Chapter 767: Chapter 16: Death in the Eleventh Realm?! (Start of Yue, Request for Monthly Tickets!)
Luo Tian and Tianchen faced off outside the Yin Yang World.
Neither made any rash moves.
Though it was merely initial exploration, all parties involved knew that the Yin Yang Material inside was of great help to cultivation, even for those in the Ninth Realm.
Naturally, no side was willing to give up.
However, the reasons for their persistence were not the same.
Tianchen’s reasons were more straightforward, aiming to use the resources within to enhance himself and the Tianchen World.
He speculated that the phenomenon could lead to greater opportunities; if he could decipher it, he might be able to use this opportunity to ascend to the Tenth Realm. Even if that failed, conquering the Tianchen World would be highly profitable.
On the other hand, Luo Tian had only one thought.
That was to wait for the Lifeless True Saint to arrive.
The stronger he became, the more he understood the power of the True Saint. Luo Tian dared not covet the items directly specified by the True Saint.
Seeing that Luo Tian had no intention of speaking, Tianchen took the initiative and said, “Luo Tian, why don’t we fight, and the winner takes this world? What do you say?”
Divide the Secret Realm? Develop it together?
As long as world confrontations existed, cross-boundary wars made cooperation in the same region unthinkable without a powerful external enemy.
Every benefit could possibly lead other worlds to surpass his own.
It was only because Tianchen World was powerful that he was even speaking such words.
Luo Tian opened his eyes, looked at Tianchen, and warned, “I advise you not to act rashly; otherwise, the outcome will be undesirable. I am merely guarding this world.”
The True Saint was bound to arrive.
Their so-called struggle was futile.
“No good outcome? Guarding?” Tianchen watched Luo Tian. “Are you trying to scare us?”
Despite some hesitation in his heart, he could not back down.
With determination, he stopped hesitating and immediately made a move, trying to drive Luo Tian away.
The world wasn’t very large, and as he was in the Ninth Realm, he could explore it quickly; a little time would suffice.
Luo Tian was strong, but he was not weak, and he had come fully prepared this time.
He was confident in repelling Luo Tian.
“Heavenly Que Blade, Moonset!”
Suddenly, Tianchen brandished a long saber that emitted a terrifying aura, an incredibly fearsome Starry Sky Secret Treasure.
The long saber sliced through the starry sky, sketching a vast and mysterious full moon, the cold radiance scattering, and the blade light sharp as if intending to freeze everything and chop off Luo Tian’s head.
Luo Tian sighed, extracted a flag.
The Sealing Heaven Flag!
After resolving the issue in the Secret Realm, Wang Sheng had returned the Sealing Heaven Flag to Luo Tian.
This flag was not suitable for him; it only displayed its utmost power in Luo Tian’s hands.
Luo Tian then waved it, disrupting the entire starry sky’s energy, and the powerful blade light was disturbed, its force sharply reduced.
The blade light forming the full moon also rippled, like the moon in the water.
An illusion, easily shattered.
Tianchen had expected this; becoming a Ninth Realm without some opportunities was practically impossible.
The Heavenly Que Blade was merely a probe.
“Heavenly Star Descent!”
He seemed to transform into an ancient star, the vast aura enveloping everything, even decoding the domain of the Sealing Heaven Flag.
The long saber and the stars descended simultaneously, causing Luo Tian to frown.
He realized that Tianchen had used a second Starry Sky Secret Treasure, and it was one of a highly offensive nature.
This, he hadn’t anticipated.
If he resisted directly, he too would suffer greatly, and defending the place would likely fail.
“It seems Tianchen was prepared… To go to such lengths for a Secret Realm?”
That was what set them apart.
The top worlds in the Tianchen World had submitted, moving forward following the Source Star, and the pressure wasn’t that great.
But Tianchen, aiming to be an Overlord, must seize every opportunity.
Every little bit counted as preordained.
Luo Tian seemed unchanged, but after submitting, he had indeed lost much ambition.
Of course, faced with this situation, he couldn’t simply retreat.
However, just as he was about to have one of his subordinates in the Eighth Realm use the Energy Talisman, a voice emerged.
As the word fell, an overbearing aura permeated the entire battlefield, whether it was the Heavenly Que Blade or the ancient form that Tianchen had transformed into, all were intimidated by this aura.
In an instant, all attacks were halted.
Tianchen returned to his original form and then looked in horror towards a certain direction.
Luo Tian, unknowingly, now had a young man beside him.
At first glance, he seemed otherworldly, his demeanor exuding a transcendent air, as if he didn’t belong to this world.
Most crucially, Tianchen couldn’t see through his cultivation level.
While he was deep in thought, he saw Luo Tian, the one he had just been fighting with, lower his head very respectfully: “Greetings, True Saint!”
Such a posture was only displayed when facing someone significantly stronger than oneself.
Just as those in the Eighth Realm in the Tianchen World did before him.
Tianchen recalled the intelligence infiltrated personnel had sent back.
Top Tianchen World mysteriously possessed weaponry that could harm those in the Eighth Realm.
He had speculated at the time that the top Tianchen World had either received a powerful legacy or had gained the support or cooperation of another world.
Now, it seemed he was half right.
The top Tianchen World appeared to have submitted.
And the person now arriving was a powerful being from another Big World, with a cultivation of at least… the Tenth Realm!
Suddenly, he felt an intense sense of crisis.
He saw the person dubbed the True Saint look at him, and inquire of Luo Tian, “This is the Boundary Master of the Tianchen World, isn’t it?”
