Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
On Dusty Sky Planet, the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal had received a message from the G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial.
A cold look flashed across his eyes. “Oh, so Planet Zi has a.s.sembled a ma.s.sive army for this, huh? It looks like things are really getting serious. I guess it’s time for this old pile of bones to join the action then.”
He slowly stood up.
Powerful surges of Pseudo Immortal aura filled the air. However, a similar Pseudo Immortal energy soon came from the skies in the next instant.
A coffin made entirely out of Purple Metal was seen approaching through s.p.a.ce before cras.h.i.+ng into the Dusty Sky Planet like a meteor.
Waves of Pseudo Immortal energy were seeping out from that coffin.
The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal’s pupils shrank.
“This coffin… Hmph! I can’t believe you’re here.”
The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal snorted coldly.
With a creak, the coffin opened.
A skinny old man in gorgeous purple robes walked out. With cloudy eyes filled with sparks of light, he looked at the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal and said, “It’s been a while, Brother Dusty Sky. I see you’re still looking tough as ever. Oh, how I envy you.”
The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal replied coldly, “Cut the nonsense. For someone who already has one foot in the grave to suddenly show himself, I have to ask, why are you here?”
“Oh, it was just on a whim. I want to mentally spar with you. That’s all.”
“Hm, just want to spar, you say? I bet you’re trying to stall me so that I can’t go to the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom. Am I right?” The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal sneered.
“Is that Immortal Progeny worth doing so much for?”
The skinny old man asked.
“In this world, the value doesn’t matter to me. What matters most is whether I’m willing to do it or not.” A longsword with a green light swirling around it appeared in the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal’s hand. Then, he immediately lifted his hand and unleashed a magnificent surge of sword qi.
The skinny old man quickly mobilized his thoughts.
His coffin instantly moved in front of him to block that attack.
When the two attacks collided, the Dusty Sky Planet rumbled, and huge cracks began to spread from the two of them.
“Now, let us begin.”
Pseudo Immortal energy started swirling around the skinny old man’s body.
A battle between Pseudo Immortals was about to begin!
…
In the Ancient G.o.dly City.
Looking at the few Daoist Celestials who were willing to stay behind, the G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial was very grateful. “You have my deepest grat.i.tude for doing this.”
“My lord, there’s no need to thank us for this. When I was hunted down by my enemies in the past, you were the one who saved me and allowed me to start a sect in the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom. Till this day, I still haven’t had the chance to repay this kindness you showed me.”
A hulking man in yellow robes laughed.
Meanwhile, a cold-looking woman standing beside him glanced at the G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial and said, “I’m staying back not because of you or Chu Kuangren, but for the Lunar Palace and all of its disciples there. So, don’t think too much of it.”
That woman was the Lady of the Lunar Palace, a Heavenly Daoist Celestial.
The G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial had known her for many years, and she was firm in speech but soft in heart. Although he did not say much, he was still grateful toward her.
The others also had strong relations.h.i.+ps with the G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial.
In the air above the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom.
Having seen everything inside the city, Zi Xiao said indifferently. “It looks like you have made your choice.”
He then gently raised his arm.
The cannons from the countless wars.h.i.+ps behind him were aimed toward the city.
Daoist patterns of light swirled, and surges of energy began acc.u.mulating.
“It’s a shame that the path you chose… is the path of death!”
Zi Xiao lowered his arm.
Countless light beams were immediately fired from the wars.h.i.+ps!
Boom, boom, boom…
The energy from the light beams rained down upon the golden barrier of the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom with a loud bang.
Ripples gradually appeared on the golden barrier.
The war had begun.
At that moment, the w.a.n.g clan’s Great Forefather came before Zi Xiao and greeted him with cupped fists. “Chu Kuangren is an enemy of my w.a.n.g clan as well. Hence, I’m offering to contribute by taking the lead against Chu Kuangren.”
Zi Xiao nodded upon seeing this. “It seems that not everyone in the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom is an id*ot since smart people like you are still around.”
