Chapter 1064: Compromise

Barbarian Ancestral Court, Holy Mountain.

“Die!” Mo He bellowed as his saber flashed.

A waterfall made entirely of Saber Qi appeared in midair.

“Ahh!” A Nascent Soul cultivator could not flee in time and split into two. Even the Nascent Soul did not escape.

“Ha…” Mo He gasped as he looked around.

Even this mighty blow could not stop the wolf-like gazes from the surrounding cultivators.

“I can’t… believe this…” He smiled bitterly. Even if he had expected that the Holy Mountain would suffer defeat, he could not have imagined that they would lose so quickly and so badly!

“At first, I thought that the defensive arrays, five Immortals, and tens of thousands of soldiers would be able to hold on for several months and even inflict substantial damage on the cultivator forces. But the cultivators unexpectedly set up the ‘Ten Deadly Heavenly Gates Array’ around the Holy Mountain!”

The array had two characteristics. First, it covered a large area, including the Holy Mountain and the Barbarian Palace! Second, it isolated heaven and earth!

Within the array, the Qi of Heaven and Earth could no longer obtain replenishment from the outside.

Regarding viciousness to soldiers, nothing could surpass running out of food!

For cultivators, the Qi of Heaven and Earth was food! Their lifeline!

Without this supplement, even with the spirit stones, pills, and so on in the Holy Mountain, their defeat was set in stone!

The barbarian patriarchs led elite soldiers to break the array, but with ten Immortals keeping watch, they returned without success. Instead, the enemy took advantage of the situation and conquered the foot of the Holy Mountain!

“He’s almost out of energy!”

Nearby, several Golden Core cultivators exchanged glances and activated their spirit artifacts to prepare a long-range attack.

Poof!

Mo He was staggering, nearly falling to the ground.

Seeing this, the Golden Core cultivators revealed a hint of joy and approached him slowly.

Zap!

Several streaks of saber light emerged. With one sweep, they all lost their heads under the formidable power.

“I’m afraid… I really will die here today!”

Mo He had countless wounds all over. Even though he knew he was about to die, he remained calm.

“There are endless heads to cut and endless blood to drink. I have no regrets in this life, but it’s a pity that my race…” Mo He murmured with a hint of disappointment.

He used to be the brightest star on the Holy Mountain. Immortals respected him, looking forward to the development of his Great Dao. However, one misstep and then nothing…

…

“Five barbarian patriarchs, victory and defeat have been decided. Why are you still pointlessly struggling and wasting lives?”

Kun Lunzi appeared above the Ten Deadly Heavenly Gates Array in the air, and his sonorous voice resounded throughout the Holy Mountain. “As long as you issue life oaths to join the Combat Heavenly Palace, we will give the barbarians a place in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.”

“Bullsh*t!” On the peak of the Holy Mountain, Brutal Child’s group of five patriarchs appeared. “Every single barbarian is an indomitable warrior. We will only live as humans, not dogs!”

“Haha… I said it before!” Another black-robed Immortal laughed aloud. “These barbarians are even more stubborn than the people from my Holy Dao. We should directly exterminate them! Tsk tsk… These barbarian cultivators have powerful souls, and their Blood Qi is outstanding. They’re all top-grade resources!”

“In that case…” Kun Lunzi looked around. “Let’s do it together!”

“Kun Lunzi! Immortal Myriad Soul!” Patriarch Brutal Child’s disheveled hair made him look frenzied. “You really want to wipe out us barbarians? Fine! Then we’ll all die together!”

He took out a simple bronze ring, bit the tip of his tongue, and spat out a mouthful of blood essence.

The other barbarian patriarchs’ expressions hardened as they did the same.

After gathering the blood essence of five great barbarian Immortals, the bronze ring changed mystically. Over a million densely-packed battle patterns appeared above it.

“Immortal artifact? No, it looks like an array key?” Kun Lunzi’s pupil shrank.

Kaboom!

The entire Holy Mountain began trembling violently.

The ground split open as sand and rock flew all around.

“What’s happening?”

“It’s the Holy Mountain! The Holy Mountain is about to collapse!”

…

Many astonished voices came. Not only from the barbarians but also from the attacking cultivators!

Roar!

Suddenly, a horrifying roar came from the bottom of the Holy Mountain.

It seemed like the angry roar of an ancient fierce beast that had awakened.

With this roar, the barbarians’ and cultivators’ expressions turned to shock as they fell to the ground.

Poof!

A black pillar of light soared into the sky, overwhelming everything in its path and carrying a thick air of pure destruction.

“This is… the Qi of an otherworldly demon?!”

Kun Lunzi and Immortal Myriad Soul were incomparably frightened.

The otherworldly demon aura was completely different from the native demon cultivators. They would never mistake this.

Furthermore, this demon was much more terrifying than any other otherworldly demon they had ever seen. By merely releasing a little of its aura, all the Immortals started shuddering!

“Haha!” Brutal Child’s hair was in a frenzy as he looked up and laughed cheerfully. “Did you think the Hundred Thousand Mountains were a paradise devoid of otherworldly demons? Otherworldly demons only know of destruction, so how could they ignore this place? The reason the Hundred Thousand Mountains has enjoyed peace is that we sealed an unparalleled otherworldly demon here!”

