Perhaps it was because he had met Junior Deity of Lifespan more and more often;

Wu Wang was deep behind enemy lines at the moment, and could be crushed by the innate gods at any time;

But when facing Junior Deity of Lifespan again, there was surprisingly little tension in his heart. He was thinking about her purpose in coming, how to protect himself, and whether he would be implicated in this matter.

In an instant, Wu Wang had settled his mind and turned to look at the trembling Three Delicacies Taoist...

There was a big problem!

Apart from himself, the old Taoist in the Ascending to Immortality Realm actually recognized Junior Deity of Lifespan!

Considering everything that had happened before, Wu Wang couldn't believe that this old Taoist was an ordinary cultivator... even if he were beaten to death, he wouldn't believe it!

But now was not the time to ponder the Three Delicacies Taoist.

Wu Wang suppressed his doubts and focused on the current situation.

Just look at Junior Deity of Lifespan.

With white clouds as sleeves and the moon as her countenance, her fair skin was as smooth as jade.

Her delicate feet were not to be touched, and there was a grace between her eyebrows.

She stepped forward from the divine light, wearing wooden clogs that resembled high heels. Her crystal-clear toes seemed to be surrounded by a soft white light, and when she took a step forward, the ground would ripple lightly.

Wu Wang only took a few glances before quickly averting his gaze to avoid making eye contact with Junior Deity of Lifespan and revealing any flaws.

Wu Wang was quite confident in disguising his 'transformation aura', after all, it was a plaything concocted by Senior Shen Nong by accident, and it had been refined for many years. It was not an exaggeration to call it a top-quality product of the Great Wasteland.

Sure enough, Junior Deity of Lifespan didn't even look at Wu Wang, just gazing at the young princess of the Feather Clan.

The latter's face turned pale, and her slender legs trembled uncontrollably, and she immediately knelt down.

"Please spare my people, it was my own decision to come here!"

Junior Deity of Lifespan lightly opened her lips and said calmly, "Get up, I just can't bear to see your Feather Clan get involved in this dispute."

The young princess seemed to have misunderstood, looking up at Junior Deity of Lifespan, and then quickly knelt down again.

"Your Excellency, it is our honor to serve the Heavenly Palace!"

"Is it?"

Junior Deity of Lifespan nodded slightly, taking a step forward and walking past the young female general, reaching the desk.

There was no pressure around her, and her fingers swept over the jade talismans and papers on the old man's desk, causing them to float in front of her in succession.

The female general of the Feather Clan clenched her fists and slowly bowed down.

The elite guards of the Feather Clan also knelt down one by one, placing their weapons on the ground.

Junior Deity of Lifespan lightly tapped her finger, and the jade talismans and papers fell back to their original place.

The old man, Snow Eagle, trembled slightly, but still stood straight, sweating profusely and trembling all over.

Wu Wang:...

To be honest, upon close observation, Junior Deity of Lifespan's eyelashes were very long.

Her skin was even better than fair, without any greasy texture, more like a spirit jade formed from water.

Junior Deity of Lifespan said, "Were you able to contact Master Wuwang?"

Snow Eagle immediately shook his head, feeling like he had shown weakness, and said, "I don't know who Master Wuwang is, I don't know him."

The Three Delicacies Taoist trembled and said, "We are just here to make a living, absolutely not working for the Human Realm."

"You couldn't contact him?"

But Junior Deity of Lifespan completely ignored him, murmuring, not looking at the two Taoists in front of her, and her gaze passed over Wu Wang's face.

Wu Wang's Adam's apple trembled slightly, his hands slightly open, leaning against the wall behind him, as if he wanted to merge into the wall.

Junior Deity of Lifespan's gaze naturally passed over him, without stopping at all.

She said, "Get up and talk."

The young princess of the Feather Clan trembled all over, "Your Excellency, we..."

"Lin Qi was brought here by me, but the situation here is beyond my control," Junior Deity of Lifespan said slowly, "My elder brother has decided to destroy all the cultivators in the Human Realm here, and it has indeed implicated you."

The young princess said, "All of this is our blessing."

"Blessing? Don't you need my help?"

