Chapter 1150: Dream World Illuminates the Void! Blade Rays Reflected On The River Of Universes! (1)

Within the Xiao Yao Saint Realm, a series of towering figures stood silently, waiting; their auras were either ethereal or dominating.

There were a full thirteen figures, representing the thirteen True Saints. Not a single one had left this place.

True Saint Xiao Yao’s true self was here, while the other twelve True Saints had sent their incarnations. For eternal powerhouses of this level, it was a trivial matter to divert a strand of consciousness to maintain an incarnation.

The thirteen True Saints were all awaiting news from Saint Zhu Guang. Would they succeed or fail?

"The situation is grim." True Saint Xiao Yao's expression shifted: "Saint Teng Chong and his group are being besieged. The Eldritch Court has attacked us."

"What?"

"The gall of the Eldritch Court, to attack us so boldly." One by one, the True Saints grew outraged.

Over the numerous samsara cycles of heaven and earth, countless wars between Eternals had broken out. With the Heavenly Imperator dominating the cosmic sea, the Immortal Court gradually gained the upper hand.

Thus, if the Eldritch Court had any inkling that a trap was laid, their response should have been to avert it, keeping Wu Yuan safe from harm. And yet, they dared to launch an ambush?

Swish~ Immortal Reverend Xiao Yao waved his hand, and immediately, several colossal three-dimensional projections appeared in the center of the world, showing the live footage of the battle erupting in the River of Universes.

Five Saints of the Eldritch Court were positioned in a circle, including Saint Lei Dao and Saint Hong Jun, displaying powerful ultimate techniques that caused the Xiantian spiritual qi to churn turbulently. In the center were three Saints of the Immortal Court.

The trio of Immortal Court Saints, led by Saint Teng Chong, were in utter disarray.

Saint Lei Dao and Saint Hong Jun, in particular, could unleash the limit of Perennial power in the River of Universes, completely overpowering them.

"Damn it!"

"Wretched human race." The True Saints of the Immortal Court, observing the battle, were incensed beyond measure. A brilliant plan had turned into such chaos.

"How much longer will Zhu Guang and the others take?" The True Saint, shrouded in endless dark mist, inquired in a low tone.

"At full speed, a day." True Saint Jiu Fang's expression was icy, his frustration evident.

They never anticipated the Eldritch Court to act so brashly.

From what they had monitored so far, the number of eternal powerhouses in the River of Universes had not fluctuated significantly.

But they had overlooked the immense disturbances in the essence of the River of Universes they had caused by sending in dozens of Saints ahead. When the Eldritch Court had surreptitiously dispatched several Saints, they had not detected it.

"A day is too long," remarked another True Saint, shaking her head: "Order Teng Chong and the others to release the Overlords he is escorting and launch a counterattack. Those third-stage Overlords from the cosmic sea aren't qualified to join the fight, but those fourth-stage naturally-born eternal lifeforms are able to display second-stage Overlord strength in the River of Universes. If they join forces, they should be able to hold back the five Saints."

The other True Saints nodded slightly.

Each of the three Immortal Court Saints carried over a thousand Overlords with them, with both their true selves and mana or ether bodies present.

"The Eldritch Court is far too naive; we must teach them a harsh lesson," True Saint Xiao Yao said coldly: "The various factions of the cosmic sea must have noticed the battle by now.

“It’s time to counter-attack!”

...

Indeed, the Immortal Court’s True Saints weren’t wrong. As the Saints from the two factions began engaging in combat, their self-created Daos and ultimate techniques unleashed destructive might nearing the limits of what the River of Universes could endure, eliciting significant ripples in its essence.

Ordinarily, it might take some time before all major factions took notice. But at this present moment, the Xuanhuang Cosmiris had just opened.

Practically all True Saints who had established Saintdoms in the River of Universes were monitoring its changes.

Hence, as the battle erupted and the radiance of the self-created Daos blossomed, the True Saints from the Blood Dream Alliance, Nine Saints Alliance, Nine Peaks, and Wan Yu Tower immediately sensed it.

"Something's happening."

"The radiance of self-created Daos! The fluctuations in the River of Universes have been temporarily subdued; some eternal powerhouses are engaging in combat."

"Are there Saints clashing? Which factions do they belong to?" True Saints like True Saint Taiyuan, True Saint Bu Xiu, and True Saint Yao Yue swiftly projected their incarnations, striving to perceive the situation.

