"This... is this a battle I can even participate in?"
That person's face turned ashen, but he didn't say much more.
It wasn't that he looked down on Han Xuanji; on the contrary, he actually respected Han Xuanji, the Great Heavenly Venerable, very much. However, this was no child's play; it wasn't a simple contest of combat power.
If the Immortal Realm's side lost, all living beings in the Immortal Realm would be slaughtered or become meat on a chopping block.
"The Great Heavenly Venerable has attained the Limitless Dao; his Dao techniques are mysterious and profound, and his foundation is deep!
How can his depth be judged by age alone?
Furthermore, the Demon Ancestor invited the Lord of Greed to assist him precisely because he fears the Great Heavenly Venerable's power."
In the Heavenly Court, there were also those who held Han Xuanji in high esteem.
That day, Han Xuanji had repelled the Demon Race with effortless ease. Not only were Han Xuanji's Disciples filled with passion, but everyone who had witnessed that scene—even Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal Level Cultivators—was moved, their hearts filled with immense admiration.
Before long, arguments began to arise within the hall.
In reality, they didn't understand the comparison of combat power among Limitless Primordial beings, but most people still didn't have high hopes for Han Xuanji.
After all, the accumulation of time was a very persuasive factor at any moment.
Although they weren't Limitless Primordial experts, they knew that at this Realm, no matter how high one's talent, one still needed time to grow.
The many immortals and gods lost their usual composure, making the Hall of Miraculous Mist—which represented the supreme authority of the Immortal Realm—seem somewhat noisy.
From atop the imperial throne, the Heavenly Emperor's gaze took in all the reactions of the immortals and gods in the hall.
He didn't immediately stop the argument. In fact, even the Heavenly Emperor hadn't expected the Lord of Greed to appear, nor had he expected the Demon Ancestor to be so decisive as to invite such a formidable enemy into the fray.
Was he truly not afraid of shooting himself in the foot?
At this time, someone suggested whether the Heavenly Emperor could invite the various Dao Venerables of the Immortal Realm to act.
For example, the Taishang Dao Venerable and Yuanshi Dao Venerable. As ancient legendary figures of the Immortal Realm who had left behind many legacies, they surely wouldn't want to see the Immortal Realm destroyed.
However, the Heavenly Emperor shook his head and didn't say much.
Regarding certain truths, the fewer people who knew, the better.
The situation of the Immortal Realm wasn't as simple as many immortals and gods thought. Existences like the Demon Ancestor and the Lord of Greed were not uncommon in Chaos.
It could be said that if many great experts hadn't emerged from the Immortal Realm, they wouldn't have been able to keep the wealth left behind by the Immortal Ancestor for a long time.
The Dao Venerables like Taishang, Yuanshi, and Tongtian were indeed direct Disciples of the Immortal Ancestor and supreme beings born and raised in the Immortal Realm. Their strength was unfathomable, but they had long since transcended worldly affairs.
Their connection to the Immortal Realm wasn't very close, not to mention that the whereabouts of many were becoming increasingly elusive; their true bodies might have even been away from the Immortal Realm for too long.
Like the Dao Ancestor, who had already left this part of Chaos; even if they wanted to invite him back, it wouldn't be easy.
Unlike most immortals and gods, the Heavenly Emperor felt that Han Xuanji wasn't that simple. His Dao was profound, and his strength was difficult to fathom.
Most important was this composure.
Even these immortals and gods could see the origin of the Lord of Greed, let alone Han Xuanji. And the fact that Han Xuanji had made no move until now—this indifference was the greatest proof. Only when the arguments subsided slightly did the Heavenly Emperor slowly speak.
His voice wasn't loud, but it instantly drowned out all other noise, clearly reaching the ears of every immortal and god:
"Great Heavenly Venerable Xuantian's Dao is profound and his fortune is vast, beyond common logic. All of you, be silent."
"If the Great Heavenly Venerable intends to, he will naturally take action."
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall fell silent. Many immortals and gods showed looks of worry, unsure of the Immortal Realm's future fate.
Many of them were already bound to the Heavenly Court and the fate of the Immortal Realm.
If the Immortal Realm existed, they existed; if the Immortal Realm perished, they perished. Unless they were willing to abandon most of their cultivation, but that would not only mean a drastic drop in power but also a shattered Dao Heart, with no future achievements.
