Chapter 3774 Xiao Chao

“If that person were willing to take action, our annihilation of the Qian Yuan Holy Land would be a piece of cake—”

Feng Zhuqing also said.

Hao Yang shook his head: “The Qian Yuan Holy Land is not worth Senior Bodhi’s attention. This is a problem that our Fuyao Holy Land can handle; why trouble that person?

Now that many of the Qian Yuan Holy Land’s top experts have fallen, only a few ordinary Immortal Emperors remain. I alone can handle them.”

Although Shen Changqing agreed to join the Fuyao Holy Land as its Supreme Elder,

Hao Yang was well aware that

the other party wouldn’t act rashly.

If everything depended on that person, it would only make them think that he, the Holy Lord, was useless.

If Shen Changqing were truly the ancestor of the Fuyao Holy Land, that would be fine.

But the problem was that

his identity was fake.

Before the relationship between the two sides was truly stable, if they angered the other party and caused them to abandon the Fuyao Holy Land, it would truly be a double loss.

Because of this, Hao Yang had no intention of asking Shen Changqing to take action.

Hearing this…

The other two Immortal Emperors also suppressed their thoughts.

Three days later,

the army of the Fuyao Holy Land set off.

Numerous immortal ships and warships broke through the void, heading directly towards the Qianyuan Holy Land.

Such a commotion could not be concealed.

Almost the instant the Qianyuan Holy Land army set off, the news spread completely. On the Qianyuan

Holy Land side

, the entire Holy Land was thrown into chaos upon hearing the news of the Fuyao Holy Land army’s departure.

Inside the Immortal Palace,

the newly appointed Holy Lord Xiao Chao sat on his throne, his expression extremely solemn.

“The Fuyao Holy Land army has set off. Judging from the situation, it seems they are heading straight for our Qianyuan Holy Land. What solutions do you all have for this?”

he said slowly

. After he finished speaking

, silence fell over the Immortal Palace, and many cultivators turned pale.

Seeing this, Xiao Chao sighed inwardly again.

He was originally just an elder of the Qian Yuan Holy Land. Later, the previous Holy Lord and many Immortal Emperors perished at the hands of the Fu Yao Holy Land, forcing him to take the mantle and become the new Holy Lord.

For ten thousand years,

Xiao Chao had been constantly trying to improve the strength of the Qian Yuan Holy Land.

However,

the battle with the Fu Yao Holy Land had inflicted too much damage on the Qian Yuan Holy Land.

To this day, the Qian Yuan Holy Land has not recovered much. Xiao Chao had

always

been extremely wary of the Fu Yao Holy Land, fearing they might attack the Qian Yuan Holy Land.

But the Fu Yao Holy Land remained quiet for ten thousand years, which gave him some relief.

And now—

just over ten thousand years later, the Fu Yao Holy Land couldn’t resist attacking.

Xiao Chao knew without a doubt that the Fu Yao Holy Land would not hold back in this battle.

If the Qian Yuan Holy Land couldn’t withstand it, its destruction would be imminent.

Thinking of this,

Xiao Chao glanced at the people in the Immortal Palace and smiled bitterly to himself.

Defend!

With what could they possibly use to defend?

Given the current state of the Qian Yuan Holy Land, it simply lacks the qualifications to contend with the Fu Yao Holy Land.

In that battle, thirteen of the fifteen Immortal Emperors of the Qian Yuan Holy Land perished.

Now,

only two Immortal Emperors remain in this vast holy land.

One is Xiao Chao himself, and the other is a holy land elder.

The latter’s cultivation is only at the initial stage of Immortal Emperor, making him no match for the Fu Yao Holy Land.

As for the Fu Yao Holy Land, although it has also suffered heavy losses, the fact that its Holy Lord Hao Yang is still alive is the greatest threat.

The power of a top-tier Immortal Emperor is far beyond what an ordinary Immortal Emperor can match.

Just then,

the only two Immortal Emperors of the Qian Yuan Holy Land spoke in a deep voice, breaking the silence of the Immortal Palace.

“The Fu Yao Holy Land has come with overwhelming force this time, and it is said that Hao Yang has even personally taken action. With the current strength of our holy land, we have absolutely no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation with the Fu Yao Holy Land.

The only way now is to unite with the Bei Dou Immortal Sect and the Bi Ling Dao Sect; only then will we have a glimmer of hope!”

Upon hearing this…

Xiao Chao nodded slightly.

This was also his thought.

Uniting the two major forces was the only chance to contend with the Fuyao Holy Land.

As for whether the two major forces would agree, Xiao Chao wasn’t worried.

The reason was simple:

if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold!

The Fuyao Holy Land currently possessed the greatest strength. If the Qian Yuan Holy Land were to fall, the next target would undoubtedly be either the Beidou Immortal Sect or the Biling Dao Sect.

And without the Qian Yuan Holy Land, even if the two major forces joined forces, they would likely still be no match for the Fuyao Holy Land.

At this point,

their only option was to intervene and rescue the Qian Yuan Holy Land.

“I have already sent messages to both sects. Next, seal off the Holy Land’s gates; no cultivator is allowed to enter or leave. Simultaneously, activate the Holy Land’s defensive formations to the fullest extent, and ensure the supply of immortal stones is uninterrupted.

If we can hold out until the two major forces arrive, then we will have a chance of victory in this battle!”

“Furthermore—”

“You need not harbor any other thoughts. The Fuyou Holy Land is ruthless, and in the last battle, many of its Immortal Emperors perished. This is an irreconcilable blood feud.

To think of surrendering and begging for mercy from the Fuyou Holy Land is nothing but wishful thinking!”

