Chapter 580: Chapter 15 “Three Heroes Battle Lu Bu?
Wang Sheng’s victory had once again stabilized the already somewhat turbulent situation.
However, once a massive wave began to swell, it couldn’t simply halt on command.
This was the momentum, the rules of the starry sky destined these two worlds for a life or death struggle.
In the new calendar year 39, March.
Nearly a year had passed since the last attack.
This year, the sea was calm, no enemies struck again, and it seemed that the tranquility of old times had returned.
But Wang Sheng dared not let his guard down.
“Half a year ago, we could have let two Eighth Realm powerhouses pass through, but they have not shown up yet… The situation is becoming more dangerous. Planet Will, how many Eighth Realm experts can pass through the interdimensional passageway now?”
[Three!]
“Three can pass through already? Will there be more?”
Wang Sheng felt the pressure.
Three Eighth Realm, and they were three fully prepared Eighth Realm experts, not something that could be easily dealt with.
If there were more, even he might not be certain of victory.
But Planet Will did bring him some good news.
[There won’t be more. The arrival of three Eighth Realms is only because the Kui Tian Monarch left means behind after coming. Otherwise, no matter how much time passed, only one could cross.]
Wang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief; with three, although there was pressure, they were not impossible to deal with, at least there was a chance.
But before he could fully relax, Planet Will dropped another bad piece of news.
[However, if they leave means behind this time, the Eighth Realm will pass through unobstructed.]
“Unobstructed Eighth Realm, does that mean any number of Eighth Realm experts could come through?”
[Not any number, but dozens wouldn’t pose any problem.]
“And the Ninth Realm?”
[That’s definitely impossible. The Ninth Realm is fundamentally different from the Eighth Realm; it’s not something simple means can handle.]
The Ninth Realm was still restricted.
Wang Sheng’s heart eased quite a bit; he feared that the means of three Eighth Realm experts could summon the Ninth Realm.
Facing the Eighth Realm, he felt there was hope, but facing the Ninth Realm, he was not so confident.
Those were monsters that had cultivated for thousands of years, with higher realms and more experience than him.
Just thinking about it indicated how difficult they would be to deal with.
“It’s good that the Ninth Realm cannot come, but still, we must be prepared.”
Even if Planet Will said they could not come, he would not take it lightly; after all, Planet Will had never seen a Ninth Realm powerhouse, and no one knew if there were unknown means.
Planet Will agreed.
[Indeed, we should take precautions, but for now, prepare for battle. The interdimensional passageway has reached its capacity limit. The Chaotic Realm surely knows this as well. Waiting further would only give us more time to prepare, they will not allow this.]
Wang Sheng nodded, without denial.
He had long been accumulating his forces.
New calendar year 39, April, Chaotic Realm.
“The ones going this time are the Martial Arts True Monarch, Heavenly Demon True Monarch, and Heavenly Illusion Monarch. Are all three of you ready?”
This had long been agreed upon.
A top-tier True Monarch, accompanied by two others.
However, originally, Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch was to go, but it had been changed to Martial Arts True Monarch.
“I was supposed to go, but it turned out to be Martial Arts. What a pity!” Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch seemed dissatisfied, as he was the True Monarch who most loved challenging formidable enemies.
“There’s no need for such sentiment, Ten Thousand Beasts Monarch. This is just the beginning of the war; there will be more enemies later. Martial Arts True Monarch going this time is the most suitable,” said one of the nine Great Monarchs of the Chaotic Realm, Sky Dragon True Monarch.
He belonged to the beings known as the Dragon Clan in the Chaotic Realm.
With Sky Dragon True Monarch speaking up, the other True Monarchs of Phantom and Primordial also voiced their encouragement.
“Yes, to World No.1, Martial Arts True Monarch is indeed the most suitable.”
“Ten Thousand Beasts Monarch, prioritize the bigger picture!”
With the three Monarchs set to go urging along, Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch had little else to say and simply snorted without another word.
Martial Arts True Monarch was also satisfied with this arrangement.
The birthplace of Qi Blood Martial Arts, he had long wished to visit, perhaps it would bring some additional benefits for him.
“Since that’s the case, let us depart!”
After saying this, he led Heavenly Demon and Heavenly Illusion, the two other Monarchs, into the now larger passageway.
This time, no cultivators below the Seventh Realm followed.
Those who had followed the last time were wiped out, and even those who had come to watch had suffered heavy casualties. They had thoroughly realized that Eighth Realm battles were not something they could partake in.
As Martial Arts True Monarch disappeared into the passageway,
Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch secretly smiled.
“Is Martial Arts True Monarch really the most suitable?”
Others might not understand the artefact, but as one of the oldest True Monarchs, how could he not?
When the Monarch of the artefact spoke, it was never ambiguous or half-informed.
Wang Sheng might be even stronger than imagined, and the three Monarchs might not even be safe.
The artefact might have some other plan.
Although not clear on what it was, experience told him this trip would not bring anything good.
That’s why he had Sky Dragon True Monarch suggest Martial Arts True Monarch as the most suitable.
It was also a probe; if there were no other plans, the artefact would have surely let him go, for the safest bet.
But if there were…
Clearly, he had bet correctly!
Just as he sighed with relief internally, the voice of Monarch spoke in his mind.
“Do not speak!”
The expression of Ten Thousand Beasts True Monarch remained unchanged, as if nothing had happened.
But as for Martial Arts True Monarch’s fate, he had his own calculations.
…
While Martial Arts True Monarch led the group to Wang Sheng’s world, Seven Emotions Monarch began to make his move.
