Everlasting Immortal Firmament

Chapter 017: Increasingly Chaotic

Book 6: Chapter 017: Increasingly Chaotic


After Prime Feng Yue and Prime Shangguan Hen settled in the Silver Moon Sea, it had fallen under the black tortoises’ rule.


Silver Moon Island, the center of the Silver Moon Sea:


Shangguan Hen sat in a small courtyard, with a zither puppet before him, drinking by himself.


Elder Miao stood respectfully at the side. He frowned slightly and said, “Prime, I have already looked outside. They are still there.”


Shangguan Hen’s hand paused as he revealed a cold smile. “Hah! The Heavenly Go Pavilion? They are still monitoring me? Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!”


“Prime, do we need to pit ourselves against the Heavenly Go Pavilion?” Elder Miao Chen asked with a bitter smile.


“It is not that I’m pitting myself against the Heavenly Go Pavilion. I am doing this now to protect the black tortoise race. Prime Feng Yue? Hah! He must be part of Old Mister Guan Qi’s arrangements. The black tortoise race nearly got destroyed the last time. If we are careless, we might suffer a calamity with no way to recover from it,” Shangguan Hen said.


“Ah? Why?” Miao Chen asked in confusion.


“It is because of His Majesty. Hah! It is not like you have never heard about what happened in the Heavenly Realm. Who killed the Supreme Wa? Who killed the Supreme Genesis? Who killed Long Zhanguo?” Shangguan Hen said.


“Gu Hai was just lucky!”


“Lucky? Hah! Many people used to think that Gu Hai was lucky. However, those many people died. I have followed Gu Hai for many years. I can see it clearly. Don’t look at the process. Don’t look at Gu Hai’s cultivation. Look at the results. If we betray the Han Royal Dynasty for the Heavenly Go Pavilion today, the black tortoise race will disappear from the world in the future,” Shangguan Hen said.


“That can’t be, right? Isn’t Gu Hai dead?”


“Have you seen the corpse?” Shangguan Hen looked at Miao Chen.


“N-no! If there were a corpse of Gu Hai, the Han Royal Dynasty would have crumbled long ago.”


“Indeed. Many people think His Majesty is dead, but I do not. He is too resilient, even more so than Long Zhanguo. He will return. When he returns, it will be the time of destruction for those scoundrels,” Shangguan Hen said.


“Uh…yes!” Miao Chen nodded with some doubt.


“How goes the spreading of information?” Shangguan Hen looked at Miao Chen.


“Prime, you are trapped in the Silver Moon Sea right now. However, don’t worry. Many in the black tortoise race are still loyal to you. They have followed your instructions and sent out many black tortoises to disseminate information. They have even spread the news of the Heavenly Go Pavilion and the Wu Imperial Dynasty sending soldiers to Borderless Heavenly Capital. I’m sure that Borderless Heavenly Capital is already prepared.” Miao Chen nodded.


“Hah…how unfortunate! I still cannot do anything. If His Majesty were around, this information would be sufficient. Chen Tianshan…I hope he can deal with this,” Shangguan Hen sighed softly.


“However, Prime, you spread the information to all the factions in the region. Won’t that attract more people with bad intentions to head over?”


“That’s right. The more people with bad intentions there are, the muddier the waters. This will be more advantageous to Chen Tianshan. I hope he will grasp the chance properly. If this can reach His Majesty’s ears, it would be even better,” Shangguan Hen sighed.


After Shangguan Hen finished speaking, the zither puppet suddenly started talking.??e?????ov?l.c??


“Prime, this is Borderless Heavenly Capital here. Crown Prince Gu Qin brought Prime Feng Yue and a group of black tortoise warriors to pressure Chen Tianshan. They have already entered the heat of battle, but the Ying Imperial Dynasty’s Long Aotian arrived with a flying s.h.i.+p full of coffins. They are now in a deadlock.”


The zither puppet spoke, sending information from Borderless Heavenly Capital.


“The Ying Imperial Dynasty also sent people?” Miao Chen’s expression changed.


