The Garlok Mountain Range stretches for trillions of miles, serving as the ancestral land of the Garlok tribe. Deep within the mountain range, a vast, colossal city is visible. Above its gate, a large plaque bears the characters "Garlok City."
In a hidden underground cave, an eight-colored Chaos Beast resembling a mouse and a seven-colored Chaos Beast resembling a sparrow were conversing. Both were Taiyi Golden Immortals.
The Garlok tribe's experts had all been deployed. If not for the need to guard against the Azure Lotus Wang Family, all of the Garlok tribe's Taiyi Golden Immortals would have joined the war.
The Chahar tribe had gone all out this time. The last time a war of this scale erupted was tens of millions of years ago, when the Chahar tribe had a slight edge. However, their subordinate tribes suffered terribly, sustaining heavy losses from which they had yet to recover.
"The battle is fierce, and no victor has emerged yet," the seven-colored Chaos Beast said with a tone of relief. "The Immortal realm's high-grade Immortal Exterminating Cannons and high-grade Immortal Exterminating Arrows possess considerable destructive power. I fear the cost will be immense. Fortunately, we are safe here in Garlok City."
"Not necessarily," the eight-colored Chaos Beast said with a tone full of worry. "Don't forget the Wang Family. They are full of talented individuals. Immortal Lord Taihao is skilled in artifact forging; he can even craft high-grade Chaos Armor and high-grade Immortal Exterminating Arrows."
It wouldn't be worried if it were any other force. The Azure Lotus Wang Family was no ordinary power; even the Hada tribe had been annihilated by them.
"The Wang Family's main force is in Hada City," the seven-colored Chaos Beast said. "So they shouldn't have excess manpower to bother us. As long as the Azure Lotus Immortal Couple doesn't intervene, we still have a chance to escape."
"Let's hope so!" the eight-colored Chaos Beast sighed. "Being neighbors with the Wang Family truly keeps one on edge."
Just then, a loud alarm sounded, echoing throughout Garlok City.
"No, it can't be! The Wang Family is attacking?" exclaimed the eight-colored Chaos Beast.
They rushed out of the underground cave and were astonished to find a colossal man in silver robes standing above Garlok City. In his hand was a three-pointed, two-edged halberd wreathed in lightning. Countless silver electric arcs covered the silver-robed man's body, making him appear like a god of thunder.
"A Taiyi Golden Immortal at Grand Completion! A giant?" exclaimed the eight-colored Chaos Beast.
According to the intelligence they possessed, the Azure Lotus Immortal Couple were only at the mid-Taiyi Golden Immortal stage and didn't possess the Law of Thunder. The opponent's immense size strongly resembled that of the Giant race.
The man in silver robes was Wang Mengbin. He had altered his appearance and consumed a third-tier immortal elixir to make his aura appear to be at the Grand Completion Taiyi Golden Immortal level. In reality, he was still at the mid-Taiyi Golden Immortal stage. He had cast the Dao art "Size as Desired," which allowed him to grow so large. This wasn't merely an increase in size; his strength had also significantly improved.
Wang Mengbin swung his halberd towards Garlok City. The three-pointed, two-edged halberd left a white streak in the void, tearing the very fabric of space. The world seemed to turn silver-white.
A yellowish-brown light screen then emerged, enveloping the entire Garlok City. The three-pointed, two-edged halberd struck the yellowish-brown light screen. The light screen dented inwards, its spiritual light dimming. The tribe's protective formation, set up with the help of Pseudo-Immortals at the Taiyi Golden Immortal stage, had very strong defenses.
"Quickly send a message to the Chahar tribe," the eight-colored Chaos Beast commanded. "Tell them we are under attack!" There were some Pseudo-Immortals within the city responsible for managing the large communication array and contacting the Chahar tribe.
With an earth-shattering roar, the previously clear sky suddenly became covered in dense black clouds, and strong winds whipped up. Three enormous vortexes appeared, materializing above Garlok City. Each vortex was a hundred zhang in diameter, with countless electric arcs visible within them. This was the Dao Art: Nine Thunders Striking the Peak!
