Until this moment, the people at the auction site finally understood why the Mittel Clan would make the information about this Secret Realm public.
It turned out that because the Luo Yan Empire had intervened, the Mittel Clan could no longer swallow the remaining resources of this Secret Realm on their own, which is why they wanted to pull everyone else in!
They were wondering, how could the Mittel Clan be so kindhearted?
However, as things stood, the others had also figured everything out. The plan the Mittel Clan was hatching was simple: leverage the strength of the entire Jia Ma Empire to contend with the Luo Yan Empire!
Although in terms of overall strength, the Luo Yan Empire was a notch stronger than the Jia Ma Empire, it wasn't by much.
If they gathered the power of the entire Jia Ma Empire to resist the Luo Yan Empire, the opponent would clearly be unable to take all the resources within the Secret Realm for themselves.
At that time, even if the Luo Yan Empire could seize more resources, they wouldn't necessarily end up with nothing. Don't forget, among those at this auction today, besides the people of the Jia Ma Empire, there were also some forces from other empires.
Now, they had also obtained this news. Once they brought this news back to their respective countries, they would clearly have the forces behind them explore the Secret Realm as well. In this way, the water would naturally be muddied even further.
This chain of calculations was where the Mittel Clan's true brilliance lay!
"In other words, regarding the resources within that Secret Realm, we need to launch a struggle against the Luo Yan Empire, is that it?" Jia Xingtian also spoke up to inquire at this time.
Although the several Dou Huang, including Jia Xingtian, were unhappy with the Mittel Clan's schemes, it must be said that facing such a Secret Realm about to appear in the world, it was clearly impossible for them not to be moved.
Don't forget, this Secret Realm had caused a Rank 7 magic beast to meet its downfall. Additionally, the resources for Hai Bodong's initial promotion to Dou Huang were also obtained within this Secret Realm.
How could others not be tempted? Therefore, even though they knew this was a calculation from the Mittel Clan, they could only choose to accept. For this Secret Realm journey, as long as one had even a bit of strength, no one would give up!
After all, even if they couldn't eat the meat, drinking a bit of soup was still good! As for the competitors, that would naturally be the Luo Yan Empire.
"Yes, the strength of the Luo Yan Empire is something I presume you all are clear on. Therefore, I hope that when the time comes, we can unite and stand together against outsiders. Otherwise, we will not be able to compete with the Luo Yan Empire."
This time, within the words Mittel Tengshan spoke, there was even a trace of entreaty.
As the Mittel Clan who had enjoyed a portion of the Secret Realm's benefits early on, they knew all too well what kind of heart-stirring resources still remained within that Secret Realm.
That was why they made the information public, hoping to use the power of the entire Jia Ma Empire to take a bite of the meat from this Secret Realm journey!
"Since the competitors are other nations, we ought to unite to avoid being defeated one by one. My Jia Ma Imperial Family has no objections!"
The words Jia Xingtian spoke represented the entire Jia Ma Imperial Family.
"My Yun Lan Sect also agrees to this alliance!"
Yun Shan also chose to agree to the Mittel Clan's proposal at this time.
As the Sect Master of the Yun Lan Sect, he was no fool who thought he could defeat the entire Luo Yan Empire with his strength alone. Of course, if it were the Yun Lan Sect during its peak period, they would indeed have that confidence.
Unfortunately, many of the Yun Lan Sect's inheritances have been lost, and the entire sect is overall on a downward slope; they have long since lost the strength to look down upon all heroes from the era of Yun Potian.
"Although my Alchemist Association has always upheld the principle of neutrality that is for internal matters. Since we must now face outsiders, we will naturally contribute our own share of effort!"
The President of the Alchemist Association, Fa Ma, was not some stubborn old man; on the contrary, he was very open-minded. This could be seen from the original story, where he stepped forward several times when the Jia Ma Empire encountered a crisis.
Just as he said, the Alchemist Association maintained an absolutely neutral attitude internally, but externally, anyone who was an enemy would be crushed!
"My Xiao Clan has no objections."
"The Nalan Clan also has no objections."
"The Mu Clan will base everything on the interests of the Empire!"
Following the statements from the three Dou Huang level powers, the three Dou Wang Clans—the Xiao Clan, Nalan Clan, and Mu Clan—closely followed behind.
"My Li Clan agrees."
"My Chen Clan also agrees."
"Qiu Shui Hall agrees."
"Yuan Shan Gate agrees."
"Shui Yun Sect agrees."
"Rui Long Pavilion agrees."
...
At this moment, every family and sect power, large or small, belonging to the Jia Ma Empire all chose to unite!
After all, they weren't stupid.
When facing the Luo Yan Empire, if they didn't choose to join forces, they might not even have the qualification to enter the field!
As for the remaining people from other countries, after learning this news, they had long since vanished. They needed to inform the forces behind them of this news; for this opening of the Secret Realm, they also wanted a piece of the pie!
Ultimately, all the Jia Ma Empire forces that wanted to explore the Secret Realm chose to unite without exception. This scene was exactly what the Mittel Clan wanted to see. Or rather, their objective had been achieved.
"Very well, three months from now, gather at the East Gate of the Jia Ma Capital. We will explore that Secret Realm together!"
As Mittel Tengshan's voice fell, it set the tone for the Secret Realm journey three months later. At the same time, it represented the true end of this auction!
Immediately, the various parties also gradually left the venue. After Xiao Lin chatted for a while with Nalan Jie and Mu Chen, they each went back. They all had to prepare for the Secret Realm journey three months from now.
After Xiao Lin returned to the family, he first handed over a portion of the items purchased at the auction to the Clan Leader, Xiao Dongcheng, and then immediately informed him of the news regarding the Secret Realm.
To this, Xiao Dongcheng didn't say much, only stating that everything would be decided by Xiao Lin himself. Xiao Lin's idea was very simple, which was to lead a portion of the clansmen to participate in this struggle for the Secret Realm.
With his strength, in this kind of Secret Realm where one could fish in troubled waters, he could practically be described as a fish in water. As for the younger generation of the Xiao Clan, it was indeed time for them to go out and gain some experience.
Ultimately, Xiao Lin chose a total of ten Da Dou Shi, including Xiao Ze, Xiao Zhen, and Xiao Yi, as well as a Xiao Clan Elder who had just broken through to Dou Ling, to set out together. Since the Xiao Clan had become a Dou Wang Clan, the resources they obtained were naturally enough to cultivate a few more Dou Ling.
Case in point, a Xiao Clan Elder who was originally stuck at the peak of Nine-Star Da Dou Shi had successfully stepped into the ranks of Dou Ling with the help of a portion of the resources obtained during the partitioning of the Mittel Clan.
Although this Xiao Clan Elder was only a One-star Dou Ling, compared to a Da Dou Shi, they were already as different as day and night. After selecting the clan members to explore the Secret Realm, Xiao Lin immersed himself in studying that book, Guide to Elementary Formations.
