Chapter 212: Chapter 155: As the Words Command, So the Law Follows_2
His greatest concern was not an isolated case; it was the predicament of the Cangyun Realm before him.
In the current universe, Immortal Martial Two Palaces had joined forces and occupied forty percent of Heavenly Fate, thus able to suppress the Myriad Realms and All Heavens.
But if it were just the Immortal Alliance alone, they would only occupy twenty percent of Heavenly Fate, while the combination of the Myriad Realms and All Heavens would take up thirty percent. To the Immortal Alliance, this undoubtedly presented a significant advantage.
If the Myriad Realms, united with All Heavens, were to invade on a large scale, the Immortal Alliance alone simply could not hold out.
Reflecting on this, his gaze pierced through the starry river as he lifted his head to scan his surroundings.
Soon, he sensed the presence of numerous spatial passages.
This was enough proof that the Myriad Realms were not merely acting against Cangyun Realm alone, but had encompassed many Great Realms.
This was a declaration of war against the entire Immortal Alliance!
Ji Yuyan quickly recalled a warning from an Immortal King in the Immortal Alliance: an impending great battle was upon them. Now it seemed the warning was coming true.
No wonder the Immortal Alliance couldn't spare forces to aid Cangyun at a moment's notice. Faced with the sudden strike from the Myriad Realms, the Immortal Alliance, caught off guard, was bound to endure tremendous pressure.
Within the Immortal Alliance, there were countless places more significant than the Cangyun Realm.
For a time, Ji Yuyan's brows were tightly furrowed. With too little information at his disposal, he didn't know the specifics and found it hard to discern whether the Myriad Realms had truly allied with All Heavens.
However, even if the Myriad Realms and All Heavens struck together, with the Martial Hall at their side, the situation of the Immortal Alliance shouldn't be too dire.
Thinking of the Martial Hall, Ji Yuyan's heart trembled slightly, and he relaxed somewhat. If the Martial Hall could intervene, perhaps things were not too bad.
"Immortal Alliance's lapdog."
The man in green who stood not far away suddenly spoke, his gaze slowly sweeping over the Cangyun Cultivators before him, his tone indifferent:
"The Cangyun Realm, after all, was once a major realm. To have weakened to such an extent that not even a True Immortal can be seen, it turns out I've overestimated it."
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his Divine Sense stirred. Behind him, a multitude of Immortal Treasures suddenly erupted with surging Immortal Qi and burst forth with blazing Immortal Light, all pressuring towards the man in green not far away.
In the vastness of space, in an instant, it was as if a dozen suns had appeared, burning with rolling Immortal Flames, sweeping across all directions.
The Taixuan Battle Halberd was the first to cleave down, Divine Fire surged forth, and in an instant, billions of miles of starry river turned to ashes.
High Quality Immortal Treasures, even though incomplete, still had enough power to kill Seven Tribulations True Immortals, with awe-inspiring might, once their True Spirits were revived inside them.
Faced with the fiercely descending Battle Halberd, the man in green showed no ripples of emotion on his face, and he spoke lightly:
"The sage has decreed, under this starry sky, arms are forbidden."
As his words fell, a white piece of paper appeared in his palm, spontaneously igniting, turning to ash in an instant.
Boom—
Under the dome of the starry sky, the fluctuations of the Laws suddenly changed, a gentle breeze swept across the battlefield.
In just an instant, all the Immortal Treasures wrapped in various Immortal Flames, including the Tongxuan Spiritual Treasures held by the Cangyun Cultivators in the distance, were completely suppressed without the slightest resistance.
"Words follow the decree... Confucian-Taoist Sub-Sage!"
Ji Yuyan was no stranger to dealing with those from the Heretic Path, and in an instant, he understood and a look of astonishment appeared in his eyes.
A Confucian-Taoist Sub-Sage was a Supreme Being capable of matching an Immortal King. Even the casual truespeak written by them held unfathomable power.
If the paper bore the word "slay," not a single person in Cangyun Realm present could have survived.
The man in green appeared somewhat disappointed. For this battle, he had made many preparations. He didn't enter the spatial passage rashly; instead, he waited for his opportunity, intending to maximize his advantage.
This was not the Cangyun Realm; the Heavenly Dao Laws would not favor Cultivators, and for those Immortal Path Cultivators adept at borrowing the power of the world, their strength would inevitably be weakened.
He had thought that at least a dozen True Immortals would come here from Cangyun Realm. In order to curb their power, he had sought a Prohibition Army Order from the Sub-Sage.
Without Immortal Treasures, even True Immortals' combat power would be greatly diminished, and afterwards, they could be dealt with slowly.
