After the cultivators from the three imperial realms left, many figures descended from the Tower of Nine Cloud Tower. They were all cultivators from Kongxuan City.
"This Battle of Empty Realm is going to be interesting. Which side do you all think will win?" someone asked.
"Emperor Li's Realm has been in control of the Empty Realm for the past ten years, and the power they have accumulated in the Empty Realm is the strongest. They can catch us by surprise, and with the cultivators of the Dali Dynasty, it is very likely that they will win again."
"It is said that the Imperial Advisor of Dali has created a new method this time and created a group of Kamikaze warriors. It seems that Emperor Li's Realm is determined to win."
"Kong Zhan and Kong Xuan are twin siblings with peerless combat prowess. They have come to participate in the battle at the same time. It is said that the heirs of the great figures of the demon realms under the Demon Peacock Emperor's command have come to assist them, intending to help the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm win the battle in the Empty Realm. I think the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm has a good chance of winning."
"Yeah. Emperor Xia once said that his daughter, Xia Qingyuan, was no less talented than him, and that she could become the Empress of Emperor Xia's Realm in the future. It was only natural that she was exceptional. However, this time, she was not up against mighty ones from Emperor Xia's Realm, but Emperor Li's Realm and the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm, who were at the same level. Li Yao, Kong Zhan, and Kong Xuan might not be any weaker than her. It all depended on whether or not Emperor Xia's Realm had prepared any trump cards."
Everyone was talking about it. On the surface, Emperor Li's Realm was the most likely to win this battle. Ten years ago, Emperor Li's Realm had already won a great victory.
But it was different this time. In the Battle of Empty Realm, the leading figures of the three imperial realms were princes and princesses. There had never been such a grand occasion in the last hundred years. Since the princes and princesses were there to experience it themselves, it was only natural that the troops they led were the strongest of all.
Until the very end, it was still unknown who would emerge victorious. Right now, they were only guessing.
In Kongxuan City, there were people who had already set up bets on who would emerge victorious in the Battle of Empty Realm. Many saints placed heavy bets in an instant.
Those who bet on the victory of Emperor Li's Realm were naturally the most numerous.
…
Three days later, in the center of Emperor Xia's City, Emperor Li's City, and the Demon Peacock Imperial City, the three cities that were spread out in a triangular formation, a solemn pressure of iron and blood emanated.
At this time, in the void in the distance, countless experts came, quietly looking forward.
In the sky above this area, three armies appeared. They were like heavenly generals, and their might enveloped the entire world.
That day was the flag battle agreed upon by the three parties, and it would also be the beginning of the Battle of Empty Realm.
The cultivators of the three Imperial Cities were all gone, and the armies were all gathered here. Silhouettes soared into the sky, and they were also divided into three groups. The Sacred General of Tian, the Sacred General of Dou, and the Sacred General of Saint Plane all stood high up in the sky.
From the moment the flag battle began, saints were not allowed to enter the battlefield and participate in the Battle of Empty Realm.
It was a consensus reached by the three Renhuangs over the years that the battle for control of the Empty Realm would be decided by battles below the Saint plane, and none of them would break it easily. Otherwise, the slightest mistake would lead to a war between the imperial realms. Before they had absolute confidence, none of the three parties dared to start a war between the imperial realms, as the price would be too high.
As such, a battle every ten years, with the participation of the army of sages, was the most peaceful way they could think of. The three imperial realms had a chance every ten years, and even if they lost, they could afford to lose. Otherwise, if the battle decided the permanent ownership of the Empty Realm, the other two imperial realms that lost the battle would naturally not let it go.
Although the saints did not participate in the battle, but all three parties still mobilized a large number of saints. After all, everyone had to make sure that the other side did not break the rules. Otherwise, if there was an accident, they would be caught off guard.
Furthermore, it was the princes and princesses who led the battle, and they had to make sure that nothing went wrong.
