CHAPTER 1706: CHAPTER 1706: GATHERING OF THE STRONG

This battle is destined to be fierce, staining the starry sky with blood.

Chu Yuan’s cold gaze swept over the Sovereigns of Hell, the overwhelming pressure erupting like thunder. His expression was fearless; no matter how many powerful entities arrived today, he would utterly crush them all.

Seventeen Hell Sovereigns, each representing a part of Hell’s original will.

At this moment, his Emperor’s will exploded, pushing the divine might across the world, instantly shaking and shattering countless troops of Hell’s Army.

"Divine Might!"

A massive serpent over ten thousand feet long, its body covered with dense black scales, exuding fierce energy. This was the sixth realm ruler known as the Serpent Sovereign, who once followed the Underworld.

Another figure fully encased in blood-black armor, whose appearance was unseen, only paired with piercing green eyes emitting a cold deathly glow, suffused with death energy!

This was the Underworld God General.

His true name is unknown, and no one knows his name. From the moment he appeared, he wore armor symbolizing death, but he was a fierce general under the Underworld, a sixth realm power.

In the early ages of the era, a great battle erupted to seize the fortunes of the early era, but the winner was the Creator of Divine Realm.

This truly is an interesting thing.

Back then, each realm fought for their Sovereign to become the strongest during the early era, and now, to maintain their status, they opted to unite together.

But as the Gate of Hell opened, a Gate of the Demon Realm also opened, with countless demon entities wailing terrifying demonic sound, rushing out from the demon realm gate.

These are the warriors of Myriad Demon Heaven.

"Divine Emperor!"

Du Gu God Demon’s voice cracked; he is both god and demon, unified as one arriving at this moment, possessing the cruelty of demons and the grandeur of gods.

Although the demon heads of Myriad Demon Heaven share similarities with Hell’s entities, possessing sinister demonic qi, evil beyond measure, there is a fundamental difference.

Hell represents decay, death, darkness, and other negative human emotions, the darkest of places.

Demons are much more complex, having deceitful demons, insidious demons, and also upright names; their demonic hearts are extremely complex.

Myriad Demon Heaven is also a powerful giant, but compared to Hell Heaven, they are less unified. Though Hell Heaven’s army is numerous, under the command of the Hell Sovereigns, it forms a true army.

Moreover, seventeen Hell Sovereigns have also arrived.

But Myriad Demon Heaven appears chaotic, disordered, with internal struggles aplenty.

The master of Myriad Demons is absent, leaving Du Gu God Demon as the strongest, but not all demon entities submit to him, nor will all demons participate in the battle.

Flame Demon God, for instance, is absent.

"Divine Emperor!"

A series of halos incessantly descended as armies blocking the heavens arrived, revealing a figure fully enveloped in five-colored halos thoroughly descending.

His power constructs a Five Elements World.

He is the Lord of Five Elements Heaven, his eyes piercing through layers of mist to see through Chu Yuan’s essence.

Beside him are five great generals, each representing a force of the five elements, each one an original five-fold heaven; together, they can fight epic beings of the sixth realm.

Five Elements Heaven ranks in the top ten giant heavens; their strength is not to be underestimated.

"Divine Might, I know your power is immense, but with mighty beings already descending, your war will inevitably fail, and your arrogant flame will be suppressed. Those who ignite wars end without good outcomes!"

The Lord of Five Elements Heaven’s divine might pressured forth like the sea.

Chu Yuan remained expressionless, his gaze fixed upon the Lord of Five Elements Heaven. Bang! An invisible soul hammer fiercely struck the soul of the Lord of Five Elements Heaven.

The Lord of Five Elements circulated his elements, but suddenly struck by the soul hammer, his entire being trembled heavily.

His soul instantly suffered damage, forcibly suppressing it, lest others notice, innerly musing, "What formidable, terrifying mana! This man is amazingly adept at the path of souls!"

Indeed.

Though his Five Elements Heaven ranked in the top ten and he was himself powerful, he paled in comparison to someone like Chu Yuan, an extremely formidable figure targeting the multiverse.

If Chu Yuan attained the sixth realm, slaying the Lord of Five Elements Heaven would be as simple as eating and drinking.

The top ten heavens have already gathered three - Myriad Demon Heaven, Hell Heaven, Five Elements Heaven.

The Second God Master represents Numerous Gods Heaven but has not arrived; it’s not for lack of desire, but for lack of ability.

They also resignedly acknowledge that if there were only one Divine Enthronement Great Emperor in the universe, such an alliance could bring all power to bear against the Divine Enthronement Great Emperor.

Also, had Chu Yuan’s Divine Might not emerged, numerous heavens would not have fallen so fast.

Indeed, Divine Might has attracted enormous firepower for the Divine Enthronement Great Emperor, though consequently becoming his great adversary.

Both emperors understand that they must engage in a peak confrontation, and for the final battle, they must first sweep away one by one the heavens, preventing the Second God Master and others from obstructing them.

The era reaches its peak, the strongest contention; anyone daring to obstruct them will be extinguished first.

The Divine Enthronement Great Emperor also considers a choice; he could arrive now to stop Divine Might, while Divine Might would necessarily retreat.

But if he seeks war again, he’ll suffer Divine Might’s counterattack.

This is exactly what the Second God Master hopes to see, maintaining this status.

Yet this is not what Chu Yuan and the Divine Enthronement Great Emperor wish to see.

A peak of an era may hover in the cosmic heights like a blazing sun, but it will descend with time’s flow; time is not infinite.

Missed, no one obtains it, and it disperses evenly across the universe, failing to birth the strongest.

Everyone wants to monopolize the era’s peak fortunes, not sharing with others, to achieve the ultimate power.

Whoever obtains this fortune becomes the strongest on the eternal path.

At this moment, Hell Heaven, Myriad Demon Heaven, and Five Elements Heaven’s armies unite; the power sweeps across the firmament, their momentum striking terror.

Chu Yuan remains unafraid, his fierce gaze sweeping over them.

"My army comes, pushing everything aside. Those who dare obstruct me will be my enemies. With the arrival of the era’s peak, the universe’s structure ought to change."

Chu Yuan’s words resounded tremendously; his will dominated time and space, instilling an invincible fear in all who heard him.

Change the universe!

Indeed, both Chu Yuan and the Divine Enthronement Great Emperor aim to change the universe. Though rivals, their goals are the same.

They do not wish to allow the structure of Thirty-Three Heavens to persist unchanged until the era ends.

The battle for supremacy on the eternal path requires even stronger leaders to guide; otherwise, when reached, they become ancient era’s treasures, supplementing eternal matter, prey navigating eternal tribulations.

An era must birth a peak figure to stabilize the grand scheme!

And Chu Yuan intends to be that pinnacle figure!
