Chapter 857: Arriving With a Bang!

The entire battle situation was extremely intense, and in the highest point in the cosmos, a battle between Planet realms was happening. It was the Sovereign Patriarch fighting two Planet realms from the Violet Gold civilization on his own!

Among the two Planet realms, one was the leader of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, while the other was the left-hand elder. The former was a mid-stage Planet realm, while the latter was an early-stage Planet realm. They both had astonishing combat strength. Theoretically speaking, it should have been extremely easy for them to suppress the Sovereign Patriarch by teaming up. However, the Sovereign Patriarch’s combat strength gave them a huge shock!

According to the information they obtained, the Sovereign Patriarch of the three greater sects had cultivation similar to that of the Violet Gold civilization’s patriarch. If one really calculated it, the Sovereign Patriarch might have been slightly stronger, but there was a limit, and there wasn’t much difference between their cultivation levels. The Earth Hexagram Unity Sect’s Planet realm cultivator was the one with the weakest cultivation level, so when the Violet Gold civilization appeared, they chose to eliminate the Earth Hexagram Unity Sect first.

Afterward, the sect lord and the left-hand elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect went to fight the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect together. According to their analysis, with their combat strength, they could definitely eliminate the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect extremely quickly. However, they absolutely didn’t expect that the Sovereign Patriarch… actually hid his cultivation!

He wasn’t an early-stage Planet realm cultivator, but a… mid-stage Planet realm cultivator. In fact, he was already close to reaching the peak of the mid-stage Planet realm. And, his combat strength had exceeded that of ordinary Planet realms. Hence, even though the sect lord of the Heavenly Spirit Sect also had extraordinary combat strength, the Sovereign Patriarch still held his own against the two of them, and it was difficult to determine who had the upper hand!

The battle between those with peak combat strength extended the battle. At the same time, the butler of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect, who Wang Baole had seen before and who seemed to be Fairy Ling You’s senior, was also fighting back with all his strength alongside the first army’s commander, Daoist Gu Mo. Their opponents were three perfected stage Spirit Immortals from the Violet Gold civilization.

While fighting a two versus three battle was extremely difficult, the other Spirit Immortals were also fighting with all their strength. Fairy Ling You, the Black Armor Legion’s commander, Yi Nianzi, and all of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect Spirit Immortal cultivators had heavy injuries. But they all gritted their teeth and resisted tenaciously, containing a huge number of opposing Spirit Immortals.

Besides, all of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s armies were activated and seemed to split the cosmos into over ten areas as they fought tooth and nail with the Violet Gold civilization cultivators.

In an instant, rumbles, roars, and screams sounded and echoed everywhere. Occasionally, one could hear sounds of planets cracking. While this caused the battle to become even more horrifying, one could also see that the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect was at a huge disadvantage!

That was because… the Violet Gold civilization’s Heavenly Spirit Sect obviously had more Spirit Immortal cultivators than the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect. Even though many were being contained, there were still several Spirit Immortal cultivators who charged into the army. The Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s various armies found it hard to resist them and could only use the power of array formations and sacrifice Soul Conduit cultivators’ lives to forcefully buy some time. But this obviously couldn’t be sustained for long, and they would eventually collapse.

And once the armies collapsed, the battle situation, which was already bad, would worsen even more. The Divine Sovereign Justice Sect would become just like the Earth Hexagram Unity Sect as a result.

Such a situation appeared due to the strength of the Violet Gold civilization, but it was also more or less related to Wang Baole. That was because the Violet Gold civilization had already fully analyzed the strength of all of the top cultivators and armies in the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect before attacking. Wang Baole’s Soul Rift Legion was the second-ranked army, so his disappearance naturally weakened the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect.

If it were any other time, his disappearance might not mean much, but during this crucial point in the battle, it became very important.

So after the battle had gone on for a while, the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect was obviously unable to stand firm. Even though the Sovereign Patriarch could still carry on, Daoist Gu Mo and the butler had already started faltering against the three perfected stage Spirit Immortals.

At the same time, Fairy Ling You and the others also became unable to stand firm, as they were working to contain more Spirit Immortals than the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect had. Their injuries worsened, and all of the armies in the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect were the same. Slowly, they became unable to trap a few Spirit Immortals, and almost all of the Soul Conduit cultivators were killed.

Seeing that, everyone in the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect was angry, desperate, and sad. Meanwhile, the eyes of the sect lord of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, who was fighting the Sovereign Patriarch, suddenly flashed. He suddenly spoke, and his voice echoed throughout the battlefield.

“Fellow Daoist Sovereign, at this point, your Divine Sovereign Justice Sect has no way out. I can give you a choice right now. Join my Heavenly Spirit Sect and become my sect’s subordinate. What do you think?”

“Invading my civilization, killing my fellow Daoists, and destroying my sect. Even if I die fighting here, I won’t do such a cowardly thing as becoming your subordinate!” The Sovereign Patriarch had an ugly expression and also felt intense desperation in his heart. But he had his own values to adhere to. As one of the patriarchs of the three greater sects, and the strongest one among them, he was originally really ambitious. So even now, he still had his pride!

