Immortal of the Ages

"Brutal clans like the Dragon Devil Clan must be completely crushed, or they'll never cease their disturbances. This loss will only fuel their rage even more. We must be wary of their retaliation next," Si Ji said coldly.

"Indeed, I've heard that the news has reached the Southern Divine Dragon Realm and has incited universal outrage there. The mood for war is escalating, and they are resolved to fight us to the death. Do you know what they are boldly claiming now?" Wan Ji asked, her eyes blazing with anger as she lowered her head.

"Tell me," Si Ji said.

"They are claiming that after this battle, they won't allow a single empty space to remain unfilled in the stomachs of the people from the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm..."

Upon hearing this, Si Ji clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles made a thunderous noise, and fury swirled in her eyes.

Could these Dragon Devil Clan men be any more arrogant, disgusting, and brutal?

"We'll see about that when the time comes," Wan Ji said coldly.

Si Ji alone might not have strong convictions and could at most protect herself. But now in the Harmony Divine Palace, it wasn't just Si Ji!

Yu Ji was also in the middle of a critical breakthrough, unnoticed by others on the Extreme Yin Star, taking the most important step of her life alone!

"Wan Ji, give Yun Xiao two Burying Heaven grade Calamity Sources. I've run out," Si Ji suddenly said.

"Are you sure?" Wan Ji paused for a moment and glanced at Yun Xiao, who was looking their way.

"Give them to him; he's a monster, the future of our Extreme Yin Celestial Realm is up to him," Si Ji declared.

"Do you trust him that much?" Wan Ji exclaimed in surprise, given that Si Ji was previously the one who thought least of Yun Xiao, "Is this what being conquered feels like?"

"Stop that. Once you get to know him better, you'll understand," Si Ji retorted.

"Get to know him better, huh?" Wan Ji teased seductively.

Si Ji faltered, hastily clarifying, "I didn’t mean it that way! Why is your mind always on such things?"

"You're well-fed, so of course you're all philosophical now," Wan Ji snorted, then walked over to Yun Xiao.

Under Si Ji’s displeased gaze, she chatted and laughed with Yun Xiao, giving him two Burying Heaven grade Calamity Sources—treasures of the Samsara Galaxy that only they could afford to give away so casually.

With the two Calamity Sources, Yun Xiao’s preparations for the battle at the Ancestor Immortal Grotto were complete.

"Half a day has passed."

His eyes slightly narrowed as he looked toward the Ancestor Immortal Grotto.

It was time to see who would represent the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects and give a definite answer.

Just then, 18 dazzling divine lights descended from the sky, appearing suddenly before the gathered crowd!

Each beam of light materialized into a peak powerhouse, each an esteemed and vast elder with an awe-inspiring aura and profound legacy!

Among them, Wan Ji recognized only one person, it was Empyyrean Emperor Chen, or rather Zu Xinchen, clad in a black robe.

"Father!"

Zu Xi and Zu Wei, too, hadn't seen their father in a long time and were somewhat excited.

Zu Xinchen had been serving at the Samsra Galaxy Federation and indeed, had little time to return.

Of the 18 divine lights, one was Empyrean Emperor Chen, and the identities of the other 17 were clear!

Evidently, they each came from one of the Samsara Galaxy's 18 Stellar Rivers, representing these Stellar Rivers within the Samsara Galaxy Federation!

This Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects was also jointly organized by them.

As the host, Empyrean Emperor Chen stood slightly forward, but Yun Xiao knew that he was not the strongest among them; the other 17 were each terrifyingly profound figures, each enshrouded in mystery and depth. ℟ä𐌽ổＢĚṥ

As these 18 figures arrived, the hundreds of thousands of disciples at the Ancestor Immortal Grotto suddenly closed their mouths and quickly fell silent.

"Father?"

Hearing Zu Xi and Zu Wei call out like this, Yun Xiao felt a bit awkward, because he had once forced Zu Wei to kneel before him, and now her father had arrived!

"I wonder if he knows?" Yun Xiao wondered.

Fortunately, after the arrival of these 18 representatives from the Samsara Galaxy Federation, their first glance was at Si Ji!

