For a moment, the entire Dao universe was shaken.
Space was in a mess, and the space was constantly folding. Time was slowly coming to a standstill.
At this moment, many living beings within the universe seemed to have fallen into a state of unawareness.
Only a handful of top-notch existences could maintain themselves.
Currently, there were only a handful of people who were ruling over this universe. They were existences that could be counted with one's fingers.
This time, for Suo Mingzhang, a heretic Heavenly Lord personally came to the Dao universe.
The North Star Emperor's starlight protected the World beyond Worlds.
Within the void, a voice resounded. It was weird and hard to distinguish, as if it was the voice of the great dao.
The heretic Grand Heavenly Immortal's voice wasn't as profound as the North Star Emperor's. However, even the Tranquil Profound Immortal couldn't understand the meaning behind it.
As for Yan Zhaoge, because he had interacted with the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace before the Great Calamity, he could barely understand it.
"The North Star Emperor … has given his all … However, someone doesn't know what's good for him, and is seeking his own death … Let us fulfill his wish …"
The horrifying and surging power manifested, causing space to tremble. It was ready to be unleashed.
"As expected, he's a Heavenly Monarch from the orthodox Daoism, who joined the heretics?" Yan Zhaoge thought.
He still had some respect for the North Star Emperor.
In this era, the era before that, the era before that, the Investiture of the Gods era, and the era before the Journey to the West era, there were fewer and fewer news about the many famous experts.
Before the Great Calamity, other than the Immortal Divinities that were conferred by the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace, there were very few bigwigs that were active in the previous two eras.
There will always be talented people in every generation, and the new generation will replace the old.
In this era, the most outstanding legendary Daoism bigwigs were mostly in the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace.
Among them, the Daoism's Four Imperials were the representatives. They were high and mighty, and their names resounded throughout the ages.
Those who came from the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace would be the clearest about how strong the North Star Emperor was.
Since he had already entered the heretic path Celestial Court, everything that happened in the past was like yesterday's death, and the status of the past were all illusory.
However, they could disrespect the North Star Emperor, but they couldn't ignore his strength.
However, this didn't affect what they were about to do.
The Three Clear Lineage and the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace were already in the past. They were the current orthodox Daoism!
"In the end, it's still …" Jiang Shen's face was filled with helplessness and fatigue. He turned to look at the Sword Sovereign – Yue Zhenbei, "Zhenbei, reconsider."
"Old Jiang, you should know that I'm not biased towards either the North Star Emperor or the Southern Extremity Longevity Emperor." Yue Zhenbei answered with a solemn expression, "I've been in the World beyond Worlds all these years just to fulfill my promise."
"Now that our agreement has ended, we don't owe each other anything. However, all of Yue Zhenbei's knowledge came from my master. Now that my master's descendant is in trouble, I will do my best to help him."
Jiang Shen sighed and shook his head in pity. "You are the most outstanding of your generation."
"I have to thank my master for nurturing me." Yue Zhenbei said calmly, "Even if I were to die here today, I would merely be returning my master's favor."
Seeing this, Jiang Shen sighed again and said no more.
"Apart from the Treasure Confinement Heavenly Monarch and the Main Smallpox Emerald Cloud Progenitor, how do I address the other two?" Suo Mingzhang looked calm as he looked at the precious light imbued with the Power of Will.
Previously, when he wreaked havoc in the Immortal Court, he had already crossed paths with two heretic Heavenly Immortals.
Although Suo Mingzhang was someone born after the Great Calamity, he was still a legendary figure in the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace before the Great Calamity. After crossing paths, Suo Mingzhang naturally knew about his background.
"Not three, but four …" Jiang Shen frowned, and his expression turned solemn.
Excluding the experts below the Heavenly Monarch Realm, the four heretic Immortal Court Heavenly Lords descended upon the dao universe.
Yan Zhaoge's gaze flickered slightly.
Previously, other than the Immortal Gods conferred by the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace, the bigwigs from the Investitures of the Gods era and the Journey to the West era rarely appeared in this era.
Now, two of them had arrived.
The Treasure Confinement Heavenly Monarch – Cao Bao was a Rogue Immortal during the Investitures of the Gods era. He had nothing to do with the world and lived a carefree life. After getting involved in the Investiture of the Gods Great War, he entered the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace and was conferred as one of the four Righteous Gods under the Profound Altar – the Treasure Confinement Heavenly Monarch.
