Chapter 1310: The Great Battle of the Saints

When Ancient Venerable Jin Luo arrived in Heavens City with over a dozen Saints, news of the "Stone Dragon Secret Realm" was finally released. This announcement immediately caused an immense uproar and excitement within Heavens City. Everyone was deeply shocked and finally understood why the atmosphere in Heavens City had been so tense recently.

During the announcement, the Divine Hall of Return to Ruin also provided a detailed explanation of the situation within the "Stone Dragon Secret Realm."

When the many powerful individuals in Heavens City learned that the secret realm contained a massive stone dragon formed by a vast remnant of the Ancestral Dragon's soul, their first reaction was to wipe their mouths, and then an uncontrollable green glint of greed surged in their eyes.

After two years of traversing the Chaotic Void, they had come to understand just how incredibly rare the remnants of the Ancestral Dragon's soul were. Ordinarily, obtaining even a tiny wisp of it required immense effort and countless resources. Yet now, within this secret realm, the Ancestral Dragon's soul remnants were abundant beyond measure.

If they could spend some time in there, the gains would likely surpass everything they had achieved in the past two years combined!

However, after the initial rush of excitement, many began to feel apprehensive. It was clear from the current situation that the Heavens were attempting to snatch food from a tiger's mouth. One had to remember, the Saint Race was truly formidable. Their ferocity had suppressed the Heavens for countless years. In the past two years, there had been numerous skirmishes between Origin Infant and Dharma Domain experts from the Heavens and the Saint Race in the Chaotic Void, but the vast majority of these encounters had put the Heavens at a disadvantage, showcasing the Saint Race's overwhelming power.

If they were now to contend with the Saint Race for this "Stone Dragon Secret Realm," the intensity of the conflict would be unimaginable.

Regardless of their complex feelings, the current situation was undeniable. Those who had managed to reach Heavens City were considered the elite of the Heavens, and they naturally understood that the Saint Race and the Heavens were truly adversaries with no room for reconciliation. If they did not contend for this Stone Dragon Secret Realm, it would only further tip the balance of power, leading to even more severe consequences in the end.

Therefore, rather than passively awaiting their demise, it was better to fight for their lives!

If a miracle truly occurred and they managed to seize the Stone Dragon Secret Realm, it would not only be a great opportunity for the Heavens but also significantly boost their morale in the fight against the Saint Race.

Soon after this news was released, many powerful beings within Heavens City sensed the tearing of the Chaotic Void. The next moment, surges of immense power suddenly erupted, accompanied by towering phantom figures that seemed to prop up the heavens, reflecting in the void.

These were none other than the Saints who had gathered in Heavens City!

The simultaneous appearance of so many Saints immediately triggered numerous cosmic phenomena. In an instant, even the raging storms in the Chaotic Void were forcibly suppressed. Clearly, before Saints, even perilous natural disasters like chaotic storms could only obediently subside, daring not to cause trouble.

Zhou Yuan stood in the courtyard, looking up. He could see Cang Yuan's figure at the very front of the many Saints.

As for Ancient Venerable Jin Luo, he had not yet appeared.

Under numerous fervent and respectful gazes, Cang Yuan led the Saints into the air. The next moment, with a sweep of his hand, the Chaotic Void before them was immediately torn open. Beyond the spatial passage lay an ordinary-looking space.

Zhou Yuan recognized it at once: this was precisely where the four Saint Race Dharma Domain experts had previously torn open a spatial rift.

Within Heavens City, many observers watched, whispering among themselves, as they had no prior knowledge of this information.

Their confusion, however, did not last long, because the very next moment, the Saints made their move.

In that instant, it seemed as if the very chaos had solidified. Streams of immense power pierced through the void, descending directly onto a specific point in space.

Facing such an utterly terrifying impact, the space there shattered almost instantly. A tiny spatial rift was forcibly pried open, and the originally palm-sized crevice rapidly expanded...

In just a few breaths, the tiny spatial crevice was torn open into a large spatial portal.

Immense power swirled around the portal, stabilizing it.

However, just as the spatial portal was completed, a boundless, surging power suddenly swept forth from within that space, directly agitating the chaos. Like an endless tide, it surged from an unseen location, aiming to utterly crush the portal.