“Hah! It looks like the information we leaked about the Wu Imperial Dynasty and the Heavenly Go Pavilion worked. The Ying Imperial Dynasty also sent people? Hah! Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! The more people there are, the muddier the waters. Chen Tianshan, you must hold on.” Antic.i.p.ation flashed in Shangguan Hen’s eyes.


——


With Shangguan Hen’s advance warning, not just the Ying Imperial Dynasty sent someone. The various factions bordering the Han Nation sent people over too.


As the two royal dynasties and three lower-tier sects had been continuously capturing the Han Royal Dynasty’s cities, they enjoyed high morale.


All the city lords of the Han Royal Dynasty had undergone the baptism of the Asura Path Secret Realm. They had already reached the early-stage Lower Heavenly Palace Realm by now. They had lost despite such an advantage. This showed how strong these five factions were. They had Lower Heavenly Palace experts, at the very least. Some were even Middle Heavenly Palace experts.


Now, the two royal emperors and three sect masters led groups of experts as they hid in the surrounding forests. They coldly observed the distant Borderless Heavenly Capital.


Long Aotian and Gu Qin valued only the Han Nation’s corps commanders. However, these were not the only talents in the Han Nation. There were other slightly less talented people. These small factions were determined to have them.


Now that an enormous battle was starting, it was an excellent time to take advantage of the tumult. Perhaps there would be unexpected gains.


——


Borderless Heavenly Capital’s sky:


Long Aotian smiled coldly at Gu Qin below.


“Mister Mo, Mister Gao, my imperial father thinks extremely highly of you. He sent me here to invite the two of you to be guests in the Ying Imperial Dynasty. I hope you will not shun my invitation.” Long Aotian looked at the two again.


“Head to the Ying Imperial Dynasty as a guest? This old fellow does not have that fortune.” Mo Yike smiled and shook his head.


“This humble one does not have that fortune, either,” Gao Xianzhi said with an icy gaze.


“Does not have that fortune? Hah! Being valued by Imperial Father is precisely good fortune. Stop refusing. It is settled,” Long Aotian said overbearingly.


“Humph! Long Aotian, are you sure you want to pit yourself against me today?” Gu Qin looked at Long Aotian coldly.


Long Aotian sneered at Gu Qin. “The Han Nation’s crown prince? Hah! I did not expect you to become the Heavenly Go Palace’s lackey.”


“Gu Qin, there’s no need to waste your time on him. He can’t achieve much alone.” Prime Feng Yue’s eyes turned cold as he sent a palm strike towards the flying s.h.i.+p in the sky.


Long Aotian’s eyes turned cold. A black figure instantly s.h.i.+elded Long Aotian.


Boom!


The black figure countered with a palm strike, pulling a draw with Prime Feng Yue’s palm strike. The exchange produced a powerful shock wave that kicked up gales all over Borderless Heavenly Capital.


“A zombie? A jiangchen zombie?” Prime Feng Yue coldly eyed that black figure.


A zombie wearing imperial robes s.h.i.+elded Long Aotian.


“Prime Feng Yue? Haha! You are far from comparable to how you were eight centuries ago,” Long Aotian sneered.


Prime Feng Yue’s eyes turned cold. “Do you think I cannot do anything about you? Go, take down Long Aotian!”

“Roar!”


Dozens of black tortoises immediately roared and charged into the sky, unleas.h.i.+ng powerful auras. These black tortoises were all in the Heavenly Palace Realm.


“You are just a bunch of country b.u.mpkins, and you want to fight me? Open the coffins!” Long Aotian’s eyes turned cold.


Boom!


Loud sounds came from all the coffins on the flying s.h.i.+p as the coffin lids popped open.


When the coffin lids opened, the faces of Gu Qin and the others below sank.


They saw many zombies wearing official uniforms and military uniforms in the coffins. All the zombies had a yellow talisman pasted on their foreheads.


“Ten thousand jiangchen zombies?” Gu Qin’s expression changed.


Boom!


The ten thousand zombies charged forward, rus.h.i.+ng towards the dozens of black tortoises.


