Chapter 1366 (Raw 1356): Signs of the Final Battle
"Xiao Bai!"
Xiao Chen revealed a smile on his calm face. When he first learned that the Fiend Race sent reinforcements, he had wondered whether Xiao Bai would be coming or not. Unexpectedly, she really came.
He pushed off with his feet and activated the formation plate in his hand before gently landing on the city wall.
When Xiao Chen arrived, he saw that the people there were not only An Junxi and Xiao Bai but many other friends as well. There were his first senior sister Shui Lingling; the Fiend Race's Kong Yuan, a descendant of the Peacock King; and Yuan Xu, a personal disciple of the Spirit Fox King.
When Xiao Bai saw Xiao Chen arrive, she immediately went forward without any concern and grabbed Xiao Chen's arm. Then, she said with a smile, "Elder Brother Xiao Chen, why are you so late? Everyone has been waiting for you for a long time already."
Xiao Chen smiled and replied, "I am already very fast. If I had known that Xiao Bai would be here, I would definitely have put in effort to be faster."
When Xiao Bai heard this, a faint blush appeared on her fair face. She did not look like the famous Spirit Fox King's adoptive daughter, the successor who would be the next Fiend King.
Shui Lingling knew about the relationship between Xiao Bai and Xiao Chen, so she did not mind this display. She smiled and said, "Let's go. Let's not make the Vice Sect Master and the others wait for too long."
"Right."
These people of the same generation chatted with each other, showing a lively scene. As they spoke, they soon arrived at Meteor Trail City's City Lord Residence.
Along the way, Xiao Chen saw several buildings that sported significant damage despite the support of the formation. The city's morale was declining.
This induced worry. The damage that Meteor Trail City received as a result of the repeated attacks expanded each time.
Over time, the pressure of defending the city would grow increasingly greater.
The formation also required time to maintain. However, the attacks of the Deity Dao Union were practically nonstop. The speed of restoration lagged behind the damage.
Nevertheless, there was actually no need to fear the city breaking. The scary thing would be the instant the city broke; there would be no way to escape easily, resulting in the other side breaking through several layers of the formation in rapid succession.
This was what happened at the start. The Deity Dao Union's reinforcements of the Ghost Race, the Corpse Race, and the Deity Race had arrived suddenly, catching the Supreme Sky Sect off guard and forcing the cultivators at the periphery into continuous retreat.
The Deity Dao Union had not given the Supreme Sky Sect any breathing room, frantically giving chase.
Only after five layers of formations were broken did the Supreme Sky Sect slowly stabilize its footing. By then, the losses were heavy.
As the group chatted with each other, they reached the hall of Meteor Trail City's City Lord Residence.
The people in charge of the other respective nodes were already inside.
Fang Baiyu, the Supreme Sky Sect's Vice Sect Master, sat right in the center. The Fiend Race Martial Emperor Jiang Chuan and the Thunder and Lightning Palace's Wang Xu sat on his left and right.
In the entire hall, these three were the only ones who were Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors. The rest were only Minor Heavenly Martial Emperors.
Before the Fiend Race's Greater Heavenly Martial Emperor Jiang Chuan arrived, there had been only two Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors in the entire ninth layer of formations. They shouldered the obviously great pressure of the Deity Dao Union's attacks.
It was not that the Supreme Sky Sect and the Thunder and Lightning Palace did not have any other Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors. It was just that the rest of them were fighting an even more miserable battle and were unable to free themselves.
Seeing Xiao Chen enter, the three Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors smiled faintly and stood up to welcome him at the same time.
Fang Baiyu walked over with large strides and sized up Xiao Chen. "Not bad. I remember the first time I met you; you were not even a Martial Sage yet. In a mere ten years, you have already become someone who can influence the entire Kunlun Realm.
"Everyone, let me introduce a great expert. This is the Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen, the Sect Master of the Dragon's Gate, also the disciple that my Supreme Sky Sect is the proudest of. After defending Maple Leaf Lake for just two days, he has already killed three Martial Emperors of the Deity Dao Union!"
This information shocked everyone in the hall. Killing three Martial Emperors in two days, such a result was too formidable. For most Martial Emperors, even if they could not defeat their enemies, they would still be able to flee.
Unless the two side's strength differed by too much, there was no way to kill a Martial Emperor. The Supreme Sky Sect and Deity Dao Union had been fighting for a long time already. While there were many severely injured Martial Emperors, the number of Martial Emperors that had died could still be counted on two hands.
Xiao Bai opened her eyes wide and said with a smile, "Elder Brother Xiao Chen, you are really incredible. You are as powerful as ever."
An Junxi and his contemporaries also showed shock in their eyes. They had long heard of the Azure Dragon King's reputation. Now that they personally heard about his achievement, they realized that he truly lived up to his reputation with no exaggeration.
