This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder Chapter 376

Published at 31st of July 2023 01:10:20 PM

Grand Elder Zhang, the Eternal Night Emperor, the immortals of the Buzhou Immortal Sect and Anti-Earth Alliance didn't resist as Tianyi waved his hand, teleporting everyone toward the Eight Pillar Sect—or rather, what was left of it.

“Elder Xi, where did you teleport us to?” Grand Elder Zhang asked. Her immortal senses expanded thousands of kilometers but all she could sense was a ruined land.

The qi was sparse, and nothing was stable. No life or resources could appear here. Occasionally, spatial rifts would appear. Rather than even the lowest ranked realms, this scenery appeared closer to a broken realm. As the name suggested, broken realms were incomplete realms that could not sustain life.

An example of a broken realm would be a world of unending thunderstorms with no land or sea. Under the constant bombardment of lightning and thunder, what mortal life could survive? Not even true immortals could survive. Only immortal monarchs had a chance to survive in such worlds. And, if the immortal monarch comprehended the Law of Lightning, it might even be beneficial.

When the Three Thousand Immortal Realms System first formed, over half of the realms were composed of broken realms, but because of their incompleteness, these broken realms aged faster than normal realms. After the passage of over three millions years, these broken realms died and disintegrated into realm essence. Now, the number of broken realms had shrunk dramatically.

Of course, this knowledge was only known to the Buzhou Immortal Sect in the Huang Realm, and most of their world essence comes from such realms.

Had Tianyi teleported them into a broken realm, Grand Elder Zhang wondered. It was easy to teleport inside a realm, but it was far more difficult to teleport between two realms. But aside from this conclusion, she couldn't think of any reason for the current scenery. Not just her, but the Eternal Night Emperor also thought the same. The immortal monarchs looked over in confusion since they weren't privy to as much information as immortal emperors.

Tianyi could only shake his head helplessly. “This is where the headquarters of the Eight Pillar Sect used to exist.”

Shock flashes across everyone's faces, including Daoyi's. Everyone did a double take. This desolate and ruined land used to house the once-prosperous Eight Pillar Sect? A hegemonic sect on equal footing to the Buzhou Immortal Sect?

“You're not lying, are you?” Grand Elder Zhang asked.

“You can check for yourself whether I'm lying or not. As long as you fly out of the range of devastation, you should probably recognize the landmarks of the Earth Continent.”

Grand Elder Zhang and the Eternal immediately turned into streams of light. Not long later, the immortal monarchs and true immortals followed suit. A few days later, the Eternal Night Emperor returned first with a dazed expression. Since he comprehended the Law of Lightning and the Law of Stars, if he claimed second in terms of speed, few would dare to claim first.

A few days later, Grand Elder Zhang also returned. Like the Eternal Night Emperor, she also sported a dazed expression. She blinked, once, twice, and finally a third time. Her gazes gravitated toward Tianyi and contained within that gaze were a myriad of emotions.

But the greatest emotion conveyed within her eyes was fear.

Not just Grand Elder Zhang, but the Eternal Night Emperor and the rest of the immortals that returned also stared at Tianyi with fear. Some of them couldn't help but speculate if Tianyi wasn't an immortal emperor but immortal sovereign like his mother. Or maybe he used a realm artifact, but if he did, he should be contaminated by a huge amount of karmic sin, yet they could sense no such thing, not even a hint of karmic merit or sin.

Either way, however Tianyi achieved this result, they no longer doubted his words.

“E-Emperor Xi,” the Yangsource Sect Master asked, “How did you accomplish this?”

The other sect masters of the Anti-Heaven Alliance glared at the Yangsource Sect Master in anger. Asking someone's method was akin to asking for potential weakness. In their eyes, Tianyi's position was probably only inferior to his mother, and if he decided to kill them out of anger, they wouldn't be able to do anything or resist.

“I used a technique,” Tianyi said.

A technique, not a realm artifact? Although a few might suspect that Tianyi was lying, more were inclined to believe, especially Grand Elder Zhang. Although she didn't like Tianyi, she knew a bit about him, even if she didn't want to, thanks to Mengfei.

