Great Qin had stirred up storms in the Earth Immortal Realm for three whole eons, and its conflicts with the Schools of Thought had steadily deepened.
Confucius, the great master of Confucianism, had appeared, completely driving the Schools of Thought to stand against Great Qin.
They finally had the confidence to do so.
The Great Qin of today could also be called Immortal Qin. With the birth of Immortal Qin and the rise of the Great Tribulation, some long-lost old friends had returned as well.
Lü Dongbin, leader of the Eight Immortals, was the reincarnation of the Top-Grade Innate Divine who had once shaken the Prehistoric Universe—East King Duke, Emperor Donghua.
The birth of the Eight Immortals had been the work of Taoism's Three Pure Ones. The eight of them would span the entire End of Dharma Era and leave behind a bold mark amid the Great Tribulation of Heaven and Earth.
At this moment, Confucius stood at the heart of the Nine Provinces, Confucian Dao aura surging around him as it smashed straight into Immortal Qin's imperial fortune.
The Human Race's Cultural Vein trembled.
With the righteous path of Confucianism, he declared war on Immortal Qin across the void:
"Ying Zheng, you use imperial power to suppress the Schools of Thought and the Hegemonic Way to sever the Cultural Vein. Heaven and Earth will not tolerate you, and righteousness cannot survive."
"I, Kong Qiu, swear here—so long as Confucianism endures, Immortal Qin shall know no peace!"
"From this day forth, Confucianism and Immortal Qin shall fight until one side perishes!"
Vast righteous qi transformed into a sky-reaching ribbon and crashed violently against Immortal Qin's Imperial Might, making Heaven and Earth roar.
Seeing this, the Schools of Thought responded one after another, unleashing their ultimate arts and opposing Immortal Qin
