  The news of those deaths had instantly spread, and the leaders of the various large powers could no longer sit still. They immediately charged over to Clearwind City.

  Their hideous losses made their hearts drip blood. For a hundred percent chance of victory, each of them had sent at least seventy percent of their strongest disciples, but they had essentially all been killed. They were unable to accept this. They had to make the Martial Heaven Alliance pay a miserable price.

  When they saw Long Chen and the Dragonblood Legion without a single casualty, their fury exploded even more. They wanted to attack immediately just to kill them.

  “Qu Jianying, hand over Long Chen and the Dragonblood Legion, as well as the disciples who participated in the battle of the Yin Yang World, or we’ll trample your Martial Heaven Alliance into the ground!” shouted Yu Xiaoyun.

  Yu Xiaoyun immediately shouted a condition that Qu Jianying couldn’t possibly accept. His goal was clear. He didn’t want just those disciples dead. He wanted the Martial Heaven Alliance destroyed!

  “Trample my Martial Heaven Alliance? Hahaha, good, then let me see if you have that ability!”

  Qu Jianying laughed furiously. Yu Xiaoyun and the others’ plan had failed, and now they wanted justice for their fallen disciples? It was useless talking reason with such people.

  Qu Jianying suddenly took out a small seal. She crushed it.

  Suddenly, the sound of an ancient bell resounded through the air from within the headquarters.

  “The Martial Heaven Order!”

  Startled cries rang out. Suddenly, a pillar of light soared out of the headquarters.

  One figure after another came flying out of the pillar of light, and one of them in particular let out a furious roar.

  “You still dare to bully my children? Today, I’ll kill all of you bastards!”

  Chapter 1919 The Top Authorities Gather

  The speaker was the old man who had just left. He had come charging out again.

  There were two kinds of Martial Heaven Orders. The first one was used to gather troops in times of danger. It was the one that Ye Lingshan had used in the Yin Yang World to summon the Martial Heaven Alliance’s warriors.

  However, the one that Qu Jianying had just activated was supreme. It was the highest order within the Martial Heaven Alliance, and something only the alliance head was qualified to issue. Furthermore, the seal that she had just crushed was a one-time use item.

  The various sect leaders underneath the banner of the Martial Heaven Alliance always had a summon seal on them. When this supreme Martial Heaven Order was activated, all they would have to do was crush their seal, and it would form a spatial channel leading to Qu Jianying.

  This was an extremely terrifying seal. Once activated, it meant a bloody war was about to start.

  “Guangyuan, wait a moment.” Qu Jianying grabbed the old man who was charging forward with the Heaven Splitting Blade. “This battle is very important. Reserve your temper. This relates to the life and death of the entire Martial Heaven Alliance.”

  It was only when Qu Jianying said how grave this situation was that the old man stopped. He glared at the enemy forces. “Fine, I’m not afraid of waiting. I’ve long since found these bastards displeasing.”

  More and more experts came flying out of the beam of light. Each of them had grave expressions. They all knew that a true battle was about to start.

  Very quickly, Long Chen also saw the old patriarch return. The patriarch imperceptibly nodded toward him.

  That put Long Chen at ease. The patriarch had been in a rush to leave because he had been worried about the Xuantian Dao Sect’s safety. However, the truth was that this was just an excuse. His real goal was to send Yue Xiaoqian away with no one the wiser.

  More and more experts came flying out. In just a few breaths’ time, hundreds of Netherpassage experts had arrived.

  However, after a dozen breaths’ time, no one else came. The spatial channel behind Qu Jianying gradually closed.

  The ones who were coming had now come. Even if you gave the rest an hour to consider it, they wouldn’t come.

  There were over six hundred Netherpassage experts here now, standing behind Qu Jianying.

  Qu Jianying’s expression became a bit unsightly. She was filled with disappointment. It was impossible that any sect leader would have missed the Martial Heaven Order. However, only a portion of them had come. The thing that disappointed her the most was the absence of many familiar faces that had fought together with her before.