The True Saints who had established Saintdoms in the various universes were cautious, refraining from stepping into the River of Universes. But through their self-created Daos, they were swiftly alerted to any large-scale fluctuations in the River.

“It’s Saint Hong Jun.”

“And Saint Teng Chong of the Immortal Court; it seems the Immortal Court side is at a disadvantage.” Some True Saints quickly recognized the two Saints.

Granted, they were far apart, and these True Saints were perceiving the battle through its fluctuations rather than by sight, making it less clear. But at the very least, the major factions across the cosmic sea determined immediately that a battle had erupted between the Eldritch Court and the Immortal Court.

"An Immortal-Eldritch battle? It's routine, but they haven't battled in the River of Universes for quite some time."

"Send our Saints at once to investigate."

"Hurry." Many True Saints had already relayed messages to the Saints waiting in the River of Universes, urging them to uncover the outcome of the battle.

Battles among eternal powerhouses rarely ended swiftly unless the power gaps were vast.

This conflict had already garnered the attention of many major factions across the cosmic sea.

...

Within a plane of the Eldritch Court Voidrealm, several imposing figures stood.

Eldritch Progenitor Luan Jiang, Eldritch Progenitor Wan Xuan, and others were among the more ordinary ones.

A full eighteen figures stood, all Eldritch Progenitors who had established Saintdoms in the River of Universes.

At the moment, all eighteen Eldritch Progenitors gazed silently at the scenes within the distant light screen projection: the battle between Saint Lei Dao, Saint Hong Jun, and Saint Teng Chong.

Just as the True Saints from the Immortal Court were closely observing this battle, the Eldritch Progenitors of the Eldritch Court naturally couldn’t afford to be complacent.

Everyone understood that the outcome of this battle would dictate the fruits of their earlier efforts.

“Eldritch Progenitor Luan Jiang, you said Wu Yuan would be able to end the battle?”

“Wu Yuan hasn’t even shown up.”

“Lei Dao and the others seem to be struggling. Can they win?” Occasionally, an Eldritch Progenitor would voice their concerns.

They were not doubting him, merely worried as the battle was not developing according to what Eldritch Progenitor Luan Jiang anticipated.

“No need to worry.” Eldritch Progenitor Luan Jiang maintained his composure: “There must be a reason Wu Yuan hasn’t made his move. Be patient for now.”

Eldritch Progenitor Luan Jiang, though concerned, held steadfast belief in Wu Yuan.

“This is bad.”

“There’s trouble.”

“The Immortal Court has released their Overlords; many are fourth-stage Overlords.”

“Not good.” The expressions of many Eldritch Progenitors shifted.

Only Eldritch Progenitor Luan Jiang remained tranquil, silently musing. Wu Yuan, aren't you going to make your move?

...

Deep within the River of Universes, in that chaotic expanse of outer space, terrifying blade rays and spear lights erupted in all directions.

The radiance of self-created Daos bloomed, the destructive nature of their attacks enough to send any Overlord into disarray.

The skirmish amongst the eight Saints had reached a fever pitch.

Boom! Saint Lei Dao and Saint Hong Jun were exerting their full effort. In particular, Saint Lei Dao’s body transformed into a sea of lightning, resembling an apocalyptic world of thunder. Terrifying bolts of electricity swept through the void, yet they still failed to defeat the three Saints of the Immortal Court conclusively.

Teeth gritted, Saint Lei Dao and Saint Hong Jun found their hearts surging with battle fervor amid the life-or-death battle. After all, their true selves were personally embroiled in the bloodbath.

“They can’t block us.”

“Among the three Saints, only Teng Chong is on par with me; the other two are weaklings.” Saint Lei Dao transmitted with confidence: “Overlord Wu Yuan hasn't acted yet; he's likely biding his time, so let’s remain patient.”

“I understand.”

Other factions assessed that the Eldritch Court would find it difficult to secure victory, yet Saint Lei Dao, Saint Hong Jun, and the others brimmed with confidence. The immense strength Wu Yuan had showcased was enough to alleviate any concerns they had.

Suddenly, Saint Lei Dao’s expression turned fierce: “Get ready; just as Overlord Wu Yuan anticipated, the Immortal Court's Overlords are joining the attack.”
