There were four world palaces out of the nine rebelling but the other four world palaces with their palace lords were supporting the Lifelong Realmlord. There were many peak powers in Lifelong City and many empyreans had came to attend the grand banquet this time around. If they were all willing to stand on the Lifelong Realmlord’s side, this would undoubtedly be an effortless victory. They could easily subdue Qin Wentian’s subordinates and quell the chaos.
However, the problem was that the victory and defeat between Qin Wentian and the Lifelong Realmlord hasn’t been determined yet. Who would dare to say the Lifelong Realmlord would win for sure?
If they stand out now to kill Qin Wentian’s subordinates and the eventual victor was Qin Wentian, what would it bode for them? It would undoubtedly be a calamity.
Naturally, if the Lifelong Realmlord was victorious, they would naturally be able to receive more rewards.
If they could choose, many powers would rather sit on the fence, they had no inclinations to be swept up into this storm. But in truth, many powers were forced to take sides. For example for the four world palaces who rebelled, if they didn’t battle and if the Lifelong Realmlord was the victor, all of them would surely be slaughtered and vice versa.


Those powers that didn’t belong to the direct control of the Lifelong Sainthall would be better off as long as they didn’t participate. Even if Qin Wentian won, he most probably wouldn’t find trouble for them. But if the Lifelong Realmlord won, he would surely suppress them.
Hence, to many other powers, they were trapped in a dilemma.
In the Lifelong Sainthall, many people with extraordinary auras appeared. These were all the descendants of the Lifelong Realmlord. Now that such a major thing has occurred, they naturally had to come out.
Upon seeing these people appearing, more and more major powers stepped out. The experts they had at their disposal were as numerous as the clouds, with several empyreans. These powers all had no way to terminate their connection with the Lifelong Realmlord. Among them, many powers sent their outstanding female descendants to the Lifelong Sainthall and were the Lifelong Realmlord’s concubines. There were also many who married the Realmlord’s descendants, or married to major characters of the Lifelong Sainthall.
Hence, the number of people participating in the battle increased.

Kill all rebels and show no mercy. All of you have received kindness from the Realmlord before. Right now, are you all only planning on saving your own hides?
A beautiful woman with a transcendent demeanor shouted. She was actually exuding the aura of an empyrean, many people didn’t recognize her but those peak powers all knew that this was the number one favored concubine of the Lifelong Realmlord. She was beautiful and extremely powerful and had a very high position in the Lifelong Realmlord’s harem. She could even influence matters of the Lifelong Sainthall if she wanted to.
As the sound of her voice faded, many powers stepped out. Someone added,
That’s right. The Lifire Palace instigated the rebellion. At this moment, we should fight for the Realmlord and quell the chaos, destroying these rebels!

At this moment, another beautiful woman flew over. Her beautiful eyes gazed in the direction of the Desolate Heaven Palace Lord, she was so beautiful that flowers would pale in comparison.

Biyue.
Huang Zhan felt his heart ache when he saw the woman he loved appear. She was now already a concubine of the Lifelong Realmlord. His heart was filled with extreme conflict.

Slut, scram the hell away.
The beautiful woman earlier cursed when she saw Fairy Biyue. Fairy Biyue turned pale. When he saw this scene, Huang Zhan radiated an extremely violent aura as he coldly spoke,
Concubine Lu, how dare you.




Why? Huang Zhan, you don’t like my behavior? Could it be that the two of you still have feelings for each other? As expected, Biyue didn’t obey the propriety of being a wife. After this battle, I shall discipline her properly.
Concubine Lu icily spoke.

I’ll kill you.
Huang Zhan’s aura flooded out. He flew through the air, rushing at his opponent. However, the Skyair Palace Lord moved like lightning, blocking his attack. A sword materialized and slashed out at the void.

Follow me to kill these rebels, we have to repay the Lifelong Realmlord for his kindness to us.
An empyrean from the Sword Spirit Sect roared, drumming up morale, wanting to get more people to participate in the battle.

FIGHT!
The Xuanyuan Palace Lord roared. Right now, they had no choice but to battle.
Jialan Jiangshan stared at the crowd of experts as he silently speculated. He didn’t know if the choice he made today would be a blessing or a curse. Let’s hope that the Jialan Clan won’t be destroyed in his hands.
Stepping out, Jialan Jiangshan rushed towards the crowd and began to attack. His heart was already determined.
The experts on both sides clashed together. For a period of time, chaotic aftershocks devastated the area in the air. Those spectators below all watched with tumultuous feelings. They didn’t expect such a thing would occur at the grand banquet today. Who would have thought that a world-shocking battle would erupt?

Qin Wentian’s side seems to be suffering a disadvantage. Although World Overlord Yi has appeared, he most probably won’t participate in the battle. Also, given how deep the foundations of the Lifelong Realm is, their forces aren’t something the Lifire Palace can deal with, although a total of four palaces had rebelled as well.
The crowd silently mused. The ending of this battle might be decided by the winner of the battle between Qin Wentian and the Lifelong Realmlord. It would truly be too cruel if all of Qin Wentian’s subordinates were killed.
At this moment, among the crowd, numerous figures suddenly flew up in the air, moving with lightning speed, incredibly swift.
Behind one figure, an entire projection of a world appeared behind him, containing a myriad of transformations. This person exuded an aura as though he could dominate the entire world. He shot straight towards the direction of the Sword Spirit Sect with the power of an explosive arrow blasting from a heavenly bow. In an instant, the world projection erupted forth with boundless source origin energy, creating a flow of chaos, imbuing him with enough power to split the skies.


