Calamity of Tomorrow
Chapter 989 - 987: Outbreak of War
Zhou Bai hurriedly withdrew the influence of his Fool's abilities, and only then did Christina regain some of her wits. She asked blankly, "Zhou Bai, what's happening to me?"
"Why do you believe what the Supreme Heavenly Venerate and I said?" Zhou Bai reminded, "I'm tricking him into believing that I've bought into the information he believes I believe. He's tricking me into thinking he buys into what I believe. From now on, don't believe a single word between the two of us."
Christina looked bewildered and finally uttered, "…Damn, that's filthy."
Meanwhile, as Zhou Bai and the Supreme Heavenly Venerate conversed, another ten seconds passed, and the range of the Calamity had expanded from the previous 9 meters to 15 meters.
Suddenly, Zhou Bai noticed that his laziness points had increased by 1.5 million.
He immediately reacted, "The Supreme Heavenly Venerate... didn't pass the judgment? Got caught by my Greed Calamity? Sold something?"
With the sudden increase in laziness points, Zhou Bai looked at the panel of the auxiliary cultivation system.
Zhou Bai's laziness points at this moment: 30.4 million
A glint of light flashed in Zhou Bai's eyes, and he thought to himself, "Perfect, just enough to activate the next star point."
At this moment, Zhou Bai felt the attack in the Luotian Realm intensify tenfold, with the damage rate of the mechanical familiars skyrocketing.
...
Just as Zhou Bai and the Supreme Heavenly Venerate were fiercely confronting each other, the wedding continued.
Inside the grand hall, Ming Yue and Bei Yutian were performing the ancient wedding rituals.
The immortals stood divided on both sides, watching Ming Yue and Bei Yutian complete each of their grand wedding ceremonies.
The immortals were on edge guarding against the gods, while the four main gods appeared completely at ease, seeming to have no intention of stopping the wedding.
The mortals were unaware of the turbulent undercurrents between the immortals and gods, happily enjoying the rare celebration.
But under such circumstances, the voice of the Supreme Heavenly Venerate suddenly entered the ears of the attending immortals: "Act immediately! Exterminate all the main gods."
The originally calm and serene voice of the Supreme Heavenly Venerate now carried a hint of urgency.
The immortals were all slightly taken aback, and Tu Guishen said, "Heavenly Venerate, even though the four main gods are demonic impostors, the power they've accumulated over the years is considerable. If we start a war, both sides will suffer heavy casualties.
Since they haven't stopped the wedding, why should we..."
Tu Guishen's words echoed the thoughts of many present immortals: as long as the wedding is completed, enabling Ming Yue and Bei Yutian to give birth to a new generation of Spiritual People, time would be on their side, and the longer it drags on, the stronger they become.
But if they act now, even immortals of the Heavenly Monarch level would be at risk of death.
Yet the Supreme Heavenly Venerate ignored Tu Guishen's words and commanded again, "Act."
At the same time, a main god suddenly appeared from outside the hall and flashed aggressively in front of the Wu Wei Immortal, none other than the Haoran Heavenly Monarch, Li Zhengdao.
Li Zhengdao's Primordial Spirit power surged wildly, and as the Heavenly Cloud Saint Technique operated, hundreds of strands of power gathered in a small space, exploding between the brows of the Wu Wei Immortal.
The Wu Wei Immortal, just recently heavily injured by Zhou Bai, had a significant amount of Deformation Power within him, with a chaotic sea of consciousness and a weak state.
Suddenly attacked by Li Zhengdao, he only managed to deploy a Protective Gang Qi before feeling it shatter instantly, his head bursting in pain, face covered with blood.
Sensing that Li Zhengdao severely injured the Wu Wei Immortal with one strike, Tianyangzi shot skyward, channeling streams of Qingwei Xuandu True Fire toward the Haoran Heavenly Monarch.
Tianyangzi shouted in rage, "Li Zhengdao!"
Li Zhengdao yelled, "Xiang Tiandi! Si Yi! What are you waiting for? If you don't act, it will be too late!"
The relationship between immortals and gods was already extremely tense, nearly on the verge of breaking out.
As the wedding progressed, the atmosphere among the four main gods grew more oppressive, while the immortals, due to the orders of the Supreme Heavenly Venerate, felt tense, hesitating whether to act.
This instant when Li Zhengdao and Tianyangzi engaged each other brought the entire wedding scene to a boiling point.
Over two hundred immortals and gods instantly acted, and with an invisible Qi Force explosion inside the grand hall, the entire hall turned into ruins.
The next moment, all the immortals and gods vanished in unison, entering the Luotian Realm for battle.
In the Material World, only the clashes and sparkles of swords and lightning could be seen.
Over two hundred immortals and gods acting in unison rapidly expanded the battlefield, and in the blink of an eye, the sky over the entire Central City was ablaze with the flames of war.
Under the protection of the Supreme Heavenly Venerate, Bei Yutian and Ming Yue remained unscathed. Bei Yutian looked up at the battlefield above and chuckled, "Ming Yue, do you see? They're all fighting for us."
At this moment, Ming Yue seemed like a puppet, nodding slightly in response.
The battlefield in the sky reached its most intense state from the start. This time, both the four main gods and the immortals were fully prepared, far surpassing the previous battle before Time Reverse, with much greater backup and weapons ready for use.
All immortals and gods unleashed their killing moves about from the outset, thunder and firestorms ravaging Yun Kong, with power sufficient to destroy over a dozen Central Cities manifesting explosively within small spaces due to the spatial warping by the immortals, appearing much weaker but with ten times to a hundred times the might.
Xiang Tiandi said, "Nan Dou! Use the Chaos Bell!"
In the sky, a bronze bell emerged, revolving, with the sun, moon, stars, earth, water, fire, and wind revolving around its surface.
With the appearance of the Chaos Bell, all the main gods simultaneously traversed through space, standing under the bell's coverage.
As the main gods one by one left the Luotian Realm and returned to the Material World, over a hundred daoist arts immediately bombarded them, various celestial lights, and divine energies blasting the sky, striking toward the main gods with the might of Heaven and Earth Creation.
But in the next moment, the Chaos Bell slightly trembled, and with its resonant bell sound, the world shifted, humanity lost color, and under the grand sound, various daoist arts were directly frozen in mid-air, transforming into streams of chaotic energy absorbed into the bronze bell.
Dao An Immortal exclaimed, "The Chaos Bell? They've repaired the Chaos Bell?"
Tu Guishen said, "This is a supreme treasure of heaven, an irreplaceable Immortal Artifact…"
As many immortals marveled, a purple light flashed, and a flying sword descended slowly from the sky.
Following it, the voice of the Supreme Heavenly Venerate came, "Tianyangzi, use this Execution Sword to break the Chaos Bell."
Not only the immortals were shocked, but even the main gods were surprised, not expecting the Supreme Heavenly Venerate to have secretly restored the Execution Sword.
Xiang Tiandi shouted, "Do not be distracted, the Emperor of Gods re-measured the Heavenly Dao to create the Tai Hao Jiu Chen Formula, this Execution Sword has only been restored a fraction of its former glory."
