Chapter 44 The War of Gods Re-emerges
Beneath the torn starry sky, the shattered universe seemed unable to withstand the conquest of the powerful forces, breaking apart inch by inch. The endless void rifts were like the gaping maws of an abyss, devouring all light and life.
The powerful forces clashed, each strike containing earth-shattering power; stars fell, galaxies were annihilated, and only a chilling atmosphere remained between heaven and earth.
Heroes roared across the heavens and earth, and flashes of blood appeared intermittently.
"The war of the gods re-emerges..."
Some powerful clan leaders muttered to themselves upon seeing the appearance of the forbidden zone expert with a thousand pounds of strength, and then immediately sensed something was wrong.
Now, the great war on the edge of the universe is no longer a feud between the remnants of the Heavenly Court and the Feathered Ones, but a continuation of the war at the end of the mythological era, with all forces having to take the stage.
"boom!"
Suddenly, the dark mist stirred, and the aura of corpses soared into the sky. Dozens of figures appeared on the edge of the universe, and a giant appeared, slamming a pitch-black hand down towards Ye Wujiang.
The underworld has also mobilized, and their momentum is unstoppable.
Even more terrifying, in the distance, the dark mist churned, and a horrifying shadow appeared—the army of the underworld had been mobilized.
Among them were several extremely powerful individuals, all of whom were battle slaves of the Ninth Heaven.
"Burning the heavens without end!"
Ye Wujiang roared, and endless crimson clouds appeared in the Burning Heaven Furnace. The Burning Heaven Flame burned the heavens, extremely strong and yang, countering the yin energy of the underworld, and burning the pitch-black hand of that underworld giant until it became transparent.
"These are all the remains of near-emperors!"
The dark mist dissipated, revealing the true faces of the people from the underworld.
These were all the remains of quasi-emperors, led by several battle slaves from the Ninth Heaven, who participated in the battlefield.
The underworld of this period was not the underworld of later generations after it had been cleansed by many great emperors.
Today's underworld not only contains many supreme emperors, but also the remains of countless heroes from the mythological era.
In the mythological era, the laws of the Underworld Lord influenced many people, and many outstanding figures voluntarily entered the Underworld in order to seek the method of reincarnation and achieve immortality.
After years of nurturing, they all became war slaves of the underworld.
"kill!"
The people of the Ancient Heavenly Court roared. By now, they finally understood that they had been tricked. Yu Zhe had joined forces with the Forbidden Zone and the Underworld to take this opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop.
The underworld, in particular, had a significant impact on the war, immediately altering the battlefield situation and putting the remnants of the ancient Heavenly Court at a complete disadvantage.
The Nine Heavens' war slaves, and in such large numbers, are a force that even the remnants of the ancient Heavenly Court could not contend with simultaneously.
"If you think you can wipe us all out, you'll have to see how tough your teeth are!"
Yan Qi, who was fighting against Fang He Dao Ren, saw the large army of the Underworld and his eyes turned cold. Then he took out a horn and blew it.
"Waaah..."
The sound of the horn startled the entire universe, awakening many sleeping powerhouses. Some powerful clans and sects even broke through their divine source, leading countless armies to the edge of the universe to participate in that battle.
During this period, the Heavenly Court's followers, scattered throughout the universe, did not join Yan Qi and others' Heavenly Palace, but they remained a powerful force in their respective domains.
Now that the war horn has sounded, they have once again embarked on their journey.
"War horn!"
"It seems we're really headed for a life-or-death battle!"
Many younger people don't understand what the war horn means, but some older people do know its significance.
At the end of the mythological era, when the realms of the gods were in chaos, war horns sounded, and countless heavenly soldiers and generals were dispatched to conquer one star field after another.
As more and more dimensional gates opened, the descendants of the Heavenly Court's subjects, led by quasi-emperors and great saints, headed to the edge of the universe.
"kill!"
The overwhelming shouts of battle shook the galaxy as countless celestial beings formed battle formations to fight against the army of the underworld.
"It was truly a devastating battle. After this fight, the remnants of the Heavenly Court are destined to fade from the stage of history!"
Qin Wuxiang lamented that even if heroes from all directions gathered, the foundation accumulated by the remnants of the ancient Heavenly Court from the end of the mythological era to the present would be completely exhausted after this battle.
"However, they had no choice. This was a trap set specifically for them, and they had no way to avoid it!"
Elder Xuan spoke, his gaze indifferent.
"I wonder if the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone will make a move!"
Then, Qin Wuxiang continued speaking.
Elder Xuan: "No!"
