Chapter 949: War Is Coming

“We will give our energy to you.”

Seeing that they couldn’t catch up to Li Fuchen, three of the human-shaped lifeforms poured their energy into the black lifeform.

The insect race had several terrifying attributes. Their reproductivity, information sharing, and also energy sharing.

With three times as much energy, the black lifeform emitted a qi presence that stopped the flow of space-time.

…

“I am finally reaching the exit.” 

Several days later, Li Fuchen arrived at the outer borders of the battlefield.

During this period of time, the insect race battlefield was giving off increasing pressure. He had a premonition that if he was slower, he might face the threat of death.

Piercing through to the seal barrier, Li Fuchen walked into the sword force passage.

Buzz!

Right at this moment, a black lifeform suddenly appeared from the void. Once it appeared, there was a stoppage of space-time. The stabilized sword force passage had also distorted in shape.

Li Fuchen turned back and couldn’t help widening his eyes.

The black lifeform’s qi presence was four times superior to the purple lifeform. It also meant that the black lifeform had more than four times the energy as compared to the purple lifeform.

Energy and strength wasn’t having the same proportions. Two times the energy would basically mean ten times the strength.

Boom!

The black lifeform executed a fist and burst the sword force passage open.

“Am I supposed to be afraid?” 

Since this place wasn’t far from the seal barrier, Li Fuchen didn’t fear the black lifeform and countered with a slash.

The battle between the two had a rather huge commotion. It even spread to the seal barrier and caused it to distort.

Of course, the distortion on the seal barrier was just a visual phenomenon. There was no damage to it, unless the seal itself was faulty.

The Bitter Sea Sword Lord and the others were able to vaguely see through the seal. They could see the indistinct images of Li Fuchen and the black lifeform.

“It is the Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord.”

“Something isn’t right. I remember the insect heaven lord was a purple human-shaped lifeform previously. Why is it a black human-shaped lifeform now?”

The battle was extremely intense. The black lifeform might be a few dozen times stronger than the purple lifeform, but Li Fuchen wasn’t backing down. Before his energy was exhausted, he wasn’t afraid of the black lifeform at all.

“Forget it.” 

After battling for a long time, Li Fuchen was certain that he didn’t have any chances to kill the black lifeform.

Clang!

Making use of the shockwave, Li Fuchen flew towards the seal barrier.

The black lifeform sneered as its body shifted and suddenly appeared in front of Li Fuchen.

In terms of strength, he might not be stronger than Li Fuchen, but in terms of speed, he was far superior.

“Sword Sea Horizon!”

The silver sword sea enveloped the entire black lifeform.

Pfff!

The black lifeform forcefully ripped the sword sea and blocked in front of Li Fuchen again.

“Bitter Sea Horizon!”

All of a sudden, a dark sword qi slowly entered the folds of the seal barrier. The moment it covered the black lifeform, it brought the black lifeform into an unknown sword world.

“Primary Extreme Sword Saint Lord, hurry up and get out.” The Bitter Sea Sword Lord’s voice transmitted into Li Fuchen’s ears.

Shortly after, Li Fuchen rushed out of the insect race battlefield.

Soon after Li Fuchen left, the black lifeform’s figure slowly materialized from the void.

The Bitter Sea Sword Lord might be a city lord-level heaven lord, but he was trying to trap the black lifeform from outside the barrier. The results were already praiseworthy and it wasn’t possible for the trap to last forever in such conditions.

Bang!

The seal barrier didn’t have any effects on Li Fuchen and the others, but it had an intense backlash on the black lifeform. It caused the black lifeform’s shell to crack and black blood was bursting out.

“Many thanks to the sword lord.” Li Fuchen cupped his fist and bowed to the Bitter Sea Sword Lord.

The Bitter Sea Sword Lord said, “I should be the one to thank you. Without you, my daughter will not be able to make it out unscathed.”

While speaking, the Bitter Sea Sword Lord took a glance and said to everyone, “Remember, do not enter this insect race battlefield anymore. I suspect there is a primary extinct class hive inside and there are more than two insect heaven lords.”

After they returned, he planned to report the things here to the guildmaster. He wasn’t the one to decide on how to deal with the insect race battlefield. The decision had to be made by the upper echelons.

“Understood.” Everyone nodded.

They weren’t fools, even if someone spent a huge price and invited them, they wouldn’t agree to enter this insect race battlefield.

After returning to the Sword Star City, the Bitter Sea Sword Lord handed the balanced seven sword bones to Li Fuchen.

With ten pieces of sword bones, Li Fuchen believed that he could upgrade the Primary Extreme Sword Technique to top rate apex state.

Once the Primary Extreme Sword Technique broke through to top rate apex state, his strength would be terrifying. Along with the Joint-Heaven Sword, he wouldn’t have any problems battling with grade 3 or grade 2 heaven lords. He was confident he could contest with grade 1 heaven lords.

However, after the cultivation technique broke through to top rate apex state, one would be considered a heaven lord.

For martial dao cultivators to become a heaven lord, there were two paths. First way was to comprehend a supreme rate martial art. Second way was to comprehend a top rate apex cultivation technique.

After comprehending a supreme rate martial art, it would allow for one’s bloodline to transform into a supreme rate bloodline, which was also a heaven lord bloodline.

When comprehending a top rate apex cultivation technique, it allowed for one’s body to transform into a heaven lord’s body.

The sword bone was a part of a sword dao heaven lord’s body.

It had been half a year but the Wind Cloud Sword Saint Lord and the others didn’t leave yet.

Since they exited the Sword Pool, they had been in seclusion. After they finished their seclusions and noticed Li Fuchen hadn’t returned yet, they had been waiting.

In any case, the Sword Star City was an ideal place for sword dao cultivators. It was fine for them to stay here for an extended period of time. 

