Terran Guardian - Chapter 3599
Chapter 3577 Suppressing the Source of Turmoil
“What on earth is this thing!”
Dongfang Zhao’s face was grim. He unleashed a punch, instantly killing a strange creature at the half-step Immortal King realm, but he showed no joy.
This was because the number of these strange creatures was simply too great.
They seemed endless.
More importantly,
these strange creatures were fearless and ruthless, seemingly born for slaughter, with no other desires besides killing.
As an ancient powerhouse of the human race, Dongfang Zhao had experienced the turmoil of demons and monsters, and witnessed the chaos of darkness.
But whether it was the demons that had plagued humanity, or the dark creatures corrupted by the power of the Dark Lord, they were all vastly different from the strange creatures before him.
Upon truly facing these strange creatures, Dongfang Zhao understood that this calamity would be anything but simple.
Just then,
gray mist surged.
Nine bizarre creatures, comparable to Immortal Kings, charged out. They seemed to have sensed the immense power emanating from Dongfang Zhao and attacked him without hesitation.
In response,
Dongfang Zhao shattered the void with a single step, unleashing a terrifying burst of power, like the blazing sun illuminating the universe. All the gray mists that touched this aura showed signs of dissolving and crumbling.
“Let me see just how strong you are!”
Dongfang Zhao roared, his powerful and domineering fist shattering the void. His cultivation at the half-step Ancient Immortal realm was fully displayed.
Facing the nine bizarre creatures comparable to Immortal Kings, he advanced instead of retreating, smashing one creature’s body to pieces with a single punch.
At the same time, the attacks of the other eight bizarre creatures arrived.
But Dongfang Zhao shifted his stance, making it almost impossible for any of the bizarre creatures to even touch his clothes, while his own attacks continued unabated.
Another punch was thrown, and the strange creature instinctively tried to block.
The two fists collided.
The strange creature’s arm suddenly exploded, the remaining force obliterating half of its body.
But this injury did not faze the strange creature; it continued to attack relentlessly.
Seeing this, Dongfang Zhao flicked his finger, shattering the creature’s head with a powerful strike. The strange creature instantly lost its life and perished on the spot.
“The head is its weak point!”
Seeing this, Dongfang Zhao immediately understood. Looking at the remaining seven strange creatures, he showed no mercy.
The cultivation of a half-step Ancient Immortal was utterly overwhelming for ordinary Immortal Kings.
Furthermore, although the nine strange creatures were all at the Immortal King level, these beings acted solely on killing and lacked any intelligence. In terms of true strength, they were weaker than Immortal Kings of the same level.
Thus,
Dongfang Zhao easily killed all nine of them.
The cultivators of the Eternal Immortal Court were all invigorated by this sight.
Since the battle on the Path to Immortality, Dongfang Zhao had been in seclusion for most of the year, rarely making a move, and even when he did, he never went all out.
Therefore,
few knew the true strength of this White Emperor.
Only now, with Dongfang Zhao truly unleashing his full power, did they witness the extent of this emperor’s strength.
He single-handedly suppressed nine bizarre beings comparable to Immortal Kings.
Even if these bizarre beings were three points weaker than Immortal Kings of the same level, they were still Immortal Kings.
This showed
just how powerful Dongfang Zhao truly was.
However—
before the Eternal Immortal Court could celebrate too much, the void trembled, the gray mist surged violently, and more bizarre beings at the Immortal King level appeared.
Moreover,
this time,
there were a full thirteen of these Immortal King-level bizarre beings.
This scene
caused the smiles on many faces to freeze, and their hearts to sink.
“Thirteen bizarre creatures at the Immortal King level!”
Dongfang Zhao’s face was also icy, but he still showed no fear. Instead, he directly unleashed an Immortal Seal to suppress the numerous bizarre creatures.
—While
Dongfang Zhao was fighting the bizarre creatures, a great war erupted in the void across the heavens.
One side was the vast army of the heavens, led by the Eternal Immortal Court, and the other side was the bizarre creatures from the upper realms.
Almost every moment, countless cultivators were killed, and countless bizarre creatures perished.
But the latter seemed fearless, their numbers seemingly endless. No matter how the Eternal Immortal Court attacked, it was always difficult to completely eradicate them.
As time passed,
the fighting between the two sides intensified.
The flames of war had spread across most of the universe.
Countless races were wiped out, and the number of Immortal Kings who fell alone was no less than several dozen.
On this day,
within the Eternal Immortal Court…
Gu Ling once again summoned the Ancient Divine Mirror. A divine light pierced the chaotic void, tearing apart the gray mist, and finally, an image was reflected in the mirror.
In the image, the void cracked, transforming into ravines, from which countless bizarre creatures continuously emerged. Occasionally, some of these creatures, emanating a terrifying aura, attempted to traverse the void and enter this place.
But the instant these bizarre creatures entered the universe, heavenly punishment converged, and world-destroying divine lightning struck down, utterly annihilating them on the spot.
This scene
filled the celestial court with solemn expressions.
