Battle Through the Heavens: The Holy Sun Immortal Venerable

Chapter 137 The War of Overthrow

According to Xue Mei, Stone Spirit City was breached by the powerful forces of the Fallen Goose Empire about a week ago. However, the Fallen Goose Empire did not make a fuss about it, but simply took control of the entire Stone Spirit City and fished out the enemy.

They not only plundered the resources of Stone Spirit City, but also impersonated the city's garrison, shouting to the royal family about the urgency of the front lines and requesting resource assistance.

They seized a large amount of resources and, using Stone Spirit City as a gateway, began to send spies deep into the heart of the Gama Empire. Almost all the Gama Empire people who entered Stone Spirit City were either killed or restricted by them.

Xue Mei's teacher, Frank, a fourth-grade alchemist, was one such example.

"According to what you said, Frank should already be dead at the hands of that Battle King." Lin Ran shook his head: "A fourth-grade alchemist, if he were to survive by chance, would bring them a lot of trouble. They would never leave him alive."

"Of course, since you are a member of my Holy Sect, I will naturally help you with your request. We will go to Stone Spirit City later."

"Thank you so much, my lord! Thank you so much, my lord!" Xue Mei was moved to tears, her expression excited.

"Still calling me 'sir'?"

"Thank you... Sect Master!"

"Sister Xue Mei, who exactly is this person...?" Yao Yue, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't help but interrupt the conversation between the two, looking at Lin Ran with curiosity.

Such formidable strength, handsome face, calm demeanor and temperament—in all her years, no one had ever been able to match Lin Ran's appearance, which truly aroused Yao Yue's curiosity.

"Wait... Lin Ran?!"

The old woman beside her seemed to notice something, and then suddenly exclaimed in surprise, her voice rising abruptly!

Her eyes swept back and forth between the former with suspicion and uncertainty. As one of the Dou Wang powerhouses of the Jia Ma Empire's royal family, she was of course aware of everything that had happened on the summit of Yunlan.

They paid special attention to learning more about Lin Ran, who claimed to be the "true self" who suppressed everyone, and of course, they also learned his name.

"Your Excellency... are you Venerable Lin from the summit of Yunlan?!" The old woman asked cautiously in a low voice, her voice trembling with disbelief.

"I prefer you to call me Sect Master Lin, or Venerable Saint Yang."

Lin Ran smiled and nodded.

Upon receiving Lin Ran's acknowledgment, the old woman was utterly shocked, while Yao Yue stared at Lin Ran with her mouth agape, her face filled with disbelief.

Venerable One?!

A Dou Zun?!

This guy who looks about the same age as me is actually the Dou Zun powerhouse from the Yunlan Sect who single-handedly suppressed a Dou Zong powerhouse?!

"I never expected to see you here... Sect Leader Lin, are you here to assist us in resisting the invasion of foreign enemies?"

The old woman looked at Lin Ran with hopeful eyes. If she could have Lin Ran's help, what would the Three Kingdoms Alliance be?

This is a Dou Zun powerhouse!

The reason why the three-nation alliance was able to defeat the Gama Empire to the point of being unable to raise its head is not because of the strength of their three nations or the quality of their armies.

The biggest factor is that each of the three kingdoms has a fighter with the strength of a Dou Zong!

Yan Luotian, the sect leader of the Golden Goose Sect, is a true Dou Zong powerhouse.

The three elders of the Mulan Empire, through the Three Beasts Savage Technique, also possessed the combat power of a Dou Zong.

Although the Izumo Empire has not yet revealed any Dou Zong-level experts, the trouble caused by the Izumo Poison Masters is far greater than that caused by the other two great empires combined. Not to mention, there are also Dou Zong-level experts within the Izumo Empire itself.

And what about the Gama Empire?

The strongest at the front line was Jia Xingtian, who was at the peak of the Douhuang realm, plus a sixth-order magical beast that, although at the peak of the Douhuang realm, was covered in hidden injuries and was very old.

This disparity in peak strength is the reason why the Gama Empire is now suffering repeated defeats.

In this situation, if Lin Ran, a Dou Zun expert, were willing to take action, the situation would be reversed in an instant!

A Dou Zun-level being is practically a dimensional reduction attack on the battlefield right now!

"To assist you in resisting foreign invasion..." Lin Ran said with a smile, "That's not wrong. Judging by the time, I will join the battlefield tomorrow."

"Tomorrow? That's great!"