After staying a few more days in Sword Star City, Li Fuchen and his group still left.

The teleportation platform in the Divine Leaf City’s Swordsmen Guild lit up. Five figures appeared.

“What is going on?”

Li Fuchen immediately sensed a dense pressure in the atmosphere of Divine Leaf City.

In the past, the Divine Leaf City gave off a very peaceful feeling. After all, the World Tree’s leaf contained unlimited vitality and it could affect the laws of a region in the universe.

“The Divine Leaf City has been sealed. No one is to enter and leave. However, the star domain teleportation arrays aren’t sealed for now. Therefore, your group is able to return.” The White Rainbow Heaven Lord appeared in the group’s vision and explained.

“Vice Guildmaster, what is happening?” The Red Leaf Sword Saint Lordess couldn’t understand.

The White Rainbow Heaven Lord said, “It is all because of the World Tree’s leaf. This leaf is constantly targeted by countless pinnacle experts. But no one is confident in taking it down. Different from the war that happened a long time ago, a ruthless individual has appeared. He is the Undying Legion’s 19th Battalion Commander, Blood Ax Imperial Lord. He is a star domain-level heaven lord. Even the Crosswise River Primogenitor would need to be serious when dealing with him. Along with his 19th battalion, it wouldn’t be exaggerated to say he can take over the Crosswise River Star Domain. Right now, the 19th Battalion has surrounded Divine Leaf City and has even sealed up space-time. No one can enter or exit. If the star domain teleportation array isn’t of a sufficiently high grade, none of you would be able to return.”

“Undying Legion…” Everyone’s heart turned cold.

The Undying Legion was notorious in the entire universe. The Undying Legion’s leader, Undying Lord King was an invincible existence in the universe.

Generally speaking, the Undying Legion had two kinds of groups. The first type would be the battalions. The other would be like the Sky Patrol Beast Sovereign who was scattered everywhere and would only gather during a mission.

Now that the Divine Leaf City was targeted by the 19th Battalion’s Blood Ax Imperial Lord, the outcome was probably unfavorable.

“Should we contact the Sword Star City’s Swordsmen Guild?” Li Fuchen asked.

The Sword Star City’s Swordsmen Guild was a galaxy-class Swordsmen Guild and definitely had star domain-level heaven lords.

The White Rainbow Heaven Lord shook his head, “This is a war between the Divine Leaf City Lord and the Blood Ax Imperial Lord. We are not involved and we don’t need to invite trouble.”

Be it the Swordsmen Guild or the Undying Legion, they were one of the strongest factions. Such factions wouldn’t have any conflicts so easily. After all, conflicts between pinnacle factions wouldn’t end so cleanly. Once there was a conflict, they would fight at full strength. Because of small conflicts, it might result in a universe-class war.

Divine Leaf City Lord residence…

“You still have time to give up. The Blood Ax Imperial Lord isn’t someone merciful.” The Myriad Flower Lady persuaded the Divine Leaf City Lord.

The Divine Leaf City Lord said unwillingly, “Give me a few ten thousand years and I will be able to break through to the star domain-level. Giving up right now is impossible.”

This World Tree leaf was too beneficial to the Divine Leaf City Lord. As he grew stronger, it became even more beneficial. According to this development, in a few ten thousand years, he would become the second star domain-level heaven lord of the Crosswise River Star Domain. It was a pity that the Blood Ax Imperial Lord arrived now.

The Myriad Flower Lady sighed and said, “But you need to know that the Blood Ax Imperial Lord isn’t a regular star domain-level heaven lord. He is comparable with the Crosswise River Primogenitor. Your chances of victory against him are less than 10%. Once you fail, you will not be able to make a comeback. If you give up on Divine Leaf City, you still have chances of breaking through into a star domain-level heaven lord.”

How could she not understand the Divine Leaf City Lord’s feelings?

Heaven lords were seemingly high and mighty. They might seem indifferent and uninterested in most things, but actually, it meant that the temptation wasn’t attractive enough.

If she was the one who possessed the World Tree’s leaf, she would be reluctant to give up too. She might choose to fight back to the end just like the Divine Leaf City Lord.

“I know, but I, the Divine Leaf City Lord, is no longer the same as before. If the Blood Ax Imperial Lord wants the World Tree’s leaf, he will need to show his capability.”

Without any chances of victory, the Divine Leaf City Lord wouldn’t gamble. It was because of the little hope that made him irrational.

After a moment of silence, the Myriad Flower Lady lifted her head and said seriously, “I will not participate in this war. You should understand.”

The Blood Ax Imperial Lord wasn’t terrifying, it was the backer, the Undying Legion’s Undying Lord King that was terrifying.

It was the reason why the Myriad Flower Lady wasn’t going to risk her life.

“I naturally understand.” The Divine Leaf City Lord nodded.

Billions of miles away from the Divine Leaf City, there was a blood-colored castle floating silently.

At the front of the castle, there was a symbol of a blood ax and it looked tyrannical and dominating.

Inside the castle, saint lords and heaven lords were gathered in the palace hall.

It was hard for outsiders to understand the strength of the 19th Battalion. Only people who knew the details would know how terrifying they were.

Apart from the Blood Ax Imperial Lord, there were ten city lord-level heaven lords, over 100 regular heaven lords, and tens of thousands of saint lords. The rest were all elite saints.

Just the number of heaven lords would be comparable with half a star domain.

The Crosswise River Star Domain only had one star domain-level heaven lord and over a dozen city lord-level heaven lords.

On the throne seat of the palace hall, there was a dark red-skinned giant seated.

Without a doubt, this red-skinned giant was the commander of the 19th Battalion… Blood Ax Imperial Lord.