  That was what made her feel the worst. The passing of time caused many things to change, including people’s feelings. Reality was even crueler than what Qu Jianying had expected.

  Clearwind City was thrown into chaos, and the residents of the city fled outside. If these experts were to start fighting, Clearwind City would be instantly annihilated. Staying in the city would leave them only with their corpses.

  “Qu Jianying, I suppose you never expected this. Your stubbornness and foolishness have long since dissatisfied others. The Martial Heaven Alliance is currently filled with chaos because of you. People have long since left your alliance. The world’s number one alliance might be attractive at other times, but now, not even a third of your people have answered your highest summons. The Martial Heaven Alliance’s hearts are no longer yours. Do you know where you went wrong now?” said Yu Xiaoyun coldly.

  The Martial Heaven Alliance’s actual power was extremely terrifying. If all of its experts arrived, they would be strong enough to easily crush their enemies. Even if it was just half, their numbers would be equal.

  “It was you who secretly sowed dissension amongst our ranks! After buying a bunch of traitors, do you still have the face to criticize others? You really are the world’s most shameless person!” Seeing Qu Jianying’s unsightly expression, Ye Lingshan angrily shouted.

  “Silence! You aren’t qualified to speak here!” Yu Xiaoyun’s shout was like thunder, and a kind of supreme will immediately locked onto Ye Lingshan. She stared in shock.

  Suddenly, Long Chen stepped forward in front of Ye Lingshan. Space shook and all the experts were shocked.

  “He’s actually able to block a Netherpassage expert’s supreme will!” exclaimed one Netherpassage expert.

  The will of a Netherpassage expert was forged through going through life and death. Hence, it was a will that transcended life and death. Those who hadn’t comprehended life and death couldn’t possibly resist it.

  However, Long Chen was able to force away that supreme will using just his own will. In fact, he was even able to force Yu Xiaoyun’s will away from others.

  “Nice.” The old man smiled. Seeing Long Chen’s growth made him feel even happier than having advanced to the Netherpassage realm himself.

  “If she isn’t qualified to speak, then what qualifications do you have to spout such bullshit? Just because you lived a bunch of years for nothing? Is someone big bullying someone small very glorious? For someone like you to be Pill Valley’s master, it seems Lord Brahma and Fallen Daynight are both blind,” sneered Long Chen.

  Gasps rang out. Long Chen’s guts were truly big to even drag two gods into his words. He dared to even blaspheme gods. Was he afraid of nothing?

  “Long Chen, you colluded with the original devil race to harm the Martial Heaven Continent’s geniuses. Now you’re even blaspheming my gods. Today, no matter who protects you, it will be useless. You must face the entire continent’s execution!” shouted Yu Xiaoyun.

  Long Chen snorted derisively, “This world really is one where whoever’s fist is harder is right. If someone’s mouth is bigger, they can even invert black and white. Tell me, did you personally see me collude with the original devil race?”

  “Hmph, you want to argue? The photographic jades of you working together with that woman of the original devil race to slaughter the Martial Heaven Continent’s experts are all in our hands! Just how are you going to defend yourself?” sneered Yu Xiaoyun.


  “Are you an idiot? When did I ever work together with her? She was killing her target, while I was killing mine. It’s just that the time and place were the same. How did that turn into collusion? Could it be that to prove I have no connection with her, I was supposed to just lay there and let my opponents kill me when she started fighting? Would that prove my innocence? Tell me, is your head full of rotten tofu? In your own photographic jades, did you ever see her say a single word to me?” Long Chen scoffed.

  “Although you didn’t speak to her, who knows whether or not you communicated spiritually?” snorted Yu Xiaoyun.

  “Ah, well said. Who knows? Who knows whether or not you’re an undercover agent the original devil race left behind on the continent?” demanded Long Chen.

  “What a giant joke!” sneered Yu Xiaoyun.

