Not long after the war started, a real Immortal Emperor showed up from the contorted spacetime and domineeringly made a move.

 

The immense energy caused the entire universe to tremble. The Fragments of Time and countless Principles intertwined as they descended with a tremendous force, trying to stop the powerful enemy on the shuttle.

 

In an instant, billions of divine spells and techniques appeared and landed on the enemy.

 

The emotionless enemy easily pushed out his palm in an attempt to destroy the embankment and the countless ancient runes on it so that his soldiers could continue pushing forward.

 

When he was obstructed, his dispassionate gaze seemed able to cut the universe into half and evaporate the River of Time. He had no choice but to turn around and get into a battle with this Immortal Emperor from the Other Domain.

 

*Boom! Boom! Boom!*

 

This was meant to be an epic battle that travelled across time. The two figures were fighting in the contorted spacetime as they moved from one epoch to another epoch. Heaven and Earth seemed to have turned upside down as the course of history was changed and the world was going through a major reshuffle.

 

Fortunately, the battle broke out in the Boundless Expanse, not in the True World. Otherwise, just a wisp of the energy from their battle would be able to destroy countless universes.

 

An Immortal Emperor could easily destroy a universe and kill all living beings with a flick of his finger.

 

The two of them used a lot of horrifying moves. The usually desolate universes were now all illuminated.

 

Countless soldiers of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation emerged from the doors of light and hurtled towards the Prosperous Dao True World.

 

The embankment started glowing again as ancient runes brightened. Ancient and contemporary auras permeated the area. Every rune symbol was a primordial character that contained a special meaning.

 

These runes were continuously combined as they turned into light beams and shot towards the soldiers of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation.

 

When the two parties clashed, these soldiers were like snow coming into contact with the scorching Sun. They could not even resist as they instantly turned into dust.

 

Other than existences above the Immortal King Realm, living beings of other levels were like ants in the face of these light beams. Their sheer number could not make up for their weakness.

 

Watching all this, the soldiers on the Boundless Battlefield could not help but cheer in excitement.

 

Many Immortal Kings were elated. They did not expect that this embankment, which had been around for countless years, would have such a power. Not only could it resist the impact coming from the Boundless Expanse, but it could also fend off enemies.

 

The embankment, which did not seem to have an end, was like an indestructible wall. It stood there and exuded an ancient aura that could suppress anything in the world.

 

“Since time immemorial, only beings above the Immortal King Realm have a right to go there and leave behind a footprint. We thought it was meant to stop us from going further. We didn’t expect it was meant to protect us. The Seniors who had built this embankment might have expected that this day to come.”

 

Many Immortal Kings were thrilled and high-spirited.

 

An incalculable number of ancient battleships hovered above the Boundless Battlefield. These cultivators and living beings were excited upon seeing the scene.

 

…

 

“These runes contain the secrets of an Immortal Civilisation. I didn’t expect that they would be used to form an Array. These are the embers of the Immortal Flame Core I’ve been looking for!”

 

On the rounded shuttle, Zhuo You stared fervently at the embankment. She did not care that the soldiers of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation were easily destroyed. In her opinion, these losses did not matter. Countless beings of different Races were nurtured in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation. She had brought trillions of living beings with her this time.

 

These losses were merely a fraction of what she had. They were used as cannon fodder to find out the other party’s power.

 

“Go copy those ancient runes. If they’re combined, we might get a record of the origins of the Immortal Civilisation.”

 

Zhuo You gave the order to her subordinates, who quickly copied those ancient runes. Every rune represented the origin of an ancient character of the Immortal Civilisation. They were invaluable.

 

It was because of the existence of these ancient runes that the embankment was indestructible. They continued to exist by absorbing the power of Principles from the universe and could ward off the enemies.

 

Unless many Immortal Emperors made a move at the same time, this embankment could not be destroyed.

 

But now, the truly powerful cultivators of this True World had not shown up yet. Thus, Zhuo You was cautious. Although her Grandfather had made a prediction about her safety, she could feel there were many Dao Realm experts in this Nascent True World. Therefore, she decided not to make a move first. She was still trying to find out the other party’s power.

