Chapter 1270 — Unrivaled Under Heaven

In the Great Void, within the vast and boundless Creator Continent, at this very moment, whether they were gods and demons of the Heavenly Court, or the god-and-demon soldiers and officers of Carefree Land and of the Creators, or even the demon gods in the Dark Capital of the Great Void, all raised their heads as if by prior agreement and looked toward one and the same place. There, an incomparably dreadful tremor had come, as though a colossal beast capable of destroying heaven and earth were recklessly venting its energy, shattering the Great Void, destroying this world the Creators had made! That power was so mighty and so terrible that their hearts filled with dread, filled with awe.

They could sense that world-destroying fluctuation rushing toward them, surging into the land of the Great Void, and its speed of propagation was astonishing to behold. Even beings at the Emperor Throne realm changed countenance drastically, for that fluctuation was simply too strong, too fast, beyond their comprehension; no divine ability could possibly attain such speed!

The only possible explanation for such speed was that the Great Void was disintegrating!

At the Heavenly Court's great camp, atop the walls of Eastfall Divine City, the Second Heavenly Master Meng Yungui raised his head and gazed at the void beyond the heavens, his face pale and bleak; like the soldiers and officers under his command, nothing remained in his heart now but shuddering alarm. "Wisdom is no match for divine ability, wisdom is no match for divine ability.

. .

" he murmured.

Suddenly the soldiers of the Westfall Sect broke into an uproar and commotion, and Meng Yungui hurried to steady the morale of the troops; just then, he saw the sky split open, and giant after giant came charging into the land of the Great Void. "Corpse Walkers!

They're the Corpse Walkers from the Collapsing Void!

" someone cried in shock. Those Corpse Walkers were the Creators who had died in battle during the last invasion of the Great Emperor; though they were dead, the lingering obsessions left in their corpses made them walk endlessly through the Collapsing Void, seeking their homeland.

But Corpse Walkers could not enter this land of the Great Void; they could only cycle round and round, again and again, walking back and forth endlessly through the Collapsing Void.

And now, the Corpse Walkers had actually charged into the land of the Great Void! Those sky-piercing giants descended from the heavens trailing fire; one after another they crashed to the ground, smashing mountains flat, slamming hard into the earth, and for a long while they did not stir.

These Corpse Walkers were scattered all across the Great Void, some falling into the Heavenly Court's territory, some into the territory of Carefree Land. After a moment, Meng Yungui summoned a squad of scouts and ordered, "Go at once to the nearest Corpse Walker landing site and investigate, then report back to me!

" The squad of god-and-demon scouts accepted the order and immediately flew off; before they even reached the fallen Corpse Walker, they suddenly saw that Corpse Walker sprawled on the ground in a bizarre posture, crouching among the mountains, its eyes a ghastly white, when it abruptly opened its mouth wide and let out a shrill, mournful cry!

The squad of god-and-demon scouts were battered into a daze by that cry, and then they saw countless masterless spiritual consciousnesses come surging wildly like a tide from the Corpse Walker's mouth! "It's the spiritual consciousnesses and resentments of the Collapsing Void hiding inside these Corpse Walkers!

" The scouts panicked and turned to flee, but many could not escape in time; the tide of spiritual consciousnesses caught up with them, and in an instant countless inner demons were born and tore them to shreds!

And that Corpse Walker, crouched on all fours, its joints twisted, sped off in pursuit of the other scouts, monstrous inner demons swarming before and behind it. And throughout the land of the Great Void, this scene played out everywhere.

Corpse Walkers crawling on all fours, trailing numberless inner demons, poured toward the mighty passes built by the Creators, by Carefree Land, and by the Heavenly Court. And in the sky, one Creator corpse after another leaped down, plunging from beyond the heavens into the land of the Great Void. Trailing long flames, they smashed into mountains and rivers, and then one and all opened their great mouths and let out shrill, mournful cries.

For a time, the land of the Great Void was like a realm of demons. The shock from the battle between the Great Emperor and Hao Heavenly Venerable had not yet reached the land of the Great Void, but the effects they had wrought upon the Great Void had already arrived here first.

"Shen Fengqing—" Kaihuang Shen Ye's voice reached into the Dark Capital of the Great Void.

The big-headed monstrous infant Shen Fengqing raised his head, looking excitedly at the chaos in the land of the Great Void. His childish voice rang out, echoing through the land of the Great Void.

"Where my body is, there is the Dark Capital! " "Resentments of the Creators from the most ancient times, you are my most delicious food!

" At the same time, Void Heavenly Venerable lifted her left hand and unfurled the dark cloak on her body; the long horns on her head grew larger and longer, transforming into two winding nine-bend rivers flowing with magma, suppressing the demonic nature in every corner of the Great Void!

Shen Fengqing saw this from afar, stuck his thumb in his mouth and sucked on it: "Why didn't Mother give me two horns?

So unimpressive.

.

.

That woman is good-looking! Kill her and pluck off her horns and stick them in my forehead, and I'd look good too!

" Kaihuang summoned Divine King Langwan, along with the heads of the various Creator races and the four Heavenly Masters and four Heavenly Kings, and said, "The plan for now is to first contract our forces and be ready at any moment to retreat to the Void of the Other Shore.

" Divine King Langwan said, "Does Kaihuang mean that the Great Void may very well collapse?

" Kaihuang said calmly, "I know who is fighting beyond the heavens: Hao Heavenly Venerable, the Great Emperor, and Yu Heavenly Venerable of the Divine Artifact.

The Great Emperor is about to be defeated.

" Divine King Langwan's expression shifted slightly; she could sense that three powerful beings were fighting beyond the heavens, and that one of them was the Great Emperor, of that there was no doubt.

She could also sense that the Great Emperor was about to be defeated! The Great Emperor was an existence she looked up to, one who had swept across the ancient times without ever suffering a defeat; even the battle between the ancient god Heavenly Emperor and the Great Emperor had involved means that were less than honorable.

She had never imagined that Hao Heavenly Venerable would have the strength to defeat the Great Emperor! Kaihuang saw the trace of timidity in her heart, the unsteadiness of her dao heart, and said, "Hao Heavenly Venerable is my rival. I saw this as early as the first years of Longhan.

If it were Yu Heavenly Venerable who ruled the world, I would bow my head and call myself his subject; but if it is Hao Heavenly Venerable, then I can contend with him for the orthodox line of heaven and earth. There is no need for the Divine King to fear him; his only advantage is that he was born more than nine hundred thousand years before me.

" Divine King Langwan was somewhat reassured.

Kaihuang proposed, "In the battle between Hao Heavenly Venerable and the Great Emperor, that reincarnated body of the Great Emperor among the Ten Heavenly Venerables will surely be unable to sit still either. Right now Hao Heavenly Venerable has the upper hand over the Great Emperor, but if that Heavenly Venerable makes his move, the outcome will be fifty-fifty.
