They are all descendants of the Red Emperor, the most loyal followers of the Red Emperor.
The Red Emperor nodded, his expression solemn as he spoke: "Go! Achieve victory in a low voice and attain the glory that belongs to us, the Red Emperor!"
"We adhere to Your Majesty's command!" After bowing, all six strong individuals confidently walked onto the battlefield!
The Jade Emperor's side also dispatched six competitors!
They are Gu Ji, Yu Long, Qi Hu, Zhang Taiyue, Liu Wenzhao, and Marquis Ningyuan!
Under the banner of the Jade Emperor, these six strong ones consist of three True Immortals and three Supreme Overlords.
Gu Ji needs little introduction; although he has been somewhat low-key in the Heavenly Court over the years, many newly ascended strong ones consider him obscure and insignificant.
But those who truly understand know that he originally had a profound relationship with the Longevity Taoist Monarch. The two met at an insignificant time, and the reason for his years of retreat was due to receiving guidance from the Longevity Taoist Monarch, which led him to recently step into the True Immortal Sixth Layer Heaven Realm.
Yu Long and Qi Hu, these two, are the renowned Divine Generals under the Jade Emperor. They initially followed under the banner of the Emperor Wenchang and stood out in the Conferred God War, leading a division independently. Not only are they capable generals, but their strength is also exceptionally formidable.
As for Zhang Taiyue, Liu Wenzhao, and Marquis Ningyuan, each of these three represents factions under the Jade Emperor, including Civil Officials, Military Generals, and Factory Guards.
The appearance of these individuals clearly illustrates the Jade Emperor's side determination to win!
Similarly, the Red Emperor's dispatched strong ones are not to be underestimated. Among those True Immortals, without much need for elaboration, are Supreme Overlords that can be regarded as top-tier, experts worthy of being called Sovereigns!
In today's era, there are too many strong ones on the Supreme level, even if the same five-star battle power division existed, such classifications have gradually become somewhat crude.
Therefore, some have begun referring to themselves as Sovereigns or Emperors, as some Supreme Overlord strong ones possess the ability to establish a Dynasty or imperial court, and thus can be referred to as Sovereigns or Emperor Monarchs.
Every entity that can be called a Sovereign or Emperor Monarch is unbeatable at the Supreme Overlord level.
Nevertheless, some strong ones at the Supreme Overlord level do not have the qualifications to be bestowed with the king's title!
Those who can be called Emperor Monarchs, while still holding the Supreme Overlord level, have battle power sufficient to challenge True Immortals and suppress them.
During the Myriad Laws Realm trial, the battle power displayed by Zhang Taiyue, Liu Wenzhao, and Marquis Ningyuan has already been extremely formidable. Now, after such a long time, they have undoubtedly grown further.
Therefore, outside the battlefield, many strong individuals hold a bleak outlook for the Red Emperor's lineage!
Nonetheless, the decision of which side sends strong ones to fight first will also impact the outcome of the battle!
The side that fights first often suffers losses!
The reason is simple, akin to Tian Ji's horse-racing strategy; opponents can choose corresponding strong participants based on the weaknesses of the strong ones you send, gaining an innate advantage!
Is there ever absolute fairness in the world? Determining which side sends participants first depends on luck!
Like guessing in Go, the two sides need to conduct a small gamble to decide the order of sending participants.
By selecting a special Divine Material that isolates the spiritual consciousness of cultivators from detecting, thus creating a box with it inside and placing a piece, they guess whether the pieces are odd or even in number. The losing side must first send a strong participant to fight!
This method is very fair, and up until now, no strong participant has been able to cheat!
This time, it is the Jade Emperor's side guessing the color!
Gu Ji stepped forward and calmly said: "Even number!"
Yan Wu True Immortal smirked and waved his hand, shattering the box, revealing the number of pieces in the air!
Both sides' strong individuals held their breath, staring intently at the pieces, eager to see if it was indeed correct.
This would directly affect the battle's outcome!
The multitude of strong onlookers outside also fixed their eyes on this peculiar stone!
Everything dissipated like smoke!
"Even number! It truly is even!" Marquis Ningyuan exclaimed in joyous surprise.