Upon hearing this, Yaoyue was overjoyed: "With your help, Grandpa won't be under so much pressure! After this war is over, I will definitely ask Grandpa to give you a proper reward!"

Lin Ran smiled faintly, while the old woman beside him looked helpless.

They're all at the Dou Zun level, why would they care about the titles and rewards from your Jia Ma Empire?

"Sect Leader Lin, the battlefield situation is chaotic. His Majesty the Emperor has fought against Yan Luotian several times, and each time he has been defeated. The people of the three kingdoms are constantly launching offensives with the help of the Dou Zong powerhouse, which has greatly increased the pressure on the Black Mountain Fortress. Other border war zones are also falling one after another because of the interconnectedness of the situation. For example, the Stone Spirit City that Miss Xue Mei mentioned earlier has already become a hunting ground for the Luo Yan Empire."

The old woman, her face full of worry, recounted the situation at the front lines, then looked at Lin Ran with hopeful eyes: "Since Sect Leader Lin has decided to officially join the occupation tomorrow, I wonder if you could assist us a little today... Leaving aside the distant future, could you at least help us recapture these surrounding cities?"

"The matter of Stone Spirit City definitely needs to be dealt with, as it is a matter within my sect. As for the others..."

Lin Ran spoke calmly, then turned to look at Zi Yan: "Do you have any ideas?"

Both Yaoyue and the old woman were taken aback by Lin Ran's actions.

This little girl seems quite strong, capable of taking down a Dou Wang expert with a single punch, but her adorable appearance is rather intimidating. Letting her influence a war...

"Sure, I'm a bit bored anyway, whatever you say, bro."

"You little rascal." Lin Ran shook his head helplessly and patted Zi Yan's head. "How about this, you take Xue Mei and take care of Shi Ling City first. When Yun'er arrives tomorrow, you can take her with you and join the battle."

"Okay, okay!" Ziyan nodded.

Yun'er?

The unusual address startled both Yaoyue and the old woman. As if they had thought of something, the old woman's face froze, filled with disbelief, while a deep worry appeared in her eyes.

"It shouldn't be... right..."

"If it really is Yun Yun... and the Yunlan Sect is actually connected to a Dou Zun powerhouse, then the Jia Ma royal family is truly on the verge of collapse..."

"You two aren't here to participate in the frontline battles, are you?" Lin Ran looked at Yao Yue.

It's understandable that this old woman, a Dou Wang level expert, came to the front line, but what is this royal princess, Yao Yue, doing here?

Are you here for sightseeing?

The blunt gaze made Yao Yue feel somewhat embarrassed and annoyed. With her spoiled young lady temperament, when had she ever been looked at like that?

If this were in the capital, this spoiled and willful young lady would probably have her servants gouge out Lin Ran's eyes!

However, it was clear that the Battle King of the Fallen Goose Empire had frightened this young lady quite a bit. In addition, with Lin Ran's formidable strength and status, this young lady, though willful and capricious, was not without brains.

Yao Yue hesitated for a moment, then looked up and said.

"My sister originally wanted me to go to Canaan Academy, but with the situation on the front lines so tense, as a member of the Jagma royal family, I've changed my mind!"

Yao Yue looked at Lin Ran with a determined expression: "I want to go to Black Mountain Fortress to help Grandpa! Can you take us there?"

Black Mountain Fortress?

A look of surprise flashed in Lin Ran's eyes as he looked at Yao Yue in front of him and suddenly understood something.

This little girl is plotting against him!

"Very well, since you have this intention, how could I refuse?" Lin Ran smiled calmly, "After Zi Yan helps Xue Mei resolve the matter of Stone Spirit City, let's set off for Black Mountain Fortress."

"Thank you, Sect Leader Lin!"

……

Black Mountain Fortress, located on the northeastern border of the Gama Empire, is the most magnificent fortress in the area. It has stood for over a hundred years since its construction, and has survived several major battles without leaving many traces on this massive fortress, which shows how formidable its sturdiness is.

Today, the Black Mountain Fortress has become one of the most intense battlegrounds between the Gama Empire and the three kingdoms. Several key battles that could almost determine the outcome of the war have broken out here!

Taking advantage of the terrain, Jia Xingtian, with his peak Douhuang strength, repeatedly kept the three-nation allied forces at the edge of the Black Mountain Fortress.

However, everyone knew that such a defense could not last long. The reason why the Black Mountain Fortress was able to hold out for so long was not the defensive capabilities of Jiaxingtian and the Jiama Empire.

It's because the distribution of interests among the three countries has not yet been fully agreed upon!

