“Primal God Overlord, you are still as naive as ever,” the True Martial Progenitor shook his head.
He said calmly, “Do you know what kind of courage and foundation one needs to wage a campaign against High Heaven? Then again, people like you only fight among yourselves. The heavens are high and the emperor far away. You’ve probably never even thought about defying Heaven, have you?”
The True Martial Progenitor shook his head and laughed softly, then his gaze turned sharp as he said coldly, “Those who defy Heaven dare to face the entire world itself. To wage war against the universe. Even if you were to ally with the Heavenly Court, so what? Even if you had the power to unite all Nine Heavens, so what? If I cannot conquer the Nine Heavens, how could I ever speak of defying Heaven? That would be nothing but the delusions of a fool, a laughingstock.”
Hearing the True Martial Progenitor’s words, everyone felt as if his chest held tens of thousands of mountains, standing firm against the firmant.
Cutting through thorns and brambles, unstoppable.
This was the True Martial Progenitor, and this was the True Martial Sacred Ground, the greatest source of confidence in their campaign against Heaven.
The Primal God Overlord’s expression flickered.
He truly did not wish to go to war with the True Martial Sacred Ground.
In his view, the people of the True Martial Sacred Ground were all dead n walking.
Since ancient tis, had any who defied Heaven ever survived?
So to wage war against a group of people destined to die was not worth the cost. That was his thinking.
Moreover, the current True Martial Sacred Ground was like a bottle of carbonated drink, filled with pressure and constantly shaken.
No one could be sure how violently it would erupt the mont the cap was opened.
Thus, the Primal God Overlord fell silent.
No one else spoke either.
Even among the Divine Court, so of the more belligerent figures chose to remain silent.
“Today, Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord must die. That is my word. If you refuse to accept it, then go ahead and wage war,” the True Martial Progenitor said calmly.
The Primal God Overlord was silent for a while.
The situation seed to reach a stalemate.
After a long ti, the Primal God Overlord finally waved his hand.
“Withdraw.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the montum on the Divine Court’s side visibly weakened.
The Divine Court’s projection slowly dissipated.
Not only did the shattered void begin to stabilize, but even the Divine Gate that had been opened earlier started to close little by little.
Seeing this, Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord panicked.
He rushed toward the Divine Gate.
“No, no, don’t abandon ! I’ve worked for the Divine Court. I’ve killed for the Primal God Overlord. You can’t just leave like this!”
Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord roared desperately.
But what greeted him was the Divine Gate slamming shut, the Divine Court retreating.
Despair filled his eyes.
Behind him, God-Eye Dao Lord and Xu Zimo slowly closed in.
“Divine Court, you’re truly heartless. Even if I beco a ghost, I won’t let you off!” Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord roared.
He was filled with resentnt.
It had taken him millions of years to reach the Three Blossoms realm, and he did not want to die.
He turned and looked at Xu Zimo and the others.
Suddenly, he begged, “Spare . I’ll do anything you want. After you defy Heaven, I can guard the True Martial Sacred Ground. Then the sect will have soone watching over it.”
Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord seed to think he had found a way out.
Seeing his plea, both God-Eye Dao Lord and Xu Zimo shook their heads and smiled.
“That won’t do. Who would leave their enemy alive and keep him at ho? That would be courting destruction,” God-Eye Dao Lord said.
“There are no eternal enemies, only friends bound by benefits,” Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord said.
“If you spare , I’ll serve the True Martial Sacred Ground with my life.”
“The True Martial Sacred Ground has its own destiny. You needn’t concern yourself with it,” Xu Zimo said calmly.
The blade aura of Shadow Tyrant surged, and he slashed toward Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord once more.
Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord’s face changed drastically.
He wanted to flee, but God-Eye Dao Lord had sealed off his escape route.
“If I die today, none of you will et a good end,” Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord roared.
At that mont, he raised both palms to the sky. A heavenly dragon suddenly burst forth from above his head and coiled around him.
This dragon was ford from his essence blood.
He had condensed all of his essence blood into this single heavenly dragon, to battle heaven and earth alike.
God-Eye Dao Lord’s expression changed slightly, as if he realized sothing.
His face shifted as he shouted, “This is bad. Run. He’s going to self-detonate!”
“It’s too late,” Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord roared.
“Even if I die, I won’t die by your blades!”
Boom.
With Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord at the center, explosions erupted continuously.
Rumble, rumble.
Terrifying shockwaves spread outward, annihilating everything in their path.
Xu Zimo and God-Eye Dao Lord tore through the void, retreating rapidly into the distance.
Behind them was a tide of destruction, like a mushroom cloud erupting, its montum soaring into the heavens.
The entire Divine Mountain collapsed under the explosion.
The Divine Mountain was the face of the Divine Court and had long been its place of residence.
Everyone knew that ascending the Divine Mountain ant having a chance to enter the Divine Court.
On this day, the Divine Mountain collapsed, shocking the entire Grand Desolate Heaven.
For a ti, countless speculations arose.
Many factions began investigating the matter.
Xu Zimo and the others tore through the void and quickly left the Divine Mountain’s vicinity.
Xu Zimo stood in midair, his gaze fixed on the direction of the Divine Mountain.
As the dust and smoke from the explosion gradually dispersed, he looked down and saw that the Divine Mountain had been reduced to a barren mound.
The once towering peak now looked like a heap of earth, a sight hard to accept.
“Oh well. He’s dead,” Xu Zimo confird Heavenly Dragon Dao Lord’s death, then shrugged and walked away.
He brought God-Eye Dao Lord back to the territory of the Iron-Eating Beasts.
Ji Zhan and Ouyang Xiu had already left earlier, so they were not hard by the explosion.
…
Within the territory of the Iron-Eating Beasts.
From above, one could see countless pandas roaring as they attacked the Bamboofolk.
Because the Bamboofolk had previously helped Xu Zimo restrain several Infinite Dao cultivators of the Eighteen Blade Purgatory, their internal defenses were weakened.
The Iron-Eating Beasts seized this opportunity and mobilized their entire race to attack the Bamboofolk.
Rumble.
The mountain concealing the Bamboofolk looked as if it might collapse at any mont.
Inside the mountain was a particle world.
The Iron-Eating Beasts was destroying the entrance to that particle world.
Sensing Xu Zimo’s arrival, several enormous Iron-Eating Beasts stepped forward.
Each one was towering like a mountain, exuding imnse pressure.
“Friend, the matter between our Iron-Eating Beasts and the Bamboofolk is our own. We hope you will not interfere,” one of the Iron-Eating Beasts said.
Within the Bamboofolk, a black bamboo stalk pierced the heavens, surrounded by several Iron-Eating Beasts and on the brink of collapse.
It cried out, “Young Master Xu, we have upheld our promise. We hope you will save our Bamboofolk. We cannot repay such great kindness, but we are willing to follow you.”
Hearing this, Xu Zimo smiled.
“I always keep my word. Since you helped , I will naturally send the Bamboofolk away.”
As he spoke, he looked at the Iron-Eating Beasts.
“Either you stop, or all of you die today. Choose.”
