The western world has arrived.
Feelings of fear and panic permeated the atmosphere in the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect. It was impossible to remain unbothered. During these years, everyone in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms was discussing about this army from the western world. Everywhere the western world army passed by, the people there would be ‘delivered’ and decided to join the buddhist path. No one could obstruct them. This army grew increasingly in size. No one expected that the western world would actually be able to do this. It was clear now that they truly wanted to unify the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms and reign supreme under the nine heavens.
It was rumored that even cultivators weren’t able to resist the effect of the buddhist chants absolutely. Many cultivators decided to convert to Buddhism and grew as devout as the buddhist cultivators. What heaven-defying mighty force was this? This was simply incredible. Who could obstruct them?
And now, the direction the western world army was heading, was precisely for their Heaven Vault. Clearly, the Heaven Vault was the final destination of the western paradise. They wanted to obtain the control rights to the Heaven Vault and continued to make everyone in the world submit. From then on, there would only be one official power in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms and that power would be the Buddhist Sect of the western paradise.
Every step that was taken by the western world army caused the hearts of people of the world to tremble. Everyone understood that their actions would concern the future situation of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.
In the past, many people felt that the Heaven Vault had a high chance of winning and could become the future supreme leader of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. But after the godking of the western world returned and as he brought his army along as he headed east, the people of the world discovered that they were wrong. It has been countless years since a godking has appeared. Just his appearance alone, even before there were any fights, his methods have already caused the world to tremble.
The western world has already entered the Heaven Region and came to a place roughly ten thousand miles away from Boundless City. They were currently advancing towards Boundless City at a very fast pace.
After some time, the western world army arrived at the borders of Boundless City and began to move into the Boundless Sea Region.
Many pieces of news were circulated to the Heaven Vault. The members of the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect was extremely worried. Qin Wentian finally left his seclusion. Right now, everyone was gathered in the floating palace where he stayed in. All his friends and loved ones have arrived. The familiar faces looked at him staunchly. Clearly, everyone knew what they were going to face.
“Father, mother.” Qin Wentian called out to Qin Yuanfeng and Luoshen Qianxue. Qin Yuanfeng’s expression was calm. Luoshen Qianxue’s beautiful eyes flickered with a hint of worry. Qin Kexin stood behind them, but her gaze was resolute.
“Wentian, the western paradise is a huge threat. Yue Changkong and Che Hou might take this chance to attack us as well.” Luoshen Chuan spoke. The five demon sovereigns of the Demon God Mountain stood beside him. Currently, their auras were clearly more extraordinary than before. In fact, there weren’t merely five demon gods in the Demon God Mountain now. There were still several demon gods standing behind them. These were all the demon gods that rose up in the recent years.
“We shall fight them all then.” Jun Mengchen’s voice was cold, radiating a shocking battle intent. After he lost to Che Hou, he went into closed-door seclusion and he clearly had another transformation during these years, becoming much stronger than before.
“I’ll devour them all.” Little Rascal roared in a low voice. The reason why he was estranged from his parents was precisely all thanks to the godking of the western world, the Buddha Sovereign.
“Battle!” The battle intent from Qi Yu surged up into the skies. The members of the Battle Saint Tribe, who stood behind him, also began to radiate shocking battle intent. Many of them were already deities.
At the side, the Southern Phoenix Matriarch, Darknotth Immortal Emperor, Evergreen Immortal Emperor, Matriarch Ji, Bai Qing and the others and their subordinates were all present. The army of deities from the Heaven Vault have already made their preparations and were ready for a battle.
Qin Wentian glanced at the familiar faces. He had no way to anticipate what the ending of this battle would be. He could only do his best and protect their families should they fall.
“In this battle, there might be people who die.” Qin Wentian glanced at everyone, speaking with a heavy tone. It wasn’t that he wanted to bring down the morale. But, this was the truth.
The eyes of everyone twitched. Qi Yu laughed, “We have followed the Saint Lord for so many years, all the way from the immortal emperor realm to our current realm, allowing us to taste the glory of becoming a deity. Even if we have to die in this war of supremacy, it’s worth it. We have no regrets.”
The Southern Phoenix Matriarch smiled. She was also extremely magnificent and beautiful, her smile caused her beauty to intensify as she calmly spoke, “Wentian, there’s no need to say anything more about our relationship. Although the Southern Phoenix Clan belonged to me, it also belongs to you. If I was younger and was of the same generation as you, I will pursue you for sure. Once, you gave up so much for the Southern Phoenix Clan. In that case, let the Southern Phoenix Clan fight for the Heaven Vault as well as our future today.”
“Yaoyue, your beauty is exceptional. If you pursue me, I will definitely not be able to withstand your charm.” Qin Wentian laughed carefreely after he heard that. There was truly no need to say anything more given his relationship with the Southern Phoenix Clan.
“If I die in battle, Wentian, help me take good care of Youhuang.” The Darknorth Immortal Emperor spoke, glaring at Qin Wentian. Even up until today, Qin Wentian has yet to give Beiming Youhuang a status. Who in the Heaven Vault didn’t know of his daughter’s feelings towards Qin Wentian?
“Right.” Qin Wentian nodded heavily.
“Us old fellows from Azure Mystic actually have a chance to participate in the war for supremacy of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. It can already be considered an honor.” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor laughed.
“My Demon God Mountain shall gamble for our future. If we win, our Demon God Mountain shall become the royals of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms from now on. Wentian, even if us old fellows die in the war, I hope you can make our wish come true.” The Heaven Devouring Demon Sovereign laughed.
