The hundred thousand gods stood vigilantly and readied themselves for war against the one-man army. City Lord Yu Jun of the Sixth Divine City was a Creator himself. Ever since his appointment, the wildman Fu Li had waged war against his city far more times than he could count.

Just recently, Fu Li lead the Star Torrent Fortress's other wildmen to invade the city. They successfully raided the city, enslaving countless gods from the Sixth Divine City. If it weren't for him that ran faster than the others, perhaps even the city lord would've been enslaved as well.

Why is this wildman always here for our Sixth Divine City? What fetish is this that keeps bringing him here instead of any other divine cities…?  The grey-haired City Lord Yu Jun stood on the city wall, murmuring to himself in anxiety.

Fu Li hoisted his huge bone club onto his shoulders as he grinned, "City Lord Yu Jun, long time no see, how are you?"

"Wildman Fu Li, what do you want?" City Lord Yu Jun shouted back, "Today, do not dare of laying foot in my divine city!"

Mu Suge quickly interrupted, "City lord, I am Xian Tian Palace's Mu Suge, ordered by the higher-ups to make Fu Li yield and recruit him. City lord, you may now be at ease. This is Mister Yi, King Yi of our Xian Tian Palace."

This wildman was made to yield? City Lord Yu Jun was shocked, he took out a mirror and shone it on Mu Suge, inspecting his identity. As soon as he verified that Mu Suge wasn't a disguise, he heaved a breath of relief and opened the city gates to welcome the trio. He laughed happily, "Third Prince Mu is truly exceptional, to even make this wildman yield. You've helped remove a major migraine from our Sixth Divine City."

Mu Suge thanked humbly, then said, "Brother Fu Li and the Star Torrent Fortress has been recruited, they will be no threat to the Sixth Divine City anymore. Yu Jun, please be at ease."

City Lord Yu Jun laughed, "I've never been afraid of him before! Little Brother Fu Li, how presumptuous you wildmen were, how is it that you people are now willing to be recruited? Now, do you know how mighty heaven is?"

Fu Li waved his huge bone club and smirked nefariously, "Little old man, you haven't been enough beating lately, have you? What almighty heaven? I am recruited by the Xian Tian Palace, not the Heaven Court!"

City Lord Yu Jun didn't dare to provoke further, he quickly smiled, "The Sixth Divine City is one of the divine cities in the Zi Wei Galaxy, we don't belonging to Heavenly Monarch's faction either."

Then, Zhong Yue smiled with hidden meaning, he said, "City lord, the situations is still not clear yet between the Heaven Court and Xian Tian Palace. The Sixth Divine City floats alone in the ancient universe, it is a good location yet at the same time, a perilous one. Make decisions only when the outcome is clear, then your city will be a good location; otherwise, it'd be more than easy to tear a city down into ruins in the ancient universe."

City Lord Yu Jun stiffened up his heart, he thanked, "Thank you for the guidance, Mister Yi. Yu Jun knows what should be done."

"Open the gates, quickly."

"The gates, now!"

Zhong Yue traced the clamor to outside the city and his heart skipped a beat. Fourteen huge earthen jars were being flown to the city outskirts

"The Heavenly Prison's wardens!" City Lord Yu Jun exclaimed in shock and quickly ordered the city gates to be opened.

Any form of flying above the city would immediately be seen as threat, and thus, countless seals and slaughtering arrays were placed in the skies of the Sixth Divine City.

Zhong Yue was quiet and unmoved as the city gates opened. The Heavenly Wardens sealed in the earthen jars flew into the city. Their faces were dark and gloomy and City Lord Yu Jun stepped forward in an attempt to help disarm the seals and release the 14 Heavenly Wardens.

"Don't touch anything!" One of the Heavenly Wardens shouted strictly, "The Jitong Clan has used a monarch weapon to seal us into one with these godly jars. Do not touch a single thing, these earthen jars are linked to our lives. They break, we die!"

City Lord Yu Jun was greatly shocked and quickly stopped.

The 14 earthen jars and the 14 Heavenly Wardens were forged into a kind of peculiar living creatures by the Jitong Clan's monarch weapon. Half of them were the flesh and blood while the other were divine weapons. Contained within the earthen jars was their flesh but while the jars were initially a container, they were now fused to their bodies and Yuan Shen into a singular entity!

This was beyond the realm of mere skills, this was a means to wield the art of Six Paths Reincarnations, to use it to recreate existing living creatures into a new form of life!

Clearly, these 14 Heavenly Wardens were defeated by the Jitong Clan experts. Then, the Jitong Clan joined them together with the earthen jars as humiliation.

This Jitong Clan is really audacious, they even dare to fight the Heavenly Wardens. Rays flashed across Zhong Yue's eyes and he thought, Moreover, they turned the Heavenly Wardens into half earthen jar creatures! Can the Heaven Court and Heavenly Prison endure such unconcealed humiliations? Seems like this universe is really tumbling into chaos. A war that would suck all of the Zi Wei Galaxy and ancient universe is inevitable!

The Jitong Clan was challenging the new order, the Heavenly Monarch. This alone proved that the Jitong Clan was looking to disrupt the status quo, and that they had wild ambitions.

When the 14 Heavenly Wardens returned, the Heaven Court and Heavenly Prison would find themselves shamed relentlessly by the Jitong Clan. Seeing that their fame and reputation was trashed, as the Heavenly Monarch and the ruler of the new order, Heavenly Monarch Di Ming would no doubt take swift on the Jitong Clan.

After all, he was the Son of Heaven, and the Heavenly Wardens were the servants to the "Heaven". Thus, as the Son of Heaven, he would have to defend their name and reputation.

But if the Zi Wei Galaxy marched for the Jitong Clan, they would have to enter the ancient universe. This alone would immediately break the stalemate between the celestials and demons in the ancient universe that had lasted for eons!

Currently, the ancient universe's celestials and demons were in eternal conflict. After eons of war and death, they had finally reached a very delicate truce, just like Zhong Yue's [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art].

However, if the Zi Wei Galaxy's forces really did march upon the ancient universe, they would act like a rock that was crashed down into a pool of still water. The balance of Yin and Yang, celestial and demon, would crumble in an instant, and chaos would quickly ensue!

The monarch races like Jinwu Clan would surely stand against the Heaven Court's forces while the demon race's monarch races would try to reap the most benefits from both sides. This would eventually lead to the outbreak of war between the celestials and demons, erupting the longstanding hatred of the ancient universe's celestials and demons.

Although the Jitong Clan was definitely intentionally doing it of their free will, the mastermind and true culprit was no doubt Si Ming. Zhong Yue thought, Consort Tian Si brought chaos to the Zi Wei Galaxy and Si Ming erupted chaos in the ancient universe. The two of them are both talents no weaker than the best of men. First, the Zi Wei Galaxy, followed by the ancient universe. The next area would then have to be the 3,000 Six Paths Worlds?
