In the fourth layer of the Nine Heavens Imperial Court, Changgeng Sky.
The army of the Tai Yi Clan had arrived. The two leaders were the two remaining Divine Ancestors of the Tai Yi Clan, Tai Yi Chongming and Tai Yi Chongyan. They were brothers. Tai Yi Chongming was the strongest among the three Divine Ancestors. The younger one was the weakest. However, the two of them had great teamwork. Once they joined forces, their power was terrifying.
Behind them was the army of the Tai Yi Clan led by Crown Prince Zhangqing. Most of them were the Tai Yi Immortal Guards. Behind them were the direct descendants of the Tai Yi Clan. In normal battles, the direct descendants of the Tai Yi Clan wouldn't participate. After all, the loss of any direct descendant was a huge blow to the Tai Yi Clan.
However, this time was different. If Hayashikawa really obtained the Tai Yi Dao Scripture, then he would have three scriptures. Even if he was only in the Form Synthesis Stage, his power would be above everyone else. When that time came, even the three Divine Ancestors wouldn't be able to do anything to Hayashikawa.
"Damn it! They've left Zong Dong Sky and entered Chang Jing Sky! "Tai Yi Chongming's face darkened as he said angrily.
"How could it be so fast? Could it be that the protectors of these Celestial Palaces have all betrayed us?" Crown Prince Zhangqing's expression immediately turned ugly when he heard this.
Chang Jing Sky was already the seventh layer of the Heaven. Above it were Yuanji Sky and Yuelun Sky. Once they reached Yuelun Sky, anything could happen.
Tai Yi Chongming's face darkened. After a moment of silence, he said, "The Human Sovereign is being held back by a puppet. He told us that Hayashikawa is related to that organization."
"That organization?" Tai Yi Chongyan's face changed.
"It's just a guess. However, from the current situation, it might be related to that organization. However, we don't know much about that organization. They've always been operating in the dark in the Cultivation Realm. Their power hasn't extended to the Realm of Immortals. However, if it's related to that organization, then I'm afraid something is wrong." Tai Yi Chongming said softly. He frowned as if he was very worried.
Crown Prince Zhangqing and the other elders of the Tai Yi Clan stood behind the two. They were confused.
"May I ask, Divine Ancestor, what organization would make you so afraid?" Crown Prince Zhangqing asked.
"It's a very ancient organization that existed before the Ancient Cultivation World was destroyed. It's said that many of its members have already become immortals and are extremely powerful. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's the number one organization in the Cultivation World," Taiyi Chongming said softly.
Hearing this, the upper echelons of Tai One Clan were moved.
Many of their members had become immortals. This was definitely not something an ordinary organization could do. Since ancient times, there were only a few people who had become immortals. Didn't that mean that many of them were members of that organization?
"Alright, you don't need to worry about these things. Let's go!" Taiyi Chongming didn't explain any further. After gesturing for the people behind him to follow, he led everyone to the entrance to the next layer of Chen-Xing Heaven.
With his powerful cultivation, Taiyi Chongming could already see the figure standing under the Builder Tree. It was the controller of Changgeng Sky, Emperor Bai.
"I won't ask why you didn't stop them. When this is over, we'll settle the score," Taiyi Chongming said coldly as he looked at Emperor Bai.
Although they were far apart, as long as they were in Changgeng Sky, Taiyi Chongming believed that Emperor Bai would be able to hear him.
As expected, Emperor Bai smiled faintly. There wasn't much respect for Tai One Clan in his expression, but he didn't show any disdain either.
"I'm only guarding Changgeng Sky. I'm not a servant of Tai One Clan. There are rules in Nine Heavens Imperial Court. They passed my test, so I let them go. There's nothing wrong with that. If you really want to blame someone, then blame the person who set the rules of Nine Heavens Imperial Court!" Emperor Bai said coldly. Then, he seemed to remember something and revealed a shocked expression. "Oh, right, I forgot. The Jian Clan that created Nine Heavens Imperial Court has already been exterminated by you!"
"Don't think that I can't touch you just because you're guarding Nine Heavens Imperial Court. Don't forget the Taiyi Dao Scripture in your body!" Taiyi Chongyan said coldly.
"That's right. I have the Taiyi Dao Scripture in my body. So what? Can you kill me now?"
Just as Emperor Bai finished speaking, the weather in Changgeng Sky changed. Countless white swords floated out and surrounded the Tai One Clan, exuding a sharp Sword Qi that could destroy heaven and earth.
"According to the rules, even if Tai One Clan came, they would have to go through me first. As Emperor Bai, I have the final say in Changgeng Sky," Emperor Bai said coldly.
"You …" Taiyi Chongyan's face turned cold as he unleashed his cultivation. He was ready to teach Emperor Bai a lesson.
Although Emperor Bai had the final say in Changgeng Sky, they who had the Taiyi Dao Scripture could control Emperor Bai. Although they couldn't completely suppress him, they could still reduce Emperor Bai's power.
However, if they did that, it would seem like they had completely fallen out with Emperor Bai. This would greatly delay the progress of Tai One Clan.
"Emperor Bai, you better know what you are doing. Don't throw your life away when the time comes," Taiyi Chongming stopped his brother and said coldly to Emperor Bai.
This wasn't the first time they had encountered such a situation. Previously in Sui Xing Sky, they had also clashed with Emperor Qing and even fought. However, time was of the essence. Even if Emperor Qing wasn't the strongest among the Five Emperors, they still needed time to win. In the end, they could only compromise and let Emperor Qing go. They then led the Tai One Clan cultivators into the next Heaven Imperial Court.
If they continued to clash here, they might reach Yuelun Sky before they could even catch up with Hayashikawa. They knew what was more important.
Even though many of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors had already decided to take sides, they didn't want to fight until the very end.
"According to the rules, if you break my sword formation, I will let you leave!"
As Emperor Bai finished speaking, his body disappeared.
Since he had already come this far, he wasn't afraid of offending Tai One Clan. What Hayashikawa had said to him previously had inspired him. This could be considered as a return of favour.
As for Tai One Clan, Emperor Bai knew that they couldn't afford to drag this out. They definitely wouldn't start a war here.
As expected, after Emperor Bai disappeared, Taiyi Chongming and the rest were extremely angry. However, they could only break the sword formation step by step. Luckily, Emperor Bai knew the severity of the situation. The sword formation wasn't very powerful and could only stall for time. It couldn't really stop Tai One Clan's footsteps.
However, Tai One Clan would remember this. After dealing with Hayashikawa, Emperor Bai would have to be replaced.
