The Extreme Yin Celestial Realm's representatives entered the teleportation formation!
The three Divas, each trailing serpent tails of dark green, icy blue, and pale pink, led the way.
Behind them, the seven stunning daughters of Wan Ji, similar in features but strikingly different in style, followed suit.
Finally, Yun Xiao and Feng Yao quietly brought up the rear. A devil and slave, their presence clashing starkly with the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm.
The three Divas turned around in the center of the formation. The Sea Lineage Diva took the middle spot, flanked by the Ice Lineage Diva on the left, and the Snow Lineage Diva on the right.
Their appearances and auras differed, yet they shared the same attribute—a lofty, transcendent beauty that demanded respect. Though women, they symbolized fierce resolve.
"For the Harmony Divine Palace! Victory is ours!"
A deafening cheer echoed from outside.
Hearing this, the conviction in their eyes seemed to amplify threefold.
The three Divas exchanged glances. Under their command, the colorful celestial formation at their feet suddenly sparkled to life. This sole gateway of the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm began absorbing celestial energy and activated.
BOOM! The area was bathed in a dazzling light that obscured everything!
The celestial formation’s shifting power, vast as the sea, acted upon them. For a moment, Yun Xiao felt as though he was caught in a whirlpool, his body jostled and pulled towards the deep sea.
"Ah." Feng Yao, slightly anxious, instinctively grasped Yun Xiao's arm, fearing the formation might malfunction and send them to different places.
"Such a scaredy-cat." Yun Xiao smiled helplessly and drew her into his embrace.
Though this Yin Devil was slender and tall, holding her was somewhat strenuous due to her height and build. He had to move his hands lower to encircle her slim waist to fully embrace her.
However, in doing so, Yun Xiao's face was buried deep between her chest, held in place by her nervous grip, leaving the young man in his arms gasping for breath.
"Ugh..."
And so it was, amidst the starry ocean of this celestial formation, they drifted, guided by the shifting forces.
The journey was long, and the process of shifting took its time.
Immersed in bliss, Yun Xiao had forgotten the passage of time. At last, unaware of the moment, he felt a sudden lightness, as though surfacing from the depths. Though still unable to breathe, he distinctly felt the environment had changed around him.
In the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm, the celestial energy was chilling to the bone.
Here, however, this new place seemed to brim with various types of celestial energy. Impure perhaps, but the volume and richness were sufficient, at least making Yun Xiao feel more at ease.
This all indicated one thing. They had arrived at their destination!
"Sister, look over there!"
The voices of Wan Ji's daughters reached his ears.
It was probably their first time leaving the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm. So, their curiosity about this new world was palpable.
"Are we there?" Feng Yao, still dizzy from the motion, finally came to her senses, glanced down, and in a scare, thought she had smothered Yun Xiao to death. ꭆ
"Are you alright?" she asked.
Yun Xiao shot her a look and said, "Next time, wear softer clothes, they're scraping my face."
"Keep dreaming. Next time I'll wear armor with spikes. See if you dare then," she huffed.
"Are Boundless Immortals really that powerful?"
The daughters were astounded by such an unimaginable feat.
"Celestial power is boundless, naturally defying the heavens."
Wan Ji glanced at the Snow Lineage Diva then continued to her daughters, "These compressed Celestial Sourcecores are called Taiyi Sourcecores. There are 10,000 Taiyi Sourcecores in the Heavenly Deity Stellar River, all gathered here."
"Taiyi Sourcecores?" Yun Xiao was struck by the revelation. Each of these stars, which looked no bigger than a large meteor, possessed ten times the celestial energy of the Celestial Court.
Such power truly affirmed the might of a Boundless Immortal!
"Each Taiyi Sourcecore corresponds to one of the myriad sects of the Samsara Galaxy. Ours is called the Extreme Yin Star. You'll ascend it and use it as a base to engage with the myriad other sects in a simulated celestial war..." Wan Ji disclosed.
"Oh?" Yun Xiao was just beginning to grasp the rules of the Grand Assembly of Myriad Sects.
Well now, that’s interesting! Put simply, the Grand Assembly Arena was a miniature version of the Samsara Galaxy!
The mightiest of the myriad sects, each holding a Taiyi Sourcecore, stationed their top disciples there for what? A game of attack and defense?
This was, in essence, a simulated celestial war across the stars!
"No wonder the number of participants is crucial. We have only nine; if others bring dozens, we’ll surely be at a disadvantage in a starry siege," Yun Xiao mused quietly.
So, Yun Xiao, Feng Yao, and Wan Ji's seven daughters would guard their Extreme Yin Star, making up an eight-women-and-one-man team.
It was miniature star wars!
After hearing this, Wan Ji's daughters parted slightly, and their faces paled a touch.
All of them were well aware that the Harmony Divine Palace was a prize many longed to conquer. Who could predict how many celestial prodigies would come attacking their sect?
Up here, on the Heavenly Deity Stellar Formation, it was already apparent.
Many sects were arriving, typically greeted by their own cliques, perhaps allies of different sects coming together, but the group from the Extreme Yin Celestial Realm drew no one close; instead, they attracted many a curious glance.
"Let's head straight for the Extreme Yin Star." The Ice Lineage Diva was none too pleased with all the stares and had no desire to linger.
As top powerhouses of the Samsara Galaxy, the Three Divas were not approached lightly. The representatives from the other sects could only watch as they departed.
"Eh? Why is there a man?"
Their departure instantly stirred a ripple of surprise and mockery.
"What man? The Extreme Yin Celestial Realm is a purgatory for men. He's definitely castrated, a eunuch for sure."
"Poor fellow, no wonder he’s so effeminate."
On the celestial formation, this brief flurry of gossip sparked a small commotion.
The Harmony Divine Palace’s representatives were among the earlier arrivals.
According to Wan Ji, within the next half day, up to 100,000,000 cultivators would converge on the Grand Assembly Arena
Among them, some were participating prodigies, while most were spectators from various celestial sects and worlds.
The Grand Assembly Arena was soon to be the liveliest spot in the Samsara Galaxy!
