The participating giant tree of heaven became an ancient temple, named “Tianfo”, heroically guarding the dragon realm.

Three honored sea clan emperor lords, with their backs to the ancient temple and facing the human clan, possessed a momentum as majestic and unyielding as mountains.

But with the simultaneous move of five True Monarchs, in just one encounter, the three honored emperor lords were already forced to retreat!

With the situation at the East Sea Dragon Palace settled, they naturally knew they should fight for time, but who could they get time from?

Cao Ji, Zhu Sui, Yu Liyang, Peng Chongjian, Yue Jie, who could hold them back?

At this moment, a dragon’s roar like thunder boomed: “Emperor lords may die, Longchanling cannot be without! Those who stain the Tianfo Temple with blood today, will bring about their own end in Taiyong!”

Taiyong’s body shook and transformed, once again appearing as a ten thousand zhang golden dragon!

In the depths of the thunderclouds, the dragon swung its tail, suddenly breaking the seal and striking open a spatial rift. Its dragon whiskers swayed in the wind and rain, unexpectedly sending the near-death Zhong Xi and severely injured Xi Yang away. And with the intertwining of thunder and lightning, this crack was immediately sewn back together.

“Irrigate the dragon realm with my dragon blood, how about that?!”

Taiyong carried the wind and rain with its enormous dragon body, swallowing thunder and spitting lightning. Its golden dragon pupils, as large as houses, stared angrily at Cao Ji and the others: “I will exchange myself for one Wei Xun!”

Three thousand li of Longchanling, the sky above was completely covered with thunderclouds.

The momentum of an absolute peak expert fighting with all their might was more terrifying than the sky collapsing and the earth splitting.

But after sending away the two honored emperor lords, Taiyong did not pounce towards the human clan’s great army. Instead, it circled the tree and went up, the dragon coiling around the ancient temple.

The brilliant light surging from its golden scales poured onto the Tianfo Temple, like flowing gold lacquer.

Taiyong’s dragon body seemed to become an eternal sculpture of the Tianfo Temple, combining with it, becoming solid and inspiring great power.

Thunder roared, dragons chanted, wind howled, woosh woosh like striking the bell of fate.

The great sound of heaven and earth made the listeners’ hearts and spirits submit.

Inside the vast Tianfo Tree Temple, a grand bell and great chime sounded like chanting scriptures.

It was the cultivators of this temple, combining their voices with Taiyong.

The dragon head lifted high, the wind and rain roared at the dome top, like an angry sea.

The dragon body embraced the temple, the golden glory outside the temple stirred, like facing a prosperous scene.

The wind, rain, thunder, and lightning there seemed like guardians from outside heaven. The ground here surged with golden lotuses, a pure land’s wonderful gate.

This world actually contained such contradictory divisions, and within the weaving of infinite great power, it created the “Dragon’s Breath Fetal Treasure Great Vajra Realm” which represented Taiyong’s highest defense achievement in this life!

Without the support of the Tianfo Temple, without the determination to exhaust all principles of the Dao, even with Taiyong’s power, he would not be able to achieve this level.

And his purpose was already clearer than ever — he couldn’t gain the time he sought from the human clan’s Dao-deriving experts, nor could he hope for Zhong Xi and Xi Yang, hence he sought it himself, actually using his Dao body to guard the precious monastery!

Using his own sacrifice to win time for the Tianfo Temple, and for the Xuan Shen emperor lord Rui Chong and Wuyuan emperor lord Zhan Shou who were currently rushing over.

His words of exchanging himself for Wei Xun were a warning to these human clan Dao-deriving experts in front of the Tianfo Temple — you may leave!

The sea clan painfully lost Yue Gui Hai, and the human clan also suffered a disaster in the archipelago.

The human clan lost one Wei Xun, the sea clan lost one Taiyong.

Let’s call it even!

Now retreat, neither side loses anything!

But Taiyong’s angry roar did not receive a response.

Or rather, Cao Ji and the others did not respond with their mouths.

For an existence destined to perish by the Dao, for those who are no longer among the living, what use are words?

