Chapter 1862 - Two Coffins
"Yeah," Weisheng Moran said. She came to Tianming’s side and whispered, "I’ve given it a lot of thought. News of the dreamless celestial emperor"s death will no doubt cause chaos in the nation. Some are even saying that the emperor joined hands with the sun emperor. I worry that the other dreamless celestials would take that as truth and help attack the Myriaddragon Mountains if anyone takes advantage of the chaos." The dreamless celestial nation wasn’t far from the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect, so an attack from them was a real possibility, especially during such chaotic times.
"What do you plan to do?" Tianming asked.
"I figured that since the dreamless celestials don"t really know the truth, and there aren’t any more divine wonderians around, I can help hold back the elites from the dreamless celestial nation. I have my divine wonders, after all, and I also have a rather high status among them. Do you think I should head back to Somnium and see if I can control the situation?" She sounded more and more anxious as she spoke. The dreamless celestials used to be ranked number one and were nothing to be scoffed at, especially with their proximity to the Myriaddragon Mountains.
"Can you do it?" In his mind, she didn"t seem all that powerful. While her divine wonders were amazing, taking control of a faction also required a sharp and witty mind.?????ℯ??????. c?m
"I can!" Her meek expression seemed to be entirely dispelled by a single burst of enthusiasm. Tianming saw a hint of the power she had used against the dreamless celestial emperor.
"Then I"ll give you one day. Come back here after that. Your divine wonders have a huge range and they"ll be incredibly helpful in the battle."
"Alright!" Tianming"s confident and earnest expression seemed to instill courage in her.
"Do you think you"ll be capable of bringing their army over to help us?" he asked, smiling.
"I... I... Little fish will try her best!" she nervously said.
"You"re amazing. I"ll be counting on you." Tianming gave her shoulder a confident squeeze, but her quick blush caused him to immediately let go. "We"re short on time, so I"ll send you to Somnium in the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb. The rest will be up to you."
"Alright!" She recalled the woman slumbering in the cave. If there was time, she wanted to give her a proper burial.
Tianming immediately summoned the s.h.i.+p. "Well, Big Sisters, get on board." The group entered the s.h.i.+p after him and they immediately set off. Given the s.h.i.+p"s speed, it didn"t take long for them to arrive. Even so, Tianming returned after dropping them off. His presence by her side might cause her more problems, after all.
The s.h.i.+p was now empty with them dropped off. Tianming looked at the soft Bamboo Tube Formation and sighed. "Dammit, if only you"d stand straight up...." He looked south at the Voidsky Flame Pillar. That was another place where he could charge up his s.h.i.+p.
"Stand straight up? You mean erect? You want to plow all fifty of them?" Ying Huo said, not letting that chance go.
"Can you be more serious?" Tianming said.
"Who"s the one messing around with other girls? Xian Xian"s bark is inscribed with all of your deeds," Ying Huo said, rolling its eyes. On the eve of the grand battle, only Tianming"s lifebound beasts were able to make him slightly unwind.
"The sun emperor is serious this time. We have to survive and win!" Tianming took a deep breath, understanding that the alliance"s army was as prepared as it could be. It would be impossible to predict how the battle would go. As for their elites, Tianming had two trump cards to play. The first was Weisheng Moran and her fifty divine wonders, while the second was Lingfeng, whose limits were still unclear. He could help out on the battlefield and perhaps even against the sun emperor, but even so, Tianming still felt the pressure mounting as the battle came closer and closer.
......
Near the northern pole of the sun where nova source came pouring out stood a golden-haired man. The nova source fresh out of the pole caused his hair to wildly flutter. His eyes were burning hot and they released a golden beam that stretched thousands of miles. People saw two golden pillars in the sky.
Even with a force of three hundred million, the celestial orderians had retained a large number of top elites and far outstripped the alliance in terms of defensive formations. Every one of their settlements was a fortress, so there was no chance the alliance could launch a surprise attack on their territory.
After a few days of dormancy, the Divine Sun Palace had long ama.s.sed enough nova source to charge it up to full. Yet it still lay there unmoving, even though the troops at the south had already received orders to march for the Myriaddragon Mountains. Within the palace, golden flames burned all over the place. All kinds of totem inscriptions covered the pillars and walls of the palace, which looked even more imposing thanks to the fire. At the center of the palace was an even hotter area. Burning flames filled the corridors, pus.h.i.+ng so much air around that it sounded like roars.
Within that hall stood a man covered in golden flames, looking down at two coffins before him with one hand placed on each. The coffin on the left was crystalline and frosty despite the flaming environment. The one on the right was much larger and thicker, and seemed made of some crimson-gold material. It was also covered in odd inscriptions that looked like they had some kind of historical importance. Within the inscriptions were complex divine patterns. The sun emperor turned his sight to the crystalline coffin on his left.
