Ancient Godly Monarch

Chapter 1718: Heavenheart Mandate

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Blood seeped from the corners of Wang Yi’s mouth. His eyes gleamed sharply, as expected of the battlefield of the dusk of gods. They encountered a world overlord zombie so quickly. If that zombie had intelligence, it probably wouldn’t be so easy to deal with him.

The world overlord realm meant that one’s comprehension of laws must reach a point where they can cause a world heart to materialize, manifesting their Heavenheart Mandate. Their strength was undoubtedly extremely terrifying.

Heavenheart Mandate can also be known as heaven’s will. It truly represented the fact that those who comprehended a Heavenheart Mandate had surpassed the empyrean realm and the words ‘my will is heaven will,’ is the epitome of Heavenheart Mandates.

However, since they traversed across immortal realms and came from so far away, how could these experts not be prepared? How would they retreat in the face of danger? Their powerful immortal sense continued scanning ahead, probing the boundless desolation. Over here, there seemed to be no end to the landscape, it was boundlessly vast. But they also understood that for a true supremely strong power, its territories were simply boundless. For their Heaven Deity Race they were from, this was precisely the case.

Although the word used was a ‘race,’ the territories they controlled were so large that it was more like a world. After developing for millions of years, how strong would they be now? And how many members of their race would they have? The number would be unimaginable, their population and territories they controlled would surely be extremely huge.

In addition, given how vast this landscape is, they all understood that it was highly possible that they might encounter bouts of good fortune here.

Many empyreans didn’t feel too calm in their hearts. Even for those who had been in this realm for many years, it still was hard for them to maintain their calm in this gloomy atmosphere. This was especially so after that world overlord zombie appeared, several of the empyreans were already dead.

The group of experts continued ahead cautiously, all of them were extremely terrifying but they felt incomparably tiny and inconsequential in this stretch of desolation. Under the black sun, they advanced forward, travelling through the wilderness. From the vantage point of the sun, they seemed incredibly tiny, just like small particles slowly moving forward. However, at the center of this stretch of desolation, there were also a number of tiny figures spread around the area, standing there silently. It seemed that they had been standing still for a countless number of years.

At this moment, those silent figures seemed to have sensed something. Their blank eyes suddenly gleamed with a sinister killing intent. After that, their bodies started to move towards a direction.

“Stop.” Almost at the same time, those empyreans from the Heavenly Deity Race raised their hands and spoke. They felt a sense of unease, as though they just entered a location of ambush. The sense of unease kept growing stronger the more they proceeded forward.

At this moment, a silhouette flickered and appeared in their vision silently. This figure had wounds all over his body, there were holes everywhere and his eyes didn’t have the luster of a living human. Clearly, this was also a zombie. Those who died during the world-ending battle back then in Ancient Azure Mystic, their souls didn’t scatter despite their deaths. Could it be that the Imperishable Heaven Lord used some heaven-defying methods to transform them into zombies?

More and more zombies appeared in their vision, surrounding the empyreans who entered the ancient battlefield. Before these zombies acted, it was impossible to tell how strong they really were but the unease in the hearts of the empyreans had already reached a peak. At that time earlier, that world overlord zombie had also appeared before them silently.

What if all these zombies were world overlords? What terrible consequences would they face? They didn’t dare to continue thinking about it.

Maybe, them wanting to seek out good fortune in the ancient battleground was nothing but a foolish dream with their empyrean cultivation bases.

“Puchi…” At this moment, the body of an empyrean was suddenly slashed into two. Even before that empyrean could react, his lower body was already split off. After that, boundless terror appeared on his face.

“NO!” A voice filled with misery howled. That empyrean was completely terrified. The others all started trembling when they saw the scene before them. In the next instant, even more empyreans were slashed apart silently and without warning. This entire space transformed into a world of slaughter, the empyreans inside were being torn apart.

“World overlord level…This must be the Skyrip Heavenheart Mandate, formed from the source origins of spatial laws and sword laws. It can directly rip holes in the sky, let alone the bodies of humans!” A person shouted. Evidently, there was a world overlord among the zombies who acted. He didn’t say anything and directly attacked the invaders. This place was a place that they had to guard. Although they were no longer capable of thought, their obsessions from the past still remained. They would slaughter all invaders.

Heavenheart Mandate was equal to the will of the heavens, it had already exceeded the boundary of source origins and was a kind of transcendent energy, a brand new energy.

In the void, illusory flames appeared, directly shooting into the bodies of many empyreans. Many people let out screams from the burns and their bodies were instantly incinerated. Another zombie had acted, this zombie had also comprehended a Heavenheart Mandate when it was alive and was a world overlord character.

In the blink of an eye, screams of agony and pain filled the air as countless experts died one after the other. The countances of those experts from the Heavenly Deity Race all drastically changed.

“Young Master Wang, save me!” Someone begged, seeking help from the Heavenly Deity Race. If they didn’t act, the other empyreans were like weeds waiting to be plucked out by the world overlord zombies, unable to withstand a single strike. The disparity in cultivation realms, how could they stand up to world overlords? So what even if they are empyreans?

