The Eye of the Sacred Temple was torn to pieces. Its pupils shrank and instantly became unfocused. Along with it, the Eye of the Sacred Temple's gigantic body crumbled into the galaxy with a loud bang.
The cultivators from the Immortals' Union were reduced to ashes in the purple sea of fire. Even the dozen or so people fighting fiercely above were buried in the sea of fire once Flame Fiends' Progenitor revealed his power.
The difference in their levels of cultivation caused all their resistance to be futile and powerless.
However, while Morning Dao Sect might seem to have won the battle, in truth, besides Su Ming and his group, there were only thousands of Morning Dao Sect disciples in the area. All of them stared at their surroundings with dumbfounded expressions. Gradually, when their gazes landed on Flame Fiends' Progenitor, great shock appeared on their faces. Then, when they looked towards Su Ming, that shock turned into great respect. No one knew who was the first to react to the situation, but they immediately wrapped their fists in their palms and bowed deeply towards Su Ming.
"Greetings, Dynast Dao Kong!"
"Greetings, Dynast Dao Kong!" Their voices were scattered in the beginning, but soon, they turned into a wave of sound formed by thousands of people. They echoed in the sea of fire and echoed in the galaxy, refusing to disappear even after a long time had passed.
The cultivators in Lunar Kalpa Realm who had been fighting against the powerful Immortals in the sky and Ouyang Kong from the Sect Elder Chamber were among them. All of them wrapped their fists in their palms and bowed deeply towards Su Ming. No matter what level of cultivation they possessed, all of them were greatly shocked at that moment. Their respect towards Su Ming had already reached its peak.
Su Ming stared at the galaxy in the distance, and a dark light shone in his eyes. He lowered his head and lifted his right hand. Immediately, two storage bags appeared on his palm. He scanned them with his divine sense and brought out two Sun Destroying Lightnings.
They were the only Sun Destroying Lightnings left in the two storage bags.
In silence, he did not immediately absorb them. Instead, he put them away, turned around, and returned to his warship to set up camp outside the Relocation spot.
After all, there were some problems with the Relocation spot, and it was difficult for it to be immediately activated. About three days later, when the Relocation Rune shone with light again, the news of the other Relocation spots being attacked reached Morning Dao Sect. Only then did the connections between the Relocation spots recover.
"This time, the Immortals' Union launched an attack on nine Relocation spots. Among them … besides our spot, the other eight spots were caught off guard by the Immortals' Union's appearance … which is why all of them were destroyed," Ouyang Kong said in a low voice in front of Su Ming on his warship.
"Over the years, the army from the Immortals' Union has continuously conquered one region after another. Wherever they go, most of the races will become a part of the union, and it looks as if they intend to devour Morning Dao Sect in one go.
"Once in a while, a treasure that has never appeared in True Morning Dao World will appear in the Immortals' Union, such as the Sun Destroying Lightning. In fact, decades have passed since then, and I'm certain that another supreme treasure has definitely appeared in the Immortals' Union," Ouyang Kong said in a low voice, telling Su Ming everything he knew.
"There are three great forces of power in the Immortals' Union. One of them is the entire Immortal race, and the second is Phoenix Sect …" When he said those words, Ouyang Kong instinctively cast a glance at Xu Hui, who was beside Su Ming.
"The third is the Council of Races. This is a temporary alliance formed by many races. Together with the other two great forces of power, they are collectively known as the Immortals' Union.
"The Sacred Temple is similar to Morning Dao Sect's Council of Sect Masters. They coordinate all the battles, plan out all resources, and distribute them. They were created by Phoenix Sect. Each time a battle is launched, there will be a different number of Eyes of the Sacred Temple, and the commanders of the battles are usually people from Phoenix Sect.
"The current Sacred Lady of the Sacred Temple is the Sacred Lady of Phoenix Sect, Bai Ling.
"The Council of Races is similar to the War Chamber. They are the ones who send out the most troops in every battle.
"As for the Immortals, they are an incredibly mysterious existence in their union. They are different from the Immortals in our impression of them in the past. Right now, the Immortals' territory has been completely locked down, and no outsider can step into it.
"However, most of the powerful warriors sent out in every battle are from the Immortals. They seem to have mastered another method of cultivation, and their levels of cultivation have increased by leaps and bounds. There are also quite a number of divine abilities that have never been heard of before.
"For example … three hundred years ago, the Immortals sent out a black-robed man on a battlefield with more than one million people. That person clearly did not have the power of an Almighty, but he executed a divine ability that turned the galaxy into nothingness, the battlefield into a black hole, and blood into water, causing the battlefield in the galaxy to look as if it had turned into a well.
"The cultivators of Morning Dao Sect in the well had the mark of the moon branded at the center of their brows due to that divine ability. The bodies of hundreds of thousands of people twisted, and once they were forcefully formed into the shape of a gigantic moon, the black-robed man lifted his hand gently, and as if he was scooping them out … he took away their Nascent Divinities.
"If Progenitor Tai Shan had not rushed to the battlefield and used his power as an Almighty to heavily injure the black-robed man, we … might have lost before the battle even started.
