As the war continued, the previously unstoppable advance of the Great Heavenlaw Domain gradually slowed down.
This was not because the Hundred Battles Domain had grown stronger. Rather, as the scope of the battlefield expanded, the forces of the Great Heavenlaw Domain had spread too thin, while the Hundred Battles Domain continuously contracted its lines, causing its gathered strength to grow increasingly concentrated.
Faced with this situation, the Three Emperors also began to deliberately draw back the forces of the Great Heavenlaw Domain, preparing to concentrate their strength to confront the three major powers of the Hundred Battles Domain, naly the Myriad Swords Valley, the Demonic Corpse Sect, and the Great Compassion Sky.
Only by defeating them could the Hundred Battles Domain be completely crushed.
Naturally, the movents of the Great Heavenlaw Domain could not be concealed from others, so the three major powers also began making active preparations, gathering all their forces to prepare for a decisive battle against the Great Heavenlaw Domain.
For a ti, the eyes of the entire Northern Region were drawn here. Whether the Great Heavenlaw Domain could restore its forr prestige, and whether the Hundred Battles Domain could withstand the retaliation of a top tier power, the outco of all this would have a profound impact on the entire Northern Region. Everyone was waiting for the final result to appear.
A great battle was clearly about to erupt, and it was precisely at this mont that Liu Bai erged from seclusion from the Demonic Lightning Abyss.
Upon reentering the vast sea of lightning, the surrounding Demonic Earth Lightning no longer dared to approach him, instead retreating one after another. Liu Bai moved unhindered, swiftly charging out of the abyss and arriving at the surface.
"The decisive battle between the Great Heavenlaw Domain and the Hundred Battles Domain has already begun. I have received orders for us to imdiately rendezvous with the main force."
Jiu You's voice rang out beside Liu Bai through a transmission jade slip. Without pausing, Liu Bai headed straight toward the main hall of the Demonic Lightning Sect.
"What is the current situation?" Seeing that all the high level mbers of Nine Nether Palace were present, Liu Bai imdiately asked Jiu You, who sat in the main seat.
With a wave of her hand, a spiritual light screen appeared before everyone, displaying the entire map of the Hundred Battles Domain.
"At present, our Great Heavenlaw Domain has already seized nearly half of the territory of the Hundred Battles Domain. However, that was before the three major powers made their move. Now they have concentrated all their forces in Hundred Battles City and have personally issued a challenge for a decisive battle to the Three Emperors. It seems they are fully prepared."
Liu Bai smiled faintly.
"So they have finally brought out the ones backing them, and now they feel confident."
The reason the three major powers had not acted earlier was clearly because they were waiting, waiting for soone capable of restraining the Great Heavenlaw Domain Lord to appear. Otherwise, this war would not have been worth fighting at all.
Hearing this, Jiu You also let out a soft laugh, a trace of disdain appearing on her delicate face.
"So what if they have backing. Even without the Domain Lord taking action, do they really think they can stop the advance of our Great Heavenlaw Domain?"
If this had been earlier, Jiu You might still have had so misgivings. However, the progress of the Demonic Lightning Sect's campaign had been far too smooth, and Liu Bai's growth had given her trendous confidence. As a result, she was now far more self assured than in the original account.
After all, no matter how strong the leaders of the three major powers were, could they surpass the Three Emperors. Moreover, below the Three Emperors were the Nine Kings. Judging purely from paper strength, the Great Heavenlaw Domain held an overwhelming advantage.
As for the near disaster that occurred in the original account, not only had this campaign begun three years earlier, but Mandala's sudden decision had also caught the Hundred Battles Domain completely off guard. Whether the three major powers were truly prepared was still uncertain.
At this mont, the area within a thousand miles around Hundred Battles City was already engulfed in the flas of war. Jiu You was extrely decisive and directly announced that all forces under Nine Nether Palace would mobilize and advance straight toward Hundred Battles City.
The thunderous sound of war drums stirred the blood.
Outside Hundred Battles City, the sky was dim as the two massive armies gathered here. The vast sea of troops nearly covered the heavens and earth, blocking out the sky completely. Countless surges of spiritual energy shot into the sky, causing the very air between heaven and earth to stagnate.
This was a confrontation between two colossal forces.
Once a war of this level began, it would inevitably be earth shaking. Countless experts would fall, blood would stain the heavens, and the brutality would be enough to chill anyone to the bone.
Liu Bai led the army of Nine Nether Palace and stood among the forces of the Great Heavenlaw Domain, calmly observing the formation of the Hundred Battles Domain opposite them.