Junior Deity of Lifespan nodded slightly, and a faint divine light shone in front of her, as if she were walking into a painting.

The young princess's eyes flickered constantly, and soon she shouted, "Your Excellency! Please help us!"

Junior Deity of Lifespan stopped, turned slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

On the side, Wu Wang kept frowning.

Why did it feel like this girl, uh, this powerful deity of the Heavenly Palace, was a bit immature in character?

It was like Deputy Deity of Lifespan, who was headstrong and ruthless, while Junior Deity of Lifespan seemed to be the opposite, with a compassionate heart and some closeness to living beings.

There was also another point that was the opposite.

Wu Wang couldn't help but think of the situation when he faced the incarnation of Junior Deity of Lifespan.

The other party's eyes, the swift action, and the possibility of making the most profit in a very short time—snatching Lin Qi away.

On the other hand, Deputy Deity of Lifespan would be indecisive at critical moments, but this Junior Deity of Lifespan was quite decisive at critical moments.Thinking about this, Junior Deity of Lifespan spoke up:

"I can give you three days to move the elderly, weak, women, and children of the Feather Tribe who are not good at fighting away from here.

By the way, you can also mobilize a group of guards to escort them away.

I will command Poverty-stricken to spread the message that it secretly controls the royal family of the Feather Tribe, so you will not incur retaliation from the Human Realm afterwards.

How about it?"

The little princess was stunned for a moment, looking up at the goddess in front of her with a somewhat bewildered look in her eyes.

"Why... why would you help us..."

After saying this, she immediately realized and bowed repeatedly to express her gratitude.

Junior Deity of Lifespan said, "I help you because I control the way of reproduction of living beings and cannot bear to see them suffer; if living beings thrive, my path will be strong, and you don't need to thank me."

Wu Wang smiled secretly. This statement seemed to be deliberately explaining something.

It's just a little soft-hearted, and a soft-hearted goddess is cute, so why explain so much.

If a big shot with this kind of personality appears on our side, it would definitely be a disaster.

But if a big shot with this kind of mentality appears in the opposing force, it would definitely be... letting them off the hook and helping the wounded.

"Go."

The light in front of Junior Deity of Lifespan became more intense, and she walked slowly inside, her figure disappearing from the air.

The room fell silent for a moment, with the sound of a pin dropping and the sound of breathing being extremely weak.

It was not known who sighed first, and the little princess slowly lay down, the thin blue wings on her back turning into a blue light and retracting, her whole body covered in sweat.

The female general beside her quickly stepped forward and helped her to a nearby chair.

"Is this... the powerful god of the Heavenly Palace?"

The old man Snow Eagle's voice trembled. Although he wanted to say "just so-so," his Dao Heart prevented him from taking such a risky action.

Is this fear?

It's just following the Dao Heart to ensure that one's own thoughts flow freely.

The Three Delicacies Taoist let out a long sigh and murmured, "The differences in the temperament of this pair of siblings are becoming more and more apparent. Could it be that the Great Dao of living beings is really going to merge?"

"Elder."

Wu Wang reminded him in a low voice, "Don't say what's on your mind."

"Huh?" The Three Delicacies Taoist startled.

Wu Wang's expression was extremely complicated as she whispered, "Let's talk about it later?"

"Ahaha," the Three Delicacies Taoist laughed dryly a few times, then suddenly rolled his eyes and fell backward, muttering, "Such a strong pressure, this Daoist's soul is damaged, I can't hold on."

The old man Snow Eagle immediately reached out to support him, and black lines invaded Wu Wang's forehead, with the corners of her mouth twitching continuously.

...

The little princess of the Feather Tribe was carried away by someone.

The old man Snow Eagle also handed a few pills to the female general, who repeatedly thanked him, her eyes full of worry, and led the people back to the Feather Tribe's territory above the Cloud City in a hurry.

Junior Deity of Lifespan did not break her promise. In just two days, there was a lot of commotion in the city.

First, a divine spirit descended on the Feather Tribe's territory, with divine light flashing inside.

