Chapter 2099: Chapter 2099: Partitioning the All-Heavens Alliance
Before the final showdown between Chu Yuan and the Sovereign of Upper Heaven, another Lord of Upper Heaven unexpectedly appeared in the direction of the Celestial Alliance.
This Lord of Upper Heaven may not be as formidable as Chu Yuan and the Sovereign of Upper Heaven, but the power gathered by hundreds of Upper Heaven entities should not be underestimated; sometimes, it can even alter the course of the battle.
"Well, having gathered a Lord of Upper Heaven, we now possess a certain power to protect ourselves and are no longer so weak and vulnerable!"
This Lord of Upper Heaven is infused with the will of many Upper Heaven beings, protecting the Celestial Alliance.
"Emperor, the Celestial Alliance has actually gathered a Lord of Upper Heaven!"
Within the empire, there is divine discourse.
"Ignore them."
Chu Yuan said indifferently.
Meanwhile, on the divine side.
"The Lord of Upper Heaven is learning from us, trying to consolidate their power; such a weak entity dares to call itself the Lord of Upper Heaven? It’s sheer folly! The Celestial Alliance is still entertaining dreams of profiting as a third party—it’s simply courting death!"
The demon roared furiously.
"Our grand battle with Martial Emperor is about to unfold. Although we disregard the Celestial Alliance, it’s still a hidden peril. Better to directly attack the Celestial Alliance, shatter their world, and sacrifice their Upper Heaven entities. Our Sovereign of Upper Heaven has just gathered, and it needs the blood sacrifice of Upper Heavens!"
Hell’s Upper Heaven spoke cruelly.
"With the blood of Upper Heaven, forge the might of the Sovereign of Upper Heaven. The new era doesn’t need them!"
The Law declared.
"If we take action against the Celestial Alliance, the Martial Emperor would undoubtedly intervene. But having the Celestial Alliance here is indeed an eyesore." The Upper Heaven of Light stated.
"Martial God is also poised for us to break the Celestial Alliance and sacrifice the Upper Heavens. With the blood sacrifice, Martial God is pleased. He will save those Upper Heavens willing to ally with him."
The god saw through everything.
Whether it’s salvation or blood sacrifice, it’s all about dividing the Celestial Alliance’s power.
"Attack!"
Just as the Celestial Alliance imagined reaping benefits as a third party, a terrifying force struck the Celestial Alliance first.
The Sovereign of Upper Heaven descended.
With the joint force of ten top-tier Upper Heaven entities, plus some smaller Upper Heavens within their realm, they formed an overwhelming power, directly attacking the Celestial Alliance.
The sky changed color.
BOOM! Infinite explosions resounded as the Sovereign of Upper Heaven raised its arms and then brought them down fiercely, causing the world binding the Celestial Alliance to shatter into madness, encountering devastating destruction.
The seemingly formidable Celestial Alliance appeared so fragile before the Sovereign of Upper Heaven.
"The gods are attacking us!"
"Their Sovereign of Upper Heaven wants to break our Lord of Upper Heaven!"
"Fight back, fight back! The world must not be broken by them, or it will all be over!"
...
Angry and frightened voices erupted from within the Celestial Alliance.
They forcibly operated the Lord of Upper Heaven, seemingly tall and mighty, yet like a copycat drawing, it collided with the blow from the Sovereign of Upper Heaven, appearing fragile and frail.
They thought that gathering the Lord of Upper Heaven would at least give them the qualifications to confront either side, even if they weren’t directly involved.
As the Sovereign of Upper Heaven’s all-encompassing hands descended again, indifferent and infinite, this terrifying strike further tore apart the Celestial Alliance. Countless beings within saw the coming apocalypse and turned to dust.
The Lord of Upper Heaven, infused with their vital essence, spirit, and earth origin, suffered a grave blow, resulting in a fierce backlash.
"Annihilate the Celestial Alliance!"
Led by the god, the top ten Upper Heaven entities pushed their power to its peak, a subsequent strike shattering the Celestial Alliance, with a Lord of Upper Heaven caught by the Sovereign of Upper Heaven.