Immediately, everyone stood up and cheered for Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen had experienced many similar scenes before. He dealt with this calmly and with a smile, feeling neither proud nor impatient.
After the greetings, Fang Baiyu got everyone to take a seat and discuss countermeasures.

At the same time, at the Deity Dao Union's main camp that was responsible for the attacks, the upper echelon of the various races looked at the battle reports and frowned.
There was a total of six people in the room: the Deity Race's Leng Zhengyang, the Phoenix's Passion Palace's Su Qianxing, two old men from the White Emperor City and the Divine Martial Gate, and two of the Ghost Race and the Corpse Race.
All of the six people present were Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors. The ones responsible for the attacks on Meteor Trail City were these six as well.
Compared to Meteor Trail City, which had only three Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors, the Deity Dao Union's side was twice as strong.
"What does everyone think about the Maple Leaf Lake node?" Leng Zhengyang asked after putting down the battle reports.
At Maple Leaf Lake, the Ghost Race elites had been wiped out completely. Of the four Martial Emperors sent, one died and three were injured. Among all the nodes they attacked, this one had the worst casualties, nearly unbearable.
The Corpse Race Martial Emperor smiled and said, "The Ghost Race Martial Emperors are only so-so. It seems like they are even worse off than my Corpse Race."
Previously, the Ghost Race old man did not forget to mock the Corpse Race when they lost two Martial Emperors.
Now that there was an opportunity, naturally, the Corpse Race rudely returned the mockery.
The Ghost Race Martial Emperor snorted coldly and retorted, "The Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen is there. Even if you went, you would not be able to do anything to him."
"Stop bickering. In my opinion, we might as well give up on this node. The six of us need to attack Meteor Trail City and cannot free ourselves to handle this. If we send another Minor Heavenly Martial Emperor, it would be like helping Xiao Chen out. Only by taking down Meteor Trail City would Xiao Chen have no other choice but to retreat," the Phoenix's Passion Palace's Su Qianxing suggested.
"Speaking of which, when are the three thousand Martial Emperors of your Deity Race going to make a move? As long as the Deity Race steels themselves to do it, with three thousand Martial Emperors, you would be able to sweep through the entire Supreme Sky Sect in an instant," the old man from the White Emperor City asked with some dissatisfaction.
The moment this was said, the Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors of the other races all looked at Leng Zhengyang. The Deity Race relied on the power of faith and had Respected Deities, all of them as strong as Martial Emperors.
Although those who advanced to Martial Emperor by relying on faith were somewhat weaker, there were so many of them. If they all attacked at the same time, even a Prime would feel afraid.
Leng Zhengyang's expression remained blank as he replied, "That is a trump card of my Deity Race. How can we use it so easily? I heard that the Corpse Race has been raising Emperor Grade Demonic Corpses for tens of thousands of years. You probably have at least several hundred by now. Why do I not see the Corpse Race taking them out? There are also the Ghost Race's Demonic Soul army and the Three Holy Lands' Holy Beast Totems. Why do I not see you all using them?"
No one here was a fool. Every party possessed strong trump cards. However, they would not easily use these trump cards in the war with the Supreme Sky Sect when they had not figured out the other side's strength yet.
Once these trump cards were gone, what would suffer would be the Luck of the entire race. If things went badly, their entire race might be in danger of extermination.
The atmosphere turned somewhat awkward. While the Deity Dao Union was strong, the various races and factions were not necessarily of one heart.
They still held back, scheming against each other.
"Humph! In any case, your Deity Race is the strongest, and the Deity Dao Union was also formed by your Deity Race. You should be putting more into this war." The Corpse Race Greater Heavenly Martial Emperor flung out these words coldly.
Su Qianxing tried to calm the situation. "Let's not mention this matter anymore. After all, we are just minor characters and cannot truly make any decision. Even if Brother Leng wants to activate more of the Deity Race's strength, he would have to obtain permission from the Deity Sovereign first. It is also the same for all of us."
The friction between the groups still arose from the fact that the Supreme Sky Sect was simply too difficult to deal with.
With the strength of these Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors now, breaking the ninth layer of formations was somewhat difficult for them. The longer they fought, the greater the losses. The fall of every Martial Emperor was a headache.
"Since my Deity Race is that strong, after breaking through the other side's ninth layer of formations, the Supreme Sky Sect will be destroyed. Why is it that the more you fight, the less confident you become?"
Just at this moment, a resonant voice rang out from outside the room. Di Wuque led Tian Youxi, the two Holy Sons, Xing Jue, and Xie Zixuan in with large strides.
Their faces were bright, filled with smiles that radiated confidence.
"Greetings, Divine Son."
The many Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors all quickly stood up and saluted the new arrivals.
"Everyone can dispense with the formalities. I came bearing the command token of the Union Chief and the various Vice Union Chiefs. The final battle will arrive soon. No matter how stubborn the Supreme Sky Sect is, its destruction is inevitable."
