"..."

The elders in the ancestral temple looked at each other, understood, and said nothing more; they all agreed with the elders' views.

"Such a momentous opportunity, Ancestor, perhaps... the time has come..."

"You mean, to recreate the Heavenly Court?"

Upon hearing this, even Ji Yunyu's usually calm eyes couldn't help but show a hint of emotion.

Mythical Heavenly Court.

The most powerful lineage on the ancient star that gave birth to all of humanity was destroyed by the ancestors of the Immortal Race in the ancient war of the Immortal Realm. Countless human powerhouses perished, the Heavenly Court was destroyed, and humanity was scattered to various places. Some were scattered in the Immortal Realm, some in the forbidden zones of life, and some drifted to the edge of the universe.

The Human King Clan originally had eight bloodlines, which were the most primordial human bloodlines, namely the Lu Jin bloodlines. Unfortunately, after the great war, all the human race's ultimate Dao Lords perished, and even the most precious Lu Jin bloodline was not passed down, leaving only the eight branches of the Human King Clan to eke out a living.

Over the years, the Ji clan swept away the seven clans, ascended to the top, and became the only royal clan of the human kings. Several members of the bloodline of the dead were also born. Among the five sages, the first three were, and Ji Yunyu was the third.

"The Heavenly Court..."

When Ji Yunyu mentioned this word, his expression was quite solemn, and he gave a self-deprecating bitter smile:

"Do people like us really have the right to carry the banner of humanity? We'll just be wiped out by the immortals once again."

"Ancestor, you...!"

Several elderly Supreme Dao Lords in the ancestral temple were heartbroken, their eyes wide with disbelief. They never expected the Great Sage to be so dejected.

"Do we really have no chance of winning against the Immortal Clan?!"

Someone asked in a trembling voice, their voice filled with fear, their facial muscles stiff.

"No."

Ji Yunyu said calmly, as if he had expected this.

He could clearly see that his own strength was inferior to Jiang Mo's, while Jiang Mo had been driven into a desperate situation by the King of the Immortal Clan, and his fate was unknown.

Even if he were to rise up with his entire clan, gather the Daoist traditions from all over the land to join him, and establish a Heavenly Court, what then? At most, it would only prolong the stalemate. The most powerful 'Emperor' in the history of the Immortal Clan has not yet appeared, and they have no chance of winning at all.

"Then we..."

"Go down first."

Before the man could finish speaking, Ji Yunyu waved his hand, signaling the elders to step down.

"Yes."

Seeing that the patriarch seemed to have something on his mind and needed to think quietly, the elderly Daoists hurriedly left.

.........

Meanwhile, in Feixian County, inside a magnificent palace, the reincarnated body that had secretly ascended long ago sat in the hall, gazing at the distant scenery.

"Young friend, who is making that move?!"

The Flying Immortal Master looked astonished. He had also noticed the enormous hand in the sky that blotted out the sun. It was too domineering, directly turning the tide of battle, killing the Immortal King in one strike, and saving three beings at the extreme realm.

“An old man is hiding in our ranks. I really don’t know anyone else who has this ability.”

Jiang Mo's reincarnated form smiled slightly, without revealing the person's true identity.

"Everyone outside thinks you're dead. The great war between the Immortal Clan and the Four Realms is imminent. Don't you really want to go out for a walk?"

The Ancient Sword Grass frowned and asked, believing that at this time, the best decision would be for Jiang Mo to directly reveal himself to the world, rally the ultimate beings from all over the world, and launch a decisive attack on the Northern Divine Realm of the Immortal Clan.

"No."

The reincarnated being chuckled softly and addressed the familiar faces in the hall, frankly stating:

"My body possesses combat power similar to that of my original self, but it is only similar, not equal. Now that I am controlling this reincarnated body to attack the Immortal Clan, I am not confident of victory. If anything unexpected happens along the way, you and even Tianyuan will perish."

"Perfect. I can use the Immortal Clan to filter out some unsettling lineages. Since they've become opportunists, I have a reason to deal with them and thus deter the other lineages."

"Dealing with the entire Immortal Clan is still very difficult for me, but I am absolutely confident in dealing with any one of the four Dao lineages."

As they were talking, Jiang Mo remembered something and turned to ask the Flying Immortal Master:

"Where is the Ancient Emperor? After I disappeared that day, did it contact you?"

"No," the Flying Immortal Master replied truthfully.

"Well, it had no choice in the matter, and probably ran away to save its own life first."

Jiang Mo did not delve into this topic, but continued to look at the other person on the right side of the seat, namely Berg, the chief scientist of the dragon race stationed at the edge of Tianyuan.

"New weapons, are they ready?"

"Reporting to the Venerable Master, everything is ready. The upgraded weapons this time are nearly twice as powerful as the previous Ultimate Star Destroyer Cannon. There are a total of six units, all fully charged. You can come and collect them at any time. I have granted you the highest level of access, so you may use them at will."

"it is good."

