Above the Tianyuan Sea…

Both Jiang Ming and Riyue Changfeng lifted their heads simultaneously. They opened up their divine eyes, which penetrated through the void to see the situation in the Heavenly Realm. However, immediately after the explosion of destructive energy, they could no longer see anything. It was too strong and distorted the sense.

Jiang Ming retrieved his sight and said, “The war has thoroughly started!”

“It’s a war of catastrophe!” Riyue Changfeng took up his cup of tea and swayed. “The result would be out soon.”

“I thought such a war would last a long time?” Jiang Ming asked with a smile.

“No! Whether it is the Abyss or the Heavenly Emperor, both are well prepared. Once they started the war, it’d be the most fierceful and intense war they could afford because they are going all in to finish it in one blow. If they were to fall into a seesaw battle, it would not be good for both parties!” Riyue Changfeng speculated, “As the Abyss is gambling, it’ll surely give a thunderous strike as fast as possible. The Heavenly Emperor too, is afraid of dragging time because he won’t want to give the Lord Buddha any chance to overthrow him.”

“It’s logical indeed!” Jiang Ming nodded. In fact, he too had the same thoughts.

While the two were enjoying their tea, they also were feeling the waves transmitted over through the void one after another. These were waves transmitted through Heavenly Realm and boundless torrents of void. This showed how terrific the war was.

As they lifted up their heads and evoked their divine eyes to watch again, they saw the spreading destructive storm, the falling of many ancient stars, so much so that even both the Extreme Yin Stellar and Sun Stellar were vibrating as though they were about to be destroyed.

This was too horrifying.

The next moment, both of them were surprised.

It was because the two saw a scene as the destructive power that rolled out and swept through the Heavenly Realm was gradually faded away.

The Heaven Court hidden in the boundless universe, was revealed. Numerous palaces were rapidly collapsing and scattering. Some scattered parts were directly absorbed by the void vortex while others fell into unknown places.

The Heaven Court which had ruled over the heavens for billions of years, the representative of the most powerful and the highest authority, had collapsed just like that.

Above the Heaven Court was a giant with his height up to a million feet. He seemed like carrying the sky above his head, stepping on the earth and he was surrounded by a boundless divine aura and chains of orders.

Behind his back were messy teams of heavenly armies.

“Heavenly Emperor?” Jiang Ming abruptly rose to his feet.

“Yes, he’s!” Riyue Changfeng nodded and then frowned, “The Heaven Court collapsed with just a blow? Difficult to resist? I don’t think so!”

“It indeed shouldn’t be!” Even Jiang Ming was in confusion too.

Based on his speculation, the Heavenly Emperor should be able to resist at least an exchange even if he couldn’t see through the Great Demon Venerate’s plot.

After all, the Heavenly Emperor had been managing the Heaven Court for so many millions of years. Hence, there should be numerous hidden experts, and great amounts of fortunes accumulated. Moreover, with the authority of heaven and earth in hands that the Heavenly Emperor could manipulate, how could he be dealt with easily?

Yet based on the situation that they saw, it clearly was that the Heavenly Emperor was taken aback by surprise. Even the Heaven Court was collapsing and many Heavenly Soldiers were killed.

Jiang Ming called out the Human Path Record and quickly flipped the page to the Great Heavenly Venerate’s.

fJiang Ming did not read it immediately but took a glance at Riyue Changfeng beside him, and checked out about him simultaneously instead.

He didn’t find anything odd, hence he was at ease.

Before he could check out any further, he heard the roaring sound of the Heavenly Emperor transferred to infinite realms, saying, “Sky Demon, how dare you sacrifice so many small and middle chiliocosms for power. This is indeed a heinous sin against conscience and god! You kill my servant Star Lord Taibai, Western Emperor Future Buddha, Eastern Emperor Dragon Venerate, Southern Emperor Taishang Venerable Immortal and more than half of my heavenly armies. You collapse the Heaven Court, destroy orders and let infinite realms into chaos.”

“Sky Demon, you’ll definitely be punished by heaven!”

“My Heaven Court controls the stars, runs the warp and woof, rules the heavens, administers laws and orders so that heavens and infinite realms may operate in order under all laws, and all spirits may enjoy stability and order.”

“I even lay the Great Astral Formation to ensure the peace of infinite realms.”

“But you, Sky Demon, the Great Demon Venerate, the ruler of the Abyss, actually leads your armies to invade so many worlds. How many spirits have you massacred and how many worlds have you destroyed so that you can collect enough blood and souls for your demonic pills? This are utterly heartless acts!”

“Sky Demon, these numerous worlds you sacrificed, you transformed into energy through the formation array. And the energy erupted not only destroyed the Great Astral Formation, but also collapsed the Heaven Court. You even wanted the Heavenly Realm to be destroyed so that your Abyss will be the only one ruler, chaos be the order, slaughter a norm, and all spirits beyond redemption.”