So as he spoke, he raised his right hand and weaved a hand seal. Instantly, black planets transmogrified and exploded forth as he fought with the two from the Heavenly Spirit Sect again.

Seeing that, the sect lord of the Heavenly Spirit Sect suppressed the Sovereign Patriarch while sneering. He spoke again, but this time, he wasn’t persuading the Sovereign Patriarch. Instead, he spoke to all Divine Sovereign Justice Sect disciples.

“He’ll cause his own demise! All disciples of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect, no matter what decision your patriarch makes, your lives are in your hands. The path of cultivation isn’t easy, and you only have one chance. Anyone who surrenders will be spared. You will then enter the Heavenly Spirit Sect and become one of us!”

Not every cultivator had convictions as strong as those of the Sovereign Patriarch. That was especially so in this life and death situation. And when they couldn’t see any hope, many were swayed by the Heavenly Spirit Sect Patriarch’s words.

Towards this… the Sovereign Patriarch remained silent and no longer spoke. He knew that he treated the disciples in his sect well, but he also knew that, at this point, it was only natural for them to choose to live.

However, he didn’t expect that the first army’s commander, Daoist Gu Mo, who was unhappy towards him and was most likely to choose to live at that moment, didn’t make that choice. Instead, his subordinate, Vice-Commander Yi Nianzi… actually retreated and growled without any hesitation.

“Heavenly Spirit Patriarch, I surrender!”

When he spoke, the entire battlefield shook, and a large number of Divine Sovereign Justice Sect cultivators were swayed even more. In reality… even though an early-stage Spirit Immortal didn’t mean much to a Planet realm, to other cultivators, a Spirit Immortal was already a mighty figure and represented a position of high prestige and status. And because Yi Nianzi was the first army’s vice-commander, the fact that he surrendered naturally swayed even more people.

Instantly, the expressions of Fairy Ling You, the Black Armor Legion’s commander, and the other Spirit Immortals all turned ugly. But the one with the ugliest expression wasn’t the Sovereign Patriarch, it was the first army’s commander, Daoist Gu Mo.

“Yi Nianzi, you’re asking for it!” Daoist Gu Mo, who was trying his best to resist the three perfected stage Spirit Immortals from the Heavenly Spirit Sect alongside the butler, had an intense killing intent explode forth from his eyes as he glared at the retreating Yi Nianzi.

“Commander, we’ll definitely lose this battle. It’s not that I’m an ingrate, it’s because I have no other choice!” Yi Nianzi sustained heavy injuries, and as he spoke, there was still blood at the corners of his mouth. He had a frenzied look and didn’t care that he bumped into Divine Sovereign Justice Sect disciples as he retreated. With his Spirit Immortal cultivation, he actually killed many disciples by bumping into them as he retreated.

“Good. Yi Nianzi was it? From now on, you’re a member of the Heavenly Spirit Sect. We will calculate your battle credits starting now. The more you kill, the more items you can exchange for when you return to the sect. If you can kill a Spirit Immortal, I assure you that you can receive a Heavenly Spirit Pill that will allow you to break through to the mid-stage Spirit Immortal realm!” Seeing that scene, the Heavenly Spirit Patriarch laughed loudly. After a glimmer of disdain and ridicule flashed deep within his eyes, he spoke words of encouragement.

The moment he spoke, one could see from Yi Nianzi’s eyes that he was struggling. But very quickly, a ferocious glimmer flashed through his eyes as he suddenly looked towards Fairy Ling You, who was already retreating step by step, in front of him!

Fairy Ling You had the weakest cultivation, and she was also more heavily injured than him. Killing intent glowed in Yi Nianzi’s eyes as he flicked his body, about to charge out.

But at that moment… suddenly, far away in the cosmos, a rumble sounded. The sound was astonishing, and one could see a long rainbow that seemed to cut open the cosmos as it sped towards the battlefield. In the previous moment, it was still far away. But in the next moment… the long rainbow charged directly into the battlefield. Its sheer speed shocked the souls of all Spirit Immortals, including Daoist Gu Mo and the butler. Even the Sovereign Patriarch, the sect lord of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, and the left-hand elder had their expressions change.

And just as their expressions changed, the long rainbow appeared directly in front of the shocked Yi Nianzi. Without pausing, a hand stretched out from the long rainbow, ignoring all of his divine powers and resistance, and grabbed his neck!

As the long rainbow dissipated, Wang Baole’s silhouette appeared on the battlefield. He raised his right hand and clutched Yi Nianzi. No matter how much Yi Nianzi struggled, he couldn’t escape. In fact, he couldn’t even speak. It was only after he could see who arrived clearly that an unprecedented sense of shock and disbelief appeared in his eyes.

“Hey, leader of the Heavenly Spirit Sect or whatever. If I kill this Yi Nianzi, can I exchange for that Heavenly Spirit Pill you were talking about?” Wang Baole coughed and looked towards the sect lord of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, who wore a gloomy expression and looked equally shocked.
