White Bone's Self-Detonation? The Decisive Battle in Central Province

The Withered Wood Saint had barely finished speaking.

The White Bone Saint's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly knelt down, banging his head on the ground, and said, "I dare not! I dare not! This junior would never have had such an intention!"

"Are you absolutely sure you didn't mean that?"

The Withered Wood Saint sneered, "You must be tired from acting every day, right? After we die in battle, you won't have to act anymore."

"This junior is solely for the sake of the Holy Alliance. Asking the seniors for help is the only option. The Nine Provinces Realm has abundant fortune and possesses both favorable timing and location. They are familiar with everything in this world. If we delay any longer, the Holy Alliance will only lose more elites."

"Even if we eventually conquer the Nine Provinces, it will be difficult to hold them. It was only out of utter desperation that we asked the five seniors to launch a strong attack. If you don't believe me, I can be the first to go into battle tomorrow and fight to the death with the Saint of the Nine Provinces Realm."

Seeing the White Bone Saint in such a hurry.

The Withered Wood Saint stared intently at him with his chilling eyes, and after a long while, said in a gloomy tone, "But I killed your offspring, don't you really hate me?"

"The descendants of the younger generation deserve to die; this is their fate."

How so?

The Withered Wood Saint looked at the other party with a puzzled expression.

"Since I have chosen to become the Saint Venerable of the Holy Alliance, I must pay the price. Nothing in this world is without reason. The five seniors have entrusted me with authority, and I must show the corresponding sincerity."

"Heh... Should I call you ruthless, or weak?"

The Withered Wood Saint laughed.

The White Bone Saint suddenly stood up, his eyes filled with determination, and roared, "This junior knows Withered Wood Senior Drywood doesn't believe me. Since I cannot make you believe me, then this junior will self-destruct tonight, so that you will have no more worries!"

"Oh?"

The Withered Wood Saint laughed even louder, "Fine... then go die!"

Buzz!

The aura around the White Bone Saint surged, and the Saint Power circulated wildly within his body, suddenly making the atmosphere oppressive.

Boom!

A loud explosion rang out.

Blood holes kept bursting open all over the White Bone Saint's body, and the momentum showed no signs of stopping.

Even the Withered Wood Saint opposite him had a drastic change in expression.

It actually self-destructed!

Just then...

A beam of green light descended, repairing the White Bone Saint's body, soul, bones, meridians, and dantian.

A sigh followed, "Old Ghost Withered Wood, let's not make things difficult for him."

The speaker was one of the five Saints.

Azure Lamp Saint.

Cultivate the Great Dao of Nature.

"Hahahaha... I was just thinking of joking with the Saint Venerable... I didn't expect our Saint Venerable to take it so seriously..."

The Withered Wood Saint laughed heartily.

At this moment, although the White Bone Saint had been rescued, his Blood Qi was still churning, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He stared blankly at the five Saints, all of whom were laughing heartily.

"Saint Venerable, that old ghost Withered Wood tree was just joking with you. How could we bear to see the Holy Alliance lose such an excellent leader?"

The Azure Lamp Saint laughed.

The other Saint also nodded.

The Withered Wood Saint then said, "Saint Venerable, in tomorrow's battle, we will all be at your command. You don't need to take action; just stay in the rear and oversee things. The entire Holy Alliance's troop deployment depends on you..."

"Nature!"

The White Bone Saint spoke with difficulty, panting heavily.

"Alright, you should go back and heal your wounds now..."

"Very well! This junior will take his leave!"

The White Bone Saint bowed and left.

After a while.

An elderly man with a flushed face standing beside the Azure Lamp Saint spoke up, "Tell me, is he faking it or is he really?"

"It's hard to say."

The Azure Lamp Saint shook his head.

Another Saint in a yellow robe said, "I don't think it's an act. Brother Azure Lamp only mastered this method of saving people today. He couldn't have known it beforehand. To self-destruct without leaving any way out, if it really was an act, would be too terrifying..."

The Withered Wood Saint scoffed, "Whether it's real or fake, it doesn't matter. He's just a spineless coward; what can he do to cause trouble?"

Their probing today was intended to kill the White Bone Saint if anything went wrong.

Result.

The other side deliberately self-destructed.

That was unexpected.

However, the five of them did not actually find the White Bone Saint's strategic arrangements inappropriate.

At this moment, the five Saint gazed towards the Central Province Plains.

They were all eager to experience the prowess of the Saint of the Nine Provinces Realm.

The next day.

The border of Central Province.

Amidst the churning sea of clouds, hundreds of void warships surged forth in a mighty procession.

On the opposite side of these warships.

The defenses of Central Province had already been established.

The benevolent and kind-faced Heavenly Lake Holy Lord, Mu Tianji, confronts the White Bone Saint.

This moment.

Both Saint exuded an air of nonchalance.

It seems that what awaits us is not a major battle, but rather a leisurely tea-drinking experience.

"You must be Senior Mu, the overlord of the Nine Provinces Realm and the current leader of Heavenly Lake..."

The voice of the White Bone Saint conveyed reverence.

"Don't keep calling me 'senior,' you look older than I am, I can't accept that."

The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord straightened his posture and spoke, defiantly proclaiming his advanced age.

The White Bone Saint laughed and said, "Senior Mu, the Shattered Star Realm has collapsed. Our Holy Alliance came to the Nine Provinces Realm to seek a way to survive, not to fight to the death with you cultivators of the Nine Provinces."

"Yeah?"

The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord rolled his eyes and said, "You've committed atrocities and disturbed the peace of my Nine Provinces Nine Provinces Realm you arrived here. How much blood of cultivators from my Nine Provinces is on your Holy Alliance's hands? Is this what you call asking for a way out?"

"It's truly a last resort!"

The White Bone Saint clasped his hands and said, "Our Holy Alliance's original intention is still to establish a foothold in the Nine Provinces Realm. Even today, our Holy Alliance is not here for war, but to give Heavenly Lake and the Nine Provinces Realm a chance."

"Oh? Then let this old man hear what other shameless things you can say."

The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord looked at the other party.

The White Bone Saint slowly said, "If the Heavenly Lake Pool abdicates and the Holy Alliance rules the Nine Provinces Realm, the war will end, and the Nine Provinces will continue to function as usual."

"As expected, I underestimated your shamelessness."

The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord shook his head.

"You should think twice. With the current strength of the Nine Provinces Realm, it is impossible to stop my Holy Alliance."

"We'll have to give it a try."

A sharp glint flashed in the eyes of the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord.

"Your Saint Venerable, there's no need to waste your breath!"

At this time.

Behind the White Bone Saint, a Heavenly Gang Star with a slave mark on his face shouted loudly.

"Today, with five Saint emerging and the Holy Alliance's elite forces all present, let's seize the Heavenly Lake directly and slaughter all those who stand in our way."

The speaker.

It's not just those Faded Ones.

He is also the head of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Stars.

Lone Wolf.

The White Bone Saint pondered for a moment, knowing he couldn't force the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord to compromise, and said helplessly, "Since that's the case, this junior will not insist. I hope you and the entire Nine Provinces Realm will not regret it..."

The White Bone Saint's eyes turned icy, and he uttered a single word. "Kill!"

The sound faded.

Then a deafening roar of battle cries erupted.

The Holy Alliance forces charged out.

Them.

We must break through the defenses of Central Province.

Although not all members of the Holy Alliance were present, more than half of them were.

More importantly...

Today.

With five Saint taking action, the Central Province will surely be turned upside down!
