Perfection: The Eastern Emperor Bell manifests, I am the Golden Crow Heavenly Emperor

Chapter 40 Reinforcements from the Immortal Realm Arrive
Wu Shang remained calm and analyzed the situation.

"The Immortal Realm must have already received a request for reinforcements, but judging from their reaction, internal strife continues, and reinforcements will inevitably be slow and limited. This is a golden opportunity! Although our realm has suffered heavy losses, if we gather our remaining strength and launch a thunderous attack, we can inflict a fatal blow on the Ancient Realm before the main force of the Immortal Realm can react!"

The five giants quickly reached a consensus—to take advantage of the chaos!
This time, they are determined to seize the ancient artifact of origin and obtain the secret to breaking through the king and becoming an emperor!
We must tear open another bloody gash in the wounds already inflicted by the invasion of darkness in the Primordial Ancient Realm!
"Immediately assemble all available fighting forces!"

The Red King issued the order, his voice resolute and decisive.

"I and Wu Shang will personally lead the team, with Xue Sha and the Soul Master accompanying us! Fellow Daoist Kun Di will stay behind to oversee resources!"

"Target: Southern part of the Primal Ancient Realm, towards the direction of the Myriad Ravines! That area is where the Ancient Realm's defenses are relatively weak, and it's also close to several of its important life-giving sites!"

"The action must be swift and ruthless! Strike and retreat immediately, never linger! The primary objective is destruction, slaughter, and creating panic. If we can find clues about the Golden Crow brat's seclusion or his allies in the Ancient Realm, we should prioritize their strikes!"

One after another, commands filled with destructive intent emanated from the Dark Temple.

Although the war machine of the alien realm was severely damaged in the last great war, its foundation remains intact.

The remaining and replenished immortals and the Dark Legion were mobilized once again. Led by the Crimson King and Wushang, they silently bypassed the main battlefield and headed straight for the southern region of the Primordial Ancient Realm, the most vulnerable area, the Myriad Abyss, along a hidden chaotic path!

They chose an extremely cunning timing.

At this moment, the main force of the Ancient Realm is being held back by the dark creatures of the Boundary Sea in the northern Fallen Star Sea, the western Immortal Land, and the eastern Ancient Forest, among other major battlefields. The Immortal King Wuzhong and others are too exhausted to deal with the situation and have no energy to attend to anything else.

The reinforcements from the Immortal Realm are still on their way.

Meanwhile, the foreign lands seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Not long after the vanguard reinforcements of the Immortal Realm, led by Pan Wang and Hunyuan Immortal King, left the border of the Immortal Realm, this surprise force from another realm approached the already riddled southern boundary wall of the Primordial Ancient Realm like a ghost!
The Primal Ancient Realm, an ancient world that had just barely recovered from the trauma of the alien invasion, was instead struck by a fatal blow from behind before it could even receive the powerful assistance it had been hoping for!

Ahead lies the dark tiger of the Boundary Sea, behind lies the vicious wolf of another realm!
The real dead end has arrived!

The Immortal King Wuzhong, who was stationed in the Temple of Time and Space, noticed the alien army almost the instant it touched the southern boundary barrier. His expression instantly turned extremely ugly, and a deep sense of powerlessness and anger flashed in his eyes.

"Foreign lands...do you truly intend to commit such an act of annihilation?!"

He knew that the worst had happened.

The ancient realm is now caught in a deadly trap, attacked from both sides by two mortal enemies!

At this moment, Lu Xuan, who was in seclusion deep in the Golden Crow Ancestral Land of the Immortal Realm, suddenly felt a tremor in his mind, which was immersed in the deduction of the Great Dao.

Outside his own independent space-time, the majestic Fusang tree moves without wind, its branches and leaves rustling and scattering uneasy golden light across the sky.

Just as the southern boundary of the Primordial Ancient Realm was breached by the alien army, and the Immortal King Wuzhong was filled with despair—

"Buzz!"

In the northern part of the ancient realm, above the battlefield of the Fallen Star Sea, which was being eroded by the main force of darkness, the void was suddenly torn apart by a vast immortal realm Dao aura!

A white jade ship, entirely crafted from the white jade of the heavens, imprinted with the totems of all races of the immortal realm, and radiating dazzling immortal light, crashed through the dark matter like a sharp sword cleaving through the darkness and descended upon the battlefield!
On the ship, banners fluttered, and two figures stood at the forefront. They were none other than King Pan and King Hunyuan, who had come to provide support on behalf of the kings of the Immortal Realm!