Xiao Chao’s words caused a subtle change in the expressions of many cultivators.

Clearly,

his words had truly touched upon their deepest desires.

If you can’t win, join them!

This is the common practice of many forces.

But as Xiao Chao said, the two major forces are already mortal enemies.

Even if they wanted to surrender, the Fuyou Holy Land might not accept them.

Surrender means death!

Fighting back might offer a glimmer of hope!

Seeing the changes in the expressions of the many cultivators, Xiao Chao sneered inwardly.

He was well aware of the thoughts of these high-ranking members of the holy lands.

If the Fuyou Holy Land could have a Celestial Emperor betray it, it was impossible for everyone in the Qianyuan Holy Land to be loyal.

Ultimately ,

it all came down to vested interests.

When faced with the choice between the survival of the holy land and their own lives, not all cultivators would necessarily side with the former.

At this point, Xiao Chao naturally had to give them a warning.

There was no other way.

While other cultivators might have a sliver of hope, as the new Holy Lord of the Qianyuan Holy Land, he would certainly not survive if the holy land fell.

To be precise, no Celestial Emperor had a chance of survival.

Only those below the Celestial Emperor level had a slim chance of survival.

Of course,

that was only a possibility.

Now that things had reached this point, Xiao Chao naturally wanted to maximize the strength of the Qianyuan Holy Land.

Seeing that his words had worked, Xiao Chao immediately made the next arrangements.

In less than half an hour, the Qianyuan Holy Land had entered a state of absolute preparedness.

A beam of immortal light shot into the sky, shaking the nine heavens. Immediately afterwards, the power of Daoist rules descended like a canopy, covering the entire Qian Yuan Holy Land.

Seeing the activated defensive formation, many cultivators from the holy land secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

With this formation in place, they felt much more at ease.

Less than half a day after the formation was activated, the void outside the Qian Yuan Holy Land shattered, and hundreds of warships crashed through the void, stretching across the sky, their murderous aura covering the heavens and earth, instantly attracting numerous gazes.

“They’ve arrived!”

Inside the Qian Yuan Holy Land, Xiao Chao’s expression was serious.

With the Fuyao Holy Land’s army pressing in, he was under considerable pressure.

However—

seeing the activated holy land formation, he quickly relaxed.

This formation was extraordinary, having been passed down for trillions of years. Unless a half-saint intervened and could break it instantly, even for other Immortal Emperors, even top-tier Immortal Emperors, breaking it wouldn’t be easy.

In this way,

the Qian Yuan Holy Land could hold out until other forces arrived.

“Defensive formation!”

On a celestial vessel, Haoyang stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the Qian Yuan Holy Land, his expression indifferent.

Beside him were Feng Zhuqing and Ye Changge.

This time, to deal with the Qian Yuan Holy Land, all the Celestial Emperors of the Fuyao Holy Land had been mobilized, with no intention of leaving even one or two Celestial Emperors to guard it.

Guangyu Prefecture now knew that the Fuyao Holy Land had a Half-Saint Ancestor guarding it.

Even if other forces had ten times the courage, they wouldn’t dare attack the Fuyao Holy Land.

Moreover,

before this trip,

Haoyang had specifically gone to the Bodhi Celestial Mansion to ask Shen Changqing to secretly protect the Fuyao Holy Land.

If there were any invading enemies, that person would naturally handle it.

Under these circumstances, Haoyang naturally wouldn’t waste any extra power.

Ye Changge said, “The formation of the Qian Yuan Holy Land is formidable. Legend has it that 120 billion years ago, a top-tier Immortal Emperor attempted to break it, but even after three months, he couldn’t budge it.

Now that the Qian Yuan Holy Land is unwilling to release its forces, breaking the formation won’t be easy for us. If this

drags on, the Beidou Immortal Sect and the Biling Dao Sect will surely send reinforcements.

At that point, a three-pronged attack will be dire for us!”

Although Ye Changge had anticipated the current situation, he still felt somewhat troubled when he actually witnessed it   .

Haoyang said calmly, “The Qian Yuan Holy Land will surely be destroyed in this battle. If the Beidou Immortal Sect and the Biling Dao Sect don’t come, fine. But if they do, we’ll wipe them out in one fell swoop!”   He paused, a chilling glint in his eyes.   ”Pass on my order: all disciples, attack the formation with all your might!”   ”Yes!”   Ye Changge and Feng Zhuqing both accepted the order.   Then…   On the numerous immortal ships of the Fuyou Sacred Land, mysterious powers rose, and massive amounts of immortal energy converged, followed by a devastating outpouring of energy that crashed down upon the immortal light of the Qianyuan Sacred Land’s array.   ”Boom—!!!”   The energy from hundreds of immortal ships exploded forth, each ship unleashing power comparable to a single strike from an ordinary Immortal Emperor.   Although the cultivators on these ships were not highly skilled, at most only half-step Immortal Emperors,   these immortal ships were not ordinary flying treasures, but supreme treasures combining offense and defense, already reaching the level of Emperor Immortal Artifacts.   When numerous cultivators activated them together, they could unleash power comparable to an Immortal Emperor.   However,   these immortal ships also had a clear flaw: such attacks were difficult to dodge, even for some ancient immortals who were careful, let alone Immortal Emperors. Truly hitting the target was not easy, and the energy consumption was considerable.   Only in the current situation could they truly be effective.   The power of hundreds of immortal ships erupted and bombarded the formation of the Qian Yuan Holy Land, causing it to tremble violently. Numerous Daoist auras rippled outwards, but the formation remained intact.
