Millions of miles away from the battlefield, the Grand General lay in a mountain of crumbles; he had crashed into at least a thousand mountains.
Laying in the debris of the destroyed mountain, the Grand General had a furious expression as his eyes slowly turned dark; the four shining orbs around him lit brightly and disappeared into his body as the next moment, he thundered, causing his body to explode with an enormous amount of raging energy. He stood with clenched fists and a deathly stare; he then squatted as the next second, Boom!
The Grand General jumped from his location, his launching recoil instantly obliterating the mountain into dust as he headed for the battlefield.
The battle scene got even more chaotic as blood and body parts scattered all over the scene. The hundreds of thousands of nearby mountains and hills were devastated, and hundreds of millions of shattered space barriers could be seen everywhere.
Even though it was approaching night, the eliminating Laws and Daos of billions of cultivators made the scene resemble daytime, as one could see clearly enough to find a pin.
Up in the air, the Bored Immortal and the five Jian Saint Ancestors mercilessly massacred the Arkmenians as they were completely drenched in blood and feathers. They have reduced the twelve million Arkmenians to a measly one and a half million, done within half of their given time. The Overlord had the Shattering Dao, making him capable of shattering anything he wanted, including space.
Maybe that's why Overlords are never underestimated, not even by the Immortal Gate.
The Bored Immortal stretched his right hand at a cluster of Arkmenians as he uttered, "Shatter!" The instant he spoke, the clustering group of over eight hundred thousand Saint King Arkmenians instantly splattered into countless body parts as they drifted off in different directions.
The five Jian Saint Ancestors weren't any less grandiose; they utilized their Sword Dao and created millions of raining gigantic swords. The swords then descended on the remaining Arkmenians, completely wiping them out.
Jun Moxie, Jian Jui, the region leaders, and their followers frantically assaulted the Gong family warriors and gigantic beasts as they easily overwhelmed them with numbers. Jun Mulan was quite fierce; she alone stood against thousands of Star Celestials, yet she wasn't being suppressed the least; on the contrary, she was even more brutal as she mercilessly slaughtered them by the thousands.
Raleigh remained in the air over the intense battlefield as he awaited the Grand General; he still had his hands behind him and closed eyes. He exhaled impatiently as he noticed the incoming General flying toward him faster than the speed of light. The Grand General ferociously launched at Raleigh as his body radiated with four different Daos, significantly boosting his speed and strength.
Finally reaching Raleigh, the Grand General tightly clenched both fists as he double-punched Raleigh.
Crack! Shatter!
The space cracked and shattered as the General's fists landed on Raleigh's body. One could tell the punch was very impactful as the space behind Raleigh shattered for over ten miles; the Qi in the surroundings was heavily distorted, drawing the attention of almost every cultivator in the scene.
The Bored Immortal, Jian Ancestors, and billions of the allying cultivators noticed the overbearing pressure from above them as they turned their attention to Raleigh, with some having curious faces.
This mysteriously tall red-haired man has always been beside the One Above; he never spoke, opened his eyes, nor showed any emotions. But from his extremely subservient attitude towards the One Above, it's clear that he must be at least the right-hand man to the One Above. And as they had never seen him battle, most of the cultivators were left wondering how strong this red-haired man was.
Although they expected him to be strong, they still had curious doubts about his strength.
The Grand General's punch landed on Raleigh; from such a mighty force, it was expected for Raleigh to be either instantly killed or at least tossed away for millions of miles into the distance. But contrary to popular belief, Raleigh remained unaffected by the punch as he hovered at his spot, not even pushed back by an inch.
Even more, he maintained his unfazed and unbothered expression with his hands still behind him.
Looking at Raleigh, the Grand General became even more enraged as he bellowed in anger; his body then enlarged to thrice his previous size as he towered over Raleigh like a giant. Raising both his bulged arms, the Grand General heavily hammered at Raleigh, aiming to knock Raleigh down the earth, but again, Raleigh remained unaffected as he didn't even show any signs of being tormented or perturbed.
