The First Emperor of the Primordial Era: Shrouding the Heavens

Chapter 15 Heavenly Court's Reckoning

"Gentlemen, you'd better make plans soon!"

Jiang Ling spoke, saying that he could not change or interfere with the Supreme's choice regarding the forbidden zone.

"Since things have come to this, we have no choice but to continue!"

"That's right, although the risks are high, it doesn't necessarily mean there's no hope of success!"

"We've already died once, why would we be afraid of the risks?"

Apart from Yin Tianzi, all the other supreme beings in the forbidden zones wore fearless expressions.

"In that case, I'll take my leave!"

Jiang Ling spoke up, saying that he had already gained a lot and there was no need to waste any more time in the underworld.

"Fellow Daoist, do you want to become an Emperor?"

As he was leaving, the Underworld Emperor asked a question.

"The Emperor is nothing but a loser; how can he compare to me!"

Jiang Ling said without turning her head, and then stepped onto the golden road and left the underworld.

"These are turbulent times; let's hope he doesn't repeat the mistakes of the Emperor!"

Watching Jiang Ling's departing figure, the Supreme Prison Suppressor spoke.

"So what? Without becoming an immortal, even if the Emperor were resurrected, he couldn't defy the heavens!"

A faint voice echoed from within the Hall of Longevity.

The Celestial Venerable of Immortality, who had not shown himself until now, spoke.

"Indeed, even someone as powerful as an Emperor cannot withstand our combined efforts!"

The Supreme Prison Suppressor nodded.

In the Wutong Starfield, a fierce and brutal battle is unfolding.

As numerous quasi-saints at their peak clashed, galaxies shattered, supreme laws prostrated themselves, and stars trembled.

Qin Wuxiang, under the Dao Court, joined forces with Ye Wujiang, a descendant of the Heavenly Emperor, to besiege and kill Yu Zhe.

"Hahaha, Yu Zhe, you've finally met your match! Being surrounded and attacked isn't a pleasant experience, is it!"

A hearty laugh rang out, and an elderly man with white hair arrived. He looked at Yu Zhe, who was trapped in the formation and being surrounded and killed, and laughed loudly.

"Yan Qi, it's you!"

Looking at the white-haired old man, Yu Zhe's face became even more gloomy.

"Naturally, it was me. I never imagined that the former heir of the Heavenly Court would meet such an end. Fellow Daoists in heaven would surely be very pleased to see this!"

Tears welled in Yan Qi's large eyes as he looked at Yu Zhe with murderous intent.

"The Eighth Divine General of the Ancient Heavenly Court!"

In the distance, several Quasi-Venerables under Yu Zhe's command also noticed that Yan Qi's expression had become solemn.

"What are you doing here? Where are Qianjun and the others?"

Yu Zhe asked unwillingly, according to his and the strong members of the forbidden zone's battle plan, Yan Qi should be engaged in a fierce battle with Qian Jun of the forbidden zone at this moment.

"Now that I've arrived, their fate is obvious!"

Yan Qi replied, the killing intent in his eyes almost solidifying.

"Impossible! You think you can do that?"

Yu Zhe roared, completely disbelieving Yan Qi's words.

"At this point, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, because you're about to die!"

Just as Yu Zhe suspected, Yan Qi did not kill Qian Jun.

He couldn't do it either; strictly speaking, there's still a big gap between Yanqi and Qianjun.

That is because his blood energy is not as abundant as Qianjun's. Qianjun, as an unparalleled expert under the command of the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone, is also an unparalleled expert who has established his own path.

Moreover, most of the time it is sealed within the divine source of the forbidden zone, so relatively little blood energy is lost.

Although Yan Qi also sealed himself away, for ten thousand years, whenever the remnants of the Heavenly Court encountered an insurmountable enemy, he had to break free of his seal and go out to fight the enemy.

With this ebb and flow, his vital energy was quickly depleted.

Even with the remnants of the Heavenly Court providing numerous miraculous medicines, it was impossible to reverse the decline in his vitality.

As if to confirm Yu Zhe's suspicions, a voice came from across the endless star field.

"Fellow Daoist, don't listen to his nonsense. He's just a Quasi-Venerable whose blood energy is about to be exhausted. He thinks he can kill us? What a joke!"

"If it weren't for the advantage of the immortal artifact, even ten of you wouldn't be a match for you!"

