The Great Overlord: Simulating the Future, Dominating Speedrunning

Chapter 211 Hurry back to the Western Paradise and invite the Western Paradise War Emperor!

"The Heavenly Net Alliance?!"

Blood Spirit wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his crimson pupils contracting sharply. "My Blood God Clan has no grudge against you..."

"No injustice or enmity?"

A cold glint flashed in Mu Chen's eyes, and the sacred spear in his hand rang out with a deafening clang: "From the moment you touched Luo Li—"

"It's already a fight to the death!"

boom!
Mu Chen unleashed a spear strike, and a purple-gold avatar hundreds of feet tall appeared behind him. The golden spear light tore through the sky, and five immortal divine runes wrapped around it, transforming into a dazzling immortal golden dragon that shot towards Xue Lingzi.

"Jie Jie Jie..."

The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects cackled, his withered finger pointing into the air. Five spirit insects shot out from his sleeves, growing larger and larger in the wind, transforming into enormous creatures thousands of feet in size, and each pounced on the five Blood God Clan elders not far away.

The five spirit insects were of different shapes, resembling spirit spiders, white snakes, jade cicadas, and so on, but all of them exuded a terrifying aura at the level of Earthly Sovereign, causing the five Blood God Clan elders to change their expressions drastically.

"Ah! This is... the Tail-Eating Serpent!"

An elder screamed in terror as he was swallowed whole by the white snake-shaped spirit insect, instantly becoming its food.

"Run!"

"That old guy is at least a mid-level spirit insect master!"

The other four lower-level Earthly Sovereign elders turned pale, disregarding the depletion of their own essence and blood, their bodies ignited with dark red flames, and they transformed into streaks of blood-red light, fleeing into the distance.

"Can you leave?"

Emperor Xia chuckled lightly, stood with his hands behind his back, and a vast golden spiritual energy roared in from behind him, gathering into a colossal avatar thousands of feet long.

The Dharma body was entirely gilded, wearing a twelve-tassel crown and a black imperial robe with dragon patterns. Nine illusory bronze cauldrons were wrapped around its body, each cauldron engraved with ancient inscriptions, radiating a terrifying pressure that suppressed heaven and earth!
The Dharma Body of the Son of Heaven!

boom!
The Emperor's Dharma Body's eyes erupted with a dazzling golden light, his imperial robes fluttered without wind, and nine bronze cauldrons gradually solidified, shooting out and transforming into a massive Nine Cauldrons Array that enveloped the void.

"puff!"

An elder crashed into the light barrier of the array and was instantly thrown back, coughing up blood.

"Tianluo Alliance, do you really intend to exterminate us all?!"

Blood Spirit Child's eyes were bloodshot, his hair and beard stood on end in anger, his blood robes ripped apart, and his terrifying spiritual power at the peak of the Upper Earthly Sovereign level erupted, transforming into a phantom of a ten-thousand-foot-long sea of ​​blood behind him.

He stared at the battlefield with bloodshot eyes. Among the five elders, the Devouring Serpent was chewing on the body of the second elder, while the remaining three were trapped by the Nine Cauldrons Formation and were struggling to hold on under the attack of the four spirit insects.

You must know that the Blood God Clan only has six Earthly Sovereign level experts in total. This is the foundation that the Blood God Clan has accumulated over thousands of years!

"Kuao noise!"

Emperor Xia's face was icy cold. His imperial avatar pressed down with a palm, the golden giant palm carrying the power of the Nine Cauldrons crashing down. The three Blood God Clan elders didn't even have time to scream before they were transformed into a sky full of blood mist amidst the dazzling golden light.

"Clan leader, run! That's a powerful expert at the Great Perfection of the Earthly Sovereign level!"

Finally, the red-robed elder, with a resolute look in his eyes, actually took the initiative to grab the Devouring Tail Serpent. His entire body surged with spiritual power, his skin cracked inch by inch, and dazzling blood light burst forth from his body.

"boom--!"

