Chapter 1684 Embattlemen
Four powerful fighters appeared in each of the cardinal directions of the vast Imperial City of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. They stood on the horizon. Their terrifying authority spread out around them and radiated throughout the Imperial City. Their aura enveloped the palace of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.
The four of them had ninth-level Divine Wheels and came from four different factions.
Of course, including the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty, who was standing in the air above the palace, there were five unparalleled fighters in the area.
The four powerful fighters who appeared were the Dragon Master of the Divine Dragons, the Golden Bird Demonic Lord of the Sky Demon Court, the Divine Elephant Emperor of the Divine Elephants, and Jiang Chengzi of the Celestial Gate of Vast Heaven.
Any one of them was an existence that stood on the apex of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. They were people who could cause the Heavenly Mandate Realm to tremble with the stomp of their foot. They had infiltrated and hidden in the Imperial City of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty before the army had set off.
That was because they had to keep an eye on the powerful fighters of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.
Even though they were a great distance apart, it felt like they were looking at each other in close range within the radius of the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty's Divine Spirit.
It was unsurprising that Jiang Chengzi would attack the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. They were factions that stood on opposite sides. The animosity between the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty and the Celestial Gate of Vast Heaven stemmed from a long time ago. It was destined to end with one party dying.
However, why would the three great Demon Emperors of the Heavenly Mandate Realm's Demon Realm help the Celestial Gate of Vast Heaven?
He did not understand. Was this solely because of the one-time alliance their juniors had in the God's Relic?
Even though those juniors could become the future successors of their respective demon clans, how could they have influenced a war of such a proportion? Why would three people at the level of a Demon Lord take action?
Thus, his question was naturally directed toward the Dragon Master and the two other powerful fighters.
He could not understand.
There was no reply. The four powerful fighters only had one motive for coming here, which was to kill the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. Since they were going to kill him, there was no need for any redundant words.
Thump.
A dull thud rang out from the horizon. The noise rang throughout the Imperial City. They saw countless golden illusory figures descend from the horizon. An unparalleled pressure of the Great Path suppressed the people below. Countless people looked up at the sky. They saw countless golden screens of light suspended in the air. Many golden divine statues of deities appeared out of thin air.
Everyone felt insurmountable pressure. This was especially so for the people in the palace of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. Those with lower cultivation levels found it hard to steady their feet. They rose and looked into the distance in fear.
Boom.
Another dull thud rang out. The majestic palace shook fiercely. The magnificent hall that pierced into the skies trembled and looked ready to fall.
The Sky Stomping Technique was the Divine Elephants' most powerful technique. This time, the Divine Elephant Emperor was personally releasing this ability.
All of the powerful fighters in the palace took to the skies. Yi Tianyu had also appeared. He stood in front of the hall and looked into the horizon. Within his incandescent gold eyes, he saw a majestic illusory divine figure that looked like a Demon God. The figure was infinitely large. The figure of this Divine Elephant had its four legs planted firmly in the four cardinal directions of the palace. It caused the entire palace to be suffocated under an authoritative aura. He also felt as though there was an entire sky above his head. It was heavy and suffocating.
His father had asked for a reason, but the other party did not answer. However, Yu Tianyu faintly had an answer in his heart.
Was it because of him?
Why could he do things to such an extent? He was able to get people at the peak of the Demon Realm to fight for him. He was a person at the lower levels of Renhuang. No matter how exceptional his potential was, he did not have the right to even speak to such powerful figures. Furthermore, he managed to get these powerful figures to work for him, even at the cost of igniting a battle of epic proportions in the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
Rumble… At this moment, the palace was trembling. Countless rays of golden light suddenly shone out from the ground under the palace. Incandescent symbols shone with divine light. From the sky, one could faintly see a majestic array.
The endless glory spread toward the body of the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. The vast sky and the Great Path in the surroundings swarmed into his body. At this moment, the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty looked as though he was the master of this world and was resonating with the Great Path of this universe.
His body was clad in a Divine Armor of the Great Path, and he had a crown on his head. Even though he was still standing in his original position, everyone sensed that everything had changed. At this moment, the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty looked like a deity.
The ultimate technique of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty was the Heavenly Mandate Deification Technique. It transformed a person into a deity and imbued him with limitless abilities and an endless stream of Great Path.
At this moment, the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty was like a deity. He raised his hand and pointed in the air. A radiant ray of golden divine light burst forth in the sky. Millions of divine rays of light pushed forward. It was as if one finger of a deity was enough to extinguish many realms. The attack flew straight toward the Divine Elephant Emperor, who was suppressing the surroundings.
He knew what the intentions of the Divine Elephant Emperor were. He wanted to suppress the entire palace and capture everyone in one swoop, to extinguish his Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.
The sight of a million rays of light piercing into the sky was majestic. However, it had not reached the Divine Elephant Emperor when a figure blocked off the position. It was the Dragon Master, the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor.
According to the plan, the Divine Elephant Emperor would not need to attack in the battle against the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. The Purple Gold Dragon Emperor, Demon Lord of the Sky Demon Court, as well as Jiang Chengzi, would be responsible for attacking the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Realm.