“Let's not talk about it,” Tianyi said. “Although the Eight Pillar Sect is gone, there should still be some vassal sects that did not take part. We should take care of them.”

The immortals' faces changed. Did Tianyi want to wipe out the rest like he did with the Eight Pillar Sect?

“E-Emperor Xi, there's no need to destroy them! Even if they were vassals of the Eight Pillars, they'll easily capitulate once they learned of what happened,” The Goldlight Sect Master said.

Tianyi looked at him with a strange expression. “Who said anything about destroying them?”

An awkward expression appeared on the Goldlight Sect Master's face. “O-f course. I knew that, haha.”

Tianyi's lips twitched. 'I'm being treated like a weapon of mass destruction.'

Daoyi couldn't help but cover her mouth with her sleeves as she giggled. When Tianyi shot a glare at her, the immortal monarchs and the Eternal Night Emperor couldn't help but feel their hearts jump.

“Emperor Xi.” Even the Eternal Night Emperor's addressment toward Tianyi changed. Although he saw Tianyi's battle with Emperor Infinity, he only thought Tianyi's qi, body, and survival abilities were extremely powerful. In his eyes, Tianyi was still too young and his techniques too crude, and it would not be hard to survive against him. But now, his thoughts had completely changed. Although he addressed Tianyi as emperor, he treated Tianyi like an immortal sovereign.

“The forces loyal to the Eight Pillar Sect can be cleaned up later. We should reinforce Grand Elder Xi,” Eternal Night Emperor said . “Although Grand Elder Xi is an origin immortal, the Cloud Goddess is equal to her.”

“You don't know?”

Hearing Tianyi's questions and the weird look on his face, the Eternal Night Emperor couldn't help but ask, “Don't know what?”

Tianyi turned towards Grand Elder Zhang. “Should I tell him or you?”

“Tell him what?” Grand Elder Zhang asked with furrowed brows.

Realization dawned on Tianyi. “I might as well tell everyone now. Actually, the situation on the Heaven Continent should be even simpler than the Earth Continent.”

The Eternal Night Emperor and Grand Elder Zhang glanced at each other. What did Tianyi mean by this? Not just them, but the other immortal monarchs couldn't help but reveal puzzled expressions. Currently, their curiosity overrode their fear of Tianyi.

Daoyi could see that Tianyi was enjoying whetting everyone's appetite. Finally, she couldn't handle it anymore. “Stop dilly-dallying and just tell them.”

“Ruin my fun, why don't you?” Tianyi griped, but he didn't prolong everyone's torture. “Actually, the Cloud Goddess is…”

Monarch Fiveseal frowned. Behind him were numerous immortals traveling to the Cloud Goddess Cult. It wasn't just the Five Element Sect doing this, but the Drifting Feather Sect, Nihility Sect, and Jade Cauldron Sect. All members of the Anti-Heaven Alliance were ordered to dispatch their army to the Cloud Goddess Sect because word leaked that a massive amount of monarchs and true immortals from the Buzhou Immortal Sect appeared on the Earth Continent.

Still, Monarch Fiveseal couldn't help but sense the abnormality of the situation. The Anti-Heaven Alliance had contested with the Buzhou Immortal Sect for hundreds of thousands of years now, so they had a certain understanding of their mortal enemy. The Buzhou Immortal Sect was like a stable mountain, never fumbling and always taking the safest actions and taking no risks. So why did they divert a large amount of their forces to the Earth Continent at this crucial time?

What did the Eight Pillar Sect offer that was so attractive for them to take this high risk? Was the Buzhou Immortal Sect not afraid of the Anti-Heaven Alliance taking advantage of the situation? Or was it a scheme to lure them into a false sense of security?

Monarch Fiveseal shook his head. Even if it was a trap, they still might have to attack. This chance was just that precious.

Once the troops of the Five Element Sect arrived at the Cloud Goddess Sect, they were immediately escorted to the residence prepared for them. While most of the immortals were led away, the top echelon entered the sacred hall of the Cloud Goddess Cult. To their surprise, the members of the Nihility Sect and Jade Cauldron Sect had already arrived.

