Chapter 1432 - 1423: Showdown

Chapter 1432: Chapter 1423: Showdown

Ten Thousand Demons Territory.

After Shangguan Huangji allied with the Void clan, it truly became a Ghost Domain.

In the pitch-black eternal starfield, soldiers from the Void clan rampaged wildly, resembling demons with grim faces, waving war knives that shattered mountains and rivers, leaving living beings in ruin.

The air of death enveloped the sky, covering the land, overflowing the universe!

At a glance.

The once prosperous land had turned to ruins!

On a certain star, Shangguan Huangji stood atop dark clouds, overlooking heaps of corpses below, his expression complex.

Once upon a time, he guarded this starfield as a protector, regarded by countless beings as a guardian deity, but now, he became the destroyer of this starfield.

"Was I wrong?"

Shangguan Huangji asked.

No one answered.

In his mind, many scenes flashed: the indifference of the Tianhe Royal Family, the slaughter from the Qin Dynasty, the tragic deaths of countless clansmen...

Thinking of this, he looked again at the destroyed mountains and rivers, seemingly without much emotion.

"I simply did what I had to do!"

Shangguan Huangji shook his head with a smile, slowly extended his right hand, and condensed a palm strike towards a distant giant mountain.

BOOM!

Amidst a roar.

The giant mountain collapsed, burying countless bones.

Dust clouds rolled up, obscuring the world, and when the wind arose, Shangguan Huangji’s figure had vanished, as if he had never been there.

At the center of Ten Thousand Demons Territory, amidst rows of military camps, Shangguan Huangji’s figure landed.

Immediately, a soldier greeted him, saluting and reporting: "General, the Left Minister asks you to go there!"

"Understood!"

Shangguan Huangji nodded and headed towards the central tent.

Upon entering the central tent, he found it crowded with figures, each of their expressions showing excitement and bloodlust, as if encountering a great event.

"Left Minister, what happened?"

Shangguan Huangji asked.

"Latest news, Tianhe Royal Family deployed troops, intending to reclaim the Ten Thousand Demons Territory!"

The Left Minister sat in the upper seat, speaking disdainfully.

"Left Minister, the strength of the Tianhe Royal Family does not match ours, this deployment may be a trap!"

Shangguan Huangji frowned slightly, reminding.

He had served the Tianhe Royal Family for hundreds of billions of years, understanding them well; prioritizing stability, they rarely launched attacks without assured victory.

"When a rabbit is with a lion, what do you think will happen?"

The Left Minister smiled faintly, asking.

"The rabbit will die!"

Shangguan Huangji replied without hesitation.

"Half correct!"

The Left Minister’s bright smile carried a hint of coldness: "Before a rabbit dies, it might turn red-eyed and bite, but ultimately it will perish!"

Shangguan Huangji fell silent.

Was the Tianhe Royal Family that rabbit?

"Shangguan Huangji, listen to orders!"

The Left Minister’s face became solemn, commanding loudly.

"Present!"

"I order you to lead the Shangguan Family legion as the vanguard, to confront the Tianhe Royal Family!" The Left Minister commanded.

"By command!"

Shangguan Huangji heard this, a cold gleam flashed in his eyes.

The moment for revenge had finally arrived!

He would make the people of the Tianhe Royal Family regret, he would let the souls of millions of Shangguan Family ancestors rest in peace!

...

Soul Return City!

Located at the western border of Ten Thousand Demons Territory, spanning over one million miles, dominated by black color, Immortal Pavilions floated in the air everywhere, powerful Immortal Arrays emanated terrifying immortal light, shaking the heavens.

This city was once a prosperous location, a trade hub between the Ten Thousand Demons Territory and the Immortal Forest Territory, bustling with people.

But now, a war took away all vitality.

On this day.

A legion appeared in the silent city, armored, wielding immortal weapons, expressions icy, hiding murderous intent.

Banners embroidered with the words ’Shangguan’ fluttered in the wind!

The leader was Shangguan Huangji, wielding a blood weapon, long black hair flying, eyes intimidating, revealing iron-blooded killing intent.

Upon entering the city, he immediately ordered to strengthen the Immortal Arrays, fortifying defenses around.

At the same time.

Heavenly River Jing also led his army into the Immortal Forest Territory for resting.

To defeat the Void clan, Heavenly River Jing spared nothing, mobilizing nearly all the power of the Heavenly River universe, forming eight major armies, totaling four billion people.

Among these eight major armies, the strongest was the Heavenly River Guards!

This was an entirely Tianhe Royal Family elite legion, structured for ten thousand men, with the lowest cultivation reaching the rule domain!

Besides the powerful legion, Heavenly River Jing mobilized many strong cultivators, awakened four sleeping ancestors, combined with Tian Yi, Elder Zong, Oriental Ao Gu, a total of ten Molding Dao Realm martial artists.

Ten figures!

This was a battle of heritage!

Only victory was permissible, not defeat!

"Order, assault Soul Return City!"

Four hours later, Heavenly River Jing gazed at the distant city, commanding with prestige.

"Advance!"

Elder Zong soared into the sky, leading a fifty-million strong legion acting as the vanguard, pouncing towards Soul Return City, infinite killing aura soaring, splitting the void.

Oriental Ao Gu, Nangong Pursue Moon, Commander Mad War and other strong cultivators each led their legions, closely following behind.

Scarlet murderous aura churned!

From afar, it seemed like eight invincible blood dragons soared, baring their claws, carrying vast momentum, ready to destroy everything in the world.

"All troops, prepare for battle!"

Upon the Soul Return City, Shangguan Huangji saw the army of blood light surging from afar, drew his sword, and shouted loudly.

A sparkling Immortal light flickered.

The Immortal Arrays inside and outside the city were fully activated, overlapping numerous times, forming a solid defense system.

On the city walls, catapults were pushed up, incredibly massive, with crossbows over a thousand feet long, cold light flashing, covered with engravings, exuding a faint spatial force.

Void-breaking crossbows!

Weapons developed by the Void clan for large-scale legion warfare, infused with dimensional force, capable of small-scale reversing space, catching many off guard.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Thunderous roaring for slaughter erupted.

Elder Zong holding his war knife, led the charge towards Soul Return City.

As he approached, he slashed down with his blade.

In the moment of the blade’s descent, ten thousand li of blade aura emerged, shattering dozens of Immortal Arrays outside Soul Return City, exploding into a myriad of immortal light.

Then, the legion following behind him also set up a military formation, condensing military souls, like a sharp arrow, piercing through the darkness, blooming in brilliant light.

A battle unfolded!

"Release arrows!"

Shangguan Huangji dropped his war sword.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Void-breaking bolts shot out, vanished into thin air, before reappearing above the Heavenly River universe legion, falling straight down, breaking through all living beings.

ROAR!

The unprepared soldiers of the Heavenly River universe were directly penetrated by void-breaking bolts.

Exploding into clouds of blood mist.

Blood splashed.

Staining the Changkong red.

Also igniting the bloodlust of all soldiers.

Their roars and shouts surged forward!

Living towards death!

They all understood, upon stepping on the battlefield, death had already descended, and the only thing they could do was to fight until death.

Void-breaking bolts continually descended.

Relentlessly reaping the lives of Heavenly River universe soldiers.

Elder Zong’s eyes turned crimson, furious, constantly cutting down the void-breaking bolts around him, unable to slow the soldier casualties.

Upon Soul Return City, Shangguan Huangji gazed at the blood awakening outside the city, opening his arms, revealing a trace of sinister smile...
