Chapter 3615 The odds of victory lie with us

Slaughter!

Everywhere!

The vast starry sky was almost entirely littered with corpses.

These corpses belonged to both the various realms and the Tianhong Universe.

Faced with abundant resources, the cultivators of the various realms had gone completely mad.

No one would miss such a once-in-a-millennium opportunity.

When this war spread throughout the entire Tianhong Universe, many reclusive ancient beings could no longer remain passive.

After all,

if the Tianhong Universe fell, they would find it difficult to stay out of it.

Therefore,

many veteran powerhouses emerged from seclusion to take charge.

Only then did the cultivators of the Tianhong Universe truly understand that there were so many reclusive powerhouses in the world.

Among them ,

there were a full twenty-six beings at the half-step Immortal Emperor realm alone.

This force also made the various realms feel threatened.

Led by the Tianzong, all forces consciously united to resist the allied forces of the Tianhong Universe.

…

Taihua Great World.

This is one of the Nine Immortal Emperor Great Worlds.

This world was originally created by the Taihua Immortal Emperor, one of the nine Heavenly Venerables under the Gu Hong.

However, with the fall of the Taihua Immortal Emperor, this great world fell into the control of the Heavenly Sect.

At this moment,

within the Taihua Imperial Palace,

powerful figures from all the heavens, led by the Heavenly

Sect, have gathered. Among them are forces   such as the Eternal Immortal Court and the Primordial Holy Land.

Looking at the scene before them, all the cultivators from all the heavens understand.

All along , the heavens have revered the Eternal Immortal Court, the Netherworld has revered the Primordial Holy Land, and the Heavenly Sect has transcended both, existing independently in the world.   Some veteran cultivators are well aware of the Heavenly Sect’s transcendent status, but for some newly rising cultivators,   this concept has always been somewhat vague.   Until now,   when Jiang Zhen, representing the Heavenly Sect, sits in the main seat, while other forces are relegated to lower positions, it is enough to explain everything.   ”Today, twenty-six half-step Immortal Emperors have emerged in the Tianhong Universe. Among them, the strongest is a being named Venerable Yu Chen.   This person is extremely powerful, and it is rumored that he had already stepped into the half-step Immortal Emperor realm three hundred million years ago.   At his peak, he even fought against the Taihua Immortal Emperor, one of the Nine Heavenly Venerables, and   escaped unscathed,” Jiang Zhen slowly spoke.   His words made the expressions of the other cultivators become much more solemn.   Twenty-six half-step Immortal Emperors are certainly not to be underestimated.   During the Great Calamity of the Heavens, a single half-step Immortal Emperor was enough to make the entire Heavens suffocate.   Even now, with the strength of the Heavens greatly increased, twenty-six half-step Immortal Emperors are still extraordinary.   Moreover ,   Venerable Yu Chen’s strength is even more formidable.   Of course,   the most important point   is that Venerable Yu Chen’s appearance mobilized all the cultivators of the Tianhong Universe.   The counterattack of the last remaining strength of a third-tier universe is absolutely earth-shattering.   With their current strength, even if they could win, the price they would pay would be extremely heavy.   Gu Chen said in a deep voice, “Twenty-six half-step Immortal Emperors are indeed terrifying, but we may not be no match for them.   But I wonder what Immortal Emperor Changqing thinks now?”   ”The Ancestor is currently heading towards the Taihua Great World…”   Before Jiang Zhen could finish speaking, a mysterious and vast fluctuation came, and a figure in green robes slowly appeared.   All the cultivators who saw this hurriedly stood up.   ”Greetings, Immortal Emperor Changqing!”   ”No need for formalities.”   Shen Changqing put his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent.   Seeing this, Jiang Zhen also hurriedly stood up and offered his seat, while he himself served to the side.   ”Ancestor, please sit!”   ”Hmm…”   Shen Changqing did not refuse and sat down directly in the main seat, then looked at the faces of the many cultivators below, his expression remaining calm.   ”I already know about Venerable Yu Chen’s matter. Their alliance isn’t necessarily a bad thing.”   ”The Tianhong Universe is too vast. It would be too troublesome to root them out one by one.   Now that they’ve united, it’s a perfect opportunity to wipe them all out in one fell swoop.   Once this group of cultivators is dealt with, the Tianhong Universe should have no power to resist!”   Shen Changqing’s eyes held a subtle expression, a faint smile playing on his lips.   However, this smile carried a chilling undertone.   To suppress a universe, its backbone must be broken.   The fall of Gu Hong and the nine Heavenly Venerables, while greatly weakening the Tianhong Universe, still held a glimmer of hope for the other cultivators.   Only by crushing this last hope could the Tianhong Universe truly fall under his control.   A third-tier universe.   Shen Changqing never considered destroying it.   After all,   such a universe was no ordinary one.   Looking across billions of microcosms, those truly capable of advancing to the third tier were, in Shen Changqing’s view, extremely few.   The emergence of any third-order universe requires a long period of accumulation and sedimentation, and then benefits from various opportunities before it can truly advance.   After all, the advancement of a universe also involves facing great calamities.   When the various universes advanced to the second order, the calamities they faced were already terrifying enough.   If they were to advance from the second order to the third order, the calamities would likely be even more astonishing.   Therefore,   an ancient third-order universe is naturally of extraordinary significance.   Destroying a universe is naturally not as useful as controlling it.   Even if Shen Changqing intends to use the foundation of this universe to help the various universes advance, the Tianhong Universe must ultimately be preserved.   Upon hearing this,   many cultivators’ tense minds suddenly relaxed.   Since he has said so, the counterattack of the Tianhong Universe is not a concern.   Subsequently…

Shen Changqing flicked his finger, and a Daoist aura entered the void. A scene slowly appeared in the next instant.

