A great battle had erupted at Broad Creed Mountain's headquarters, even devilish qi surging into the heavens. The chaotic situation very quickly drew the attention of all sides.
The experts of Broad Creed Mountain outside of the Central Heaven Region wanted to return to reinforce their clan, but the situation in the outside world had also become tense at this moment.
The immense pressure prevented them from leaving their current location and returning to reinforce Broad Creed Mountain.
This was especially true for the South Heaven Continent, which faced the Fire Domain.
At the border between the Fire Domain and the Heaven Domain, a great number of the Sacred Sun Clan's peak experts had appeared. While they had not entered the Heaven Domain, a tense atmosphere could erupt at any moment.
With the Grand Elder of the Sacred Sun Clan, Pan Botai, and the head of the Seven Reigning Suns, the World Illuminating Lord at their head, the group of experts of the Sacred Sun Clan had all arrived, eyeing the Heaven Domain covetously.
Pan Botai asked coldly, "When is Senior Brother Huang coming out of seclusion?"
The World Illuminating Lord said, "Just recently, within these one or two days."
Pan Botai nodded, gazing in the direction of Broad Creed Mountain, "Actually, we can already make our move now."
The World Illuminating Lord's expression was calm, "Do not be hasty, senior apprentice-uncle Pan. If we make a move now, we do not have sufficient confidence in sweeping through both Broad Creed Mountain and the Decimating Abyss cleanly. If the Nine Underworlds descend, it would similarly be difficult for my Sacred Sun Clan to handle it. Turbid Wave Pavilion would also have objections, and even the Painting Saint, Old Man Mo, might be alerted."
"Also, if we directly make a move, we will be obstructed by Jade Sea City and Infinite Boundless Mountain. Wait a bit; the East Sea is already no longer peaceful. When Jade Sea City and Turbid Wave Pavilion's attention has been drawn away by the Flame Devils, we will then be able to kill them in a single blow."
"At that time, between Broad Creed Mountain and the Decimating Abyss, both sides should have suffered heavy losses."
The World Illuminating Lord said, "Yuan Zhengfeng has entered secluded cultivation. This will not be easy for Broad Creed Mountain."
While Pan Botai's expression was cold, his gaze containing fury and hatred, he still did not lose his composure in his words, "The Decimating Abyss has made a major move, with even the Devil Saint Yuan Tian getting involved. However, Broad Creed Mountain's many years of foundation cannot be messed up just like that. If Yuan Tian wants to accomplish anything, he must first get past the Clear Qi Robe."
"If we do not make a move, unless the Decimating Abyss has a way to deal with Broad Creed Mountain's Clear Qi Grand Formation, Broad Creed Mountain will most likely be able to tide through this tribulation."
Hearing Pan Botai's words, the World Illuminating Lord suddenly laughed, "Regarding Broad Creed Mountain's Clear Qi Grand Formation, our Sacred Sun Clan has also prepared some things."
"Although we are waiting here to prepare for war and wait for an opportunity to strike, we have to fight for the opportunity ourselves. We don't necessarily have to wait for it to appear."
His gaze was calm as he turned around. There was a formation quietly operating there.
Pan Botai's gaze similarly fell on that formation, "Not directly attacking, just relying on this formation, it will not be able to shake Broad Creed Mountain's Clear Qi Grand Formation."
The World Illuminating Lord walked towards the formation and stepped inside. "Naturally, it's not just that."
He flipped his palm, and with a flash of light, a longbow made of pure gold with flowing flames on it appeared in his hand.
It was precisely the Sacred Sun Clan's famed high-grade spirit artifact, the Sun Shooting Bow.
The World Illuminating Lord pulled the bowstring, and then took out another item.
It wasn't an arrow, but something similar to a bullet, giving off an extremely strange feeling.
Under the illumination of the Sun Shooting Bow, it seemed very small, like a sunspot. However, upon closer inspection, it felt extremely heavy, as though it contained a greater power than the Sun Shooting Bow.
Seeing this, Pan Botai raised his white eyebrows. "Anti-Yangzi? Isn't this thing extinct? The last time it appeared was six hundred years ago. "
The World Illuminating Lord laughed. "Why else would I say that opportunities have to be fought for by oneself?"