Gu Ling said, “Based on what the Ancient Divine Mirror has shown, the reason these bizarre creatures are endless is because they continuously pour into the myriad universes from the Upper Realm.
If we don’t find a way to suppress and fill this rift, and allow them to continue to be consumed, we will eventually perish!”
“After all—”
“No one knows exactly how many of these bizarre creatures exist in the Upper Realm.
Compared to the entire Upper Realm, the myriad universes are ultimately too small and weak!”
At the beginning,
although Gu Ling took these bizarre creatures seriously, he didn’t believe they could threaten the survival of all the myriad races in the myriad universes.
If the power of the entire universe were mobilized, suppressing them wouldn’t be a problem.
However…
But after the actual battle, Gu Ling realized he had underestimated these bizarre beings.
They seemed inexhaustible, and no matter how the Eternal Immortal Court tried to kill them, it couldn’t reduce them even slightly.
In comparison
, even with its formidable resources, the Eternal Immortal Court couldn’t withstand such endless attrition.
In just thirty years,
the Eternal Immortal Court’s heavenly army had lost more than half its strength, and even several Immortal Kings had perished; the remaining myriad races were even worse off.
Now, unlike ten years ago, with the arrival of reinforcements from the Primordial Holy Land of the Netherworld, the Eternal Immortal Court had likely already lost even more.
Upon hearing this …
The crowd exchanged glances, and finally, Dongfang Zhao spoke, “Your Majesty is right. To suppress this turmoil, we must address its source.
Otherwise, with this source remaining, these bizarre creatures will continue to emerge, and it will be impossible for us to exterminate them all.
Therefore, I believe we should gather the top forces from all the heavens and directly plunge into the depths of the gray mist to see if we can suppress this entrance.
If we can defeat and dismantle it, this calamity will naturally be averted!”
Many people’s expressions turned subtle upon hearing this.
Delving into the gray mist to address the source—
this sounded easy, but in reality, it was far from simple.
There were countless bizarre creatures; who didn’t know how many powerful beings resided there?
Moreover,
the images in the Ancient Divine Mirror further demonstrated that beyond the myriad universes, there were bizarre creatures of Immortal King rank or higher constantly attempting to enter, only to be thwarted by divine punishment.
If not for this divine punishment , the myriad
universes would have already fallen.
Clearly, addressing this source would involve immense risk.
Just as everyone hesitated, Gu Ling immediately made a decision.
“As the White Emperor said, I will personally take action this time, uniting the power of all the Immortal Kings of the myriad races to resolve this source once and for all!”
“Your Majesty, you mustn’t…”
“Your Majesty is of inestimable strength, how can you take such a risk!”
Upon hearing Gu Ling’s words, many people changed color and hurriedly tried to stop him.
But Gu Ling’s attitude was resolute, his phoenix eyes filled with a chilling intent: “My mind is made up, you need not persuade me any further. Issue the order: all Immortal Kings in each territory, except those responsible for guarding them, should prepare.
Ten days later, you will accompany me to the source to suppress the unrest!”
“Your subjects obey the decree!”
Seeing the Heavenly Emperor’s resolute attitude, even those who had other thoughts dared not object.
This news
was immediately relayed to all forces.
On the Heavenly Sect’s side,
Jiang Zhen also summoned many high-ranking members of the sect and conveyed the edict of the Eternal Immortal Court.
Before anyone could speak, he said, “You should all be aware of the threat posed by this great calamity.
If the source of the turmoil is not resolved and the battle continues, the chances of victory for the Heavenly Realms are slim.
In the next battle, apart from the Pill Saint Elder of the Pill Clan and the Heavenly Kui Elder of the Crimson Owl Clan, who will be responsible for guarding their sects, all the remaining Immortal Kings will accompany me to suppress the source of the turmoil!”
“Agreed!”
The Overlord God-King nodded.
Seeing that he agreed, the other elders, even if they had different ideas, suppressed them and nodded.
At the same time, all the myriad races
in the Heavenly Realms were heading towards the Eternal Immortal Court. On the other side , even from the Netherworld, the Ancient Holy Land had thirteen Immortal Kings arrive. The person in charge of leading the team was Elder Duan Jing of the Holy Land. ”I am very pleased that the Ancient Holy Land has sent thirteen Immortal Kings this time!” Gu Ling looked at the thirteen elders of the Ancient Holy Land, and a long-lost smile appeared on her beautiful face. Although thirteen Immortal Kings may seem few, each one is at least a mid-level Immortal King. Someone like Duan Jing has even reached the peak of the Immortal King realm. Such a force is already formidable. Moreover, this calamity concerns the entire realm, and it’s already commendable that the Netherworld is willing to intervene. Now, they’ve even dispatched thirteen Immortal Kings to assist, which naturally pleases Gu Ling. Duan Jing’s expression remained calm: “The Primordial Holy Land and the Eternal Immortal Court are of one spirit. Now that this calamity and chaos have affected all sides, the Primordial Holy Land will naturally not stand idly by. This time, we thirteen Immortal Kings will all obey the Heavenly Emperor’s command!”
