1065 First Planar War (I)

"I am," said Ao Shen, who immediately stepped forward. He did not hide the killing intent in his eyes. When he was in the Martial Hegemony World, those bastard martial artists hunted him relentlessly, especially the people from the Rising Dragon Sect. They wanted to use his blood, body, and soul to cultivate their Dragon Subduing Scripture to a level on par with their ancestors. Now that he had a chance at revenge, he would not hesitate.

"Are you sure?" asked Wang Wei. From his knowledge, Ao Shen should still be in the process of refining his artifact and focusing on increasing his strength.

"I am."

Wang Wei secretly groaned. He did not want the demon race to be the vanguard of this war, as a tiny part of him still wanted to convince the Martial Hegemony World to surrender after seeing how pointless it was to fight. Adding demon and human relationship to the situation might complicate things.

However, after thinking about it for a while, he realized such thinking was pointless. This war is an issue of worlds against worlds, not the human race against other races.

"Very well. Who else?"

"I will also participate," said Huo Fenghuang, offering her services. This war was the first step in their Ancient Clan's revival, so she wanted to go out and get as many benefits as possible. In the future, after other world communities see it's impossible to stop their expansion, many worlds will not resist, and the Heavenly Emperor is prone to using diplomatic means instead of war. As such, Huo Fenghuang plans to participate in all the wars to benefit.

"Excellent. What about you two?" Wang Wei looked at Feng Heng and Xu Shi. "The more the merrier. I want this war to end as soon as possible."

"My apologies, but with my relationship with the Martial Hegemony World, it's best that I don't participate," replied Xu Shi, who cupped her hands and bowed. She would also prevent the Academy from sending their legions and people if it were up to her. However, she understood the benefits of this war, so she did not stop them.

"This poor monk will not participate personally, but I will send sect members to partake and assist," replied Feng Heng while playing with his prayer beads. His focus was now on this new branch of Buddhism, so he had no time for war despite the obvious benefits. Honestly speaking, he was against participating in this war since he did not want his monks to have too much karma. Sadly, he knew he would receive criticism if he did not send people; some would accuse him of preserving strength and making a big deal of the situation. Lastly, many sect members do not want to give up the benefits.

"That's fine," nodded Wang Wei before looking at the two Immortal Sovereigns. "What about you?"

"The Sea Race will send people, but I will not participate."

This fact slipped the minds of many people. So now, they realize how little time they have. A few wiser representatives looked at the Heavenly Emperor, hoping he would do something about this issue. However, Wang Wei remained the same, taking the position that he would not interfere unless absolutely necessary. Many people felt relieved by this fact since his presence would mean the job would be done instantly, leaving nothing for them.

Tie Gang took his position back in the assembly, and Wang Wei continued the meeting, "All professionals of Earth Rank will meet in the Dream World. You will work with the Cauldrons to refine materials for this war."

'Will the Dream World have new functions?' thought Xu Shi, and she was not the only person who noticed this slip of information.

"The resources used in this war will not be counted as military merit, but someone will record the amount, and everyone will be reimbursed afterward," continued Wang Wei. "I believe this is it for now unless someone has any questions or concerns?"

No one had any questions since everything was straightforward or already explained. So, Wang Wei waved his hand to send them the information from Daoist Evergreen about how to treat the natives once this world is conquered.

"A few parting words," said Wang Wei. "This war will be our official return to the Endless Void after too long. We cannot fail, especially due to in-fighting. Am I understood?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Wang Wei dismissed everybody while waiting for things to be set in place. He had many objectives for this war, including gathering enough data about the Interplanar War and adding it to the Battle Tower. Then, everybody can stimulate other wars to be as fast and efficient as possible in the other expansions. So, he was prepared to use different tactics and even hoped the Martial Hegemony World would put up more of a fight so he could collect more data.

Soon after the meeting's end, countless military strategists arrived in the court to participate in the War Room. A formation that would broadcast a live feed of the war had already been established. The professionals had also organized and began working. The cauldrons were activated to the highest level. Since they contained a large world inside, they could refine more than one pill at a time.

Each profession chose an Insurgent Tier Powerhouse as their manager to ensure high productivity.

The whole world entered a state of mobilization, and that includes mortals. They wanted to participate in lower-tier battles (Tier 1-4), and many people began to voice their opinions in the Dream World, hoping the Heavenly Emperor would hear them.

The Mortal Craft and Art Dao clans remained quiet since they could not participate in this fight. Their world was essentially invading another, so they could not use their power from the temple in such an act of aggression. As such, they can only remain quiet on the sideline. Of course, not everyone remained quiet.

Many scholars or philosophers condemned this invasion, writing poems, articles, essays, and books condemning the Heavenly Emperor's actions. Wang Wei noticed them as there were many small-scale visions from these written words.

These people reminded him of Confuciunists from Earth who would condemn the Emperor for his actions, forcing the latter to kill them. Their purpose is to leave a name in history and ruin the reputation of the Emperor for all eternity.

These families had the same mindset but did not realize he could wipe them out of history so that no one would ever remember them. Ultimately, Wang Wei just ignored them as their actions had no effect.
