Translator: Fate Translation Checker: Silavin Boom! The world blurred in an instant, and even the space was in disarray after being impacted by such immense and mighty power. All energy shattered, causing the stars to turn into dust before rushing towards the far edge of the wasteland. Everyone from the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains looked silently at the attack with pale faces. They couldn’t help shuddering at the overwhelming force. Those who stood at the city wall were, even more so, horrified, for from far away, they found the army, which was millions of times more terrifying than a torrent, charging towards them in innumerable numbers, covering the sky with darkness. Among them were millions with various weapons, as well as war beasts that were even more massive than mountains, controlled by Sacred Emperor Realm experts using chains as thick as buildings. With one roar, endless dark clouds would appear and envelope the sky. Rumble! The sky above Sky Deer City darkened at once, and stars were enveloped one after another as crumbling noises could be heard. It was supposed to be a city wall that levelled the sky and the universe. But now, it was crushed by the dark clouds. It was supposed to be powered by countless stars, such that even the surrounding universes had been impacted as immense power travelled over. Despite this, the wall was now shaking! Runes lit up one after another, only to be put out in the end. Whoosh! The turbulence from the Upper Realm True Daoists’ attempt to breach Sky Deer City’s array was already terrifying to a Sacred Emperor Realm expert. They felt apprehensive even with the barrier blocking the impact. So, what more the common cultivators who had long given in, shuddering in immense fear? All they could see in that thick mist was blurry figures enveloped in countless runes. [No living being can fight against them!] All the young prodigy couldn’t help kneeling in reverence towards the figures. To them, it was like ants facing a True Dragon. A being leagues beyond their reach. Finally, the light dimmed, and the waves stopped, but the world was in shambles, looking like it had exploded. The several terrifying and brilliantly lit supreme experts with Dharma Bodies, who had launched their attacks, stood in the sky and ceased. Just now, they were only trying to see how much more could the Sky Deer City’s array withstand. “Looks like the barrier is like a turtle shell, as usual. But this time, we will blow all your defences into dust,” they sneered out loud. Some of them looked elderly, while others looked young, but their vicissitudes were ill-concealed, and their blood boiled like they were the universe’s melting pot. “Looks like their defence array this time can’t last too long. Well, it is to be expected. They have to continuously feed it energy, and it will eventually be used up.” “The moment this barrier is breached is the moment the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains face their great defeat.” As many youths of the Upper Realm stood close to the front, as they witnessed the battle’s brutality. Meanwhile, graveness enveloped the faces of the likes of The King with Six Crowns, the Phoenix Lady, Sky Demon Sovereign, and Chosen Monk Jin Chan. However, they thought such an array was ultimately only a shield. If the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains were only counting on this barrier to fend off the Upper Realm, then they would be too naive. In the end, they landed their gazes on where Gu Changge and the True Daoists were. After all, they would be the ones to decide the direction of the battle. The rest were merely waiting for the city to be breached before charging inside. The Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains, on the other hand, wouldn’t dispatch their army away at this time either, for it certainly wouldn’t be a wise decision. “Who knows what decisions the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains would make?” Then, some noticed many Upper Realm supreme experts hadn’t made a move but only continued to impassively gaze at Sky Deer City from the depths of the sky. That said, their powers were beyond one’s imagination, and terrifying energy surged around each and every one of them like a black sea while trillions of divine rays interwoven behind their backs. “I wonder how much more the Sky Deer City’s barrier can take,” mused a supreme expert shrouded in black mist beside Gu Changge as he swept his impassive gaze across all the living beings before snorting disdainfully when he landed his eyes on the erected clan flag. “They won’t be able to keep this barrier up forever. They’ll definitely do what they have always done—send a cultivator out to fight,” hypothesised an ancient supreme expert that the other True Daoist present respected. “They’re merely wasting their time,” another sneered before shaking his head with contempt. He intended to sit back until the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains sent out their true peerless experts. “It’s worth probing. The Sky Deer City’s array seems to have some connection to when the Upper Realm’s Fortuity got stolen.” Profoundness laced Gu Changge’s eyes as he stood with the True Daoists, not attacking either. Now, the various forces of the Upper Realm and even supreme experts had arrived, so he didn’t need to fight several True Daoists directly anymore. Moreover, he would rather check out the cultivators of the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains at this time and pick someone to make a move on. [Who is to say a Fated One, someone who would turn the tide wouldn’t emerge as two realms fought, and Fortuity intertwined and merged? Be it any world, when it is laid to waste, its Fortuity would be in disorder. This is a fact that would never change. However, Fortuitous Ones like Lin Wu and Xiao Yang would not play a huge role in this. They are still too weak. If anything, they are just bait to lure even bigger fish, or to be used for other purposes.] [At the end of the day, the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains are split into eighteen parts. By right, there should be a few characters that stand out in these places.] Gu Changge’s interest was piqued when he swept his gaze across the figures on Sky Deer City’s city wall. That was when he found Zhao Yunze, the Young Domain Master of the Great Cloud Domain whom he deliberately let escape, and right then, he was boring into Gu Changge with cold animosity like the two had a blood feud. After all, he was the greatest among