1835 A Proclamation, War, One Slash At The Heavenly Thirty-Three Layer Formation
âAfter the Immortal Hall is destroyed, you can choose one of the fertile lands in the Immortal World as your new home. You can also have two percent of the spoils from the battle against the Immortal Hall,â Chu Kuangren said.
A great reward would bring forth a brave man.
Chu Kuangren had to give the Heavenly Xing Tribe some sweet incentive to motivate them.
âHaha! I thank you in advance, Immortal King,â Xing Cangfeng said with a laugh.
He was reluctant at first not because he was afraid, but because he was trying to get some incentives from Chu Kuangren.
Now, he had achieved his goal.
âI look forward to fighting side by side with you.â
âSame here.â
After a quick discussion with Xing Cangfeng and the others, Chu Kuangren left Every Goat Mountain and returned to Hundred Academy.
âChief, Iâve come up with a proclamation. What do you think?â Cao Yun came to him and showed him the proclamation.
After a quick glance at it, Chu Kuangren was impressed. He praised, âThis is great!â
The siege on the Immortal Hall was inevitable, and if a public proclamation was released, it would only make the attack more widely known.
A while later, the proclamation that Cao Yun came up with was distributed across the Immortal World. It was also an official call to arms for everyone.
âThe malevolent Immortal Hall has oppressed the human race for long enough. Now, with the Immortal King elected, the Human Emperor will be back in power to suppress the Immortal Hallâs oppression. Peace will be returned to the world.
âThe first crime of the Immortal Hall was brutally oppressing the human race. Second crime was its tyranny and dictatorial. Third was selfishly monopolizing cultivation resources. Fourth was being arrogant and treating peopleâs lives with no respect. Fifth was unlawfully amassing wealthy⦠sixth crime⦠seventh crimeâ¦â
The proclamation stated eighty-eight crimes of the Immortal World, and it incited the humansâ anger.
âThe crimes of the Immortal World are too many to record.â
âYeah! That Great Deitification Tablet is already a terrible act. Who wouldâve thought they have committed that many other crimes? They are unforgivable!â
âDamn it!â
âNow that Chu Kuangren is the Immortal King and also a Human Emperor, with him around, the human race shall rise again!â
âYeah! Iâve decided to answer the call to arms and contribute to the future of the human race.â
Human cultivators from all over the world gathered and started a rebellion, waiting for Chu Kuangrenâs order to launch a siege at the Immortal Hall.
Meanwhile, at Kunlun Immortal Hall, the Eternal Immortal Emperor saw the proclamation, and it infuriated him.
âNonsense! All nonsense! If they want to add more crimes on us, they can always find a somethingâ
âYeah! Eighty-eight crimes? Those people from the academy can really come up with nonsense when they get a brush in their hands. Eighty-eight? If they want to, they can charge us with eight hundred and eighty-eight crimes! They can distort the truth and turn whatâs right into wrong!â
âLook at this! Abducting women? What I did wasnât abducting. It was allowing those women to worship a God! Itâs their honor to be able to serve me!â
âLet them come. Iâd like to see how theyâre going to strike us!â
The Arch Gilded Immortal elites of the Four Divisions and Six Imperial Commanders under the Eternal Immortal Emperor discussed the proclamation.
Everyone was infuriated.
No one had ever challenged the pride of the Immortal Hall for many years.
Now, a proclamation incited the anger in the humans, and with the Hundred Academy fueling the peopleâs anger, the Immortal Hallâs reputation had fallen to a historic low.
They were like rats and insects to the humans now.
âChu Kuangren! Heâs trying to destroy us physically and mentally!â
âYeah! We canât let him succeed!â
The more they read the proclamation, the angrier they got.
The Eternal Immortal Emperor ordered them to get prepared for the incoming attack as well.
Then, an energy presence arrived. A man in black robes and mystical Daoist Laws around him walked over.
Everywhere he went, his domineering aura forced the other cultivators to their knees.
âBlack Cloud Immortal Emperor, youâre here,â the Eternal Immortal Emperor said as he looked at the man.
âThatâs right. Iâm here.â
âWhat are your thoughts on it?â
The Eternal Immortal Emperor tossed the proclamation to the Black Cloud of Immortal Emperor.
However, the Black Cloud Immortal Emperor did not even look at it. He simply raised his hand and unleashed his Immortalâs Core energy.
Bang!
The proclamation disintegrated.
âThereâs nothing to read. If they want a war, weâll give them war. The Immortal Hall has stayed strong for so many years. A piece of proclamation wonât do anything to our status.â
âChu Kuangren is the Immortal King. With the Immortal Kingâs authority, plus the army that the proclamation might gather, the Immortal Hall might face its biggest challenge yet,â the Eternal Immortal Emperor said.
âIf one Immortal Hall is not enough, how about two?â
âDo you want to team up?â
âChu Kuangren has grown too strong. Only when the two Immortal Halls team up can we take him down.â
âI understandâ¦â the Eternal Immortal Emperor nodded.
Time flew by, and a month had passed.
On that auspicious day, a fleet of warships steered out of the Hundred Academy and were heading toward the Immortal Hallâs territory.
Not only the Hundred Academy, but the Human Emperor Sect, the Heavenly Xing Tribe, and Holy Violet Emperor Planet also sent fleets of warships out.
The Immortal World shook.
Chu Kuangren had made his move.
Other than the forces Chu Kuangren gathered, the human cultivators from all over the Immortal World formed a volunteer army as well.
They had never dared to go against the Immortal Hall before that.
Yet now, under Chu Kuangrenâs lead, the volunteer army charged toward the Immortal Hall bravely, enraged but hopeful.
The power of the combined army was so strong that it could shift the worldâs hierarchy of power forever!
Outside Kunlun Immortal Hall, the Heavenly Thirty-Three Layer Formation had been activated. Countless mystical runes formed a barrier around the Immortal Hall, making it a formidable fortress.
Chu Kuangren, however, was not surprised by the formation.
âThe Heavenly Thirty-Three Layer Formation is indeed a strong one, but itâs far from enough from stopping me.â
He pointed his sword hand sign forward, and endless spiritual qi from the realm gathered at the tip of his finger. Then, the Immortal Kingâs authority and his Immortalâs Core energy fused into a massive sword shadow that he slashed forward.
A deafening blast erupted upon collision and tore the void apart.
The fragments of the shattered formation were all over the realm.
The dazzling energy from the formation painted the sky in rainbow colors. It was beautiful to the eyes but contained intense killing intent.
The soldiers of the Immortal Hall behind the formation instantly disintegrated.
The Heavenly Thirty-Three Layer Formation was destroyed!
The Eternal Immortal Emperor was shocked when he saw the scene, and his eyes widened in fear. âSuch a terrifying power! So, is this the power of the Immortal King?â
âOne slash was all it took for him to destroy the Heavenly Thirty-Three Layer Formation? Not even Xing Tian or the Ape Forefather could do it back then.â
âChu Kuangren is much more dangerous than the two of them combined.â
âHe has only destroyed the defensive part of the formation. When he sets foot in the Immortal Hall, he will have to face the true power of the Heavenly Thirty-Three Layer Formation,â Immortal Emperor Wu Ming said.
Beside him were the Embodiers from both Immortal Halls.
Each one of them could lead a strong force on their own, but now, they had gathered just to fight a single person.
Today would be the most important day for the two Immortal Halls!
