Palace of Empress Nuwa.
Nuwa, who had been cultivating, was jolted awake by the violent laws of the Saint realm. She abruptly opened her eyes and gazed toward the human tribes from above the Thirty-Three Heavens.
"A battle between Saints has actually erupted!"
She was slightly startled.
Saints had not appeared for countless ages, and an all-out battle between Saints had never occurred. The Saints had clashed before, but never had a true battle between Saints broken out.
Yet Primordial Lord and Zhunti had just exchanged blows, and the conflict had already reached this point. They had truly lost their tempers.
She immediately unfurled the Map of Mountains and Rivers. Majestic Saint laws swept across the Great Wilderness, shielding the entire Great Wilderness.
A battle between Saints was far too terrifying. A casual exchange could shatter the land of the Great Wilderness.
Moreover, this battle was taking place above a human tribe.
As the Sage Mother of Humanity, she had been restricted by the Heavenly Dao during the Witch-Demon Calamity. By Dao Ancestor Hongjun's order, she had been confined to the Palace of Empress Nuwa, able only to watch humanity suffer.
Today, there were no restrictions, yet humanity had once again encountered such a disaster.
As the Sage Mother of Humanity, I will never abandon my people again!
"To face two Saints alone—Jade Purity Saint truly has tremendous courage!"
Netherworld Sea of Blood.
Ancestor Minghe stood atop the surging waves of the blood sea, gazing toward the human tribe with deep eyes.
A battle between Saints was exceedingly rare, let alone one person fighting two Saints alone.
What shocked him even more was that Primordial Lord had faced two Saints alone without being defeated. Instead, he had overwhelmed the Two Sages of the West in terms of strength.
"Jade Purity Saint has grown stronger again. Is this the result of the fortune brought by humanity?"
Heavenly Court.
Haotian was in the Hall of Miraculous Mist. With the Haotian Mirror, he saw the battle between Saints erupting above the Fengyan Tribe. His eyes shone brightly, and ambition surged in his heart.
In the past, he had been Dao Ancestor Hongjun's Dao attendant, so he had naturally seen Primordial Lord of Heaven before.
At that time, Primordial Lord of Heaven had been powerful, but nowhere near as powerful as this.
At the very least, he had never been able to occupy the upper hand against the Two Sages of the West.
Such a change, occurring at this particular time, was surely related to the position of humanity's Sage Teacher.
Haotian's ambition began to grow, and he had already developed other plans.
"I have only recently taken charge of Heavenly Court, and everything is still waiting to be rebuilt. Perhaps my Heavenly Court can also take a share of humanity's fortune!"
His eyes gleamed brightly. He had clearly begun making plans.
Eight Sceneries Palace.
Xuandu hurried to the entrance of the main hall and respectfully said, "Disciple requests an audience with Master. The Two Sages of the West have gone to the Fengyan Tribe of Humanity to besiege Uncle-Master Primordial Lord. Such conduct is beneath a Saint!"
"I already know."
Within the Eight Sceneries Palace, the indifferent voice of the Grand Supreme Elder Lord of Morality rang out.
His expression was neither joyful nor sorrowful. He had sensed it the moment the battle between Saints erupted. Now, a trace of anger appeared in his wise eyes.
Good, Zhunti. Jieyin.
They had actually dared to bully people right on top of the Three Pure Ones!
Although he revered Non-action governance, that merely meant following the natural course of things. It did not mean doing nothing.
What was more, the relationship between the three brothers had only just begun to ease when this incident occurred.
Zhunti and Jieyin had truly chosen the wrong path!
Then he walked straight out of the Eight Sceneries Palace.
Jade Palace.
Sovereign Lord of the Heavens wore a purple robe. Laws circulated around him, at times manifesting boundless killing intent, and at times transforming into illusory Dao swords.
It was incomparably profound.
At this moment, a trace of anger appeared on his face. He then walked straight out of the Jade Palace and headed toward the Fengyan Tribe.