Jiang Mo gently raised his hand, and a crimson-gold rift suddenly opened in the void before him. From the other end of the Dragonman Prefecture, a transparent bubble was dragged out. Inside the bubble were six terrifying cannons that had been infinitely shrunk, several times larger than the Ultimate Star Destroyer Cannon.

"Buzz!"

Jiang Mo casually picked up the Heavenly Kingdom that he had put into his body and expressed his gratitude to Berg.

"Thank you for your hard work."

"This is what we should do. With your support, our people will be able to live in peace and our civilization will reach new heights. We hope this small token of our gratitude will be of some help to you."

Berg modestly said, pushing up his glasses and a smile spreading across his face.

"Please give my regards to those scholars; I extend my highest respect to them."

Jiang Mo stood up and bowed deeply to Berg.

"Okay, I hope you take care too."

...........

At dusk, in the Star Moon Pavilion and Myriad Stars Hall within the Supreme Pill Sect, Sect Master Baili surveyed the projections of one Daoist leader after another, which appeared not far from him.

Not long ago, a Celestial King was born among the Celestial Race. Like a domineering black divine sun, he burned the boundless land and issued a final ultimatum to all the major Dao lineages through telepathy.

"Within three days, we will flatten Li Yan Mountain and Fei Xian County, along with all the remaining forces of the Demon Lord, including Tian Yuan, and destroy them all. If we refuse, the war will begin in full force, the four regions will fall, and wherever the weapons point, rivers of blood will flow, and the Dao lineage will be destroyed."

The threat comes from the Hunri Immortal King, a warlike immortal king accompanied by the ferocious beast rulers of the Nine Palaces and Nine Stars. His combat power is terrifying and far beyond what a mere Extreme Realm Dao Lord can contend with.

"Boom!!!"

After the Immortal King Hunri finished speaking, the sound of the Great Dao, like a thunderous roar, pierced through tens of millions of miles and directly attacked the mountain gates of various Dao lineages, terrifying all the disciples.

Thus, at dusk, the Sect Master Baili of the Supreme Pill Sect took the initiative to win over the leaders of various Dao lineages to the Hall of Myriad Stars to discuss countermeasures. Only the Flying Immortal Master of Flying Immortal County and the Crimson Lotus of Liyan Mountain were absent.

Sect Master Baili was unsure how many of the invited Supreme Dao Lords were willing to fight or submit, and because their presence would influence the course of events and give opportunists a chance to take advantage, he did not extend an invitation.

"The Immortal Clan has given us a final deadline. I have already made my decision. I am prepared to fight to the death and will not obey their arrangements. The Immortal Clan's plan is nothing more than to make us suffer internally. If we compromise today, we will compromise tomorrow, and we will compromise every day. We will never be able to turn the tide. I believe we can fight to the very end, until we die."

Sect Master Baili was the first to speak out. His expression was firm and his voice was exceptionally steady. He strongly advocated for war and was unwilling to hand over Liyan Mountain and Feixian County.

“What you think is the same as mine.”

The leader of the Artifacts Alliance spoke calmly, offering little objection. He had been present during the battle at Medicine God Valley and had suffered considerable injuries, only to be rescued by Jiang Mo. Naturally, he couldn't bring himself to kick someone when they were down.

"The Venerable Xuanzun has been kind to us, and has even slain several powerful figures from forbidden zones and annihilated several Immortal Kings of the Immortal Clan. These are monumental achievements. How can we sit idly by and watch his lineage and homeland be attacked by the Immortal Clan?"

"Of course I will participate in the war."

"Our sect and the Immortal Clan are locked in a life-or-death struggle; we will never negotiate."

At this moment, both the Yuantian Array Sect and the Yushou Qingcang Sect stepped forward.

"If the Immortal Clan rises to power, like a raging flood or a ferocious beast, the world will be in grave danger. Rather than waiting to be killed, we should take the initiative to strike."

The old Buddhist cultivator from Mount Sumeru also spoke slowly. He had previously been hunted by the Immortal Clan and the ruler of the forbidden zone, and almost lost his life. He knew the danger of the Immortal Clan, so he proposed that everyone work together to first wipe out the forbidden zone, and then work together to head north. Ah, Sword Inquiry Immortal Clan.

“But we may not be a match for the Immortal Clan. As far as I know, the Immortal Clan currently has seven Immortal Kings who have emerged, while the Emperors remain dormant. Among you... who is confident enough to challenge an Emperor?”

At this moment, a discordant voice rang out; the leader of the Holy Bone Throne made his stance clear:

"So be it. The dead cannot be brought back to life. In the end, it's better that he's dead. If he were alive, which of you here could feel at ease? Hmph, put away your hypocritical attitude. If no one wants to be the bad guy, then I'll do it."

“I agree with the Immortal Clan’s proposal. If sacrificing the interests of Tianyuan and Liyan Mountain can bring peace, I have no objection.”

"Fellow Daoist, are you really not afraid that someone will come after you for doing this?"

Sect Master Baili's eyes turned cold, revealing a chilling intent. Just as he expected, he had caught a fence-sitter.

"People? Where did these people come from?" the leader of the Holy Bone Throne asked confidently.