The Jade Emperor's side naturally donned smiling faces, as if victory was already assured!
The Red Emperor's lineage, though slightly disappointed, ultimately held strong confidence in their side's ability, wearing smiles of their own.
A few strong participants flew up high, solemnly declaring:
"Above the Heavenly Path: Yan Wu, Chi Wu, Chi Yue, Jiang Yanhuo, Jiang Yan, Gu Ji, Yu Long, Qi Hu, Zhang Taiyue, Liu Wenzhao, Li Ningyuan! We announce to the heavens and earth! To compete and seek heavenly approval in this challenge!"
In a flash, the twelve images transformed into twelve beams of light, vanishing into the shadowless Heavenly Path!
In an instant, sounds of agitation from the Ancient Era resounded in the heavens and earth!
The dark void revealed a bright area, faintly resembling the celestial stars, with countless beams of star light descending, permeating the atmosphere with profound mystic fragrances!
Beneath the feet of the twelve suddenly appeared an ancient altar, not resembling Tai Chi Yin and Yang, Three Talents and Four Images, or Eight Trigrams and celestial stars!
No one knows what constructed it; the altar was covered with dense talismanic truthful inscriptions, seemingly transforming in appearance, indistinct and unclear!
"Approved!" A steady, timeless voice resonated from the Nine Heavens Chaos!
This is the most original voice of heaven and earth, devoid of any emotions; it is the Original Source of Heaven and Earth consciousness, also known as the Heavenly Path, intertwined with the infinite Laws!
The twelve strong individuals felt a binding sensation enveloping them, acknowledging heaven and earth's approval for the challenge!
Only when a battle's result emerges, will this heavenly binding disappear!
"Jiang Yanhuo, you shall fight first in this battle!" Yan Wu True Immortal's voice resounded with authority from the heaven and earth, as if his words were synonymous with Heaven and Earth Rules, highlighting Yan Wu True Immortal's might!
Jiang Yanhuo stepped into the black altar, raising a pair of indifferent eyes, looking at his opponent, he boldly spoke: "From the Red Emperor's lineage, Flame King, I wonder who will come forth to fight?"
From the Jade Emperor's side, the True Immortals exchanged glances, looking past Zhang Taiyue and others, finally resting their gaze on Liu Wenzhao.
The opposition has dispatched a strong participant from the Supreme level; naturally, they will match it with a participant from the same level.
This Jiang Yanhuo is the ancestor of the Fire Divine Dynasty, a top Overlord able to be called King, certainly formidable.
Yet Liu Wenzhao, an Independent Practitioner with vast experience in Combat Skills, has ample assurance in his actions.
"Liu Qianshi, we'll leave this battle to you," Gu Ji remarked.
Returning from the Myriad Laws Realm, Liu Wenzhao was promoted to Brocade Guards Commanding Officer for his contributions, marking his entry into the core circle of the Jade Emperor's lineage.
"I obey the command," Liu Wenzhao did not hesitate.
He directly stepped into the black altar, radiating a confident smile!
When his figure entered the altar, beams of black light suddenly shot out from the altar, enshrouding it, preventing other strong individuals from affecting the internal battle!
"I, Liu Wenzhao of the Brocade Guards, seek to experience your great techniques!" Liu Wenzhao stated with a calm demeanor.
Upon seeing Liu Wenzhao enter, Jiang Yanhuo slightly furrowed his brows, then relaxed them.
The opponent appeared to have just recently entered the top Supreme Overlord level, yet their aura of execution remained unchecked.
Upon realizing the opponent hailed from the Brocade Guards, Jiang Yanhuo understood. After all, he was familiar with the renowned Brocade Guards under the Jade Emperor.
Some may view the Brocade Guards as lackeys, but being trusted by the Jade Emperor, such an institution is undoubtedly strong, not to mention the opponent ranked as high within the Brocade Guards.
Outside the battlefield, the Red Emperor stood near Taoist Monarch Tianji and boldly inquired: "Taoist Monarch, in your opinion, who will win this battle?"
Taoist Monarch Tianji smiled and shook his head, saying: "I shall not partake, let's just wait and see."
