Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 1558 The Primordial War Begins

“So, Gautikh will head to the Mong Realm,” the Kun Peng said while gazing at the Taotie before facing the others. “Who else?”

“I’ll head there,” Jagira, the Qilin said, stepping forward. “The God King’s daughter is pretty interesting. So, I’ll face the Mong Realm as well.”

“Great, next up is the Garg Realm,” the Kun Peng said, noticing Arakel the Azure Dragon and Borgan the Black Turtle step forward, expressing their willingness.

And surprisingly, Turmul the Tiangou expressed willingness to head to the TTT instead of the Kun Realm. Warakh the White Tiger also followed suit, intending to target the TTT.

“This only leaves the two of us for the Kun Realm.” Zeit, the Kun Peng nodded as he gazed at Feura the Vermillion Bird.

The Kun Realm was special in that it was the first realm in the eight cycles of the Greater Universe to be created by slaughtering and using the bodies of the Kun Peng. Every other realm was just normally created by the Kun Peng.

As for the Vermillion Bird, they were interested in the Kun Realm because, at one point in time, some of them had lived in the Kun Realm itself. Even though all of them were only Child Vermillion Birds, it still meant that the Kun Realm was special.

All eight Primordial Beast representatives had now picked their respective Greater Realm to target. Following that, the only thing needed was to attack them.

If the Primordial Beasts were to target these realms alone, there might be a chance they could kill them. After all, when combined, there were Champions whose combined power could rival the God King.

Therefore, there was a chance they could be killed, even though they were stronger than Tallo. That was why they were sent as teams of two.

This way, the possibility of their deaths was reduced to zero. Moreover, they had been personally instructed by the Chiefs on the ins and outs of the power of the Gods and the fighting style of the various realms.

This was in preparations to ensure they killed their opponents in the shortest time. After all, victory in a single battle would spiral into victory for the entire war.

If the Gods won a battle, it meant a Primordial Beast was lost. And there was a good chance their corpses would be devoured by the victor realms to strengthen themselves.

Even though devouring a Primordial Beast’s corpse wouldn’t change the condition of a realm other than raising its lifespan to almost infinity, it would still result in one change. And that was in the Realm Spirit itself.

It would cause the Realm Spirit to grow stronger, leading to an evolution of their Realm Ability, causing its power to gradually surpass the Gods and attain the level of Primordial Beasts.

So, they had to be careful.

In the same vein, if a Greater Realm were to fall, it meant that the remaining three Greater Realms would have to handle two more Primordial Beasts at the same time.

So, depending on how it played out, things might go bonkers for either side. This was especially since both sides had prepared their respective trump cards.

Despite everything, Zeit, the Kun Peng, addressed everyone, “Be extra careful. Don’t underestimate our enemies. There’s a reason Zule dared to make such a bet with the eight Chiefs. So, unless we determine the reason for his confidence, play to your strengths and gradually weaken your opponents.”

“We know.” Gautikh, the Taotie, rolled his eyes in response. “No one would be careless after Tallo’s death.”

“Yeah, that’s what we need to remind ourselves. The Gods of this generation are different from the past.” Zeit nodded. “They are prepared and are constantly evolving to face the changing situation.”

Zeit then focused on Gautikh and Jagira, telling them, “The two of you will be fighting the Mong Realm, the strongest among the Greater Realms. Don’t be careless. If anything, your lives are at the most risk.”

Zeit then faced the others after that. “If you emerge victorious, reinforce where you’re needed the most.”

He then spoke in all seriousness, “And, if there’s a chance any of you feel like you’re on the verge of death, don’t feel embarrassed to signal us. At least I’ll come running to save you.”

“The fate of the Greater Universe depends on this battle. So, do your best,” Zeit said, turning into the Kun Peng as he began to fly towards the Kun Realm. “Let’s go!”

“Haha, this’ll be fun.”

“Don’t lose your life while playing around with the Gods.”

“You needn’t say it. Instead, try your best not to die. Mon-Tu-Casha is strong.”

“The TTT might be weak, but they’re tricky. Don’t be fooled.”

The various Primordial Beast representatives commented at each other before making their way toward the four Greater Realms in pairs.

The Kun Peng Zeit and the Vermillion Bird Feura made their way toward the Kun Realm, their expression serious.

Feura said all of a sudden, “The Kun Realm is hiding some secrets. The brats that lived there said as such.”

“Yeah, I know that,” Zeit said. “I always looked up to Zule since young. He’s by far the most daring among the Kun Peng. Since his clan was sacrificed, he must have planned something huge.”

“I know that for sure.”

As they moved past, a tiny Satellite Realm revealed itself from a nearby spatial storm, resembling the Soul Trading Hub in terms of appearance but was many times smaller. Its Realm Spirit silently gazed at the figures of Zeit and Feura as it blinked, transmitting the information to the Soul Trading Hub.

…

“It’s time,” Wally announced in the Soul Trading Hub as every single God in the Greater Universe had gathered. “The whereabouts of Krune and Mon-Tu-Casha are still unknown. However, we’ll do our best to fight until their return.”

“I’m feeling somewhat more confident thanks to this.” The Garg Realm Champion said, wielding his Satellite Realm weapon in reality.

“It does amplify your power, but that’s all it does. Against our opponents, it’s not enough,” Wally advised the Garg Realm Champion before facing the rest. “The eight representatives have already emerged. Based on their current course, the White Tiger and the Turmul would reach the TTT first. There’s at least a couple of weeks before the second group reaches the other Greater Realms.”

“So…” Taking in a deep breath, Wally said with conviction, “Let’s go.”

“We’ll overwhelm our opponents.”
