Chapter 1104: Chapter 385: The Pact with Lady Ba [Seeking Guaranteed Support]_3
In such a manner, and so it was.
A faint smile soon appeared at the corner of Jade Pool’s lips.
Dismissing her maid, she stretched lazily and rose, walking toward the Splendid Pool. With each step of her gracefully alternating legs, her pale golden gauze robe floated off the edge of the pool…
It’s a pity, however, that a certain Heavenly Emperor was not present; this beautiful scene remained unappreciated for the time being.
…
In the void beyond the primary heavens and earth.
Within a pocket universe, dozens of fiendish demons and great monsters sat cross-legged, each bearing injuries, their expressions clouded with gloom.
At this moment, the Venerable Calamity opened a Cloud Mirror, staring blankly at the reflection.
For him, there was both good news and bad news.
The good news was that, despite the defeat in this battle, the remaining forces of the coalition army from before had now fallen directly under his control.
The bad news was that there wasn’t much power left.
“How could this be?”
An elderly monster couldn’t help but tremble as he spoke:
“How on earth did this Li Ping’an manage it? When the Inner Heavenly Dao and Outer Heavenly Dao were evenly matched, he was theoretically without the support of heavenly providence. How could he have crushed the Inner Heavens so thoroughly and even seized the Yuan Tu Sword from Ancestor Minghe?”
“Just now, the manifestation of the Heavenly Dao revealed that he has stepped into the Longevity Golden Immortal Realm.”
“Which means that when he seized the Yuan Tu Sword from Ancestor Minghe, he had not yet become a Golden Immortal?”
“Is this creature even mortal?”
“It is rumored that he is the incarnation of the Enlightenment Stone. There is a high possibility that he is the earthly embodiment of the Heavenly Dao! If we lost to the Heavenly Dao, then it’s not unjustifiable.”
For a moment, the leading demons and fiends fell into silent unease.
In the corner, the Six-Winged Heavenly Cicada quietly narrowed its eyes upon hearing this, a hint of hesitation lurking in its heart.
Daoist Mosquito instead spoke up: “According to investigations, Li Ping’an’s father, Li Dazhi, was also devoured by the Inner Heavenly Dao. It’s possible that his entry into the Inner Heavenly Dao spurred many of these anomalous changes. This Great Fate Holder is exceptionally mysterious.”
The Venerable Calamity muttered to himself beside them: “What is Li Ping’an planning next?”
All eyes instantly turned toward the Cloud Mirror in front of the Venerable Calamity.
The Cloud Mirror locked onto the area near Ling Mountain.
—Because the heavenly secrets were muddled, the Venerable Calamity could only probe into regions where he had made prior arrangements.
Within the reflection of the Cloud Mirror, a million celestial soldiers of the Human Race traversed the clouds, layer upon layer encircling the periphery of Ling Mountain. Bathed in moonlight, the soldiers exuded an imposing aura of murderous intent.
Beyond the celestial soldiers, a group of experts in black armor, black masks, and black cloaks arrived, standing neatly atop a single white cloud, each revealing their formidable aura.
These were the Heavenly Fury Guards.
The Venerable Calamity murmured to himself: “Who would have thought… Mo Linyuan, under my very nose, cultivated so many Heaven Slaves, only for those slaves to then be conscripted by Li Ping’an. The Inner Heavenly Dao truly is weak beyond repair. Emperor Jun… Xihe… Wangshu… are truly incompetent, aren’t they? Could it be that Daoist Lu Ya sensed the inevitable defeat of the Inner Heavenly Dao and slipped away ahead of time?”
An old monster roared angrily: “That little brat Lu Ya! He has truly pushed us beyond reason! This is no different from a Sea of Blood enmity!”
“Fellow Daoist, one must still show respect for his Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife.”
The Venerable Calamity gently shook his head:
“I suspect that Li Ping’an is about to use Ling Mountain as his next act of war. Alas, the dignity of our Western Sect has vanished into oblivion.”
Daoist Mosquito inquired: “Venerable One, what should we do now?”
“I will go speak with Ancestor Minghe. You all, relocate the Dao Soldiers and your fellow Daoists from the Outer Heavens, and stay as far away from that Misty Realm as possible.”
The Venerable Calamity stood up and strode toward a dark shadowy corner, where a faint vortex appeared within the shadows.
Before leaving, he turned his head to glance at Daoist Mosquito.
“Mosquito, have you investigated the matter I assigned to you earlier?”
“I, I have.”
Daoist Mosquito’s heart quivered, lowering his head and cupping his hands.
Must it truly be done this way? That Xuan Capital City is the gateway to heaven and earth—if they really proceed…
“Hmm, this is our crucial last resort,” the Venerable Calamity said leisurely. “If we are driven to the brink of utter despair, then we won’t have the luxury to care about anything else.”
With those words, the Venerable Calamity’s figure quietly vanished into thin air.
Daoist Mosquito hung his head and sighed softly, choosing not to explain the doubt-filled stares cast in his direction as he walked to a corner to sit quietly in meditation.
Nonetheless, the demons and fiends present felt a faint sense of reassurance.
The Venerable Calamity still had a final card to play.
Two hours later.
In the East, dawn broke, and the golden light of Taiyang Star spilled over Ling Mountain, illuminating its golden peak.
Upon that golden summit, a figure garbed in blue—the one destined to be the Heavenly Emperor—arrived, sword in hand, standing poised in the firmament. The supreme artifact of slaughter in his hand radiated a dazzling glow.
The grand formation’s barrier below shattered with a resounding crash!
