Chapter 1046: Chapter 839 Rolling Snowball 2

Ziwei Heaven of the Centre, where a few Emperors, invited by the Ziwei Emperor, and many immortals proficient in the art of strategics, all displayed deep furrows in their brows,

At this point there was no need for further calculation. Under Li Xuan’s command, 47 thousand battleships and more than five million troops no longer attempted to conceal their movements.

They were making their way through the Infinite Taixu, advancing resolutely.

What was daunting was that nearly fifteen percent of this great army was armored, amounting to one and a half million armored soldiers.

"We need only twenty days! If someone could hold him back for twenty days, we could gather our troops and engage in a battle to the death! We could crush them with thrice their numbers of troops and horses."

"Next is the progenitor of earthly immortals, Immortal Lord Zhen Yuan. He assisted the Saint during the battle of the three heavenly generations but was severely wounded by the First Emperor, losing the Earth Script. Now, he is merely lingering on. He solely holds the Heaven of Wuzhuang Temple, a territory that is fairly expansive, spanning over two thousand li with six million civilians, capable of deploying over three hundred thousand troops."

"Can he withstand them?"

"You’d have to ask this great Immortal if he’s willing to confront Emperor Xuanhuang. This progenitor of earthly immortals has always been cunning."

"The key issue is those electromagnetic guns crafted by mortals, which hardly any protective array can withstand. ’Mengzhang East Spirit Heaven’ belongs to the Azure Dragon, yet it was defeated by a single shot. What does Immortal Lord Zhen Yuan have to withstand Emperor Xuanhuang?"

Emperor Ziwei was also not very optimistic in his heart. He guessed Immortal Lord Zhen Yuan would most likely choose to submit.

As expected, merely half a day later, news spread that the Heaven of Wuzhuang Temple had surrendered, and Immortal Lord Zhen Yuan was forced to submit to Emperor Xuanhuang.

Li Xuan’s numerous Taixu Battleships blasted Wuzhuang Temple, collapsing half of the palatial estate.

The progenitor of earthly immortals, Immortal Lord Zhen Yuan, had originally intended to flee into the Infinite Taixu to avoid the sharp edge but eventually considered his disciples and grandchildren and personally surrendered.

"Who’s next? I remember it’s the Three-eyed Spirit Officer Ma Sheng and Marshal Zhaogong?"

Speaking of these two, Immortal Master Miaodao Yang Jian and Emperor Gouchen could not help but shake their heads.

Three-eyed Spirit Officer Ma Sheng, also known as Devaraja of Light, was once a chief minister of Haotian, only inferior to Zhenwu, and regarded the Saint as his mortal foe.

How he would decide was obvious without asking.

As for Marshal Zhaogong, he was Zhao Gongming from the Divine Enthronement era, holding the position of God of Wealth, and thus greatly revered by the populace.

But his mana was far from what it used to be, and he had only over six hundred thousand troops and could barely protect himself in the Infinite Taixu.

Emperor Ziwei held no hope for these two, and the situation unfolded just as they had anticipated.

Three-eyed Spirit Officer Ma Sheng submitted, Marshal Zhaogong submitted.

The God of Wealth even surrendered his entire treasury, offering up 570 thousand sets of Lengyin Armor and over 30 thousand skilled artisans to Li Xuan.

By this time, Li Xuan’s forces had swelled to over six million troops and 63 thousand battleships.

Merely a moment later, even graver news was relayed.

The Four Great Heavenly Masters amassed 29 thousand battleships and over three million warriors, meeting up with Zhao Gongming’s ’Wuliang Jinyin Heaven’ and Li Xuan’s massive army.

The so-called Four Great Heavenly Masters refer to the four supremely skilled individuals of the Zhengyi Sect—’Xiangmo Venerable Zhang Daoling,’ ’Immortal Master Chongying Ge Xuan,’ ’Immortal Master Shengong Miaoji Xu Xun,’ and ’Divine Venerable Xuanfeng Yongzhen.’

Each of them possessed mana rivaling that of an Emperor.

Supported by the mortal realm, these four had established themselves in the Outer Taixu for seven thousand years, assisting and protecting each other, and their collective power was comparable to the forces under Emperor Gouchen’s command.

"This is unexpected yet reasonable. Zhang Daoling and Li Xuan are related by marriage, with a younger generation of Heavenly Masters consisting of one being Emperor Xuanhuang’s consort and the other his illegitimate son. As for the other three, their disciples and grandchildren are all held in Li Xuan’s grasp."

"Heh~"

With a ’Heavenly Eye’ observation of the Outer Taixu, Immortal Master Miaodao Yang Jian suddenly uttered a meaningful chuckle, "This is a feat akin to trapping a dragon."

Seated at a lower position at Ziwei’s side, the Changsheng Emperor of the South had remained silent but now abruptly rose, striding toward the palace gate, "Ridiculous! While we are contemplating how to surround them, they have already harbored intentions to sweep through the universe and unify the heavens of Middle Earth."

Seeing this, Emperor Gouchen’s eyes slightly lifted, "Is it that Taishi is feeling fear and thinking of retreating?"

The Changsheng Emperor of the South immediately turned around, shooting him a cold glare, and then tore through the Void, leaving the grand hall.

Her voice, however, still lingered in the place, "I, for one, am considering the greater good and will not stoop to argue with a base person like you for now. But I have taken note of your words, Gouchen. When I return, I shall mobilize a large army in Guangzeng Heaven of the South and look for an opportunity to battle you. I hope the first to kneel before those mortals is not I."

Emperor Gouchen scoffed coldly, about to say something when Emperor Ziwei stopped him.

Emperor Ziwei shook his head, "Eighteenth brother, you needn’t bother with her. She won’t allow anyone to easily claim the position of ’Heaven Emperor.’ She commands nearly seven million troops, over eight hundred thousand armored soldiers, and has profound resources. She is a formidable enemy that Li Xuan cannot bypass. To be honest, in terms of the resolve for battle among us here, even you and I are far inferior to her."

At this time, Immortal Master Miaodao still had a smile curling at his lips, "My lords, don’t just focus on the South. My great-granduncle, Randeng Buddha, has already left some time ago,"

At this, the faces of both Emperors Ziwei and Gouchen darkened slightly.

The Changsheng Emperor of the South left openly and righteously, while Randeng Buddha departed quietly and without a trace.

This Buddha seemed to be leisurely sitting there, but in fact, it was merely a manifestation of a flicker of flame, his True Spirit having departed long ago.
