The Mountain Ancestor gazed steadily at the War Domain.
In his eyes, the entire War Domain still appeared like a chessboard, represented in two colors.
In the north was gold, symbolizing the territory occupied by the Vast Realm.
anwhile, the south showed azure and blue, signifying the area controlled by the Mountain and Sea Realm.
The boundaries were clear-cut between the two, with only the center having a ring-like territory where both sides were still constantly clashing.
At this mont, due to the intervention of a Sea Ancestor’s avatar, the space above the Central Domain shimred with a sea blue hue.
"You ultimately couldn’t resist entering the scene. Just because of this, you will never be my match."
...
Central Domain.
Everyone gazed at the firmant, witnessing the arrival of a dazzling figure.
She had a tall and graceful figure, wearing splendid attire with subtle makeup.
Her long ice-blue hair was fastened by a golden crown, appearing neat and orderly.
Her face was stunningly beautiful, yet cold as ice, with fine brows resembling two shallow ice-blue waves of the sea. Just a glance made people feel an untouchable sense of distance.
"Is this the visage of the Sea Ancestor?"
Ning Qi fixed his gaze on the Sea Ancestor, never before in his life had he encountered such a powerful female cultivator.
Capable of contending with the Mountain Ancestor, standing among the two Ancestors of the Mountain and Sea Realm, leading the entire marine domain within the Mountain and Sea Realm!
Beside Ning Qi, with Zhao Yujun at the forefront, all cultivators under the Sea Ancestor’s command bowed toward the Sea Ancestor avatar gathered in the sky.
"Subordinates welco the Sea Ancestor!"
Their montum was overwhelming, each face showing an expression of excitent, akin to the cultivators of the Vast Realm witnessing the descent of the Saint Ancestor’s avatar.
As for the cultivators led by Gong Tiandao under the Mountain Ancestor, they did not salute.
Instead, their faces revealed a look of disappointnt.
The Sea Ancestor’s avatar had descended, but why not the Mountain Ancestor’s avatar? Could it be that the Mountain Ancestor deed them unimportant?
Their ntality beca evidently unsettled at this mont.
On one hand, they thought since the Sea Ancestor’s avatar had arrived, surely the Mountain Ancestor, who had long opposed the Sea Ancestor, would also descend.
On the other hand, as they observed the Boundary Wall in the sky remaining motionless, their inner belief told them the Mountain Ancestor wouldn’t appear.
In the current situation, the absence of an Ancestor’s avatar could indeed impact their morale.
Regarding the two realm armies under Ning Qi’s command, they slightly bowed to the Sea Ancestor’s avatar as a sign of respect.
The newly gathered Sea Ancestor avatar’s imperious, inviolable ice gaze directly swept across the opposite sky where the Saint Ancestor’s avatar was.
"Old fellow, I won’t hold this against you for sending one avatar, but now you’ve sent a second, do you truly think there’s no one in the Mountain and Sea Realm?"
The Sea Ancestor’s red lips parted slightly, her voice flowing like the tide, echoing throughout the Central Domain.
The Saint Ancestor’s avatar slightly furrowed his brow.
Since the inter-realm warfare comnced, the Saint Ancestor had been gathering intelligence on the two Ancestors of the Mountain and Sea Realm.
From the intelligence he obtained, it inferred the Mountain Ancestor and Sea Ancestor were at odds, restraining each other and unlikely to arrive swiftly, so how co this woman appeared so abruptly?
Yet, upon considering the Sea Ancestor’s personality, the Saint Ancestor was not surprised.
Though this woman primarily practiced the paths of ice and water, her temperant was contrary to her cultivation, fiery as fla. Moreover, due to early experiences, a hint of madness seed to stain her disposition.
Now, upon arrival, she instantly voiced such domineering words, further evidencing the underlying tone of her character.
The Saint Ancestor’s avatar loudly declared:
"The Spirit Realm war was initiated by your Mountain and Sea Realm’s offense against my Vast Realm first. My Vast Realm suffered repeated setbacks; how could I, the Saint Ancestor, ignore the casualties of my realm’s cultivators?"
Upon hearing, the Sea Ancestor did not debate or refute the matters raised by the Saint Ancestor.
Instead, she nodded her exquisite chin, acknowledging the Saint Ancestor avatar’s words.
At least in her view, the Saint Ancestor avatar spoke with justifiable reasoning, and his actions, manifestly arriving at the war domain earlier, indicated a greater concern for his subordinates’ lives.
Below, all cultivators gazed at the two Ancestor avatars in the sky, unable to contain their excitent; were the avatars of the two Ancestors about to clash?
Even Ning Qi felt a pinch of excitent.
After waiting so long, he wouldn’t have to bear the flag of the Mountain and Sea Realm’s cultivators, and he could witness the Sea Ancestor’s prowess.
Previously, he had received three treasures from the Mountain and Sea Realm Will.
One was a core realm power from the Mountain and Sea Realm Will, a strand incomparably stronger in quality than ordinary realm power.
Another was the Mountain Stabilizing Seal granted by the Mountain Ancestor, which Ning Qi used to withstand the attacks of many cultivators and subsequently weathered the Celestial Tribulation.
The final one was a treasure nad the Heart of the Ocean, bestowed by the Sea Ancestor.
Ning Qi obtained these by fulfilling tasks for the Mountain and Sea Realm Will, indirectly engaging with the powers of the Sea and Mountain Ancestors.
These three treasures had already, during his Celestial Tribulation, been clandestinely sent back to the True Martial Realm for parsing and analysis by his original form, hoping to glean more power information from them.
Now with the Sea Ancestor’s avatar descending, Ning Qi thought of this matter again.
His original form should have nearly deciphered the three by now.
However, he didn’t imdiately inquire of his original form; clearly, with the avatars of the two Ancestors about to duel, the timing wasn’t right.
Simultaneously, Ning Qi felt increased disdain for the Mountain Ancestor, who had yet to send an avatar.
That fellow was truly cunning!
Ning Qi naturally categorized the Mountain Ancestor as one of those sly types, as even the Sea Ancestor had dispatched an avatar; for the strongest cultivator of the Mountain and Sea Realm to be hiding at the back, what else could he be but cunning?
