Chapter 431: The Move That Shakes the Heavens and Earth
The two sides clashed in an instant!
“A bunch of ants, annihilate!”
From the Dugu Family, Saint Emperor Dugu Maizu, at this moment exuded a heaven-reaching aura, unleashing a terrifying power!
With a swing of his sword, a vast royal clan was directly vanquished in a flash!
“We stand here, you shall not advance a single step!”
Lin Zhentian’s body erupted with tens of thousands of talismans, overwhelming hundreds of thousands from the Imperial Allied Forces, instantly turning them to ash, among which were figures of Saint Monarch level!
“The roar of the giant dragon, invincible under heaven!”
Qin Tianshi, mounted on a flying dragon, whose roar resounded through the heavens, instantly causing several Saint Kings to pale and perish with a flick of a finger!
This was the horrifying might of a Saint Emperor; without a rival of equal standing, a single emperor could slaughter all beings in the world!
“Three humans, mere ants, do you really think you can be invincible?”A Great Saint from the Swallowing Sky Bird Clan suddenly bellowed, holding a genuine feather from the Ancestor Emperor of Tuntian Que!
In an instant, a terrifying shadow of a Swallowing Sky Bird appeared!
The last vestige of the Ancestor Emperor of the Swallowing Sky Bird Clan, now reemerged!
“Both from the imperial lineage, yet you dare to act arrogantly?”
A Quasi-Emperor from the Peacock Clan sneered while activating the Emperor Weapon Peacock Feather, instantly resurrecting the Ancestor Emperor of the Peacock Clan!
“Compete with Emperor level strength? Does the Human Race even qualify?”
From the Devouring Heaven Python Clan, a spear eighteen feet long immediately erupted in a thick black mist, transforming into a black-robed man of extraordinary presence!
The Ancestor Emperor of the Devouring Heaven Python Clan!
At that moment, almost every imperial clan utilized its most powerful legacy!
The power left behind by the Ancestor Emperors!
Instantly, one after another, terrifying figures appeared in the Sky Domain.
The Centipede Clan of Tuntian…
The Golden Crow Great Emperor…
The Yaksha Great Emperor…
Saint Emperors, in any era, are as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns, their prestige echoing through the ages, invincible in their time.
But now, twenty-one had appeared!
Twenty-one Saint Emperors, the accumulation of countless eons from the clans of the Immortal Domain!
“Has the end of days come for the Yin Realm this life…?”
“To awaken a shadow from the river of time, and once more exterminate the Human Race… Haha, interesting!”
“Upon my return, I shall be unmatched in the world!”
The twenty-one Saint Emperors attacked simultaneously!
Instantly, Dugu Maizu, Qin Tianshi, and Lin Zhentian all had their expressions drastically change!
“Invoke the Ancestor Emperor!”
Ji Taixuan, holding the Xuanyuan Sword, looked up to the heavens and bellowed!
A shadow from within the Xuanyuan Sword stepped out instantly!
That was a Saint Emperor clad in white, ethereal and carefree, bearing an invincible stance!
“The last shadow left in the Yin Realm has come to partake in this final battle…”
Ji Xuanyuan glanced at the scene and slightly nodded when his eyes fell upon Lu Rang, saying,
“Has that predecessor from this era finally decided to take action?”
With a look of anticipation on his face, he then made a sweeping cut with his sword at the twenty-one Saint Emperors!
Fearless!
Unyielding!
“Ji Xuanyuan, how bold of you!”
“Never seen in the river of time, today I shall extinguish your shadow, to show you that you are not invincible!”
The twenty-one Saint Emperors charged forth.
The Sky Domain trembled, space collapsed.
Ji Xuanyuan’s invincible sword was blocked!
In a flash, the white-garbed Xuanyuan was nearly surrounded!
Even Xuanyuan the Great Emperor, with his incredible talent, was now in grave danger!
Because to become a Saint Emperor, one must have been the strongest in the river of time, once invincible during an era.
Just at that moment, above the Sky Domain, suddenly a terrifying battle flag tore through the sky, cutting directly into this space!
It was a tattered battle flag, fluttering in the wind, yet exuding a supreme imperial authority, stained with various types of blood, both imperial blood and the foreign blood scented with the aura of the Yang Realm!
