'These are indeed Source Crystals!'

Fang Yuan flipped his hands and kept the crystals safely.

These two Source Crystals were neither too big nor too small. However, if it were to be used, it could transform a normal human being with no cultivation to a 6th Tier Illusionary Divine dream master.

Such energy would still be useful to even a 7th Tier Illusionary Divine dream master.

"Thank you head! I have a few pieces of intelligence with me which I am willing to share with you."

Fang Yuan smiled as he unreservedly revealed everything he had heard from the higher-ups of the 5 Grand Organisations.

After all, he did not believe that the Imperial Court would not plant spies within the 5 Grand Organisations. After all, the pieces of information which he was providing were not crucial and more importantly, he could gain the trust of the Head.

"That's great!"

Indeed, after listening to Fang Yuan, the Head of Hidden Dragon Guards felt appreciative. "Since you are unwilling to join the Hidden Dragon Guards, you can remain as our Guest Minister. Now is the perfect time for the Imperial Court to strike back... You are in a favourable position within the core team of the 5 Grand Organisations. I have a few missions in mind and you seem to be the best candidate for these missions."

"Please enlighten me!"

Fang Yuan's expression changed. "Considering the fact that I want to wipe out the Source Seeking Sect, I believe that the both of us have the basis and foundation to work together."

"You are indeed the disciple of Master Heartless to have the determination to wipe out the Source Seeking Sect, huh?"

The Head of the Hidden Dragon Guards gazed at Fang Yuan and his smile became wider before he started to laugh hysterically. "Great! This is great! We can work together to wipe out Source Seeking Sect as soon as this war is over!"

...

As soon as Fang Yuan returned to the military base, he could feel that the atmosphere was different.

"Lord Fang Yuan!"

Before his designated tentage, a dream master from the Realm Alliance seemed to have waited for him for a long time. "The Sage and a few other elders have arrived!"

"Sage?"

Fang Yuan was shocked. "The Sage of the Realm Alliance have arrived? How many elders have come over?"

"Just now, Alliance Leader, Lord Demon Killing Divine Pen and a few elders have arrived." The reporting dream master seemed to be in his forties and his submissive look made it obvious that he was full of admiration to the Sage and the few other elders.

"Bring me there!"

Fang Yuan took in a deep breath as he followed the dream master to a huge tent in the centre of the military base.

"Fang Yuan requests to see the Sage!"

He bowed slightly towards the tent.

"Come in!"

A loud voice was heard in his spiritual will.

Fang Yuan opened the flaps of the tent and in that instant, he was being transported to another world.

The sun and the moon were high up in the sky. Grass filled the ground and flowers were in full bloom.

"A hollow? No wonder I cannot detect anything from outside!"

Fang Yuan immediately took a deep bow. "Greetings, Sage!"

"Very well, please rise!"

A loud voice commanded and Fang Yuan rose. Quickly, he scanned the surroundings.

In the centre of this new world, a being was sitting on a cloud bed with his legs crossed and was the centre of attraction.

Even light was being absorbed into the silhouette of the godly being.

On his head, a streak of white energy shot up, forming clouds which held up the entire sky.

'This is still within the tent, and this hollow is merely created by the Sage with a single thought!'

Fang Yuan was certain that the person before him was The Ancient One!

"Your physical body is in good form, Hmm... and you are already at the 5th Tier of Illusionary Divine as a dream master? Not bad, not bad at all!"

The Ancient One peered through Fang Yuan and waved his hands. "The 8 of you are the strongest fighting force of the Realm Alliance. We have already waited for this moment long ago..."

"We will serve the Alliance Leader with our lives!"

Within the small hollow, Xi Chen, Green Wood, Black Water, Thick Earth, Sharp Gold, Extreme Darkness and Smelter were all there as they bowed together with Fang Yuan.

"Very well... I hope that none of you will disappoint me!"

The Ancient One clapped his hands lightly. "Xi Chen and Extreme Darkness, please remain. The rest of you, please take your leave!"

"Yes, Sir!"

Fang Yuan and Elder Smelter took their bows before leaving. As they left the tent, they exchanged glances before arriving at where Elder Smelter was staying.

"When did Alliance Leader come out of isolation?"

Fang Yuan appeared confused. "Didn't he say that he had an important task at hand?"

"The attack on the Jade Capital is of utmost importance. Alliance Leader and Lord Demon Killing Divine Pen have personally came here and other Sages had already taken over their tasks. Furthermore, before the final war, the remaining Sages will also arrive!"

Elder Smelter let out a mysterious chuckle.

This was not a piece of important information anyway. Therefore, he revealed it without any consideration to convince Fang Yuan to stay within the alliance.

Regardless, Fang Yuan was once from his faction and was already imprinted with Elder Smelter's print. Even though Feng Xinzi's incident had happened, Elder Smelter would still be credited for his contributions to the alliance.

"The arrival of two Sages and the fact that other Sages are ready to strike anytime... We also have more than half of the elders of the 5 Grand Organisations..."

Fang Yuan was lost in his thoughts. "If this is so, the war is about to happen?"

"Of course... War is always dangerous and even I myself don't know how long my old bag of bones can last..."

Elder Smelter sighed.

Fang Yuan gritted his teeth and was lost in his own thoughts.

...

At the same time, in Hidden Dragon Mountain.

"Head..."

On the top of the huge dragon statue, Mu Hezi's silhouette appeared. "This disciple of Heartless has an unpredictable cultivation and thinking... If we trust him blindly, it might affect our grand plan."

