Clash

Thump!

A deep, muffled roar came from the Radiant Immortal Palace in the heart of the Radiant Divine Capital!

Then came a voice filled with anger!

"Hmph! The Azure Cloud Immortal Dynasty! They dared to lose two of my Heaven-rank Light Emissary and eight Earth-rank Light Emissary, and even embezzled my tribute from Ten Thousand Nations. The losses are incalculable! They deserve to die!"

On the throne of the Radiant Immortal Palace, even the usually composed Lord of Light God could no longer remain calm. At this moment, his face was gloomy, and he was reprimanding the others in a stern voice.

The main problem is that we have never suffered such heavy losses since the rise of the Radiant Divine Kingdom!

The Divine Kingdom only has ten Heaven-rank Light Emissary at most, and two of them have fallen in this one fell!

More importantly, there were ten times more tributes from all over the Ten Thousand Nations than usual!

Their own Divine Kingdom dispatched ten Radiant Emissary and numerous officials from the Ministry of Rites to personally collect the resources, only to have them become the enemy's spoils! They've fallen into the enemy's pocket! Now, the enemy will use these resources to grow stronger and then attack them!

What a disgrace! An utter disgrace!

Inside the main hall, all the civil and military officials were silent, fearing that the wrath of the deity would affect them.

Several ministers from the Ministry of Rites were just dragged away and beheaded. Some were because they stepped into the hall with their left foot first, and others were because the deities disliked them having heads...

However, they should also be punished, since they were the ones who suggested personally collecting the tribute.

However, since it is a court meeting, it is necessary to discuss it.

Minister Fu, Fu Kongming in a crimson official robe, stepped forward first, cupped his hands and reported, "Your Majesty, all of this must be the work of the mysterious Azure Cloud Six Venerables. I believe that the most urgent task now is to send a large number of spies to find out the identities of these Six Supreme Venerables. Now is the critical moment for our Light and Evernight to fight. We should not cause any more trouble before we find out the identities of these Six Venerables."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a minister of equal rank stepped forward to retort, "Minister Fu, according to you, does this mean that our Radiant Divine Kingdom is afraid of this tiny Soaring Clouds Dynasty? If this matter were to spread, how would the other vassal states view it? And how would our Bright Kingdom conduct itself?"

A minister who looked like a military general chimed in, "That's right! When has Guangming ever suffered such a loss! Your Majesty, I am a military general, not good with words, only good at charging into battle. As long as you give the word, I will immediately lead my troops to flatten this Azure Cloud Immortal Dynasty."

"Ministers, none of you have gotten to the point. I had already guessed that Soaring Clouds must be backed by the Evernight Empire. I wasn't sure before, but now I am, because our spies from within the Evernight Empire have sent word."

The strategist at the forefront, dressed in a scholar's robe, shook his folding fan and spoke confidently. After speaking, he took out a Communication Token from his sleeve and respectfully said to the Lord of Light God in the main seat, "Reporting to the God, the high-ranking official I placed in the Evernight Empire just reported to me that the Evernight Four Great War Gods are not currently in the country."

"So this all makes sense; it was these Four Great War Gods who destroyed the Radiant Emissary."

Upon hearing this, most of the civil and military officials agreed with the statement, Lord of Light God, who was in the main seat, also nodded.

That makes sense. The cultivation levels of the Evernight Four Great War Gods were all above those two Heavenly Rank Light Gods. They had the advantage over their enemies, so it was normal for them to be slaughtered.

"The Evernight Empire truly lives up to its reputation as a rat in the dark; it is utterly ruthless and insane. It has already dispatched Four Great War Gods before the war has even begun."

"Issue the Emperor's decree."

"Order all Heaven-rank Light Emissary and Earth-rank Light Emissary go into battle, and increase the army by 500 million! Order more than 10,000 vassal states to enter a state of national war and dispatch all their strongmen and immortal soldiers to attack the Evernight Empire."

"Tell them that as long as we defeat Evernight, all the tribute they have paid this time will be returned, and the five celestial dynasties that have contributed the most can share the Evernight Empire with my Brightness."

"We must eradicate them completely at all costs!"

This edict ignited the already heated Qinghan Immortal Prefecture once again!

Only two days after the Radiant Divine Kingdom officially declared war, a full-scale war is about to begin!

With such a large-scale military operation, only a few battles are needed to determine the victor; a crucial moment in history has arrived!

"Heavens! The Light Empire already has 100 million celestial soldiers, and now it has added another 500 million, and all its vassal states have entered a state of national war. How can the Evernight Empire possibly withstand this?"

"The top five immortal kingdoms that contribute the most can share the Evernight with the Light? This is fantastic news! After this battle, five more immortal kingdoms will rise to power!"

"The betting has started! The betting has started! Light vs. Evernight, the current odds are 100:30."

"Make way! Make way! This immortal is going to bet! This immortal bets on the light to win, a hundred billion Top Grade Immortal Crystals!"

"Foolish! Going all in is a kind of wisdom! I've bet my entire fortune! If I win, I'll make a fortune; if I lose, I'll be homeless!"

"You're all cowards! I'm betting on Evernight to win, going all in on the right side. If we win, we'll make a fortune! If we lose, we'll be forced to farm!"

While countless cultivators in Qinghan Immortal Prefecture were discussing the matter heatedly, on the other hand, the two major battlefields opened up by the Evernight Empire and the Radiant Divine Kingdom were also fiercely contested.

The kingdoms of Light and Evernight share three major border areas: one is a mountain range running north to south called the Heaven Hunt Immortal Forest, and the other is a great rift valley in the northwest Nirvana Immortal Abyss. These two locations are currently the two Main Battlefield.

The two empires have committed a total of 100 million troops here, and they are fighting fiercely every day, with blood and flesh flying everywhere. The battle is extremely brutal!

This is all without either side deploying their main forces. If nothing unexpected happens, the decisive battle will take place in the Hidden Immortal Sea in the northeast.

Heaven Hunt Immortal Forest.

This place was once a place of enchanting scenery, with lush forests and countless exotic flowers and plants vying for attention, a sight to behold.

After the flames of war reached this place, it is now like a living hell! Limbs and severed bodies are flying everywhere, blood and flesh are rotting and covering the land for thousands of miles, the void is shattered and the earth is sinking!

But this did not affect the two armies in the slightest.

On this side of the Radiant Divine Kingdom, tens of millions of Radiant Immortal Soldiers, clad in heavy armor, surged forward like a torrent of steel, forming a powerful immortal formation and unleashing thunderous force.

"Fellow warriors! The people of the Evernight Empire are violent madmen, rats in the darkness. They dare to lay their hands on our homeland and slaughter our families! We must not let them set foot in the Radiant Divine Kingdom. Slaughter them all! Victory for Light!"

After the Radiant Divine General was commanding the battle took his oath, he personally flew over and charged forward.

The powerful cultivation of a peak Immortal Venerable erupted instantly! The terrifying Heavenly Source Power instantly blasted the ten thousand Evernight soldiers in front of him into a bloody mist!

"We, the cultivators of Evernight! Our warriors! The cultivators of the Radiant Divine Kingdom, have always been so arrogant and conceited, looking down on us and regarding us as the embodiment of darkness, demons from the depths of the earth."

"If that's the case! We should use the blades in our hands to shatter their arrogance completely! Let them tremble forever under the divine might of our Evernight Empire! Let light be forever plunged into darkness!"

"Follow me and kill!"
