Chapter 89: I agree
When the smoke from the attack finally cleared, all eyes turned to the spot where Jiang Yun had stood. To everyone's shock, Jiang Yun remained standing firmly, his body completely unscathed, as if none of the attacks had touched him.
Jiang Yun glanced around, his gaze sweeping over the nearly 30,000 Immortal Emperors gathered on the battlefield. Every force listed in the Golden Rankings was present: the Immortal Dragon Clan, the Golden Immortal Merchant Guild, the Immortal Demon Emperor's Sacred Land, the Holy Immortal Emperor's Dynasty, the Immortal Sword Emperor's Sacred Land, the Xue Immortal Clan, the Dark Immortal Emperor's Sect, and the Immortal Phoenix Emperor's Dynasty. Even more factions had gathered here, with the sole exception of the Immortal Star Emperor's Sacred Land, which Jiang Yun had already destroyed.
Jiang Yun smiled but didn't even bother using his Eyes of Insight. In his mind, the system's voice rang out, alerting him to the presence of numerous Children of Destiny.
"When did you all decide to get together? You didn't invite me," Jiang Yun mocked, his tone dripping with sarcasm.
Suddenly, Feng Yi, the Empress of the Immortal Phoenix Dynasty, emerged from her army, walking with grace. Her cold eyes locked onto Jiang Yun.
"Surrender, or die here," Feng Yi declared, her voice sharp and resolute. She showed no emotion, her expression remaining as cold and determined as ever.
Jiang Yun smiled again, his smile mysterious and dangerous. "Die? You plan to kill me? Isn't that a bit ruthless?"
But Feng Yi stood firm, unmoved by Jiang Yun's taunt. "Surrender or die. Choose."
As Jiang Yun considered her words, a voice interrupted his thoughts. Jiang Tian, the First Patriarch of the Jiang Clan, who shared Jiang Yun's bloodline, stepped forward with a solemn expression.
"Jiang Yun, you should surrender. You can't defeat the Empress. Even if you bring all your forces here, you're cornered now. Even being a half-god won't help you."
Jiang Yun looked at Jiang Tian with an empty gaze, the smile on his face slowly fading. He didn't respond immediately but swept his eyes across the multitude standing before him. Silence hung in the air, as if everyone awaited his decision.
"Cornered, you say?" Jiang Yun murmured as he stepped forward. With each step, an overwhelming, terrifying power radiated from his body. Every Immortal Emperor present began to feel a suffocating pressure, as if they were being crushed.
Then, Jiang Yun dispersed the pressure and spoke with sincerity, "Alright, I agree."
As soon as Jiang Yun finished speaking, a thunderous roar erupted from the furious Immortal Emperors, who immediately launched an attack. It was as if his words had signaled the start of the battle. But in that moment, Jiang Yun casually raised his hand and said calmly, "I already agreed. What more do you want?"
No one heeded his words. The heavy barrage of attacks continued to pour in. Jiang Yun sighed lightly and muttered, "Separate all things, return to the void."
With just a single word, the void devoured the entire space. A black sphere appeared before the Immortal Emperors and everyone else nearby. As soon as they felt the pull of the black sphere, terror set in before anyone could react. The black sphere began to suck in everything—earth, spiritual energy, the bodies of Immortal Emperors, and even those with lower cultivation had no chance to escape. They were all pulled in without resistance.
Even some of the strongest Immortal Emperors were drawn into the small black orb without being able to resist. The once loud battlefield, filled with cries of battle, fell silent as the void consumed everything. Feng Yi, who was among them, was shocked. She had never imagined that Jiang Yun's power could be so overwhelming.
Jiang Yun's voice rang out again, "Ten Thousand Stars Encircle the World."
Suddenly, meteors began to rain down from the sky at high speed. Feng Yi realized she had no choice and whispered in her mind, "System, activate the Temporary Peak Half-God Card and summon the Seven Blade Slaves."
The system's voice echoed in her head, [Affirmative.]
As soon as Feng Yi's command was issued, her power surged dramatically. Her body was enveloped in an overwhelming aura of spiritual energy. The pressure she exuded made everyone around her tremble. But just as she was about to unleash her full strength, something felt wrong. Blood spewed from her mouth, and her body convulsed with intense pain.
A pitch-black sword had pierced her heart. She looked over at Jiang Yun, who hadn't even moved, yet somehow the sword had appeared and struck her. How could this have happened? Feng Yi's body crumbled as she whispered faintly, "How...?"
The soldiers rushed forward in panic, trying to shield her and summon healers to aid Feng Yi. Jiang Yun smiled faintly as he observed Feng Yi's weakened body, collapsing to the ground without even realizing how he had attacked.