  “How is it a joke? I have evidence behind my guess just like you. Your Pill Valley set up a banner as a neutral power and then spent every day silently selling fake medicine to rake in the profits. Even if you refuse to admit to anything else, I suppose everyone here has heard of the scandal of the Bone Forging Pills back in the Eastern Wasteland’s Pill Tower. You intentionally reduced the effect of the pills to make people buy more pills. When you were exposed by the Huayun Sect, you set up a few unremarkable characters to take the heat and then paid off a few people to settle the waves. But in truth, the Bone Forging Pill is just one of many pills that you’ve lowered the effect of. Do you yourself not know how much money you’ve made with this scam? You must know how much money you made, because you then used this money to buy the leaders of the large sects and drive wedges between the members of the Martial Heaven Alliance. Then you used the Yin Yang World to collude with Heavenly Fate Island and get as many of the continent’s geniuses killed as possible. You had all the large powers send their disciples to their deaths, while your Pill Valley merely sent thirteen people. If it wasn’t for the foolish plan you concocted with Heavenly Fate Island, how do you think we, who only numbered six hundred thousand weak people, could possibly defeat an army of two million elites?”

  “Absolute non-!”

  “Are you trying to silence the truth? Since you’re slandering me and want to kill me, I don't mind exposing all your crimes. You set up the various large powers to take huge losses. Your goal was to make them feel pain, which would lead to hatred. You would then turn that hatred against the Martial Heaven Alliance. When that happens, rivers of blood would flow between the Martial Heaven Alliance and the other large powers of the continent. However, your Pill Valley would remain unscathed. You would profit no matter who won,” said Long Chen. “Are you all fools? You were used, and you didn’t even realize it. You sent your best disciples out, while Pill Valley and Heavenly Fate Island conned them to their deaths. Use your brains. Two million experts, all of whom were elites, were annihilated by us. If they didn’t take the initiative to cooperate with us, how could we kill so many people? Then think, just how many disciples did you send out? And how many disciples did Pill Valley send? Even if you don't have brains, use your butt to think and you should still be able to figure it out. Pill Valley wants a huge battle between the large powers of the continent. Tell me, just who would benefit from that? Who would profit the most? Tell me, just who is the real person colluding with the original devil race to destroy the continent?”

  Long Chen’s words were filled with great passion, and his voice shuddered and even became a bit hoarse at perfect times. He was extremely eloquent.

  Both friends and foes looked at the ashen Yu Xiaoyun suspiciously. They really did start to feel a bit suspicious due to Long Chen’s words.

  “You’re making up nonsense! My Pill Valley is the legacy of true gods! How could we possibly collude with the original devil race? There’s no need for more words. Today, Long Chen and his Dragonblood Legion must be killed!” shouted Yu Xiaoyun, his whole body shuddering with fury.

  “Just try and touch my children.” The old man immediately stepped forward, pointing the Heaven Splitting Blade at Yu Xiaoyun.

  “Since you want to die, that’s fine!” Yu Xiaoyun suddenly extended a hand and a giant furnace appeared, causing the stars to shudder. It smashed toward the old man.

  Chapter 1920 The High Priest Comes

  “Long Chen, find a chance to run. Yu Xiaoyun has already achieved his goal. He won’t give you any chance to argue. If this battle starts, the entire continent will be thrown into chaos. All the large powers will be damaged at their core, and Pill Valley will become the greatest winner.” Li Tianxuan sent a message to Long Chen.

  “Understood.” Long Chen nodded. Yu Xiaoyun had played the Martial Heaven Continent like a giant chessboard. Now, the board was reaching its final stage. Whether or not Long Chen had colluded with the original devil race wasn’t important. Even without Yue Xiaoyuan, he would have other excuses to start this battle.

  The main conflict between the two sides was now concentrated on Long Chen. Yu Xiaoyun was stubbornly insisting that Long Chen and the Dragonblood Legion had colluded with the original devil race, using that to light the flames of war.

  The Daynight Furnace and the Heaven Splitting blade erupted with divine light. The stars in the sky shook, as their terrifying clash caused even the Daos of the world to fragment.

