Chapter 1653: Chapter 1001: The Voice in the Stone Coffin_2

"Have you all rushed to the Ancestral Land, are you not afraid of being completely wiped out by the Bizarre Clan?"

He had fought above the Heavens for such a long time, naturally knowing where the Ancestral Land was.

The terrain there is treacherous, blessed by great Rules, truly mystical indeed.

But if you want to rely solely on the treacherous terrain of the Ancestral Land to block the Bizarre Clan’s offensive, it’s undoubtedly a fool’s dream.

If it were possible, the heavens above wouldn’t have been beaten so miserably.

Doing so would not only be useless but also make them an easy target, allowing the Bizarre Clan to capture them all at once.

If the two sides were equally matched, then such a tactic could be chosen, not only boosting morale but greatly enhancing strength.

But at present, the disparity between the power of these natives above the heavens and the Bizarre Clan is too great.

Usually, even if they hide, they would be found and slaughtered, let alone gathering together, total annihilation would be inevitable.

"We have no other options."

The three Immortal Kings dared not be arrogant, sighed, answering respectfully and honestly.

"Our Domain’s Ten Thousand Clans are prosperous, life flourishing like vibrant flowers, thriving, talented youth as abundant as fish in the river, so many.

But unable to withstand such a long war, already left in ruin, the dead are dead, the wounded are wounded.

There are also many cowards eroded by darkness, willing to become the enemy’s lackeys, turning their blades against their own people.

Evading and hiding might allow us to struggle on for a while longer.

But truth be told, there is no hope in that.

Better to fight to the end, if we can inflict serious damage on the Bizarre Clan, it would be worthwhile.

This time, it was an edict issued by Emperor Dong Chen; such a spectacle will not happen again."

The three Immortal Kings were indeed courageous, speaking with righteous indignation, not feigning.

The Immortal King whose body was hidden in the mist spoke resolutely:

"These years, we have been hiding everywhere, watching our clansmen and friends fall one by one, the Bizarre Clan regards us as mere fish on their cutting board, to slaughter at will.

We have suffered enough of such days. Even in death, we vow to die a grand death, standing strong for the Ten Thousand Clans above the heavens!"

Ye Fan remained silent.

What they said made sense.

If obliteration is inevitable, it is better to rally everyone’s strength for one last, triumphant stand.

Even though he had reached the peak of the path and become an Immortal Emperor, he could not suppress the Bizarre Clan.

The vast heavens above are searched under the Bizarre beings, always finding traces of the Ten Thousand Clans.

Currently, there are still some strong survivors here, but if it continues, in the end, even Immortal Kings might become extinct.

We cannot let a group of youngsters who haven’t even entered the Immortal Path Field stand up to die extravagantly, can we?

Let alone inflicting damage on the Bizarre Clan, they wouldn’t even fill their teeth, it’s meaningless.

He had witnessed too much sorrow over the ages, if death cannot stir anything, it is utterly meaningless: "Since you’ve made up your minds, I will not stop you.

But I have a proposal..."

The three Immortal Kings’ eyes lit up with a hint of hope and asked quickly, "What brilliant advice does Ye Emperor have? Please enlighten us."

Ye Fan looked solemnly at the crowd: "Although the Ancestral Land is dangerous, you cannot rely solely on the terrain for defense. You need to devise a detailed battle plan, preferably laying many traps in advance, not wasting lives."

One of the Immortal Kings nodded slightly, pondering and said, "Ye Emperor is absolutely right. However, our forces have been scattered for too long, gathering them in a short time is not easy. Also, effective traps require considerable time and resources, we really cannot spare anything."

Ye Fan nodded slightly: "I have considered these issues, gathering forces will be your responsibility.

I will reach the Ancestral Land early and set up restraints and traps.

As for resources, I still have some rare immortal materials here, which should come in handy."

The three Immortal Kings showed gratitude, the leading Immortal King clasped his hands and said, "Ye Emperor, such a great grace, we have nothing to repay, if there is reincarnation, we will climb the knife mountain and enter the sea of fire in the next life."

Ye Fan waved his hand heavily: "Now is not the time to say this. Time is short, act quickly."

The three Immortal Kings nodded, signifying their understanding, and then hurried on their way.

Ye Fan watched their departing figures, sighing silently in his heart.

This battle, in truth, the result had long been destined.