Below, the armies of the three parties stood in a triangular formation. They were mighty, and all of them had the pressure of iron and blood. Even the spectators who stood far away felt suffocated.
A group of silhouettes walked among the armies.
The army of Emperor Xia's Realm, Xia Qingyuan, walked forward step by step. Behind her, Tian Ji carried a huge flag, which was engraved with a lotus pattern. It was the flag of Emperor Xia.
Today was the flag ceremony.
It was not just Xia Qingyuan's side. Li Yao, Kong Zhan, and Kong Xuan all walked forward and came to the front of the army. The imperial flags behind them fluttered in the wind. The flag of Emperor Li was engraved with a golden dragon pattern, and the flag of the Peacock Emperor was engraved with a peacock pattern.
"According to the rules of the Battle of Empty Realm, after the flag ceremony, the blood-stained imperial flag will be placed at the highest point of the imperial city. If the imperial flag is cut, the loser will be eliminated," Li Yao said. "In the Battle of Empty Realm, life and death are determined by fate. Those of the Saint Plane are not allowed to interfere, and those who do will be killed without mercy. Battle matrices are not allowed in the imperial city, and those who violate them will be eliminated. Other than that, all sages are allowed to participate in the battle.
"The time limit is three months. If the imperial flag is not cut in three months, the battle will be fought here. The winner will be in charge of the Empty Realm for the next ten years."
Everyone looked solemn. The Battle of Empty Realm had broken out countless times, and they naturally knew the rules.
"You may begin," Kong Zhan's voice was cold as he looked at Li Yao.
"Very well." Li Yao nodded. "The flag battle will be fought to the death. Divine implements are not allowed, and blood will be sacrificed to the flag. I will go first."
A burly figure walked out from the army of Emperor Li's Realm as soon as he finished. His entire body emanated a terrifying aura, as if there was no way to hide his aura. Ye Futian knew at a glance that this was the same kind of sacrificial warrior who fought outside Emperor Xia's Palace. They had stepped into the Saint Plane through special means, but their plane was unstable, and their future was ruined. They could only stay in the Saint Plane forever.
After that, a mighty one walked out from the direction of the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm. His entire body was filled with an extremely wild demonic aura. As soon as he walked out, his body suddenly changed into a demonic beast. It was a terrifying demonic ape beast that was filled with frightening power.
The flag battle was related to the morale of the Battle of Empty Realm. There were three battles, and in principle, if each side won one battle, they would all be able to sacrifice the blood of their opponent to the flag.
Furthermore, the flag battle was a battle to the death. Out of the three who walked out, only one would be able to survive. It was very cruel.
In the first battle, Emperor Xia's Realm would be the last to send out their representative, which was the most advantageous. They could determine who would participate in the battle based on the mighty one who walked out from the other side.
"Who will fight?" Xia Qingyuan asked.
"I will." A figure stepped out. It was Xuanyuan Ao of Xuanyuan Palace, one of the top figures below Saint Plane in Emperor Xia's Realm, and a descendant of Emperor Xuanyuan.
As a descendant of Renhuang, Xuanyuan Ao was extremely arrogant, but he was by no means someone who lived a comfortable life. On the contrary, he was extremely brave and good at fighting, with an extremely overbearing personality. Even though the flag battle was a battle to the death, he still chose to fight in the first battle.
The three of them stepped out and stood in the middle of the three armies. Terrifying aura suddenly swept through the sky.
Beams of resplendent golden light appeared behind Xuanyuan Ao. It was like the light of the Human Sovereign, shining between the heavens and the earth. An incomparably huge sword appeared. The body of the sword was not long, but it exuded a heavy and domineering aura.
There seemed to be patterns carved on the sword. There were the light of the sun, the moon, and the stars swirling, as well as lightning and thunder. Xuanyuan Ao was bathed in terrifying light in an instant.