 

This True World had many secrets. Since it was a Nascent True World, it was extremely difficult for a Dao Realm Master to be born. It would use up its Fortuity accumulated over the years to create just one of said experts.

 

But now, it there were a few Dao Realm Masters.

 

“Zhuo Cheng, you’ll watch what’s going on in the other direction. If you detect the aura of a Dao Realm Master, stop that person immediately. Don’t let that person approach our mothership,” Zhuo You ordered.

 

Behind her was a towering figure with a silvery glow. His figure seemed to keep shifting. He replied, “Yes, Mistress.”

 

He was a powerful cultivator who was just as mighty as any Dao Realm expert in the Immortal Dao Civilisation. He had gone through his First Spiritual Transformation and was comparable to a Dao Realm Master who had gone through one Decay Tribulation.

 

The innumerable soldiers of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation fearlessly shot towards the Prosperous Dao True World like a storm.

 

At this moment, if one looked at the Prosperous Dao True World from afar, they would discover that the soldiers of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation had engulfed the vast void.

 

Although the embankment was still radiating a glow and shooting beams, there were too many enemies from the Immortal Spirit Civilisation. They passed through the gaps of the light beams and bolted towards the Boundless Battlefield without caring about their safety.

 

The Boundless Battlefield was located between the Boundless Expanse and the Prosperous Dao True World. It was a large gap that was not protected by the embankment.

 

That was why the Immortal King Families had to guard this place all year round.

 

Now, the soldiers of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation were forcing their way through the gap.

 

Runes started glowing from the ancient battleships. The soldiers of the Prosperous Dao True World were cautious as they marched forward in formations.

 

The epic war had broken out, and it was chaotic. Cultivators and living beings who were on the Boundless Battlefield were going against the enemies.

 

Outside the Boundless Expanse, the battle between the two Immortal Emperors was equally horrifying. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they were opening up Heaven and Earth.

 

Meanwhile, Gu Xianer came across a powerful enemy. A living being in the Immortal King Realm emerged from the gap along with his soldiers and bumped into the ancient battleship where she was located.

 

The Immortal King on her battleship had gone somewhere else to deal with the enemies in a different direction.

 

There were only a small number of Immortal Kings in the Prosperous Dao True World. Including those who always guarded the Boundless Battlefield and those who had come to this place, there were no even a hundred of them in total.

 

“How dare you try to stop me? Go to hell!”

 

The Immortal King from the Immortal Spirit Civilisation had a shrivelled face and exuded a cruel aura. It was a wonder which Race he hailed from, when he was surrounded by the aura of death.

 

Faced with this battleship, which was only guarded by a True Immortal, he directly extended his palm in an attempt to kill all the living inside of it.

 

“The Immortal King is coming at us…”

 

All those on the battleship were despondent, including the True Immortal.

 

Just then, Gu Xianer made a move at the most critical moment. She seemed to be travelling across time. Having mastered the Power of Time, she was able to appear from a different space and return to her original spot the next instant.

 

She pushed out her fist. The Chaos Energy surged around her petite fist. Time seemed to have exploded with a boom.

 

The Immortal King’s hand trembled violently as his bones cracked following the attack. Then, his hand exploded.

 

There was no emotion on her face as she charged forward. Her slender figure was surrounded by Celestial Light. She was like a graceful fairy who carried with her a ferocious murderous intent.

 

The Immortal King from the Immortal Spirit Civilisation was badly injured following this exchange of moves. He was flabbergasted as this forced him to fully activate his power.

 

“We didn’t even know there’s a female Immortal King here. What’s more, she looks so young…”

 

All those on the ancient battleship were rooted to the spot. They could not come to their senses for a long time. They had already fallen into a state of despair, so they did not expect there would be hope.

 

All of them turned to look at Gu Xianer.

 

The True Immortal in charge of the battleship said excitedly, “That’s wonderful! That’s wonderful! We have another Immortal King! She’s already so powerful when she’s so young. We didn’t even know there was a prodigy hiding on our battleship.”

