Immortal Realm War

Ziwei vanished in a flash.

"Li Qiang!" Ziwei's voice was extremely cold, and beside him was the Great Elder, whose Nascent Soul had been destroyed and who had died.

"Quite fast, actually snatched one of the three major treatises of 'The Universe Shift'. By the way, the other two treatises are on the Second Elder and the Third Elder's Se Huai Nian. Alas, what a pity. If I had acted just a little faster, I could have snatched this treatise." Li Qiang said contentedly, standing on the God-Slaying Saber.

"Hmm, something was strange just now. When I killed that elder, Ziwei, you had already arrived. If you had intervened to save him, there might have been a chance to save the Great Elder's life. But you didn't care about the Great Elder's life. Ah, the moment the elder died, you were surprisingly fast and seized the Wheel!" Li Qiang said sarcastically.

Ziwei, however, kept a gloomy face.

Did he dare to stop him just now? Li Qiang's God-Slaying Saber could probably not be stopped even by a god. Did Ziwei dare to stop him? The clever Ziwei took advantage of the moment when the Great Elder died and the Wheel of Reincarnation appeared, and snatched it away, while Li Qiang had just sheathed his blade.

"You killed my Great Elder of the Purple Cloud Realm, do you think you can just leave?" Ziwei said coldly.

Li Qiang, however, remained completely unconcerned. He was never worried about the so-called "Universe Shift," for he was the inheritor of the Immortal Realm. Within the Immortal Realm, he was invincible; he was the creator. The primordial energy of the Immortal Realm was at his command. He could instantly halt an opponent's attack, and he could render an opponent immobile.

In the immortal realm, nothing can threaten him!

Therefore, Li Qiang was quite content. He never told anyone that he was Immortal Realm Inheritor, because if the Azure Emperor found out, Azure Emperor might order him to single-handedly destroy the Purple Cloud Realm. Although Li Qiang knew he had the strength to do so, he was unwilling to do so.

This operation was orchestrated by the Azure Emperor.

The Azure Emperor believed his side had more experts, so he decided to launch a sneak attack—using experts to ambush experts! Li Qiang's Dark Gold Divine Power was also remarkably effective. He had directly reached the strength of Great Luo Golden Immortal back then. Like Zhang Xingfeng, his Divine Sense was stronger than that of the immortals. The Azure Emperor knew this, which was why he sent him to launch the sneak attack.

However... Li Qiang was only distracting Ziwei and the others; the main force was still behind!

"Ah! All elders and Immortal Monarch, come here!" Ziwei suddenly shouted. He sensed that the Azure Emperor had suddenly appeared at the entrance of the Teleportation Array.

At this moment, many experts were already around Ziwei. Immediately, some other Immortal Monarch were about to rush over, but... the Azure Emperor and others had already appeared!

Slaughter!

It was an absolute massacre. On one side were the Azure Emperor Immortal Emperor, and on the other were the panicked Immortal Monarch. The Azure Emperor and his forces swept through the enemy with overwhelming force, killing more than a dozen Immortal Monarch in one fell swoop, while the remaining Immortal Monarch had already reached Ziwei's side.

Ziwei looked at Li Qiang, and then suddenly the Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor appeared behind him.

"Second Elder, Third Elder, activate the defense!" Ziwei announced in humiliation.

"Universe Shift" is the first defensive formation. This is its earliest name. To some extent, the defensive concept of "Universe Shift" is very similar to the Mustard Seed Space. "Universe Shift" seems to form another small space, in which experts like Ziwei and others at the Purple Cloud Realm are kept, but they do not come out.

Ziwei knew her side had too many experts; she couldn't compete with them. Putting aside everything else, if Li Qiang went berserk, it would be disastrous. Even if she used the "Heaven and Earth Universe Shift" to deal with Li Qiang, the Fengyuan Gate and the Tianlong Sect combined still had nearly twenty Immortal Emperor, while her Purple Cloud Realm only had eight left. The powerful Zi Yan and Da... had died!

Twenty against eight, that's a huge gap.

Therefore, Ziwei chose to be patient and gathered all her top experts, including those at the Immortal Monarch and Immortal Emperor levels, into the "Universe Shift".

Most importantly... the Universe Shift defense doesn't require teleportation, and therefore doesn't require Immortal Crystals! (Why is the Universe Shift defense so powerful yet doesn't require Immortal Crystals, while teleportation does? Think about it yourselves, hehe, I'll tell you later, or you can guess.)

"Ziwei, you really are a coward. I admire you! Chiyang, let's not stand on ceremony and just destroy the Purple Cloud Realm first," the Azure Emperor sneered.

Ziwei watched with icy eyes as the subordinates of the Azure Emperor and Heavenly Emperor destroyed the gates of the Purple Cloud Realm.

"Great Emperor, let's break out! Let's fight them!" One Immortal Monarch could no longer bear to see his sect's base so horribly destroyed.

