Chapter 475: Chapter 293: Extreme Realm

“`

“This…”

Under the siege and amidst the battle formations, as they watched the gods and demons filling the sky, a group of cultivators from the Tribulation Realm felt uncertain. The older generation of strong figures like Ren Baimei and Deng Yunpeng also furrowed their brows deeply. Eventually, someone cried out in shock, realizing a key point.

“Is that… SLP, Iron Heart Fortress?”

“Preheaven Qi, Yin Yang Two Extremes?”

“The Overlord shows no urgency, Broken Vajra?”

“Divine Martial Alliance, Overlord Gate, Purity Zen Sect?”

“Heavenly Demon Great Skill, Blood Sea Divine Reflecting, Nine Absolute Extreme Reverses… The Heavenly Demon Array!?”

“How is this possible!”

Feeling that extremely familiar, yet completely different Divine Martial presence, the crowd found the shock indescribable.

Those “gods and demons” of unknown origin actually exuded a battle formation aura familiar to them.

War God’s Atlas, the Divine Martial Great Array!

How could this be?

In the thousand years they spent in the Temple of War God, what exactly happened in the outside world?

Where did these three Heavenly Palace Giant Cities and the twelve god-like beings come from, and why did they exude the aura of War God’s Atlas and Divine Martial Great Array?

Could it be that, outside, in these thousand years, the Divine Martial Great Array reached a level it could be condensed onto a person’s body?

How is this possible?

Their shock was inexpressible, and their unease even greater.

Just at this moment…

“Excluding the Extermination Demon Sect, those who surrender will not be killed!”

From within White Jade Immortal City, a mighty thunderous voice resonated.

“Hmm!?”

Upon hearing these words, everyone’s expressions changed again, and old demons like Deng Yunpeng were particularly enraged.

Although they did not understand what had happened or who the opponents were, now that the situation had reached this point, how could they, as members of the Demon Sect, not react?

“Not killing those who surrender, what an arrogant claim!”

Deng Yunpeng scoffed coldly, surveyed his surroundings, exchanged glances with a few other old demons, then said to Ren Baimei and others, “Old ghost Ren, although these people are targeting our Demon Sect, they don’t seem to be your righteous path’s good descendants either. A thousand years must have brought great changes. Why don’t we join forces and break out together?”

As the saying goes, with age comes wisdom. Every cultivator from the Tribulation Realm present was an old monster with a millennium of cunning and strategical depth. Even though they still couldn’t grasp the full situation, they clearly saw the state of affairs, recognizing that the strangers were enemies with ill intentions.

Thus, old demons like Deng Yunpeng made a decisive choice to collaborate with Ren Baimei and other Tribulation Realm cultivators from the Righteous Path.

However, Ren Baimei frowned tightly, struggling to make a decision, and the other Tribulation Realm cultivators from the Righteous Path felt the same.

Just as Deng Yunpeng had mentioned, this aggressive group, though targeting the Demon Sect and not accepting surrender, extended only the courtesy of “not killing those who surrendered” to them from the Righteous Path. They were clearly not treated too favorably.

With such an attitude, they were obviously not from the Righteous Path, nor could they possibly be their own descendants and juniors.

So focused on the Demon Sect and yet not from the Righteous Path, who could they be…

Could it be that during these thousand years, a third force had emerged in the outside world, one strong enough to eliminate both the dark and the light sides, along with all major inheritances?

How is this possible!

The hesitation was clear among the Righteous Path cultivators, while the several old demons furrowed their brows. Then they heard Deng Yunpeng speak disdainfully, “At such a crucial moment, you still hesitate. Old ghost Ren, you really are regressing the more you live!”

Without waiting for Ren Baimei’s response, having already exchanged looks with the other old demons, Deng Yunpeng launched an attack towards the east, trying to break through the formation and escape.

As for the Summit Three Palaces… They were not so foolish as to bite into a hard bone that clearly looked troublesome.

Better to first break out of this dangerous place, clarify what had happened, and then consider their next move.

No sooner had the old demons made their move than thunderous roars and Sword Qi filled the sky; the four divine generals in front of White Jade Immortal City took to the air, charging down to attack the people of the Demon Sect.

The four divine generals, towering ten thousand feet tall, descended from the clouds, still of great stature. They struck down like falling stars or collapsing mountains, aimed directly at the people of the Demon Sect.

The Demon Sect’s followers had no choice but to grit their teeth and meet the attack. Deng Yunpeng soared up to confront directly the Duotian Great Spirit Official with golden eyes and vermillion hair, feet treading thunder and fire.

On the other side, seeing this, Ren Baimei and his followers also made a decisive move to break through to the west.

“Go!”

The cultivators of the Righteous Path fled, followed by the two or three neutral Tribulation Realm cultivators who were neither dark nor light, and who certainly didn’t dare linger, now breaking towards the south.

By this time, old demons like Deng Yunpeng had already confronted the four mighty divine generals of White Jade Immortal City.

“Humph, you dare to obstruct me. How capable are you?”

A cultivator of the Tribulation Realm truly is remarkable, facing down the Duotian Great Spirit Official who bore thunder and fire, his mighty pressure descending. Deng Yunpeng, not showing the slightest sign of weakness, let out a fierce roar. The flames of karma ignited, as he transformed into the Red Lotus Demon God.

“Karma Fire Red Lotus, Blood Sea Burns the Heavens!”

Deng Yunpeng clasped his hands together, the Red Lotus Karma Fire engulfing his body. He then thrust his palms forward. The Red Lotus Demon God mirrored his movement, striking directly at the Duotian Great Spirit Official.

But unexpectedly…

“Boom!!!”

The Duotian Great Spirit Official held a whip in one hand and raised the other, thunderbolts scattering from his palm, revealing a stone stele.

Carved on the stele were engravings of golden seal script, unknown and meaningless, moving and changing as if alive. They eventually condensed into a bolt of thunder, a Heavenly Punishment Thunder, filled with boundless authority.

“What is this…”

“Tianshu Thunder Rage!”

Deng Yunpeng’s pupils contracted as he immediately switched from offense to defense.

The Fifth Tablet of War God—Tianshu Thunder Rage!

When the True Martial God of War is used, it can project the shadow of the Atlas.

But now this Duotian Great Spirit Official was not using the True Martial God of War, nor projecting a mere shadow of the Atlas. Instead, it was the real thing, the very essence of War God’s Atlas!

The forty-eight tablets of War God’s Atlas, each one standing at the Fifth Rank, equivalent to a Low-Grade Immortal Artifact, were otherwise incapable of serving as the cornerstone of the Divine Martial Great Array.

Deng Yunpeng might not have known what a Low-Grade Immortal Artifact was, but he was well aware of the power of the War God’s Atlas. Even in a fight between cultivators of the Tribulation Realm, if one side wielded the Atlas and the other fought barehanded, a massive gap would open up between them, possibly even determining life or death.
