Before long, under Huang Tian's command, the Blazing Flame Army below divided into four echelons.
The first echelon consisted of one immortal god, the second of ten World Master generals, the third of a hundred World Masters, and the fourth of the Domain Lords.
They stood in separate formations, each one silent, their eyes fixed on Huang Tian as they awaited his next command.
Yet Huang Tian made no further move. He descended from the air and turned his gaze toward Huang Wuye.
"My son, come here."
At his call, a million gazes below converged upon him.
Huang Wuye was somewhat stunned. It was his first time being watched face-to-face by so many people, and he was unaccustomed to it. But after a brief moment of distraction, he stepped forward.
As Huang Wuye slowly advanced, countless Blazing Flame Army soldiers released their imposing auras, pressing down upon him.
Feeling the pressure bearing down on him, Huang Wuye's lips curled into a faint smile. Not only did his steps not slow in the slightest, they became even faster.
He arrived before Huang Tian in an instant. Looking at the youth who stood nearly as tall as himself, Huang Tian's lips also curved upward.
Then he turned toward the million Blazing Flame Army soldiers below. His lips moved slightly, and a solemn voice carried across the ranks.
"I, Huang Tian, have had the fortune of commanding the Blazing Flame Army for two hundred thousand years. The Blazing Flame Army was founded countless eras ago and has protected the geniuses of our race. I thank you all for accompanying me through these two hundred thousand years. Now that I have become immortal, I am no longer suited to command the Blazing Flame Army. It is time to find a new commander for you