The expression of the empyrean from the Sword Spirit Sect who tried to drum up the morale earlier drastically changed when he saw this expert. He only saw countless source origin powers blasting towards him, blotting out the sky. A pair of fists were like an entire world being hurled at him. Numerous sword sages formed from his sword intent, however, when the sword sages came in contact with the fists, all of them were blasted into smithereens. That world-destroying fist light directly slammed into his head, blasting it apart. Before his death, a final thought flashed in his mind. The Spirit Sword Sect was finished.

Who is that?
Many people felt great shock in their hearts. That person was actually an extremely good-looking young man. However, a sense of imposing majesticness could be felt radiating from him, as though he was the lord of this world.
In another direction, a giant golden beast appeared. The body of this beast seemed to be constructed from gold and this beast was like the king of all bestial creatures. He wrenched open his maw and his howl filled the sky. A terrifying suction force was exerted on many experts. The people he targeted all couldn’t control their bodies at all as they flew involuntarily towards that opened maw.

No!
Someone screamed in shock. He was about to be devoured by the golden giant beast.
In another direction, many devil practitioners appeared. The devil might from there towered up into the sky. The person in the lead radiated the red light of judgement, executing the experts of the Sword Spirit Sect. There were also some who were shrouded in complete darkness. They directly appeared behind their targets and assassinated them with ease. There were also experts who could summon ancient devils to do their bidding, destroying their enemies.
Not only them, there were many more experts flying up into the air to participate in the battle. They had been hiding among the crowd only to appear at the decisive moment, doing so with explosive might.
They directly appeared in different battlefields, but several of them aimed for the Sword Spirit Sect. Because, Qin Wentian had personally said that the Sword Spirit Sect shall cease to exist today. Hence, right now, the Sword Spirit Sect was the one enduring the strongest attacks. Earlier, they were the ones who shouted the loudest but in the blink of an eye, they actually drew a calamity upon their own heads. The people of the Sword Spirit Sect felt boundless terror and despair, what sort of existence had they angered? Just because of a few humiliating words spoken about Ye Qianyu, their entire sect was going to be annihilated.
Many sect members felt intense hatred for the Spirit Sword Sect Leader at the moment before their death. They hated him for involving their sect into this storm. So what even if the Lifelong Realmlord was the victor later? They would all already be dead, they wouldn’t be able to see it.

Who are these people?
Countless people below were extremely shocked. Where did this army of empyreans came from?
Although empyreans were above the emperor realm, no one would be able to tell that a person was an empyrean just from a single glance. Although they had comprehended source origins, they haven’t truly reached the level of a world overlord. If they wanted to hide their cultivation bases, even overlords wouldn’t be able to sense it. Hence, no one discovered that an army of empyreans were actually hiding among the crowd.


Concubine Lu froze as her expression turned extremely ugly to behold. Those powers who stood out and declared support for the Lifelong Realmlord instantly felt regret. Qin Wentian’s backup was much more terrifying than they had imagined. Although no one knew where these people came from, they clearly had a connection with Qin Wentian.
For those who still sat on the fence, they heaved a sigh of relief, deciding not to participate in this storm. No matter what the future holds, they would choose to remain neutral. The price for participation was too great.
Let alone those on the side of the Realmlord, even the Desolate Heaven Palace, Xuanyuan Palace, Gemini Palace and Jialan Clan were stunned by this. After that, they felt excitement in their hearts. So it turned out that Qin Wentian had long arranged everything. This caused their confidence in Qin Wentian to increase even more. This fellow was simply a miracle.
The Xuanyuan Palace Lord suddenly discovered that these people who were initially inconspicuous in the crowd, suddenly felt somewhat familiar to him. He had met them before, these were the people Qin Wentian brought with him to the ancient battlefield back when they were in the lower world. At that time, he didn’t really care about them, hence he didn’t notice them before this. It was only now that he discovered that there were actually many empyreans among them.
But, isn’t Azure Mystic a place where there are no empyreans?
Could it be the world-ending battlefield?
Upon thinking up to here, the Xuanyuan Palace Lord’s heart trembled. What good fortune did Qin Wentian acquired exactly?
Yi stood in the air, silently watching everything. His eyes were fixed on a figure. This person wielded a divine bow and was rapidly shooting out arrows. This man was none other than Emperor Yu, he was now an empyrean and was Yi’s follower back then when Yi was still in Azure Mystic.
Beside Yu, Yi could sense many familiar auras. Evidently, these people were all from the Battle Saint Tribe. Qin Wentian truly had not let the Battle Saint Tribe down. The accomplishments of these people were even higher than those from the Battle Saint Tribe who followed him, the second-generation Saint Lord.
The Gemini Palace Lords also saw this. Smiles could be seen in their gazes, their fellow tribe members were actually also already empyreans. At this moment, they were filled with gratitude for Qin Wentian.


Before this, everyone thought that other than the battle between Qin Wentian and the Lifelong Realmlord, the subordinates of the Realmlord would surely crush Qin Wentian’s side in battle. Who would have thought that the situation changed so quickly. Qin Wentian actually hid an army of empyreans and they were all now erupting forth with their power.
Today, for this once per hundred years grand banquet, could it be that the Lifelong Realm’s skies would really be changed?!