 

Gu Xianer’s face was covered in a Celestial Light. Even cultivators of the same level might not be able to make out her appearance.

 

Anyway, even if they could see her face, the people here might not realise her identity. After all, she had been missing from the Prosperous Dao True World for a long time.

 

These people had come from different worlds, so they might not know her existence.

 

They could faintly see that she was young, considering the age of her bones. She had attained such achievements at a young age. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was unprecedented.

 

Naturally, Gu Xianer did not care about all of such things. She was fully focused on the Immortal King before her eyes, determined to destroy het opponent.

 

Since she left the Heavenly Tomb, she had not gotten into a real fight with an opponent of the same level. She did not even know how powerful she truly was.

 

The Immortal King before her eyes could help her achieve her goal.

 

*Boom!* Gu Xianer charged forward again, but she did not use a weapon. She pushed out her fist. The powerful light coming from her fist could evaporate everything in the world.

 

Many energy particles emerged as they seemed able to cleanse everything in the world. A myriad of expressions came over the Immortal King. While feeling astounded, he did not dare to clash with Gu Xianer head-on.

 

The battle in this place was shocking. The River of Time surged as Principles turned into dust.

 

The Immortal King from the Immortal Spirit Civilisation was initially cruel and icy. He was determined to destroy the ancient battleships and opened a gap. He did not expect to come across Gu Xianer.

 

Although he had used all sorts of moves, he could only move backwards while spitting blood.

 

After exchanging hundreds of moves, the Immortal King from the Immortal Spirit Civilisation turned into Bloodmist. His body was destroyed by Gu Xianer. Nevertheless, it was hard to kill an Immortal King. Even with just his Soul, he intended to tear apart spacetime and flee.

 

Gu Xianer had already expected that. A dilapidated ancient tower flew forward. Great Dao Principles fell down from the tower like a waterfall.

 

The Soul was soon suppressed and kept inside the tower, where Gu Xianer would slowly annihilate it.

 

This was an Exotic Treasure she had brought with her from the Heavenly Tomb. It was a wonder which grade it was, but it had nine storeys. However, only seven storeys were left to suppress things.

 

The battle had shocked many parties.

 

The Immortal Kings in other battles were exchanging blows. They were injured, but they could not kill each other. Considering their cultivation level, it would be difficult for them to be killed unless one party was tremendously more powerful.

 

It was indeed astonishing that Gu Xianer was able to kill an Immortal King with such ease. Moreover, it did not seem that she had fully utilised all her power.

 

“She’s such a prodigy. A mysterious young female Immortal King suddenly appeared during our time of crisis. Our True World is truly lucky. We surely won’t be annihilated.”

 

A few Immortal Kings could not help but guffaw as they were thrilled.

 

This crisis had caught them off guard. They did not know why the other party had come to destroy the Prosperous Dao True World. Still, their reason was unimportant. This did not affect their determination to resist. Although they were badly injured, they had to make the other party pay a huge price.

 

The morale of the soldiers from the Prosperous Dao True World was boosted following the death of an Immortal King from the Immortal Spirit Civilisation. They became even more fearless as though they were not afraid of death.

 

Gu Xianer received some messages through divine sense from the other Immortal Kings. They were concerned about her safety. They felt that she was one of the most talented people in history, so her future was limitless. As such, she should not expose herself to dangers here. She should immediately return to the headquarters of the Heavenslayers Alliance.

 

She could not be allowed to die here, for she was bound to achieve greater heights in the future.

 

A prodigy like her was a treasure to the Prosperous Dao True World. She should be protected at all costs. Naturally, they did not wish to let her expose herself to danger on a battlefield where she might lose her life at any moment.

 

Many long-time Immortal Kings were sending such messages to her, telling her to stay away from the front line. They would handle everything there.

 

Although Gu Xianer knew that these people were well-meaning, she could not excuse herself from this battle at this point.

 

She was a Heavenslayer in her first life, leading the army of the Mountains and Oceans True World to partake in the Great War Against Heaven to resist the Great Purge.

 

Moreover, she could get some training in a war like this and absorb more Heavenly Essence. That way, she could quickly reach the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Realm in the shortest time possible.