Upon the arrival of the battle flag, the several Saint Emperors besieging Ji Xuanyuan were instantly forced back!
“It’s that woman…”
“Jiang Xue!”
“Her battle flag… she actually survived to this era…”
Many among the twenty-one Saint Emperors changed color.
In ancient times, Jiang Xue was known as the Blood Emperor by different races, for she rose from mountains of corpses and seas of blood, once slaughtered through the entire Immortal Domain, silencing the ancient emperors of her era!
The battle flag arrived first!
And following it, a woman in white had already stepped into this world.
She moved lightly as if walking on waves, arriving elegantly, clad in snow-white clothing, resembling a fairy from the heavens!
It was Jiang Xue!
As she entered the fray, an intense murderous aura rose from the ground, with countless bones sweeping forward!
Those were the followers who once fought beside the Snow Emperor, though long dead and turned to bones, still bore a will to fight, coming to join the battle!
Below the Sky Domain, Jiang Xue’s expression remained indifferent. With a simple gesture, the blood-colored battle flag was already in her hands.
“I once dreamed of slaughtering all different races, a pity I fell short… today, just perfect!”
Jiang Xue spoke indifferently.
“Futile, seek death!”
“This era, both emperors of the Human Race must die!”
The group of Saint Emperors roared.
Jiang Xue, holding the battle flag, stepped into the battlefield.
“Haha, today I stand shoulder to shoulder with the Snow Emperor, fighting to exhaustion against the ancient Saint Emperors, oh how delightful!”
Ji Xuanyuan laughed heartily, his sword intent soaring like a rainbow!
The two of them, charged towards the twenty-one Saint Emperors!
“We may… not be on par with the Ancestor Emperors of the Human Race, but, we possess the heart to die in battle!”
Dugu Maizu exclaimed, as he and the other two Saint Emperors plunged into the fray!
The battle of Saint Emperors had begun!
They moved directly from the Southern Territory of the Immortal Domain, slaying their way into the boundless Void Sea Domain.
The entire Void Sea Domain was nearly boiling, fracturing, the eternal river of cause and effect nearly disturbed.
Within the Imperial Allied Forces, aboard a massive ship, the nine Emperors of the Nine Emperor Mountain had yet to make a move!
The moment Jiang Xue appeared, Jiang Hanshuang’s eyes brimmed with unparalleled hatred.
Her gaze pierced through the endless space, fixated on the battle group where Jiang Xue was!
The nine emperor-level characters didn’t move because they were waiting to hunt and kill Jiang Xue and Ji Xuanyuan!
Meanwhile, apart from the emperor-level battles, the two armies had completely intertwined!
The Human Race Army was almost engulfed by the Imperial Allied Forces!
“Take action, everyone, I can’t wait anymore!”
Wu Dade’s eyes shone as he directly charged toward the Imperial Clan army.
“Take this, the feast of your young master!”
He bellowed, charging directly at an old saint, sitting down hard on him!
“Brat!”
The old saint resisted with all his might, but, in the next moment, he was directly squashed into a mist of blood!
The different races around were shocked and immediately surrounded Wu Dade to attack him!
“Fight!”
Dugu Yuqing, wielding the Phoenix Sky Brush, was suddenly before the Imperial Allied Forces.
“Bright moonlight before my bed!”
Dugu Yuqing lifted his brush and penned a line of poetry!
This poem contained endless sword intent.
The three saints at the forefront were instantly slashed into a blood mist!
“My master is compassionate; this little monk has come to deliver salvation to all!”
Qing Chen stepped forward, smiled faintly, and swept his broom!
In an instant, a terrifying hurricane spanning ten thousand li roared in, mixed with horrific spiritual energy, like a tornado, directly covering tens of thousands!
Among them, a dozen or so saints, even Saint Monarchs, were swept up and let out miserable screams!
“Hualong Wushuang!”
The Dragon Soul burst forth from Long Zixuan’s body as he punched down, directly enveloping three Saint Monarchs!
The three Saint Monarchs were livid.
“A mere saint dares to strike at a Saint Monarch…”
They scoffed, but in the next moment, all three fell into shock and fear!