Then, the divine spirit summoned the Evil God Hissing Snake and the Evil God Kui Niu, and the two gods transformed into their true forms. Hissing Snake surrounded the Feather Tribe's territory, while Kui Niu stood on one leg and stepped on nothing, holding the Feather Tribe's territory in place and pulling it towards the east from mid-air.

The entire scene was quite shocking.

After that, half of the elite of the Feather Tribe were withdrawn to protect their own territory, and the remaining half stayed to guard the Cloud City.

A stone stirred up a thousand layers of waves.

The magnificent city in the clouds was filled with rumors and unease.

Most of the tribes and clans that had come to curry favor with the Heavenly Palace had already made up their minds to leave.

At this time, after Wu Wang carefully considered it, he secretly contacted Feng Yezi and had the Four Seas Pavilion start spreading the message.

"The Cloud City is about to erupt in a major battle, and the human race should not stay for long."

The people of the human race in the city began to evacuate in large numbers, and the living beings of the various tribes and clans could no longer bear it; the wave of evacuations surged higher and higher, and the living beings who had originally thought that there would be no major battle in the future were also influenced by the surrounding environment and, after discussing with their friends, left the Cloud City on their own.

In just two days, the once bustling Cloud City had become almost deserted.

Throughout the process, there was no response from the side of the Heavenly Palace, as Junior Deity of Lifespan had exerted pressure on the Heavenly Palace.

The three clear lines arranged by Wu Wang also stopped their advance.

- On the level of righteousness and justice, the Human Realm absolutely cannot lose to the Heavenly Palace.

Wu Wang didn't have much official business to attend to these two days, but he wasn't idle either.

He had been keeping an eye on the Three Delicacies Taoist, and whenever the old Taoist showed signs of "waking up," he would take the initiative to approach him.

Every time the Three Delicacies Taoist opened his eyes and saw Wu Wang, he would hold his head and say "oh" a few times, then slowly lie back down.

There's a problem!

There's definitely a problem with the Three Delicacies Taoist!

Wu Wang suddenly remembered the situation when Heavenly Emperor Di Shun appeared on the streets of the Nine Wastelands City.

At the beginning, the first few words of Heavenly Emperor Di Shun, he only saw his mouth moving and didn't hear any sound, which obviously wasn't directed at him.

Wu Wang initially thought that Heavenly Emperor Di Shun should have crossed the universe and was chatting with a certain high-level expert.At this moment, it occurred to Wu Wang that the Heavenly Emperor's gaze might have been on...

Possibly on Three Delicacies Taoist!

This thought emerged, and waves of unease rose in Wu Wang's heart.

Three Delicacies Taoist was a member of the human race, and there was no doubt about his cultivation and Dao realm. Wu Wang's own mother had carefully investigated and found no abnormalities.

Thinking about what Three Delicacies Taoist had said, "I promised someone that I wouldn't become an immortal."

It might not be about love or hatred, but rather a secret he was hiding.

But since Three Delicacies Taoist didn't speak, Wu Wang couldn't force him. He could only keep a little distance from Three Delicacies Taoist and draw a big question mark on the old Taoist's face.

On this day, Snow Eagle Elder found Wu Wang meditating in the room, with a hesitant expression and hesitant words.

Wu Wang smiled, "Senior, are you planning to leave Cloud City?"

"It's not that I'm afraid of death..."

Snow Eagle Elder muttered, "The main thing is, we're running a restaurant business here, and there are hardly any people left. It's unreasonable to keep the restaurant open."

"Senior's words make sense."

Wu Wang's expression was quite solemn as he made a respectful gesture to Snow Eagle Elder and said seriously, "Thank you, Senior, for accompanying me all the way. I will remember Senior's kindness and will definitely repay it."

"You're too kind, you're too kind."

Snow Eagle Elder took out a treasure bag from his sleeve and handed it to Wu Wang, saying softly, "Inside are the keys to all the formations in this place, as well as the basic diagrams of the formations in operation here. I know that the Four Seas Pavilion may need these... By the way, would I be considered deserting my post? Will I be punished?"

"Senior, rest assured," Wu Wang smiled, "You haven't received any orders, so how can it be considered desertion?"