He was naturally going to help Primordial Lord.
If this had happened in the past, he would have pondered for a long time even for the sake of the brotherhood between the Three Pure Ones.
But things were different now. He could see that his second brother had already let go of the prejudices in his heart. The incident at the Palace of Empress Nuwa had been proof of that.
Moreover, his trip today was not entirely for Primordial Lord.
More importantly, it concerned the dignity of the Three Pure Ones!
Their blood ran thicker than water. Even if they fought among themselves, it was not anyone else's place to interfere!
Besides, the Two Sages of the West had come all the way from the West to the East and were using numbers to overwhelm the few.
Were they targeting Primordial Lord?
No!
They were trampling on the dignity of the Three Pure Ones!
Good, Zhunti. Jieyin.
Today, you will pay the price for what you have done!
It was not only them. At this moment, the entire Great Wilderness was shaken, and everyone turned their gazes toward the Fengyan Tribe of Humanity.
After all, a battle between Saints was far too unusual.
How could one see such a thing in ordinary times?
But now, the opportunity was right before them!
Yet at the center of the battlefield,
Primordial Lord held the Pangu Banner, his expression calm.
The Two Sages of the West, however, both wore solemn expressions.
"Gasp! How did this Primordial Lord become so powerful?"
Zhunti sucked in a breath of cold air. His webbing between thumb and index finger throbbed with pain, while the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree in his hand trembled incessantly. The impact of their recent exchange was still vivid in his mind.
He knew that his strength was inferior to Primordial Lord's.
But he and his senior brother Jieyin had joined forces. Two Saints attacking together was not a simple matter of adding their numbers. In a battle between Saints, even the slightest difference could determine the outcome.
Yet what was the result?
Primordial Lord had suppressed them!
When had Primordial Lord become so powerful?
It was beyond belief!
Jieyin's brows drew tightly together. His already sorrowful face became even uglier.
Primordial Lord's strength was completely beyond his expectations.
After all, even if there was a difference in cultivation realm, there were two of them.
How could Primordial Lord suppress them so thoroughly?
It was simply inconceivable!
Before he could speak, a vast Saintly Voice suddenly rang out through the void.
"Jieyin, Zhunti, do you think the Three Pure Ones are easy to bully?!"
An unfamiliar, ancient voice descended from the Thirty-Three Heavens.
Boundless immortal light rose, brilliant and blazing. Deep within the dazzling immortal light, an aged figure stepped through the void.
He came from afar, each step landing as if upon a spatial node. In an instant, he crossed millions of miles.
Above the aged figure's head stood a towering Nine-Layered Pagoda.
Boundless Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi descended from it.
The myriad heavens retreated, and the ten thousand laws could not invade.
This person was none other than Taiqing Moral Heavenly Venerate!
"You impoverished western wretches! You're using numbers to bully the few, bullying the Three Pure Ones far too much!"
The voice was domineering beyond compare.
As the voice fell, a purple-robed Daoist walked through the boundless void. Astral winds whipped around him, while dense sword light intertwined and reflected across his body.
Behind him, a long river emerged. Within it, immeasurable sword intent manifested. In a daze, one could see sword immortals roaming through the river, leaving behind imprints, their Dao fruits reflecting upon its waters.
This was none other than the River of Sword Dao!
At this moment, it guarded the Daoist from behind. With his arrival, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth fused with the dense sword intent in the void, transforming into swords of Spiritual Qi.
The long swords linked tip to tail, actually spreading a vast ocean of swords across the sky.
Looking closely at the individual swords, one would find them seemingly endowed with life as they roamed and circulated within the ocean.
The ringing of swords echoed again and again.
They seemed to be rejoicing and paying homage.
This was the transformation of Dao fruits after sword intent had reached its absolute limit!
The identity of this person was already obvious.
Sovereign Lord of the Heavens had arrived in a fury that reached the heavens!
At this moment, with the Three Pure Ones entering the fray, five Saints stood together, and the battlefield escalated!
