"His Majesty."
An eight-winged Main God flew in from behind and stopped a hundred feet behind the Sun God, bowing respectfully. "The fleet of the Northern Spirit Empire has arrived at the designated coordinates. His God of Law has sent a message inviting you to a meeting."
The Sun God did not turn around, but merely nodded slightly.
The next moment, his figure had disappeared from the Subordinate God.
In another part of the Chaos Sea, another crack is slowly healing.
Unlike the magnificent and dazzling Divine Realm fleet, this area was filled with a cold, silvery-white light. The light was not dazzling, but it was unsettling—it was the power of order, the manifestation of laws, and the ultimate principle governing all things.
The fleet of the Northern Spirit Empire hovered silently in the chaos.
Calling it a "fleet" might not be accurate, because what comes into view is an entire moving civilization.
At its very core stood a colossal celestial body, larger than any other plane—a "Worldship," a war fortress transformed from an entire plane. The Worldship's hull was made of a silvery-white alloy, each armor plate inscribed with dense chains of divine order. Billions of cannons extended from every part of the hull, the smallest capable of easily annihilating a Void star. Surrounding the Worldship were tens of thousands of warships of varying sizes, forming a sophisticated three-dimensional defensive formation.
No two warships are exactly alike. Some resemble giant beasts, some birds, some unfolded scrolls, and some irregular geometric shapes. But they all share one thing in common: coldness, precision, and perfect order. The trajectory of each warship is meticulously calculated, and the distance between them is accurate to the millimeter, as if an invisible giant hand is controlling everything.
At the very top of the World Ship is a huge, transparent, domed hall.
There were no walls in the hall, only a flow of information woven from countless light screens. Billions of data flashed, flowed, were analyzed, and deduced within it, with massive amounts of information being processed every moment. In the center of the hall, a tall, slender figure stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the chaos outside the dome.
Northern Spirit Empire - God of Law
He wore a long, silver-white robe, devoid of any decoration, its simplicity bordering on the sacred and inviolable. His face was handsome yet cold, like the most perfect sculpture, revealing no emotion whatsoever. Most striking were his eyes—eyes without pupils, only countless tiny streams of data flowing slowly within them, as if they could see through the laws and essence of everything in the world.
Beside him floated the Holy Grail of Origin, ethereal as a bubble, seemingly about to vanish from this world at any moment, yet also capable of creating everything from nothingness. Within the Grail, a wisp of chaotic light slowly rotated. At first glance, the light appeared extremely small, but upon closer inspection, it seemed to contain the birth and Destruction of an entire universe, as if it were the beginning of all things, the origin of all laws, and the ultimate convergence of existence and nothingness.
"Your Excellency God of Law."
A mechanical voice echoed from the Void: "The Divine Realm Fleet has arrived at the designated coordinates. The Eternity Sun God is moving towards this location and is expected to arrive in 37.69 seconds."
The God of Law nodded slightly and remained silent.
37.69 seconds later, in the center of the domed hall, a golden flame suddenly ignited. The flame expanded instantly, transforming into a majestic figure— the Eternity Sun God —who descended across the sky.
"God of Law."
The voice of the Sun God, like the roar of the sun, echoed throughout the hall, "Your legion is three hours behind schedule."
"We encountered three ancient chaotic beasts." The God of Law turned around, his tone as calm as still water. "One of them is at the Half-Step Eternity level; clearing them out will take time."
"Half-Step Eternity- level ancient beast?" The Sun God raised an eyebrow. "With your strength, you shouldn't have been dragging this out for so long."
The God of Law did not answer, but merely glanced at the Holy Grail of Origin beside him.
The Sun God's gaze also fell on the Holy Grail, his pupils contracting slightly. He knew, of course, what it meant for an opponent to make the God of Law use the Holy Grail of Origin —it was by no means a simple "cleansing," but a true battle.
"That's enough." The Sun God waved his hand, no longer asking questions. "Now that we've joined forces, let's speed things up. There are too many variables in the Chaos Sea; delay will only lead to unforeseen problems."
"No rush." God of Law raised his hand, and a screen of light unfolded before him. The screen displayed a massive star map, marking their location and the approximate direction of the Spirit Saint Domain. "Before that, we need to confirm one thing."
"What?"
"Profound Arms Realm."
