“Not good. The netherworld race is here.”
“Oh my… A total of 13 ancient Sages and two Sage Kings!”
“This… So this is where the foundation of the netherworld race, one of the top 30 races in the primordial era, lies?”
“Hmph, so what if there are 13 ancient Sages? So what if they have two Sage Kings? The Elder King is no ordinary Sage King, and he has the Supreme Sage and imperial clans behind him. Why should we fear them?”
The disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land held the Elder King in high regard. Even though the netherworld race had sent their best combat forces, two Sage Kings and 13 ancient Sages, they still believed that the Elder King could protect the Taiyi Holy Land.
The netherworld race’s sudden arrival at the Taiyi Holy Land and their declaration that they would behead the human race Elder King had undoubtedly attracted many of the ten thousand ancient races.
This was especially so after they knew that the netherworld race’s arrival was most likely due to the ancient imperial clans’ secret support. Otherwise, why didn’t the netherworld race come when Sage King Ming Ye died?
After hearing the words of the people from the Taiyi Holy Land, the ancient races’ powerhouses all sneered, “The ignorant are truly fearless. So what if he has a Supreme Sage backing him? How can our ten thousand ancient races not have Supreme Sages? Furthermore, your human race has imperial clans, but don’t the ten thousand ancient races have ancient imperial clans as well? Now, nine great ancient imperial families have been revived, so it is only natural for the human race to be exterminated.”
With the two Sage Kings of the netherworld race present, the remaining members of the space race and the whale race, who had been annihilated by the Elder King earlier, also came forward. They turned to the thirteen ancient Sages of the netherworld race and pleaded, “Ancient Sages of the netherworld race, the human race’s Elder King of the Taiyi Holy Land is extremely brutal. He killed all of our people and seized our foundations and reserves. I beseech the ancient Sages of the netherworld race to seek justice for us. Our two races will be grateful for your kindness and sing praises of the netherworld race for all eternity.”
Hearing this, an ancient Sage from the netherworld race said, “Don’t worry. Even if we’re no longer in the primordial era, the ten thousand ancient races aren’t pushovers. I’ll definitely have the Elder King give you an explanation.”
“Thank you, ancient Sages of the netherworld race!”
“With the ancient Sages of the netherworld race present, the human race’s Elder King will definitely die here today to prove the might of the ancient races.”
“Hmph, how can a mere human race Elder King be compared to the ancient Sages of the netherworld race? today will be the day of his death. The thousands of fallen souls of the whale race will finally rest in peace.”
One of the only remaining Kings of the whale race even shouted at the Taiyi Holy Land with the netherworld race behind him, “Human Elder King, come out and accept your death. Do you want the ancient Sages of the netherworld race to flatten the Taiyi Holy Land?”
The people from the Taiyi Holy Land panicked at the sight of the aggressive netherworld race. They were puzzled. Why hadn’t the Elder King made a move yet?
“Netherworld race! You can’t lay a hand on this place!” Lord Dragon appeared and shouted coldly at the thirteen ancient Sages of the netherworld race.
“A dragon?” The netherworld race’s ancient Sages frowned. The dragon race was one of the most powerful races.
However, a cold smile quickly appeared on his face, “Dragon race junior, you can’t protect them just yet. Your dragon race’s seniors have yet to be born. I think you’d better know your place!”
Lord Dragon’s expression was dark, but the other party’s words made sense. Even if the dragon race was the top faction in the primordial era, the netherworld race was still one of the top 30 races of the ten thousand ancient races. A mere Bahuang realm dragon like him naturally couldn’t deter them.
“Human Elder King, we don’t have much patience. Come out and die!” A netherworld race ancient Sage bellowed as his Sagely might blotted out the sky. With a wave of his hand, a massive hand that covered a radius of a hundred thousand feet descended from the sky. The hand was wrapped in a mind-boggling black mist as it came crashing down toward the Taiyi Holy Land.
“To think the ancient Sage from the netherworld race dares to attack. Isn’t he afraid that the Holy Land’s Elder King will kill him?”
“This… So this is the might of an ancient Sage? It’s so terrifying!”
“Where is the Elder King?”
Many disciples of the Taiyi Holy Land panicked at the sight of such a terrifying attack. Under the powerful pressure, many of them didn’t even have the courage to run away.
Lu Xuan’s expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly shouted, “Quickly activate the sect’s protective array!”
The group of elders from the Taiyi Holy Land moved frenziedly, trying to activate the Sage King-level sect-protecting formation of the Taiyi Holy Land. However, under the Sagely might, they could not exert any combat power at all. They could not even activate the sect-protecting formation and could only roar unyieldingly.
When Ling Ran saw this, her entire body flickered with Zixia divine light. She used all kinds of peerless supernormal knowledge on the big hand that was falling from the sky. However, the gap between their cultivation realms was too big, and she was seriously injured by the backlash instead. Her pretty face turned pale, and she coughed up a large amount of blood.
“So this is the power of an ancient Sage?” Ling Ran gritted her teeth and immediately took out a jade token. Without any hesitation, she crushed the jade token.
In the great Emperor’s palace, Qin Chen was cultivating the various Emperor-grade supernormal knowledge next to the 33 thousand-foot steles.
Every time he cultivated an Emperor-grade supernormal knowledge, he would be able to see some images of the ancient great emperors. These great emperors seemed to be heading toward a certain place. Qin Chen was getting increasingly curious as to where these ancient emperors were headed such that they needed to form such great formations.
One must know that the power of ancient emperors was so great that they could crush the sun, moon, and stars with a single stretch of their hands. Even if they were to face any enemies, only a finger point would suffice. There was no need for their true bodies to head over.
At this moment, a divine sense entered his mind. Qin Chen’s expression turned solemn and he snorted coldly, “I didn’t think that these ancient race bastards would actually dare to come!”
After saying that, he disappeared into thin air. When he reappeared, he was already outside the great emperor’s palace.
Looking at the huge hand that was slowly descending from the sky, Qin Chen snorted in disdain, “To think a mere Sage dares to act so recklessly in front of the Taiyi Holy Land. What a joke!”
Great Desolate Heaven-imprisoning Finger!
A monstrous Sagely might suddenly burst forth. In the void, a terrifying giant finger that was hundreds of thousands of feet long rose from the ground and collided with the giant hand in the sky. The moment they came into contact, the giant hand shattered completely, scattering Sage patterns all over the sky.
It wasn’t over yet. The giant finger continued to rush toward the netherworld race’s ancient Sages in the sky. The terrifying power caused their expressions to change drastically. Bead-sized sweat popped up on their foreheads.
Qin Chen’s Great Desolate Heaven-imprisoning Finger had already reached the master stage. With his Sage King cultivation, this finger alone was enough to kill all the ancient Sages of the netherworld race, except for Sage Kings.
“Human Elder King, don’t be so arrogant!” With a shout, the entire sky was shrouded in black mist. A giant hand that was more than ten times more terrifying than the previous one appeared and fell straight down, colliding with Qin Chen’s finger.
“Bang!” There was an explosion, and the Sage patterns scattered in the sky. The space was cracked open, revealing a void bound by the chains of the great path.
The giant hand and the giant finger were destroyed at the same time, creating a circle of ripples that could kill a Bahuang Venerable.
One of the netherworld race’s Sage Kings had made his move!
