Chapter 252 - 219: An Army of Tens of Millions!_1
All that had transpired in the Third Celestial Realm quickly spread.
Surrounding worlds, upon hearing the news, were all shocked.
And within the Third Celestial Realm itself, many forces from the Immortal Domain, upon receiving the message, contacted the Immortal Domain at once!
“Reporting to the Main Ancestral Hall, the First Heavenly Realm seems to have made a comeback, and seven Immortals have already perished in the Third Celestial Realm—the great war is impending!”
In an Immortal City, an Immortal Monarch gravely communicated with the Transmission Crystal!
“Please report to the Immortal Kingdom immediately, the First Heavenly Realm has made a comeback with formidable force!”
“A major battle will take place in the Lower World, please have the Main Ancestral Hall pay immediate attention!”
“Request the Immortal Kingdom to send reinforcements!”
Messages like these emanated from the Third Celestial Realm!
Simultaneously, the other two Great Heavenly Realms also received the news.
“The First Heavenly Realm has made a comeback?”
Within the Second Celestial Realm, inside a colossal Golden Palace, a man clad in golden armor wore a cold smile on his face.
Beneath him, eight Celestial Monarchs looked solemn!
“It’s getting interesting. Qi Ming Heavenly Monarch, Jinhui Sky Monarch, how about you two take a trip?”
The man in the golden armor spoke.
“At your command!”
The two Celestial Monarchs immediately rose and departed.
The Fourth Celestial Realm.
“Could it be that the Ji Family is making its return…”
The one leading was an elder, his neck adorned with a string of white bones, giving him a savage and eerie aura.
“We cannot sit idly by. Dongshi Sky Monarch, would you be troubled to make the journey?”
At the lower end, a Celestial Monarch rose at once, saying:
“I shall extinguish every last one of the Ji Family!”
…
Immortal Domain!
Today, many major Immortal Domains were astir!
Eastern Immortal Domain!
Today, within the Mingluo Immortal Kingdom, a Celestial Monarch urgently convened the Monarch Level figures within the nation!
“The First Heavenly Realm has reemerged, coupled with the sword intent of the former Infinite Sword King that once struck from the Lower World, we cannot afford to overlook this!”
“Immediately light the Immortal King Candle and inform the Immortal King!”
…
In the Western Immortal Domain.
There lay an ancient country of the Brahman Path!
Countless temples, the sound of scriptures shook the heavens!
“Changes have occurred in the Lower World, the First Heavenly Realm has reappeared, perhaps… is this the omen that the Immortal Great Calamity is about to arrive?”
A decayed being of the Brahman Path sighed lightly. He gently tapped the wooden fish and murmured something in front of the worshipped Immortal Brahman image.
…
Central Immortal Domain.
“As the Immortal King left, he once said that he was going to investigate a great cause and effect, and not to disturb him unless it was absolutely necessary…”
Within the Antuo Immortal Kingdom, an elder murmured, very hesitant.
“But, this matter is a great cause and effect for the Immortal King as well!”
Another elder, however, spoke up, saying:
“The reappearance of the First Heavenly Realm, the former Infinite Sword King even dared to claim that the True Sword Seed in the Lower World upon return would decimate Immortal Kings… This cause and effect must be resolved!”
The first elder nodded his head, eventually taking out a mirror.
He dropped three drops of Celestial Monarch’s blood.
…
At this moment.
Many secret places within the Immortal Domain.
were all stirring.
Inside a palace of immortals,
Two tremendously terrifying figures were sitting opposite each other, one with the Taiji Pattern on his forehead.
These two, were none other than the Antuo Immortal King and the Immortal King Yulan!
“Since returning from the River of Cause and Effect, three months have passed…”
Yulan looked at the Antuo Immortal King and said:
“Do you truly care so much about this cause and effect?”
Antuo Immortal King shook his head and replied:
“Once the Saint Descent comes, the Ancient Clan will emerge, and even though we are Immortal Heavenly Kings, in front of the Saint Path, we are all subject to the Heaven’s Will Blade—if we cannot endure, we can only fall.”
“On the contrary, beings like the Phoenix Clan are often the least affected and are even likely to soar in the epoch when the Saint Path emerges… We must resolve this matter before the Saint Path descends, and exterminate the True Phoenix Clan.”
“Otherwise, I will not be at peace!”
Yulan heaved a deep sigh and said:
“Your resolve is firm, yet despite employing various methods of divination, I can only see layers of fog…”
Antuo fell into silence.
Could it be that they truly could not find the cause and effect?
But, at that moment,
A divine light suddenly burst forth from his eyes!
He abruptly stood up.
The Great Dao swayed in response!
“What happened?”
Yulan asked in surprise.
“The cause and effect… have appeared.”
Antuo’s expression was somber as he said:
“The First Heavenly Realm has reappeared, and is now capable of annihilating Celestial Monarchs!”
“I suspect… an Immortal King has intervened!”
Hearing this, Yulan was taken aback and responded:
“The First Heavenly Realm is but a coordinate left in the Void Sea Domain by a certain Holy Dao Power, and I never supported your participation in that battle… Its reappearance now indeed signifies an extraordinary cause and effect!”
“Once that Holy Dao Power returns, you might…”
Antuo Immortal King’s face turned icy as he said:
“That’s why I must go there myself!”
“If the First Heavenly Realm does not perish, I will not be at peace!”
He turned around and stepped forward.
His figure vanished from the spot instantly!
