Chapter 1047 - 954: The Tyrant Passes Through
Sacrificial Temple.
“In the Grey Mist Sea, a great figure is passing through the border.”
Elder Grandson Changqing began to speak, saying,
“The Ban Explorers have requested our cooperation to open the Wall of Corpses, allowing that great figure to pass.”
Upon hearing this, the other Ultimate Beings all wore expressions of joy.
“That’s the best!”
“The Grey Mist Sea is finally taking action. If this continues, it won’t be long before the Nine Laws’ Ultimate Practitioners emerge one after another in the world.”
Elder Grandson Changqing then suddenly turned to Wu Jiandao, saying,
“Brother Wu, you still have people you can use at the border, can I trouble you with this?”
The last time someone from the Grey Mist Sea passed through the border, it was the Ji Family and the Martial Clan who made the effort.
Since Ji Wulu was “confirmed” as an internal spy, Elder Grandson Changqing, under the guise of eliminating traitors, informed the Great Wall’s side to clear out all Ji Clan members within the Great Wall.
Now, only the Martial Clan members were left.
Wu Jiandao nodded and said,
“Good!”
After arranging everything, everyone immediately left.
“Ning Brother,”
Elder Grandson Changqing called out to Ning Tianji.
“What’s the matter, Elder Brother Changqing?” Ning Tianji inquired.
Elder Grandson Changqing spoke slowly,
“I suspect there is still a spy among us.”
Upon hearing this, Ning Tianji was immediately startled and said, “Who else?!”
Elder Grandson Changqing continued,
“Have you forgotten? The last time someone from the Grey Mist Sea came, Ji Wulu actively requested that the Ji Clan and the Martial Clan go together to greet them.”
“If Ji Wulu is a spy, then why would he involve the Martial Clan?”
“There’s only one possibility…”
A look of surprise and doubt flashed across Ning Tianji’s face as he said,
“You mean Wu Jiandao also…”
Elder Grandson Changqing said,
“It still needs confirmation!”
“This time, by having him greet the strong entity from the Grey Mist Sea, I aim to test him.”
“If everything goes smoothly, then fine, but if something goes wrong… I’m afraid my suspicion will be confirmed.”
Ning Tianji nodded gravely and said,
“Good, rest assured, Elder Brother Changqing. If he truly is a spy, I will take his life!”
…
After Ning Tianji left,
Elder Grandson Changqing sent out a secret message.
“A great figure will be passing through the Grey Mist Sea, and the Martial Clan’s people planted at the border will open the Great Wall for this purpose.”
“Lure and kill them.”
This message was sent towards the Frontier Bone Great Wall!
…
Shortly thereafter,
atop the Frontier Bone Great Wall.
General Chi Tiangang gazed toward the Heavenly Abyss.
Suddenly, he looked down and took out a Secret Talisman.
After reading the message from the talisman… a hint of chill flashed through his eyes.
“Issue the command to rotate the patrolling generals, this time… it is Wu Fengbei of the Martial Clan’s turn to patrol the Wall.”
He spoke coldly and dispassionately.
…
Elsewhere, atop a signal tower.
Wu Fengbei received a message from his clan.
“They want to open a section of the Great Wall…”
His complexion turned uneasy; this was extremely difficult!
It required the right timing.
“Sir!”
At this moment, a guard walked in and said,
“The General has ordered your turn to inspect the Great Wall!”
Upon hearing this, Wu Fengbei was overjoyed!
…
In the Grey Mist Sea.
Before the Heavenly Abyss, countless armies were arrayed in preparation for battle.
All the beings had faces writ with solemnity.
Since learning a few days ago that the ten great overlords had all died in the True Ancestor World, no one dared to take it lightly anymore.
They were even on the defensive, fearing that someone from the True Ancestor World might come charging over.
After all, the deaths of ten overlord-level entities were enough to dispel their arrogance and hubris!
Today, within the Grey Mist Sea, a terrifying grey pathway imprint formed a bridge of light that extended and reached directly in front of the Heavenly Abyss.
A powerful individual was on the move!
