2171 The Apocalypse Martial Ruler Takes Action, The Formation King’s Hesitation, Everyone Gathers

In Myriad Arms City in Feng Domain, Nuwa was refining the Hongmeng Supreme Treasure she obtained from the Great Dao Spirit World.

As time passed, her connection with the item grew stronger, allowing her to gradually learn some new information.

"The lineage of humanity, the first ancestor, the Nine Humanity Treasures… I see."

A look of realization appeared on Nuwa's face.

"To think that such a big secret is hidden within the Creation Crystal."

…

Meanwhile, in the Apocalypse Martial Society in Feng Domain, the Apocalypse Martial Ruler was holding a jade scroll. 

Information about Chu Kuangren and his subordinates' latest movements in Feng Domain was recorded inside it.

When he learned that Chu Kuangren was gathering cultivators from the Pan Gu Universe to form a force, his gaze gradually turned cold.

"Well, Chu Kuangren, not only have you taken possession of Myriad Arms City that I had my eyes on, but you've even started to establish a new force in the Feng Domain. If this isn't a clear sign of going against me, what is? To think a puny Primordial like you would dare do such a thing. Where did you get your courage from?"

"Is it because the Radiant Goddess has your back?"

The Apocalypse Martial Ruler's expression was grim. 

Previously, he could overlook Chu Kuangren killing a few of his Apocalypse Martial Society's Killer Stars because he did not wish to burn bridges with the Radiant Goddess.

However, this time, Chu Kuangren wanted to create a force in the Feng Domain. Taking into account his grudge against the Apocalypse Martial Society, Chu Kuangren's force would surely go against him one day. There was no way he was about to stand idly by and allow that to happen.

"Chu Kuangren's tactics are elusive, and he possess unlimited potential as a cultivator. If I don't get rid of him fast enough, he'll certainly become a threat to me in the future!"

"He must die! The faster the better!"

"He may be creating his force this time, but the next, he will surely lead his men and march toward the Apocalypse Martial Society. I can't wait any longer!"

Apocalypse Martial Ruler pondered a while and contacted someone.

Soon, several ancient restrictions appeared before him.

Inside the restrictions, a figure that exuded an incredibly profound aura appeared.

That person was none other than the Formation King from the Heavenly Formation Palace.

"Formation King, I have decided to take action against Chu Kuangren. Are you willing to join forces with me?" The Apocalypse Martial Ruler looked at the Formation King and said.

The Formation King was a little surprised.

"Oh? Don't you care about the Radiant Goddess anymore?"

"Hmph, you and I both know how much potential Chu Kuangren has. To be honest, I think he's even more terrifying compared to the Tempest King back then. If we hesitate to take action now, it'll be too late when he grows stronger in the future."

"Hm…" The Formation King pondered.

He recalled everything related to Chu Kuangren that he knew.

He, too, felt that the Apocalypse Martial Ruler's words made sense, but he hesitated. After all, proceeding with that would mean burning bridges with the Radiant Goddess.

The Apocalypse Martial Ruler knew that the Formation King was hesitating because of that. He said, "I don't need you to take action yourself. You only need to stall her for me."

The Formation King's eyes lit up.

He would hesitate if it meant ruining his relationship with the Radiant Goddess. However, if it was only to stall her, he still had the guts to do it.

"Ha! I'll agree with that.

"Although I can't take action myself, I can find you someone. With him around, you might not even need to take action anymore."

"Oh, who is that?" The Apocalypse Martial Ruler was slightly surprised.

"The second on the Grand Dao Leaderboard, Jue Jian!"

"Oh, it's him… Interesting."

The Apocalypse Martial Ruler nodded. "This person is almost on par with the Radiant Right Sky King. It'll be great if you can convince him to take action."

Both Jue Jian and the Radiant Right Sky King were beings who had existed since the previous era.

They were only one step away from reaching the Grand Dao Supreme Honorable Realm.

Similar to the Right Sky King, Jue Jian's immense strength allowed him to surpass those in the same cultivation realm as him.

