682: Chapter 682 The Great Battle Begins, the Three Holy Sovereigns Arrive
"Let's go!" Hun Tiandi spoke indifferently. The army marched from north to south along the pre-established route.
Two months later, the army finally reached a valley to rest and reorganize. Hun Tiandi sat in the main tent, with General Ye Wudi and other high-ranking officials below him.
"Your Majesty, when do we act?" General Ye Wudi asked in a booming voice.
"Wait a bit longer. The three Celestial Dynasties are the main force. Their armies won't move that fast. We must coordinate with them, but we won't be cannon fodder!"
Hun Tiandi said indifferently.
Everyone nodded, knowing that all of this was within his calculations.
After waiting for ten days, the army finally set off again toward the Cangtian Holy Land. The First Legion, led by General Ye Wudi, had long since undergone a complete transformation.
The military appearance and discipline were truly shocking!
After another five months of marching, they finally saw the Cangtian Mountains. Looking at that vast territory, Hun Tiandi took a deep breath.
Back again? Past causes, today's effects.
At the same time, the armies of the three Celestial Dynasties had arrived outside the Cangtian Mountains. Each dynasty had twenty armies, totaling sixty armies.
Like sixty long blades, they carved their way into the depths of the Cangtian Mountains from different directions.
Above the mountain range, three patches of dark clouds loomed, approaching the Cangtian Holy Land with increasing intensity.
The main forces of the three Celestial Dynasties and the Sovereigns of the Celestial Dynasty.
The Sovereigns stood high above, while countless troops below rapidly approached, surrounding the Cangtian Mountains.
Nian Haocang, Emperor Gu Xuan, and Jiang Chonghuan—the three Sovereigns of the Celestial Dynasty were about to descend.
Cangtian Holy Land.
At this moment, Buddhist chants echoed through the Holy Land. Countless monks and nuns recited scriptures, while martial monks wielded various weapons, looking like wrathful Vajras ready to subdue demons.
Past Amitabha Buddha, Present Guiyuan Buddha, and Future Jinchan Buddha.
They sat upon golden lotus pedestals, surrounded by a group of Bodhisattvas and a large number of Arhats on the periphery. This was the strength of the Cangtian Holy Land.
"Notify the commanders of our external allies and allied Sects. The armies of the three Celestial Dynasties have arrived. Tell them to meet the enemy!"
Present Guiyuan Buddha said indifferently.
"Yes!" An Arhat immediately relayed the message, flying out from the Buddhist Altar and rushing beyond the Holy Land.
Outside the Cangtian Holy Land, a massive army had gathered, consisting of the many Imperial Dynasties and Sects that the Holy Land had won over.
Having joined the Holy Land, they shared its honor and disgrace. Of course, many Sects in the world had also been forcibly converted and reduced to subordinates.
"Guiyuan Buddha has ordered the allied Sects and dynasties to move out and block the armies of the three Celestial Dynasties!" the arriving Arhat shouted.
"We obey the Buddha's command!" everyone immediately nodded.
To be used as cannon fodder? Although these people were subordinates, they understood the situation clearly.
As the vanguard, how could they compare to the main legions led by the Sovereigns of the Celestial Dynasty when facing their vanguards?
Clearly, these people were more willing to face the enemy's vanguard.
They charged out in different directions.
Outside the Cangtian Mountains, numerous third-party forces also stood by, remaining neutral and purely looking to fish in troubled waters. They would help whichever side showed no sign of defeat.
If one side emerged victorious, they would strike without hesitation.
One army happened to encounter a peerless beauty—it was Princess Zi Xun, with a small butterfly, the Ancestral Butterfly, perched on her shoulder.
Cangtian Sect.
The direction they chose was precisely the north where Hun Tiandi was located. After the killing of Cang Chengjun, the Cangtian Sect Master had immediately sent people to investigate.
Who exactly was it that killed his son?
The target was locked onto Hun Tiandi. The hatred for his son's death pierced through his heart.
After Guiyuan Buddha gave the order, the Cangtian Sect Master did not hesitate to lead his Sect's army, Disciples, and Elders to surround and kill Hun Tiandi.
Hun Tiandi led the army, pressing forward with a million troops as General Ye Wudi personally took command.
"The great war begins. Kill!" Hun Tiandi ordered.
"Yes!" The soldiers obeyed, deploying their battle formations. The battle line stretched for a hundred miles, killing their way inward inch by inch.
Finally, enemies arrived at their doorstep!
They were the Disciples and Elders of the Cangtian Sect, arriving with a surging, malevolent Evil Qi.
"Cangtian Sect? Reporting to the Sect Master, enemies have been spotted ahead, approaching rapidly."
"What is their banner?" the Cangtian Sect Master asked.
"Hun!" the scout immediately replied.
"Oh no, it's the Emperor of the Dazheng Empire, that ruthless man, Hun Tiandi!" an Elder beside him cried out in alarm.
