The two sides faced off. On the other side, there were three to five immortal beings, while on the other side, there were two true immortal cultivators and several immortal artifacts.
It's unrealistic for either side to want to defeat the other; it would be very difficult to accomplish.
"Want to fight again?" Meng Tianzheng's eyes flashed with lightning, his fighting spirit undiminished.
This battle confirmed some things for him.
Despite the flawed environment of heaven and earth, they achieved immortality and were still no less than anyone else!
Give them time, and Meng Tianzheng believes they can withstand all the storms and forge a future for the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
"Kneel down and bind yourself, and when the Immortal King of my realm descends, your realm may be preserved."
"If you continue to resist stubbornly, then when the Heavenly Abyss is destroyed, everything in your realm will vanish into thin air!"
"The blood will stain every inch of the land, from the heavens to the earth."
"The Heavenly Desolate Halberd and Kunpeng have already died in battle. What can you, these two newly promoted True Immortals, do?"
“Ridiculous.” Meng Tianzheng shook his head. “If you want to fight, then fight. If you don’t want to fight, then don’t bark like a dog outside the imperial city.”
After saying that, Meng Tianzheng turned and left.
The battle is still undecided, but if it continues, he and Wang Changsheng will surely emerge victorious.
It's a pity I didn't get the chance to behead the immortal.
The immortal beings from other realms retreated, without attempting to storm the Imperial City or break through the Heavenly Abyss.
Even when Tianyuan was declining, they couldn't do it.
At this moment, two more True Immortals were born in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, sitting in the Primordial Imperial City and controlling the power of the Heavenly Abyss. There was no problem in stopping them.
Attacking the imperial city would be a waste of effort.
They were going to invite the Immortal King, the Immortal King Anlan, and the Immortal King Yutuo to the burial site to discuss some matters with the Burial King.
After receiving their report, I believe they will soon return and grace the frontier. But that is not enough.
The blood feud was as deep as the sea, and they still had to report to the other immortal kings.
As immortals, they are mostly born into imperial families, with the ancient ancestors being immortal kings.
Even those who are not born into an imperial family will have deep connections with some imperial families once they reach this stage.
The disappearance of numerous beings from other lands before their very eyes was something they could not accept.
We must break through Tianyuan with swift and decisive means, and destroy the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!
Of course, even if they were to report to the other immortal kings, they could only do so to those immortal kings who had participated in the war against the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Some immortal kings who have fallen into eternal slumber, or immortal kings of too high a status, are also unreachable.
“The next time they come, it will be with the Immortal King,” Tianhuangji said.
"As long as the city stands, we stand; if the city falls, we die," Meng Tianzheng said firmly, his physical injuries slowly healing.
“Anlan and Yutuo have probably gone to the burial site and will not be able to return for the time being. There is still some time.”
The Holy King's voice rang out. He was constantly watching the foreign land and had recently sensed the fleeting presence of An Lan and Yu Tuo.
The distance between the burial ground and the desolate borderlands of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was not particularly far for the Immortal King.
When two immortal kings travel together, they naturally make no attempt to conceal their presence.
After all, they were visiting the burial site openly and honestly, not sneaking in to cause damage, so there was no need for them to hide themselves.
"There's not much time left. These immortals should go back and report what happened today to An Lan and the others. The Immortal King will arrive soon," Yun Hua said.
"Anlan and the others won't give us much time."
It's completely impossible to have a development period of thousands or tens of thousands of years.
Even a month is considered enough time for the burial king to sleep soundly until he dies.
"Just how strong is the Immortal King?" Shi Hao asked this question.
He knew the Immortal King was very strong, and he had also witnessed some of the Holy King's divine power.
But he hadn't seen the king unleash his full power yet.
"You'll find out when the time comes." Yunhua didn't go into details with Shi Hao. Words always seem inadequate.
"It's so strong, it's impossible to resist," Meng Tianzheng sighed.
The Holy King appeared silently, his face solemn.
"If the Immortal King comes, we will hold them off."
"It's a pity that only a few of us are left. Tianyuan probably won't be able to hold on."
Tianyuan has never been an absolute defense.
Even if the Heavenly Abyss is not broken, beings from the Immortal Realm may still enter the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Otherwise, how could the great war at the end of the Immortal Era have broken out in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths?
The Heavenly Abyss is not ancient; it was formed when Yunhua shattered fragments of another realm during the great war at the end of the Immortal Ancient Era.
However, it was only the shattered fragments of the world mixed with the broken secret power of a quasi-immortal emperor that were able to stop the immortal king.
This thing will gradually be diluted and worn away by the chaotic currents of the Boundary Sea over time.
The Sea of Supreme Laws, which severs all connections, is closely related to the secret power of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor.
Only by borrowing the power of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor could Tianyuan become so powerful.
However, this thing is not insurmountable; it's just that bypassing the abyss is very troublesome, requires a long period of preparation, and comes at a great cost.
In the late Immortal Era, the alien realm accomplished this. Immortal Kings and Immortals descended upon the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, directly crippling the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
In this era, the alien realm had no intention of repeating the ancient practices of immortality.
The reason is unknown, after all, the kings of the foreign lands would not reveal such a thing.
Perhaps it was because the broken heavens and earth were not worth it for them to do this, or perhaps it was because they were missing something essential.
