Chapter 613

The Nirvana Immortal Emperor glanced expressionlessly at the Light God Sovereign, who nearly pissed himself in fright, hastily clamped his mouth shut, and dared not speak further.

No matter where this Azure Cloud Immortal Sect came from, their goal is surely to unify the immortal realm, even to charge up to Heaven Outside Heaven.

Then how will the Emperor conduct himself? After enduring hardships and reaching Nirvana's peak, is it merely to bow and submit to the Azure Cloud?

Therefore, no matter what, this Azure Cloud must be eradicated, and the Emperor will become the sole truth of the immortal realm.

Hearing this, the Light God Sovereign felt extreme lingering fear; having experienced this upheaval and survived a desperate situation, his mindset had not yet fully adjusted.

At this level of cultivation, familial ties, friendships, and all the seven emotions and six desires have long ceased to matter, let alone the realm of Immortal Emperor.

Just to help himself take revenge, he would clash with a mysterious expert of the same Immortal Emperor level? Impossible!

Chongshu, it's my nephew speaking without thinking; I was just muddle-headed.

Hmm, as long as you figure it out, that's good," the Nirvana Immortal Emperor nodded, then continued: "However, you make a point—this Azure Cloud Immortal Sect's origins are mysterious; we must not act rashly."

The Emperor will first rally his old troops and subordinates, then unite the forces oppressed by Azure Cloud, ally with the major sects and imperial clans, and with the momentum of the immortal realm, surely eradicate Azure Cloud in one fell swoop.

Let's start from the Ink Shadow Immortal Continent.

On the other side, in the Azure Han Immortal Continent, because many cultivators and major powers had come to observe the Light God Capital that day, the announcement of the Light God Kingdom's fall and the news that the Lingyun Immortal Dynasty relied on the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect spread instantly throughout the Azure Han Immortal Continent, immediately causing an uproar!

The Light has been utterly wiped out, an era has ended, and our Azure Han's new era and pattern are about to begin!

This isn't the point! The point is that the Lingyun Immortal Dynasty actually relies on the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect! No wonder the Light couldn't withstand a single strike; to oppose Azure Cloud is simply courting destruction.

Azure Cloud Immortal Sect! How could an immortal sect support such a minor power as Lingyun? Is this news true? It's simply unbelievable!

Of course it's true! When the armies of Lingyun and Eternal Night attacked the Light God Capital, the master of the house next to my brother's wife's sister's husband was right there on the scene!

If that's really the case, doesn't it mean the true ruler of our Azure Han is the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect? No way! As the head of the household, I must quickly prepare gifts and go to surrender, or it'll be too late… Hmm? Why are you weeping, fellow Daoist? Why not come with me?

Let's go, let's go! I'm just heartbroken over my immortal treasure—I had put everything on the Light back then… sob!

Not long after the news had not yet spread far, countless cultivators and powers of the Azure Han hastily prepared lavish gifts and headed toward the former center of the Azure Han Immortal Continent, the Light God Capital, now Azure Peace Immortal City.

Several days later, another astonishing piece of news spread without legs.

The Eternal Night God Sovereign of the Eternal Night Empire issued a decree, effective immediately, that the Eternal Night Empire and all its vassal immortal kingdoms would submit to the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect, honoring Azure Peace Immortal City as the first immortal city of the Azure Han, and honoring the city's lord, Shi Hao, as the lord of the Azure Han Immortal Continent.

Thus the entire Azure Han Immortal Continent pledged allegiance.

……

At the core of Azure Peace Immortal City, the Evergreen Immortal Palace has also been renovated anew.

They demolished the distinctive palaces and government offices built by the Light God Kingdom, rebuilt them in the style of the Azure Cloud Sect, greatly remodeled the immortal palace's main hall, and constructed a brand-new lord's residence.

In the solemn and dignified lord's residence main hall, Shi Hao sat upright in the chief seat.

