CapĂtulo 1657: Chapter 891: All Factions Arrive, the Great Battle Looms (Part 2)
If it werenât for Zhao Xuanjingâs face, when Li Changxue heard that someone from the Supreme Sect was coming, she would have already left in a huff.
Zhao Xuanjing was very aware of the âvendetta and grudgesâ between the two major forces, but he really had no other choice, after all, the Supreme Sect possessed the Ten Thousand Demons Mirror and must not be offended.
Zhao San Yue saw this and felt extremely anxious. She intended to say a few words to mediate, but before she could speak, the ancestor stopped her with a glance.
Zhao San Yue could only silently shut her mouth and quietly waited for the person from the Supreme Sect to arrive.
The three of them hovered over the Cloud Sea, waiting for nearly an hour.
Suddenly, a figure appeared out of thin air from the void, and the space-time passage behind them flashed and vanished.
The arrival had a graceful and well-proportioned posture, with gentle facial features, looking compassionate and solemn, with eyes filled with empathy and care for the beings of the world, and a constant hint of pity between the brows.
The person wore a glazed celestial crown on the head, a Daoist robe of flowing clouds, with a long silk ribbon lightly and elegantly draped from the shoulders and arms; the ribbon swayed with the wind, imparting a sense of lightness, elegance, and sanctity.
Jewels and ornaments adorned the chest, arm wrists, and ankles, each of these treasures shining with brilliance, clearly every jewel was an extraordinary heavy treasure.
âItâs you!â
Upon seeing the arrival, Empress Weiyang Li Changxueâs brows furrowed with anger, her face icy as frost.
Zhao Xuanjingâs expression was quite surprised, not expecting the arrival to be this person.
Zhao San Yue was also moved, feeling somewhat troubled deep down.
She suppressed her inner shock, suddenly bowing to the arrival and respectfully said, âJunior Zhao San Yue, pays respects to Master Ci Hang!â
Master Ci Hangâs gaze swept over Zhao San Yue and Li Changxue, finally landing on Zhao Xuanjing.
She revealed a smile, suddenly raising her right hand to her chest, and greeted, âInfinite Taoist Venerable! Fellow Daoist Xianglong, since the battle at No Return Heaven, we have not seen each other for tens of thousands of years. Reuniting today, I did not expect that the Taoist would have successfully passed the Majestic Wind Tribulation, truly a joy and congratulations!â
The arrival astonishingly saw through Zhao Xuanjingâs background with a glance, her cultivation was truly unfathomable.
Zhao Xuanjing also raised his palm to return the gesture, solemnly saying, âThe Majestic Wind Tribulation was incredibly perilous, I was only fortunate to pass it, far from the composure of Senior Ci Hang back in the day.â
Empress Li Changxue heard this remark, her eyes instantly flashing with immense shock.
It was evident she was completely unaware that Senior Brother Zhao had already passed the Majestic Wind Tribulation.
Everyone knows that once a cultivator ascends to the Tribulation Crossing Realm, they must face the three great tribulations of Heavenly Fire, Majestic Wind, and Heart Demon.
Overcoming the Heavenly Fire Incineration Tribulation is already a matter of life and death, let alone the even more terrifying Majestic Wind Soul Scattering Tribulation.
The vast majority of Tribulation Crossing Realm Venerables are deficient in Daoist practices and usually do not dare to attempt the Heavenly Fire Incineration. Even after living for hundreds of thousands to millions of years, their cultivation remains stagnant.
Li Changxueâs cultivation advancement was quite extraordinary before ascending to the Tribulation Crossing Realm, and she passed the Nine-nine Tribulation in less than twenty thousand years, leaping to become a top Great Venerable in the Spirit Realm.
However, when she painfully passed the Heavenly Fire Incineration Tribulation and faced the Majestic Wind Soul Scattering Tribulation, she realized she had flaws in her Daoist heart, rendering her unable and unwilling to attempt the pain of the Majestic Wind Soul Scattering.
Li Changxue quickly regained her composure, secretly transmitting a message to Zhao Xuanjing: âSenior Brother, youâve kept this from me for too long. Once we return to the mountain, weâll settle this score!â
Zhao Xuanjing bitterly smiled internally, quickly transmitting a message back, constantly explaining to Junior Sister Li.
Just when Zhao San Yue quietly retreated behind the ancestor, Master Ci Hang spoke again: âI have brought the Demon-Revealing Mirror. Fellow Daoist Xianglong, where is the Evil Immortal hiding now?â
Upon mentioning business, Zhao Xuanjing instantly turned solemn, suddenly sending her a Divine Thought.
Master Ci Hangâs eyes narrowed slightly, and she said in a deep voice, âI see, I will follow Taoistâs instructions.â
Li Changxue saw this scene and her face suddenly turned cold, casting a cold glance at Master Ci Hang.
No need for extra words, these two female cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing Realm undoubtedly have numerous grudges, leading to mutual displeasure and ignoring each other.

