Chapter 2004: Chapter 2004: Rather Die Fighting Than Live on Knees!
"The growth speed of your disciples is truly shocking. Originally, I didnât think theyâd show their prowess so quickly, yet here they are, having killed two of the Main Gods and playing such a significant role in the formation barriers and logistics support." Nuwa exclaimed in amazement.
Fang Qiong integrated his array formation into the formation and enhanced it using the Creation Array Spirit Body.
Mu Wanâer continuously refined medicinal pills, single-handedly managing nearly half of the wounded.
Shi Sheng coordinated with the Imperial Preceptor.
Mo Yu even controlled the puppet army using the Hundred Machine Manipulation Technique.
As for Hong Ying... thereâs no need to say more, she directly became the leader of the alliance.
Du Ni smiled faintly, with a hint of relief in his expression, though he quickly masked it and shrugged his shoulders, saying, "After all, they can be considered half my apprentices and grand disciples."
Lu Changâsheng glanced at Du Ni with irritation, "Iâve never formally apprenticed to you. What kind of grand disciples are you talking about?"
Du Ni cursed, "You brat, werenât all those array formation and Dao of alchemy things initiations from me?"
Lu Changâsheng waved his hand dismissively, "Come on, you just tossed a few books my way and disappeared. I had to teach myself everything."
Nuwa smiled wryly, "Alright, you two, letâs stop arguing about this. The Immortal Realm is now fully aggressive and has launched its final assault. We donât know if we can withstand it."
Du Ni shook his head, "Although the Imperial Preceptor has some tricks, breaking the formation is only a matter of time."
He then looked at Lu Changâsheng who had a serene expression, and asked curiously, "Arenât you worried at all?"
Lu Changâsheng pointed to himself and said, "Youâre asking me to be worried? You just want them to undergo some actual experience, and since I canât intervene now, whatâs the point of worrying?"
"Moreover, no matter what, this battle is bound to be won, and none of them will be in trouble." Lu Changâsheng spread his hands, leaned back in the flower garden, closed his eyes leisurely, "Just like you both mentioned before, itâs nothing but an attempt to have me groom those disciples to be future aids for the rebuilding of the Heavenly Court. Even if I donât make a move, you all will ensure their safety."
Lu Changâsheng chuckled lightly, "So, should I be worried? Or should I pretend to be anxious so you all feel better?"
Nuwa coughed gently and turned her head.
Du Ni clenched his fists tightly, tempted to give the relaxed Lu Changâsheng a thrashing.
Not a single word was incorrect, not a single problem!
But itâs infuriating!
...
Above Qingming Sea, the sky tore apart, as the crimson sword qi of the Slaughter Realm Sword cascaded like a river of blood, crashing against the Star Array set up by the Imperial Preceptor.
Scarlet lightning blasted open a tiny crack in the barrier woven by starlight, and the ear-piercing sound of shattering echoed like the doomsday bell in every Chaos Realm cultivatorâs mind.
Within the formation barrier.
Millions of cultivators gazed up at that crimson sword spanning the sky, and the endless Immortal Realm army behind it.
Despair, like the pressure of the deep sea, silently seeped into their bones.
Even Xuanyuan Tianzhao, Xu Youming, and others who had fought in the battle a million years ago, looked ashen and grave. The Immortal Realm at that time hadnât brought such pure and suffocating oppression.
"So this is the Immortal Realm full-force assault... such depth..." He Yunâs expression was tense, the River Map and Luo Book in his hand trembling slightly, reflecting the endless silhouettes illuminated by golden light outside.
Du Gubai slightly raised his head, his pupils trembling faintly beneath the straw hat, "Back then, the Immortal Realm hadnât launched such a blatant attack..."
The rest remained unsaid.
But everyone present understood what was meant.
The martial arts civilization a million years ago was dazzling, even stronger than now. The lack of such a fierce assault from the Immortal Realm had cost them much of their martial inheritance and influence to barely repel them.
Now...
Such an oppressive atmosphere... a sensation named despair quietly spread at this moment.
Defeated before the battle is the great taboo of war!
The top figures of each force were keenly aware of this.
Hong Ying, as the Empress and Alliance Commander, of course noticed it too.
The Imperial Preceptor looked at Hong Ying, "Your Majesty..."
Hong Ying raised a hand to stop the Imperial Preceptor from continuing, saying, "Follow me out."
The Imperial Preceptor was momentarily startled but quickly guessed what Hong Ying intended to do, nodding in agreement.
Soon, Hong Ying and the Imperial Preceptor burst out of the Deep Sea Castle, breaking through the oceanâs surface to stand at the forefront!
The crowd was momentarily taken aback, seeing Hong Ying clad in her golden red battle robe.
In just a few days, since the initial disdain, doubt.
Later, her strategic planning, comprehensive management, and her emperorâs intent, coupled with the support of the influential Imperial Preceptor.
Everyone began to overlook Hong Yingâs realm, subconsciously trusting this Commander.
But now, this Commander had stepped to the forefront, facing millions of troops from the Immortal Realm in the most dangerous zone!
This was a grave taboo! If the Commander whom they trusted fell, the impact would be enormous.
The Immortal Realm could break through the defenses in one fell swoop and begin their slaughter.
"Commander, fall back!"
"Leave it to us!"
Some leaders shouted.
Yet Hong Ying remained unmoved, her gaze piercing through the millions of troops, the divine generals, the divine envoys, and ten Main Gods, and finally resting on the three gods like deities.
The three gods also naturally noticed Hong Ying, observed her realm, and couldnât help but furrow their brows.
Dan Heavenly God snorted coldly, "Didnât expect the Lower Five Realms to choose such a little girl as Commander? Looks like they truly have fallen since the Chaos Divine Dynasty from a million years ago."
Cangtian Godâs voice echoed, icy and devoid of emotion, "Ants of the lower realm, I give you one last chance â submit, or be slaughtered, the choice is yours."
There were no wasteful words.
Just two cold choices placed before everyone.
Inside the barrier, upon hearing Cangtian Godâs soul-shaking tone, most couldnât help but shiver.
Many cultivators even already harbored thoughts of retreat... or submission.
Seeing this, Hong Yingâs expression remained calm, merely extending her right hand.
Clang!
The Reincarnation Spear appeared in Hong Yingâs hand, with a swing in the void, the emperorâs intent fully unleashed, enveloping the area, swirling around the millions of cultivators!
For a moment, everyoneâs gaze fell upon Hong Ying.
Noticing this, Hong Ying took a deep breath, her voice filled with the emperorâs intent, and spoke loudly, "The Immortal Realm oppresses us with strength, renders the weak helpless, all for the sake of complete enslavement and the severance of our orthodoxies.
Your pursuit in cultivation, is it merely to submit to others and be eternally enslaved?!"
Hong Yingâs words were like a heavy hammer pounding their hearts.
Everyone suddenly remembered the original motivation for their cultivation.
Whether for power, for wealth, for pleasure, for immortality, even for evil, they absolutely didnât include enslavement!
Hong Ying shouted in anger, "Disciples of the Lower Five Realms, better to die in battle than to live on their knees!"
Suddenly, everyone roared furiously.
Including the Imperial Preceptor, Xuanyuan Tianzhao, Xu Youming, Mo Lin, and others.
"Better to die in battle than to live on their knees!"
"Better to die in battle than to live on their knees!"
"Better to die in battle than to live on their knees!!!"