In the earth-shattering shockwave of the self-destruction, the Devouring Serpent was blasted back thousands of feet, and a torrent of crimson light engulfed the entire sky. The blinding scarlet obscured everyone's vision.

"Whoosh—"

Taking advantage of the moment, Xue Lingzi bit his tongue, spitting a mouthful of blood essence into his palm, instantly forming an ancient blood seal. His body suddenly disintegrated, transforming into thousands of scarlet blood threads, shooting out in all directions like a torrential rain. Each blood thread contained his life essence; as long as even one thread escaped, he could be reborn.

"Trying to pull off a clever escape?"

The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects chuckled, his withered fingers plucking a translucent jade toad from his sleeve. The toad, no bigger than a thumb, swelled in size the instant it left his hand—

"boom!"

Suddenly, a massive, icy toad appeared between heaven and earth. Its entire body was as if sculpted from ten thousand years of black ice, its eyes were like sapphires, and icy blue patterns flowed within its transparent body, exuding a terrifying aura of a supreme being at the Great Perfection of Earth.

"Goo-"

The jade toad's swollen abdomen suddenly contracted, and a burst of icy blue cold air shot out. Wherever it passed, all the blood-red threads in the sky froze, turning into countless crystalline blood-red ice threads that hovered in mid-air.

"Ah-"

Then, the Jade Toad opened its mouth and spat out a shower of ice silk, which was swept into its mouth by its long tongue. As the enormous, black hole-like maw closed, the desperate roar of the Blood Spirit could be faintly heard.

With a flick of his sleeve, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects caused the Jade Toad that blotted out the sky to shrink instantly, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into his sleeve.

Sensing the intent transmitted by his natal spirit insect, he said with a smile, "The essence blood of a peak-level Earthly Sovereign is a rare and highly nourishing substance for Little Toad."

"This trip was definitely worthwhile."

Seeing this, Emperor Xia couldn't help but twitch his lips. Although he didn't say anything, he subconsciously moved a little further away from the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects.

Meanwhile, in the city of Luoshen.

Seeing the three figures suddenly appear, they quickly annihilated all the Earthly Sovereigns of the Blood God Clan.

Luo Tianshen, the patriarch of the Luo Shen clan, stared blankly at the three figures in the sky that resembled both gods and demons, his Adam's apple bobbing with difficulty.

"Tianluo Alliance..."

Luo Tianshen's voice was hoarse as the name that had recently become famous throughout the world flashed through his mind. He had originally thought it was just a rising power, but he hadn't expected...

"Chief Luo."

Just then, a clear voice suddenly rang in my ears.

Luo Tianshen was startled to find a tall, slender figure standing outside the Luohe Grand Formation, bowing with clasped hands.

"This junior, Mu Chen, has come to relieve the crisis of the Luo Shen Clan on the orders of the Tianluo Alliance Leader."

Mu Chen's voice was soft, yet it sent a shiver down Luo Tianshen's spine. The old man's cloudy eyes suddenly widened, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Mu Chen, Emperor Xia, and the Ten Thousand Insect Ancestor who was teasing the spirit insects not far away.

The Heavenly Luo Alliance actually sent two powerful experts at the Great Perfection of Earthly Sovereign to help the Luo Shen Clan overcome the crisis.
What merit or ability does the Luo Shen clan possess...?

Luo Tianshen suddenly felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He had managed the Luo Shen clan for thousands of years and knew all too well that only a true Heavenly Sovereign could command such a powerful being to submit to him!
His Luo Shen clan has no value that would be valued by a Heavenly Sovereign!

"Mu Chen..."

At that moment, a soft call broke the heavy atmosphere.

Luo Li stared blankly at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure, her glass-like eyes trembling slightly. Her slender fingers unconsciously tightened their grip on the Luo Shen Sword, her fingertips turning white from the force.

Three years.

The boy who once stood beside her on the Spirit Road has now shed his naivety and become someone she needs to look up to.

But the moment he looked over, Luo Li clearly saw that the tenderness of that boy from back then was still hidden in those deep eyes.