Snow Eagle Elder breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. You take this, and if this shop is destroyed, it's no big deal. There's something else, can you help me persuade Three Delicacies? He just insisted on staying here to watch the excitement, and even said that his lifespan is short, so he might as well die here. He regards you as half a disciple, and even passed on the formations that were kept hidden. At this time, your words will definitely be more effective than mine."

Wu Wang said, "Then I'll go and persuade Senior."

"Ah, that's good..."

"No need, I'm listening."

A light sigh came from outside the door, and Three Delicacies Taoist floated up from the lower level, holding a listening jade token in his hand.

The old Taoist looked at Wu Wang with a complex expression and said softly, "Chixia, will my presence here cause you trouble?"

Wu Wang felt a little reluctant in his heart, but still nodded calmly and said seriously, "Senior may not like what I'm about to say, but Senior really can't help here, and instead, I have to take care of you. It's not just me from the Four Seas Pavilion who has eyes and ears in Cloud City. We came here on orders, so our priority is to fulfill our own mission."

"This..."

Three Delicacies Taoist looked hesitant, and said, "Then I'll leave."

Wu Wang smiled, "Senior, I'm really curious."

"This is my own matter, I want to take it to the grave and not let anyone know."

Three Delicacies Taoist arched his hand to Wu Wang and said with a smile, "Meeting Chixia this time has left me with few regrets. In life, all I seek is a confidant, a companion, and a good disciple. Passing on the way of formations to you, Chixia, I can die without regrets."

Wu Wang sighed lightly in his heart and said with a smile, "I have had many teachers in my life. Some taught me how to ride a bow, some taught me how to read and write, and some taught me the ways of being a good person. If Senior doesn't mind, I would like to address Senior as my teacher."

Three Delicacies Taoist's expression was deeply moved.

"Do you really not mind that my cultivation is low?"

Wu Wang smiled, "The way of formations and the achievements of a teacher are far above me."

"Good, good," Three Delicacies Taoist was a little at a loss, and wanted to say something, but was pulled away by Snow Eagle Elder, who saw that things were not going well.

Snow Eagle Elder scolded with a smile, "Yan Shaoxia is giving you face, and you still want to be a teacher? Let's go, don't cause trouble here!"

"Take care, Senior."

Wu Wang made a respectful gesture and said with a smile, "Let's meet again in Jiuhuang City."

"Take this with you," Three Delicacies Taoist took out a treasure bag from his sleeve and handed it to Wu Wang, saying in a low voice, "Keep this on you, it might save your life in the chaos of battle."

"Senior, isn't this too precious..."

"It's just a token given to me by others," Three Delicacies Taoist smiled, "You must keep it on you."

"Okay."

Wu Wang nodded with a smile, "Thank you, Senior."

Only then did Three Delicacies Taoist breathe a sigh of relief, looked at Wu Wang's disguised face a few times, and took the initiative to walk to Snow Eagle Elder.

Before long, Snow Eagle Elder left the high-rise building with more than ten human cultivators.With the help of a familiar person from the Yu Min country, they were able to leave the city smoothly and head north on the Snow Eagle.

Wu Wang was somewhat suspicious and held the treasure bag left by the Three Delicacies Taoist in his hand, opening it to take a look.

Inside was a jade ring.

The ring was ordinary in size, with flat sides, no carvings, and no special patterns. What kind of token was this?

With some confusion, Wu Wang used his immortal power to seal the item and put it into the Yin Yang Ring, suppressing it with precious minerals.

What was so special about the Three Delicacies Taoist?

Unable to become an immortal, seemingly acquainted with the Heavenly Emperor, accomplished in the way of formations, and developed various practical immortal tools...

Wu Wang hesitated slightly about this matter and mentioned it to the senior Shen Nong before deciding to temporarily set it aside.

The immediate priority was the imminent battle in the Cloud City.

After several days of the Cloud City being empty, large numbers of cultivators appeared in the north, east, and south.

These human cultivators hid their tracks, deliberately revealing their aura as if deliberately creating momentum.

