The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2577: Chapter 2577: Creation Will

The main cities of Golden Toad Commerce and Tianbei Sect are not as large as Hongmeng City.

Actually, in terms of prosperity, Hongmeng City outshines them. The Hongmeng Pill Tower and Hongmeng Cultivation Tower in Hongmeng City are unique, unmatched by any other superpower. Additionally, Hongmeng City is backed by the Red Victory Secret Land, one of the three major risk zones in Kunling Heaven and one of the largest treasure troves. Numerous adventurers enter and exit the Red Victory Secret Land every day.

Jing Yan personally welcomed Chairman Meng Kun and Sect Master Lan Zan to the Hongmeng City Lord Mansion. Of course, the many Immortal Venerables from both superpowers were also treated with grandeur.

The key members of Hongmeng City and the key members of the two superpowers gathered in the Council Hall of the City Lord Mansion.

"City Lord Jing Yan, the Yama Palace Alliance Army is about to reach the edge of the Thunder Domain. Do you have any plan for action against them?" After everyone was seated, Grandmaster Lan Zan directly asked.

Chairman Meng Kun also looked at Jing Yan.

"The boundary of the Thunder Domain is too long, with our strength, it is impossible to guard the entire boundary of the Thunder Domain." Jing Yan said.

"Yes, indeed, that is impossible. At most, we can only guard a few points on the boundary, but people from Yama Palace can bypass our guard points." Lan Zan nodded.

"City Lord Jing Yan, the three black-clothed Killing Stars of Yama Palace have already died by your hand, which is good news for us. However, Yama Palace has a total of five superpowers and more than a dozen top-tier forces. It’s impossible for us to completely block them outside the Thunder Domain. In other words, even if we do everything we can, the Yama Palace Alliance Army will inevitably invade the Thunder Domain." Chairman Meng Kun shook his head and said.

"Indeed!" Jing Yan agreed.

"Therefore, after much consideration, I’ve decided not to guard the boundary. We might as well let them enter the Thunder Domain, let them come in." Jing Yan’s eyes brightened as he spoke.

"This battle will be a grand battle. My plan is to set the battlefield in Hongmeng City. We will focus our forces in Hongmeng City and wait for the Yama Palace Alliance Army to arrive." Jing Yan continued, "Regarding the cities along the route, I’ll have Hongmeng City’s system of cultivators evacuated in advance. The Yama Palace Alliance Army intends to defeat us to control the Thunder Domain, so they will not randomly destroy cities. They will want to manage these cities once they defeat us, and certainly won’t want to rebuild the city on a wasteland."

"Setting the main battlefield in Hongmeng City? Isn’t the risk too high?"

Meng Kun and Lan Zan were a little surprised upon hearing Jing Yan’s words.

Hongmeng City is Jing Yan’s stronghold. If Hongmeng City is breached, it would mean the direct failure of this war.

"This is unavoidable. Their ultimate target is Hongmeng City. If we block them in other cities, firstly those cities’ defenses are far inferior to Hongmeng City, and secondly, they are not puppets and may not act according to our wishes." Jing Yan explained.

Meng Kun and Lan Zan exchanged a glance and nodded lightly.

"Let’s deploy it this way then!" Grandmaster Lan Zan said.

"Hongmeng City is backed by the Red Victory Secret Land, so facing the Red Victory Secret Land direction, defense can be weaker. For the other three directions... Since there are exactly three forces, each force can mainly be responsible for one direction’s offense and defense. If any direction suffers a strong attack, the other two forces can immediately support." Meng Kun suggested.

"This is good. We three can mainly mobilize our forces’ cultivators, which will be more seamless and efficient." Jing Yan agreed gladly.

Xu Yiming, with ten High-level Thunder Warriors, had been disrupting the Yama Palace Alliance Army’s vanguard troops at the edge of the Thunder Domain for some time, but now Jing Yan summoned him back to Hongmeng City. It was necessary because the Yama Palace Alliance Army’s main force was about to reach the boundary position. If Xu Yiming stayed there, he might be surrounded.

...

Thunder Domain boundary.

One by one, the Heavenly Domain Flying Boats finally arrived. The Yama Palace Alliance Army came with great momentum.

Numerous superpower’s elite experts gathered together. The cultivators previously gathered along the boundary line now all moved to a far-off place, keeping their distance from the Yama Palace army.

"Alliance Hierarch!"

The commander of the vanguard army approached Yu Hentian.

"How is the situation?" Yu Hentian asked.

"We dispatched some troops into the Thunder Domain, attacking cities along the route, and did not encounter too much resistance. Hongmeng City seems to have abandoned the defense of its peripheral cities. We’ve also heard some news: Hongmeng City has summoned many personnel from its various cities back to the main city." The commander reported to Yu Hentian.

"Mm!" Yu Hentian squinted his eyes, as he had also received similar information in advance.

"Alliance Hierarch, our guess should be correct. That little boy Jing Yan wants to use Hongmeng City as the main battlefield for this war." Sima Tianyang spoke from not far behind Yu Hentian.

"This battle is inevitable! Since that little thief Jing Yan wishes to have a life-and-death battle at Hongmeng City, let’s oblige him. Once Hongmeng City is breached and the little thief is killed, the Thunder Domain will be under our control. If Hongmeng City falls, other cities are just minor issues." Jiang Yue, President of Tianji Trading House, had an undercurrent of excitement.

Jing Yan is indeed powerful, and Hongmeng City is indeed strong. However, their alliance army is stronger. There’s no avoiding losses in this battle, but these losses will ultimately be repaired over time. But if Hongmeng City is allowed to expand unchecked, it won’t be long before Kunling Heaven will not have a space for forces opposing Hongmeng City.

"Let’s take action then! Enter the Thunder Domain, advance swiftly towards Hongmeng City!" Yu Hentian saw that everyone shared a similar sentiment and loudly ordered.

The Yama Palace Alliance Army grandly entered the Thunder Domain range, heading straight for Hongmeng City.

...

Chaotic Primordial Space!

As previously mentioned, the esteemed figures of Chaotic Primordial Space are indeed very focused on Hongmeng City.

Among these figures, some want to kill Jing Yan, while others want to protect him. However, those who wish to kill him are mostly from forces in the Heavenly Domain that oppose Hongmeng City, and their desire for Jing Yan’s death is strong. Meanwhile, those who want to protect Jing Yan mostly have a noncommittal attitude, indicating they might not truly intervene for Jing Yan and Hongmeng City.

Originally, there was an Immortal Emperor who intended to personally deal with Hongmeng City and Jing Yan.

However, this intention was not transformed into action.

The will of Creation prevented the Immortal Emperor from personally striking against Jing Yan.

Immortal Emperors grasp the supreme Law, and have ascended the Chaotic Primordial Golden List. But what is the Chaotic Primordial Golden List?

Perhaps those cultivators below the Immortal Emperor are unclear about what it is. However, Immortal Emperors who have ascended the Chaotic Primordial Golden List understand it. The Chaotic Primordial Golden List, to a certain extent, embodies Creation. Even Immortal Emperors dare not defy the will of Creation.