Just then, a streak of light from the depths of the universe arrived at the Wutong Starfield at breakneck speed, carrying several figures with it.

The newcomer was dressed in jet-black armor, with a tall and slender figure, and held a blood-stained halberd in his hand.

"Qianjun, you're really courting death! You've already retreated to the forbidden area, yet you still come out to seek your own demise."

Upon seeing Qianjun arrive, Yanqi produced a green glow in his hand, and the Immortal Ascension Cauldron reappeared.

"Now that the Heavenly Court has been established, you are all remnants of the old era, vainly hoping to restore the glory of the Heavenly Court. You are the ones who are courting death."

Qianjun spoke, intentionally trying to sow discord between Qin Wuxiang and the remnants of the Heavenly Court.

In fact, the Daoist army led by Qin Wuxiang and the Heavenly Court were not allies.

Whether it's the divine dynasty under Yu Zhe's command or the powerful figures of the remnants of the Heavenly Court, they are all their targets.

However, because Yu Zhe was too strong, they temporarily joined forces.

"So what? No matter how the world changes, you all deserve to die!"

Yan Qi continued, the hatred in his voice shocking everyone.

"Since the Daoist Court destroyed you, we can also join the Daoist Court and serve the First Emperor!"

Ye Wujiang spoke, looking at Qin Wuxiang.

"Indeed, the Dao Court now reigns supreme and needs powerful figures. If we eliminate you all, it wouldn't be impossible to merge the entire remaining branch of the Heavenly Court into it!"

Yan Qi spoke, explaining that for these wandering souls, the greatest motivation to live in this world was revenge.

They sought revenge against the several supreme beings who destroyed the Heavenly Court, as well as Yu Zhe.

They were willing to pay any price for revenge. Even if Jiang Ling offered to kill the culprit who destroyed the Heavenly Court if they handed over the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, they would not hesitate in the slightest.

"That's a brilliant plan!"

Yu Zhe sneered, "The Emperor has already passed away. The era that belonged to him and the Heavenly Court is long gone."

If the remnants of the Heavenly Court want to continue in the future, they must make a choice.

Without a doubt, a Daoist temple with multiple generations of enlightened beings is the best choice.

Those who attain enlightenment can live for over 20,000 years. With the addition of the elixir of immortality, they can live a second life. For the next 50,000 years, the Dao Court will rule, and no one can change that.

In 50,000 years, as long as the Heavenly Court lineage joins the Dao Court, it will inevitably accumulate more resources and strength, and even waging war against each forbidden zone will not be a problem.

"Further words are useless, just kill them!"

Ye Wujiang spoke, and charged at Yu Zhe first.

As if it were a signal, following Ye Wujiang's move, the other powerful figures of the Heavenly Court also began to act.

Yan Qi drove the Immortal Cauldron and charged towards Qian Jun.

The current situation is in their favor. As long as they can hold off Qian Qianjun, Yu Zhe will have no chance of defying fate.

"kill!"

Yu Zhe took out the Five-Colored Heavenly Blade, cleaving across the star field. With a single slash, it resembled a Milky Way tearing through the sky.

It must be said that Yu Zhe is really strong. Even when trapped in the magic array, he was able to handle the combined forces of Qin Wuxiang and Ye Wujiang with ease.

"You old codger, have the guts to put down the Ascension Cauldron and fight me one-on-one."

Qianjun shouted, and the Immortal Cauldron in Yan Qi's hands seemed to be truly revived. The incomparably brilliant immortal laws were like a true immortal descending to earth, and the fluctuations it emitted were too terrifying.

Although Qianjun is very strong, he cannot withstand a true immortal artifact. If it were a Heavenly Venerable Dao Weapon, he would be somewhat confident that he could hold it off for a while.

However, the Immortal Ascension Cauldron is virtually unbeatable. None of his supernatural powers can harm it in the slightest. On the contrary, flying out of the cauldron's walls to face the illusory immortal spirits would cause him a great deal of trouble.

"What need is there for morality when dealing with traitors like you?"

Yan Qi said dismissively, his divine power surging from his hands.

"kill!"

Under Qin Wuxiang's leadership, the Daoist lineage members, including those with weaker abilities, gradually withdrew from the battlefield while Yan Qi and Qian Jun were locked in a fierce battle.