"Hun Tiandi? The Prodigy who wiped out the Heavenly Mansion Alliance, kidnapped the Celestial Dynasty's princess, and killed the Saint?"
The Cangtian Sect Master said coldly. How could he not know Hun Tiandi's famous name?
"Sect Master, this man is a monster. I fear we are no match for him!" an Elder said in fear.
"Oh? Then go tell that to Guiyuan Buddha. There is no other way. Marshal the troops to meet the enemy!" the Cangtian Sect Master barked.
"Yes!" Immediately, the subordinates were notified to wave the flags and issue orders.
The Elder was drenched in cold sweat, clearly terrified of Hun Tiandi's reputation.
"Fine. Notify the other Imperial Dynasties and Sects to send reinforcements!" The Cangtian Sect Master sought reinforcements even as he prepared for battle.
Hun Tiandi sneered. The Dazheng Empire was no longer what it used to be; this time, he had brought out the experts of the court.
"General Ye Wudi, besiege the point to strike the reinforcements. Kill!" Hun Tiandi ordered.
"Yes!" Soon the armies clashed. Yan Xing and other experts flew out to engage the Elders of the Cangtian Sect.
General Ye Wudi commanded the army, charging directly into the battlefield in a bloody slaughter.
Hun Tiandi stood atop a mountain peak, with several Dazheng experts standing behind him. Those deployed were all elites.
They were steamrolling the battlefield!
"Sect Master, he is a monster!" the Elder cried in terror.
"Keep your eyes on him! Kill!" The Cangtian Sect Master's eyes were bloodshot. Over three days, nearly eighty percent of the Cangtian Sect's army and experts had been wiped out.
Outside the Cangtian Mountains, the sky was pitch black, blotting out the sun.
The three Sovereigns of the Celestial Dynasty finally descended upon the Cangtian Holy Land.
In the west, Nian Haocang stood high above, with countless experts, armies, and the Bear Clan below him.
In the south, Emperor Gu Xuan stood in the sky, with countless armies and experts below.
In the east, Jiang Chonghuan sat high in the air, with countless experts and Three-legged Crow below.
The main armies of the three dynasties stopped outside the Cangtian Mountains, staring coldly into the depths of the range.
In the west, Nian Haocang's expression turned cold as he spoke: "Gui Di, Gantian Holy Capital."
In the south, Emperor Gu Xuan stood in the sky and spoke: "Heavenly Master, Xuantian Holy Capital."
In the east, Jiang Chonghuan sat high up and said coldly: "Di Ming, Jiangtian Holy Capital."
"Yes!" Responses rang out simultaneously from within the three dynasties.
Rumble!
Three different worlds appeared as the surrounding environment rumbled and changed. The previous rivers and mountains vanished, as if enveloped by a world.
They were slowly replaced, forming three new environments.
In the west, Luck surged as countless buildings rose from the ground and floating islands hung in the air. The heavens and earth changed color, manifesting the grand scenery of the Gantian Holy Capital.
Through Feng Shui Arts, a Derivative Realm was created, manifesting a Gantian Holy Capital that was exactly the same as the original.
This was the might of Nian Haocang.
Gui Di stabilized the Derivative Realm, which was controlled by Nian Haocang.
Similarly, in the south, a Xuantian Holy Capital rose from the ground, completely transforming the world. In the east, a massive city also appeared, its Aura overwhelming.
The three majestic Holy Capitals descended upon the Cangtian Holy Land.
With a roar, they began to grind into the Cangtian Mountains. This was not the martial power of a single person, but the expansion of the Derivative Realms.
Wherever they passed, not a blade of grass remained, all living beings were extinguished, and the land was leveled.
This was the power of ultimate Feng Shui Arts. The power of the Derivative Realm was like a giant millstone, crushing any obstacle in its path.
Within the Derivative Realms, there was no pressure from the Cangtian Holy Land's mountains; it had all vanished.
From an immense distance, Hun Tiandi watched a world rolling forward in the distance, not daring to approach.
A chill rose in his heart. Even though he was a One-star Dou Zun expert, he would be powerless if he tried to block the path of a Derivative Realm.
Hun Tiandi led his army forward bit by bit.
"Come out!" Mr. Hun suddenly said indifferently.
Immediately, a woman in a light green dress appeared, standing not far away. Liu Ling and the others did not speak.
"Yao Ling, why are you here?" Hun Tiandi asked.
Yao Ling's gaze was somewhat complicated. She had seen Hun Tiandi's army several days ago and had been following behind them the whole way.
"The news of the three Celestial Dynasties besieging the Cangtian Holy Land has spread throughout the Central Plains. Countless experts have come to watch. I'm just here to see the excitement!" Yao Ling said indifferently.
See the excitement? Hun Tiandi smiled. Indeed, for such a once-in-a-millennium event, how could there not be experts coming in secret?
"Come, come with me to take a look!" Hun Tiandi invited.
"Mhm!" Yao Ling nodded slightly and followed along.
The feelings between the two were very complicated and could not be easily untangled in a short time.