Cao Ji had only one arm left, but he reached out his palm towards the high sky. His only remaining hand… outside the hand was an illusory armored hand woven from surging qi and blood and vast Yuan force, and amidst the wind chisel, rain strike, thunder boom, and lightning hit, it constantly expanded, actually grasping form from the formless, accurately seizing hold of the dragon’s tail from the dark, thick thunderclouds!

A divine dragon sees its head but not its tail, today its tail must be complete.

He seized the dragon’s tail and pulled it outwards, wrestling directly with Taiyong, wanting to pull this dragon away from the body of the Tianfo Temple.

If not fight now, when will they?

Only the roar of thunder could be heard intermittently, the electric light broke through, and the rules of heaven and earth were like flying ash. The space near the entire Tianfo Temple, especially in the outermost ring where the Dao-deriving forces collided the most, actually showed scattered black holes!

Powerful human clan experts like Chong Guang, Yang Feng, and others had no choice but to bring the great army to retreat.

The great war was not yet over, the Dao-deriving battle for life and death was also a struggle against time.

That figure of the hunched Zhu Sui was still hunched. He held a lamp forward, his steps difficult. But outside his body, a white flame gradually ignited, and his eyes were also ignited by the white flame. He actually just walked into the wind wall and rain curtain, walked into the golden glory and knotted lotuses… everything seemed to cause him no obstacle.

He just walked near the Tianfo Temple like this, and finally just walked inside Taiyong’s dragon body like this!

Even powerful as Taiyong, even when he formed the Dragon’s Breath Fetal Treasure Great Vajra Realm, and was well prepared to welcome everything, he still let out a painful shriek at this moment! His great will was being torn apart bit by bit!

Just at this moment, Yu Liyang strolled forward, his large sleeves fluttering, and he pinched a peach blossom with his fingers… like pinching a peach-colored chess piece, and with the Dragon’s Breath Fetal Treasure Great Vajra Realm as the chessboard, he placed this piece.

For a time, the golden glory swayed, and the golden lotuses withered.

Taiyong’s painstakingly constructed Dragon’s Breath Fetal Treasure Great Vajra Realm was like an illusion at this moment.

Peng Chongjian walked forward during this gap, flipped his palm and pulled down the black hairpin on his head, using it as a dagger, stabbing through the so-called “Dragon’s Breath Fetal Treasure Great Vajra”. And his body became a river of blood, howling and pouncing towards the Tianfo Temple. The river of blood was like a blood python, and also like Taiyong earlier, coiling around the temple and going up.

The blood python entwined the dragon’s body, dyeing the golden glory red.

Taiyong said he would stain the Tianfo Temple with blood, but the Blood River True Monarch couldn’t wait and came to help him realize it first.

All this sounds complex, but a Dao-deriving war can hardly be measured by time anymore.

Above the deep thunderclouds covering the sky, a huge white eye appeared. Its white pupil in the middle was like the sea, howling with great divine power.

The Xuan Shen emperor lord Rui Chong was about to rush over and unleashed her power one step ahead!

But also at this moment, Yue Jie’s eight zhang spear fiercely stabbed into the dragon’s body, and even into the Tianfo Temple!

“Drink—ah!”

The ancient war armor on General Yang Gu’s body all emitted the force of a collision that was hard to bear. Yue Jie’s body was like a Vajra, his stance steady, holding the spear with both hands, biting his teeth and roaring angrily— with a posture that seemed to overturn the sky, he forcefully lifted the roots of the Tianfo Temple tree that were entwined for who knows how many thousands of li!

Boom boom boom boom boom!

Taiyong’s powerful and unparalleled absolute peak dragon body collapsed like a mountain range! Collapsing zhang by zhang!

Rumble rumble rumble rumble!

Longchanling was collapsing.

The entire Saha Dragon Domain was shaking!

Life is such a wonderful thing, and the world and living beings always have inseparable connections.

While the Saha Dragon Domain was shaking, the Mirage Realm also gained great growth.

Taiyong died, and his infinite vitality still returned to heaven and earth.

The white eye belonging to the Xuan Shen emperor lord Rui Chong in the sky flowed with indescribable sorrow.

Her sorrow was not only for Taiyong!