But he could not reverse nor intervene in the despairing Ten Thousand Clans.

Oh, the lament of epochs.

Recovering, Ye Fan bid farewell to Gu Chen and others, temporarily parting, heading alone to the Ancestral Land.

"Unexpected that Fellow Daoist Ye can still deploy formations?" The Banished Immortal was surprised.

"Brother Ye is a Yuan Heavenly Master." Wushi explained briefly.

"Yuan Heavenly Master?" The Banished Immortal was perplexed.

He had never heard of such a profession.

"It’s normal that Fellow Daoist hasn’t heard of it, a Yuan Heavenly Master is a profession from the future, quite unique, somewhat like a treasure seeker, capable of depicting source patterns.

Advanced Yuan Heavenly Masters can set up powerful source arrays, which can be defensive, protecting a region; or offensive, used for killing, very powerful."

"I see." The Banished Immortal nodded.

"What should we do?" Gu Chen looked at the remaining two of the Heavenly Covering Trio.

"With Brother Ye’s character, after setting up the source array, he certainly won’t leave, he will likely stay in the Ancestral Land..."

"The two of us should rush there to support."

Wushi and Emperor Merciless exchanged a glance.

"If so, we might as well all go together," Gu Chen suggested after some thought.

"This journey is guaranteed to be perilous, none of you need to wade into this muddy water."

Emperor Merciless shook his head.

The three of them were motivated by personal conviction and emotional ties, accepting it wholeheartedly.

But others are different, there’s no need for them to step into such dangerous waters from the start.

Stone Toughness shook his head: "Fellow Daoist Fierce Man, you can’t say it like that.

We came here, firstly because of the arrangements of Lord, secondly to Breakthrough Realm.

To Breakthrough Realm, one needs life and death experiences, how could we back down? We should rise to the challenge." The Banished Immortal agreed.

Gu Chen was resolute: "Since we chose to come here, we have already prepared to face everything.

You are fighting to protect all living beings, how could this righteousness not move people? How could we retreat now? More strength increases the odds, even if not for victory, it can protect more lives, the universe becomes brilliant because of the Ten Thousand Clans, one clan must not fall silent."

Wushi nodded slightly: "Fellow Daoist Gu is right. Together, our strength is like cutting through metal. We’ll head to the Ancestral Land together, look after each other, winning isn’t the most important thing, most importantly, even if we can’t win, we can still retreat collectively."

Present were not only him, but also Fellow Daoist Banished Immortal and Fellow Daoist Stone Toughness, the others are all at the Immortal Emperor’s Realm!

Exceeds the end of the path plus half the end of the path!

What an exaggerated force!

As long as that Phantom Primordial Ancestor behind doesn’t make a move, it should be fine.

Emperor Merciless remained silent for a moment: "Since all Fellow Daoists have decided, let’s go together."

Within days, Ye Fan had already reached the Ancestral Land ahead.

At the entrance to the Ancestral Land, towering peaks stood, soaring to the heavens, sheer cliffs and precipitous rock faces, an overlapping mountain range.

Ye Fan looked, among the mountains, a large symbol faintly flashed, golden radiance surging, like a heart beating vigorously.

In the center, a sturdy ancient tree rooted itself, its roots gnarled, its bark like old dragon scale armor, towering taller than the peaks, magnificent.

World Tree.

There’s more than one.

There’s also a smaller one.

This is something he hadn’t noticed before.

Reaching the Immortal Emperor’s realm, he saw more things.

Two World Trees, even though one is just a sapling, they are enough, using both World Trees to set up a source array can unleash greater power.

"Who goes there!"

Emperor Dong Chen sensed someone approaching and came to inspect immediately.

The vastness above the heavens, unlike the former Immortal Domain, has genuine Quasi-Immortal Emperors guarding it.

Dong Chen is one of them, an old Quasi-Immortal Emperor of this realm.

After seeing it was Ye Fan, he breathed a sigh of relief: "So it’s Fellow Daoist Ye..."

The Heavenly Covering Trio had fought for a long time above the heavens, the two weren’t very familiar, but they knew each other.

But after saying this, Emperor Dong Chen was stunned, as if belatedly sensing something: "Fellow Daoist... have you already truly entered the Immortal Emperor’s Realm?"

Ye Fan cupped his fists towards Emperor Dong Chen. Hearing this, his mood lightened somewhat, he nodded without denying.