“Sky Demon, I’m willing to do whatever it takes today so that you’ll be dead and your Abyss thoroughly destroyed!”

“To all cultivators in infinite realms, listen!”

“This ordeal induced by the demons is a matter of everyone’s safety, a matter of your life and death, and even a matter of heavenly justice. Therefore, I, the Heavenly Emperor, decree that the slaying of demons by all races and spirits is a great merit!”

“The decree would remain until demons have gone extinct!”

“I’ll add this demon slaying order into the orders of heaven and earth. In this way, you’ll receive luck, blessing and favor by slaughtering demons!”

The Heavenly Emperor evoked supreme power to summon laws and orders to turn the Imperial Order into a statute and strike it into the rules of heaven and earth.

“Tai Yuan, how dare you!” The Great Demon Venerate roaring voice was heard from the depth of time and space.

Behind him were four Demon Venerates following after. Among them was the Black-Hearted Old Demon.

The other three were rather unfamiliar but some older experts recognized them as the ancestor beings in the Abyss almost in an instant.

Because they had not shown up for billions of years, they were thought to have gone to Chaos.

Their sudden reappearance obviously proved the Abyss’s intention in making the three the Abyss’s secret supporters.

Now that the final war would determine the future of the Abyss, and even more so about themselves, they had to step out.

As for the Great Demon Concubine? The Great Demon Venerate had no idea about her whereabouts.

The Great Demon Venerate held the Demon Saber in his hand while black mists ejected out from his head diffused out, filling an area.

The awe-inspiring power made even the heaven and earth tremble.

What was more terrifying was that he was trampling dozens of virtual worlds. Each and every one of them was burning with extreme intensity, and transformed into destructive power.

“Tai Yuan, how dare you decree such a demon slaying order! Damn it!” The Great Demon Venerate was unable to keep his calmness.

He knew the meaning of such an Imperial Order. It meant that demons would be disgusted by heaven and earth and slaughtered by all beings and spirits.

Hence, even if the Abyss were to win the war, they would have endless troubles and the Abyss would be antagonized.

“Damn it?” The Great Heavenly Venerate had an even grimmer expression, “You shouldn’t have gone against heaven, and you should not have sent troops to thousands of worlds and sacrificed many of them. Do you know how many billions of innocent people have died under your selfish act? This is billions of living things, how could you do it! I shall curse you in the name of the Heavenly Emperor that you will never ever sanctify Dao!”

In the void, thunder seemed to have roared as the power of fate befell on the Great Demon Venerate. His face darkened again, and he had gone wild utterly, “Tian Yuan, how dare you curse me? Well, well, well, I’ll behead you, and destroy your Heaven Court today. The curse would dissipate along with you losing your authority, and the highest position!”

“Returning infinite realms into ruins, and entombing heavens!”

As the Great Demon Venerate roared, the virtual worlds beneath his feet suddenly exploded, and turned into boundless torrents rushing through the voids and towards the Heaven Court, submerging its remnants.

The many worlds he had sacrificed, had scattered, leaving only some pieces behind that were taken away by endless void.

As for the living things in them? Only the curse of unwillingness were left.

“Entombing heaven? What an unblushing exaggeration!” The Great Heavenly Venerate snorted, and as he wielded the Heavenly Emperor Sword in his hand, numerous Imperial Orders appeared before him. All had yellowish light emitted, which evoked the power of authority and orders, and the power of Heaven Court’s support, bursting forth millions and billions of dazzling lights.

Boom.

Along with the explosion of lights, the entire Heavenly Realm had been distorted, blocking the view of Jiang Ming and the rest.

“Is it resistable?” Jiang Ming muttered.

“Difficult, very difficult!” Riyue Changfeng shook his head, “The Great Demon Venerate manipulated the power of the great formation to burn many worlds into ashes and transform the energy released into the ultimate blow. The blow’s power was beyond imagination. The Heavenly Emperor is after all, not a saint, hence his ability to evoke the authority of heaven and earth is limited. But…”

“But what?”

“Something is wrong, not only the Heavenly Emperor, but also the Heaven Court!”

“What do you mean?”

“The Heaven Court here, other than having the Great Heavenly Venerate sitting in the middle of heaven, overlooking all directions, there are four royal positions to assist the control of Heaven Court! Other than the Northern Emperor who died earlier, the other three are in the Heaven Court. Yet they are all killed in the defending just now. Moreover, wasn’t the Star Lord Taibai committing suicide by directly confronting the destructive light pillar of the Great Demon Venerate? He was as though trying to protect the dignity of the Heaven Court and the Heavenly Emperor, but did he not see that the light pillar was terrific? And more than half of the legions died!”

“When you say that, it really doesn’t sound right!” Jiang Ming thought. Even the Great Demon Venerate did not reveal his team of 12 old venerates.

He then shifted his focus on the Human Path Record. The information stated on it made him shudder.