“The Alliance Hierarch has arrived in person!”
Everyone was shocked.
“I heard that the Alliance Hierarch himself is going to the True Ancestor World.”
“The Alliance Hierarch is summoned by the True Ancestors… His visit definitely represents the will of the True Ancestors, and this realm must perish!”
“The Alliance Hierarch is invincible!”
Many people shouted in unison.
And the Temporal Hall Master had already descended from the Dao light bridge and appeared in front of the Heavenly Abyss.
“Below the True Ancestor, all may pass.”
Looking ahead at the bridge within the Heavenly Abyss, the Temporal Hall Master’s expression remained indifferent, saying,
“The bridge formed from the bones of the Ten Honored and Two Vicious Ones… Haha, today, I shall personally tread upon it!”
He waved his hand, and immediately behind him followed eight Overlord-level beings.
The Hegemon of the Three-winged Ferocious Deer Clan, Lu Ba.
The Hegemon of the Grey Hou Clan, Hou Wanshan.
…
They were all elites!
“Gui Shou, you shall command the army here and wait. Once my order is given, lead the troops into the True Ancestor World!”
The Temporal Hall Master looked at an old turtle from the Negative Chess Luo Turtle Clan and spoke lightly.
This old turtle was the eldest Hegemon from the Negative Chess Luo Turtle Clan, with incredibly strong prowess.
On this occasion, his three strongest descendants had died in the True Ancestor World, and this had filled him with immense fury, prompting him to emerge from seclusion; he also brought along all the formidable members from the Wan Xinghai, accumulating five million strong!
Now, the Temporal Hall Master handed the entire Grey Mist Sea army to Gui Shou to command.
“By the Alliance Hierarch’s order!”
Gui Shou immediately responded.
…
Once everything was arranged, the Temporal Hall Master, followed by the eight Overlords, stepped onto the bridge in the Heavenly Abyss formed from the bodies of the Ten Honored.
…
True Ancestor World.
Outside the Northern Border, beyond the Wall of Corpses.
Outside the Heavenly Abyss, a squad of guards guarded day and night.
The leader, wielding a long Sword in his hands, was one of the Chen Family’s Eighteen Swords, Chen Feng.
“The Celestial Blade Bridge of the Heavenly Abyss can definitely accommodate the crossing of Ultimate Beings now…”
Chen Feng muttered, saying,
“Is the Grey Mist Sea not coming yet?”
He gripped the sword in his hand, having waited for far too long.
“Hm?”
Suddenly, he sensed something and looked up.
He saw a line of people slowly walking across the Celestial Blade Bridge.
“Beings are crossing over in the Heavenly Abyss!”
Chen Feng immediately called out, instantly drawing his Sword and roaring,
“Blow the horn!”
With his Sword, he stirred up gusts of wind and thunder, slashing at the beings in the Heavenly Abyss.
At the same time, his guards hurried to sound the horn.
But, on the Celestial Blade Bridge, the person in the lead raised a hand.
“No…”
Chen Feng’s vision darkened, and he fell to the ground.
The squadron of guards by his side also lost consciousness one after another.
On the Celestial Blade Bridge, nine people in total had already set foot on the land of the True Ancestor World.
Feeling the aura of this realm, their expressions were filled with some confusion.
“It seems quite weak… hardly any strong ones.”
Lu Ba looked at the squadron of guards that had fallen to the ground.
“According to the messages received, the cultivators of this realm… the strongest ones are merely Ascendants, akin to ants… inherently not very powerful.”
Hou Wanshan said,
“What’s frightening isn’t the creatures of this realm, but that woman at The End of Myriad Paths!”
He added with some concern,
“Alliance Hierarch, up ahead should be the Wall of Corpses left by The End of Myriad Paths… If we get too close, it might cause changes…”
Everyone was somewhat anxious.
Now, they were very wary of anything left by The End of Myriad Paths.
Lu Ba, however, said,
“Don’t worry. According to the messages returned by the Ban Explorers, the Sacrificial Temple of this world has already made arrangements for us.”
