Chapter 2068: Chapter 2067: The Four Great Factions

"Kill!" Bi Fang Ancestor swung his right hand and said coldly.

"Kill kill kill!!!" As Bi Fang Ancestor’s words fell, the countless armies of cultivators around them all let out low growls and roars.

Under the lead of a hundred Late Mahayana Stage incarnations, the vast law‑enforcement army, along with other Mahayana experts, charged toward the group from Spiritual Mountain and the others opposite.

Before the people even arrived, a terrifying pressure had already swept out from these law‑enforcement troops and the hundred external incarnations of Bi Fang Ancestor, suppressing toward the forces of Spiritual Mountain and the black worm demon beasts.

"Damn old bastard! You actually discovered us in advance, truly hateful!" Inside the inner space of one black worm demon beast, that black‑robed man who had just been in the lead roared with a hideous expression.

This kind of demon beast was called the Black Nether Cloud Escape Beast, a rare Mutated Demon Beast, a combination of the True Spirit three-headed Flood Dragon and the cloud escape beast. The offspring bred from this pairing had a certain chance of mutating, forming this special Black Nether Cloud Escape Beast.

Although the Black Nether Cloud Escape Beast was a descendant of a True Spirit and a Mutated Demon Beast, it actually had no offensive power. However, it naturally contained an inner space that could temporarily swallow living people; unless one possessed special Great Divine Power, it was basically impossible to detect.

Furthermore, the Black Nether Cloud Escape Beast also possessed a unique Innate Divine Ability—Instant Time!

Just from the name it sounded somewhat similar to the Time Law, but in reality it had nothing to do with the Time Supreme Law at all, not even fit to carry the shoes of the Time Supreme Law.

Yet this "Instant Time" Divine Skill could only be used once in the life of each Black Nether Cloud Escape Beast, and once it was used, that marked the end of its life.

When the Black Nether Cloud Escape Beast activated this Divine Skill, it could pass through the vast majority of Formations, ignore most physical entities as if they were nothing, just like what Zhang Xiaohao had seen earlier.

Unless one possessed some special Great Divine Power, or had a demon eye refined from a three-headed Flood Dragon True Spirit Nascent Soul, there was simply no way to discover them.

The reason Bi Fang Ancestor was able to discover these Black Nether Cloud Escape Beasts was because he had obtained intelligence beforehand that these Purple Cloud Palace petty thieves and Spiritual Mountain bald donkeys would come to target them. So he set up a Super Formation around them, tightly protecting the entire City Lord Mansion. In addition, he specially went to the True Spirit interface, slew a three-headed Flood Dragon True Spirit, and refined its Nascent Soul into a demon eye in order to find their tracks; otherwise, it would have been impossible to detect them.

"My lord, what do we do now?" one black‑robed figure asked.

"Hmph! Since that old undead Bi Fang has discovered us, at this point we can only force our way through! But relying on the power of our Purple Cloud Palace alone, we’re absolutely no match for them! We have to drag those bald donkeys from Spiritual Mountain in with us! Besides, I’ve also heard that this time, in order to enter the Heavenly God Space, that pack of bald donkeys from Spiritual Mountain have specially sent the Tathagata Buddha along!" the leading black‑robed man said.

Having finished speaking, he pinched a hand seal with both hands, casting a mark, then let out a low shout: "Everyone, move!"

In the blink of an eye as he spoke, the group rushed straight out from the mouths of the Black Nether Cloud Escape Beasts.

Boom boom boom...

They had just emerged when, in the next instant, these Black Nether Cloud Escape Beasts directly exploded, turning into masses of blood rain that scattered around; all ten Black Nether Cloud Escape Beasts died.

"What a pity about these Black Nether Cloud Escape Beasts! I paid a hefty price to get them!" the leading black‑robed man said with a look of regret.

Seeing the Bi Mu Divine Race people opposite drawing ever closer, this leading black‑robed man’s gaze fell on the group from Spiritual Mountain and the others.

"Little Tathagata! Since you’re here, why not come out and meet? Or do you plan on sitting on the mountain to watch the tigers fight?" the leading black‑robed man sneered.

"Amitabha! Since Fellow Daoist Snake Emperor wishes to meet, how could this Buddha Lord possibly hide?" A chant of Buddha’s name rang out, then countless Buddha lights flashed; a fat monk wearing a Zijin kasaya and a Tathagata Buddha mask appeared in midair.

"You did come, as expected! I’ll just ask you one thing—how do you intend to handle the situation now? Are you going to fight your battle and we fight ours, or will our two sides join hands?" Snake Emperor said coldly.

"Buddha says, the Buddha Path is originally one family—why distinguish you and me? Since we are to act, then we act in alliance! However, it’s not merely the two of us, but four sides together!" Tathagata Buddha said with a smile.

"Four sides? And the other two?" Snake Emperor showed confusion.

"Jade Emperor, Death God—since you’ve come, do you still plan to just keep watching the show?" Tathagata Buddha suddenly looked toward a certain patch of void and spoke calmly.

Buzz buzz buzz...

As Tathagata Buddha’s words fell, a tremendous aura appeared in the sky, suppressing toward the surroundings.

Under this tremendous aura, the space trembled with crackling booms.

A golden five‑pointed star Teleportation Array appeared, spinning in the sky. In the span of a blink, it grew from the size of a grain of rice to a hundred‑zhang‑wide array, countless golden radiance surging out from within the five‑pointed star Teleportation Array and sweeping back across the surroundings.

Seeing this sudden scene, Bi Fang Ancestor’s hundred incarnations and the law‑enforcement army all halted, staring coldly at the spectacle before them.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

In the next instant, four thousand figures wearing Heavenly Court and Underworld masks appeared in the air, led respectively by the Jade Emperor and Death God. A massive pressure erupted from their bodies, violently suppressing outward.

Though the newcomers numbered only about four thousand, every last one of them was an old monster of the Great Mahayana Realm.

What’s more, the Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Court had actually descended in his true body!

The Death God of the Underworld had also arrived in his true body!

The terrifying aura of the Great Mahayana Extreme Realm, even without the two of them deliberately acting, caused all the surrounding space to collapse, countless chaotic spatial currents surging out from within.

...

Inside the Divine City.

After Zhang Xiaohao left the Heavenly Destiny Auction House earlier, he casually picked a restaurant, booked a private room by the window, ordered a massive spread of mountain and sea delicacies, and sat in the box eating away.

As he ate, he watched in the direction of the City Lord Mansion.

What happened afterward—the major faction leaders of the Divine City he had just robbed rushing toward the City Lord Mansion, the city’s military forces deploying, the law‑enforcement squads on standby, countless powerful Arrays opening—none of it escaped his sight; it was all within his line of vision.

The next sequence of events was what unfolded inside and beneath the City Lord Mansion.

"Hu!" Zhang Xiaohao lazily exhaled a puff of smoke, gazing at the purple Formation outside the City Lord Mansion.

"What a formidable Ancient spatial Sealing Array! If not for the Great Covering Sky Reincarnation Thin Cloud Technique being based on one of the three Supreme Laws, the Reincarnation Law, it’d be hard to say whether I could escape if I ran into it!" Zhang Xiaohao sighed.
