Chapter 2840: Seeing Through the Truth_1

Di Tian looked sideways at Gu Yuena with puzzlement and said, "Master, wouldn't it be more convenient to kill this person? Why bother sending him to the Ten Thousand Beast Platform?"

Such an insignificant creature, even if kept alive, is of no use and might even leak our plans!

The expression in Gu Yuena's eyes didn't waver as she said word by word, "It's simple, because my aim is not only to revitalize the Soul Beast Clan but also to create a world where soul beasts and humans live in harmony."

"Even though he has overheard our plans, he doesn't deserve to die!"

She paused for a moment and then continued, "Di Tian, you and the other ferocious beasts should also restrain your beastly nature. Otherwise, how are we any different from the humans of the past?"

Di Tian pondered for several seconds before nodding and responding, "I understand. Since this is the Master's wish, I will try to contain my hostility towards humans as much as possible!"

Of course, this excluded the humans who were enemies of the Spirit Pagoda!!

Gu Yuena didn't know if this was a sincere promise, she just responded softly with a "Hmm"...

"Then, you and the other ferocious beasts continue to maintain order within the Spirit Pagoda. I will first..."

She hadn't finished her sentence when Di Tian interrupted her, "Master, please wait a moment!"

Gu Yuena was taken aback, "Di Tian, is there a problem?"

Di Tian's gaze turned grave as he echoed, "Yes, just yesterday, the Spirit Pagoda Members we sent out seem to have discovered some traces of the federation!"

Gu Yuena crossed her arms, signaling him to continue...

Di Tian spoke again, "According to what they've reported, although these federation squads left at different times, their direction of travel seems to be towards the south!"

"And to the south, the only place worth noting is the abyssal plane!"

Gu Yuena expressed astonishment, "The abyssal plane??"

She truly had not considered that place!

Due to the disappearance of the Abyssal Emperor and the fall of other Abyssal Emperors, the abyssal plane no longer had any strong presences. It was entirely filled with abyssal creatures who had just developed sentience!

These abyssal creatures could be easily wiped out, posing no threat to the Continent whatsoever!

But it's precisely because of this that the federation had suddenly dispatched so many members to the abyssal plane, which indeed was very strange!

Di Tian took a deep breath and inquired, "Master, I remember you have entered the abyssal plane before. Is there something inside that the federation would value?"

Facing this question, Gu Yuena pondered carefully and shook her head, "No, apart from the abyssal creatures, there is almost nothing of interest in the abyssal plane!"

Di Tian's golden pupils flickered as he continued with a hint of doubt in his tone, "If there is nothing of interest, why would the federation expend so much effort on the abyssal plane?"

"Could it also be to distract us?"

If that were the case, there would be no need to waste further time on this matter!

Gu Yuena, without a single clue, quietly let her gaze sweep over the ground...

Suddenly, a peculiar idea popped into her mind...

"Wait... wait a moment, apart from the abyssal creatures, there seems to be one more place in the abyssal plane that is worth noting!"

Seeing her reaction, Di Tian urgently asked, "Master, where is that?"

Gu Yuena didn't hold back and immediately uttered two words, "Resources!"

Di Tian's pupils contracted in surprise, "Resources??"

Gu Yuena nodded in affirmation, "That's right, resources. Abyssal creatures have occupied the abyssal plane for who knows how many years, and any humans entering it have always been attacked!"

"So, during this period, not a single power can exploit the rare resources within the abyssal plane!"

"Now that the Abyssal Emperors and Abyssal Kings are gone, those weak abyssal creatures are completely incapable of resisting the federation!"

After hearing the previous conjecture, Di Tian once again spoke in a puzzled tone, "But what is the point for the federation to exploit the rare resources in the abyssal plane at this critical time?"

"These rare resources can't help the federation defeat us!"

Gu Yuena's Beautiful Eyes revealed a chill as she coldly said, "Di Tian, do you really think these rare resources are meaningless?"

At this moment, she finally understood why the federation had gone to such great lengths to distract the attention of the Spirit Pagoda!

The real purpose turned out to be so shocking!

This statement directly awakened Di Tian...

His eyes widened in alarm as he exclaimed, "The federation... the federation plans to use the rare resources developed from the abyssal plane to create a fourth God-killing soul-guided missile!!!"

"And then, launch a bombardment on the unsuspecting Spirit Pagoda!"

This would be enough to dissolve the number advantage of Soul Masters in the Spirit Pagoda!

Gu Yuena pursed her lips, "Exactly, that's the real purpose of the federation!"

"Actually, I should have thought of it earlier. The God-killing soul-guided missile is the only method they have to defeat the Spirit Pagoda!"

Di Tian clenched his fists, filled with murderous intent, "Damn federation, we absolutely cannot let them succeed. I will lead some of the Spirit Pagoda Members to stop them!"

If it weren't for the fact that the master saw through the federation's plan, the Spirit Pagoda wouldn't even know how it was destroyed until death!

Gu Yuena shook her head, reminding him, "Di Tian, it's already too late. Since we were able to get this message, it proves that the plan has been in action for a long time!"

"The federation must have completed the initial exploitation of the abyssal plane and begun to construct the fourth God-killing soul-guided missile!"

Di Tian gnashed his teeth, "Master, what should we do then? If we let the federation finish the construction, everything is over!"

He could not accept such defeat!

Seeing his emotions about to spiral out of control, Gu Yuena soothed, "Di Tian, calm down. The federation definitely needs a long time to manufacture a God-killing soul-guided missile, we still have a chance to stop it!"

After hearing these words, Di Tian finally calmed down a bit...

"Master, are you suggesting that, just like last time, we should let the Spirit Pagoda Members who are in hiding within the federation secretly destroy the God-killing soul-guided missile?"

Gu Yuena decisively rejected the idea, "The federation has already been tricked once. The protective measures for the God-killing soul-guided missile will only be more thorough; this method might not work!"

Furthermore, most of the Spirit Pagoda Members undercover in the federation had been exposed during the last operation!

Those left are merely minor soldiers and underlings!

"To prevent the federation from creating the fourth God-killing soul-guided missile, we need a more meticulous plan!"

"But before that, Di Tian, you, on behalf of the Spirit Pagoda, should seek help from the Tang Sect. As long as we can be protected by the Super Condensed Soul Guidance Defensive Array System, the God-killing soul-guided missile won't matter!"

Although there's a high probability of refusal, it doesn't hurt to try!