“Roar!”


The jiangchen zombies surrounded the black tortoises.


“Argh!”


“Argh!”


“Argh!”


Many miserable cries came from the black tortoises.


“You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Prime Feng Yue’s expression changed as he knocked back that jiangchen zombie sovereign.


Boom!


Prime Feng Yue swept away a group of zombies with a flip of his palm, allowing the black tortoises in the sky to escape. However, they were riddled with wounds; the various zombies had gouged out large chunks of their flesh.


“Peak Nascent Soul Realm zombies? No, there are many in the Heavenly Palace Realm?” Prime Feng Yue’s face sank.


“Roar!”


The zombie sovereign roared, and the ten thousand zombies immediately flew over, looking coldly at the black tortoises below.


“Peak Nascent Soul Realm? These are zombies that my imperial father found in a crypt. They all have talismans pasted on their foreheads. Once I remove their seals, they will all be in the Heavenly Palace Realm. Do you believe that?” Long Aotian sneered.


“Heavenly Palace Realm?” Gu Qin narrowed his eyes.


“Alright. I will not mess around anymore. Gu Qin, you take over the Han Royal Dynasty. I only want Mo Yike and Gao Xianzhi. You can’t stop me. Of course, you can try,” Long Aotian said with a haughty expression.


“Long Aotian, do you think your Heavenly Palace Realm zombies can sweep everything in their path? Have you forgotten about Gao Xianzhi’s one hundred thousand powerful soldiers?” Gu Qin sneered.


“The one hundred thousand powerful soldiers are only in the peak Nascent Soul Realm. How many have even broken through into the Heavenly Palace Realm? Humph! Since this crown prince dares to come today, I have the confidence to bring them away,” Long Aotian retorted coldly.


“Is that so? I wonder if Mister Sima will agree with that statement?” Gu Qin suddenly looked at a distant pavilion.


“Huh?” Long Aotian turned his head to look.


He saw a throng of azure-robed men standing at the top of that building. Their leaders were Sima Changkong and the dragon race’s crown prince, Ao Sheng.


Long Aotian’s face sank. “Sima Changkong? Ao Sheng? Humph! Are you planning to get in my way?”


“Roar!”


The figures of the many azure-clad men behind Ao Sheng suddenly enlarged, turning into over four thousand gigantic dragons soaring in the sky. They all appeared ferocious as they glowered at Long Aotian’s ten thousand zombies.


“Crown Prince Gu Qin, great eyesight. You actually noticed me here?” Sima Changkong frowned at Gu Qin.


“There is the saying, ‘The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.’ However, sometimes, ‘the early bird gets the worm’ is more appropriate,” Gu Qin said with a smile.


“Indeed. The early bird gets the worm. However, what can I obtain if I help you?” Sima Changkong smiled.


“It is not about what you can gain. Rather, what will you lose if you don’t help me?” Gu Qin riposted while shaking his head.


The situation complicated. The various factions that came to take advantage of the situation did not know how to take action as the conflict among them escalated.


The Soaring Palace Hall’s plaza was like the center of a whirlpool. Everyone there slowly grew anxious.


Not far away, Gu Hai calmly sipped tea in a restaurant. As he sampled the tea, he took in the surrounding chaos.


Whoos.h.!.+


Just as Gu Hai looked out coldly, a black figure suddenly flew into the restaurant where he was.


“Who is it?!”


“How bold!”


“How audacious!”


The posture of the black-robed vampires was as if they faced a powerful enemy.


Even Chang Ming’s expression changed as he s.h.i.+elded Gu Hai, poised to attack.


“It’s fine.” Gu Hai waved his hand.


“Huh?” Chang Ming looked at Gu Hai in confusion. However, he kept his guard up against the sudden arrival. That black-robed man stared at Chang Ming, waking in Chang Ming a sense of danger, as though a venomous snake was staring him down.


“Mosquito Daoist, isn’t it quite rude of you to look at my subordinate like this?” Gu Hai asked with a faint smile.