…
In a certain mountain range.
Endless peaks stood towering, spanning hundreds of thousands of miles.
Yet beneath the mountains, there was actually a person.
He was exceedingly tall, with entire mountain ranges resting upon his shoulders!
——The mountains that spanned a million li across the surface of the earth were all carried by him on his shoulders!
It was terrifying to the extreme!
This was a man who resembled a giant.
“I will only wait here for the return of my ancestors, I will not leave!”
The man, giant-like in stature, spoke indifferently as he looked at an elder before him!
That elder… was none other than King Ming Luo!
King Ming Luo had earnestly conversed with him for over a month, but, in the end, failed to persuade him!
“Are you not tempted even by the legacy of the King of Black and White? You should be aware that he was the individual closest to the Saint Path. Moreover, rumors say that in his tenth reincarnation, he became a true Immortal Emperor. Once he entered the Saint Path, he would become the most formidable saint within the Sacred Dao Domain…”
King Ming Luo pleaded earnestly.
“A person born in the wrong era, no matter how powerful, ultimately did not step into the Saint Path!”
The giant-like man said with disdain,
“You may go now, out of the many years of our acquaintance, perhaps when my ancestors descend, I might speak a word of sentiment on your behalf.”
King Ming Luo let out a long sigh!
He was merely an ordinary Immortal King and because he had participated in the assassination battle against the Immortal King of the First Heavenly Realm in years past, he had sustained internal injuries.
Therefore, he wanted to rely on this man.
Because the man’s bloodline was extremely powerful and he possessed the bearing of a Celestial King!
Alas, the man insisted on remaining here.
He was unwilling to leave.
King Ming Luo turned and left.
Just at that moment.
“Hmm?!”
Suddenly, a voice echoed in King Ming Luo’s mind!
He abruptly turned around and said,
“Olympian Immortal King, it seems now you have no choice but to descend to the Lower World!”
The giant Olympian said indifferently, “Oh?”
“Because the First Heavenly Realm has reappeared!”
On Ming Luo’s aged face, a smile appeared as he said,
“The Ji Family and your clan have a great vengeance as well, don’t they?!”
If there was no enmity, Olympian Immortal King would not have taken part in the assassination of the Immortal King of the First Heavenly Realm in the past!
Hearing this, Olympian Immortal King suddenly lifted his gaze.
His eyes blazed with killing intent!
He took a sudden step forward.
The million mountains he bore on his back thunderously fell to the ground.
Within a certain region of the Eastern Immortal Domain, countless mountains collapsed, and tens of thousands of mountain ranges were broken!
“The First Heavenly Realm?!”
Olympian Immortal King spoke slowly, yet firmly,
“If you dare deceive me, I will turn you into Primordial Essence!”
…
In the Northern Immortal Domain, the Northern Border.
Xueming Celestial Nation.
“The First Heavenly Realm… could it truly be the First Heavenly Realm…”
Xuanguang Celestial Lord and Xuanming Celestial Lord wore expressions of disbelief on their faces.
Even individuals at the Celestial Monarch level had perished…
“Incredible… it seems that this will once again bring about the kind of great war that took place during the assassination of the Immortal King of the First Heavenly Realm in the past…”
Xuanming muttered to himself before finally saying,
“Activate the Array and send the message to the Immortal King!”
…
The entire Immortal Domain was in an uproar!
All sides paid close attention!
…
And at this moment.
In the Lower World, within the boundless Void Sea Domain.
Seven streaks of rainbow light moved at incredible speed!
Before too long.
They finally arrived within a certain region of the Void Sea Domain.
Ahead, lay a vast world.
Larger even than the Heavenly Realm!
“It is indeed the Heavenly Realm, second only to the Immortal Domain…”
Dugu Yuqing held the brush in his hand and said, “I hope more Celestial Monarch-level figures arrive, so I can complete that ‘eternal’ character!”
“The battlefield is large enough!”
Lu Rang was rubbing his hands together too, as he turned to Jiang Li and said,
“Don’t do anything rash now, if you kill them all, there will be none left for us to kill!”
He cautioned him!
To everyone, Lu Rang was now viewed as a threat on the same level as Zi Ling.
Their ability to annihilate the enemy on a large scale was just too monstrous!
He was simply the father of group battles!
“Uh… okay!”
Jiang Li nodded his head.
“They are coming!”
Wu Dade pointed ahead!
Seen from beyond the Third Celestial Realm, an endless army was arrayed in a line, numbering seven to eight million!
Among them, Immortal-level warships numbered in the dozens!
The aura of Celestial Monarchs was also faintly discernible!
And as the army of the Third Celestial Realm made its appearance, armies from all directions in the Void Sea Domain began to converge.
“Jinhui Sky Monarch and Qi Ming Heavenly Monarch from the Second Celestial Realm lead a million-strong army here to provide support!”
“Dongshi Sky Monarch from the Fourth Celestial Realm brings one million and five hundred thousand troops!”
The news thundered through the skies!
Some allied forces comprising several million soldiers from the Three Great Heavenly Realms and other subordinate large worlds were also present.
In the Void Sea Domain, there were a total of more than ten million soldiers!
With over ten Celestial Monarchs, hundreds of Immortals, tens of thousands of Daluo Golden Immortals, and millions of Taiyi Golden Immortals and Golden Immortals, their numbers were beyond count!
Millions of soldiers enveloped seven Daluo Golden Immortals!
A battle of unprecedented scale!
