The Gouchen Palace stretched for millions of miles and was connected to thousands of super dragon veins. It was filled with immortal qi. Emperor Gouchen had painstakingly managed it for millions of years and had set up countless arrays and restrictions. It could be said that it was impregnable.
But today, when the Buddhist Sect's army came rolling in, Emperor Gouchen had no choice but to make a decision that made his heart ache. It was to evacuate everyone.
There was nothing he could do about it. The hundreds of thousands of pagodas of the Buddhist Sect were simply too powerful, too monstrous. Almost every single pagoda had a history of a million years. They could unleash hundreds of powerful Buddhist Sect divine abilities. They could attack the Gouchen Palace's formations and restrictions from afar.
It would be fine if there were only a few pagodas. But they had hundreds of thousands of pagodas. No matter how powerful the Gouchen Palace was, it couldn't withstand the attacks of so many powerful pagodas. Moreover, there was a large number of devil's dens and Asura Underworld River Divine Boats behind.
This force was too strong and had completely exceeded the Gouchen Palace's tolerance. Without a large number of Divine Lightning Flying Boats, it was futile to resist.
Therefore, in order to preserve his strength, Emperor Gouchen could only give up the nest that he had painstakingly managed for so many years and let all his elite subordinates go.
After he left, the Gouchen Palace's arrays were still operating. However, without anyone controlling them, the arrays were very rigid. Facing the attacks of the pagodas and devil's dens, it was quickly broken.
Patriarch Blood River and the rest only used half a day to seize the famous Gouchen Palace. The great victory raised the morale of the entire Buddhist Sect! Be it the eminent monks, the devils, or the Asura Race, they were all very excited.
Even the Saints at the rear were extremely excited. They sent messengers to reward the three armies, especially Patriarch Blood River. At the same time, they encouraged him to continue working hard and try to swallow the Celestial Court in one go.
Of course, it was impossible to conquer the entire Heavenly Court. Because the Saints of the Heavenly Court would never allow such a situation to happen. Once their bottom line was crossed, a war between the Saints would be unavoidable.
However, if they only took down a few large worlds like the Nine Heavens and occupied half of the Heavenly Court's territory, the Saints of the Heavenly Court wouldn't say a word. Those high and mighty Saints would most likely not say anything.
The Buddhist Sect's objective this time was very clear. They wanted to take down at least two of the nine heavens. Now that the North Star Emperor's Yu Chen Sky had fallen, Ancestor Blood River didn't hesitate to set his sights on the Eastern Royal Sky.
The reason why Patriarch Blood River and the Buddhist Saints behind him chose this place was because they had thought it through carefully.
Firstly, there were political considerations. The Eastern Royal Immortal Realms was the central hub of the Heavenly Court. Right now, all the orders of the Heavenly Court came from here. If the Heavenly Court was compared to a country, then this place would be the capital of the country.
Therefore, once this place was occupied, it would definitely deal a heavy blow to the morale of the Heavenly Court's army, which would have an extremely beneficial effect on future battles.
Secondly, the Eastern Royal Heaven was the most fertile land in the Heavenly Court. It was the production base of the Divine Lightning Flying Ship. He also controlled the Zhu Rong world, which was a logistics base of the heaven. Most of the weapons and armors of the Heavenly Court were produced here.
Once this place was occupied, then the secret of the Divine Thunder Flying Ship might be seized, and they would obtain a huge amount of supplies. On the other hand, the Heavenly Court would lose their most important logistical base. In this way, the outcome of future battles would be known without even having to fight.
It was precisely because of this consideration that after the Blood River Ancestor captured the Yu Chen Heaven, he didn't stop to rest and charged towards the Eastern Royal Heaven!
Everyone knew the importance of the Eastern Royal Immortal Realms. Not only the Buddhist Sect, but the Heavenly Court was also very clear of this. Therefore, before the Buddhist Sect made their move, the remnants of the Heavenly Court had already gathered in the Eastern Royal Heaven.
However, when they saw the defensive measures of the Donghuang Heaven, all of them felt so depressed that they even felt like dying.
So it turned out that the Eastern Royal Immortal Realms had only been in Song Zhong's hands for about a thousand years. Even though it had been built for a thousand years, this place had changed greatly. The scenery was beautiful, like a paradise, and it was completely suitable for people to live in.
However, in terms of defensive measures, it was close to zero. After all, Song Zhong's subordinates had limited energy. All these years, they had been focused on building the Divine Lightning Flying Ship or dealing with the mountains of trash. How would they have the time to build a defensive formation?
Therefore, the current Eastern Royal Immortal Realms only had a basic defensive formation. It could barely defend against thieves, but against a large army, even a hundred thousand celestial soldiers and generals would be able to break through it easily. Not to mention the terrifying army of the Buddhist Sect.
Therefore, after seeing this situation, many Heavenly Emperors gave up and persuaded Shura Xue to give up on the Eastern Royal Immortal Realms and go somewhere else to hide temporarily.
However, Shura Xue firmly disagreed. Instead, she gathered the entire Divine Boat Army in the Eastern Royal Immortal Realms and wanted to fight to the death with the Buddhist Sect.
