Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

When the Carp Emperor arrived at this place, he immediately alarmed the garrison commander responsible for guarding here.

"The Nine Layers Heaven, who dares to intrude!"

A garrison commander in the Half-step Heavenly Venerate Realm shouted angrily.

But when the golden flow of light dispersed, a golden koi appeared before him, causing the other party to be taken aback, a look of shock on his face.

A koi?

But he wouldn't consider the one before him to be an ordinary spiritual beast.

Simply because the aura of the other party was terrifyingly profound, making him feel as if he were facing Longevity.

At this moment.

The Carp Emperor spoke: "I am the National Guardian Immortal Beast personally appointed by the Immortal Emperor, ordered today to guard the Nine Layers Heaven Star River!"

As soon as the words fell.

One could see an Immortal Light emerging from the Carp Emperor's body, then transforming into a Dharma Decree. Upon seeing this Dharma Decree, the Half-step Heavenly Venerate guarding the Nine Layers Heaven immediately bowed respectfully.

"So it's the National Guardian Immortal Beast in person, my apologies for the offense!"

Immediately, the other party stepped aside to let him pass.

Only to see the Carp Emperor transform into a stream of light, merging directly into the Star River.

In the next moment.

He manifested his true Immortal Beast form, the once palm-sized koi instantly transformed into a colossus ten thousand feet in size, swimming within the Star River. The occasional ripples it stirred held the power to obliterate stars.

This scene naturally filled many Immortal Dynasty cultivators with dread.

Longevity Heavenly Venerate!

Who would have thought, that now a koi could attain the Great Tao of Longevity.

However, some cultivators with vast knowledge recalled old legends from ancient times.

"It is said that millions of years ago, a golden koi from the Immortal Dynasty's Imperial Palace transcended the Longevity Divine Tribulation and reached the Heavenly Venerate Realm. Many thought this was a fabrication, but now it seems to be true!"

Upon hearing this, many cultivators felt another jolt in their hearts, and their awe for the Immortal Dynasty grew exponentially.

If even a koi could reach Longevity, the foundation of the Immortal Dynasty is truly astonishing.

...

Xuanzhen Immortal Domain.

Within the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect.

There rested an Immortal Palace hall, seemingly standing firm through the ages, and a Sect Elder hurriedly arrived.

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

"What is the matter?"

Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen's expression was indifferent as he looked at the cultivator before him. As he slowly spoke, the void of the entire great hall seemed to have the Great Tao emerge, and the oppressive Dao Rhythm shook as well.

The elder respectfully reported: "News has come that the Blood Shadow God has fallen, and the Blood Shadow Divine Country has perished!"

"What!?"

Upon hearing this, Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen's indifferent demeanor abruptly changed, and a cold glint emerged in his eyes.

At that instant.

The pressure in the great hall intensified.

The elder silently endured this pressure and responded truthfully: "This news has spread through many Immortal Domains, and several forces have taken action, intending to seize the many Immortal Domains of the Blood Shadow Divine Country."

"Can it be determined which force caused the fall of the Blood Shadow Divine Country?"

"It is said to be a force named the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty!"

"Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty?"

Numerous thoughts flashed in the mind of Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen, but none contained any record of the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty.

He had lived through countless ages, and had some knowledge of the top Human Clan's forces, but this Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty was completely unfamiliar.

The elder stated: "It is heard that the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty is a force that emerged from the Immortal Domain under the jurisdiction of the Blood Shadow Divine Country, but the roots of this force remain unknown!"

"To kill the Blood Shadow God and destroy the Blood Shadow Divine Country, this Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty is certainly not simple!"

Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen had calmed down by now, but his expression remained serious.

He clearly understood how powerful the Blood Shadow God was.

As the boundary between two clans, the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect had clashed with the Blood Shadow Divine Country on more than one occasion, and Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen had even met that Blood Shadow God.

However.

Just one encounter.

And Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen was defeated.

That battle of disastrous defeat.

He remembered every bit vividly.

In Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen's view, the Blood Shadow God's strength, even if not yet in the Eight Tribulation Heavenly Venerable Realm, was at least at the peak of the Seven Tribulations, or such strength wouldn't be possible.

The supposed Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty's ability to kill such a powerful Blood Shadow God, to destroy the entire Blood Shadow Divine Country, was indicative of their means.

However—

After the shock.

Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen quickly made a decision.

"Since the Blood Shadow Divine Country is destroyed, the sect must not miss this opportunity. Relay my command, the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect must give their all, and secure as many Immortal Domains as possible!"

"Understood!"

The elder dutifully accepted the order.

Subsequently.

Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen waved his hand, dismissing the elder.

"The Blood Shadow Divine Country... Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty, no matter what, the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect must take its share of this opportunity!"

After all, he knew, under the command of the entire Blood Shadow Divine Country were three hundred sixty thousand Immortal Domains, even absorbing just one percent would greatly strengthen the sect.

As a major force of the Human Clan, the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect ruled only over three thousand Immortal Domains, not even comparable to the Blood Shadow Divine Country.

With such a rare opportunity now, Heavenly Venerate Xuanzhen naturally wouldn't let it slip by.

At the same time.

News of the Blood Shadow Divine Country's fall spread everywhere.

Just like the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect, various forces deployed their armies, heading towards the territory of the Blood Shadow Divine Country.

Three hundred sixty thousand Immortal Domains.

Enough to drive most forces crazy.

Even if unable to engulf all Immortal Domains, securing some of them would be an immense opportunity.

Meanwhile.

The name of the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty.

Also began to circulate.

Many forces were secretly probing who exactly this Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty was, capable of destroying the Blood Shadow Divine Country.

...

Mountain and Sea Sacred Land.

Inside the great hall.

Many high-ranking figures of the Sacred Land appeared there.

As the Saint Heir, Gu Xianlin was also present, prominent among them.

The look of satisfaction appeared in the eyes of the Mountain and Sea Heavenly Venerate as he gazed at his disciple.

The fact that he could attain the Great Tao at such a pace was something that few even among Human Clan's Heavenly Venerates could match.

This being the case.

The Mountain and Sea Heavenly Venerate had no reason to be dissatisfied.

For this reason.

All other powerful figures in the Mountain and Sea Sacred Land knew about it, but they turned a blind eye, not meaning to obstruct anything.

When so many of the high-levels of the Sacred Land had gathered together.

The Mountain and Sea Heavenly Venerate slowly began: "There is news from the front line that the Blood Shadow Divine Country is destroyed, and now the three hundred sixty thousand Immortal Domains have all become unclaimed territories.

"What, the Blood Shadow Divine Country is destroyed!?"

A Longevity Heavenly Venerate had a face full of shock.

They were certainly familiar with the reputation of the Blood Shadow Divine Country.

Although Blood Shadow Divine Country was not part of the Ziwei Immortal Court's war line, many of the Heavenly Venerates of the Mountain and Sea Sacred Land, as part of the Ziwei Immortal Court, were not unfamiliar with it.

Gu Xianlin couldn't help but ask: "I heard that the Blood Shadow God had strength at least at the peak of the Seven Tribulations. Do we know which force was responsible for destroying the Blood Shadow Divine Country?"

"It is said to be a force called the Mystic Sky Immortal Dynasty!"

When the Mountain and Sea Heavenly Venerate finished speaking, Gu Xianlin was stunned for a moment.