"Luo Li..."

Mu Chen gazed tenderly at the girl, his eyes filled with undisguised longing and heartache. He slowly stepped forward, wanting to embrace her.

At this moment, the elder in Luoshen City who was in charge of the formation wisely removed the Luohe Grand Formation, allowing the two lovers to reunite.

"Crash!"

The river flowed like stardust, the Luo River Formation slowly dissipated, and starlight fell gently like a curtain of water. Mu Chen walked on the starlight, each step stirring up tiny ripples of starlight.

Luo Li stared blankly at the figure walking towards her on starlight, the Luo Shen Sword in her hand clattering to the ground on the riverbank. Mu Chen stopped three steps away from her, looking at the girl's pale face and the unhealed bloodstains on her skin, and said in a trembling voice, "I'm sorry... I'm late."

A tear slid down Luo Li's cheek, and she instantly threw herself into Mu Chen's arms, the two embracing tightly.

Above, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects watched this scene and couldn't help but click his tongue: "Youth is truly wonderful..."

"Back when I was this age, I was still playing with insects..."

On the city wall, Luo Tianshen gazed at the two embracing, his eyes swirling with complex emotions, which finally turned into a long sigh.

Luo Li, your judgment is indeed better than your grandfather's. The future of the Luo Shen Clan depends on you.

……

Soon after,

In the center of the Luoshen Clan's city stands a series of magnificent palaces, exuding an aura of nobility and inviolability. This is the Luoshen Palace, the residence of the Luoshen Clan's royal family.

At this moment, inside a magnificent palace.

Luo Li sat in the head seat, her long white dress trailing on the ground. Although she had not yet experienced the Luo Shen Festival, the pressure emanating from her body was no less than that of a Ninth Grade Perfect Supreme.

To her left, Luo Tianshen gazed at his granddaughter with satisfaction. Though the old man had taken a backseat, his eyes were filled with pride.

Mu Chen sat on the right, with the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects and Emperor Xia behind him.

"The Heavenly Net Alliance has shown us such great kindness..."

Luo Tianshen's voice was hoarse as he was about to rise and bow.

"Chief Luo, there's no need for that."

Emperor Xia raised his hand to stop him, and with a swirling light at his fingertips, he supported the old man's body. "Our Tianluo Alliance has come here on the orders of our Alliance Leader to help the Luoshen Clan overcome this calamity."

"If you want to thank someone, you should thank young friend Mu Chen. It was he who pleaded for your Luo Shen Clan before the Alliance Leader."

Upon hearing this, Luo Tianshen's aged face showed deep gratitude. He turned tremblingly to Mu Chen, about to speak, when suddenly—

boom!
The entire hall trembled violently, and an immense, abyss-like pressure descended from the sky. The sky outside the hall suddenly turned icy cold, and snow began to fall.

Snowflakes drifted down from the sky, swirling into the main hall and eventually coalescing into an old man clad in a white robe. His hair and beard were completely white, his face gaunt, and he stared expressionlessly at the people inside the hall.

He spoke in a hoarse voice, "Has the Heavenly Net Alliance overstepped its bounds?"

"Such blatant interference in the internal struggles of my Western Heaven Continent is perhaps somewhat inconsistent with the rules set by my Western Heaven War Hall."

"The three of you, do you owe me, the Western Heaven Battle Hall, an explanation?"

The old man's hoarse voice echoed within the hall, and a biting chill swept in, freezing the floor of the hall into fine ice patterns.

Luo Tianshen's expression suddenly changed, and he said urgently, "Elder Dong, please forgive them. They are honored guests invited by my Luo Shen clan and are unfamiliar with the customs of the Western Heaven Continent. Could you please forgive them..."

"Shut up!"

With a flick of his sleeve, the old man struck Luo Tianshen as if by lightning, causing him to stagger back several steps. “The rules of the Western Heaven Battle Hall are none of your business to explain.”

"The Western Continent is the territory of the War Emperor. Normally we do not concern ourselves with the conquests of the various forces within our territory, but it is not up to outsiders to interfere."