They were not Boundless Immortals, but Si Ji was.

So, here, Si Ji held the highest status!

"We greet Boundless Immortal Si Ji."

Zu Xinchen and the 17 others, with calm expressions and respectful words, addressed her.

By age and experience, Si Ji was not their equal, but now, they had to look up to her!

Si Ji was an otherworldly figure; she didn't bother with worldly manners, and spoke directly, "Your Samsra Galaxy Federation hosts the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects. Yet, the Southern Divine Dragon Realm and its lackeys have openly attacked disciples from my Harmony Divine Palace. Half a day has passed; what has been done about this?"

Wan Ji, hearing this, felt a bit nervous. Clearly, it wasn't wise for the Harmony Divine Palace to make enemies of all the Stellar Rivers.

She gently added, "This is an unprecedented event in the history of the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects, indeed causing adverse effects. The matter of dealing with it is complex. Regardless, we thank everyone for their efforts."

"Both of you," Empyrean Emperor Chen responded without showing any emotion, bowing slightly, "Regarding the handling of this matter, the Samsara Galaxy Federation has reached a conclusion. Our presence here is to invite you to the Samsara Hall at the Million Starlight Palace to witness the decision firsthand."

Si Ji, slightly irritated, replied, "Whatever the judgment is, you might as well say it here. I'm not going."

"Woah, woah!" Wan Ji quickly grabbed her, whispering urgently, "What are you doing? They’ve come personally to invite us, considering it a matter of saving face; it’s not appropriate to make a scene in public. Just go with them."

"What if I go and they use me for target practice?" Si Ji asked.

"You’re being silly," Wan Ji laughed a little. "I’ve told you, the Southern Divine Dragon Realm doesn’t have the strength to influence the entire Samsara Galaxy Federation. There are several factions within, and they’re not united."

She paused, then spoke very seriously, "Listen to me, our Harmony Divine Palace never had the qualifications to enter this circle before; integrating into the Samsara Galaxy is our best advantage. You are young and a rising star, well-positioned. If you can seize this opportunity, we will need friends for the battles ahead with the Southern Divine Dragon Realm."

"Seizing this opportunity, you mean..." Si Ji began, already understanding despite her distaste for social settings that she needed to step up.

"Youth and beauty," Wan Ji responded knowingly.

"Don’t talk nonsense." Si Ji was somewhat exasperated. Using a woman’s beauty as a weapon was taboo in the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm, and it was a notion she couldn't quite shake off.

"Don't get the wrong idea; I mean that compared to those arrogant and coarse individuals from the Southern Divine Dragon Realm, your charisma is far superior. With your talent, you don't need to charm others with your looks. You just need to stand there, speak your mind without subservience or arrogance. Those who appreciate you will naturally side with you," Wan Ji explained, then pursed her lips, adding, "If we really had to use beauty as a weapon, well, wouldn’t that young fellow just erupt with anger?"

Thinking of Yun Xiao, Si Ji couldn't help but let out a chuckle, saying impulsively, "It would be even better if that little rascal got mad."

"Tsk tsk, look at you, all smiles. You’re hopeless," Wan Ji teased.

"Shut up," Si Ji replied, her eyes hardening with resolve as she gritted her teeth, "Fine, even if it’s through a sea of flames or over mountains of blades, I’ll make my way! Is it just about stepping out of my comfort zone, making a change? I’ve become a Boundless Immortal; what do I have to fear from them?"

With that, she flew towards the 18 figures with an imposing aura, declaring, "I will accompany you to the Samsara Hall."

The Samsara Hall, the supreme location within the Million Starlight Palace, was where the elite of the Samsara Galaxy convened.

"Please!" Zu Xinchen welcomed her and announced to the gathered crowd, "The Ancestor Immortal Grotto is now open; all contending teams may enter for battle immediately!"

At last, it began.

Groups of supremely talented individuals from the Fifth Baptism Realm emerged prominently, soaring towards the Ancestor Immortal Grotto with remarkable presence.

Zu Xinchen's gaze finally rested on Zu Xi, Yun Xiao, and the others. He declared, "The host team will enter last!"
