Chapter 601: Chapter 24: Post-incident Response and Meeting
True Monarch Qi clearly understood that Wang Sheng was a tremendous threat.
The problem from those years ago hadn’t been resolved, and there was no way to preemptively strike him down; now, they could only watch the threat grow, waiting for the cross-realm channel to truly open before his real body could move out. It was only because they used certain methods to open it prematurely that there were so many restrictions.
However, once it officially opened, True Monarch Qi was also unclear to what extent Wang Sheng could grow.
Thus, he could only set his sights on other worlds.
“As long as the growth is fast enough…”
Of course, those were his words, but the shadow of a plan that had been prepared for thousands of years and failed to materialize still hung heavily over the Chaotic Realm.
And harboring a shadow even deeper than that of the Chaotic Realm was the world where the Seven Emotions Monarch resided, the Desire Realm.
Like the Chaotic Realm, the Desire Realm was a complete world, round as the heavens and square as the earth, much like a Secret Realm.
Even though the Seven Emotions Monarch, who transmitted messages, died, they still captured certain pieces of information.
“You must have sensed it, the battle of the Ninth Realm!” The most openly powerful being in Desire Realm, the Desire True Monarch, came out to preside over the meeting.
“We sensed it, it’s near that planet…”
“Not just that, one of the Ninth Realm auras was very familiar.” The Desire Realm had been connected to the world where the battle took place, so they could sense a certain aura.
That aura had also erupted a long time ago when the Chaotic Realm’s True Monarch Qi broke through, becoming the first and now the only Ninth Realm being in their region.
A fact remembered by all worlds with strength in the area.
And now, someone appeared capable of contesting True Monarch Qi.
“Has a second Ninth Realm emerged in this region, and it’s the world we had our eyes on…”
These words left the remaining four True Monarchs in silence.
Originally, one of their six True Monarchs had died, and now that a powerful Ninth Realm being had appeared in the world that held grudges against them, one could say that misfortunes never come singly.
“What should we do next? Although that world has been manipulated by the Chaotic Realm and is somewhat confused, they will come to realize the truth eventually. Our world has actively connected with theirs, aside from the Chaotic Realm’s channel, the inter-realm channel connected to us will certainly be the first to be discovered, when that time comes…”
Previously, they had actively connected to the Planet Will, but now it seemed like a death warrant.
“What if the Chaotic Realm’s True Monarch wins?” As soon as the True Monarch finished speaking, he realized the stupidity of his own question. They had originally thought that Chaotic Realm’s True Monarch Qi couldn’t make a move in other worlds, which is why they dared to invade the Chaotic Realm’s target world, but now the speculation had been shattered. Regardless of who won, they were in danger.
Because it was a foolish statement, no one answered.
After a long while, the Desire True Monarch spoke, “The only solution is to have our own Ninth Realm as quickly as possible… This is the sole solution. Since that is the case, let us begin to invade worlds, this is our only chance.”
“But the only world coordinates we possess, aside from that world, are for a world with an Eighth Realm, and although there are only two, it’s still very troublesome.”
Their strongest was also of the Eighth Realm, so invading a world with an Eighth Realm was very risky, and generally, they would not invade such worlds.
“If we don’t take a risk, we will be in greater danger later on. We must act now!”
In the end, all five True Monarchs of the Desire Realm agreed on this decision.
Despite the high risks and the lack of colossal benefits like the Planet Will, they still chose to gamble.
Not just the Desire Realm, but all worlds or galaxies in the region, as long as they were slightly more profound, had sensed the situation and began to activate high-risk plans they had previously hesitated on.
“Coming into the Big World, one step behind is the abyss… but to advance, how difficult it is, to break through a First Realm, it needs countless skeletons to fill!”
An elder who had experienced the passage of time sighed, as if foreseeing a future of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
But under the Starry Sky Rules, no creature could change this.
The only thing to do was to rapidly increase their own strength, to secure a foothold for survival.
And Wang Sheng, one of the main characters who caused all this change, had already returned to the interior of the planet.
Drifting in the galaxy for a month, he finally recovered a bit.
Once back on the planet, he found Huangtian.
At this moment, Huangtian was dealing with a series of aftermaths, with the Chaotic Realm creatures left behind, the traitors, all needing to be dealt with.
Zhu Xiao was also there, holding the trump card left by Wang Sheng, able to suppress all.
When Wang Sheng returned, the situation had mostly been dealt with.
Strength, in the end, could determine everything.
Seeing Wang Sheng, Huangtian breathed a huge sigh of relief.
The battle of the Ninth Realm had a massive impact. Even though Wang Sheng deliberately increased the distance, Huangtian could still perceive it,
Even across the distant galaxy, he vaguely felt the might of that battle.
Thinking of how the Eighth Realm powerful beings had been effortlessly dealt with before, he knew that the battle in the starry sky must have been of the Ninth Realm!
Although he had been dealing with things, his heart had also been hanging.
Now, that heart could finally be put at ease.
“Master, welcome back!”
Now, he could finally say these words genuinely.
“The threat has been temporarily lifted, the Chaotic Realm won’t invade again for a long time!” Wang Sheng told Huangtian the news he most wanted to hear, and then asked, “How have you been handling things on your end?”
Huangtian knew what Wang Sheng wanted to ask and replied, “Master, all of the Chaotic Realm cultivators beyond the Fifth Realm have been captured; those below the Fifth Realm are still being caught slowly, but since the Chaotic Realm’s people were already retreating, there won’t be many of them, and all those traitors have also been captured. May I ask, how does Master wish to deal with them?”
“Where are the cultivators from the Chaotic Realm?” The Planet Will hadn’t grown for long, and although it had a lot of information, it wasn’t necessarily comprehensive. As a powerful world, the Chaotic Realm likely knew quite a bit.