"If we do not trust him, then we shall not ask for his assistance. Since we have asked him for his assistance, we shall trust him. The fact that he is in possession of the 8 Gates Sword Array means that he can no longer be treated well by the 5 Grand Organisations... Even if he has an official position with them, he will still be despised."

The Head of Hidden Dragon Guards continued calmly. "We must continue to investigate. Although Baize Mountain has plenty of dream masters, we can still find leads some way or another."

"Yes Sir, I shall activate the 2nd Grade spies!" Mu Hezi took a bow. "However... The information might not be able to make it back in time!"

"Don't worry about this!"

Head of Hidden Dragon Guards was full of confidence. "As long as the two Source Crystals are with him, he does not have the rights to make the decision."

"You're wise, Head!"

Mu Hezi took another bow and his eyes were filled with excitement.

His predictions were correct. The Head of Hidden Dragon Guards had already secretly made alterations to the two pieces of Source Crystals.

No matter how much he would miss his old friend, when compared to the interests of the Imperial Court, the Head of Hidden Dragon Guards would still choose to sacrifice others to protect the Imperial Court. This was the motto of the Hidden Dragon Guards!

...

"The path of a Sage is to create an entire world!"

Within the base of the 5 Grand Organisation alliance, Fang Yuan gazed towards the two most plain-looking tents in the centre and sighed to himself.

How would any mere mortal be worthy enough to witness the power of a Sage?

A thin tent was all it took to separate worlds and even Fang Yuan could not detect it from outside.

"In the alliance of dream masters, there are a total of 5 Sages. Now, 2 have already arrived. They are The Ancient One of the Realm Alliance and Li Qingmian of the Source Seeking Sect! There are another 3 of them secretly altering the 6 Extremes Earth Shattering Array. As soon as the array is activated, they will be able to arrive to provide support!"

"Whereas for the Imperial Court, the only Prominent Divine fighting force would be the Head of the Hidden Dragon Guards and two other Imperial Advisors!"

One of them was a True Elemental while the other was a True Divine. Both of them were at the peaks of their cultivation and were supported by the Imperial Court. Therefore, their actions would have an unbelievable power and they would be powerful enough to fight against two Sages!

However, that was all.

Unless a miracle happened, in Fang Yuan's eyes, there was no way the Imperial Court would be able to win.

At this stage, any plan would not be able to work, for it was simply the challenge between brute force!

Unfortunately, the 5 Grand Organisations had already destroyed the Imperial Court's foundations.

"Even if I were to satisfy the requests of the Head of the Hidden Dragon Guards, nothing will seem to change..."

Fang Yuan thought about the 2 Source Crystals which he had received and started to smile.

Regardless if the two crystals were detrimental or not, Fang Yuan had already decided not to use them.

Any normal dream master would surely use them without hesitation as they would be overcome by greed and would take any risk to absorb the energy from them. However, Fang Yuan was different.

With the special ability of fixed stats, Fang Yuan could always dream-traverse and return with plenty of rewards! This was especially so for his latest experience on Planet Earth Realm, and Fang Yuan even felt a little full from absorbing so much energy from it.

'Under such circumstances, if the Imperial Court wants to fight back, what will they do?'

Fang Yuan put himself in the shoes of the Imperial Court and started to think. "The small details will no longer matter. Now, only the Sages would matter! Nothing will change... unless..."

Fang Yuan's eyes glistened.

"Wuuuu! Wuuuuu!"

At this point in time, the cold military bugle was sounded.

Soldiers walked out of their tents and formed neat rows in their platoons. The entire process was extremely silent.

With such a high quality of discipline, these soldiers would be considered elite anywhere they were to go.

Unfortunately, they would be the first wave of sacrifice in this war.

The 3 battalions of soldiers gathered and formed a tall platform outside the Jade Capital. It was about 35 yards tall. Shi Longtu sat above, donned in military armour. "Surrender!"

This was a mere formality and no one believed that it would work.

Indeed, the Jade Capital quickly sent out a message. The defending soldiers had rejected the offer to surrender. Furthermore, there were chants of "Long Live the Emperor" just beyond the city walls. A battalion of soldiers soon lined the top of the city walls. The soldier leading the pack held an umbrella with a yellow dragon on top.

"Is it Emperor Zhao Ming?"

Fang Yuan's exceptional eyesight allowed him to see the Emperor of Da Qian from afar.

To speak the truth, the emperor was just a matured looking middle-aged man. Even the servants around him seemed stronger than him.

Of course, this was only the impression of the emperor from a dream master who treated mortals like nothing.

To the average human being, the Emperor of Da Qian was a rightful Fate Soul!

With his appearance, the soldiers of Jade Capital started to chant loudly and felt energized.

Not just that, even the elite soldiers of Shi Longtu started to appear a little disorganised. Although they quickly composed themselves, Shi Longtu still felt a little discouraged.

He could never hide the fact that he was a rebel.

At that moment, Fang Yuan started to feel pity for Shi Longtu.

Even though Shi Longtu had ulterior motives, he would never lead the pack and sacrifice himself in front.

Unfortunately, under the pressure of the 5 Grand Organisations, all resistance was futile and no one would be able to change the mind of a Sage!

"Today, we shall charge all the way. Attack!"

Shi Longtu took in a deep breath before commanding the soldiers. With that, he wielded his sword and rushed forward.

"Charge!"

The 3 battalions roared and a bloodied fight ensued.