Not only did the Demon Lord of the Sky Demon Court specialize in long-range attacks, but his speed was also equally terrifying. That, coupled with the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor's violent offense and Jiang Chengzi's support, it was impossible for the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Realm to escape alive if they worked together. Even if they could not kill the emperor at the moment, they could at least trap him.
The Divine Elephant Emperor and the rest of the powerful fighters were responsible for exterminating the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty and killing everyone else to ensure that there were no mistakes.
Seeing the assault of the million rays of divine light, the Dragon Master of the Divine Dragons punched forward. In that instant, the horizon seemed to have shattered. It was not an illusory feeling, but something material that could truly be felt.
The sky roared and trembled. The strength of the Dragon God erupted. Countless illusory Purple Gold Dragons seemed to appear on the horizon. They blasted the Great Path back and caused the sky to crack. The endless stream of divine light was also destroyed.
This attack had happened in the sky, but it caused the hearts of countless people on the ground to jump intensely. It was uncomfortable. People who were at a lower level than Renhuang let out dull grunts. They felt incredibly heavy. Even though this attack had happened an extreme distance away from them and could be said to not involve them, the attack still impacted them. The feeling they got was extremely uncomfortable. Their organs were flipping around in their body and felt that they were about to shatter.
The two attacks scattered after they hit each other in the air. The powerful fighters who had been standing in the four cardinal directions now appeared in three corners with the palace of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty in the center.
The Divine Elephant Emperor was alone in his corner. That made the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty realize that the Divine Elephant Emperor would not participate in the battle against him. Instead, the Divine Elephant Emperor's target was the entire Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.
The three other powerful fighters were the ones who were here to kill him.
At the same time, in the palace. The vast army had arrived. They were split into three camps. They charged straight for the palace.
"They're here."
The people became numb. Other than the four powerful fighters who had come here first, the army behind them had also arrived.
Three armies from the Demon Realm. Furthermore, they were all made up of Demon Emperors. None of them were under the level of Renhuang.
In a battle of such a proportion, any resistance put up by people under the level of Renhuang was useless. They were a burden. In fact, even lower-level Renhuangs would not have too large of an impact on the battle.
The people who could directly influence the battle were the apex-level figures. The outcome of the battle would only depend on the lower-level fighters if the people fighting at the very top were at a stalemate.
"Ye Futian, Gu Dongliu."
Some people saw two figures in white robes standing side by side. One was dressed in a white robe and had white hair. He was absolutely charismatic. Even though many people had not seen him before, they did hear about him on multiple occasions. Who else could he be other than Ye Futian?
The person beside him was naturally Gu Dongliu.
Many years ago, Gu Tianxing had come to attack them. Now, his grandson, Gu Dongliu, had also stepped into the Imperial City of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.
Furthermore, they walked in just like that. They could only step in like that with absolute confidence. They were not afraid that the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty would kill them.
That was because the forces of the two camps were unequal. No matter how powerful the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty was, could they deal with the alliance of three great Demon clans and the return of the Celestial Gate of Vast Heaven?
These were four apex-level factions.
Furthermore, each one of these apex-level figures had brought along ritual implements.
The powerful fighters by Ye Futian's side included the Kunpeng Demonic Great Elder, Golden Giant Peng Bird Emperor, Hua Jiangshan, as well as powerhouses from the Divine Dragons and Divine Elephants. They all had eighth-tier Divine Wheels. That, coupled with their ritual implements, allowed them to defend against their enemies for some time, even if they were two powerful fighters with ninth-tier Divine Wheels.
Furthermore, with the four influential figures ganging up on the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Realm, there was no chance for the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty to launch a full-powered attack toward them.
Thus, they dared to charge forward and invade the palace of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. They pushed forward under the witness of countless gazes.
Finally, their figures stopped. Ye Futian looked up at the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty. The other party also looked at him. They interacted with their gazes. One was an existence that stood at the peak of the Heavenly Mandate Realm, the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Realm. The other was a junior who had just stepped into the level of Renhuang. Their statuses were completely unequal.
However, at this moment, the white-haired youth had caused the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty to step into despair.
The divine authority of the Great Path pressed toward where Ye Futian was at. The Great Path crashed around him. However, the influential figures around Ye Futian released their aura and sealed off the space they were at. They did not give the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty any chance of killing Ye Futian.
"How did you convince them?" the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty asked Ye Futian as he stared at him. He could not understand why the three great Demon clans would aid Ye Futian.
Ye Futian looked at him and did not give a direct answer. Instead, he said, "The reason is no longer important. Today, the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty will be destroyed."
"The Heavenly Mandate Dynasty will be destroyed!" The Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty glared at Ye Futian. Indeed, his Heavenly Mandate Dynasty would definitely be defeated by such an unequal formation. They had no chance.
However, there was intense killing intent in his eyes. That gaze seemed to signal that Ye Futian would definitely die.
Ye Futian shifted his gaze away from the Emperor of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty and looked toward another figure. He looked at the prince of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty, Yi Tianyu. This was his Third Senior's place of destiny.
His animosity with the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty paled in comparison to his Third Senior. His Third Senior's animosity with the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty was a vengeance that spanned three generations.
Let it all end today!