At the same time.
At the border of the Immortal and Demon domains, the great battle had reached a fever pitch. On the Demon Race's side, seeing the Heavenly Court dispatch three Powerful Experts, another terrifying existence appeared named the Heaven-Devouring Devil Emperor. His strength was horrifying, as he was also a Powerful Expert in the Celestial Golden Immortal Realm.
Han Xuanji looked up; the three Emperors of the Heavenly Court were quite strong, but unfortunately, the enemies they faced were even more terrifying.
Although the Great Heavenly Demon had been easily suppressed by Han Xuanji before, his strength was actually such that he had few rivals in the Celestial Golden Immortal Realm. Furthermore, with an Incarnation of the Lord of Greed present, the three Emperors could only struggle to hold on.
Fortunately, in the end, several other reclusive Primordial Chaos Taiji experts intervened, repelling this wave of attacks.
And these individuals were people Han Xuanji was quite familiar with.
One was the Human Race's Hunyuan expert Qin Wuming, and the other two were reclusive experts with Daoist manors in the Thirty-Three Heavens.
"The Immortal Realm still has some foundation."
Han Xuanji nodded silently.
Seeing this, Li Taiqing and the others couldn't help but show joy.
"That's great."
"It seems the Immortal Realm has quite a few capable people."
"It seems Master won't have to take action."
Everyone exclaimed one after another. Xiao Hong used great magic to project the scene into the Void Realm, allowing them to watch the show.
Lin Potian felt a bit of regret for some reason; he had wanted to see Han Xuanji take action once more.
Xiao Bai laughed and said:
"Hehe, I even saw that kid Jiang Hao. I wonder if he's trembling in fear."
Xiao Jin glanced at Xiao Bai and said crossly:
"I think you were pretty nervous at the beginning too."
Seeing this, Han Xuanji didn't pay any more attention and continued his cultivation. Having stepped into the Middle Stage of Limitless Primordial, his strength still needed to be stabilized.
He would first deduce all his Divine Abilities to their limits...
On the other side.
"Whew..."
Emperor Ziwei let out a long breath. Although they had won, he still felt a lingering fear. Because they had exerted all their strength, while the opponent had been at ease. Rather than saying they had repelled the opponent, it was more like the opponent had easily withdrawn.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoists, for your assistance."
Emperor Ziwei looked at the three who had come to their aid. Emperor Xuntian had the most straightforward personality. At this moment, he showed no joy of victory. The Lord of Greed was just an Incarnation, yet it had left him helpless, even making him feel that his own Dao Fruit was unstable.
"If the Lord of Greed's true body were to arrive in person..."
Thinking of this, several people also felt many worries.
They didn't know what the Heavenly Emperor's plan would be, or if that mysterious Great Heavenly Venerable would take action. For the vast majority of Cultivators, they couldn't understand the danger of the collision of Dao Laws in the battle just now. They only saw that under the actions of the three Emperors of the Heavenly Court, several reclusive Senior experts had provided timely assistance, and the Immortal Realm side had finally repelled those Soul-shuddering Chaos Fiends and terrifying Heavenly Demons!
They won, and that was enough.
Amidst the waves of cheering, some devout Cultivators even had tears in their eyes. They bowed towards the Heavenly Court, thanking the Heavens for protection and the Heavenly Emperor for his mercy in sending such powerful Emperors to guard the territory.
"We won."
Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief and acknowledged the Heavenly Court a bit more, his hostility towards the Golden Crow Clan diminishing significantly.
It should be known that the Golden Crow Clan not only had a grudge against Li Taiqing but also had some Karma with him.
His Immortal Bone had once been gouged out, which was inextricably linked to some people from the Golden Crow Clan.
However, those people had long since been personally delivered to him by the Golden Crow Clan. Their attitude in admitting their mistake was very sincere, and they had offered many great gifts to the Jiang Family and him, making it difficult for Jiang Hao to vent his anger.
Originally, Jiang Hao had thought about attacking the Golden Crow Clan after achieving Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal.
Thinking about it now, he decided to let it go.
It really wasn't that he was afraid of this Golden Crow Clan Emperor...
One day.
While Han Xuanji was deducing his Divine Abilities, his heart suddenly stirred.
It turned out that the Heavenly Emperor had personally come to visit.