“We’ll pass through the ‘Heaven-Suppressing Gate’ at the very edge of the Great Wall. There, it has already been opened!”
Upon hearing this, everyone was reassured.
For them, the only threat was the Wall of Corpses.
As for the guards of the Great Wall…
They simply did not take them seriously.
Immediately, they went into a stealth mode, approaching the Wall of Corpses.
Upon seeing the Wall of Corpses, everyone was horrified.
“This Wall of Corpses… it’s almost entirely constructed from the bones of Overlord-level beings!”
Lu Ba was stunned.
“So many primordial overlords perished at the hands of The End of Myriad Paths…”
“Even the presence of the True Ancestor… Did she slaughter even a True Ancestor?”
Everyone was shocked.
Meanwhile, as they got closer to the Wall of Corpses, they inexplicably felt a sense of tension and threat.
As if they were nearing death itself!
Many Overlords broke out in cold sweat, even thinking of retreating.
This was the natural oppressive power of the Wall, emanating from the bones themselves.
Because their predecessors, countless most powerful beings, had died here, and the aura of death instinctively spurred fear in them.
But since the Temporal Hall Master did not speak, they could only follow, their resolve steeled.
Eventually, they arrived in front of the Wall of Corpses.
They saw that indeed, a large gate of the Wall of Corpses had opened!
It was the Heaven-Suppressing Gate!
They quickly entered through the gate.
“Let us hurry past, facing this Wall is truly fearsome…”
An Overlord could not help but speak out, the pressure of the Wall being too strong for them.
But as soon as the words were spoken,
Within the Wall of Corpses, a terrifying Secret Force began to circulate, forming a Celestial Blade that ferociously slashed down!
“No!”
“What’s happening?”
Everyone was horrified.
The Temporal Hall Master, however, suddenly waved his hand, and instantly four Overlords were pushed forward to face the deadly Celestial Blade.
Boom!
In front of the Wall of Corpses, four clouds of grey mist exploded, sending shockwaves through the air.
This alarmed the entire Wall of Corpses!
“What is that?!”
“It’s a fearsome entity from the Grey Mist Sea, trying to stealthily cross over, slain by the Wall’s own power!”
“Turned into blood mist, yet still it strikes fear in the heart… Is this… a being that surpasses even the Ascendants?”
Everyone felt shaken.
And in the distance, atop a beacon tower, Chi Tiangang gazed toward the Heaven-Suppressing Gate, his eyes filled with gravity, saying:
“Overlord-level…”
“Has the Grey Mist Sea finally lost patience?”
Behind him, Wu Fengbei had already been bound by two Swordsmen; upon witnessing this scene, he couldn’t help but tremble.
It was over…
All along, he had been under the watchful eye of the General!
The General had used him to lure the strong from the Grey Mist Sea, then trapped and killed them…
He had utterly failed!
“General… mercy, mercy please… This humble one admits his fault, please give this humble one a chance to live!”
He fell to his knees, weeping and begging for mercy.
However, Chi Tiangang turned his head and said:
“No, you made no mistake. You have done a great service.”
He suddenly cracked a slight smile, saying:
“From this day forth, you’re the Great Commander of the Wall.”
Great Commander, a rank just below that of the General!
On hearing this, Wu Fengbei was completely dumbfounded… What did this mean?
“Take him away, don’t kill him for now.”
Chi Tiangang had already waved his hand.
Wu Fengbei was promptly taken down.
Afterward, Chi Tiangang continued to give orders:
“Send a message to the Nine Great Ancient Clans. Hmm, tell them that Wu Fengbei has slain several Overlords from the Grey Mist Sea. His merits are immense, and he is now appointed the Great Commander of the Wall.”
As he spoke, a hint of a smile emerged in his eyes. He took out a Secret Talisman and muttered:
“Elder Grandson, the rear… I leave it to you.”
…
At this moment.
Behind the Wall, on a vast expanse of desolate land.
Suddenly, five figures appeared out of the void.
It was the Temporal Hall Master himself, along with Lu Ba, Hou Wanshan, and three other Overlords.
They had… somehow survived!
