Chapter 1239: Emperor, you've been captured too, that's great!

The entire Mountain-Shifting and Sea-Filling Sect arrived at Zhongshan Commandery, looking at the commandery, which was now just a massive crater, and fell silent for a long time.

"This is supposed to be Zhongshan Commandery, right?"

They were indeed responsible for the aftermath, but handling something this difficult was beyond their comprehension.

Man Gu and his bodyguard, Meng Jingzhou, emerged from the Fengdu Dimension. "Apologies, we were just tallying the prisoners, so we're a bit late."

"This must be Sect Master Kong."

"Commander Man."

Although Man Gu was a disciple of the Dao-Seeking Sect, he was meeting Sect Master Kong in his capacity as a commander, making their statuses equal.

"Sect Master Kong, Senior Brother Fang Jin, and all junior brothers and sisters, long time no see." Meng Jingzhou greeted everyone. He had studied at the Mountain-Shifting and Sea-Filling Sect for a period and knew everyone present.

"Junior Brother Meng!" Fang Jin was greatly surprised. How are you always here?

"Is Junior Brother Lu Yang here too?"

"He's not here."

Fang Jin looked at Meng Jingzhou with an increasingly strange expression.

The Senior Sister brought Emperor Zhongtian and two Divine Monarchs back to the Dao-Seeking Sect's Prison Peak.

"This is Prison Peak?" Emperor Zhongtian rubbed his eyes, secretly clicking his tongue in amazement. The entire peak was forged from immortal gold; one could feel its suppressive effect simply by getting close. It was definitely an immortal artifact. It was astonishing that Prison Peak was an immortal artifact made of pure immortal gold, capable of suppressing cultivation. The Dao-Seeking Sect certainly had a grand and extravagant style! But why does the immortal gold of Prison Peak look so familiar, almost like the immortal gold used in my immortal palace?

Currently, the Dao-Seeking Sect's Prison Peak was crafted according to blueprints drawn by Zhu Tian, with immortal fire provided by Ninefold Immortal, and crafted with great effort by Ying Tianxian using refining techniques, specifically using the Great Gan Immortal Palace as raw material. Among immortal artifacts, it was considered top-tier.

The original intention behind building the new Prison Peak was to provide prisoners with ample space for activities. Previously, prisoners were confined to cages. Now, they could regularly come out for fresh air and free movement, which made the new Prison Peak exceptionally lively.

"Void, while it's true you sided with the Great Yu Dynasty, you also personally destroyed it. So, I doubt many there would look kindly upon you."

In a corner of Prison Peak, Divine Monarch Si Chen led several Tribulation Transcenders, attempting to incite Void Supremacy to defect.

"I hear that Dao Lord Wanfa, especially, relying on his seniority, bossed you around, completely unlike treating you as an equal. I felt it was truly unfair to you when I heard it," Divine Monarch Si Chen said, shaking his head.

Stung by the remark, Void Supremacy's expression darkened. "Si Chen, what exactly are you trying to say?!"

"Void, why don't you become an informant for our Great Gan? You wouldn't have to do much, just pass on some of your plans. Once our Great Gan gains control of Prison Peak, we certainly won't treat you poorly."

"Pah! You're dreaming! I could never betray Great Yu!" Void Supremacy spat a mouthful of phlegm onto Divine Monarch Si Chen's face.

Divine Monarch Si Chen still wore a smile. He wiped the spit from his face, then his expression suddenly turned fierce. "You're asking for trouble! Get him!"

The several Tribulation Transcenders he brought with him swarmed forward, knocking Void Supremacy to the ground and punching and kicking him. Just then, Dao Lord Wanfa passed by, saw Void Supremacy being bullied, and couldn't stand for it. He immediately joined the fight, rushing up and tackling Divine Monarch Si Chen. At the same time, Dao Lord Wanfa shouted loudly, "Everyone from Great Yu, come over! Our people are being beaten by Great Gan's!"

"What?! Everyone, let's go! Let's teach these old geezers a good lesson!"

The prisoners from the Great Gan Dynasty also grew enraged upon hearing this. "It's not certain who'll be teaching whom a lesson! Disrespecting seniors? Today, we'll educate you on behalf of your elders!"