Seeing this, Cang Yuan's eyes flickered. Without him needing to speak, a Saint from the Heavens let out a cold snort. Immediately, a wave of immense power, like heavenly fire, surged forth, capable of incinerating stars, and collided with the surging power from the other side.

Boom! Boom!

The two immense powers clashed, both incomparably dominant. The resulting shockwaves were faintly felt even within Heavens City.

However, neither power could overcome the other, and both ultimately dissipated simultaneously.

As this confrontation subsided, the people of Heavens City were finally able to direct their gazes into the spatial portal. The next moment, when they saw the colossal stone dragon deep within that space, and the numerous Saint Race forces arrayed outside its light barrier, they all involuntarily gasped.

"This secret realm belongs to our Saint Race! How dare you, the Lower Five Heavens, covet it?!"

Just as many gazes in Heavens City were filled with shock, from the direction of the Saint Race army within the secret realm, mighty phantom figures suddenly appeared, spanning across the heavens and earth. Their cold, ruthless gazes directly pierced through the spatial portal, locking onto Heavens City.

Simultaneously, a voice brimming with murderous intent echoed above Heavens City, filling countless hearts with dread.

"Begone at once! Otherwise, we shall surely exterminate you all!"

Facing the Saint Race Saint's sharp rebuke, Cang Yuan merely smiled faintly. Far from retreating, he led the Saints forward a step, reappearing through the spatial portal and into the secret realm space.

"This secret realm clearly originated from the Ancestral Dragon's legacy, and the Ancestral Dragon has no connection whatsoever to your Saint Race. How can you claim it belongs to you?" Cang Yuan sneered.

Behind him, over a dozen Saints from the Heavens stood with grim expressions. Their mere presence created a sense that the universe itself was turning upside down and the heavens and earth were collapsing.

The boundless power they exuded not only struck fear into the Origin Infant and Dharma Domain experts in Heavens City but also made those below the Saint level in the Saint Race army appear solemn. After all, no matter how powerful the Saint Race was, Saints were ultimately the pinnacle existences in this world and could not be easily insulted.

And only Saints could contend with Saints.

"Heh, so that's why you in the Heavens dared to try and seize something belonging to my Saint Race – you harbored thoughts of a desperate struggle? How unfortunate. Even if we were to throw away what belongs to my Saint Race to feed the dogs, it still wouldn't be for you, the lowly beings of the Lower Five Heavens, to lay your hands on."

At this moment, a towering figure appeared above the Saint Race army. It was an old man in a purple robe, his face a dark purplish hue, and his eyes glowed with a circulating purple light. He gazed indifferently at Cang Yuan, who led the Heavens' side, and said, "Cang Yuan, if you know what's good for you, take your people and quickly get out of this secret realm. I can then pretend this incident never happened."

"So, it's the old ghost, Ziguang."

Cang Yuan recognized the purple-robed elder. "No need for such nonsense," he said. "Since the Heavens discovered this secret realm, we naturally intend to take our share."

The Saint Race Saint named Ziguang heard this and smiled faintly, shaking his head. "It seems that over these countless millennia, our Saint Race has been too kind to you, the Lower Five Heavens, leading you to the misconception that our Saint Race is soft and easily bullied?"

As he spoke, the void behind him rippled. The next moment, fervent cheers erupted from the Saint Race army as numerous towering figures appeared behind Ziguang, bringing with them boundless might.

These were clearly the Saints of the Saint Race.

Their numbers were no less than those from the Heavens.

Within Heavens City, many Origin Infant and Dharma Domain experts watched this scene with tense expressions. This was likely the first time they had witnessed so many Saints appear simultaneously, and the thought of such high-level beings engaging in a free-for-all made their scalps tingle.

This was truly a world-destroying confrontation.

Ziguang stood with his hands behind his back, his purple eyes gazing indifferently at Cang Yuan, a chilling murderous intent swirling deep within his pupils.

"Cang Yuan, I'll ask one last time: Are you leaving or not?"

This time, however, Cang Yuan offered no reply. The very next moment, the Saints of the Heavens, led by Cang Yuan, directly made their move.