The second layer of tactics arranged by Wu Wang had begun to advance, and the key figure Lin Nu Hao had also appeared in the east of the Cloud City, hundreds of miles away, with a large number of followers, creating a formidable momentum.

Then, large numbers of golden-armored divine guards emerged from underground in various parts of the Cloud City, forming formations in the sky.

More than ten innate gods flew out from underground and evenly spread out in the air, releasing their own pressure.

The majestic figures of more than ten powerful gods made the creatures hiding in the Cloud City restless.

Even Lin Qi was taken to the city wall and sat on a chair without any guards around.

Wu Wang thought for a day and a night; for a whole day and night, he couldn't figure out why the Heavenly Palace had planned to reveal themselves from the beginning, so why did they hide before?

Perhaps they disdained lurking and ambushing.

On the second day after Lin Qi was brought out, Wu Wang crushed a jade token in his hand.

The sound of war drums resounded through the sky in the east of the Cloud City, hundreds of miles away.

White clouds rose into the sky, filled with brightly armored immortal soldiers, and large 'Lin' character flags fluttered between heaven and earth.

At the same time, countless flying treasures rose into the sky in the south of the Cloud City, covering the sky.

In the northern land of the Cloud City, figures flew low in the sky, and for a moment, it was impossible to count how many human realm cultivators there were.

"Heh."

A light laugh came from deep within the Cloud City.

In an instant, divine light surrounded the area, stars fell, and the sky was filled with a golden light rain. Deputy Deity of Lifespan, dressed in an ancient robe, walked to the throne in the sky, sitting on the throne made of condensed divine light.

The figure of Junior Deity of Lifespan appeared in the southeast corner of the Cloud City, with her hands hidden in her sleeves, quietly watching the battle.

In the place where demons were suppressed, Wu Wang's residence, a cup of hot tea still emitted a faint fragrance, but Wu Wang's figure was nowhere to be found.

"Heavenly Palace!"

A loud shout came from the eastern sky.

Dozens of old men were surrounded by immortal soldiers, and Lin Nu Hao, wearing a red battle armor and holding a long spear, appeared with an imposing expression, his voice echoing for hundreds of miles:

"Abducting my son, coercing us, is this what you call divine!"

On the city wall, Lin Qi's eyes widened, bloodshot veins visible in his eyes.

He wanted to shout for his father to go back, even to end his own life here, but his divine spirit was sealed, and he could only stare into the distance.

Deputy Deity of Lifespan sat leisurely on the throne, saying in a calm voice, "Where is Master Wuwang?"

"Only I have come," Lin Nu Hao said proudly, holding the hilt of his sword with one hand. "Since it's my son, I will be the one to save him. What does it have to do with Master Wuwang!"

"I'm asking, where is Master Wuwang?"

Deputy Deity of Lifespan's voice carried a hint of impatience. "Human realm cultivators are always like this, thinking highly of themselves, thinking they can do something significant. Master Wuwang is like this, and so are all of you."

Lin Nu Hao sneered, "Master Wuwang can make the Heavenly Palace go to such lengths, even committing the despicable act of abducting an Elemental Immortal. Isn't that significant? As for you, going to such lengths to plot against me, the Deputy Deity of Lifespan, and showing such fear towards an Elemental Immortal, it's truly laughable!"

Deputy Deity of Lifespan always had a faint smile, saying calmly, "In that case, your son is right here. I will take his life in six hours. During these six hours, if you have the ability, take him away from here."

Several hundred miles away, Lin Nu Hao's cold snort rolled over like muffled thunder.

But several innate gods on the Cloud City all moved forward slightly, instantly suppressing Lin Nu Hao's momentum.Lin Nuhao, followed by dozens of old men, each exuded their own aura, and the principles of their own paths unfolded between heaven and earth, and the two sides began to confront each other across space.

The Human Realm cultivators who were surrounding them all stopped at a distance of a hundred miles.

What the Heavenly Palace side did not realize was that among these cultivators, there were many elderly people.

At the same time, in a dark corner.

Wu Wang, wearing a cloak, took out pieces of "puzzle" from his sleeve and laid them out on the ground to form a giant Bagua array.