"The Xuanyuan Sword Spirit." The mighty ones of Emperor Xia's Realm stared at Xuanyuan Ao. As a top figure below Saint Plane, Xuanyuan Ao was naturally the center of attention. He should be able to win this battle.
Li Yao also stared at Xuanyuan Ao. Xuanyuan Ao's ancestor was Renhuang Xuanyuan, and he was very famous himself. He naturally knew of him.
It was said that Emperor Xuanyuan had carved his way into his Life Spirit, allowing him to manipulate the sun, moon, stars, wind, thunder, and lightning. He passed it on to his descendants, allowing them to be born with extraordinary talents.
Now that Xuanyuan Ao had summoned the Xuanyuan Sword Spirit, it was indeed terrifying.
Ye Futian also stared at Xuanyuan Ao. He had not interacted with the other, but he could feel that this person was extremely proud. After all, his ancestor was Renhuang. Jiuge had received the inheritance of his ancestor, which was why his Life Spirit had been awakened again and his talents had become stronger. Xuanyuan Ao had already been awakened a long time ago, and he was already extremely powerful.
He had seen Wang Chuan, who was known as the ultimate figure below Saint Plane in Emperor Xia's Realm, and the others were naturally not weak.
The sword shot out like lightning, stabbing straight at the mighty one of Emperor Li's Realm. His opponent stepped forward, and his body seemed to be filled with endless golden light, as if he had turned into an invincible golden body. Divine light burst from his body, making him look like a human-shaped divine implement. He raised his arm and smashed it at the Xuanyuan Sword Spirit.
A loud sound was heard, and the light of the Sword Spirit rained down in a frenzy. The light of the sun, moon, and stars sprinkled down. Lightning flashed and thunder roared, as if doomsday had come, and the Great Path was falling down.
"Boom!" The mighty one of Emperor Li's Realm was not afraid at all. He stepped into the sky and punched with both arms, breaking through the dazzling light and blasting at the Xuanyuan Sword Spirit with both hands.
Xuanyuan Ao stepped out and appeared above the Xuanyuan Sword Spirit. He held the sword with both hands and brought it down.
A beam of light of the Great Path that tore through space appeared from the sky, and it was like a bolt of lightning that was extremely destructive. It struck the body of his opponent, and in an instant, that extremely powerful golden body was shattered, and his body was split in two. He was dead.
After that person died, the aura of the Divine Path was still faintly emanating from his broken body.
"Did the Imperial Advisor of Dali refine humans like divine implements?" The Sacred General of Tian said coldly in the void. Although such means could be used to refine human-shaped weapons, it was still against humanity.
The people of Emperor Li's Realm did not respond. Li Yao looked at the fallen body expressionlessly. They were the first to send out their representative in the first battle, and it was normal for them to lose.
There were three battles in the flag battle, and it was impossible to win all three. But in the next battle, they were the last to send out their representative, and they were sure to win.
Xuanyuan Ao walked towards the mighty one of the demon realm, and as expected, the demon ape was soon cut down by him. The Xuanyuan Sword Spirit flew to the flag of Emperor Xia and stained it with blood, using its opponent's blood as a sacrifice.
In the second battle, the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm was the first to send out their representative. Another powerful figure walked out, looking extremely ferocious and looking in Xia Qingyuan's direction.
"Who will fight in the second battle?" Xia Qingyuan asked.
"Yu Sheng," Ye Futian replied plainly, and Yu Sheng walked out immediately. Xia Qingyuan naturally understood what he meant.
In this battle, Emperor Li's Realm would send out their representative last, and Li Yao would definitely want to win, so they would send out an extremely powerful figure.
Ye Futian sent Yu Sheng to fight so that Emperor Li's Realm would not be able to win.
At that moment, Ye Futian stood calmly in the crowd and glanced at Li Yao indifferently. There were three battles in the flag battle, and Emperor Li's Realm needed the blood of three mighty ones to sacrifice to Emperor Xia's flag!
