As usual, the battle erupted on the Central Divine Region's front, and all the Dao Emperors were naturally locked in battle. An entire six Dao Emperors from both sides had perished. But even then, it was still unable to allow the battle to catch a breather.
As the three Beast Emperors of the Demon Beast Empire, the Lion Emperor and the other two were already riddled with injuries.
"Bastard, die!" Shouted the Demon Emperor who was fighting the Lion Emperor. He threw a punch at the Lion Emperor. He could tell that the Lion Emperor wasn't in a good condition, so he didn't show any mercy.
The Lion Emperor's eyes flashed with determination when he saw the Demon Emperor's attack. Up until now, every battle had been extremely dangerous. The slightest carelessness could lead to death.
The Lion Emperor knew the state of his body, so he shouted loudly, "Everyone, I'm afraid I have to leave first."
The Ruler of the Continent of the Nine Clouds and the others heard him. The Rulers didn't reply, but their eyes were filled with grief. They had heard such words many times in the past few days, and each time they heard such words, a Dao Emperor had died.
Everyone was very clearly aware that if they were truly unable to hold on until the end of the battle, then the final choice was to take their enemies down with them. They absolutely couldn't allow the gap between the Dao Emperor Realm experts of both sides to be pulled apart, otherwise, the entire situation of the battle would be overturned.
Therefore, the Rulers all made the same choice at the last moment. They wanted to drag someone down with them even if they were about to die.
Just like the Tyrant Fist Ruler and the other two, the Lion Emperor roared furiously and charged at the Demon Emperor in front of him. The power of his bloodline burned fiercely.
His bloodline burned, and a red light quickly dyed the sky red. At the same time, the Lion Emperor and the Demon Emperor disappeared.
Another two Dao Emperor Realm experts had perished together. Up until this point in the battle, it could be said that Dao Emperor Realm experts would appear every single time a battle erupted, and this had practically become a law. On the other hand, the Devil Emperors on the side of the devil cultivators were furious in their hearts as well. Every single one of these overlords of the Heavenly Star Continent are simply madmen. Even if they're going to die, they'll drag someone down with them.
The Lion Emperor had perished. Another Dao Emperor had perished. This was already the fourth Dao Emperor from the Heavenly Chen Continent to perish.
The battle continued. While the Central Divine Region was engaged in a fierce battle, Xiao Chen and the others were also hurrying over.
During these two consecutive days of time, all of them didn't stop for even a moment. After two days, they finally arrived at Western Pass City, and they saw the outline of the city from afar. However, Xiao Chen noticed that the city walls were covered in white cloth, and his heart constricted. Could it be that another Dao Emperor Realm expert has perished?
They didn't give it any further thought and headed directly towards Western Pass City. Right when they were about to approach Western Pass City, a few Dao King Realm experts appeared and obstructed the path of Xiao Chen's group. The person in the lead shouted coldly. "Who's trespassing into Western Pass City?"
He didn't see the appearance of Xiao Chen's group clearly. When he heard this, Xiao Chen replied, "Xiao Chen from the Nine Firmaments Palace."
He reported his identity. When he heard this, the Dao King Realm expert in the lead looked towards Xiao Chen's group. When he saw that it was actually the various geniuses, he hurriedly bowed and said, "So it's the various geniuses. Sorry for the offense."
"It's fine. We want to enter the city to see the Lord Ruler," Xiao Chen said indifferently in the face of this person's apology.
They wanted to see the Lord Ruler. When he heard Xiao Chen's words, the Dao King Realm expert didn't refuse, and he didn't even report it. He directly led Xiao Chen's group to the Central Great Hall where the Lords were.
Xiao Chen's group successfully arrived at Western Pass City. However, in the Central Great Hall, the Lords all had sorrowful expressions. After the Lion Emperor died two days ago, the Yao Beast Empire's other two Beast Emperors had also died in yesterday's battle. So far, a total of six Dao Emperors had died on the Heavenly Chen Continent's side.
Only the Lords of the Nine Firmaments, the Heavenly Wood Ruler, the Myriad Weapons Ruler, the Sky-Burning Ruler, the Heavenly Pill Ruler, the Divine Talisman Ruler, the Heavenly Fate Ruler, and the Pill Cloud Ruler were still alive.
Originally, there were fourteen Lords, but now, only eight were left. The number of casualties was simply unimaginable. Moreover, the Nine Firmaments Ruler and the others knew in their hearts that in the upcoming battle, there would definitely be more casualties. Until the battle ended, everything would never end.
Just as the Lords were grieving over the deaths of the three Beast Emperors, a Dao Sovereign expert reported that Xiao Chen's group of geniuses had arrived at Western Pass City. Hearing this, the Lords immediately let them in.
They already knew what had happened in the Great Sky Lock Formation through the Sound Transmission Talisman. When they learned that Xiao Chen's group had completely annihilated the Demonic Cultivators' geniuses, the Lords were overjoyed. Now that they had safely arrived at Western Pass City, the Lords could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Xiao Chen led Hao Tian's group into the hall. When they saw the Lords, they bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Lords Lords."
"It's good that you're back. You did well in the battle of the Great Sky Lock Formation. You completely annihilated the Demonic Cultivators' geniuses. Very good." In response to Xiao Chen's group's salute, the Lords nodded and replied with gratification.
The Lords were very satisfied with the outcome of the battle of the Great Sky Lock Formation. Xiao Chen's group's performance could be said to be perfect. Hearing the Lords' praise, Xiao Chen's group didn't feel too happy. On the way here, they already knew that after the three Lords had fallen, the three Beast Emperors had also fallen in the past two days.
The intensity of the battle was increasing by the day. If they didn't end this battle as soon as possible, more Lords would probably fall. Thus, now wasn't the time to rejoice.
They had to use Hao Tian's group of four to change the direction of the battle as soon as possible. It would be best if they could eliminate one or two Demon Emperors. If the number of Dao Emperors on both sides could be pulled apart, their chances of victory would be much higher.
Xiao Chen was about to explain his plan to the Sovereigns, but before that, he spoke to Lin Nuo, Ancient Desolation, Gu Mu, and Long Qing.
"Go. Go and see your masters. We'll be fine here."
The three Lords and three Beast Emperors that had fallen were Lin Nuo's and the others' masters. When they learned that their masters had fallen, Lin Nuo's group of four had been filled with grief all along the way. Now that they had safely arrived at Western Pass City, Xiao Chen asked the four of them to pay a visit to their masters' memorial tablets and burn incense for them. As for here, Xiao Chen's group would deal with it.
When they heard Xiao Chen's words, the four of them didn't refuse. They nodded slightly before turning around and leaving the hall. When he saw this, Chen Ling was the first to speak. "I'll go accompany Second Sister. You should speak here."
"I'll go as well. In any case, there's no point in staying here." As soon as Chen Ling finished speaking, Gudu Wuya spoke up.
"Then let's take these four fellows away first. Brother Xiao Chen, I'll have to trouble you to explain the plan to the Lords," Huangfu Ao said. Huangfu Ao said after Gudu Wuya finished speaking. Then, he and the others took Hao Tian and the others out of the palace.
Everyone left one after another, and soon, only Xiao Chen remained in the hall.