Panic and terror permeated the atmosphere, all of this happened in the span of a few breaths of time and a third of the experts here had already died.

Before Wang Yi, the ancient bell radiated an incomparably resplendent light that enveloped him protectively, other energies weren’t able to invade or corrode it. Wang Yi had his eyes closed, it was like he was in communication with the ancient bell. A moment later, a terrifying might gushed forth from the bell, followed by the bell chimes. With a thunderous boom, many people felt their souls shuddering. The ancient bell flew forward and its light directly enveloped one of the zombie world overlords.

“RUMBLE~” The ancient bell locked onto the zombie. That world overlord zombie took a step forward as the power of his Heavenheart Mandate erupted forth. Boundless tearing and ripping might slashed against the ancient bell, causing the bell chimes to intensify. However, the ancient bell didn’t seem to be damaged at all. The light from it grew brighter and brighter, converging into a beam of light that sought to slaughter everything. The world overlord’s movements were restricted, and at this moment, the power of a Heavenheart Mandate that didn’t belong to Wang Yi erupted forth from the bell, directly tearing the zombie to shreds.

Not only was Wang Yi fighting, the other experts from the Heavenly Deity Race acted as well. They took out supreme divine weapons and unleashed unfathomable might. For a period of time, this stretch of desolation was filled with an aura of power so dreadful that many of the other surviving empyreans felt their hearts trembling.

Qin Wentian stood among the crowd. He naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to rush out alone at this moment as that would be courting death. These zombies wouldn’t care who he was, or whether he was from Azure Mystic or the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. They only had a single thought in their minds, and that is to slaughter all invaders. Although his combat prowess was extraordinary, he wasn’t confident enough to fight against world overlords. World overlords were existences on another level.

The higher one cultivated, the disparity between the cultivation realms would only grow greater and greater. The difference of a single step was equal to the distance between the heavens and earth. Everytime one took a step forward, that would be considered a huge improvement.

Let alone him, even those experts from the Heavenly Deity Race with their overlord-ranked divine weapons found it hard to contend against the world overlord zombies. Qin Wentian naturally saw it clearly, the power of those weapons were no longer something empyreans could control. It seemed that the weapons automatically activated, sending out waves of overlord-ranked might to deal with the zombies. Qin Wentian guessed that before these experts came here, the divine weapons they had were already modified by special techniques. There should be world overlords in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms controlling these weapons through a link, disregarding the vast distances through realms.

The foundations of the Heavenly Deity Race in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms were simply too deep. No matter what sort of wondrous methods and techniques they had, it was nothing strange.

The ancient bell in Wang Yi’s hand unleashed devastating levels of power, destroying everything, killing world overlord zombies or anything that dared to obstruct him.

Also, the white feathered fan waved about, sealing the area around it with frost. Those zombies that were frozen all shattered into pieces before they dissipated along with the wind. Clearly, this wasn’t something source origins of empyreans could accomplish. The fan was also an overlord-ranked divine weapon, capable of unleashing the might of a Heavenheart Mandate.

As for that winged expert from the Heavenly Deity Race, a set of divine treasure in the form of wings appeared behind him, fusing together with his own wings. He also had a divine spear in his hands. With a flap of his wings, he appeared before a zombie and ran him through with the spear, tearing the zombie into pieces. Several zombies then died beneath the power of his wings and spear.

These experts from the Heavenly Deity Race truly went all out now.

A destructive great battle instantly erupted. Qin Wentian, who was in the crowd, evaded the zombies left and right. Around him, many empyreans died one after the other, but the number of zombies were dwindling as well. After some time, the zombies were completely annihilated, but only 50% of the empyreans had survived. This was a truly terrifying death rate.

“What sort of place is this exactly?” Wang Yi’s expression grew extremely unsightly. Although they vanquished the enemies, he felt a heavy sense of defeat. He who had always been extremely confident actually needed to borrow external forces to fight so quickly after they entered this ancient battlefield for such a short time. He couldn’t depend on his own strength to fight and this made him extremely uncomfortable. This stretch of desolation might be the territories of a super power in the past that had many world overlords. From this, one could very well imagine how terrifying this super power was.

Although there was a sense of defeat in his heart, there was also anticipation. They continued to head into the depths of the mountain range, and all the zombies they encountered on their way, were all killed by them.

After several more days, they finally came to a location. When they saw the scene before their eyes, tidal waves of shock rose in their hearts.

Far away, in their vision, a number of diapliated ancient palaces could be seen, the majesticness of the place had already faded and had now become a ruin. There were a few astral stone pillars that still gleamed with light, but the light from them was clearly much dimmer now. On one of the pillars, a figure with only half a body stood there. He was clad in luxurious robes, like an absolute ruler from the skies. However, the sight of his half-body and the terrifying aura he exuded, filled the hearts of all the empyreans with shock.

What was even more terrifying is that in the air above the figure with the half body, another person could be seen floating quietly in the air. Gigantic wings could be seen behind his back, the light he radiated illuminated the surroundings and his wingspan blotted out the sky. His wings gave off a feeling of being one with the Great Dao!

This man, seemed to be a true heavenly deity!