Immediately, the captured Upper Heaven was blood sacrificed.
How formidable are the ten Upper Heaven beings, and when united, what hope does the Celestial Alliance have to withstand them?
The Sovereign of Upper Heaven commenced its cruel blood sacrifice.
"Emperor, the Celestial Alliance has been shattered, and they are sacrificing Upper Heavens!"
A witness to the breaking of the Celestial Alliance reported the cruel scene unfolding, aware that each Upper Heaven sacrificed strengthens the Sovereign of Upper Heaven.
Those who had foresight to abandon ambition and join the empire in time were deeply relieved.
Stubborn and disobedient, their fate is sealed.
"I, in the Fourth Era, Eternal Unification!"
As the Sovereign of Upper Heaven engaged in rampant blood sacrifice, Chu Yuan voiced his decree.
At this moment, the Celestial Alliance symbolized the dark apocalypse, while here it represented the place of bright hope.
"Martial God Emperor, save us! We are willing to join the empire, to build your Fourth Era!"
"It was our mistake, a grave mistake. Forming the Celestial Alliance was suicidal. Only Eternal Unification is the rightful path!"
"Please save us!"
The Upper Heaven entities of the Celestial Alliance looked to the empire, a symbol of eternity, pleading for salvation.
The Lord of Upper Heaven was shattered, their power could not unite, even in large numbers, they were not adversaries to the terrifying existence of the Sovereign of Upper Heaven.
Heavens have different strengths and weaknesses.
Before the Sovereign of Upper Heaven, they were too weak, dominated easily between life and death.
They realized fully that the will of their Celestial Alliance was too scattered, lacking purity, with no grand ideology.
Even if all ten Upper Heaven entities abandoned their self-interest and collectively formed a Sovereign of Upper Heaven, their flawed Lord of Upper Heaven was naturally slaughtered.
Now, only Martial God Emperor can save them.
Hearing their cries for help and willingness to fully integrate into the empire, Chu Yuan immediately acted, his Eternal Era power sweeping over, bringing one Upper Heaven after another into the empire.
Previously, Chu Yuan executed blood sacrifices of Upper Heavens to open the Third Era. Now, he saves them, like a cycle.
"You save them, while I shall slaughter them!"
As Chu Yuan saved these Upper Heaven beings, the Sovereign of Upper Heaven, representing the ten Upper Heaven entities, engaged in rampant slaughter.
The pace of both sides was unexpectedly evenly matched.
Though different methods were employed, the aim was the same: to strengthen themselves as much as possible while weakening the other’s power.
The Celestial Alliance vanished, no longer existing.
Almost half of the Upper Heaven entities joined Chu Yuan, while the other half were blood sacrificed by the Sovereign of Upper Heaven.
The Celestial Alliance became a laughingstock.
They gathered in hopes of accomplishing a lot, but ultimately served only as resources for both powerful factions.
Actually, they had a choice.
After the initial war between Chu Yuan and the divine entities, there was a very brief window of opportunity.
If at that time, they had joined the empire, they would have avoided the slaughter.
But they didn’t make that choice, choosing instead to form a Lord of Upper Heaven.
Even Chu Yuan couldn’t save them all.
After sacrificing many Upper Heavens, the Sovereign of Upper Heaven grew mightier, embodying the ideology of the ten Upper Heaven beings, opening the Fourth Era.
On Chu Yuan’s side, with many Upper Heavens gained, the brilliance of the Eternal Era grew ever more radiant.
The rescued Upper Heaven entities understood that the Martial God Emperor had given them life. To avoid death, they must strengthen the empire and defeat the Sovereign of Upper Heaven!
"For the Fourth Era, the Eternal Era!"
Loud voices erupted within the empire.
The empire’s will became a roaring tempest.
Chu Yuan faced the Sovereign of Upper Heaven representing the ten Upper Heaven entities, knowing the final battle had come, that delay was unnecessary, and the decisive battle could begin.
He stepped out of the empire, rays of Eternal Era’s glory.
"The final battle, the battle of eras, come forth!"