The Black and White Venerables of the Great Yu Dynasty sneered repeatedly, "Always flaunting your seniority! Today, we'll show you what it means for latecomers to surpass the old guard!"

The two largest factions in Prison Peak began to fight, while other smaller factions hid in corners, afraid of being caught in the crossfire.

Seeing that a fight had broken out, Si Ming decided to seize the opportunity to let the Great Yu side know who truly controlled Prison Peak. "Si Lei, the eastern flank is weak! Go to the east!"

Guan Shanhai was not to be outdone. If they wanted to fight, then fight; who was afraid? "Wu Youdao, lead three Tribulation Transcenders and several Integration Stage cultivators to circle around and flank them!"

"Wanfa isn't good with leg attacks, Si Chen, target his lower body!"

"Wanfa, lower your center of gravity, don't expose your weaknesses. Si Chen's stamina isn't as good as yours; he'll definitely lose if you prolong the fight!"

Both immortals stood on large rocks, gesturing commandingly, directing the battle, and instructing their side on combat tactics. By the end of their commanding, the two immortals simply erupted into an immortal battle. As the saying goes, "the great Dao is simple." The two immortals' fighting styles returned to their most basic forms: they embraced each other, tearing and rolling on the ground!

Emperor Zhongtian froze at the sight, unsure how to react.

During the fight, Divine Monarch Si Lei kept an eye and ear out, noticing Emperor Zhongtian standing by the entrance. He excitedly waved his hand and shouted, "Emperor!"

Si Ming was exceptionally pleased to see Emperor Zhongtian. "You've been captured too! Excellent! Come quickly and help!"

"Alright!" Although he hadn't figured out the current situation, seeing his good brother getting beaten, he couldn't stand by. Emperor Zhongtian rolled up his sleeves and decisively joined the fight! Divine Monarch Si Heng also entered to help.

With the addition of an immortal and a half-immortal, the morale of the Great Gan faction soared!

Guan Shanhai's expression turned somewhat grim. Damn it, how did everyone from the Great Gan Dynasty get here?!

Divine Monarch Si Lei saw Divine Monarch Si Shi standing at the entrance and loudly called out, "Si Shi, you come too!"

Divine Monarch Si Shi also hadn't expected Prison Peak to be in such chaos.

"...Actually, I came to visit a prisoner."

Guan Shanhai's expression grew even more grim. The Great Gan Dynasty had people outside too!

Lu Yang took a while to wrap up affairs in Zhongshan Commandery, and Immortal Undying felt awkward making Immortal Ying Tian and the others wait. So, she had them go to the Western Heaven Temple first, promising that she and "Little Yangzi" would arrive shortly.

After entering the Buddhist nation's territory, Lu Yang transformed into the Tofu Celestial Venerable. Although the feeling of being at the peak of Tribulation Transcending was good, the immortal body was still more comfortable. Lu Yang briefly mused on this, then immediately set off for the Western Heaven Temple. Previously, he needed Immortal Undying's immortal consciousness to assist in controlling his immortal body. Now, as a formidable Tribulation Transcender, his divine consciousness, while not as powerful as immortal consciousness, could still control the immortal body, albeit with some effort. It was sufficient for normal activities like traveling, but for high-precision control required in combat, he still needed immortal consciousness assistance.

Arriving at the Western Heaven Temple, he greeted Abbot Master Mingyu and went straight to the Great Hero Hall. Standing before the Great Hero Hall, Lu Yang took two deep breaths. The Qilin Immortal and the Time Immortal had already met; the atmosphere inside was bound to be exceptionally tense, so he needed to prepare himself mentally.

Pushing open the hall doors, he heard a fierce argument.

"You're spouting nonsense! Don't you know your own level? You think you can kill me?!"

"Aren't I much stronger than you? What's so hard about killing you?"

"Ridiculous! You stronger than me? I, the esteemed leader of the Four Immortals, you could be stronger than me?!"

"I am the leader of the Four Immortals!"

Lu Yang: "..."

Why is this atmosphere not quite what I imagined?