  “Cloud!” Long Chen, who had been waiting for this clash, immediately sent a message to Cloud.

  Cloud transformed into her true body, and the Dragonblood Legion’s experts jumped onto her back. She transformed into a streak of light that shot away.

  “Running to escape the punishment for your crimes? If you weren’t feeling guilty, why would you run?” sneered Di Long. He raised a hand, and a giant palm reached out to block Cloud.

  Cloud’s true body was giant, but compared to this gigantic hand, she appeared tiny.

  A ray of sword-light slashed down from the sky, cutting that hand in two.

  “Running means they’re guilty, but not running means being killed by you. Long Chen is right, whoever’s mouth is bigger is capable of inverting right and wrong.” Yan Nantian appeared in the sky, a sword in his hand. He was the one who had broken Di Long’s attack.

  At the same time, the other three Grand Elders of the Martial Heaven Alliance also appeared, their expressions calm.

  With Di Long blocked, Cloud vanished over the horizon. No one could catch up to her.

  As for the fierce clash between the old man and Yu Xiaoyun, it caused primal chaos to explode as the laws of the world were shattered. The old man was forced back over and over again.

  After all, the old man had just advanced to the Netherpassage realm, while Yu Xiaoyun was in the Death realm, the third step of Netherpassage. The difference in cultivation base was extremely great.

  Being forced back infuriated the old man. With a roar, his white hair stood on end, and the Heaven Splitting Blade rumbled. A terrifying pressure crashed down, causing the world to change color.

  “That’s…”

  “The legendary… ninth form of Split the Heavens.”

  “Legend has it that the ninth form is a divine ability capable of cutting apart heaven and earth, of destroying the entire world. This aura is truly terrifying.”

  The old man seemed possessed by a god as he raised the Heaven Splitting Blade. His aura was crazily climbing as if there was no limit.

  “Guangyuan, don’t!” Seeing the old man’s actions, Qu Jianying instantly turned pale as paper.

  “What’s there to be afraid of? Trading the life of an old man like me for the life of Pill Valley’s master is definitely worth it. As for the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect, it will still have Long Chen. He will be able to bring the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect back to its former glory. As for Pill Valley? Once he’s dead, they’ll have nothing.” The old man laughed, his voice booming amongst the crumbling Daos around him.

  The ninth form of Split the Heavens was the peak. There was a legend that said that it required awakening divine energy to use. Without the support of tha
t divine energy, it was possible to use it once at the price of the user’s life energy.

  Yu Xiaoyun’s expression changed. He felt a terrifying pressure lock onto him. Although there were countless powerful experts around him, he was the only one who would be facing this attack.

  “Hmph, you want to exchange your life for mine? Let’s see if you have that ability!” Yu Xiaoyun crossed his hands before him, and the world behind him exploded. Two giant statues appeared in the sky.

  Those two statues were of Pill Valley’s gods, Lord Brahma and Fallen Daynight.

  Sacred divine light flowed around them. Rather than statues, it was like the two gods had come in person. People couldn’t help feeling an urge to kneel.

  “I have the power of gods supporting me. Let’s see just who will die here,” sneered Yu Xiaoyun.

  “Then let’s see.” The old man ignored the statues. His gaze was electric as his aura suddenly soared to a new level. A giant sword-image soared into the sky.

  All the Netherpassage expert’s felt a chill. They felt a prickling sensation on their skin. None of them had expected the old man, who had just advanced to the Netherpassage realm, to be able to unleash such power.

  “Guangyuan, you can’t!” Qu Jianying’s tears suddenly spilled over. She knew that if this sword fell, the old man would forever vanish from this world.

  However, she also knew that if she tried to stop him, it would only distract him. It wouldn’t change that this move had to be unleashed, so her thoughts were in a whirlwind.

  All the experts tensed. Once this move was unleashed, it would mean a giant war would fully erupt through this world.

  “What is all this anger for? Wouldn’t sitting down and having a drink be better?” Suddenly, a gentle voice resounded through the air, a voice that made all those tense nerves loosen.
