[Mystic Heaven: I received a divine-tier skill from the God's legacy I obtained. It can let me take control of the mind of those weaker than me at any moment. After hearing of Teddy's plan to trap Blazing Shit in the Final Battlefield, I knew it would be very useful to his plan.]
[So, I began paying close attention to Blazing Shit, and found out that his subjects usually leave his city to trade with the neighboring territories. Using that opportunity, I was able to take control of the minds of a few of them. With them as vanguards, taking down Blazing Shit's territory should be possible. And while he's still trapped, we should be able to loot his treasury and his city.]
Staring at the message on their lord's interface, Teddy frowned as he speculated on his chance of defending against such a skill, while Heaven's Eye and Supreme Buddha were shocked and fearful of it.
Stopping his thoughts from rampaging, he dropped a message.
[Teddy: If that's so, then I'm confident of the plan.]
[Mystic Heaven: In 3 days time, we'll deal with the greatest enemy of our lives.]

Returning to the city after making a trip to the outskirts of Tahan Kingdom and handing over 10 Epic-tier and Extraordinary-tier weapons to Saifen, Dai Lui made his way to the war-room.
Arriving in the room, he reported to his lord in the presence of his commander and the city's strongest soldier.
"The titans completed yesterday's deal and also today's deal."
"They must've obtained a lot after conquering the Kingdom of Aurora."
He reported while handing a spatial ring to his lord.
"Of course they would've. Aurora Kingdom is a century old kingdom after all."
Zhou Zhou couldn't hide his excitement as he quickly inspected the spatial ring.
"A pity we didn't have it all to ourselves."
Lu Chong said unhappily.
"We're already attracting a lot of attention from the myriad races due to our performance in the lord battlefield, conquering a kingdom will make it worse."
"As the lord previously said, we need to step away from the spotlight for a chance at survival."
Bai Yung said beside Lu Chong.
While his soldiers were discussing, Zhou Zhou finished with his inspection.
Contained in the spatial ring were:
50 Fusion Certificates! (10 White platinum-tier, 10 Yellow gold-tier, 15 White silver-tier, 15 Green bronze-tier)
30 Territory Tokens! (6 White platinum-tier, 6 Yellow gold-tier, 6 White silver-tier, 6 Green bronze-tier, 6 Black iron-tier)
2,000,000 Basic Elemental Gems!
90,000 High-level Elemental Gems! (30,000 Thunder Gems, 30,000 Life Gems, 30,000 Death Gems)
2,500 Lord Corpses! (300 Diamond-tier, 800 White platinum-tier, 800 Yellow gold-tier, 600 White silver-tier)
The regional tokens were replaced by 500 lord corpses.
Taking his focus off the goods, he thought of a simpler plan to benefit off the war between his neighbors.
'Rather than arming both sides that might end up helping a third party, I can make use of the nature of the Titans to progress my plan.'
The titans are beings of war, conquest and chaos, the only thing able to keep them in check is their own weakness. But as long as they are strong enough, they won't halt their quest to conquer those around them.
An example was already playing out right this moment.
With the increase in strength brought by the acquisition of tiered weapons, they immediately launched an attack against the Tahan Kingdom right after ransacking the Kingdom of Aurora.
'As long as I keep them strong, they will bring me enough benefits without implicating me or my city.'
Zhou Zhou's eyes sparkled as the thought of earning a lot of benefits with minimal effort.
'I will have the twin examine the plan to pick out deficits.'
Choosing to make use of the best brains in regards to deductions and strategies, he called for a break.
"We'll return in an hour."
He said to Bai Yung and Lu Chong.
"Yes, my lord."
They both responded.
Turning to Dai Lui, he said.
"We won't be dealing business with the Tahan Kingdom anymore, focus only on dealing with the Titan Kingdom."
"Yes, my lord."
Dai Lui acknowledged the order.
Concerning the reason for the order, he had a feeling it must be the result shown by both kingdoms.
'Compared to the Tahans, the Titans magnified the effect of the weapons they were given.'
He mused as he watched his lord vanish from the war-room.
.
Emerging in his manor, Zhou Zhou immediately began looting the lord corpses.
"From the clues I've gathered, it seems whoever is granted control over a territory from a recognized authority can form lord talent crystal fragments in their bodies."
"However, the chance of accumulating enough crystal fragments to form a lord talent divine sphere seems very low."
Muttering to himself, he finished looting the lord corpses.