“Senior, please rest at ease. If I claim supremacy, I will definitely ensure that the Demon God Mountain will become one of the royal branches of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.” Qin Wentian nodded. The various demon sovereigns of the Demon God Mountain’s eyes flashed with sharpness. If they won, they would become kings of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. This would be completely different from the past where they were merely one of the hegemonic powers in the Desolate Region. For all generations from now on, the Demon God Mountain shall be one of the royal branches, part of the core of the Heaven Vault. They all had no doubts about Qin Wentian’s character.
“What a good bet. Wentian, our Qiankun Sect and Nine Mystical Heavenly Palace are willing to bet as well. Let all the unhappiness of the past be washed away in this battle.” The Qiankun Sect Leader spoke.
“No problem. If we win this battle, regardless of whether all of you survive or not. All the powers here, your families and clans shall become part of the new royalty of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms in the future. We shall rule the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms together.”
“I don’t care about ruling the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. I only want Wentian gege to be safe. If something happens to you, even if we win the war, many people wouldn’t want to live anymore.” Bai Qing’s beautiful eyes turned to Qin Wentian. She didn’t want glory, she only wanted him to be safe.
“Silly lass.” Qin Wentian gently stroked Bai Qing’s hair. In this life, he owed many things to many people. This little sister of his, Bai Qing, was undoubtedly one of those he owed the most things to.”
Qing`er, Qingcheng and Ye Qianyu all quietly stood beside Qin Wentian, they didn’t say anything. Qin Wentian didn’t want them to join the battle but how could they not participate? They had all already vowed to live or die together in this battle.
Purgatory and Jialan Qiuyue stood behind Qin Wentian, silently watching all of these.
Qin Wentian turned his gaze back. His foster father Qin Chuan, Ye Qianyun, his sisters Qin Yao, Luo Huan and many other loved ones were all present here. All these familiar faces were looking at him and there was a trace of nervousness in their eyes. Everyone knew what Qin Wentian had to face in the battle. Despite the fact that he was already very powerful, no one dared to say that the Heaven Vault would be the ultimate victor for sure. Their opponents were just too terrifying.
“In the past, how terrifying was that battle in Azure Mystic? However, Wentian could even survive then. And for this battle, given Wentian’s current strength, why is there a need to fear a fight?” At this moment, Bai Wuya spoke. He thought back to that miserable battle in the Evergreen Immortal Empire back then as he continued, “Back then in Azure Mystic, there were multiple wars but Wentian claimed supremacy in the end, and established the Heaven Empyrean Palace. People of the world would head there and pay their respects daily. Today, he shall lead us and claim supremacy for this battle in the Heaven Vault.”
“Senior brother Bai is right. This battle is for supremacy, let’s see who in the world can challenge us!”
The experts here all felt their blood surging.
“Move out.” Qin Wentian turned and headed towards the exit of the Heaven Vault. The experts all followed after him, their eyes were filled with determination.
Many people stared at the imposing back of Qin Wentian. They could tell that he was prepared to die out there, he had no regrets even if he couldn’t return.
The waves of the great river would all eventually flow into the ocean. There were so many legendary characters throughout time. Why was there a need to fear a battle? Why was there a need to fear death.
…
The people of Boundless City have long left. It was now an empty city. They gathered at the sea shore of the Boundless Seas, and hovered in its surroundings, waiting for the western world army to arrive. None of them had any thoughts of obstructing the western world army. All of them have heard stories of how people would instantly be converted upon hearing the buddhic chants.
Although they were pretty far away, the people around the Boundless Sea Region could already see that gigantic ancient buddha leading the way. It was too shocking. They couldn’t see the buddha’s head and could only see its body.
The sounds of buddhic chants began to drift over. Many experts sealed their six senses, not wanting to be influenced. But as for those weaker cultivators, they had long relocated far away. They didn’t dare to remain behind. In a battle of such great scale, the boundary of the aftershocks would definitely be extremely vast. If they stayed behind, they might die. It was just too dangerous.
Naturally, there were also some who were unwilling to leave. They wanted to bear witness to this historical battle that would rarely happen even through the different eras. In fact, there was never a battle of such scale in the history of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. Maybe, the world-ending battle of Ancient Azure Mystic back then was comparable. And if this battle could decide the future ruler of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, its influence would then surpass the world-ending battle from the past.
Who wouldn’t want to witness such a historical battle?
Those experts who had some capabilities were all reluctant to leave. Although their lives might be in danger, they still wanted to watch this battle.
And at this moment, the sounds of the buddhic chants grew lower and lower, no longer resounding out. It seemed like the buddhist cultivators intentionally ceased to chant but the golden holy light didn’t fade in the slightest. It enveloped the sky and continued spreading forward.
Even Boundless City seemed extremely tiny in comparison. The golden buddhic light easily enveloped it.
Finally, the western world army occupied Boundless City. The buddhas from the western paradise who were in the lead also arrived at the shore area. They then halted and stared in the direction of the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect.
That place was the purpose of their trip here. Just like what people of the world have guessed, the western world wanted to overtake the Heaven Vault first.
In another direction, Yue Changkong’s forces also arrived, he led many of the past hegemonic powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, as well as the deities from there. Clearly, he was here to join forces with the western world. In Yue Changkong’s eyes, a cold smile could be seen. Today has finally arrived. He has waited for this day for a very long time.
In the sky, a bright beam of light descended, exuding a terrifyingly sharp aura that arced through the skies, wanting to split the waters of the sea region apart. A golden figure than appeared. He created a path through the boundless seas, leading straight to the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect.
This figure was none other than Che Hou. He stood in the air and his gaze was terrifying to the extreme as he stared ahead.
Just like what many people in the Heaven Vault have guessed, their enemies have gathered today. Also, it wasn’t simply the western world. The strongest powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms have all gathered here today in the Boundless Sea Region, preparing to attack the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect!