Suddenly, flames erupted from Feng Yi's body, scorching everything around her violently. The area transformed into a sea of fire in an instant. Jiang Yun immediately retreated into the void, but Feng Yi's subordinates were not as fortunate—they were burned to ashes within seconds, their screams drowned out by the fire.
Meanwhile, the small black orb that Jiang Yun had created continued to devour everything. The power of the void caused the ground to quake, and meteors rained from the sky like a storm of destruction. Chaos and confusion spread everywhere. People looked around in disbelief, trying to comprehend what was happening. Some attempted to use their teleportation talismans to escape, but none could activate them. It was as though something had sealed them off.
At the same time, a powerful aura emerged amidst the chaos—an aura comparable to Yong Xuan's half-god level. And it wasn't just one presence, but seven! They moved in unison, immediately halting the black sphere's devouring effect, the one created by Jiang Yun.
Seeing an opportunity, Jiang Yun smiled and dashed toward the seven at an almost imperceptible speed. But just as he did, hundreds of thousands of flaming spears launched at him. Jiang Yun quickly used the void to escape, his body dissolving into thin air just before the spears could reach him.
He reappeared some distance away, looking at Feng Yi, who stood surrounded by flames. Her body was ablaze, but even the fire couldn't hide her striking beauty. Jiang Yun smirked and spoke up, "If you're going to dress like that, what if I can't hold back..."
"Die."
Before Jiang Yun could finish his words, Feng Yi interrupted, unleashing a massive fireball that shot toward him at incredible speed. Jiang Yun squinted, a small smile on his face, before his form blurred and disappeared into the void once again, narrowly avoiding the attack.
Within the void, Jiang Yun observed how his technique was being undone by the seven half-god level beings. He sighed and muttered, "Why? Don't any of you want to witness the full power of 'Separate All Things, Return to the Void' or 'Ten Thousand Stars Encircle the World'? This is the second time now..."
While Jiang Yun was lamenting, Feng Yi, engulfed in flames, burst from the void with a flaming spear in hand, aiming to strike him down immediately. However, the spear passed right through Jiang Yun as if his body was made of nothing but void, untouchable. Jiang Yun grinned and swiftly counterattacked, aiming for Feng Yi's head.
But Feng Yi reacted in time. She kicked Jiang Yun to deflect his attack, then quickly retreated. In an instant, the seven half-god warriors appeared within the void. These were the Blade Slaves, summoned by Feng Yi. Jiang Yun continued to smile mockingly, and amidst the rising tension and silence, the fierce battle between the two sides began.
While this intense fight raged on within the void, outside, the gathered forces—assembled to destroy the Fallen Heavenly Blood Sect—stood still, waiting for the outcome of the battle between Feng Yi and Jiang Yun. However, without warning, beams of light rained down from the sky, catching them off guard. As they tried to defend themselves, they found their legs unable to move, and when they looked down, they saw their legs had turned to jade. Darkness began to creep across the ground, pulling them down.
But it didn't stop there. Millions of spears and swords made of spiritual energy shot toward them relentlessly. The warriors on the battlefield tried to use their dimensional rings to summon weapons to defend themselves, but the rings wouldn't activate. It was as if some force was blocking or draining the spiritual energy they needed to use the rings. The spears and swords of spiritual energy closed in, killing many of them instantly.
Some tried to channel their spiritual power to create barriers, but as soon as the energy was released, their bodies malfunctioned. Parts of them exploded violently, and they screamed in agony as blood splattered across the battlefield. Explosions echoed all around them.
Gu Feng, the head of the Gu Immortal Emperor Clan, shouted in panic, "What is happening? Why is it so hard to control spiritual energy?"
Simultaneously, a strange rain began to fall, slowing their movements further, while beams of light continued to strike swiftly. Chang Tong, leader of the Golden Immortal Commerce, tried to create a golden shield to protect the people. But before he could, Gongsun Lei, the master of Thunder Peak, quickly launched an attack on Chang Tong.
Mo Ji, the First Patriarch of the Immortal Demon Emperor Sacred Land, tried to intervene and stop Gongsun Lei, but was blocked by Ba Zhi, the master of Demon Peak. Long Wei, head of the Immortal Dragon Emperor Clan, saw the situation turning dire and attempted to help, but in that very moment, beams of multicolored light, imbued with the power of over 100 Heavenly Laws, hurtled toward him with incredible speed. Then came a massive explosion that reverberated across nearby continents, signaling to all that the Fallen Heavenly Blood Sect had arrived on the battlefield!