But at the same time as the dragon tail in Cao Ji’s palm collapsed, he had already stood with the soldier-evil pulled as a great bow, looked up at the sky, and shot an arrow at Xuan Shen! No matter your sorrow or not, he only wanted you to feel pain!

The white pupil closed its eyes, and the divine power scattered and disappeared. The Xuan Shen emperor lord Rui Chong immediately exited the Saha Dragon Domain.

Was it because the general situation could not be reversed, so she chose to give up?

Jiang Wang was in the middle of the great army, silently observing all this with his Qian Yang Red Pupils. If he could capture even a hair of the details of the Dao-deriving war, it would be a great harvest.

He saw Taiyong die, the death of an emperor lord like an avalanche. Surging life collapsed, vast Dao principles shattered, almost infinitely endless vitality scattered and returned to heaven and earth.

They all say that ants do not measure themselves, that mayflies are tiny in the vast sea, but the flourishing and withering of grass and trees, what is different from this absolute peak life and death?

He saw that the Tianfo Temple was already tilted, the old tree’s roots broken. How many sea clan members inside had exhausted their life breath. The holy temple collapsed, and the ancient layout of Longchanling, facing the Sandalwood Tree Sea from afar, also seemed to collapse and scatter.

Had the Saha Dragon Domain already been overturned?

In this Mirage Realm, had the human clan just won such an unprecedented great victory?

Jiang Wang had an unreal feeling in his heart.

He saw that Cao Ji and the other True Monarchs did not stop, after killing Taiyong and overturning the Tianfo Temple, they still used their respective methods to wash Longchanling with terrifying power.

They seemed determined to level this three thousand li mountain ridge to the ground.

Longchanling was broken through, the Tianfo Temple was overturned, and the sea clan in the Mirage Realm thus lost another base, a base that had been operating for tens of thousands of years.

What was left here?

Jiang Wang couldn’t help but think, a base operating for tens of thousands of years, only ending at this? Although they had fought their way here, Longchanling was indeed vast, majestic, firm, and strong. It had checkpoints like the twelve pure lands and eighteen evil prisons, arrangements like mountain-guarding Vajras and ridge-protecting Galans.

Furthermore, it had the Tianfo Tree Temple which was enough to support the dragon clan emperor lord Taiyong, it couldn’t be said to be not powerful!

The human clan fought their way in with an absolute advantage in power, but the victory was by no means easy.

But compared to the tens of thousands of years… these were still not thick enough.

What was left here?

Cao Ji and the other five Dao-deriving experts seemed to want to chisel Longchanling flat and shatter the Saha Dragon Domain. They seemed to be forcing something!

As various thoughts turned in his heart, the path-deviant flower suspended in his inner mansion, which had already bloomed, suddenly shook.

The path-deviant flower, from its petals to its stem, was completely divided into two clear colors, black and white. It grew inversely from the dome of the inner mansion, and it emitted a clear glory. The entire second inner mansion, countless inner mansion rooms, were also divided because of this, half black and half white.

When its petals shook, it was extremely subtle.

But it made Jiang Wang suddenly alert.

He vaguely felt that something was changing in this world named “Saha Dragon Domain”. A desolate, ancient, and great aura seemed to be reviving!

Before he could grasp that feeling, Cao Ji had already waved his hand: “Go!”

This great Qi famous general, who was now acting as the Marshal, took over the army for the first time and was not stingy with the army’s power. He decisively gathered the soldier-evil, turned it into a long arrow, broke through the realm, and left!

The several Dao-deriving experts who were originally wantonly unleashing their power in Longchanling also scattered. Just like startled birds in a deep forest, the flock scattered and flew.

Like other cultivators, Jiang Wang was in the army formation, completely giving up his self-thinking and dedicating all his power.

Only when the great army exited the Saha Dragon Domain and reorganized their formation in the “Jiyou Battlefield”, which had already become a wasteland, did he return from being a part of the soldier-evil to being himself.

But the heavy oppressive feeling covering his heart not only did not dissipate, but became stronger.

He actually still felt the shaking of the Saha Dragon Domain, as if some indescribable enormous object was turning over.

Know that this was across the realm river!