There were also ranks among otherworldly demons!

The otherworldly demon sealed in the Holy Mountain was undoubtedly a high-ranking overlord.

The other demons had sensed its aura and naturally did not dare to offend it.

“So that’s why!” Kun Lunzi and Immortal Myriad Soul exchanged glances. This was obviously the barbarian patriarchs’ greatest secret. Even if they had planted many spies, they would have never figured this out. They yelled angrily, “How could you release this demon? Aren’t you afraid of becoming sinners of heaven and earth?”

“You forced us!” Brutal Child suddenly stopped moving. “If the heavens want to blame, half of the responsibility is on you. So? Are you going to continue?”

“You…” Kun Lunzi looked uncertain, but Immortal Myriad Soul’s eyes flashed excitedly.

Rumble!

The peak of the Holy Mountain began crumbling. The immortal palace grounds began sinking, revealing a horrifying sinkhole that seemed to extend to the foot of the mountain.

Using an Immortal’s spiritual will, one could see an otherworldly demon head the size of a house, with a dagger inserted in its forehead. It opened its eyes slowly and attempted to break out of the seal.

Whenever this happened, a golden lightning net emerged from the void to block the demon.

“It’s just… a head!” Even Immortal Myriad Soul was intimidated. “I’m afraid that at its peak, this otherworldly demon far surpassed the Immortal level!”

In the face of such a variable, even he felt the situation was very troublesome.

“So? Do you still want to have a life-and-death struggle?” Immortal Brutal Child looked up at the sky and raised the bronze ring. The other four patriarchs surveyed the surroundings, anticipation deep within their eyes.

Kun Lunzi and Immortal Myriad Soul exchanged glances before sending a signal. “Tell the soldiers to retreat!”

The attacking cultivators backed off like a tide.

“It’s impossible for us to withdraw from the Hundred Thousand Mountains and leave the barbarians now!”

Kun Lunzi, Immortal Myriad Soul, and other Immortals discussed through voice transmission before Immortal Myriad Soul stepped forward. “We can take this as the extent of the war, but you have to swear that three Immortals will enter the Combat Heavenly Palace! Otherwise, what do we have to fear about a life-and-death struggle?”

These words were more credible coming from him since he was a Demon Immortal.

“Three Immortals? Too many. We can send twenty thousand barbarian soldiers and two Immortals!” Brutal Child frowned.

Brutal Extinction, Dark Essence, and the others revealed a hint of joy.

In any event, the fact that the high-end combat power did not enter a large-scale battle was cause for celebration. The threat of their genocide had disappeared, and the next step was negotiations.

“We can discuss the details!” Kun Lunzi said. “But if this demon escapes, the entire world will suffer a disaster!”

“Relax. I only opened the outermost barrier. The core seal is still in place!” Brutal Child was smiling proudly as he formed hand seals. “Seal!”

Whoosh!

The golden lightning net glowed brightly. The demon roared again and again as it was suppressed.

Golden lightning gathered and formed a somewhat damaged ancient character—Pantheon!

…

“Pfft!”

Within the Pantheon Palace.

Fang Yuan appeared with his nose and mouth bleeding, looking aghast.

“Is this the power of an Immortal? We merely crossed paths for an instant, but I suffered such heavy injuries?!”

Fortunately, the palace had a lot of spirit pills and medicines. Fang Yuan consumed several bottles, and his aura finally stabilized.

“We’re in trouble!” Gold Ingot walked over inside the puppet. “That Immortal has covered the entire surrounding fifty kilometers with his spiritual will. Once you appear, you’ll become his target!”

“I know!” Fang Yuan smiled bitterly. “We can’t just continue hiding here, right? Since he’s scanning the area inch-by-inch, no matter how good the immortal abode’s concealment methods are, he’ll still find it!”

“Right!” Gold Ingot’s voice was serious. “Once he discovers us, you won’t be able to control the immortal abode’s restrictions with your cultivation. He’ll break through in no time! By then, we’ll be as good as dead.”

In his eyes, they were now in dire straits!

“Come to think of it, didn’t Immortal Hong Chen leave you any life-saving methods?” Fang Yuan asked curiously.

“You are the Pantheon Palace’s master. Don’t you know what’s in here?” Gold Ingot shook his head. “We’re facing an Immortal! According to his inspection speed, he’ll find us in two hours at the latest!”

“It really is dire!” Fang Yuan shook his head and sat cross-legged. “Protect me while I cultivate. No matter what happens, don’t call me!”

“Hmm? Are you going to break through now?” Gold Ingot was puzzled. “So what if you’re at Primordial Core? The power of an Immortal is unfathomable, and even relying on the Nine Star Pearl Mystic Technique to control the immortal abode might not save you.”

Controlling the immortal abode depended heavily on the cultivation realm!

If Fang Yuan cultivated to the Apotheosis realm and hid in the immortal abode, even three Immortals would not be able to do anything to him.

But now, this was obviously impossible.

“Eh?” The next moment, Gold Ingot was bewildered. “Isn’t he merely breaking through to Primordial Core? Why does he have such a powerful imposing manner?”