In some legends, he was called the Treasure Confinement Heavenly Lord. However, in this era's history, the Treasure Confinement Heavenly Monarch was the correct name.
However, ironically, the title of the Treasure Confinement Heavenly Lord might be befitting of it now.
As for the Main Smallpox Emerald Cloud Origin Monarch, he was also a Prime Clear expert during the Investitures of the Gods era, Yu Hualong. After entering the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace, his title was the Smallpox Righteous God.
His title couldn't be shortened, because there was another Emerald Cloud Origin Monarch. She was the Mount Tai Empress, whose full title was the Heavenly Immortal Jade Maiden Mount Tai Empress.
Now, he could also call this Main Smallpox Emerald Cloud Origin Monarch as the Main Smallpox Emerald Cloud Origin Lord.
"Both of them survived the Great Calamity and joined the heretics …" Yan Zhaoge squinted his eyes, "Then, the other two …"
The profound voice resounded throughout the cosmos, and Yan Zhaoge listened attentively.
"Your strength is outstanding … Indeed, you're qualified to ask for our titles …"
Although he joined the heretics, the person who spoke didn't think that it was a humiliation. He also didn't think that it was inappropriate to announce his title.
Yan Zhaoge frowned slightly, "Zhao Jiang … Gao Jineng …"
Heavenly Monarch Zhao Jiang was an active Prime Clear bigwig during the Investitures of the Gods era. After being defeated by the Jade Clear bigwig Ju Liusun, he entered the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace and became one of the Thunder Division's twenty-four Heavenly Monarchs.
Black Killing Star Monarch Gao Jineng was also an active expert during the Investitures of the Gods era. He once killed the Jade Clear's third-generation disciple, the Three Mountains' Bright Spirit Duke Huang Tianhua. After dying in the hands of Huang Tianhua's father, Huang Feihu, he entered the Investitures of the Gods and entered the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace as the Black Killing Star Monarch.
None of them perished during the Great Calamity, and they joined the heretics.
Now, they were all in the Grand Heavenly Immortal Realm.
Heavenly Immortals of the heretics were still Heavenly Immortals. When their cultivation reached a high level, it was basically impossible for them to fight against those of a higher level.
In the entire world, someone like Suo Mingzhang, who fought against two Heavenly Immortals and killed the opposing Heavenly Monarch was a special case.
It was also because of this that the four Heavenly Immortals of the heretics came together this time. They didn't want the previous situation to happen again.
The four Heavenly Lords were all Heavenly Monarchs of the orthodox Daoism. Their strength was extraordinary. The former Heavenly Monarch Zhao and the current Heavenly Lord Zhao, Zhao Jiang, were even more proficient in formations.
Moreover, other than them, there were countless other experts of the Immortal Court gathered in the treasured light imbued with faith power. They must make sure that Suo Mingzhang wouldn't be able to escape.
While they were surrounding the World beyond Worlds, they were also keeping an eye on the North Star Emperor.
If the North Star Emperor helped Suo Mingzhang, they wouldn't be able to accomplish anything. However, they wouldn't be the only ones who would take action next.
This time, the Immortal Court even took the initiative to retreat and defend against the Blessed Lands. They wanted to spare some strength to kill the Exalted Fire Luminary, Suo Mingzhang!
"The Awakened Sky Hall in the past … was taken away by someone here … You must hand it over as well …"
The voice continued to resound. Other than the four Heavenly Immortals and some Heavenly Monarchs who were staring at Suo Mingzhang, the other experts of the Immortal Court started to get restless.
"Where is the successor of Yin Tianxia and Bright Connection Hu?" Lights swayed in the void, and a heretic Heavenly Monarch gradually showed himself.
Although he wasn't as oppressive as Suo Mingzhang and Jiang Shen, as he spoke, the sonorous voice of the great dao resounded, suppressing the mind and body of all martial art practitioners below the Profound Immortal Realm.
Behind him, more and more experts of the Immortal Court started showing themselves from the treasured light imbued with faith power, and descended into the cosmic void.
Although the treasured light was shining brightly, to Yan Zhaoge and the others, it was no different from dark clouds pressing down on a city.