Everything was proceeding according to his plan. First, Lin Nuhao appeared, and then the army surrounded them.

In this situation, if they could provoke the Sky God to take the initiative to act, it would be even better, as it would give the Human Realm side more room to maneuver.

The timing was just right.

The sound of drums shook the heavens, and flags fluttered in the sky.

Wu Wang continued to calculate the current situation in his mind, and his divine sense could barely explore the entire situation. However, because the Sky God was too strong, when his divine sense explored, all he saw was a distorted light cluster.

The three armies of the Human Realm once again slowly approached, but after advancing for only a dozen miles, they immediately stopped, and then retreated a few miles back.

Lin Nuhao shouted, "Deputy Deity of Lifespan, why don't we have a talk?"

"A talk?"

The Deputy Deity of Lifespan smiled and said, "Let Master Wuwang come over for a talk. You are not qualified."

Lin Nuhao fell silent.

"What's wrong?" the Deputy Deity of Lifespan continued, "The people of the Human Realm are willing to let you come and die, but not willing to let Master Wuwang come over? I have heard that Master Wuwang has arrived in the southeastern region some time ago. Is he hiding among these three groups now?"

Lin Nuhao said, "Apart from letting Master Wuwang come over, does the Heavenly Palace have any other conditions? Can you let my son return?"

"The human race needs to know its place."

The Deputy Deity of Lifespan's finger moved slightly, and the western sky suddenly darkened.

The enormous body of the Hissing Snake covered the entire horizon, and the space in the west was instantly sealed off, with several shadows revealing their presence.

Ten... eight Evil Gods arrived together!

Lin Nuhao's expression changed, and the cultivators behind him also became tense.

The Deputy Deity of Lifespan sneered, slightly raised his left hand, and then lowered it, with a hint of a smile in his eyes.

"You are already surrounded."

It was so easy to annihilate the Human Realm with living forces.

Boom!

A violent thunderous sound rang out between heaven and earth, and a muscular man in battle armor leaped into the air. Countless thunder gathered from all directions, like rivers converging into the sea, and like dragons galloping.

In the next moment, the man's figure continued to expand, turning into a thunderous giant hundreds of feet tall, wielding an iron rod as tall as himself, and smashing countless thunder towards Lin Nuhao's direction from a distance.

The God of Thunderstorm!

There were no battle cries, but a large number of divine guards rushed forward with the thunder, each emitting a divine light around them.

Lin Nuhao drew his sword and roared, "Fight!"

Dozens of old men behind him waved their sleeves, and streams of light rose into the sky, forming a large array in an instant, resisting the attack of the Thunder God!

Amidst the rumbling, the thunder light scattered, and the mountains and rocks within a radius of hundreds of miles shattered!

Dozens of old men from the Human Realm flew out, launching attacks on the Thunder God, with sword light like ropes, palm shadows like tidal waves, and some experts directly summoning a mountain to smash down on the Thunder God's head!

The fierce wind roared between heaven and earth, and countless creatures in the southeastern region of the Great Wasteland were restless.

Half of the Sky Gods immediately followed the Thunder God and surged towards the east.

At this moment!

"Hmm?"

Both the Deputy Deity of Lifespan and the Junior Deity of Lifespan exclaimed in surprise, their gazes converging on the ground and landing on a high tower in the shape of a pagoda.

Intense fluctuations in the universe.

In almost an instant, the Deputy Deity of Lifespan struck out with a palm, and the Junior Deity of Lifespan's figure flashed, appearing beside the high tower.

The palm shadow struck, and the high tower silently shattered.

The Junior Deity of Lifespan lightly waved her sleeve, and the debris of the high tower disappeared into thin air.

A simple Bagua array was placed on the foundation of the high tower, with the forces of the five elements chasing each other, constantly stirring the universe.

In the next moment, inside and outside the Cloud City, there were suddenly a hundred and six areas where the universe shook to varying degrees.

The Deputy Deity of Lifespan suddenly stood up, and his gaze fell on the city.

An innate god immediately said, "They are all fake, they are deliberately trying to attract our attention!"

"Using falsehood to confuse the truth?"

"No, it's outside!"