"To the Supreme Beings, neither the Feathered Ones nor the remnants of the Heavenly Court are worthy of their attention. Without attaining enlightenment, they don't even have the right to fight them!"
Even a supreme being who has fallen from the realm of the Emperor through self-inflicted wounds remains proud.
The ancient Heavenly Court's generals may seem powerful, but in the eyes of the Supreme Being, they are still mere ants.
Even for Chuan Ying, who had become a half-step supreme being, it was the same; only by paying a price could they kill him.
But the consequences would be severe, and they were unwilling to bear them.
However, they could not allow the Heavenly Court to continue developing. Who knew if, in some future era, someone from the Heavenly Court's remnants would be able to attain enlightenment?
Therefore, in suppressing and destroying the Heavenly Court, those forbidden zones that participated in the siege of the Emperor also contributed to this battle.
"I wonder if this will affect other ancient planets with life?"
"It shouldn't be that bad!?"
"Over the past few hundred years, many outstanding talents have risen to prominence, and there are quite a few who have reached the peak of the Ninth Heaven. If they were to unite, apart from our Dao Court, no other force could rival them."
"Even in the forbidden zones of life, it's impossible?"
"Indeed, the supreme beings within the forbidden zone are extremely protective of their lives. Even for them, a battle against the current Ninth Heaven Realm experts carries considerable risk!"
Discussions are taking place across the universe. This great war involves too many grudges between powerful races and is a continuation of the great war at the end of the mythical era.
Some of the strongest individuals began to unite, not wanting to participate in the bloody battle between the two sides.
Many people also went to the Taoist temple to seek Jiang Ling's protection.
"Wu Xiang, Pan Dao, take your men to the edge of the universe and tell them that the war can only take place there, and will not interfere with the ancient life-bearing planets!"
Just then, Jiang Ling spoke up and made a decision.
Jiang Ling's bottom line is that they cannot be allowed to invade the ancient life star.
Otherwise, if they go berserk, who knows what kind of mess they'll make of this universe.
After the great battle at the end of the mythical era, the spiritual energy in the human world is far less abundant than it was in the mythical era, and the entire universe is gradually declining.
The original human realm was a shattered world after the great war of the ancient times, with its laws of heaven and earth completely broken.
Although it was preserved, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were also heading towards decay.
The secret realm cultivation method created by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor is perhaps the most perfect cultivation method in all the ages.
Without the need for external assistance, one can cultivate oneself, which greatly lowers the threshold for spiritual practice.
However, this would result in a massive number of cultivators being born in the universe, which would be a burden on the universe.
During the chaotic ancient times, there were still cultivators who could resolve the issues between heaven and earth and give back to the universe. In addition, the number of powerful cultivators was limited, which ensured a virtuous cycle.
However, although cultivators today focus on cultivating themselves, they still plunder spiritual herbs and spiritual energy from the universe. Moreover, compared to the chaotic ancient times, cultivators today are even more domineering in their plundering of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Meanwhile, all those who cultivate themselves in the world are seeking immortality and enlightenment, so who would think about giving back to heaven and earth and repairing the environment of the universe?
Moreover, with the increase in the number of cultivators, the conflicts have also increased. The world today is not like the chaotic ancient times. With the support of rules, a battle between saintly cultivators can shatter stars, let alone battles between cultivators at higher levels.
The battle between supreme beings was earth-shattering, causing the universe to collapse. After the great war, countless ancient planets with life were completely destroyed, and the destruction to the universe was simply too great.
Even though the fragmented will of the universe is slowly repairing the world, the speed of repair is far from keeping up with the speed of destruction.
Moreover, the World Tree is indispensable for repairing this universe, but in the present world, let alone a supreme treasure like the World Tree, even the elixir of immortality is extremely rare.
The World Tree can automatically evolve the myriad paths of heaven and earth, reconstructing the shattered endless universe into a great realm.
However, the World Tree is such a rare and precious treasure that it is extremely difficult to find in the world. Even a quasi-World Tree might not necessarily reside here in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths today.
The best time to repair the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was during the Chaotic Ancient Era, but due to various reasons, we missed the World Tree back then.
According to his calculations, this world will completely fall into ruin in millions of years, and even cultivation may not be possible then!
Jiang Ling wanted to change the fate of this world and try to repair it, so naturally she didn't want to see more ancient life-bearing stars perish in the great war.
"Yes, Dao Master!"
Upon hearing Jiang Ling's words, Qin Wuxiang, Pan Dao, and the others responded in unison.
"Remember, you don't need to get involved in either of their battles. Just stop them from destroying the ancient planet!"
Before leaving, Jiang Ling gave him another piece of advice.