If he had known earlier how weak these cultivators from the Cangyun Realm were, lacking even a True Immortal, he would have gone directly to the Sub-Saint to request an Immortal-Slaying Order. With a single word, he could have severed these people's Celestial Foundations and ended their ability to fight in one fell swoop.
This Prohibition Army Order seems a bit too conservative.
His gaze slowly swept over the battlefield before he couldn't help but show a slight change in expression.
Geng Yiyang stood behind Ji Yuyan, with the Golden Crow Heavenly Divine Flame, Taixuan Divine Fire, and Infernal Flame burning fiercely beside him, unaffected by the Prohibition Army Order.
The Immortal Flames of Taixuan Holy Land are not considered weapons, thus still capable of fighting.

Ji Yuyan turned and glanced back, slightly relieved. The Immortal Armor he had worn was also suppressed by a single word from the Sub-Saint and could no longer be utilized.
If it weren't for the three Immortal Flames that Geng Yiyang brought, this battle would have been lost before it had even begun.
"As a member of the Human Race, fraternizing with the Demon Race, you know no shame."
In the distance, a man in green robes glanced at a group of shape-shifted Great Demons with obvious disdain in his eyes:
"I heard that within the Immortal Alliance, some True Immortals even colluded with the Demon Race, giving birth to cursed offsprings that cannot distinguish between human and demon, contaminating our Human Race's bloodlines. For this alone, they are guilty of crimes that cannot be redeemed, even by death a thousand times over."
No sooner had the words left his lips than the group of shape-shifted Great Demons showed angry faces, gritting their teeth tightly.
Their bloodline was their most prized glory, the heritage left by their ancestors, but in the words of the man before them, it was reduced to something contemptible.
Even so, their current situation did not permit them to react.
The Immortal Treasures they brought were effortlessly suppressed in an instant, shattering their courage. The power of the man before them was just too terrifying.
Faced with the man in green robes' mockery, Ji Yuyan remained calm without replying, knowing that it would be humiliating to exchange verbal jabs with a Confucian Cultivator.
His mind stirred, and he sent a telepathic message to Geng Yiyang behind him, "With these Immortal Flames, how confident are you in dealing with this person?"
"I can only control the Immortal Flames with great effort by relying on the Taixuan Divine Fire Scripture. If I die, the Immortal Flames will surely become uncontrollable, not distinguishing friend from foe. I don't have many days left to live."
Geng Yiyang didn't directly answer Ji Yuyan's question, instead detailing the awkward position their group was now in.
His lifespan was nearing its end. Controlling the Immortal Flames against the enemy would only hasten his death. The prospect of victory in this battle had already diminished.
Now, Ji Yuyan was left with only two choices: retreat to Cangyun and await death or fight desperately to the end.
Ji Yuyan's heart sank. Before he could speak again, a ripple suddenly appeared in the distant void, and a figure slowly emerged, long hair cascading over his shoulders, dressed in a gray Taoist robe, nearing forty, with an Ancient Bronze Sword on his back, his expression indifferent.
"A Qi Cultivator from the Taoist School... A cultivator of the Unity Realm Stage..."
Sensing the fluctuations of Yuan Qi exuding from the man, Ji Yuyan's expression grew even grimmer.
Despite his reluctance to admit it, when it comes to the strength of life force, few orthodoxy can compete with Qi Cultivators.
Survival in the universe is not difficult, the real challenge lies in enduring prolonged battles. Without the world's energy, spiritual energy cannot be replenished in a short period, and restoring one's state becomes even more challenging.
Qi Cultivators move about in the universe much easier than other cultivators. Even in the desolate Dead Stars, Qi Cultivators could still extract Yuan Qi.
This advantage alone makes Qi Cultivators unmatched by others in their realm when it comes to battles in the stars.
To compete with the heavens for fate is truly no benevolent deed.
What is most crucial is that the Ancestral Dao backing the Qi Cultivators is far too terrifying, occupying a quarter and a half of the Heavenly Fate.
If not for the excessive amount of Heavenly Fate seized by Qi Cultivators for their own, which prevented other Qi Cultivators from relying on the protection of the Ancestral Dao's residual power, the current structure of the Great Universe would likely be utterly different.
After this Unity Realm Stage Qi Cultivator appeared, he scanned the Cangyun Cultivators in the distance and did not attack. He sent a telepathic message to the man in green robes beside him:
"Why do these people seek to start a war in the stars?"
In past wars with the Immortal Alliance, the Alliance would always choose to defend using the Heavenly Dao Laws at the other end of the spatial passage.
Fighting beyond their own realms is clearly disadvantageous for Immortal Path Cultivators, yet they still chose to do so, evidently there is a hidden motive.
