Yuan Tian Lake gazed at the golden-robed man before him and instinctively clasped his fists in greeting, "Sect Leader, your arrival is most timely."
The man in golden robes was Yuan Wenjian, the esteemed Sect Master of the Primordius Sword Sect.
"Elder Tianchi, what on earth transpired in the city? How did you come to be in such dire straits?" Yuan Wenjian's penetrating gaze betrayed his shock at the sight of Yuan Tianchi's wretched condition.
Despite receiving Yuan Tianchi's urgent summons for assistance, Yuan Wenjian had been left in the dark regarding the specifics of the calamity that had befallen Primordius Sacred City.
At present, Yuan Wenjian was still in the dark about the exact events that had unfolded in Primordius Holy City.
Nonetheless, Yuan Wenjian was well aware of Yuan Tianchi's formidable prowess. A seasoned sword cultivator at the zenith of the Mahayana Realm within the Hunyuan Sword Sect, Yuan Tianchi had reached this pinnacle long before Yuan Wenjian himself.
Without leveraging the Sect Master's hidden assets, Yuan Wenjian would not confidently claim he could best Yuan Tianchi in combat.
It was beyond him who would have the audacity to wreak havoc at the Celestial Gate Conference and reduce Yuan Tianchi to such a pitiable condition.
"Sect Master, the Divine Realm's Human Sovereign has descended upon the Shattering Immortal Universe..." Yuan Tian Lake inhaled deeply before meticulously recounting the events that had transpired in Primordius Holy City.
"What formidable audacity from the Realm of the Gods' Human Sovereign. I was on the verge of breaching the Realm of the Gods once more in search of the mythical immortal tablet, but to think the Human Sovereign from the Realm of the Gods would preemptively strike the Immortal Shattering Universe!" Yuan Wenjian's entire being surged with a lethal intent. "Summon the ten great immortal sects immediately, raze the Danilo Lujan Cult, and capture the Human Sovereign of the Divine Realm."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Tianchi felt compelled to interject, "Sect Master, you must reconsider..."
"Hmm? Why not?"
A displeased expression crept across Yuan Wenjian's face as his eyes darkened.
Yuan Tianchi gave a bitter laugh and said, "Does the sect leader know how I was defeated by the Divine Region's Human Emperor?"
Yuan Wenjian was taken aback.
Yuan Tianchi had mastered the supreme divine ability of the Chaos Origin Sword Sect, the Chaos Origin Sword Shift. Even when facing a cultivator at the peak of the Mahayana Realm, he would normally be invincible.
Even as the sect master of the Chaos Origin Sword Sect, Yuan Wenjian would struggle to break through the Chaos Origin Sword Shift and defeat Yuan Tianchi without resorting to the sect's ultimate technique.
Surely, even the Human Ruler of the Realm of the Gods, despite being a peak overlord, couldn't have inflicted such heavy injuries on Yuan Tianchi in such a brief encounter, right?
"The Human Ruler of the Realm of the Gods utilized the Immortal Ascension Technique to call forth a green-clothed sword immortal from the heavens. Had it not been for the fact that this sword immortal was an old friend of our Primordius Sword Sect's Ancestral Master, I would have met my end, both body and soul," Yuan Tianchi explained, emphasizing each word.
"This... This is impossible!"
Yuan Wenjian's face contorted with shock at Yuan Tianchi's revelation.
Since becoming the Sect Master of the Primordius Sword Sect, Yuan Wenjian had tried to perform the Immortal Ascension Technique over ten times without success.
In the Immortal Breaking Universe, where the path to immortality was severed, the Immortal Ascension Technique was thought to be unusable. How, then, could the Human Ruler of the Realm of the Gods have managed to summon immortals?
Furthermore...
As far as Yuan Wenjian knew, the Realm of the Gods was a minor universe where the birth of immortals was exceedingly rare. There had never been any immortals, nor was there an Immortal Breaking Technique to speak of.
If the Divine Realm had the power to beckon immortals, how could the Shattering Immortal Universe ever hope to challenge the Divine Realm?