The realm river of the Mirage Realm was an existence that completely separated the realm domains. The waves of that domain should have no involvement in this realm whatsoever.

Unless… the change in the Saha Dragon Domain at this moment influenced the entire Mirage Realm.

What exactly happened, something even bigger than the death of a Dao-deriving expert?!

Jiang Wang looked towards Yu Liyang.

Yu Liyang stood with his hands behind his back, leisurely gazing at the Saha Dragon Domain from the other side of the realm river. Sensing Jiang Wang’s gaze, he did not turn his head, only asked: “What do you think maintains the balance of the Mirage Realm?”

Jiang Wang furrowed his brows.

The reason he furrowed his brows was not that this problem was too complex, but too simple.

Anyone who has waged war in the Mirage Realm, any cultivator perhaps, could say one or two things about the balance of the war situation in the Mirage Realm.

Nothing more than the East Sea Dragon Palace, Saha Dragon Domain, and Yue Gui Hai, against Tianjing Country, Cang Wu Realm, and Futo Pure Land.

Nothing more than the sea clan’s great army against the human clan’s great army.

Nothing more than the several True Kings who are stationed in the Mirage Realm year-round against the True Persons.

Nothing more than the sea clan who yearn for the present world and the human clan cultivators who go to sea to guard the borders.

Nothing more than the sea clan emperor lords and human clan True Monarchs who occasionally appear.

But these answers were all too simple, not worth Yu Liyang putting it as a problem.

What else could there be?

The collision of the human clan and the sea clan’s respective great situations? The confrontation of two great civilizations?

“Peach Blossom Immortal is indeed extremely patient with Marquis Wu’an…” In the void, words appeared again on the blank nameless book.

Zhuo Qingru moved slightly towards Jiang Wang’s side without changing her expression.

Then he heard Yu Liyang’s voice adding: “Let me change the question. From the Human-Dragon War in the Middle Ancient Era until now, what power do you think has been confronting each other here in the Mirage Realm?”

From the Middle Ancient Era, from the war after the Human Emperor drove away the Dragon Emperor, a confrontation that has continued until now!

What else could there be?

Qi Country has not existed for this long, even Fishing Sea Tower has not existed for this long.

The absolute majority of those who are slaughtering on the Mirage Realm battlefield today did not appear in the Middle Ancient Era.

This of course includes Cao Ji, includes Yu Liyang… even includes Zhu Sui!

What is left then?

Jiang Wang murmured: “Saha Dragon Domain, East Sea Dragon Palace, Cang Wu Realm, Tianjing Country?”

The reason he did not mention Yue Gui Hai and Futo Pure Land was because these two bases appeared later. And throughout history, they have both been replaced.

Only Saha Dragon Domain and the other three, since ancient times, seem to have existed forever!

Yu Liyang nodded slightly: “Marquis Wu’an has just understood the point.”

He was still about to elaborate on something, but then stopped, raised his eyes: “Look!”

Jiang Wang then saw that on the opposite side of the realm river, the vast and boundless Saha Dragon Domain had actually disappeared! It was not that the realm river had shifted, because he did not feel the fluctuations of the realm river shifting, and no other realms appeared on the opposite side of the realm river. Instead, there was only a piece of empty nothingness.

It was a huge empty hole that suddenly appeared within the vast Mirage Realm!

What happened?

Before Jiang Wang could ask, he saw a tin staff on the other shore of the realm river, in that huge empty hole!

The staff body was straight, with spiral tree patterns on it.

The staff head was nine dragons interlocked.

The staff tail was a dragon tail, but the scales and whiskers had all fallen off like sharp spears.

This staff just quietly hung in that empty hole, but it carried an ancient and great aura that enveloped all living beings who gazed at it.

Seeing this tin staff, they felt panic and a desire to bow!

“What’s wrong? Where did the Saha Dragon Domain go?” In the army formation, someone asked in a panic they couldn’t hide.

Jiang Wang also had this doubt, but he heard Yu Liyang’s voice—

“This is the Saha Dragon Domain.”

This free and easy Peach Blossom Immortal’s tone became so solemn for the first time: “Tianfo’s weapon, the Saha Dragon Staff!”

It was this that has been confronting the human clan since ancient times!
