The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1753: Chapter 1753: Overwhelmed and Beset by Troubles

Having just transmitted here through the Ancient Transmission Array from the One-eyed Clan Territory, Jing Yan spread out his powerful Divine Soul to determine his location.

It’s naturally impossible to determine the location precisely; the Ancient Transmission Array covers extremely vast distances, and the transmission points cannot be accurately pinpointed. Generally, it’s just a rough coordinate.

However, that’s already sufficient. Even if the precise location can’t be determined immediately, it’s just a matter of consuming a bit more time.

Jing Yan used his Chaos Star Map, spending over ten days, to finally understand where he was.

”Not bad, the distance from here to Sky Creation City isn’t far. If I travel at full speed, it will take about half a year to reach the Sky Creation City area.”

”Hmm, I can’t delay any longer; I must hurry to Sky Creation City.”

”Whoosh!”

Ultimate Nihility was employed, and Jing Yan’s figure disappeared.

In the Chaos Void, Jing Yan continuously used the Ultimate Nihility Domain to travel.

The Chaos Void is essentially a silent wasteland. On normal journeys, one hardly ever sees the presence of other Boundary Domains. Although each Boundary Domain is very large, they are minuscule, like a drop of water, like a grain of sand, compared to the entire Chaos Void.

Of course, with the Chaos Star Map, it’s not difficult to find these Boundary Domains. Those clans’ cultivators, loose cultivators, and some Initial Creatures wandering in Chaos generally rely on the Chaos Star Map. Without the Chaos Star Map, even a High-level Great Witch or a powerhouse of Lady Nu Zhen’s level could get lost.

Half a year later, Jing Yan gradually approached Sky Creation City.

Countless cultivators believe that Sky Creation City is the center of the Chaotic Universe. This notion is indeed correct. However, although Sky Creation City holds the Sky Creation City Alliance’s power, it’s not the most prestigious force in the Chaotic Universe.

Compared to most clans’ Boundary Domains, the human territory is relatively closer to Sky Creation City.

Sky Creation City is bustling with shadows of people.

In fact, during ordinary times, the number of cultivators in Sky Creation City isn’t very high. The numbers only increase a bit during the times when the Chaos Secret Realm opens, gathering many cultivators from various clans.

Ever since the Fire Worship Path Alliance declared war on the Sky Creation City Alliance, Sky Creation City has become extremely lively. Hundreds of clans’ powerhouses have gathered within the city walls.

The Sky Creation City Council often convenes, deliberating on how to combat Fire Worship Path.

For the past few centuries, the Councilmen and Elders of the Sky Creation City Council have been utterly worn out. Because, in the grand conflict between the Sky Creation City Alliance and the Fire Worship Path Alliance, the Sky Creation City Alliance has lost more than it’s won. Currently, many clans’ Boundary Domains have been breached by the Fire Worship Path Alliance, and yet the Sky Creation City Alliance is powerless to provide rescue.

This situation continues to spread.

The one now presiding over the council is the Human Clan Venerable Xiao Ye. Xiao Ye is the second chair, with status and position only beneath the Chief Chairman. Chief Chairman Ao Tian hasn’t returned since departing with the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix.

In today’s council, Xiao Ye serves as the second chair. Among the nine elders, two are from the Earth Clan, two from the Netherworld Clan, one from the Human Clan, one from the Yin Yang Clan, one from the White Crystal Clan. The remaining two elders are from the Beast Clan, and currently, the Beast Clan elders, like Chief Chairman Ao Tian, have not returned.

For several centuries now, Elder Xiao Ye’s life has been truly tough, and he appears much more aged.

”Honorable Second Chair!”

Someone calls out from outside Xiao Ye’s residence.

”Enter,” Xiao Ye responds upon hearing the voice.

The person who enters from outside is Ren Jiang Venerable of the Human Clan, one of the council’s Ninth Elders.

Ren Jiang Elder’s complexion seemed quite unpleasant at this time.

”Ren Jiang Elder, what’s the matter?” Xiao Ye invited Elder Ren Jiang to sit down.

”The Double-faced Clan Territory is finished.” Ren Jiang Venerable took a deep breath, gazing at Xiao Ye to speak.

The Double-faced Clan is also a member of the Sky Creation City Alliance. This clan’s overall strength is similar to that of the One-eyed Clan, considered an Intermediate clan. However, the Double-faced Clan Territory is much closer to Sky Creation City than the One-eyed Clan Territory. Traveling from Sky Creation City to the Double-faced Clan Territory, even at the speed of a Heavenly Venerate Level Practitioner, without using a Transmission Array, could be reached in about thirty years.

In conclusion, the Double-faced Clan Territory is already very close to Sky Creation City.

Upon hearing Ren Jiang Venerable’s words, Xiao Ye’s face turned gloomy.

Already ten years ago, the Fire Worship Path Alliance had attacked the Double-faced Clan Territory. The Double-faced Clan Territory held its ground for over ten years. Now, finally, it has been breached.

In truth, Xiao Ye had anticipated this outcome. He understood the Double-faced Clan Territory couldn’t withstand the aggressive Fire Worship Path Alliance’s attack, even though the Double-faced Clan Territory received substantial support from the alliance, and despite the alliance dispatching numerous powerhouses to assist, it couldn’t fully repel the ferocious assault from the Fire Worship Path Alliance.

Xiao Ye didn’t display a look of surprise at the news brought by Elder Ren Jiang; his heart simply felt heavier.

With the fall of the Double-faced Clan Territory, could the fall of the next territory be far off? Maybe in a century, the Fire Worship Path Alliance could reach the Sky Creation City area.

”What are our casualties?” After a long silence, Xiao Ye finally asked Ren Jiang.

”Casualties are significant; sixteen Heavenly Venerate Level powerhouses were killed in battle, and one Supreme powerhouse is severely injured. The greatest losses were among the Double-faced Clan’s native cultivators. Most of the Double-faced Clan’s Heavenly Venerate Level practitioners were killed in battle. The Double-faced Clan Territory has now fallen under the control of the Fire Worship Path Alliance. Our people are retreating; according to plan, they will regroup at the White Crystal Clan.” Ren Jiang sighed as he spoke.

The White Crystal Clan originally wasn’t among the six great clans of the Sky Creation City Alliance. The previous six great clans were the Beast Clan, Human Clan, Earth Clan, Yin Yang Clan, Netherworld Clan, and the Spirit Monster Clan. The Spirit Monster Clan had offended Jing Yan, causing their position as Council Elder to be replaced by the White Crystal Clan. The White Crystal Clan is a relatively powerful clan, with the number of Heavenly Venerate Level Practitioners second only to the Netherworld Clan, Human Clan, and Spirit Monster Clan.

The White Crystal Clan Territory is even closer to Sky Creation City.

If the White Crystal Clan Territory is breached, then Sky Creation City would indeed be in extreme peril. From the White Crystal Clan Territory to Sky Creation City, there’s no significant clan territory left for buffering.

Thus, the White Crystal Clan is considered the last line of defense for the Sky Creation City Alliance against the Fire Worship Path Alliance. The Sky Creation City Alliance must exert all efforts to repel the Fire Worship Path Alliance’s attacks in the White Crystal Clan Territory.

Repelling the Fire Worship Path in the White Crystal Clan Territory is actually advantageous for the Sky Creation City Alliance. Namely, within the White Crystal Clan Territory, there exists an immense Transmission Array, directly linking to a Transmission Array outside Sky Creation City. This Super Transmission Array is typically seldom activated or used, but during wartime, one certainly should not begrudge the resources consumed in transmission.