"However, the price for heavily injuring the black-robed man was that Progenitor Tai Shan was heavily injured, and he was forced to return to Morning Dao Sect to isolate himself to recover.
"Another example is the small-scale battle five hundred years ago. Morning Dao Sect had an incredibly great advantage, and at the instant the Immortals' Union was almost completely destroyed, the Immortals' Union sent out … a giant that all of us will never forget!
"This person … is so big that he is several hundreds of thousands of feet tall. There are seven planets at the center of his brows, and with just one punch …" A hint of wariness appeared in Ouyang Kong's eyes.
"The giant's level of cultivation is clearly only at the later stage of World Plane Realm, but the terrifying power that erupted from him is the same as that of the black-robed man. It's unbelievable. Only those with a level of cultivation surpassing him can hold him back. Only those with a level of cultivation surpassing him by several realms can suppress him!" Ouyang Kong's words echoed in the air. As Su Ming listened, a fierce look appeared in his eyes.
"Your Highness, you must have already guessed the answer. The strange things that have happened over the years have allowed us to know clearly that there is … a force of power that does not belong to True Morning Dao World after the Immortals' Union. In fact, it does not even belong to the four Great True Worlds. The descent of this force of power has allowed the Immortals' Union to have the power to fight against Morning Dao Sect.
"Or else, how could a mere Immortals' Union still exist for one thousand years and occupy half of the True World's galaxy?" Ouyang Kong said with a wry smile.
"What about the True Progenitor?" Su Ming suddenly asked.
"The Lord True Progenitor's identity is a mystery, and he can change constantly. No one knows who he is, but since the start of the battle, no one who looks similar to him has appeared. Forget about Your Highness, all of us from the other races are also feeling uneasy and anxious.
"Besides, Progenitor Dao Chen is still in isolation and has not come out. The Almighties and the powerful seniors in Morning Dao Sect have not appeared either, causing everyone to think … that there might be a secret that we do not know about." As Ouyang Kong spoke, he looked at Su Ming, as if he wanted to obtain an answer from him.
Su Ming narrowed his eyes. He remembered the golden mosquito and the Seed of Life Extermination in his body. They had devoured each other as if they were mortal enemies. Since Life Extermination came from Dark Dawn, then the one who was its mortal enemy was naturally … Saint Defier!
If that was the case, Su Ming already had answers to many of his questions in his heart.
The giant with the rotating planet at the center of his brows, the gigantic golden mosquito, the black-robed man with the strange divine abilities, and even some power that had yet to be revealed but was definitely there. The force of power hidden behind all of this was the source of the power that had descended in True Morning Dao World and caused the Immortals' Union to start a war … came from … the 180 Expanse Cosmoses of Saint Defier!
The fight between the 180 Expanse Cosmoses of Dark Dawn and the 180 Expanse Cosmoses of Saint Defier over Arid Triad Expanse Cosmos had already reached an intense stage. Right then, Saint Defier's suppression had already descended, so perhaps Dark Dawn's camp … had also arrived, but no one knew about it.
There was no way Arid Triad Expanse Cosmos could fight against these two huge forces of power, and how was True Morning Dao World supposed to face them? The True Progenitor had not appeared and the Almighties in Morning Dao Sect had fallen silent because of this.
'Dark Dawn has already appeared. The ancient will from Yin Death Region and the karma that happened before and after the fifth ocean is a clear indication of Dark Dawn's power.' Su Ming's pupils shrank when he thought of this question.
Su Ming closed his eyes. He had a strong feeling that the war of one thousand years was just the beginning … It was just the start of a fight that would take place around Arid Triad Expanse Cosmos.
The true war of the Expanse Cosmos would unfold in an even greater manner. When the flames of war spread to the four Great True Worlds, burned the remaining two Great Ancient Kingdoms, and burned Arid Triad Expanse Cosmos, they would decide whether Arid Triad's Heaven Origin Cosmos would belong to Dark Dawn or Saint Defier!
When Su Ming opened his eyes, the flames of ambition were hidden in them. They were invisible, but they burned Su Ming's body and soul. Perhaps his ambition was very childish, and perhaps he was overestimating himself, but it was a determination in Su Ming's heart at that moment.
'Perhaps it won't belong to Dark Dawn or Saint Defier, but to …' Su Ming did not continue thinking about it, but the flames of determination in his heart burned even louder.
"This time, the Immortals' Union's attack has caused all the Relocation spots to lose their ability to send messages. If Morning Dao Sect doesn't think of a way to solve this quickly … then I am certain that wars will break out in the True World soon!
"Your Highness, when you return to the sect this time, with your status, please tell the Council of Sect Masters about my worries … My people are in True Morning Dao World, and I don't want the day to come … when the Immortals' Union invades True Morning Dao World and offer my people as a blood sacrifice." Ouyang Kong wrapped his fist in his palm towards Su Ming and bowed deeply to him again.
"I will do it." Su Ming's gaze landed on Ouyang Kong before he averted it to look at the galaxy. In his heart, he mumbled an aloof murmur that no one else could hear.
'Without destruction, there will be no new life.'
