“That bastardly fellow! To think that I’d even revered him so much!” Chuangshang Beidao gritted his teeth and cursed. “How are we disgusting? Isn’t it just that we look a little different from the humans from the Xuan Xuan Continent?! To think that the number one expert in the world was actually so base and short-sighted...”
“Any words that comes out of the mouth of a true expert will be an eternal mark of truth! That year, the number one expert of our Divine Sun clan, a Half-Sage expert, Great Sage Baqi went out in fury to battle, but... he was defeated by the Nine Nether First Young Master in one strike...” As he spoke to here, the three voices all sighed together, their tones filled with endless shame and helplessness.
The most powerful expert of their race, the Great Sage Baqi who was a Half-Sage expert, was defeated in one stroke! Defeated in a single move!
Against such a ridiculously wide difference of strength, what talk was there of resistance?
All resistance was futile, and completely meaningless!
“After that battle, no... after that single attack,the Nine Nether First Young Master snorted disdainfully while he rested his foot on Great Sage Baqi’s head, and said, “To kill creatures as disgusting as you, would be dirtying my hands!”
Chuangshang Beidao’s body began to tremble, and he felt a surge of hot blood rush to his head. Growling angrily, he cursed: “F*cking tyrant!”
“After the Nine Nether First Young Master left, he immediately used his peerless techniques and erected that gigantic barrier to separate the two lands—the Pillar of Heavens Mountains!” The aged voice croaked hatefully. “And on the ground, he even devised an immensely strange and profound soul restricting formation! Then, he condemned our Divine Sun race to suffer forever in here...”
Of course, the Nine Nether First Young Master would definitely not have said it so gently. His exact words would probably be more like: “I’ll let you bunch of freaks who bring disgust to anyone who looks at you stay here and enjoy this painful life...”
“Soul restricting formation? Is that why you three Seniors cannot leave?” Chuangshang Beidao finally seemed to have understood something.
“Exactly. If any expert with equivalent strength to the Half-Sage level or above tries to step past the Pillar of Heavens Mountains, that expert will be immediately swallowed by the Soul Restricting Formation! And so, although our Divine Sun had produced many experts over the years, we were at most only able to send out Saint Monarch level experts for the War for Seizing the Heavens!”
The aged voice sighed and continued. “It’s not that we are unwilling to lend our strength for our people. It’s just... we simply cannot break the Soul Restricting Formation’s seal! That kind of power can undoubtedly be considered as a peak level power no matter what world it appears in! Against such absolute strength, we can only accept...”
Chuangshang Beidao only felt exceedingly unwilling and he sighed helplessly. “Could it be that there’s really no way to break that Soul Restricting Formation?”
“Of course it can be broken... we just need a single person whose cultivation exceeds the Nine Nether First Young Master of that year when he set up the formation! Only someone that is stronger than the him of that year can break through the seal!”
The aged voice carried endless bitterness. “However, is that possible!? It’s completely impossible! For the last 10,000 years, not to mention a person who could surpass the Nine Nether First Young Master, there wasn’t even a single person on our side who managed to reach the Sage realm... an expert who could surpass the Nine Nether First Young Master does not exist at all! In these last 10,000 years, there were only three people who managed to reach the Sage realm and above. But do you know? All three of them were the Nine Nether First Young Master’s disciples! Even his disciples had already broken through the Sage realm and went off to explore the endless void. So what kind of level had their master, the Nine Nether First Young Master reached! No one... can surpass the Nine Nether First Young Master....”
“Surpass the Nine Nether First Young Master...” Chuangshang Beidao felt his world spinning. Not to mention how impossible this matter was, just the thought of it made his head spin.
“From what you said, even if we managed to force our way through to the other side, we’ll only be weaklings that can be killed with ease there...” Chuangshang Beidao said bitterly.
“That is not necessarily so. As you’ve said just now, that Gu Han’s strength had deteriorated instead of improving. As for the rest of the experts, they are too few to matter. Right now, the only one who can suppress you is that so-called peerless expert.”
Another aged voice rang out. “It’s true that we cannot go to the other side of the Pillar of Heavens Mountains, but... if you can lure that person into our Divine Sun territory, as long as it’s far away enough from the Pillar of Heavens Mountains, the three of us are confident in ensuring that he never returns!”
“Lure him over...” Chuangshang Beidao’s eyes lit up, but his head began to hurt again.
This was undoubtedly the only viable solution right now...
But the crux of the problem was, how were they supposed to lure him here?
With that person’s strength, who had the ability to lure him into the Outsiders’ territory?!
Although there weren’t any specific details yet, the main direction of the plan had already been established. Chuangshang Beidao did not have any other reservations as he turned and rushed back to the frontlines.
The moment Chuangshang Beidao got back, he gave the command immediately for the main army to launch a full attack!
Just like that, the final battle had erupted!
