Ch. 601Touching the Limit, the Heaven Soul Empire's Declaration
Tai Tan and Du Busi discovered that their battle had opened a path for them to break through to the Limit, while the Heaven Soul Empire declared its support for the Ice Snow Palace. The news reached Dou Ling Emperor Xue Tianyi, who realized his empire was running out of options.
- Tai Tan and Du Busi fought from day into night, and Niu Tian recognized that their battle had loosened the bottleneck keeping them from the Limit.
- Niu Tian took Wang Dong'er and Tai Tan away without revealing their breakthrough opportunity, while Du Busi privately told Lao Jin that he would enter seclusion to reach the Limit.
- Lao Jin took charge of the Body Sect and warned its elders to avoid provoking the Ice Snow Palace.
- The Heaven Soul Empire declared that it and the Body Sect would support the Ice Snow Palace, shocking the continent after the Star Luo Empire had already made the same choice.
- Emperor Xue Tianyi heard the declaration after returning from crushing a noble faction and wondered how events had changed so quickly.