However, as time passed and news of Yun Yun's breakthrough to the Dou Zong realm spread, the Three Kingdoms seemed to have little time left to consider the distribution of benefits; they wanted to secure this prize first!

Without a doubt, a battle more thrilling than any before is about to unfold.

Countless eyes were focused on this, because everyone knew that if Jia Xingtian could withstand the combined attack of the three elders from the Golden Goose Sect, Luo Yantian, and Mulan Valley, then the Jia Ma Empire would be able to gain a chance to breathe. But if it failed... then the Jia Ma Empire would be wiped off this map!

But how could they possibly not be defeated?

Those are two Dou Zong powerhouses, while Jia Xingtian is only at the peak of Dou Huang. A peak Dou Huang can only withstand one Dou Zong at most, let alone two Dou Zongs!

This battle will determine the fate of the Gama Empire, but in everyone's heart, there is only despair.

On the endless plain, two extremely majestic mountain ranges rise into the sky. These towering mountains are so high that ordinary people cannot climb them. In the gap between the two mountain ranges, an enormous fortress stands guard, like a prehistoric beast, protecting the main road leading out of the Gama Empire.

This fortress is the most important line of defense in the hearts of the people of the Gama Empire. If this line of defense is torn apart, then the Gama Empire will be able to drive straight in under the iron cavalry of the three great empires!

The fortress was enormous, forged entirely from jet-black volcanic rock, possessing an exceptionally formidable sturdiness.

This kind of city wall can withstand attacks from even a Dou Huang level expert for a long time.

On the city walls, countless troops could be seen everywhere, and there were even numerous huge crossbow carts. The crossbow carts were already equipped with steel arrows as thick as a man's thigh, ready to unleash their astonishing power at any moment. Under the defense of these countless troops, this defensive line was as solid as a rock. Even if the alliance of the three great empires wanted to forcefully break through, they would have to pay a bloody price to tear it apart!

At the center of the city wall, a dozen figures with immense prestige in the empire stood there, their gazes fixed on the distant horizon beyond the fortress with a hint of worry.

There.

The densely packed army stretched out like a dark cloud, seemingly without end. Judging from the huge banners raised among the troops, it was clearly the allied army of the three great empires.

Of course, what worries them most is not these ordinary troops, but the powerful figures hidden among them. In the eyes of true powerhouses, ordinary troops are not much of a threat. As long as there is a Dou Wang powerhouse, he can easily resist an army of ten thousand. This is why the powerful have a status that surpasses that of the king on the continent!

In the Dou Qi Continent, the strong reign supreme, and royal power comes second!

and so.

This seemingly grand war was actually determined by the battle between powerful figures like Jia Xingtian.

"The news of Yun Yun's breakthrough to the Dou Zong realm has already spread. Luo Yantian of the Golden Goose Sect and the three elders of Mulan Valley are probably already impatient and will likely launch a full-scale attack today."

Hai Bodong's expression was extremely solemn. He gazed into the distance for a moment, then slowly turned his gaze to Jia Xingtian beside him: "Old monster, this time, we're probably really in big trouble."

"Furthermore, Yun Yun has already resolved the matter with the Snake-People, and there are no longer any traces of them in the Tagor Desert. What's next for you...?"

"I know……"

Jia Xingtian gazed at the densely packed armies of the Three Kingdoms in the distance, his cloudy eyes filled with an inscrutable expression. After a long while, he finally let out a sigh.

Yun Yun has resolved the snake problem and dealt with Medusa, which means that after this battle, regardless of the outcome, the Tagama royal family will cease to exist.

To be honest, Jia Xingtian really wanted to quit, but he couldn't.

The royal family isn't just his; for one thing, he also has two granddaughters.

He needs to give them an explanation.

"Sect Master Yun will arrive today. As long as we hold out until Sect Master Yun arrives, we can still have an explanation for this battle," said Nalan Jie, who had already recovered from the poison and regained his Dou Wang strength.

He was already on the side of the Yunlan Sect, and he didn't care about the future of the royal family. In fact, the current situation was exactly what he wanted to see.

If Yunlan Sect truly gains control of the Jia Ma Empire in the future, then Nalan Yanran, as the young sect leader of Yunlan Sect, will become the empress of this empire!

Then the Nalan family will leap over the dragon gate and transform from a cocoon into a butterfly!

However, the future is always the future. If we cannot even resolve the current situation, then everything is in vain.

at the moment.

They have to hold on, at least until Yunyun arrives!