"Calm down. We can rebuild the mountain gate if it's gone, but if we die, Purple Cloud Realm is truly finished. Don't panic, everyone. With a million troops attacking, no one can stop us!" Ziwei sneered.

The immortal army was just outside the Purple Cloud Realm City, and their speed was naturally fast. As soon as the generals received the telepathic message, the main force was immediately moved. They formed a square formation of 100,000 men, flew through the air, and charged directly towards the gate of the Purple Cloud Realm.

"Withdraw, that's enough this time. Let's go, their army is already here!" the Azure Emperor said to the Heavenly Emperor.

The Heavenly Emperor nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, that army of immortals, with 100,000 people in a single formation, attacking all at once, the power of that attack is beyond imagination. Even I estimate that they couldn't withstand such a powerful blow; they would be severely injured if not killed!"

Immediately, all the experts withdrew.

Ziwei watched with her Divine Sense as Azure Emperor and the others left before she withdrew her defenses. However, at this moment, Ziwei's face was extremely gloomy!

"This is intolerable! How dare the Fengyuan Gate and the Tianlong Sect be so arrogant! How can my Purple Cloud Realm tolerate them! Master, give the order! My million-strong army will move out together. No matter how many experts they have, we will just wipe them out!" said Yu Xi, one of the Ten Radiance Immortal Lords.

Ziwei's face was gloomy, and she remained silent.

Yu Yang then said, "Master, I think the Fengyuan Gate and the Tianlong Sect must be happy about their operation right now. The Fengyuan Gate is close to us, so I think it's very likely that they are Fengyuan Gate. Therefore, I think... we should go straight for the Tianlong Sect!"

Ziwei's eyes lit up, and her brows began to furrow...

"Alright, speed is what we need. There are almost no experts left in the Tianlong Sect. The experts from the Fengyuan Gate and the Tianlong Sect are all together. Hmph, get ready, we, the Purple Cloud Realm, along with our elders and the eight Immortal Emperor -level experts, will quickly attack the Tianlong Sect. The Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor can't always use their Divine Sense to investigate. As long as they are a little slower to discover us, we can seize the initiative! As long as we get to the Tianlong Sect first, we can..." Ziwei said, a cruel glint flashing across her face.

Yu Yang, however, flattered, "Master, the immortal army's strength isn't high. Let them go through the Teleportation Array like ordinary immortals to Fengyuan Gate. I believe the Azure Emperor and the others won't notice them, after all, there are too many immortals like that in the Immortal Realm! By the time they realize it, my million-strong army will probably be almost there. Hmph, a million-strong army attacking together, even a god couldn't stop them!" At this point, Yu Yang was already Killing Intent.

Upon hearing this, Ziwei laughed excitedly, "Good, good, good! Yuyang, if we win this time, I'll directly appoint you as an elder of my Purple Cloud Realm. Haha... Azure Emperor are only paying attention to Immortal Emperor level experts when they use their Divine Sense, how could they possibly pay attention to ordinary Earth Immortals? Good, good! Yuyang, I'm entrusting the matter of the Immortal Army to you, you can't let me down!"

"Yes, Master, please rest assured. Yu Yang will definitely not disappoint you this time," Yu Yang said confidently.

"Alright, Elders, and five more retainers, let's head to the Tianlong Sect! Let's go—" Ziwei acted swiftly and decisively, without resting, and led her men straight there.

The Azure Emperor said excitedly, "Haha, Chiyang, I'm so happy! We actually destroyed the gate of the Purple Cloud Realm! Haha... For so many years, I've wanted to teach Purple Cloud Realm a lesson. Now we've finally made Purple Cloud Realm lose face. I believe the entire Immortal Realm will know tomorrow that we destroyed the gate of the Purple Cloud Realm! Haha..." The Azure Emperor laughed very happily.

The Heavenly Emperor was also very pleased. The Purple Cloud Realm was the number one power in the Immortal Realm, and it had suppressed the two factions for a long time. This time, their attack killed an elder and more than a dozen Immortal Monarch, and destroyed the Purple Cloud Realm's mountain gate. They even forced Ziwei and the others to hide in the Universe Shift, afraid to come out.

How could the Heavenly Emperor and his people not be happy about something so painful?

"Let's go to my place and celebrate properly!" the Azure Emperor said to the Heavenly Emperor.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Emperor immediately said, "Alright, let's go to your territory and rest well, then prepare for the next move. This operation was quite successful; no one died. What we need is to destroy the Purple Cloud Realm with as little loss of strength as possible."

"Everyone, let us drink to this victory and celebrate our milestone!" The Azure Emperor said with a smile to the assembled Immortal Emperor.

The Immortal Emperor from the Heavenly Tianlong Sect and the Fengyuan Gate all raised their cups and drank heartily.