Just like that, the w.a.n.g clan joined the great army of Planet Zi in the conquest of the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom.
Although the great defensive formation of the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom was very powerful, the great Planet Zi army was no joke as well. Under the successive bombardment from thousands of light beams, the great formation had started to crumble.
“Prepare for battle!”
The G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial said.
After drawing his sword, his terrifying sword aura erupted!
Meanwhile, not far away, a flash of sword ray swooped in and resonated with his sword aura.
“Who’s this?”
The G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial was a little confused.
He did not sense any sign of hostility from that sword ray at all.
‘Unless that person is not from Planet Zi?’
“Haha. My name is Yang Xiao, and I’ve come to help the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom!”
A heroic voice came from within the sword ray.
A handsome middle-aged man with hair graying at his temples arrived before the great Planet Zi army. Then, he struck out with his sword, releasing a powerful sword ray toward them.
Dozens of wars.h.i.+ps were destroyed under his attack!
“Yang Xiao? The Yang Xiao of the Heavenly Sword Sect?”
Planet Zi’s Sky Guardian said coldly, “How dare you people from the Heavenly Sword Sect interfere with this? Aren’t you afraid that Planet Zi will retaliate?!”
“I once owe the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal a favor, so I’ve merely come to return it today. This has nothing to do with the Heavenly Sword Sect. If you want revenge, you’ll have to take it out on me.”
Yang Xiao laughed as his white robes fluttered in the air, his sword aura raging forth like a dangerous tide.
Upon seeing that from below, the G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial was overjoyed.
‘This guy, Yang Xiao, is a Heavenly Daoist Celestial too.’
‘With his help, the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom will last a bit longer.’
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
At that moment, several rays of light swooped into the city from s.p.a.ce.
Although each of them exuded different Dao fluctuations, all of them were emanating with incredibly powerful Daoist Celestial auras.
“Daoist Celestial s.h.i.+ Ling, here to a.s.sist the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom!”
“Haha! I, Yun Xiaotian, have come to protect Chu Kuangren, the Sword Poet Immortal!”
“Wandering cultivator, An Tian. I’m here to join the fun too.”
Many of them announced their names one after another.
They were powerful cultivators from the Violet Gold Galaxy, and right now, all of them had come to protect Chu Kuangren.
Everyone was secretly stunned.
They understood that although these people were stating their intentions to protect Chu Kuangren, they were actually here to return the favor to the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal.
“The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal’s reputation in the Violet Gold Galaxy is just too high. Look at all these powerful cultivators who he once helped.”
“That’s right. Take Yang Xiao, for example. Rumor had it that he used to be an Immortal Progeny and that his Demonic Heaven Sword was made by the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal. That sword has been with him ever since.”
“The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal’s network is just too powerful.”
Thi spectating cultivators outside the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom were amazed.
At the same time, the G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestials and others were greatly overjoyed.
“Ha! As expected of the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal. Who can gather all the powerful cultivators from all corners of the galaxy here but him?”
The G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial laughed.
On the other hand, the powerful cultivators from Planet Zi looked extremely grim.
“The Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal is really troublesome.”
The Sky Guardian snorted.
Even he did not expect the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal would have such an influence. To think he had such a strong network across the galaxy.
“Planet Zi, do you still wish to fight?” said Yang Xiao with his hands behind his back and a crowd of cultivators here to repay their favor to the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal behind him.
“Heh.”
A chuckle rang out as Zi Xiao took a step forward. Then, he said coldly. “A ragtag group like this intends to go against Planet Zi?!”
“No matter who comes today, Chu Kuangren must die!”
“Attack!”
As soon as the order to attack was given, the powerful cultivators from Planet Zi immediately flew out from their respective wars.h.i.+ps.
Countless powerful auras soon filled the sky above the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom.
“In that case, bring it on!”
Yang Xiao said indifferently. With the swing of his sword, a powerful sword aura erupted!