Below, Lin Bai, Hua Qingyu, Lin Feng, Mu Shuixian, Lin Anye, Li Yin, Zhao Jinzhu, the Eternal Night Emperor, the Four Great War Gods—Xingkong, Luoluo, Anying, Xuantian—and the three great generals of the Azure Cloud Legion, Jun Tiantian, Zhao Huang, Fengyan, the Lingyun Empress Ouyang Ning, and others, plus the two beasts Xiao Bai and the Black Emperor, all gathered together.

Congratulations, Senior Brother, on becoming lord of Azure Peace Immortal City and lord of the Azure Han Immortal Continent," Lin Bai and the other Azure Cloud disciples first congratulated.

Establishing the city lord and the continent lord was their decision after long discussion, and they had already consulted their master and sect.

This way they could effectively control the entire Azure Han Immortal Continent and perfectly complete the sect's tempering mission—a strategy that kills two birds with one stone.

Being able to seize the Azure Han Immortal Continent is the result of everyone's joint effort and the help of the sect's seniors; I, Shi Hao, as the senior disciple of the master and senior brother of the Azure Cloud disciples, will absolutely not take credit.

Once the tempering mission ends, I will report the entire process to the sect in detail, and then we will all evaluate merits and distribute rewards." Shi Hao, who had ascended to the city lord's position, remained true to his original intention and did not become arrogant.

Senior Brother, we all believe in you; next we should strive to develop Azure Peace Immortal City and the Azure Han Immortal Continent, on one hand continually giving back to the sect, and on the other hand continuing to complete the tempering mission," Hua Qingyu stood up and said.

Lin Bai nodded in agreement: "Junior Sister is right; just the Azure Han Immortal Continent isn't enough—our goal is the sea of stars!"

Good! Let's work together and create brilliance again!" After saying that, Shi Hao looked toward the direction where Li Yin and the others were, then spoke again: "Junior Brother Li, Junior Brother Zhao, what are your plans?"

In this overthrow of the Light God Kingdom, you have made great contributions, and unifying the Azure Han also carries significant merit; why not stay and jointly control the Azure Han, and complete the sect's tempering mission once more?

Hearing this, Li Yin felt embarrassed and shook his head: "No, Senior Brother, I and Brother Zhao have also created a little force in the Obscure Realm Forbidden Zone; Brother Zhao's master, Elder Kind Treasure, is still waiting for us to return—he's about to be worked to death, urging us day and night."

I intend to properly develop our force, then seize the Golden Feather Immortal Continent where the forbidden zone lies, complete the sect's tempering mission, and with the Eternal Night's aid, our chances will be much greater.

But by then we'll still need some help from you, Senior Brother.

Don't worry, Junior Brother Li; we're all family, and when family is in trouble, relatives from all sides will support them—we'll definitely go lend a hand," Shi Hao said firmly.

Just as his words fell, Zhao Jinzhu's waist-worn transmission talisman chimed with the voice of Elder Kind Treasure: ［You two little brats, when are you coming back?! Hurry up, you're about to work this old man to death—whatever, whoever wants to guard the Slaughter God Pavilion can do it! ］

Zhao Jinzhu hastily stowed the talisman into his spatial immortal ring, embarrassed, stood up, and said: "My master is urging me again…"

Seeing this, Li Yin also rose and bade farewell: "Senior Brother, Senior Brother Lin, Sister Hua, Elder Mu, Elder Lin, General Jun, General Zhao, General Feng, Lord Xiao Bai, Lord Black Emperor—we'll take our leave now; we'll meet again another day."

After bidding farewell, Li Yin and Zhao Jinzhu departed with the Eternal Night Emperor and the Four Great War Gods of Eternal Night.

I can't elaborate further, but there are still some people waiting for them outside the immortal city: three million elite elite immortal soldiers of the Eternal Night Empire, plus some warriors and strongmen who swear to follow the Eternal Night Emperor unto death—these are the foundation of the Slaughter God Pavilion's development.