After thinking it through, it didn't surprise Monarch Fiveseal much. The Nihility Sect and Jade Cauldron Sect joined later, so they had more to prove than the other members of the alliance.

Monarch Fiveseal, the Five Element Sect Master, and the other immortal monarchs of the Five Element sect greeted the Cloud Goddess, who sat indolently in the highest seat. Her eyes scanned them, and Monarch Fiveseal felt a chill crawl up his spine. Ever since the Cloud Goddess displayed her true strength and equaled an immortal sovereign, the immortal monarchs always felt a pressure when facing it.

It was no longer just the separation of a single level, but two. Whatever relationship they had would be eroded by the difference in existence. It was an unconscious recognition that no one could ignore. The stronger you were, the clearer you felt this.

However, the feeling Monarch Fiveseal got from the Cloud Goddess's gaze was different. It felt sharper, almost slaughterous. It was like he could already see the rivers of blood that would flow from the battle between the Anti-Heaven Alliance and the Buzhou Immortal Sect.

“We're just waiting for Drifting Feather Sect now,” the Cloud Goddess said, causing Monarch Fiveseal to break out of his trance.

“It's as your holiness says,” the Five Element Sect Master said.

A few days later, the Drifting Feather Sect also arrived. Once they arrived, the discussion began. Even if the Cloud Goddess had already decided, appearance still had to be kept.

“Are we sure this isn't a scheme to lure us to attack?” The Drifting Feather Sect Master asked. “Jade Cauldron Sect Master, you were closest. What do you think?”

Everyone turned toward the Jade Cauldron Sect Master with slight mockery in their eyes. The subject of everyone's looks glared back, releasing a hint of his aura. Before, he was a first-step immortal monarch, but he had just recently became a second-step immortal monarch, giving him the confidence to retort. “How would I know? The outside world says the Jade Cauldron Sect has a close relationship, but our status was closer to a lackey.”

“So you gleamed nothing in your years of servitude?”

The Jade Cauldron Sect Master glared at the immortal monarch from the Five Element Sect. Just as he was about to scold him, a heavy pressure descended. Sweat formed on his brows and he quickly turned toward the highest seat. Not just him, but the other immortals also turned their attention toward the Cloud Goddess.

“Focus on the main matter.”

“Yes,” the Jade Cauldron Sect Master said, his waist bending even more. He shot one last glare at the immortal monarch before saying, “According to our years of investigation, the number of immortals that went to the Earth Continent is almost eighty percent of all the immortals the Buzhou Immortal Sect has. Or that's what they want us to think. According to our long years of investigation, they should still have around fifty percent of their immortals on the Heaven Continent.”

“It seems that all the years of loyalty was nothing more than an act. To fool the Buzhou Immortal Sect for years, you have my admiration,” the Drifting Feather Sect Master said as he cupped his fist.

The Jade Cauldron Sect Master snorted. “Sovereign Xi won't leave the Heaven Continent with your holiness present. The problem is whether any of the Buzhou Immortal Sect's two immortal emperors have gone to the Earth Continent. The Concealed Emperor never leaves the Buzhou Immortal Sect, so he is surely in the sect.  So it's a question of whether Empress Voidink is still on the Heaven Continent? Although she was injured by your holiness and hasn't appeared for years, she could have already healed and is biding her time.”

The Five Element Sect Master stroked his beard. “There's no point in a surprise attack since the Buzhou Immortal Sect is likely on guard against us. The best-case scenario would be for all the immortals sent to the Earth Continent to perish. However, that's unlikely, but the war on the Earth Continent is not so simple. I say we wait for the fighting to begin and see the composition of the forces sent.”

“What about the Buzhou Immortal Sect's guardian formation?” an immortal monarch asked.

The Jade Cauldron Sect Master looked at the immortal like he was an idiot. “In the entire history of the Heaven Continent, no one has breached the headquarters of the Buzhou Immortal Sect.”

The immortal monarch's face flushed as he felt the disdainful gaze of the others. How did a person without knowing basic history stand in the same room as them?

The Five Element Sect Master shook his head and redirected the conversation. “For now, we should have our spies observe the situation on the Earth Continent and devise a plan.”

All the immortals agreed with his suggestion.