And this battle was bound to be exceedingly intense!
Even fiercer than the previous battles...
...
At this time, the entire Xuan Xuan Continent had already fallen into a scattered and disorderly state!
In a short moment, the entire continent had been stirred up.
The shocking news that came from the direction of the Pillar of Heavens Mountains traveled through the entire continent like a fierce hurricane.
In a short time, the continent exploded with chaos as Xuan cultivators from all over the continent were stirred up!
The news that’d been released by the three strongest powers in the world, the Evil Monarch Manor, Tian Fa Forest, and Three Holy Lands, was treated with the greatest importance.
The invasion of the Outsiders!
The continent in great danger!
The Evil Monarch Manor, Tian Fa Forest, and the three Holy Lands had joined hands to repel the outside invaders with their full force, but the situation did not look good...
In the first moment that the news spread out, the Dongfang Family, Duanmu Family, and Sikong Family immediately gathered their full force and set off towards the Pillar of Heavens Mountains!
Sikong Anye, Duanmu Chaofan, these two family heads, led their family troops and hurried towards the battle without any reservation.
The Dongfang Family was led by Old Madam Dongfang herself, following closely behind those two. Even the servants who only had Silver Xuan and Golden Xuan cultivation were brought along!
The white robed sword cultivators of Blizzard Silver City also swept forth like a snow storm, rushing towards the Pillar of Heavens Mountains.
The old City Lord, Han Fengxue, together with Han Zhanmeng and Xue Shuangqing, as well as Mu Xuetong and the rest, activated all the forces they could gather, and followed along as well.
All the major countries of the continent were stirred up as they received this news.
Tian Xiang was the fastest to react. On the same day that they received this news, Prime Minister Li Youran called for an emergency meeting and urged the Emperor to gather all the Xuan cultivators in their lands and march towards Tian Nan with their own troops to provide reinforcements.
The normally graceful Li Youran was so worked up this time that spittle flew out of his mouth as he roared and gestured wildly in the court meeting. From the look on his face, it was clear to see just how serious this matter was!
As the person that understood Jun Moxie the most, Li Youran knew that this matter had already reached an extremely precarious state!
Simply because, this request for reinforcements had been sent by Jun Moxie himself!
What kind of personality did Jun Moxie have?
As long as he had even a sliver of confidence of victory, Jun Moxie would never ask for help!
But even with all the combined strength of the Evil Monarch Manor, Tian Fa Forest, and the three Holy Lands, this lineup that was undoubtedly the strongest of the continent, Jun Moxie had still sent out such a message.
In that case, there was only one conclusion. The situation had already reached a point where they were losing control over it!
The Emperor of Tian Xiang, Yang Huainong, also did not hesitate to show his support.
Dugu Family’s head, old man Dugu Zongheng, personally led the troops. Even the old family head of the Murong Family, Murong Fengyun, who’d retired for more than a year, re-emerged and bravely stood at the front, leading his own troops. The two old generals only used a single day’s time to gather all the powerful Xuan cultivators of the city, and rushed nonstop towards Tian Nan.
There was no time to fully gather every single expert. The main army could only move first, while the rest tried to catch up as quickly as possible.
When the main army departed from the city, there were only about 20,000 people. But by the time they’d reached the 1,000 li mark, their forces had already swelled to 30,000. Just like a snowball rolling down a mountain, it grew bigger and bigger as it went. Their speed did not decrease at all, and instead became even faster.
Before Murong Fengyun set off, he went off alone to the Lover’s Mound and sat quietly before his daughter’s grave for a long time. When he finally stood up to go, he sighed sadly and whispered, “Little Ye, whether you’re under the ground or in the sky, please take good care of my daughter.”
At this moment, the old man had finally formally accepted Ye Guhan as his son-in-law. Sadly, it was already too late...
However, this was still the final wish of this poor old man as a father! Since Murong Fengyun had decided to leave, he’d already given up any hopes of returning alive...
Countless experts of the pugilistic world also joined up with this army, bringing with them nothing but their own weapons and their hot blood.
The three great generals of the Dugu Family, together with the seven brothers from the third generation ‘Heroes and Legends Bravely Rushing Forward’, all came out in full force!
Even the God of Fortune Tang Yuan, did not hesitate at all. Without saying anything, he took out over 90 percent of his fortune, and made use of his network, pulling in the nine great merchants of the continent. Exerting both strength and money, he declared that all the military expenses of this expedition would be fully covered by the 10 of them together, allowing all the brave warriors heading for the frontlines to not have to worry about anything!
At the same time, he utilized all the financial power of the Aristocratic Hall and purchased all the medicinal pills and precious herbs from around the continent, sending them out in large batches to the battlefront...
Apart from a tiny portion of people and some small families, nearly every influential family had set off towards Tian Nan. At the same time, countless logistics personnels and items were being collected around Tang Yuan with a frightening speed.
