Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When the people of the Great Thousand World saw the Extraterritorial Race again, it was when the war had broken out at the Great Thousand World's border. Blood and fire took away the peace that the Great Thousand World had enjoyed for the past 49,000 years.
The Extraterritorial Race's attacks were savage, without any mercy. They seemed to be releasing the anger that they had been holding onto from the oppression that they had received from the Great Thousand World. The Demonic Shadows whooshed across the border like grasshoppers, and strong Demonic Energy shot up into the sky. The Extraterritorial Race seemed determined to take over the Great Thousand World.
The Great Thousand World had been preparing themselves for the past few years, and after a moment of silence, fought back fiercely in the face of the Extraterritorial Race's attacks.
War broke out at every point along the defensive line. As the Demonic Shadows whooshed all over the area, spiritual light flashed as well. It was as if the area were holding a grand fireworks party. However, the beautiful fireworks were formed by blood.
A towering city hung in the sky behind the layers of strong defense. Spiritual light spread out and engulfed all the defensive lines, and under the protection of the spiritual light, the people of the Great Thousand World recovered their spiritual energy at a faster rate.
The fortress-like city was the headquarters of the Great Thousand World Alliance. In the fortress, the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor were watching over the battlefront, and at the same time, they were guarding against the Heavenly Evil Deity's attack.
Spiritual light surrounded the city in the form of an Ancestral Master Spiritual Array known as the Sun Circulatory Array. Qing Yanjing and several other Spiritual Array Ancestral Masters had worked together to set up the array. As long as the people in the Great Thousand World were in the array, they could recover their spiritual energy in the shortest possible time, and their power would be greatly enhanced. It was a great wartime weapon. It was due to this array that the defense team could hang on under the Extraterritorial Race's continuous attack.
A big hall stood at the top of the city, and several people were currently standing in the hall. Each of them exuded strong spiritual energy fluctuations. At the front of the hall, two thrones were placed side by side, and the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor were sitting on the thrones. The two of them had a grim look on their faces. They were basically the leaders of the Great Thousand World at the moment, and even Qin Tian, who was the Master of the Great Thousand Palace, had no objection to it.
Qin Tian, the Green Shirt Sword Saint, the Real Dragon Emperor, Maha Tian, Qing Yanjing, the First Elders, and the clan leaders of the five main ancient clans were standing in the hall. Even those old demons who had been living in seclusion had come out and gathered with them. Basically, the most powerful people in the Great Thousand World had gathered in the hall.
Although all the masters had come together, they had a grave look on their faces. Their bodies were tense, and the spiritual energy around them surged intensely.
The Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor looked at each other, and the Flame Emperor opened his mouth and said, ”All of you know by now that the Extraterritorial Race has started to fight back. That is to say, the war that determines whether our Great Thousand World will continue to survive or perish has started.”
After the Flame Emperor had made the statement, all the masters in the hall squinted, and an immense killing intent filled up the area. Qin Tian said in a deep voice as he cupped his fist at the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor, ”Flame Emperor, Martial Ancestor, please pass down the order. Our Great Thousand World is ready to fight with the Extraterritorial Race!”
The rest of them had a sharp look in their eyes. Since they could not avoid the war, they would fight it out with the Extraterritorial Race in order to protect their sects, family, and friends.
The Flame Emperor nodded, and his cold voice resounded in the hall, saying, ”All lords, listen up. From now on, gather the top powers who are under your care and rush over to the battlefront. There must be a master who is at the later stage of the Divine Heavenly Sovereign level at every continent in the front line. This is to guard yourselves against the Heaven Demon Emperors from the Extraterritorial Race.”
”Yes, sir!” Qin Tian and many masters at the later stage of the Divine Heavenly Sovereign level replied.
”The Extraterritorial Race has taken over much of the Lower Planes, and the Lower Planes may be connected to the internal region of our Great Thousand World. Form a patrol team and check around. If you discover any of the Extraterritorial Race, kill them immediately!”
The masters in the main hall shouted in unison, ”Yes, sir!”
The Martial Ancestor looked at all of them in the hall and said calmly, ”The Flame Emperor and I will stay here. This time around, the two of us are unable to take part in the battle for the time being, and we will have to depend on you to hold the fort.”
Some of the masters looked baffled and asked, ”Martial Ancestor, why can't the two of you join us?” Without those two superpowers, it seemed as though it would be tough for them to win the war.
The Flame Emperor lifted up his head, and his eyes burned with fire. He seemed to be piercing through the void, and he fixed his gaze on a spot and said, ”The Heavenly Evil Deity is eyeing the two of us somewhere out there, and we have to look out for him as well.”