Many Heavenly Emperors didn't understand Shura Xue's crazy actions. However, after Shura Xue explained, they quickly came to a consensus. Not only did they stop retreating, they even mobilized all their elites over.
With the orders of the various Heavenly Emperors, all the subordinates of the Heavenly Court were mobilized. A sea of reinforcements were teleported over from all directions.
Other than the North Star Emperor who had lost his base camp, the other five Heavenly Emperors had all sent their elites to the East Imperial World. Even the Queen Mother of the West had handed over all her elite troops to the Jade Emperor.
With their support, the Eastern Imperial Realm was able to raise an army of hundreds of millions in a short period of time. There were tens of millions of them, and they were the elites of the Heavenly Emperors. All of them had the cultivation base of Heaven Immortals and above.
The rest were garrisons from various places. Although many places were not at war all year round, some necessary garrisons still existed. Now, these seemingly inconspicuous troops were all mobilized, and the result was very shocking.
Right now, these troops were all gathered in the vicinity of the Purple Palace in the Eastern Royal Immortal Realms. Shu Luo Xue didn't reorganize the troops either. She just asked them to set up camp in an area.
While the Heavenly Court was preparing their troops, the army of the Buddhist League was also hurrying along. They were like a terrifying flood, killing their way to the Eastern Royal Immortal Realms from one plane to another. Along the way, there wasn't a single checkpoint that could stop them for even a day.
Everything that dared to block their path, no matter what it was, was all smashed into dust by the Buddhist League's pagoda.
Many of the cave dwellings of famous Great Immortals were destroyed in this calamity, causing them to feel extremely pained. This also ignited the anger of all the Immortals in the Immortal World. Many Immortals who weren't serving in the Heavenly Court also rushed to the Eastern Royal Immortal Realms in advance, preparing to fight the Buddhist League's invaders head-on with the Heavenly Court's army.
Several days later, countless Buddhist League's army finally appeared in the Eastern Royal Immortal Realms. The first to appear was the Devil's Den, which was used as a meat shield. Then, it was the hundreds of thousands of pagoda, and finally, the Asura Race's Nether River Battleship.
Clearly, Patriarch Blood River had his own selfish motives. He knew that this battle might be a little difficult, so he placed the Asura Race's army in a safe place at the back.
Because Asura Xue didn't stop the Buddhist League's army in advance, Patriarch Blood River's army was able to safely pass through the planes and adjust their formation, forming a terrifying army formation that was a hundred thousand miles wide and a million miles long. Then, they slowly pressed towards the Purple Imperial Palace.
Such a powerful army formed a terrifying killing intent, causing all the Immortals in the Eastern Royal Immortal Realms to feel their hearts palpitating.
Only Asura Xue didn't have the slightest fear. Instead, her face was filled with a cold smile.
Soon, the vanguard of the Buddhist League's army arrived at the periphery of the Purple Imperial Palace and met with the Heavenly Court's army led by Asura Xue.
At this moment, Asura Xue only had about five hundred Myriad Deity Lightning Flying Ships in her hands. Her number couldn't even compare to the Buddhist League's pagoda. However, she still domineeringly arranged the formation horizontally and didn't show any signs of weakness. She made the Divine Dragon Heavenly Ship stand out, facing Patriarch Blood River with equal harshness.
The Buddhist League's army stopped ten thousand miles away. Patriarch Blood River then flew out and looked at the formation opposite him. Then, he laughed loudly and said, "Daughter, if you only have this little army, I'm afraid this time, you're dead for sure!"
Indeed, although the Heavenly Court's army was large in number, compared to the Buddhist League's army, it wasn't just a little bit inferior. Not only were the Divine Lightning Flying Ships few in number, even the quantity and quality of the army was far inferior.
The Buddhist League's army this time totaled over five hundred million. Among them were three hundred million eminent monks, one hundred million devils, and several tens of millions of asuras. Moreover, their strength was practically at the Heaven Immortal Realm or above. One had to admit that the Western Pure Land had been quiet for so many years. The strength they had accumulated was terrifying!
In comparison, the Heavenly Court's army was far inferior in both quantity and quality.
Moreover, although the Heavenly Court was the host, they didn't have a powerful defensive formation to protect themselves. It was practically equivalent to a field battle. Under such circumstances, Patriarch Blood River really couldn't see any reason for him to lose.
Just as Patriarch Blood River was provoking complacently, Asura Xue flew out proudly and stood at the top of the Divine Dragon Heavenly Ship. She glanced coldly at Patriarch Blood River and said, "Father, I admit that I was a little inferior in the past. I was too confident in my control of the asuras, which led to the great defeat last time. However, I've learned my lesson this time. I won't let you be arrogant again! Today, I'm going to let you suffer a crushing defeat here! Taste the taste of defeat! "
"Hahaha!" After Patriarch Blood River heard this, he immediately looked up to the sky and laughed wildly. He laughed for a long time before he stopped. Then, he said with disdain, "Daughter, have you been beaten silly by your father? You want me to suffer a crushing defeat with just your few subordinates? How is that possible? "
"Whether it's possible or not, you'll know when you try!" Asura Xue narrowed her eyes and said, "As long as you dare to attack the Purple Imperial Palace, I'll teach you a lesson!" If you like this work, you're welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.