Still, the Grand General became more enraged as he relentlessly launched countless attacks at Raleigh.
It's been over a minute since the Grand General began ferociously attacking Raleigh; the surrounding space was completely shattered, the Qi heavily distorted as it affected the low-level cultivators. Even high-level warriors weren't safe from the overwhelming pressure released by the Saint Ancestor Grand General.
But while the Grand General ravenously pounced at Raleigh, Raleigh raised his left hand as he blocked the General's attack with his index finger; he spoke, ignoring the General's blind rage.
"Did I see that right!? How come not even a single one of them died in that battle!? Not even the Star Sovereigns were injured, let alone killed. How is that possible?!"
But while the Arkmenian exclaimed in shock and disbelief, Dao Child Hu Longtian had a different thought process. Hu Longtian stared at the billions of cultivators as they religiously and willingly adulated Patrick. He couldn't help but frown seeing such a crowd bowing before one man, not even his master, the Ancient Elder, wielded such crowd control.
This is what he wanted; this adoration from billions of people, all bowing towards him, is what he wanted. So how come someone else is getting what was supposed to be his?
These thoughts roamed Hu Longtian's head as he stared at Patrick with killing intent. But then, Hu Longtian saw Patrick looking up at him; he instantly canceled his killing intent. For some unknown reason, he felt terrified when he noticed Patrick's gaze; it felt like a predator looking at its prey. Without knowing, beads of sweat rolled down Hu Longtian's face as a tinge of terror crossed his soul.
He hurriedly asked the Arkmenian.
"Tell me, can anyone see or detect us?"
"No, Dao Child. We are using the Ancient Elder's presence erasure artifact, which should erase our presence from all detections, even from that of Saint Ancestors."
The Arkmenian answered as he smelled Hu Longtian's fear and terror. As Arkmenians, smelling emotions are one of their specialties.
Patrick looked up at the Dao Child and the Arkmenian as he spoke to Grace.
"So that's one of the Dao Children claimed to be born Immortals. They are more pathetic than I imagined; how tragic."
"That's because, as someone always looking down, everything is destined to look pathetic in your eyes."
Patrick chatted with Grace when millions of slits and openings suddenly appeared in the atmosphere. The scene looked terrifying and horrendous, as one could see millions of shattered space walls all around Patrick's group; as if that wasn't enough, an overbearing pressure descended on the scene, instantly crushing millions of mountains and terrains to crumbles.
The cultivators from Patrick's group were affected by the overwhelming pressure as it sent all of them crashing down, causing a loud, exaggerated boom.
From the millions of space openings, billions of cultivators and beasts slowly emerged as they clustered in the sky like stars. The beasts were ten times larger than the ones with the Grand General as they filled the sky like massive whales.
The emerged cultivators continuously poured from the space openings as their combined realm pressures created a massive wave of suppression on the cultivators below.
After what felt like twenty minutes, the continuous spamming of cultivators finally ceased. With all the ancient family cultivators combined, over five trillion cultivators occupied the sky and ground.
Including the hundreds of millions of massive beasts and hundreds of thousands of gigantic floating formations, the sky was completely covered as one wouldn't even see a fraction of the sky for billions of miles stretch.
One must account that the leaders or ancient family powerhouses haven't even made their appearances yet; these massive number of cultivators are merely their soldiers sent to the front lines, led by their Grand Generals.
Patrick's billions of cultivators were nothing compared to the current trillions of cultivators. Although they trusted the One Above, fear and panic still crossed their faces as they stared at the trillions of enemies in the sky and on the ground. Even though they can't die, it will take them forever to wipe out these massive amounts of enemies.
Not having any solutions, the regional leaders, Jian Ancestors, Jun Moxie, and even the Bored Immortal all gaze up at Patrick to see his expression.
Patrick impassively stared at the trillions of cultivators blocking the sky as he remained unfazed. He then steadily began stretching his right arm in a testing manner as he smirked; he then spoke to his wives.
"All right, ladies, our warm-up is finally here."
The three Omni-Queens grinned.