"Can't we ask the Immortal Realm for help?" Shi Hao asked. "Didn't we say we were on good terms with the Immortal Realm?"
"If they were willing to help, they would have sent their kings to the mortal realm back in the ancient times," the Holy King sighed.
In the ancient times of immortality, did anyone from the Immortal Realm descend to the mortal world to help the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths? Yes.
Compared to the strength of the alien invasion, the support was practically nonexistent.
Some people are still holding us back. For example, the remnant immortal of the Immortal Palace, Ao Ling, was once a true immortal.
Such a person was actually the commander of the Immortal Realm's support team at the end of the Immortal Ancient Era... Who would believe that?
Considering the role the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths once played in ensuring the stability of the Immortal Realm, the Immortal Realm's actions are indeed somewhat disheartening.
However, whether or not the kings help the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths is their own business, and they cannot be forced to help.
Chapter 1323 Can it withstand it?
After all, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and the Immortal Realm have never signed any treaty of mutual assistance or defense, nor have they been bound by the Great Dao.
There is only a long-standing tacit understanding that when one party is in trouble, whether to help or not, and to what extent, depends entirely on the other party's awareness.
The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are now even less qualified to negotiate with the Immortal Realm.
In the future, all talents will be incorporated into the Immortal Realm.
"In the end, you still have to rely on yourself." Yunhua patted Shi Hao on the shoulder.
He was still too young. Of course, it was also because Shi Hao was too worried about the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and wanted to find a way out for them.
"If things become unmanageable, I can send some of you away," the Holy King said.
"Go to the Immortal Realm. I have acquaintances there, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to accept a few people."
The ancient kings often visited the Immortal Realm to discuss metaphysics and Dao with the Immortal Kings, and they became friends.
While this relationship isn't enough for a Celestial King to sacrifice his life to support the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, it's certainly enough to help with a few small favors.
There are many reasons why the immortals are unwilling to descend to the mortal realm. One of them is that they do not want to come into contact with other realms and are afraid of being corrupted and falling into depravity.
Even if some Celestial Kings wanted to support the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, they had to consider the opinions of other Celestial Kings and ultimately had to remain silent for the sake of the overall stability of the Celestial Realm.
The Immortal Realm is not ruled by a single Immortal King; it is comprised of numerous factions.
In the Immortal Ancient Era, some Immortal Kings and some races originally came from the Immortal Realm, but later settled in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
The atmosphere of the Immortal Kings of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths is obviously better than that of the Immortal Realm, which is a more attractive point.
The Holy King looked at Shi Hao and said, "If the Imperial City is breached and Tianyuan is destroyed, you must leave."
"I will fight to the very last moment," Shi Hao said stubbornly, "to live and die with the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."
"You have hope as long as you live," the Holy King said sternly. "You are the most talented person in my seven clans since birth, and your future achievements will definitely surpass mine."
"You can't afford any accidents."
“It’s not hope for me to live alone,” Shi Hao retorted. “It’s hope for everyone to live together.”
How many Immortal Kings are there in the other realm? Five? Ten? Or more?
"Even if I grow stronger on my own, do you think I can stand up against all the Celestial Kings from other realms?"
Yunhua listened to Shi Hao's words and thought to herself.
You're underestimating yourself a bit, Haozai. Once you grow up, you really can...
"I will send your companions to the Immortal Realm as well," the Holy King said.
"You are still young, with unlimited possibilities for the future, and there is hope for the restoration of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."
"You are seeds, seeds of hope, seeds of inheritance, and we cannot lose you."
"A seed can't grow into a towering tree if it leaves the soil." Shi Hao was very stubborn.
"Alright, alright," Yunhua interrupted the two.
"That time hasn't come yet, it's too early to talk about these things."
"Fellow Daoist, if the other realms are serious, we truly cannot stop them," the Holy King said solemnly.
"Listen to me, trust me, we can hold them off." Yunhua nodded to the Holy King.
"It's really unstoppable."
"It can be blocked."
"Can't stop it."
"..." Yunhua sighed helplessly. Why was he so stubborn? They hadn't even fought yet, and he was already thinking about sending them away.
"If we can really hold them off, what's a few immortal kings?"
"If they come, I'll kill them all."
"Kill as many as they come!"
When news of the defeat at the border reached the foreign lands, the entire region was in an uproar. Public sentiment was outraged, and the whole world was in uproar.
Since the ancient era of immortals in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, there has been no war in the alien realm. When have they ever suffered such a great loss?
Countless people shouted that they would attack the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, slaughter that realm, and avenge the soldiers of their own realm.
Little did anyone expect that they were the invaders...
One by one, cultivators from other lands spontaneously rushed to the borderlands to protect their families—no, to invade other people's homes.
The immortals couldn't sit still any longer and descended upon the borderlands, wanting to find out the specifics.
Such a loss is extremely rare in a foreign land that has been at peace for so long. Even if they were all human beings, it is still no small matter.
From all over the world, one can see people bathed in divine light, radiant and dazzling like the sun, descending upon that foreign land.
These are immortal beings from another realm.
In the past, there were also immortals stationed in the borderlands of the alien realm, but there were usually only one or two of them.
The reason why there were three or five True Immortals when we confronted Meng Tianzheng and the others not long ago was because they had come here specifically recently.
"How's it going?"
