Chapter 833: Cautious and Careful

Having drained the luck of the leader of the Time Tribe and the elders until only a thread remained, Yi Chen did not waste any more time.

He immediately used the Teleportation Technique to leave the Large Battleship where the leader of the Time Tribe and the elders were located.

Then, he continuously teleported outward.

After distancing himself from this large army, he retrieved another Large Battleship from the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

The Large Battleship set off towards the army controlled by the Reincarnation Tribe.

One day, two days, three days…

After more than half a month, when the coalition was two-thirds of the way to the Golden Cloud Star Cluster, Yi Chen successfully found the army controlled by the Reincarnation Tribe.

Similar to how he searched for the hiding place of the leader of the Time Tribe and the elders, Yi Chen maximized his divine consciousness and began entering various defensive barriers with strong defense.

When encountering the leaders and elders of various tribes, he readily drained their luck.

This cycle continued; searching through defensive barriers consumed about two days before Yi Chen successfully located the hiding place of the leader of the Reincarnation Tribe and the elders.

In less than half an hour, he drained the luck of the leader of the Reincarnation Tribe and over a hundred Reincarnation Tribe elders down to just a thread.

Once completed, Yi Chen swiftly distanced himself from the army controlled by the Reincarnation Tribe and retrieved another Large Battleship from the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

He set off towards the final army, which was controlled and commanded by the Tree-Dwelling Tribe.

Everything went smoothly again.

After half a month, he successfully arrived at his destination.

In just about a day, he drained the luck of over sixty leaders and elders of large races and smoothly found the Chief of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe and the elders.

In less than twenty minutes, he effortlessly reduced the luck of the Chief of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe and the elders to just a thread.

Yi Chen began his journey back home.

By the time he returned to the Golden Cloud Star Cluster, it had already been over two months in total.

The harvest was immense.

He not only successfully gathered a vast amount of luck but, as expected, had also drained the luck of the leaders and elders of the three races down to a thread.

This meant that when the leaders and elders of the three races gathered together, he only needed to make one more move.

Without luck, the leaders and elders could potentially suffer significant casualties in the near future due to various reasons and conflicts, even if Yi Chen did nothing.

Once Yi Chen decided to take action, it would be extraordinarily easy for him to eliminate them.

Aside from this, during these two months, he had spent most of his time aboard the Large Battleship.

His strength realm had risen from level 241 to level 242, significantly increasing.

Only half a month remained until the coalition reached the Golden Cloud Star Cluster.

Yi Chen focused on cultivating, waiting for the great battle to come.

Meanwhile, the Great Flame Empire’s Military was not idle.

Over two hundred million human soldiers and trillions of soldiers from various tribes began their march towards the border of the Golden Cloud Star Cluster.

The number of this army, though incomparable to the coalition of over one trillion troops, was still imposing and terrifying.

On the side of the eastern human army, confidence ran high.

Every soldier was eager and ready, looking forward to a swift battle with the elite army of the coalition, eager to show all the large races in the super star cluster the strength of the human army.

In contrast, the various tribes’ army was low in spirits, anxious and uneasy.

After all, this was an army formed by the three dominant races joining forces.

Almost all the large races in the super star cluster participated.

Not only were their numbers thousands of times greater, but their average cultivation level was also significantly higher.

If a battle broke out, one could easily guess the outcome.

They all hoped that this war would break out as late as possible.

Of course, the best scenario would be for it not to break out at all.

For some reason, the coalition suddenly announced a retreat.

Or perhaps, the high-ranking officials of the Great Flame Empire could not withstand the pressure and chose to surrender.

Over three trillion troops felt discouraged.

However, the Senior Military Officials of the Great Flame Empire did not pay much attention.

After all, this army of over three trillion was merely for show.

The real main force of this battle was the more than two hundred million human troops.

The over three trillion army’s greatest purpose was to ensure that the Great Flame Empire had enough strength to control and manage them after the coalition’s surrender.

……

As days passed, the three paths of the coalition finally arrived at the edge of the Golden Cloud Star Cluster using their Large Battleships.

As per the planned schedule, upon reaching the edge of the Golden Cloud Star Cluster, the three paths of the coalition began to spread out, completely surrounding the entire Golden Cloud Star Cluster.

Dense and overwhelming armies formed an enormous elliptical sphere, enveloping the vast expanse of the Golden Cloud Star Cluster.

It was almost certain that within the teleportation range of the Large Battleships, there would always be a contingent of troops present.

The leaders and high-ranking officials of the three dominant races and the large races, aside from leaving some troops behind for command, began heading to the agreed command center.

One hour later, the leaders of the three dominant races and over three thousand large races gathered together.

Among them was also Lu Qingxian, the chairman of the human federation.

“According to the latest intelligence, the Great Flame Empire has mobilized hundreds of billions of troops from various races, actively marching towards us.”

The leader of the Time Tribe spoke, “From the looks of it, they seem determined to fight us. The human army has nearly two hundred million, almost all of the Great Flame Empire’s human army.”

“Holding such hundreds of billions of troops also represents over seventy percent of the elite forces that can be mobilized from the various races in the Golden Cloud Star Cluster. Although their overall cultivation level is slightly lower, it isn’t by much.”

“According to our original plan, if the Great Flame Empire gathers their troops, we naturally should assemble part of our army to fight them.”

A leader of a large race expressed confusion.

“The initial plan was indeed like this. However, the Great Flame Empire army knows that our top-tier combat power and elite army far exceed theirs, yet they still choose to confront us in this manner, which seems a bit strange.”

The leader of the Time Tribe shook his head slightly.

The gazes of the large race leaders turned toward the Chief of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe and the leader of the Reincarnation Tribe.

What surprised them was that the Chief of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe and the leader of the Reincarnation Tribe showed no signs of opposition.

In fact, after pondering for a moment, the Chief of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe agreed, “Based on the past style of the Great Flame Empire, whenever they take action, they are almost always certain of success and possess absolute confidence.”

The leader of the Reincarnation Tribe nodded in agreement, saying, “Indeed, since the Great Flame Empire has assembled their troops and is proactively advancing, a battle is inevitable. As for how to fight, we need to deliberate and plan thoroughly to ensure it’s foolproof.”

The large race leaders were dumbfounded.

They did not expect that despite having absolute advantages in top-tier combat power and elite forces, the leaders of the three dominant races would be so cautious.

Little did they know, their frequent past losses and strong psychological shadows led them to be overly suspicious, remaining anxious even when holding clear advantages.