The God of Law's voice remained calm, but the moment the words "Profound Arms Realm" were uttered, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became more tense.
The Sun God frowned. "Who opened up this realm? Does he dare to get involved in this mess?"
"It's not a matter of daring or not." The God of Law lightly tapped the light screen, instantly magnifying the star map to reveal the Chaos Sea spanning billions of miles around the Spirit Saint Domain. "While opening the chaotic passage, the Empire's reconnaissance forces detected three distinct spatial fluctuations. One is us, one is you, and the third—from another direction—is approaching the Spirit Saint Domain."
"Are you sure it's the Heavenly Emperor of Profound Arms?"
"The fluctuation characteristics of the Profound Arms Realm are different from ordinary realms. They cultivate the Dao through weapons, and the entire realm exudes a unique 'weapon' aura, as if billions of divine weapons are resonating." The God of Law paused, "This aura is wild and disordered, yet incredibly violent; it cannot escape my notice."
The Sun God was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled.
That smile was intense and domineering, seemingly capable of melting everything in the world. "Interesting. A Spirit Saint Domain has attracted three factions vying for power. And what a coincidence! The Spirit Saint Domain's Dao Beacon wasn't exposed earlier or later, but precisely when we set off, as if an invisible hand was manipulating things behind the scenes."
This clearly pointed remark caused even the usually calm God of Law to frown, clearly realizing just how deep the waters ran.
However, the God of Law quickly shook his head and said indifferently, "Regardless of whether someone is sabotaging us, our operation must continue. And one thing is certain: no One of Third-Step Eternity has been born in this Chaos Zone. Under such circumstances, even if the person behind this is very powerful, it is not enough to completely annihilate us. He most likely wants to cause us some trouble, or has some other purpose, or he may simply be an opponent of the Spirit Saint Domain, trying to trip up that Heavenly Emperor of Spirit Saint."
Upon hearing this, the Sun God remained silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Does the Heavenly Emperor of Spirit Saint possess such great power?"
"Whether he has the ability or not is unimportant," the God of Law said calmly. "What matters is what he possesses: a method to quickly purify impurities in the Power of Faith —this is useful to both of us. Your Divine Kingdom needs believers, and my empire needs a stable source of spiritual faith. As for the Heavenly Emperor of Profound Arms ..." He paused, "He wants the entire realm. Our goals do not conflict with his."
"The true intentions of the person behind this are still unknown, and the information we currently have is incomplete. The best approach now is to proceed step by step."
Upon hearing this, the Sun God nodded slightly.
So what you mean is?
"Joint."
The God of Law turned, his eyes, flowing like a stream of data, staring directly at the Sun God: "The Heavenly Emperor of Profound Arms is domineering and decisive, yet pragmatic. He knows that it won't be easy for the Profound Arms Realm alone to swallow the Spirit Saint Domain. What we need is the purification method; we have no interest in devouring realms. Rather than letting him wait on the sidelines, it's better to actively invite him to join forces. With the three of us combined, no matter how strong the Spirit Saint Domain, it won't be able to cause any trouble."
The Sun God stared at the God of Law for a long time, then suddenly burst into laughter.
"God of Law, you're still the same, always wanting to keep all variables in your grasp." His laughter paused, his eyes burning with a blazing sun. "But you're right, that Heavenly Emperor of Spirit Saint, though I've never met him, I've heard some rumors. At the Peak Supreme God realm, he could withstand the Eternal without defeat, created the Heavenly Net, created the two major cultivation systems of Divine Immortal and Heavenly Immortal, and wield the origin of the realm... Such a person is worth my full effort."
The Sun God turned to face the chaos beyond the dome, his golden robes billowing even without wind. "Then let's go. Let me see just what kind of prowess this person possesses, capable of defending the realm even under the siege of three Eternal!"
Chaos without end, vast and boundless.
After the alliance between the Divine Realm and the Northern Spirit Empire joined forces, the fleet's size increased several times over. Golden divine ships and silver-white technological warships were arranged in an alternating pattern, and Holy Light and the power of order fused together, opening up a wide passage in the Chaos Sea. The fleet advanced at a steady speed, and wherever it passed, the chaotic energy retreated, as if it too feared this invincible legion.
However, when the fleet reached a certain point, a sudden change occurred.
The God of Law was the first to notice the anomaly.