Clearly, the strength of the Hundred Battles Domain was not weak. Although it still lagged behind the Great Heavenlaw Domain to so extent, it was by no ans at to be slaughtered at will.
However, this was not bad news for Liu Bai. With so many prey, what concerned him more was how to reap them all.
If things unfolded exactly like the original account, with so three match decisive duel, then even if he took action, he would at most be able to kill a single commander of the sa level. That would be utterly pointless.
If that were the case, would he not have co here for nothing.
Yet given his current status and strength, it seed he did not have the right to comnt on such matters.
His gaze swept across their own camp. Aside from the figures of the Three Emperors and the Nine Kings, he could not find Mandala anywhere.
"I hope that little girl delivers this ti. Do not give a strong start and a weak finish…"
Although he already possessed nearly five million experience points, such a rare opportunity to gain experience was not sothing Liu Bai would ever turn down.
Moreover, after this, he had no idea how long he would have to wait before encountering another opportunity like this.
"This decisive battle probably will not begin so easily." Just as Liu Bai was worrying, Tang Bing beside him spoke softly.
"Hm?" Liu Bai was taken aback.
What was this girl doing. Was she deliberately pouring cold water on him.
Tang Bing was unaware of Liu Bai's thoughts and continued, "Although the Hundred Battles Domain has put on an impressive display, they do not possess the resolve to fight to the death. If the Sky Profound Palace had not secretly encouraged them this ti, they would never have dared to provoke our Great Heavenlaw Domain."
"And if the Great Heavenlaw Domain truly wants to swallow the Hundred Battles Domain completely, it would suffer trendous casualties unless the Domain Lord personally takes action. However, with the Sky Profound Palace backing them, if the Domain Lord makes a move, the Sky Profound Palace would certainly not stand by and watch…"
There was also an even more important point. The Hundred Battles Domain served as a buffer between the Sky Profound Palace and the Great Heavenlaw Domain. If the Great Heavenlaw Domain completely devoured the Hundred Battles Domain, it would then face the Sky Profound Palace directly.
This was sothing neither the Great Heavenlaw Domain nor the Sky Profound Palace wished to see.
"So this is all just for show. Are the people of the Hundred Battles Domain out of their minds?" Liu Bai said irritably.
"They probably reached so kind of agreent with the Sky Profound Palace." Tang Bing pondered briefly, then smiled. "However, even if they do not fight to the death, today's matter will not end so easily. After all, there are many eyes watching this place."
Liu Bai felt even more troubled. Was this really going to follow the sa path as the original account. That would be extrely unfavorable.
Just as he was about to say more, three figures of light suddenly appeared at the forefront of the countless troops of Hundred Battles City. Instantly, countless experts on the side of the Hundred Battles Domain cast reverent gazes toward them.
The three figures consisted of an elderly man in a green robe with a sword case on his back, his expression cold and stern. Spiritual sword energy seed to flow within his eyes, making it impossible to et his gaze.
Beside him was a gaunt elderly man dressed in black robes. He looked like nothing more than skin and bones, resembling a dried corpse. His entire body was shrouded in an eerie chill that made others extrely uncomfortable.
On the far right stood a bald middle aged man. His build was thin, one hand held upright before him. His appearance was unremarkable, but his eyes seed to contain a galaxy of stars, mysterious and unfathomable.
The mont these three appeared, the morale of the Hundred Battles Domain surged. Deafening cheers erupted, causing even the heavens and earth to tremble slightly.
"The three great leaders of the Hundred Battles Domain have arrived," Tang Bing said with an exceptionally grave tone.
Liu Bai also sensed an extrely powerful aura from the three of them. In terms of cultivation, they were likely not inferior to the Three Emperors.
Thinking back to how Qin Tiangang had once harbored ambitions of becoming a fourth power on par with the three major forces, it now seed utterly laughable.
"Three old friends. I did not expect to et again under such circumstances," said the Sword Concealing Elder, who carried the sword case, as he looked toward the Three Emperors and spoke with a chuckle.
The Sky Vulture Emperor showed no courtesy, replying coldly, "There is no friendship between our two sides. Now that we stand opposed in battle, there is no need for such familiar words."
"Heh heh, that is because your Great Heavenlaw Domain is far too petty. We rely seized a few border cities. Was it really necessary for you to make such a grand display of force?"
A hoarse voice echoed out, sounding as if a mummy dead for thousands of years had suddenly spoken.
"You people dare to challenge my Great Heavenlaw Domain? Since that is the case, you should be prepared to bear the consequences."
The Spiritual Pupils Emperor spoke calmly, yet the deep spiritual pupils within his eyes seed to conceal boundless killing intent.
"Jie jie, truly domineering, worthy of the Spiritual Pupils Emperor."