Three days before the Returning to Void Celebration begins, outside the outer void of the Taiyi Spirit Realm, countless stars moved around the Main World, following ancient rules.
Under normal circumstances, the Celestial Star Battle Formation would only activate one-tenth of the star hubs, maintaining the lowest defense strength.
At this time, outside the Celestial Star Battle Formation, somewhere in the dark void far from the Taiyi Spirit Realm, a masked figure with an androgynous appearance, green clothes, and white hair appeared out of thin air.

This person wore a silver-white mask, and behind them faintly appeared a large majestic beast with a single horned sheepâs head, and pure white flawless fur.
The beast was divinely majestic, with bright and clear eyes, its entire body covered in pure white flawless fur, as white as snow, and as smooth and soft as silk. The long fur draped over the neck and chest like a lionâs mane, appearing even more noble. But the first impression it gave was not of ferocity and brutality, rather an extreme sense of sanctity, wisdom, and peace.
This majestic beast was none other than the legendary Whitećł˝ Divine Beast, known for âspeaking human language and knowing everything.â
The young Daoistâs identity was evident, he was the Whitećł˝ Divine Envoy under the command of Old Ghost Wanxing.
Bai Ze hovered here, quietly waiting for the arrival of companions.
Not long after, a burly figure akin to a mountain, with a single huge eye on his light-headed face, tore through the void and came out from the Dark Sky.
The One-eyed Giant saw Bai Ze, and actively shouted, âYo, you are indeed first again, Bai Ze!â
Bai Ze casually replied, âYinglong, you are here.â
âOur master urged repeatedly, so this king had no choice but to come!â The giant squinted his single eye, smiling as he spoke, âBy the way, where is that beast Candle Dragon?â
Bai Zeâs gaze revealed an indescribable confidence, casually saying, âCandle Dragon has not yet arrived, but it should be soon.â
Just as the words fell, an old man with blood-red hair and beard, with white eyes, appeared out of thin air nearby.
Bai Ze indeed spoke the truth, but Yinglong was not at all surprised.
The old man with blind eyes flashed, instantly arriving before the two Divine Beast Envoys, greeting indifferently, âBai Ze, Yinglong⌠Long time no see!â
Yinglong saw him and suddenly laughed loudly, âHaha, Candle Dragon is here as well. Letâs set off now, the master must be impatient from waiting.â
Candle Dragonâs face displayed a silver-white mask, on which were engraved indifferent eyes, with the edges of the mask coiled around an abstract clawless dragon beast.
Candle Dragon did not speak, merely turned to look at Bai Ze.
Bai Ze nodded to the two companions, simultaneously transmitting a Divine Thought to them.
Then, the three Divine Beast Envoys almost simultaneously disappeared without a trace.

On the eighth day of October, on an auspicious day suitable for weddings and burials, celebrations and rituals, everything was smooth!
On this day, below the Divine Continent, within a Floating Island, Divinity Transformation True Monarch Zhao Dianli put on the most solemn attire and gradually walked out of the cave mansion.
Upon reaching the plaza outside the cave mansion, he solemnly took out a large red Jade Token from his bosom and began to continuously insert mana into it.
As mana surged into it, the Jade Token began to emit a faint glow.
After over a dozen breaths, the Jade Token dazzlingly shone like the moon, its brilliance remarkable.
At this moment, the Jade Token suddenly flew out of his hand, instantly expanding into a portal about a couple of meters wide and tall.
The portal slowly opened, revealing a passageway. At the end of the passage was a landscape of green mountains and clear waters.
Zhao Dianli tidied his attire, then boldly stepped into the portal, disappearing in a flash.
A breath later, he appeared atop a White Jade Platform, surrounded by mountains and lush forests.
At this moment, a mysterious person wearing a silver-white mask stood at the center of the platform, coldly observing him.
Zhao Dianli felt a chill in his heart, couldnât help asking with full of doubt, âWho are you? Could you be the Welcoming Envoy?â
The mysterious person couldnât be bothered to explain, suddenly waved a hand.
Instantly, a vast, unimaginable pressure fell upon Zhao Dianli, rendering him immobile.
Before he could shout, his mana and Purple Mansion Primordial Spirit inside were entirely sealed, a layer of gray-white stone shell growing from his feet and spreading upward along his legs.
In an instant, Zhao Dianli became an immobile gray-white statue.
Meanwhile, similar scenes continuously occurred throughout Chongyue Cave Heaven.
Any Zhao high cultivators who entered Chongyue Cave Heaven would immediately be confined by the Grotto Heaven Power and uniformly transformed into statues.
They did not perish, but were temporarily sealed away.