The strongest cultivator in the Apocalypse Martial Society was Long Sha, a Grand Dao Supreme Honorable. However, if he were to face off against Jue Jian, his chances of winning would be less than ten percent.

"May everything go well for you."

With that, the Formation King's figure dispersed into countless light particles.

The Apocalypse Martial Ruler snorted with disdain after the Formation King left. "How can someone as cowardly as him become a Monarch? No wonder the Tempest King beat him up so badly that he couldn't even lift his head during the previous Hongmeng Era."

A hint of regret then appeared on his face.

"Alas, after searching for so many years in the Feng Domain, I still can't find anything related to the God of Slaughter. If I can obtain the God of Slaughter's legacy, why would I need to fear the Radiant Goddess?"

He shook his head.

The God of Slaughter was a being that gave rise to the birth of Carnage Dao.

The Apocalypse Martial Ruler had spent too long searching for that being. Just with the fragments of information he obtained, it allowed the Apocalypse Martial Ruler to grow and reach that current level. If he were to find the God of Slaughter's inheritance…

The thought made the Apocalypse Martial Ruler's eyes lit up with excitement.

"After so many years of searching, the Feng Domain is the most likely the place where I can find the God of Slaughter's inheritance. I must maintain my control over this territory."

"Chu Kuangren, you want to encroach upon my territory, huh? In your dreams!"

…

In Myriad Arms City, increasingly more Pan Gu Universe cultivators began to gather.

The West Ruler Matriarch had just arrived with Yu Zhi, who happened to see a few familiar faces. She quickly went up and greeted them.

"Lady Chu and Lady Shang."

They were Chu Hong and Shang Honghua.

"Oh, it's you, Lady Yu Zhi."

The two ladies looked happy to see Yu Zhi. After all, as members of the former Black Heaven Nine Stars, they had quite a good relationship with each other.

"Did you guys come after receiving news that Brother Chu is here?"

"Of course."

Shang Honghua nodded. "When I heard about our King planning to create his new force here to protect the Pan Gu Universe's cultivators, how could I not make my way here?"

"Ha! Well said."

A heroic laughter sounded from behind them.

Jue Wushen and a few Celestial Demon cultivators slowly approached.

One of them at the front was a man in long green robes and holding a dark long spear. The man was the strongest Celestial Demon cultivator, Wu Han.

He looked at the West Ruler Matriarch and nodded gently. "Greetings, fellow Daoist Sister."

"Oh, the famous Celestial Demon Wu Han. Although this is the first time we've met, your reputation proceeds you. It is a pleasure meeting you," the West Ruler Matriarch remaked politely.

They continued chatting as they walked, eventually entering a massive cavern-like world.

That cavern was specially created under Chu Kuangren's orders.

The Pan Gu Universe cultivators who came from across the land were mostly settled down here.

Although they were all from the Pan Gu Universe, the cultivators had subconsciously split into several groups. The cultivators from the ancient Immortal era, like the Three Clarities, Fu Xi, and Nuwa, were grouped together. Meanwhile, the ones from the same era as Chu Kuangren were in another group,

"Way to go, Lan Yu. You are now among the top two hundred on the Primordial Leaderboard. You're amazing." Shang Honghua looked at Lan Yu and praised her.

"You guys are not bad either."

Lan Yu chuckled. Seeing the comrades who once fought by her side gathered around her again, she was in a great mood.

"Oh, that's right. You were the first one who met our King here. Do you know what level of cultivation he is at now?" Jue Wushen asked curiously.

Not to mention Shang Honghua, Jue Wushen, and the others, but even those from the ancient Immortal era had turned their ears toward them.

They were very curious about that too.

"Master is attempting to break through to the Grand Dao Realm soon."

Lan Yu did not mind answering the question.

After all, many people already knew about it.

"Only the Grand Dao Realm?"

An indifferent voice sounded.

Following that, Blazing Flames surged into the cave.

A figure with long white hair appeared amidst the Blazing Flames.

It was none other than Armament Destruction.