"The Heavenly Net Alliance has overstepped its bounds!"

"Hehe, you're wrong about that. Mu Chen is the son-in-law of the Luo Shen Clan. What's wrong with a son-in-law standing up for his in-laws?"

Suddenly, the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects chuckled, squeezed the jade toad in his hand, and said with a grin.

The white-robed old man, known as "Old Man Winter," took a deep look at the jade toad in the hand of the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects, then smiled and said in a kind tone, "Since that's the case, then so be it."

"However, I have come here not only to hold someone accountable, but also to receive a decree from His Majesty the War Emperor."

As he spoke, the old man of winter smiled, then slowly reached into his sleeve and took out a gilded scroll.

He calmly unfurled the golden scroll, and instantly a vast and powerful pressure swept through the hall. The War Emperor's Seal on the scroll shone with golden light, actually condensing into a golden throne phantom in mid-air.

"By order of the War Emperor!"

The old man's voice suddenly became loud and clear, like a bell, each word resonating with the heavens and earth, "I hereby confer upon Luo Li, the Empress of the Luo Clan, the Fifth Holy Maiden of the Western Heaven Battle Palace!"

The old man in white robes' voice echoed in the hall, but the atmosphere inside suddenly froze.

Luo Tianshen's aged face instantly lost its color, and his withered fingers gripped the armrest tightly, cracking the hard black jade.

Mu Chen's pupils shrank suddenly, and a purple-gold illusory body appeared behind him. Countless ancient divine runes lit up uncontrollably, emitting terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations.

The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects and the Xia Emperor exchanged a glance, both seeing solemnity in each other's eyes. The jade toad in the former's sleeve throbbed uneasily, while the latter frowned slightly—they both understood what the Western Heaven War Emperor's so-called "Holy Maiden" truly meant.

"What a magnificent Western Heaven Battle Hall!"

The Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects suddenly let out a strange laugh, his withered fingers stroking the jade toad as he said disdainfully, "Is this an attempt to rob us outright?"

"How old is the Western Heaven War Emperor?"

"Rob a young woman in her early twenties?"

"Aren't you ashamed!"

The jade toad in the sleeve of the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Insects suddenly swelled up, emitting a deafening croak. Still not satisfied, he snorted coldly and said, "A dignified Heavenly Sovereign would actually do such a despicable thing?"

The white-robed old man's face was ashen: "Insolence! His Majesty the War Emperor accepting Luo Li as his personal disciple is an immense stroke of good fortune!"

"How dare you slander me like this!"

"Fortune?" Emperor Xia finally spoke, his expression serious. "Who doesn't know what became of the Holy Maiden of the Western Heaven War Emperor in the end?"

"It's nothing more than a furnace."

"Your War Emperor has an order, and so does our Alliance Leader!"

"Don't go too far!"

Having said that, Emperor Xia flicked his sleeve and took out a gilded invitation from his robes.

The moment the golden scroll appeared, the spiritual energy of the entire hall suddenly surged, and six-colored flames flowed across the surface of the scroll, vaguely condensing into a blooming fire lotus.

"The Heavenly Net Alliance Leader's decree is here!"

The Xia Emperor's voice boomed like a bell as he slowly unfurled the golden scroll in his hand. Instantly, a vast and powerful pressure swept out, forcing the white-robed old man back three steps.

The post contained only six simple characters, yet each character carried the might of heaven:

"I'll protect the Luo Shen Clan!"

These six simple and direct words convey an indescribable air of dominance.

"This is……"

The white-robed elder's pupils contracted, and for the first time, a look of shock appeared on his face. He clearly sensed that this decree contained the true power of a Celestial Supreme Being!
The Xia Emperor coldly stared at the other party: "Now, you can go back and tell the Western Heaven War Emperor—"

"The Luo Shen Clan, we, the Tianluo Alliance, are determined to protect them!"

"If it's war, the Tianluo Alliance will fight to the bitter end!"
