Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 2179: Chapter 2178: Du Xi

Divine Dream Star, matching the Divine Dream Sect, was naturally the Main Star of the Divine Dream Sect, one of the Nine Factions.

The Sect Residence of the Divine Dream Sect was beyond description; only the word ”vast” could begin to explain it.

Looking out, all one could see were pavilions and towers stretching for hundreds of thousands of li, with no end in sight.

Only, at this moment, many of these buildings were partially shattered; even the great gate of the Sect Residence had broken in half.

The ground was dyed crimson with blood, the stench of it thick in the air.

Countless corpses had just been taken away—some cremated, some thrown who knew where.

The appearance of the Extraterritorial Demons was not only from the Starry Sky; to be precise, they appeared directly upon the surface of the star.

On every star, even the Three Great Stars, there would be Extraterritorial Demons.

They could not block those snowflakes, nor that blood and Blood Mist; naturally, they could not stop the appearance of the Extraterritorial Demons.

Divine Dream Star had just gone through a bloody battle.

Fortunately, when the Extraterritorial Demons first appeared, there were no particularly powerful existences among them.

Thus, the Divine Dream Sect, with a sweeping momentum, quickly cleared out those Extraterritorial Demons, while those in the Starry Sky were blocked outside.

Yet even so, at least tens of millions of Divine Dream Sect Disciples, unable to react in time, died on the spot.

Even a powerful Sect like the Divine Dream Sect still could not fully withstand the invasion of the Extraterritorial Demons.

Deafening rumbles kept coming from beyond the Starry Sky.

The Star Formation of Divine Dream Star swayed and trembled from time to time, as if it might collapse at any moment.

The Grand Formation of the Sect had long since been activated; though it was constantly consuming an enormous amount of Spirit Crystals, this was a helpless necessity.

Once the Star Formation was breached, the Extraterritorial Demons would flood into Divine Dream Star like a tide; activating the Star Formation in advance was also a preemptive defense.

Countless Disciples were standing on the surface layer of Divine Dream Star, their auras surging, all kinds of defensive techniques upon them, various weapons in their hands.

Their expressions were extremely cold and stern.

Their figures stood ramrod straight.

In their eyes, killing intent burned.

In their hearts, anger boiled up.

Looking outward, across the entire Starry Sky, everything that entered their sight was a single scene.

That was...one hideous figure after another!

These figures seemed able to appear out of thin air; even if the Divine Dream Sect’s Dao Sovereign Realm Super Powerhouses struck, wiping out several million in an instant, before long they would again densely cover the void.

This situation drove people to despair.

If killing more meant there would be fewer, they could still harbor hope in their hearts; but like this...when would it ever end?

They watched with their own eyes as one Cultivator after another fell at the hands of those Extraterritorial Demons.

The methods of the Extraterritorial Demons were extremely cruel: they tore apart fleshly bodies, or used their teeth to rip and bite directly, then swallowed them; even the blood was completely drained.

They seemed to be using this method to threaten, to intimidate, to cow the Cultivators of the Lower-Class Star Region.

From the deaths of Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators at the beginning, to Spirit Body Realm cultivators unable to hold on, then the Void Heaven Realm, Divine Sea Realm, Fusion Realm...

Until two hours ago, these Disciples of the Divine Dream Sect saw with their own eyes a Fifth Grade Unity Realm Expert die at the hands of the Extraterritorial Demons.

That scene filled them with grief.

The Cultivation Base of the dead Cultivators kept rising; no one could imagine whether, one day, Dao Sovereign Realm Super Powerhouses would also fall to the Extraterritorial Demons.

And Heavenly Emperor Realm?

...

In a certain stretch of Void, dozens of people were standing there.

At the very front was a middle-aged man.

His face carried an air of majesty; his hands were clasped behind his back, and his Jin Yi Dragon Robe made him look incomparably noble.

The aura on his body had already been withdrawn, making him appear like a mortal; yet the Fusion Realm cultivators behind him, and even the two Dao Sovereign Realm Super Powerhouses, were treating him with the utmost respect.

He was the Sect Master of the Divine Dream Sect, and one of the few Heavenly Emperor Realm powerhouses in the Lower-Class Star Region—Du Tianlin!

He stood in the Void, only a finger’s breadth away from the Star Formation.

Du Tianlin could clearly see countless Extraterritorial Demons pressed tightly against the Star Formation, their ugly faces filling him with disgust.

”A great calamity of Heaven and Earth...”

At a certain moment, Du Tianlin spoke, the hands clasped behind his back clenching slightly.

No one spoke to him; the area was silent, the atmosphere extremely oppressive.

”Report to Sect Master—”

Just then, an anxious voice came.

”Report to Sect Master, the young lady has escaped from Falling Rain Mountain and is running toward the Starry Sky!”

”What?!”

Du Tianlin abruptly turned his head, barking coldly, ”What were you all doing? Didn’t I tell you to keep a close watch on her?”

”We blocked the young lady, but she threatened to burn her Primordial Spirit; we didn’t dare stop her any further!”

The one making the report spoke with a bitter face: ”And after she rushed out, she even activated the boots you gave her. Our speed...for a while, we simply couldn’t catch up.”

”Hmph!”

Du Tianlin snorted coldly, saying nothing more. His terrifying Divine Sense spread out instantly, covering the entire Divine Dream Star in a flash.

A moment later, his figure became Illusory.

In just a second, that Illusory figure condensed once more.

And in this place, there was now one more woman.

This woman wasn’t a peerless beauty that could topple cities, but she was still extremely beautiful; dressed in Qingyi, her temperament was cold, and she was glaring at Du Tianlin with a face full of anger.

”Why did you drag me back? You might as well let me die!” the woman said furiously.

”Xi’er!”

Du Tianlin frowned slightly and scolded lightly, ”Look clearly at the current situation. Stop causing trouble for your father, will you?”

”No!”

The woman shot back directly, ”If you won’t let me go to Phoenix Star, won’t let me see Su Qing, then I can only choose death!”

This woman was precisely Du Xi!

Ever since she returned to Divine Dream Star, she had been confined; without using the threat of burning her Primordial Spirit today, it would have been impossible for her to get out.

”Presumptuous!”

Du Tianlin glared at Du Xi and said, ”All day long it’s Su Qing this, Su Qing that. What is he, really? Take a look at yourself—you’re the daughter of the Sect Master of the Divine Dream Sect. And look at him, just the son of a small Sect Master in a Lower-Class Star Region. In what way is he worthy of you?”

”Heh, yet that ugly freak from the Immortal Sovereign Pavilion can catch your eye and is considered worthy of me, is that it?”

Du Xi let out a cold laugh and said, ”My dear, adorable father, have you not noticed what era we’re living in now? And you still want to decide marriages from the cradle? Still talking about matching doorways and equal status? I, Du Xi, am not a child; how can I let you lot decide my lifelong marriage for me?”

”I’m doing this for your own good!” Du Tianlin said.

”If you were really doing it for my own good, then let me go find Su Qing!”

Du Xi planted her left hand on her slim waist, pointed at Du Tianlin with her right hand, and said like a little shrew, ”Du Tianlin, I’m telling you this: in this life of mine, Du Xi will marry no one but Su Qing!”
