Chapter 1766 The True Body of the Bright Lord
Chapter 1766: The True Body of the Bright Lord Chapter 1766: The True Body of the Bright Lord Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Once the Ten Stellar Realm Competition ended, the Northern Army would have to bide their time for revenge. The rules prohibited any revenge outside the competition, and that was supposed to be the end of it.
But rules were made to be broken!
“So that’s their plan,” Braydon Neal said with a faint smile. It was a good plan, but after seeing Cole Colbie and the little fool’s injuries, he had no intention of letting Savoy Lanaspeze’s entire family escape unscathed. Braydon had already vowed that Savoy’s whole family would be wiped out, with no survivors in the direct line.
Braydon, unchanged from his former self, would not tolerate attacks on the sons of the Northern Army.
Everything was unfolding as Cora Yanagi had anticipated. With the Ten Stellar Realm Competition coming to a close, a peak expert descended from the sky, releasing an imposing presence that stunned everyone. His voice echoed throughout Zone 17, announcing, “The Ten Stellar Realm Competition that lasts for ten years ends today.
All competitors, crush your talismans and leave this place!” The competition was officially over.
“Cora, leave now,” Braydon said softly from the mountain peak.
“Do you still plan to go after the contestants?” Cora asked, a hint of worry in her eyes.
Braydon smiled gently, crushed the talisman, and vanished. He had other matters to attend to.
That day, all the sons of the Northern Army gathered. There was no need for further orders. Everyone knew what had to be done. Since the establishment of the Northern Army, they had followed a strict principle: anyone who had spilled the blood of their soldiers would be slaughtered, no matter who they were—even the eight lineage chiefs.
The competitions in the thousands of zones came to an end on this day.
Countless geniuses left the competition zone and headed back to their respective stellar realms, looking both tired and excited. Having completed the Ten Stellar Realm Competition, they were now poised to enter the Hundred Stellar Realm Competition!
The significance of the Ten Stellar Realm Competition and the Hundred Stellar Realm Competition was worlds apart. Participants in the Hundred Stellar Realm Competition were the top geniuses from any stellar realm, and their future potential was boundless. They could also choose to stay in the human headquarters to continue their cultivation.
Performing well in the Thousand Stellar Realm Competition could even lead to recruitment by the human race’s Heaven’s Favorite Mountain, where they could further their cultivation.
These many benefits were enough to lure many young people. But now, a group of people wasn’t concerned about the rankings at all.
Elites in black armor emerged from the thousands of competition zones. Dressed in black scarves, black armor, with cold swords at their waists and battle boots, they marched toward a specific location.
They were the elites of the elites from the Northern Army— the ten core legions, directly under Braydon’s command.
No orders were given, and no one was informed in advance. The lieutenant commanders led the way to Zone 17. Someone soon sensed something was amiss.
“The competition has ended.
Wait for the announcement of the rankings in your respective areas.
You are not allowed to move around!” An elderly cultivator scolded with a frown.
“Get lost!” Yuri Qualls, the third master of the Northern Army, responded with a murderous look. Yuri hadn’t changed a bit.
The old man was furious. He hadn’t expected Yuri to openly defy him. Even as the reincarnation of an old ancestor, he shouldn’t have been treated this way.
Colton Jansky, with his hands in his pockets and a lazy demeanor, remarked, “I remember you!” The peak elder looked over, puzzled.
“You are…?” “Of the five lords of the past, I’m the leader!” Colton replied indifferently.
“The Bright Lord!” The old man’s face turned pale, and he immediately bowed.
“You can’t afford to touch this karma!” Colton’s eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness.
“If you don’t get out within three breaths, I’ll send you into reincarnation!” Holding a three-foot-long blade, Yuri pointed it threateningly at the peak. In the past, he had been one of the five lords!
In his previous life, he was Lord McAvoy, known as the Soul Severing Sword. Now, Cole was nearly defeated, and the little fool was even more gravely injured. Braydon, his big brother, was already furious and seeking revenge. Anyone who got in their way was considered an enemy.
An old peak expert alone couldn’t stop the five lords. Did the eight lineage chiefs not know what was happening? Of course, they did. None of them dared to show their faces.
The old man had a bitter look on his face. “Please reconsider.
The race has rules.
After the competition, no one is allowed to seek revenge outside!” “Brother Bright, all representatives from the 10,008 stellar realms are gathered here.
Violating race rules openly will have severe consequences!” The Yin Yang Holy Master finally showed up.
Colton, with his hands in his pockets, glanced over and said indifferently, “The Demon Lord, the Kithara Lord, and the others have been in seclusion for years, avoiding race affairs.
Do you know why?” The Yin Yang Holy Master’s expression shifted. Laird Xenos’s eyes were icy.
“It’s not the time to settle old scores.
If anyone tries to interfere, we’ll ensure you face reincarnation in the future!” The human peak experts were alarmed. Even those close to the Northern Army would face such an outcome. What about the rest?
Tobey Lapras, brimming with killing intent, said angrily, “Luke is seriously injured, and Cole almost died.
This blood debt must be paid today.
Anyone who stands in my way will be killed!” Tobey was on the brink of exploding!
Yuri said coldly.
“My patience has been exhausted by you all!” “Big brother summoned the old subordinates.
Even though we haven’t shown our strength, that doesn’t mean we’re to be bullied.
The five lords are gone, but their spirits live on!” Colton’s eyes grew cold.
In his previous life, Colton was the leader of the five lords. Now, Cole had suffered a peak-level Soul-Destroying Nail and nearly perished. Every member of the Northern Army, from Commander Braydon to the ordinary soldiers, was determined to settle the blood debt. As a figure second only to the leader in his past life, Colton was ready to exact vengeance.
He would spark this chaos!
Colton, who had been lazily standing with his hands in his pockets, now pulled them out. A soul imprint appeared on his forehead. Closing his eyes, he spoke with a dignified tone, “The Cosmos Ancient Palace preserved my body from that lifetime.
I will summon you tonight.
Wake up!” “No!” The eight lineage chiefs’ expressions changed at his words.
Chadwick Neal, the Green Lotus Chief, the Foreman Chief, and the others all appeared to stop him. None of them had anticipated that the Bright Lord would have a true body hidden in the Cosmos Ancient Palace. Who could claim that Braydon and the others hadn’t left a backup plan?
The trump card left by those geniuses was meant solely to guard against beings outside the starry sky. Now, someone had provoked the five lords.
Colton opened his eyes and transformed into a pillar of light, proclaiming, “My true body has descended into the human world!” The declaration stunned everyone. All the peak experts felt their hearts race as the vast starry sky above them was suddenly torn apart. A massive rift in the starry sky revealed the scene outside it—an ancient, boundless palace.
That was the Cosmos Ancient Palace.
Legend had it that a new path was hidden within it. As the ancient palace materialized, a peerless figure with a jade-like face and a slender build, crowned with stars and wielding a blood-red sword, descended from the dome.