This scene depicted a vast world.

With a flick of Shen Changqing’s sleeve, the scene shifted again, and many figures exuding powerful auras appeared within a celestial palace.

The leader, dressed in a cloud-patterned Daoist robe, was surrounded by celestial light and Daoist charm, sitting regally in the main seat, radiating an extraordinary air.

Upon seeing this cultivator’s face, many cultivators had the same thought:

“Venerable Yu Chen!”

Just then

, the voices of other cultivators echoed from within the scene.

“Reporting to Venerable Yu Chen, the armies of all the universes are now gathered in the Taihua Great World. The Great Celestial Venerable Gu Hong is nowhere to be found; he may have perished.

I once captured a cultivator from the heavens and, after searching his soul, learned that there exists an ancient powerhouse in the Great World named Immortal Emperor Changqing.

This person’s strength is extraordinary; he is hailed as the strongest being in the entire universe. It is said that the Nine Celestial Venerables perished at his hands.

And the Great Celestial Venerable Gu Hong may have perished because of him!”

Upon hearing this,

almost all the cultivators in the Immortal Palace paled.

The slaying of the Nine Celestial Venerables.

The annihilation of the Great Celestial Venerable Gu Hong.

Such power was far beyond their ability to contend with.

Only Venerable Yu Chen remained calm, saying indifferently, “I understand your concerns.

However, while this person is indeed powerful, you must understand that this is the Tianhong Universe, not just any universe.

Now, most of the forces of our universe are gathered here, enough to mobilize the entire fortune of the Tianhong Universe.

With this fortune as our foundation, even an Immortal Emperor can be suppressed.”

“This battle!”

“Victory lies with us!”

Venerable Yu Chen’s words were like a reassuring pill, instantly calming the previously agitated hearts of the other cultivators.

Seeing his confident expression, they felt reassured.

“The Tianhong Universe is facing a great calamity. If Venerable Yu Chen can lead us through this tribulation, we will naturally respect you!”

A half-step Immortal Emperor was the first to declare.

The other powerful figures of the Tianhong Universe exchanged glances and followed suit.

“We feel the same way!”

The Tianhong Universe was now at a critical juncture of life and death; Venerable Yu Chen stepping forward to lead the charge was their last hope.

With nine Celestial Venerables looming overhead, their fall might not be so unbearable for Venerable Yu Chen.

At least,

it was better than submitting to the myriad universes. After all

, since the invasion of the myriad universes, numerous forces had been destroyed, many great worlds ravaged, and top experts almost entirely slaughtered.

No one wanted to face such a situation one day.

They no longer cared about the cause of this war or who bore the blame.

At the critical juncture of a universe’s survival, past grievances could be set aside.

Seeing this,

Venerable Yu Chen smiled.

“With such determination from you all, this battle will surely be a great victory!”

“Issue my order: send a challenge to the myriad universes. One year later, we will send troops to the Taihua Great World for a final battle!”

Venerable Yu Chen waved his hand, his expression resolute.

“In this battle, I swear to suppress them all, cleanse the universe, and restore order!”

“We obey!”

…

Silence!

Within the entire Immortal Palace, all the cultivators were silent. They exchanged glances, each seeing a strange expression on their faces.

The Jade Emperor’s absolute certainty of victory, and his consolidation of numerous forces within the Heavenly Hong Universe, should have been something to fear.

Yet, witnessing this scene from afar, they felt something odd.

All the deployments!

All the grand pronouncements!

All of this was being observed by the cultivators.

Clearly,

the Jade Emperor had not noticed their spying from beginning to end.

What did this mean?

It meant the difference in strength between the two sides was immense, unimaginably vast.

Otherwise, under such blatant spying, it was impossible for the other side to remain completely unaware.

However—

some cultivators showed slight worry on their faces: “The power of destiny of a third-tier universe is not to be underestimated. Immortal Emperor Changqing, do you think we should act preemptively and crush the Tianhong Universe first?”

Although Venerable Yuchen’s strength seemed far inferior to that of Immortal Emperor Changqing,

his confident demeanor and the power of destiny of the Tianhong Universe mentioned in his words still exerted some pressure.

Shen Changqing smiled calmly: “The power of destiny of a third-tier universe… I also want to see just how far a half-step Immortal Emperor’s limit truly lies!” (End of Chapter)
