousands of years, this peak had always been the territory of a top-grade family. But since it lacks mineral veins and has no aura of Barbaric Beasts, it has remained deserted for years.

However, today, this peak bustled with activity. Immortal disciples from various families gathered here, making the entire peak look shrouded in mist.

“Silence.”

With a somewhat old yet vigorous voice, the entire mountain instantly fell silent.

The head of the Qing Family, along with the heads of the other six Immortal Villages, descended from the sky and stood at the summit of Mount Taiqi.

As the Alliance Hierarch, the head of the Qing Family spoke, “The reason for gathering you is already known to you. In recent days, the Outer Heaven Demon has been invading our lands, slaughtering our kin. Already, hundreds of family heads have perished at their hands.

We cannot allow such things to continue.

You are the elites of your families, those with Immortal Fate. In the past, Immortals used Dao Techniques to defeat the White Wolf King. I believe those of you who have learned Dao Techniques can definitely overcome those Evil Demons.”

The Daoists on the mountain remained expressionless in response to the Qing Family head’s speech.

Everyone knows how to make speeches, but now that the Seven Immortal Villages want them to stabilize the morale of the armies, they must show some sincerity.

Although they have formed an army, these people are not soldiers.

Seeing the lack of reaction from below, the head of the Qing Family silently cursed in his heart.

“A bunch of scoundrels who won’t move without money.”

But curse as he might, he still had to give what needed to be given.

“Of course, to ensure your smooth participation in the battle, we, the Seven Families, have prepared some Elixirs and Dao Artifacts for you.”

As he spoke, the head of the Qing Family untied the gourd from his waist and tossed it into the air. The gourd then expanded rapidly, becoming as large as a small mountain.

Like a stream, Elixirs and Dao Artifacts poured out from the gourd’s mouth, dispersing into each Daoist’s hands. Upon receiving the Elixirs, the Daoists beamed with joy and bowed toward the mountain peak, saying, “Alliance Hierarch is wise. We will do our utmost to defeat the Outer Heaven Demon.”

No one noticed that on a remote corner of Mount Taiqi, an unrecognized Daoist was quietly planning his next move.

“With such a large operation, it needs to be reported.”

With that, Daoist Xuan Qing silently transformed into mist, flying toward the Floating City.