As he said this, he placed that small black bullet on the bowstring of the Sun Shooting Bow, before pulling it back!
It wasn't aimed at the Heaven Domain, but at the formation beneath his feet.
Sunlight shone on the World Illuminating Lord's body, eight great golden suns rising, flickering with light as they emitted infinite heat.
Numerous spirit talismans appeared around his body, transforming into numerous spirit arrays. Next, they superimposed on each other to form an existence that resembled a tall tower whilst also an altar, enveloping him within.
The World Illuminating Lord's martial true intent merged with the high-grade spirit artifact, the Sun Shooting Bow, before both bolstering that black bullet.
The black bullet known as the Anti-Yangzi didn't emit light, its lustre growing dimmer and dimmer, its power also growing heavier.
The World Illuminating Lord abruptly released the arrow, the Anti-Yangzi transforming into a streak of dark light, piercing through the ground beneath his feet, shooting into the formation before disappearing.
For just that one moment, the formation beneath the World Illuminating Lord circulated mightily, unprecedentedly ferocious, giving off a berserk feeling.
The next moment, the formation regained its former calm and tranquil state, as though everything that had happened earlier had been an illusion.
However, satisfied smiles appeared on the faces of the World Illuminating Lord and Pan Botai as they looked towards Broad Creed Mountain and the Heaven Domain, smiling coldly as they did not speak.
At the same time, on the World Illuminating Peak where the Sacred Sun Clan was located.
The current Chief of the Sacred Sun Clan, Huang Xu, sat in the meditative position at the top of the mountain, a long golden ruler placed horizontally across his knees. The long ruler had the pattern of nine suns on it, seeming to be blazing.
Behind Huang Xu stood a person, the Twilight Lord of the Seven Reigning Suns.
It was just that the current Twilight Lord's expression was dim and dispirited.
"Speaking of this, framing Jade Sea City's Old Man Chen was not a bad result. However, while you could hide it from outsiders, you could not hide it from the Sacred Sun Clan." Huang Xu said mildly, "Because Breaking Dawn fell to the dark side, he did not leave behind a corpse. Therefore, when you said that you killed Breaking Dawn, others would believe it."
"A pity that your luck was bad. Others saw that it was Jade Sea City's Old Man Chen who killed Breaking Dawn."
"However, the final result was that Old Man Chen disappeared, bearing the suspicion of being a spy of the Decimating Abyss, while you reported that it was you who killed Breaking Dawn."
Huang Xu did not turn his head, only saying mildly, "What do you think I would think after hearing this news?"
While Huang Xu did not move at all, the long golden ruler on his knees displayed a majestic power, suppressing the Twilight Lord to the point that he dared not act rashly.
The Twilight Lord was silent for a moment before saying, "I just happened to be a step too late, not being able to stop Old Man Chen from killing Breaking Dawn in time. However, there shouldn't have been anyone else in the surroundings at the time. Otherwise, I would not have been unable to discover it unless it was an expert of the same level as me, or even higher."
Huang Xu said mildly, "Sometimes, one does not necessarily need to be in the vicinity to be able to see the situation at the time."
The Twilight Lord was indifferent, "Then I have nothing more to say."
Huang Xu said, "Honestly speaking, you have always been my trusted aide. I originally trusted you very much. As for the Decimating Abyss's target of corrosion, I had always suspected that it was the World Illuminating Peak."
The Twilight Lord smiled bitterly, "Saying all this now is useless."
"That's also true." A hint of a smile suddenly appeared on Huang Xu's face, "Just now, you said that while you do not know who the Decimating Abyss Lord is, you can confirm that he is of Broad Creed Mountain?"
The Twilight Lord laughed loudly, "That's right, it is precisely so. There is no need for me to lie to you. The great battle of Broad Creed Mountain should already have reached its climax. The Abyss Lord will definitely have to personally take action. His identity is already impossible to keep, and there is also no need to do so."
"This is extremely good news for you, isn't it?"
Within a stone chamber on the World Illuminating Peak, the World Illuminating Young Master Huang Jie held an orb in his hands.
The orb displayed the scene of Huang Xu and the Twilight Lord conversing at the top of the mountain.
Huang Jie nodded calmly. "It's indeed very good news."