The three vortexes slowly rotated, and three colossal bolts of lightning shot out, heading directly for the yellowish light screen. The three bolts of lightning, each of a different color, struck the yellowish light screen in succession. The light screen shattered instantly, as if made of paper. An ordinary third-tier immortal formation simply couldn't withstand a Dao art. Between Size as Desired and Nine Thunders Striking the Peak, the latter was more effective in unleashing Wang Mengbin's true power.
The three colossal bolts of lightning struck the two Taiyi Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts in succession, engulfing their forms. When the lightning dissipated, the two Taiyi Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts had vanished, as if evaporated into thin air. Two massive, smoke-emitting craters now marked their former positions in the city. The Taiyi Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts, mutated twice, simply couldn't withstand Nine Thunders Striking the Peak; they were instantly annihilated.
The Chaos Beasts and Pseudo-Immortals within the city immediately fell into chaos. A series of shrill, ghostly wails erupted, as if countless spirits were weeping in unison. With no Taiyi Golden Immortals left in the city, the remaining Chaos Beasts and Pseudo-Immortals collapsed to the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices.
Five ferocious ghostly figures burst from beneath the ground and flew into the city. They entered the bodies of the Chaos Beasts, one by one, devouring their vital essence to strengthen themselves. From high above, an immense silver lightning bolt struck, hitting a magnificent, gilded palace. The palace was instantly reduced to dust, and the large teleportation array was also destroyed.
The dark clouds dispersed, and the sky cleared. However, the thunder continued to rumble, as thick silver lightning bolts sliced through the sky, striking the Chaos Beasts within the city. After Wang Mengbin instantly killed the two Taiyi Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts with Nine Thunders Striking the Peak, the remaining Chaos Beasts simply couldn't withstand him. Wang Mengbin could easily eliminate the Pseudo-Immortals and Chaos Beasts in the city, leaving no survivors, by wielding the Law of Thunder. As for the Chaos Beast tribes outside Garlok City, they had already been annihilated by the Five Ghosts raised by Ye Haitang, with no survivors there either.
The Chahar tribe had deployed a large number of Chaos Beasts elsewhere, leaving behind only the old, weak, and infirm in their ancestral land. Having dealt with the Chaos Beasts and Pseudo-Immortals in the city, Wang Mengbin deactivated his Dao art, his body returning to its original size. He then flew into Garlok City to collect its treasures.
In Jinchen City, the eastern city wall had collapsed. Numerous buildings were destroyed, and many corpses lay on the ground. Three Taiyi Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts had attacked Jinchen City. Only one Taiyi Golden Immortal was left to guard Jinchen City, who couldn't defend against them and couldn't even escape. The three Taiyi Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts quickly broke through the city's defensive formation, captured the Jinchen tribe's Taiyi Golden Immortal, intending to take him back for sacrifice to the Ten Directions Mother-Child Pagoda. They disdained cultivators below the Taiyi Golden Immortal stage, slaughtering them all to eliminate as much of the Immortal realm's living force as possible.
Two streaks of light appeared on the distant horizon. With a flash, they halted above Jinchen City. As the light receded, the figures of Nangong Yunyao and Nangong Yunyue were revealed. Their divine senses spread wide, and their brows furrowed.
"There are no survivors," Nangong Yunyao said with a frown. "Their reaction speed is swift; they strike and immediately retreat." Several ground cities had been attacked by Taiyi Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts, suffering heavy losses. There was nothing to be done, as the elite forces were all fighting on the front lines, leaving the Immortals guarding the rear somewhat weaker.
"We arrived too late; they've already escaped," Nangong Yunyue said. "We should report this to Ancestor Yuwei. Send people to clean up the aftermath. Hopefully, the other ground cities can hold out and avoid suffering the same fate as Jinchen City."
She took out her Immortal Transmission Mirror to contact Nangong Yuwei and reported the situation to her.
"I understand," Nangong Yuwei instructed. "I will immediately dispatch people to Jinchen City to clean up the aftermath. Be careful. With your current strength, you are no match for Taiyi Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts."
"Understood, Ancestor Yuwei," Nangong Yunyue replied. She agreed, put away her Immortal Transmission Mirror, and left with Nangong Yunyao.
