Chapter 1154: Chasing Them to the Outer Realms (1/2)

The ghost ancestor’s true body retreated well into the polluted zone of the chaos, its laughing and crying expression flickering uncertainly.

It’d been the three-eyed man who’d personally crafted the plan for the demise of the Creation sacred prince. However, he was now missing and the Creation sacred prince here instead. Not only that, but the prince was in residence at Mount Buzhou and protecting the foundation of the worlds.

With such a powerhouse holding down the fort, even a dozen sovereigns wouldn’t be able to take the mountain. That the Creation sacred prince hadn’t erupted in an all out slaughter and smashed the ghost ancestor to death was only due to wariness of the latter’s patron.

If the ghost ancestor died, then its backer would throw all caution to the wind. Things would truly become dangerous if that resulted in the arrival of a great master from the chaos.

The minor scuffles between the chaos and the world of immortals currently maintained a delicate balance. Both sides kept certain aces up their sleeves and didn’t pull out all of their trump cards or fight to the death.

Both Fuxi and Lu Yun knew that if the ghost ancestor died, then those of the third realm would be compelled to act and break this balance.

Having retreated deeper in the chaos, the ghost ancestor found its immortal lord replica being suppressed within the four Abysses of Divine Burial. Space between the fissures broke apart and they slowly melded into one abyss.

They were a creation of the ghost ancestor to begin with.

It’d known how to control the divine race after stealing the opportunity of the Exalted divines all those ages ago. Then, it’d spent countless years creating several Abysses of Divine Burial for burying the divines.

All of them had been shattered, leaving only these last four. These also contained the last of the ghost ancestor’s core essence in the world of immortals and was its strongest source of power. As long as these fissures remained, its replica couldn’t be destroyed.

Now that they were becoming one abyss, the ghost ancestor brought out an unknown treasure to project a watertight defense that fully encased the Abyss of Divine Burial. It then burrowed inside, becoming unassailable no matter how viciously Ge Long’s four swords stabbed at the abyss. The fissure only trembled slightly, but remained intact.

“Come, let us head to the outer realms,” Ge Long said to the ten Yama Kings as he looked beyond the facets to where the World Gates once stood.

“Let’s go!” The ten headed to space, followed closely by four streaks of light that were Ge Long’s swords.

Unrest and upheaval continuously erupted in all thirty-three facets as enemies sought to destabilize the world of immortals from the inside. Hidden experts on Lu Yun’s side appeared one after another, shooting for the battlefield in the other realms whenever they took care of local disorder.

The Deaf Prince and the other prodigals, Jing Huaci, and the Yin Prince also headed to the World Gates with their great weapons of space and time.

Therein lay the true heart of the struggle.

Upon the shores of the North Sea, after the tidal waves receded, Goldenlight and Silverlight jointly slew all of the human traitors. Instead of also making for the outer realms, they hacked their way back to Dusk Province. There were still many race traitors to take care of there.

These traitors were all human supremacists, viewing humanity as the rightful ruler of the heavens and all other life as livestock and slaves for their ownership and enjoyment.

At the end of the era of human dao, apart from influence from chaos creatures, the fundamental reason for all other races betraying humanity was the existence of these extremists. Life itself had been forced into fighting for its future.

This select group of humans was once again on the scene, seeking to revert to human dominance and rule the heavens once again. All races should take their rightful place—beneath the heel of the human race!

This ran completely counter to the intent of the immortal dao. Though it centered on the human race, it was the dao of all. When human dao was first established, trailblazers Flame and Yellow Emperor created a sanctuary for humanity in the great wilderness. They did so not only through absolute strength and supremacy, but also with benevolence and tolerance that encompassed all races of the great wilderness.

However, the humans rampaging through Dusk Province recalled only violence and peremptory tyranny.

Heavyweights that’d survived the human dao era appeared in Dusk Province and waged a furious campaign on Mount Xuanhuang, seeking to occupy the mountain of immortal dao, the Dao Academy, and regain control over the great dao.
