"The lords of the Celestial Court's Ten Great Heaven Realms!"
A powerful cultivator cried out, his voice full of shock.
The Celestial Court was unquestionably the mightiest, most invincible force in the Eternal Immortal Realm!
Under its rule lay the boundless Ten Great Heaven Realms!
Each Heaven Realm had a lord!
Every one of those ten lords was a Peak Fifth-Epoch King!
They were the strongest beings beneath the Taboos!
And now, nine of the ten had arrived!
What a terrifying lineup!
What a staggering sight!
Nine streaks of divine light raced in from the horizon and landed in the area reserved for the Celestial Court—the most honored seats on the entire viewing platform!
The light faded, revealing nine figures.
Each stood impossibly tall, radiating an aura terrifying enough to suppress All Heavens.
Each wore a divine robe of the Celestial Court.
Embroidered on their robes were the emblems of their respective Heaven Realms, infused with boundless laws of the Great Dao.
The Nine Heaven Realm Lords took their seats as one.
Their gazes swept the surroundings, filled with authority and the disdain of those looking down from above.
The entire Heaven's Pride Battlefield fell silent.
Countless powerful cultivators held their breath.
Nine Heaven Realm Lords!
Nine of them!
On any ordinary day, seeing even one would have been an immense honor!
Yet today, nine had come at once!
That alone showed how grand this Heaven's Pride Gathering was!
"All nine Heaven Realm Lords are here..."
"What a terrifying display!"
"Wait, if there are ten Heaven Realm Lords, why did only nine come?"
"Where's the last one?"
A powerful cultivator noticed the discrepancy and voiced his confusion.
Just then, another rumble sounded from the horizon.
It was more terrifying than the previous nine rumbles combined!
An indescribable pressure rolled in