Li Qiang suddenly felt uneasy. He immediately searched with his Divine Sense and discovered the traces of eight Immortal Emperor level experts. A cold sweat broke out on his back, and he immediately said, "Master, Master, something terrible has happened! Ziwei is leading Immortal Emperor level experts from the Purple Cloud Realm to attack the Tianlong Sect."

Upon hearing this, all the Immortal Emperor were greatly alarmed. They all used their Divine Sense to search, and the Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor instantly discovered eight Immortal Emperors. After all, Immortal Emperor were rare in the entire Celestial Realm, and eight of them together were even more exceptional.

However, none of them noticed that some ordinary immortals were slowly moving towards the Fengyuan Gate.

"Yuanmu, something terrible has happened! We must take our leave!" The Heavenly Emperor was about to depart immediately; he couldn't wait any longer. Ziwei was already ahead of them, and at her speed, they couldn't catch up.

The Azure Emperor then said, "Chiyang, we are not at ease sending people from your Tianlong Sect alone. How about this, several elders from my Fengyuan Gate, along with my disciple Li Qiang, will go with you. This way, we will be more confident in dealing with the Purple Cloud Realm forces!"

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Emperor immediately felt confident. With an expert like Li Qiang and those other retainers, dealing with the Purple Cloud Realm would be a piece of cake.

"Yuanmu, I won't say much more about gratitude. Everyone, this is a critical moment for the Tianlong Sect. Please hurry and rush towards the Tianlong Sect as fast as you can. Everyone, follow me!" The Heavenly Emperor didn't even care about his wine cup and teleported away Teleportation.

The experts from the Tianlong Sect, the elders of the Fengyuan Gate, and Li Qian all Teleportation over there.

"Kill them all! Burn them all! Destroy them all! I want the Tianlong Sect to taste the pain of having their sect destroyed!" Ziwei roared madly. The other seven experts immediately rushed down. At this time, the Tianlong Sect had no experts left. Although they had formations, they were of no use to the Immortal Emperor.

Even the most powerful protective formations, such as the Blood Kill Gate's protective formation in the Demon Realm (which is also the Tianxin Sect's protective formation), can only withstand Immortal Monarch. Only now, with the Divine Stone used by Zhang Xingfeng, can the formation withstand the entry of Immortal Emperor.

Unfortunately, the Tianlong Sect doesn't have any Divine Stone, so...

"Hahaha... hahahaha... burn it, kill it, kill those Immortal Monarch, burn it, burn the main hall, the main palace, burn! burn! burn! kill! kill! kill!" Ziwei shouted madly, and at the same time, his Divine Sense was still paying attention to the whereabouts of the Heavenly Emperor and others.

After about half a cup of tea's time, Ziwei immediately said, "Time's up, everyone, let's go!"

The seven Immortal Emperor- level experts immediately began to escape with Ziwei, leaving behind only the half-destroyed Tianlong Sect mountain gate...

"Aaaaah... Ziwei, if I don't kill you, how can I, Chiyang, face my ancestors of the Tianlong Sect!" The Heavenly Emperor's hair and beard stood on end as he roared thunderously...

The other Immortal Emperor of the Tianlong Sect were also heartbroken as they looked at the devastation below. One by one, they rushed down, knowing that while the sect could be rebuilt, the dead could not be put to rest. These Immortal Emperor went to find their disciples.

A long time passed.

"What was the result?" The Heavenly Emperor took a deep breath, prepared to withstand a tremendous blow.

"Eleven Immortal Monarch have died. Fortunately, the other eight Immortal Monarch are not here and have gone to other places, otherwise..." the Great Elder of the Tianlong Sect said with lingering fear.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Emperor's heart trembled. The Immortal Monarch were the future pillars of their sects; how could the Heavenly Emperor not be heartbroken to see so many of them die? However, he also knew he was lucky; eight of them weren't within the sect's walls. If they had been, they would likely be finished too. After all, the difference in rank between Immortal Monarch and Immortal Emperor was immense.

These Immortal Monarch were not Zhang Xingfeng. Back when Zhang Xingfeng reached the early stage of Immortal Monarch, he was able to hold his own against the combined attacks of Ziwei and Zi Yan! Therefore, these Immortal Monarch all died one by one.

"This grudge must be avenged! Alright, tell the other eight Immortal Monarch to stay in their respective places and not participate in this battle. We cannot afford any more losses. Elders and Fengyuan Gate, Ziwei is currently heading towards the Fengyuan Gate. Let's all chase after her together, and then, together with the Azure Emperor and the others, we can wipe them out in one fell swoop!" The Heavenly Emperor shouted to the crowd.

Meanwhile, in the Qingjian Fengyuan Gate of the Fengyuan Sect.

As the Azure Emperor was searching with his Divine Sense, his expression suddenly changed.

"Oh no, a million-strong army has made its move!"