the young generation 60 million years ago. Even now, he was still a brilliant existence. However, he never managed to become a True Daoist. He was only one step away. “The attacks were blocked. Looks like our array can withstand a few more blows.” “But, we don’t know how many more blows it can take.” “We can’t go on like this. If the supreme experts from the Upper Realm attack all at once, the energy will be depleted very quickly.” Many Elders from various clans fixed their grim gazes on the bright light afar while standing on the city wall. They believed the array would eventually be breached if the situation kept up. Followingly, they exchanged glances and began discussing ways to stall. “Looks like we have to step in at the end of the day.” “No cultivators stand a chance against a True Daoist except for another True Daoist. Obviously, even a Sacred Emperor Realm expert is no match for them.” Immediately, several powerful cultivators enveloped in Chaos Qi stepped out from the shrine. With a flash, they appeared in the sky outside of Sky Deer City. All from the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains were appalled while mostly feeling worried and uneasy. “That’s Sky Fire Ancestor of the Vermilion Bird War God Clan. He became a True Daoist eighty million years ago, and his powers are unfathomable.” “And that’s the elder of the Green Vine Clan, a close friend of the fallen Elder from the Lu Clan. To think even he would make a move too.” “They’re going to stall for time…” The hearts of a few cultivators skipped a beat when they made out the few ancient beings who stepped out. Despite practically existing beyond time, many of them had barely ever made themselves known to the public. Even the Ancestors of most cultivators were Juniors to these ancient beings. For a moment, everyone felt nothing but waves of intimidating power. Never had they thought True Daoists would appear and attack at once. In past battles with the Upper Realm, those who attacked first would be the Sacred Realm cultivators before those in the Sacred Emperor Realm took over. But now, the True Daoists were the first to launch the counterattack. It was evident the situation had elevated to an exceptionally dire degree. Everyone couldn’t help clenching their fists as they stood on the city wall, feeling helpless as well as apprehensive for the attacking True Daoists. “Huh? It looks like they’re letting their True Daoists attack first this time. Perfect. That’ll save us a lot of trouble.” Many Upper Realm supreme experts sneered with casualness and contempt inside the mist. Followingly, bone-chilling footsteps began ringing, and several terrifying beings enveloped in brilliant light rays appeared outside of Sky Deer City. “Why do they not understand that they have no hope of winning this battle?” The Sky Deer Goddess, whose fair skin glowed slightly, watched the battle unfold silently behind Gu Changge. Far away, in front of her, was her Sky Deer City, but now, she suddenly had a hard time facing it. Meanwhile, after the supreme experts stepped out, tens of thousands of ancient flags were launched and scattered across the world. As they rang, terrifying World Principles descended, shielding the Upper Realm Army. To the surrounding people, even the aftershocks from True Daoists’ duels were unimaginably terrifying. So, this was to protect them. Boom! Very quickly, infinite rays of light burst out again. Massive hands traversed the world one after another as terrifying roars boomed at the edge of the galaxy. Someone roared as his entire body burned ablaze, and the World Principles he emitted looked like they would pierce through the entire universe. It was an unparalleled divine ability that could cause an entire realm to crumble. Even the Dharma Body stood beyond trillions of kilometres in height. All of them attacked with full force, showing the strongest powers they possessed. The battle lasted for a long time, and an endless chaotic void ignited the sky. The infinite godly flame seemed to want to burn a hole in the sky to no avail, for bloody rain poured. A terrifying phenomenon soon occurred. A massive star was falling and the universe was drying up. A True Daoist had fallen! Upon this change, the other True Daoists retreated to the shrine as divine rainbows, suffering similarly serious injuries. “The Sky Fire Ancestor has fallen…” “How can this be!? He was an invincible being back then! A peerless being when he was young! How can he be no match for the Upper Realm!?” Countless from the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains bawled at the sight as anger and malice enveloped their faces. Little did they imagine they would witness the fall of a True Daoist. Though his opponent had also suffered a grave injury and nearly died, to the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains, it was already an unimaginable loss. “I got careless. He nearly got me.” Lingering fear enveloped the supreme expert, who retreated to the Upper Realm Army. If he had missed his last attack, the one who died would’ve been him. Likewise, the other supreme experts who attacked suffered some injuries as well. “That Zhao Yunze is a pretty decent prey.” Gu Changge withdrew his gaze and glanced at the supreme expert when he heard the latter’s words, feeling somewhat pity for him. The supreme expert was, in fact, the very one who had mocked the Sky Deer Goddess. Just when Gu Changge thought he would die, he survived, having kept another trick up his sleeve. Alas went his chance to order Ah Da to collect one more True Daoist Source. “Things can’t go on like this.” “The consecutive failures have depleted our soldiers’ morale…” Cries and wails rang across the Eight Wastelands and Ten Domains as many True Daoists looked grimly out of the city where bloody rain continued to fall. Just as they were glumly devising their next plan of attack, a golden Dao laced with Celestial Energy fell from the misty sky afar. Followingly, footsteps reverberated across the world as a young man approached them. Because Celestial Energy and chaotic light enveloped him, he was like an Immortal who had come down from the heavens and wandered across the world. Dao flowers bloomed above his head one after another, and the Celestial Energy that fell entered his body and emerged above his head only to transform into Dao flowers again. The cycle repeated, nourishing the body. “Remember what I told you? Pray that you never see me again,” said the otherworldly-looking Gu Changge with a smile as he gazed at Zhao Yunze, who stood at the city wall.