Behind them were hundreds of elite warriors from various races of the Immortal Realm, each possessing a powerful aura and at least at the peak of True Immortal level!

"Fellow Daoist of the Ancient Realm! The Immortal Realm's reinforcements have arrived! Pan Wang (Hun Yuan) is here!" Two magnificent Immortal King divine thoughts, like thunderclaps, instantly spread throughout the chaotic Fallen Star Sea battlefield!

The True Dragon King, who had been struggling to hold on, was greatly encouraged and let out a thunderous dragon roar: "Fellow Daoist Panwang! Fellow Daoist Hunyuan! You've come at the perfect time!"

Meanwhile, the Eclipse Immortal King, who was locked in a fierce battle with the True Dragon King and constantly eroding the star remains, let out a furious roar, and countless dark tentacles danced wildly, clearly extremely dissatisfied with this sudden change.

"Form the array! Purify the darkness!"

Pan Wang didn't hesitate at all and made his move immediately!
The immortal peach tree above his head appeared, its lotus leaves swaying and scattering endless clear light!
This radiance was not an attack, but rather contained the most primordial power of order and the principles of purification of the Immortal Realm. Like warm sunlight falling on the frozen earth, wherever it passed, the dark matter seemed to have encountered its nemesis, emitting hissing sounds as it quickly melted and dispersed!
Although it cannot instantly purify beings like the World-Eroding Immortal King, it has an immediate and effective restraining effect on ordinary dark creatures and the pervasive dark aura!
Immediately, the Dark Legion's offensive stalled, and many low-level dark creatures turned to ashes in the radiant light!

"Hahaha! That's satisfying! Watch me smash this rotten star into pieces!"

The Primordial Immortal King let out a wild laugh.

Locking directly onto the Eclipse Immortal King, the giant axe in his hand unleashed a terrifying sharpness that could tear apart galaxies, and he slashed down fiercely at the king's body!
"Roar! Damn it, you're asking for it!"

The Eclipse Immortal King roared, forced to devote most of his energy to gathering dark tentacles and disintegrating rays to meet the Hunyuan Immortal King's giant axe.

"boom--!"

The giant axe clashed with the dark power once more, and the resulting shockwave pulverized countless surrounding stellar debris into dust!

With the addition of Pan Wang and Hunyuan Immortal King, especially Pan Wang's purifying power, the Dark Legion was able to suppress the group.

The previously precarious battlefront of the Fallen Star Sea has finally stabilized temporarily!

With the pressure on the True Dragon King greatly reduced, his dragon breath became even more ferocious. He joined forces with the Primordial Immortal King and began to suppress the Eclipse Immortal King in reverse!
At the same time, the accompanying elites of the Immortal Realm also formed ranks and charged into the battlefield. Their supernatural powers and magical treasures mostly possessed attributes of light, order, and purification, which caused extra damage to dark creatures, and they immediately gained an advantage in the local battlefield.

While maintaining control of the battlefield, Pan Wang scanned other directions with his divine sense, his expression growing increasingly solemn.

He sensed the extreme desolation of the west and the drastic depletion of life in the ancient forests of the east.

And... a familiar yet repulsive fluctuation emanating from the southern boundary wall, belonging to another realm!

"So the aliens have come too! These despicable scoundrels!"

Pan Wang cursed inwardly and immediately sent a message to Wu Zhong Immortal King.

"Fellow Daoist Wuzhong! We have arrived in the Northern Territory and have temporarily stabilized the situation! We are aware of the situation in the Southern Foreign Lands and must find a way to deal with it as soon as possible!"

Inside the Temple of Time and Space, the Immortal King Wuzhong felt a slight relief as the pressure on the northern front eased, but the invasion from the southern alien realms felt like a thorn in his side.

He immediately replied, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Panwang! Fellow Daoist Samsara and I will try to contain the Southern Alien Region. Please be sure to hold off the main force of the Northern Darkness!"

The arrival of the vanguard reinforcements from the Immortal Realm relieved the immense pressure on the Ancient Realm, providing a much-needed respite and boosting the already crumbling morale of the Ancient Realm Allied Forces!
However, everyone understood that this was just the beginning.

The main force of the Dark Boundary Sea has not retreated, and the venomous fangs of the alien realm have arrived. The real test is far from over.
