Chapter 2539: The Army of Death (1/2)

The grand elder’s orders soon reached the various leaders in the Empyrean Demon Cult. Immediately, demonic aura surged from various places within the divine hall, and powerful energy pulsed.

The attack on the Cloudsurge Empire was a grand operation that the Empyrean Demon Cult had planned for a very long time. They had always been gathering soldiers across the years. As a result, over eighty percent of the Empyrean Demon Cult’s forces were gathered in the branch. Now that they all showed themselves, it formed an earth-shaking sight. The terrifying presences cascaded together, and it was to the point where even the divine hall failed to keep it concealed. It began expanding outwards.

There were heavy, evil presences of death among these presences. They were especially powerful. The heavy sense of death they gave off was enough to send chills down the spines of Primordial realm experts.

“What’s happening? Why have so many powerful presences suddenly appeared? What is the Empyrean Demon Cult doing?”

“This presence of death seems to be able to devour all life. Just sensing the presence makes my life force surge in an attempt to leave my body.”

The expressions of the protectors from the Tian Yuan clan all changed as they shivered. All of them became restless.

Xu Ran became stern as well. Her eyes became extremely deep as they shone like two streaks of light. She directly looked in the direction of the presence. She thought to herself, “Does this presence come the army that is rumoured to be the most terrifying in the Empyrean Demon Cult, the Army of Death?”

Suddenly, everyone felt the divine hall they stood in shake. The dark divine hall suddenly took to the skies. It turned into a streak of black light, and with a swish, it shot through space and vanished. It moved extremely quickly.

Meanwhile, the black-robed old man that the Golden-striped Silver Snake had transformed into had invited over a few fellow subjects in the imperial palace of the Cloudsurge Empire. They had gathered in a luxurious hall.

His name was Tian Sheng, and he was well established in the Cloudsurge Empire. He was on good terms with most of the subjects in the Cloudsurge Empire.

Tian Shang had been heavily wounded by Xu Ran. His body had been cut in half. Even though he had reconnected the two parts, wounds still lingered, and he needed several years to make a full recovery.

As a result, he seemed pale-faced and haggard at the moment. He was sickly.

“The Tian Yuan clan of the Cloud Plane is far too bold. They’ve actually come to our Delight Plane to make trouble…”

“Not only did they make trouble, but they were even so arrogant about it. They actually injured a subject of our Cloudsurge Empire. That’s like a slap to our empire’s face…”

“That’s a huge provocation of our empire. We have to make them pay a heavy price…”

“We should pass down orders immediately to seal up the teleportation formations so that they can’t leave the Delight Plane. Once the Rain Abbess and everyone else returns, we will report it to her. We will kill our way onto the Cloud Plane and destroy the Tian Yuan clan. We will demonstrate the strength of our Cloudsurge Empire to everyone on the Delight Plane…”

“Tian Shang, lead the way. We’ll destroy them together…”

After learning about what Tian Shang went through, the four subjects gathered present were all furious. They spoke righteously as they gave off powerful presences.

As the greatest organisation on the Delight Plane, only Chaotic Primes had the right to hold the position of subject of the empire.

“There’s an extremely powerful old woman among them. She’s a Fifth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime at the very least. We’re barely enough to deal with her.” Tian Shan shook his head gently. Even though there were five Chaotic Primes gathered here, their cultivation levels were the same as his. They were all early Chaotic Primes, so there was still a difference between them and Xu Ran.

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a man in red armor walked in. He gave off a fiery presence.

With his entry, the temperature in the entire hall rapidly rose.

“So what if she’s a Fifth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime? Since she’s bold enough to infringe on our Cloudsurge Plane, we can’t let them leave the Delight Plane alive,” said the armored man coldly and emotionlessly.
