The Heavenly Court's army did not withdraw from the Northern Domain. Instead, it faced off against the Crimson Dragon Mountain Range, with no intention of merely stalling for time.
But it was not in a hurry to advance recklessly and seek a quick decisive battle with the Great Crimson Heavenly Dragon, either.
Instead, Haotian calmly ordered the Heavenly Court Main Force to spread out across the Northern Domain.
They advanced directly toward the Crimson Dragon Mountain Range in a sweeping net.
The Great Crimson Heavenly Dragon's bloody Blood Sacrifice methods and his wholesale slaughter of the Northern Domain's various immortal and divine factions
had caused the many factions that had once been under the rule of the Crimson Heavenly Court to suffer heavy losses.
On top of that, the entire Northern Domain was now suffering from severe demonic chaos, leaving everyone in a state of panic.
Faced with the invading Heavenly Court army, they had neither the strength nor the will to resist.
The various immortal and divine factions, large and small, south of the Crimson Dragon Mountain Range in the southern part of the Northern Domain
all submitted when the Heavenly Court army swept through.
Those that refused to submit were slaughtered to the last.
The Great Crimson Heavenly Dragon's bloody atrocities had instead helped the Heavenly Court conquer the Northern Domain's factions even more smoothly.
By this point, the various immortal and divine factions outside the Northern Domain had also begun to look grim.
They had never imagined that the Heavenly Court would become the ultimate beneficiary.
The rules that had originally shackled the Heavenly Court's expansion had been broken in the Northern Domain.
Now, under the banner of suppressing the Crimson Heaven Rebels, the Heavenly Court was wantonly attacking cities and seizing territory throughout the Northern Domain.