A goddess lightly shouted, and her gaze turned towards the outside of the city.

From the east, south, west, and north, dozens of elderly figures rose into the sky, and the great roads trembled between heaven and earth.

Transcendents!

More Transcendents!

In the hands of these Transcendents, each held a precious bead, and in an instant, they all rose to the same height and exerted all their strength to lift the precious beads!

It was as if a curtain of pearls had descended between heaven and earth, completely severing the universe!

From the south, figures flew out of the airships, and it was unknown how many Heavenly Immortals there were. The two figures at the forefront, one tall and one short, were none other than Celestial Sword Taoist and the Chief of the Renhuang Pavilion, Liu Bairen!To the north, the scattered soldiers and valiant warriors suddenly surged in power, as True Immortals and Heavenly Immortals swiftly formed battle arrays. Several figures stood at the forefront, led by Feng Yezi of the Four Seas Pavilion, along with a group of elders.

To the east, Lin Nuhao's lips curled into a faint smile, with two elderly men, their complexions pale and vitality waning, appearing behind him.

But with a deep breath, flames ignited on their foreheads, and the Great Dao of Fire descended upon them.

Lin Nuhao showed respect and whispered, "I entrust this to you both."

"Our lifespans are exhausted."

"We shall give our lives."

The two elders smiled, shaking their heads as they charged forward. Their once-depleted vitality now replenished and expanding, their Great Dao ignited by a blaze, now exuding an endless and formidable pressure.

The Great Dao of Fire was not merely simple flames.

It was release, combustion, an unstoppable motion, and more so, a fuse to ignite the Dao within themselves.

The two advanced calmly, their presence pressuring heaven and earth, charging head-on towards the Thunder God!

In the Great Wasteland, lights of divine energy flickered around the Heavenly Palace, with numerous figures suspended in the air.

In the Great Wasteland, within the Human Realm, Shen Nong stood by the Eastern Sea, his wooden staff rising and falling, with vines intertwining faintly between heaven and earth.

Meanwhile;

In the southeastern region of the Great Wasteland, in the city above the clouds, a hundred zhang beneath the ground, within the sprawling underground palace, in an inconspicuous corner.

Wu Wang stood with his hands behind his back in front of the array that had been operational for a while.

Previously, the one hundred and eight disguised array discs had erupted in sequence, not only to create confusion but also to conceal the anomaly here.

Figures clad in fiery red armor had already rushed out, each concealing their breath, all emerging from secret passages here, subduing those in black cloaks.

The Imperial Guards.

The array's light flickered incessantly, and streaks of light flashed by. Huo Ling arrived with three leaders of different appearances.

More lights twinkled, and one by one, the elderly with depleted vitality and calm complexions, either supported by others or walking on their own, emerged from the array.

Wu Wang greeted these elders with a Daoist salute.

He had seen a few of them before.

In the small world where they went to retrieve divine power, they sat on the roof of that great hall.

"Lord Wu Wang," Huo Ling frowned, "What place is this? Such an excellent spot for a surprise attack from behind."

Wu Wang pointed to the corner, and the bald, burly man quickly ran over.

"Did you call for me, Sect Master?"

Wu Wang said, "He led me here, remember to commend him. He's been a great help this time. Also, this is the third main hall of the Ten Calamities Palace. Smash it when you break out."

"Yes!"

The four leaders took their orders at once, with Huo Ling gripping a long spear, leading the charge.

The elders took a deep breath, the Great Dao of Fire coursing through their bodies, igniting their Dao and their very beings.

This was their final battle.

And today, they were the true main force against the gods.

Figures passed by Wu Wang, weaving through the earth.

The elders were ready, their eyes gleaming, smiles on their lips.

The Heavenly Palace had set their end;

At their appointed time, they would be buried here alongside the gods of the Heavenly Palace.

"Lord Wu Wang, thank you."

The crowd gave a Daoist salute, and Wu Wang could only return the gesture.

"Elders, please send my regards to the Deputy Deity of Lifespan."

"Certainly."

"Good."

"Our time has come!"

"To slay the gods and destroy the Heavenly Palace!"
