Translator: 549690339 |
The Great Elder of the White Lotus Sect looked solemn, still hoping to find a glimmer of possibility to stop the war.
“In this battle, even the Red Moon Demon Sect has no chance of survival, let alone the White Lotus Sect.” Dugu Yuan spoke bluntly.
Upon hearing this, the Great Elder of the White Lotus Sect trembled.
The Red Moon Demon Sect, though not the absolute strongest among the Hundred Sects, was at least in the top three, with a Celestial Human Realm expert in command. They were far more powerful than the White Lotus Sect could hope to compete with.
If even the formidable Red Moon Demon Sect was to be eradicated by Morigin, did his White Lotus Sect stand a chance at survival?
Not daring to even think about it, the Great Elder of the White Lotus Sect struggled to raise his head, his gaze penetrating the void, falling upon Dugu Yuan, and tentatively asked, “What if my White Lotus Sect submits to Morigin and the Imperial Court?”
“Very simple: abolish the original foundation and start anew.”
Dugu Yuan spoke solemnly, his eyes full of intimidation, staring at the opponent.
“You… don’t even think about it…” The Great Elder of the White Lotus Sect’s face changed.
Abolishing the foundation of the White Lotus Sect was no different from destroying their inheritance.
Furthermore, once their foundation was abolished, wouldn’t the old fellows who had lived for hundreds of years be sentenced to death?
How could they possibly agree to such harsh conditions?
“Great Elder, at this point, still harboring illusions about Morigin is utterly childish.”
Just then, an authoritative voice echoed, as if coming from beyond the domain. It shook people’s hearts and made their souls tremble.
“Supreme Elder of the White Lotus Sect, Wan Lian.”
Dugu Yuan looked at the figure soaring across the sky in the distance, enveloped by an imposing aura.
A figure bathed in brilliant light, standing on a sacred lotus, appeared to be a god descending from beyond the domain. The air around them exploded with unequaled terrifying waves that spread over the battlefield.
The immense power of this presence made even the souls of those in the Gold Body Realm tremble, and even those in the Rune Seed Realm shook in fear.
The arriving Wan Lian was far more powerful than both Dugu Yuan and the Great Elder of the White Lotus Sect.
Her entire body was enveloped in a holy light, dazzlingly radiant. One could only perceive a terrifying aura circulating around her but couldn’t see her true form.
Upon closer inspection, the Sacred Lotus beneath her feet had eight petals, exuding a holy aura that subtly transformed the atmosphere, making one’s mind sink into intoxication.
“It’s the Supreme Elder!” Many disciples and powerhouses of the White Lotus Sect shouted as if they had seen hope, becoming extremely excited.
They all knew of the Supreme Elder’s strength. Hundreds of years ago, they had entered the Golden Core Realm and were once on par with the Holy Master. They had even once fought for the position of Holy Master.
Seeing the appearance of the Supreme Elder of the White Lotus Sect in person, Dugu Yuan showed no surprise or fear.
His target was the Supreme Elder of the White Lotus Sect. Others would be dealt with by other powerhouses.
Divine power illuminated everything, like a giant sun descending upon the earth. The entire sky shook, thunder roared, filling the vast battlefield with a terrifying divine radiance.
Covered in golden armor and inscribed with runes, she appeared to be a goddess, her body circulating with the power of a Golden Core, intimidating the souls of those present and leaving them breathless.
“Wan Lian, I have been waiting for you for a long time.” The powerhouse, who was enveloped by golden light and resembled a giant sun, spoke, giving a sense of inviolable majesty.
“Heavenly Level Demon Extermination General, Linghu Dao!”
The White Lotus Sect looked at the descending powerhouse with solemn expressions.
“The White Lotus Sect will be destroyed. If you all submit to execution, your disciples will have a slim chance of survival. Otherwise, there will be mountains of corpses and bones.” Linghu Dao’s words fell, an overwhelming battle intent erupted, shaking the mountains with just his aura, causing the earth and sky to tremble. This power far surpassed Dugu Yuan and others in the early stages of the Golden Core Realm.
“Back then, our Hundred Sects retreated from the Nine States, surrendered it to Morigin, depleted our sect’s foundation, and barely managed to occupy the coastal territories by snatching from the Sea Clan.
Now, Morigin pursues relentlessly, slaughtering all the way to the White Mountain Domain, and even attempting to annihilate my White Lotus Sect. Do they intend to completely push the Hundred Sects onto a single battlefront? Even if Morigin were to win in the end, their strength would be greatly damaged. By that time, the Demon Beasts would counterattack, the Nine States would fall, and the Imperial Court would crumble.” Wan Lian threatened.
“It’s not about whether the Hundred Sects can unite or not, but even if they do, with Morigin’s current foundation, it is far beyond your imagination.” Linghu Dao’s words were resolute and decisive.
Wan Lian fell silent. In fact, she was aware of the current situation of the Hundred Sects, continuously splitting into several camps with numerous internal contradictions. Even powerful enemies such as Morigin and the Sea Clan couldn’t unite them.
Talking more would be useless and would only lower the White Lotus Sect’s morale. Moreover, it would be unbecoming of her identity as a Golden Core Realm True Master.
After a long silence, she slowly said, “As the Supreme Elder of the White Lotus Sect, I cannot let it be destroyed. If that’s the case, we shall fight!”
At this moment, the Sacred Lotus beneath her feet erupted with a supremely holy light, and divine radiance spread through the air. Under this contrast, she appeared like a noble goddess, dazzling and breathtaking.
“Then follow me to the high void for battle!”
Linghu Dao let out a soft laugh; his towering figure transformed into a golden sun, rushing straight up into the sky..