"I, too, am reluctant to believe it, but all the cultivators of the Primordial Chaos Sacred City have witnessed it. How could it be a fabrication?"
Yuan Tianchi offered a wry smile and said, "The Green-Robed Sword Immortal has already warned me. If our Hunyuan Sword Sect even thinks about meddling with the Human Sovereign Realm of the Realm of the Gods, he won't hesitate to disregard the Patriarch's wishes."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Wenjian's face darkened considerably. The Immortal Ascension Technique might not be their true form, but it was still far beyond the capabilities of any Great Cheng cultivator to contend with. And that's not all...
The azure-clad sword immortal, summoned by the Human Emperor of the Realm of the Gods, was none other than an old friend of our Chaos Origin Sword Sect's ancestor, who had attained immortality. Put simply, we're currently powerless against the Human Sovereign of the Realm of the Gods, let alone capable of invading their realm to seek out the fabled immortal monolith.
"Elder Tian Chi, what's our course of action?" Yuan Wenjian asked, rubbing his temples as he pondered the formidable Human Ruler of the Divine Realm.
The Human Sovereign Realm of the Divine Realm was a formidable force, rivaling the pinnacle of the Mahayana Realm. With the ability to summon immortals using the Immortal Ascension Technique, he was an unstoppable force in the present Immortal Breaking Universe. His intentions were clearly malevolent.
Not only did he disrupt the Immortal Sect Conference, but he also eliminated six Mahayana Realm cultivators, all of whom were masters from the Ten Great Immortal Sects. If the Human Emperor of the Realm of the Gods continued his rampage in the Immortal Shattering Universe, the fallout would be catastrophic.
"Let's bide our time and see if we can open a dialogue with the Human Emperor of the Realm of the Gods," Yuan Tianchi suggested, his gaze sharpening. "Considering the Human Sovereign Realm's ability to summon immortals with the Immortal Ascension Technique, perhaps our Primordius Sword Sect could reach out to our ascended ancestors using the same method?"
Yuan Wenjian's eyes sparkled at the prospect. If the Human Ruler of the Realm of the Gods could invoke the Art of Ascension to bring forth immortals, might there have been a shift in the Immortal Breaking Universe that reestablished the once-severed path to immortality?
If that were indeed the case, why would the Immortal Breaking Universe launch an invasion of the Realm of the Gods just for an immortal tablet offering the chance at immortality?
"Elder Tian Chi, please handle the affairs of Primordius Saint City. I will head back there first."
Yuan Wenjian, barely containing his excitement, disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Yuan Tianchi, witnessing Yuan Wenjian's hasty departure, couldn't help but show a look of resignation in his aged eyes. In the day's conflict, the Divine Realm's Human Sovereign Realm had slain six Mahayana Realm cultivators. Each was a prominent figure within the Ten Great Immortal Sects, including the Limitless Immortal Sect's Old Monster Wu Tian and Taiyi's Green River Spiritual Master. The sects behind these individuals were unlikely to let the matter slide so easily.
Taking a deep breath, Yuan Tianchi swiftly descended toward the Primordial Chaos Sacred City below.
...
In the clear skies of the Primordial Heavenly Territory, three figures sliced through the air like streaks of light. These were none other than Peter Parker and his two companions who had departed from the city.
"Human Emperor Peter Parker, with your identity now revealed, the ten great immortal sects of the Immortal Breaking Universe, spearheaded by their leaders, will not let you off the hook easily. What's your plan?" Xue Yuntian inquired, looking up at Peter Parker with a grave expression.
Though they had managed to flee the city, their predicament was far from over. They were likely to face the wrath of the entire Immortal Breaking Universe. Despite Peter Parker's formidable power, capable of besting a peak Great Vehicle cultivator like Yuan Tian Lake, taking on four adversaries single-handedly was a daunting task.
It's worth noting that the Immortal Breaking Universe boasted five peak Great Vehicle cultivators, not to mention the reclusive ancient beings.
Without additional contingencies, Peter Parker might find himself overwhelmed in a stand against the entire Immortal Breaking Universe.
Peter Parker responded with a serene smile, "No worries. Let's head to Danilo Lujan's sect first."