"Everyone, if you agree as soon as possible, the lineage can still survive. If you wait too long, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years of hard work will be destroyed in an instant."

It's still spreading alarmist rumors.

"Do you want all of us to submit to the Immortal Race?"

A cold, sharp voice rang out. The Hall Master of the Martial Peak Hall was glaring angrily, like a raging lion, his eyes flashing with terrifying killing intent.

Unfortunately, neither of them were actually there, otherwise he would have already made his move.

"Am I wrong? A wise man knows when to yield. You know perfectly well how powerful the king of the immortal race is, not to mention that they also have a whole bunch of ultimate beings."

The leader of the Holy Bone Throne ignored them, laughing mockingly: "What, you want to die yourself, and you're also trying to stop us from living?"

"Us? Who's talking to us?" someone questioned.

"Of course it's us."

Several representatives from various sects spoke up in succession: the Insect Cave, the Gu-controlling sect of the Southern Netherworld; the Sword Lodge, the assassin holy land of the Central Plains; and the Ink Immortal Sect, the painting school of the Western Sacred Land. They had implicitly formed an alliance, banding together for survival.

In the end, even a supreme Dao Lord revealed his hand, shocking the leaders of both Mount Sumeru and the Martial Peak Hall, who remained speechless for a long time.

That person came from the Xuan Shang Tai Qing Sect!

Two of the sect's top experts were ambushed and killed by the Immortal Clan and the Dark Giant. They should have been sworn enemies, but now they have chosen to submit.

Chapter 679 Recovery

"Fellow Daoist Wu, have you thought this through?"

“You are different from them. I know you have your reasons. If you have any difficulties, just tell me. As long as I can help, I will not refuse. This matter is of great importance, and you really need to think twice before you act.”

Sect Master Baili looked at the short, frail old man with a complicated expression and poured out his heart.

The Insect Cave, Sword Pavilion, and Ink Immortal Sect are all mercenary groups that operate in a neutral position within the Immortal Realm, existing in a complex and ambiguous manner. They are capable of anything as long as there is sufficient profit to be made.

The Xuan Shang Tai Qing Sect is different. It has an indelible hatred with the Immortal Clan, and even they have submitted to it. The message behind this is chilling, which is why Baili Changfeng is so eager to know the reason.

Not only the Supreme Pill Sect, but also the Martial Peak Hall, the Life-Shaping Pavilion, the Beast Taming Sect, and Mount Sumeru, among other sects, have been persuading them and promising to help the Xuan Shang Tai Qing Sect.

The cries for help echoed throughout the hall, but in the end, all that was heard was a bitter shake of the head from the old man surnamed Wu.

He hung his head, his face listless, like a dried-up corpse drained of all hope, and spoke numbly and mechanically:

"The old and new grudges that arose from leaving Yanshan almost destroyed the foundation of my sect. All these events were due to unforeseen circumstances, and I no longer wish to delve into them..."

"However, my sect can no longer withstand the drain of any major battle. Therefore, it is nothing to endure humiliation and live a life of ignominy."

"You! How can you be so stubborn and unyielding as to face your deceased senior and junior brothers!"

Finally, a Dao Lord of the Ultimate Realm saw his dejected appearance and couldn't help but reprimand him.

"It is precisely because I must live up to their expectations that I cannot allow the sect to wither in my hands. I am ashamed to say that I am inferior to my two fellow disciples in every way. Do you think I don't want revenge? It's just like an ant trying to shake a tree, how laughable!"

At this point, the elderly man surnamed Wu's expression turned cold, and he stated firmly:

"Anyway, we're determined to destroy Li Yan Mountain, Fei Xian County, and Tian Yuan! Anyone who tries to stop us is our enemy!"

"Do not go down that path. As long as you uphold the covenant, we will protect you!"

The leaders of the Shaping Life Pavilion continued to persuade him earnestly, but the result remained unchanged.

After a long while, the situation was settled. Within the alliance, five major forces expressed their willingness to comply with the pressure from the Immortal Clan: the Holy Bone Throne, the Sword Pavilion, the Insect Cave, the Ink Immortal Sect, and the Xuan Shang Tai Qing Sect. The remaining sects unanimously opposed it.

The two sides argued incessantly, and when the negotiations came to an end, they inevitably turned against each other.

"Gentlemen, after we leave today, we will be enemies tomorrow. We will meet on the battlefield and we will not hold back. Please take care."

Before parting, Sect Master Baili spoke to the backs of the five extreme realm beings, his words revealing a deep sense of disappointment.

"Fellow Daoist Baili, instead of worrying about us, you should worry about yourselves and how to avoid being devoured. There are even more terrifying things waiting for you."

The leader of the Sword Lodge was a middle-aged man dressed in a long black robe with a pale face. He held a feather fan in his hand, and his smile and eyes were extremely sinister as he spoke of an unsettling threat.

Everyone was startled, realizing that the 'thing' he was referring to was likely some dark forbidden zone in cooperation with the immortals, but there was nothing they could do about it.
