Chapter 2314: Voting_1
The council members exchanged glances and sighed, "Vice Chairman, we understand what you're saying, but we must come up with a solution, right?"
Who among them was not aware of the threat posed by abyssal creatures, but the question now was how to deal with them!
Surely they couldn't prevent the Spirit Pagoda from going to the reinforcement in the name of the federation?
Qiangu Qingfeng took a deep breath and said in an icy tone, "I propose activating the God-Slaying Fixed Soul Cannon and keeping the Spirit Pagoda and the abyss locked on at all times!"
"Should an accident occur, we can inflict maximum casualties on the abyssal creatures or the Spirit Pagoda in the shortest time possible!"
By now, he only regretted not agreeing with the proposal of the Battle God Hall's hall master at the time!
If they had used the God-Slaying Fixed Soul Cannon earlier, the number of abyssal creatures would have been greatly reduced, and the situation would never have reached this point!
The council member sitting next to him spoke in a grave voice, "Vice Chairman, aren't you being a bit too targeted at the Spirit Pagoda?"
Even though you've once served as the Vice Tower Master, now you seem intent on punishing the Spirit Pagoda at every turn; it's hard for us to believe there is no personal vendetta involved!
Qiangu Qingfeng was not annoyed but instead said word by word, "Perhaps, but everything I do is for the peace of the continent!"
In his heart, the first thing to eliminate was the abyssal creatures, and the next was the Spirit Pagoda!
The rest of the council members clearly did not find this reason convincing…
"No, I do not agree with activating the God-Slaying Fixed Soul Cannon. Haven't the abyssal creatures failed to breach the defenses yet?"
"That's right, don't forget about the Holy Spirit Cult in the past. They took advantage of the God-Slaying Fixed Soul Cannon being unsealed to steal it and then bombarded Shrek Academy, leading to the fall of the previous Sea God Pavilion Master!"
"I think the Vice Chairman has a point. The Holy Spirit Cult's forces have been totally annihilated in the battle against the Blood God Army, how could they lay their hands on the God-Slaying Fixed Soul Cannon now!"
"That's not necessarily true. The Holy Spirit Cult loves to plant spies within major forces, and we, the federation, are no exception!"
Amidst the widespread discussion, Qiangu Qingfeng slowly stood up…
Looking down at the council members below, he declared, "If we cannot unify our opinions, then let's decide this matter by vote!"
...
When the voting results came out, it was clear that less than half of the council members supported Qiangu Qingfeng's proposal!
He couldn't help but clench his fist, wanting to say something more…
But ultimately, he just let out a sigh and sat back down…
The Chairman, who had the greatest authority, glanced at him and said, "Vice Chairman, it seems not many council members support your proposal!"
Qiangu Qingfeng just silently watched, saying nothing…
Then, the former looked towards the other council members, "That's it for today's meeting. You may leave now. I have something to discuss with the Chairman in private!"
Immediately, the council members quickly got up and left…
Only then did the Chairman turn to Qiangu Qingfeng, saying seriously, "Vice Chairman, now it's just the two of us!"
The latter was momentarily stunned, "Chairman, do you have some questions?"
The purpose of leaving him alone was already quite clear!
The former did not deny it and nodded, "Yes, after returning to the federation, Vice Chairman, you have always said that the Spirit Pagoda has a huge conspiracy, but what exactly is this conspiracy?"
Qiangu Qingfeng fell silent…
A few seconds later, he spoke in a very wary tone, "I cannot be certain… however, it's very likely that they are trying to resurrect extinct soul beasts!"
The pupils of the Chairman constricted, shocked, "Resurrect soul beasts? Has the Spirit Pagoda's technology advanced to this extent?"
The federation had always been at the forefront in terms of technology, with no one able to catch up, but Qiangu Qingfeng's words completely shattered his understanding!
Qiangu Qingfeng closed his eyes, clearly having no desire to continue…
"I can only say that if the Spirit Pagoda is allowed to develop unchecked, it will bring disaster to humanity!"
…
At this moment, Tang Wulin, who was continuously dodging the spiritual impacts released by the Spirit Emperor, felt an intense dizziness wash over his mind…
"No good, I've overused my spiritual power, my sea of consciousness can't hold on much longer!!"
The Spirit Emperor opposite him naturally noticed his unusual state, and the spiritual impacts he released became even more intense…
He said with a slightly crazed tone, "Human, stop struggling, your spiritual power must have reached its limit, right?"
Tang Wulin, with nowhere to retreat, could only staunchly dodge…
But faced with such dense spiritual impacts, he was ultimately unable to emerge unscathed…
A "buzz" sounded as an invisible spiritual impact struck directly at his head…
"Aaaaahhhhhhh!!"
In an instant, his whole sea of consciousness felt as if it were being torn apart, the intense pain making his soul scream…
The scene before his eyes began to disintegrate and was gradually engulfed by boundless darkness…
But before he was completely submerged, a faint divine thought quietly arose, "Wulin, steady your heart!"
Hearing this voice, Tang Wulin, who had already given up struggling, glared with wide eyes and bit down on the flesh of his own lip…
He hadn't yet seen his father and mother; how could he die here!!
Intense desire to survive caused the Sea God's Trident to bloom with a gentle radiance, illuminating every part of his body…
Every injury sustained by his body and spirit began to heal at a terrifying speed…
The Spirit Emperor, seeing this, shouted furiously, "Damn it, not this again!!"
It almost managed to finish off this brat last time; this mysterious power had appeared yet again!
This time, he would twist off his head with his own hands and see if this guy could still live!
Having said that, he transformed into Gui Mei and charged straight at Tang Wulin…
But the Sea God's Trident seemed to sense its presence and once again erupted with a shock wave, forcefully repelling it dozens of meters away…
Having fully borne the brunt of this power, the Spirit Emperor spat out purple-black blood with a "puh"…
Then, he looked towards the Sea God's Trident with a gaze filled with terror, "That's divine power, the one helping this kid is a God from the Upper Realm! Damn it, weren't the Divine Realm and the Lower Realm completely separated?"
Bathed in the light of the Sea God, Tang Wulin, who had recovered most of his injuries, took a deep breath before reopening his eyes...
Looking at the Sea God's Trident flickering with entirely different powers, he murmured, "Father, have you been watching over me all this time?"
The Sea God's Trident rose into the air, returning to the palm of his hand…
His eyes rekindled with a fighting spirit, "Spirit Emperor, the real battle starts now!"
Although he didn't know what his father did to the Sea God's Trident, he clearly understood…
As long as he was within the range illuminated by the Sea God's Light, the Spirit Emperor's spiritual impacts would be greatly weakened!
Just this alone was enough!!