Together, they couldn’t withstand this punch!
Three Saint Monarchs were blasted into a mist of blood!
“With the changes of heaven and earth, the Xuanhuang Qi shall serve me!”
Celestial Master Lin Jiuzheng calmly exhibited his great magical power, drawing in endless Earth’s Qi from the land of the Southern Territory like a soaring dragon.
He channeled this invincible force of the Earth and fiercely struck down a Saint King!
“How is this possible!”
Disbelief filled the old eyes of the Saint King as he exerted all his strength.
But even with his profound cultivation, he couldn’t resist!
He coughed up blood unstoppably and fell on the spot!
Little Kirin stood on Lin Jiu’s shoulder, occasionally letting out childish cries, swinging its hooves to chase away numerous omens.
“Tsk, tsk, look at you all, so environmentally unfriendly!”
Lu Rang shook his head.
Behind him, a sky-covering grass seemed to be able to slice through sun, moon, and stars; countless blades of grass cut into the Imperial Clan army. Saints were skewered by green blades of grass, and then their endless blood was absorbed!
Dozens of saints and Saint Monarchs turned into dried corpses and fell!
The grass shone with a green light, casting a shadow over the heads of countless members of the Imperial Clan, striking terror into their hearts!
“Ding!”
Amidst the cacophony of the battlefield, a clear and melodious sound of a zither suddenly echoed!
This zither sound traversed the entire battlefield, with countless musical notes flying out.
In an instant, the notes became an ocean of killing intent, as if thousands of troops were attacking, as if a godly demon army was roaring!
The ferocity reached the heavens, and myriad terrifying creatures appeared in this melody—Qiong Qi, Bi Fang, and other lethal beings devoured everything strong in the field!
On Nan Feng’s shoulder, the white Little Wolf Qianqian felt her own surging blood ignite completely along with Nan Feng’s melody!
She issued a clear and melodious wolf howl!
In an instant, her howl resonated with Nan Feng’s zither music, and amidst the countless notes, a myriad of Celestial Wolves appeared.
Qianqian leapt into the sea of notes and began a massacre!
Even saints and Saint Monarchs, upon touching these terrifying notes, died instantly!
As the seven of them took action, the dense Imperial Allied Forces were instantly cleared of a swath!
In the blink of an eye, several million beings of a different race died at their hands, including hundreds of saints and dozens of Saint Monarchs!
With just seven people, their lethality nearly surpassed the entire Human Race Army!
At this moment, numerous Imperial Clan powerhouses noticed them!
“These seven are strange, kill them!”
“Kill!”
“Eliminate these seven first!”
In a blink, tens of millions of troops swept over!
Among them, there were even Saint King level characters leading the charge!
Dugu Yuqing and the others felt more exhilarated than ever as they charged towards the millions of troops!
But before they could clash with the army of millions, countless black and white lines of chess pieces instantly covered the entire Sky Vault!
Tens of millions of soldiers were penetrated by these lines!
“Boom, boom, boom!”
It was like an incredibly grand fireworks display that filled half of the Sky Vault, bursting simultaneously, turning into an ocean of blood!
The army of millions was obliterated!
Only a few Saint Kings remained alive, their bodies covered in the blood of their kin, their old eyes filled with terror!
What kind of eerie chess lines were these?
“Damn it, Jiang Li, you have no honor!”
Wu Dade cursed on the spot!
“Jiang Li shouldn’t have come!”
Dugu Yuqing was speechless; he hadn’t even finished writing ‘Quiet Night Thoughts.’
Qing Chen clenched his teeth, adding, “I agree, we shouldn’t have used weapons of mass destruction first!”
While they complained, they dived into the chessboard and surrounded those few Saint Kings.
As saints, they battled with the Saint Kings!
And at that moment, under a peaceful expanse of the Sky Vault, Jiang Li looked innocent. He glanced at the vivid purple shadow flitting across the Sky Vault, his expression complex, musing,
“Don’t blame me. If I don’t act now, once Senior Sister Zi Ling finishes her drawing… none of us will have anything left to kill!”
With that, he gritted his teeth, and endless black and white chess lines spread across the sky!
…