The Corpse Mountain Old Ghost laughed hoarsely, his voice sharp and grating.
"But the three of you alone are not qualified to say such words. Why not invite the Great Heavenlaw Domain Lord to appear instead?"
The Sky Vulture Emperor's brows furrowed slightly as cold light flickered in his eyes.
To speak so lightly of the Domain Lord and completely disregard the Three Emperors caused an overwhelming killing intent to surge within him.
"It seems you really want to see ?"
Before the Sky Vulture Emperor could speak, a hoarse voice suddenly resounded out of thin air across the heavens and earth.
As that voice rang out, everyone felt a terrifying pressure descend from the sky, enveloping tens of thousands of miles in an instant.
All eyes turned upward in shock as brilliant light rapidly gathered before the Three Emperors.
That light condensed into a golden throne, and upon it sat a figure completely shrouded in radiance.
Though his figure was not particularly imposing, it silenced countless experts across the heavens and earth.
"Greetings to the Domain Lord!"
The Three Emperors imdiately clasped their fists and bowed.
Behind them, countless experts of the Great Heavenlaw Domain followed suit, their voices shaking the skies.
In an instant, the morale of the Great Heavenlaw Domain surged, while the side of the Hundred Battles Domain fell into dead silence.
Even the Sword Concealing Elder and the Corpse Mountain Old Ghost lowered their gazes, daring not to look directly ahead.
There was no choice. The gap in strength was simply too great.
Even though they were Seventh Grade Sovereigns, even a Ninth Grade Sovereign at the Great Perfection would only have one option when facing an Earth Sovereign, which was submission. Otherwise, a single slap could end their life.
Fortunately, the person behind them did not keep them waiting long.
A pressure equally powerful to that of the Great Heavenlaw Domain Lord suddenly appeared, directly offsetting the force bearing down on them.
"Heh heh. Great Heavenlaw Domain Lord, it has been many years. I trust you have been well."
A light laugh echoed across the sky.
Space above the Hundred Battles Domain was torn apart as a figure stepped forth.
It was a middle aged man dressed in green robes, with an elegant bearing. His eyes shone like a vast star river, making it impossible not to be captivated.
Mandala was not surprised by his appearance and rely said calmly, "Liu Tiandao, you have finally co."
Hearing this, Liu Tiandao smiled faintly.
According to the intelligence he had obtained, the Great Heavenlaw Domain Lord had once suffered an extrely severe injury, which forced her into long term seclusion.
However, the truth of this information was uncertain, and due to her constant absence, he had no opportunity to test it.
That was precisely why he had supported the Hundred Battles Domain in repeatedly provoking the Great Heavenlaw Domain, all to force the Domain Lord to reveal herself.
If the information was true, then she should not have appeared at all.
Now that she had appeared, did this an the information was false? Or could it be that the current Great Heavenlaw Domain Lord was rely strong on the outside but weak within?
At this thought, a glimr of light appeared in Liu Tiandao's eyes.
He raised his palm, and the spiritual energy between heaven and earth surged wildly. A multicolored mountain ford entirely from incomparably pure spiritual energy manifested out of thin air.
The mountain looked ordinary, yet it carried the weight of countless peaks.
Even a Ninth Grade Sovereign could not endure it, for it was ford from spiritual energy refined to the utmost purity.
Heaven and Earth Manifestation.
A technique that only super experts who had stepped into the Earth Sovereign realm could wield, allowing them to command the spiritual energy of heaven and earth with every movent.
"Great Heavenlaw Domain Lord, allow to gift you sothing!"
With a wave of his sleeve, Liu Tiandao sent the mountain crashing down, its massive shadow enveloping the countless experts of the Great Heavenlaw Domain below.
Since she had already appeared, whether the information was true or false could simply be tested personally.
Boom!
As the shadow descended, the faces of all Great Heavenlaw Domain experts turned deathly pale.
Under such an attack, they could not even flee. The difference in strength was simply too vast. Before Liu Tiandao, they were nothing more than ants.
This was the first ti Liu Bai had felt such helplessness.
No matter how many thods he possessed or how many trump cards he had prepared, before the descending Heaven and Earth Manifestation, he had no power to resist.
He could only wait for death to arrive.
This was the first ti since transmigrating that Liu Bai truly felt how powerless he was.
Yet this was not despair. Instead, it filled his heart with imnse relief.
Relief that he had not been blinded by transmigration or his golden finger, and that throughout his journey he had always sought a sufficiently powerful backer to shelter him from the storm.
If he had truly relied on his golden finger and acted without restraint, then the mountain above his head today would likely have already crushed him into nothingness.