He was standing in the command hall of the World Ship, with countless light screens swirling around him. Suddenly, one of the light screens flickered violently, and an alarm blared.
"Sir! An unusual spatial fluctuation has been detected ahead!"
"Scale?"
"Analysis in progress... Preliminary assessment indicates it's a realm-level moving target! It's approximately 1200 chaotic distances away and is approaching in this direction!"
Data flowed faster in the eyes of the God of Law. He raised his hand, and an even more sophisticated light screen unfolded before him, displaying an image of the Chaos Sea ahead.
The image was initially blurry, consisting only of churning chaotic energy. But the next moment, the image suddenly became clear—it was a huge black shadow, slowly moving deep within the chaos.
That was a realm.
A realm that is moving.
It was so vast it was suffocating, appearing from afar like a continent floating in chaos. But unlike ordinary realms, this realm exuded an extremely unique aura—the sharpness of billions of divine weapons being unsheathed simultaneously, the resonance of swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks, and the embodiment of slaughter and battle intent.
On the outer edge of the realm, countless enormous phantom weapons swirled and rotated. There were ten-thousand-foot-long sabers that traversed the Void, towering giant swords that pointed straight to the heavens, divine spears that pierced through chaos, and sky-covering halberds that tore through Space-Time. Each of these phantoms exuded the aura of a supreme Supreme God, as if they were living beings guarding their Divine Kingdom.
"Profound Arms Realm." The God of Law uttered these four words softly.
At the same moment, the figure of the Sun God appeared outside the divine ship. He gazed at the colossal object slowly approaching in the distance, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.
"Interesting." The Sun God's voice carried a hint of excitement and solemnity. "The aura of the Heavenly Emperor of Profound Arms... this guy really did come in person."
"Furthermore, the Profound Arms Realm truly lives up to its reputation. Since each of their universes is forged from Xuanbing as its foundation, and the Xuanbing is connected to the life of its master, they operate in a unique cultivation system that is similar to World System but very different. They can move the entire world, and with the combined efforts of many masters, they can propel the Profound Arms Realm to ride the waves in the Chaos Sea," the Sun God murmured.
On the other side of chaos, at the core of the Profound Arms Realm, a figure was also gazing at the golden light in the distance.
Heavenly Emperor of Profound Arms.
He was not tall, and could even be described as somewhat ordinary. He wore a long black robe without any decoration, except for a seemingly ordinary long sword hanging at his waist. His face was resolute, like steel that had been forged through countless hammer blows, and his eyes were deep and sharp, as if they could see through all the illusions of the world.
He stood there quietly, yet gave people the illusion that he was not a person, but a divine sword drawn from its sheath, capable of cutting down anything that his blade pointed at.
Behind Him stood many figures—powerful beings from the Profound Arms Realm, each possessing an aura surpassing that of Supreme God. Their weapons varied: some wielded swords, some held knives, some carried spears, and some carried halberds, but their gazes were equally sharp and filled with fighting spirit.
"Heavenly Emperor," a figure stepped forward and bowed respectfully, "The allied forces of the Astral Realm's advanced civilization, the Divine Realm, and the Northern Spirit Empire have appeared ahead, their intentions unclear."
Heavenly Emperor of Profound Arms did not answer, but simply watched the two beams of light in the distance grow clearer and clearer.
"They've detected us," another figure said. "They're approaching. Heavenly Emperor, should we prepare for battle?"
"No need."
The Heavenly Emperor of Profound Arms finally spoke, his voice deep and powerful, like the echo of a blade striking metal, "They did not come here to fight."
"But--"
"If they wanted to fight, they wouldn't be approaching so leisurely." The corners of the Heavenly Emperor of Profound Arms's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile that wasn't quite a smile. "They would have launched an attack directly. The fact that they're like us, heading straight for the Spirit Saint Domain."
He paused, raised his hand, and gently placed it on the hilt of the sword at his waist. "Since we've run into each other, let's meet them. Let me see just how extraordinary these two Eternal of the Astral Realm truly are."
As soon as he finished speaking, the figure of Heavenly Emperor of Profound Arms had already disappeared from the spot.
In the Chaos Sea, three beams of light shone simultaneously.
One is golden red, one is dark red, and one is pure white.
They intertwined and collided, stirring up countless chaotic currents that surged and roared.
