Chapter 1877  Chapter 502: Decline of the Eastern Domain (Part 2)

Now, the path he has comprehended took thirty years to construct what he envisioned, but the result was disappointing.

The speed of integration with the Realm Heart has slowed, but it was only slowed, not halted, much less permanently aligned.

“Kite, layering, stable seven-pointed star… none of it works.”

Li Hao deeply understood the feeling of “racking one’s brains”. He exhausted all his thoughts but couldn’t find the right answer, having the urge to give up over a hundred times. Even if he failed, becoming the King’s Domain wouldn’t be a loss.

But… he was unwilling.

He knew that once he admitted defeat, when the calamity arrived, with only the King’s Domain, could he really protect Feng and the others?

That abandonment would not only be a surrender of the pursuit of the Emperor Dao, but also forsaking Feng and the others.

“It’s been two hundred years, I must complete it before the war begins…”

Li Hao frowned deeply; after all, comprehending the Emperor Dao could take a thousand years even with a sudden enlightenment. He was more worried about being trapped on this path when the calamity arrived, unable to open the way, then being bound within the Heaven Tower.

“Coexist… coexist…”

Li Hao continued to immerse himself in contemplation.

…

Eastern Domain.

War flames swept everywhere, with the main force of the magic tides crossing the third line of defense, attacking the strongholds of each clan in the Eastern Domain.

Among them, some weaker races were already wiped out by the Ancient Demons, leaving desolation; had it not been for the clan members being dispersed, they might have faced genocide.

“Ahead is the Ancestor Dragon Court…”

The magic tides swept in, reaching the heartland of the Eastern Domain, which was its center and most resplendent and luxurious place. A towering dragon court stood magnificently, with its golden brilliance exuding a noble aura that dyed the entire region in dazzling gold.

Large sculptures of Ancestor Dragons stood outside the Ancestor Dragon Court. These sculptures were all array foundations, connected to form an Emperor-level Array.

“It seems this is the final line of defense for the Eastern Domain.”

At the rear of the magic tides, Yama Emperor Venerable gazed at the Ancestor Dragon Court ahead and quickly discerned that those mountain-like Ancestor Dragon sculptures were extremely extraordinary, containing formidable aura and Divine Soul Power, rooted like nails in the earth, concentrating the Immortal Vein power from all around, weaving and binding the Ten Thousand Dao Laws of the surrounding world into a terrifying formation.

Just this array alone was comparable to an Emperor Venerable, unable to be broken by anyone less than one.

Even if he were to make a move, it would take considerable time.

But eventually, they had reached the heartland of the Eastern Domain.

Capturing the Ancestor Dragon Court ahead, the entirety of the Eastern Domain would be under control. If this battle were won, those other clans watching and waiting would unite as agreed, and the surges of the past would once again sweep across the True Realm. This time they were more fully prepared, and what they had displayed so far was far from their true strength.

“I will break the formation.”

The Emperor Venerable of the Poison Corrosion Clan said calmly.

The terrifying Emperor’s Might emanated from his body as he approached the Ancestor Dragon Court.

Facing the massive, mountain-like sculptures outside the Ancestor Dragon Court, and the innumerable vigilant Immortal Kings within, this Emperor Venerable’s expression was extremely tranquil, as if he were heading alone into a vast army, yet his momentum suggested that it was he who had encircled that vast army.

…

Western Regions, Saint Clans.

In the Western Regions, countless Immortal Dynasties stood, unlike in the Southern Domain where the Heavenly Palace Venerable was the leader, the Eastern Domain with the Ancestor Dragon Court as the hub, or the Northern Domain where the great clans of the Emperor Star took command. In the Western Regions, many Immortal Dynasties coexisted, and dragons and serpents mingled. Here, wars raged year-round, with constant strife among the Immortal Dynasties, shaping the fierce clan ethos of the Western Regions.

Among the Four Domains, the Immortal Divine Beings of the Western Regions were the most fierce and combative.

The Saint Clan ranked fourth among the Ten Thousand Clans, trailing only the Heavenly Emperor Clan, Dao Clan, and Taichu Clan. In the Western Regions, it was a top-tier great clan, but even so, it could not win the allegiance of all or completely unify the Western Regions.

“The Eastern Domain is finished. This time, the main battlefield will be in the Eastern Domain. How is the progress of the True King we, All Clans, have prepared? Can our Saint Heir secure the position of the First True King Commander?”

Within the Saint Clan, an elderly man slowly asked.

A Quasi-Emperor Realm aura emanated from him; he was a Supreme Elder within the Saint Clan.

“Two hundred years ago, there was a preliminary competition. The Saint Heir is currently ranked seventh; the first is Di Mingyuan from the Heavenly Emperor Clan. That old fellow has been cultivating for many years, long capable of breaking through to Quasi-Emperor, yet he has delayed in doing so. It is said he wishes to leap from Immortal King directly to Emperor, skipping the Quasi-Emperor Realm!”

Another elder snorted coldly, saying, “In my view, there’s an eighty percent chance that the Emperor Clan had foreseen something long ago and laid plans in advance, intentionally keeping him in check just for this.”

“That’s not quite it.”

Another noblewoman, with an elegant and dignified bearing, said calmly, “After all, it’s a matter affecting the True Realm’s Ten Thousand Clans. If they had foreseen the Ancient Demon calamity, they would have spread the news earlier. Even if the Heavenly Emperor Clan has many Immortal Emperors, the entire True Realm’s Immortal Emperors are not theirs alone to discern such secrets.”

“The position of the First Commander is out of the question. I heard that in this Abyss competition, there is also a Great Emperor reincarnated. If they recover to the peak of the Immortal King Realm’s cultivation, sweeping all in the same realm should not be difficult.”

A young man next to them spoke; his face appeared extremely youthful, yet his eyes were seasoned beyond his age, and he too was a Quasi-Emperor Elder of the Saint Clan.

“In that case, the Emperor Clan can also forget about claiming it.”

The noblewoman from earlier laughed lightly. The Emperor Clan had always had issues with them, and there had been some friction over the years. If the Emperor Clan secured the First Commander, it would indeed be disadvantageous for the Saint Clan.

“Tell the Saint Heir that under no circumstances should he relent, at the very least securing a True King spot.”

The stern-looking elder above spoke in a somber tone.
