Eternal Holy Emperor-Chapter 1318 - 1181: Heavenly Alliance
"The alien race has dispatched troops!"
This is truly shocking news, enough to stun the entire Heavenly and Myriads of Realms. It is so incredibly shocking that even someone like Ye Chen, with an extraordinary mental realm, was utterly stunned and couldn’t recover for a moment.
The alien race is the culprit that led to the massive destruction during the era when the various emperors coexisted, in the glorious Mythical Era. It is undoubtedly the greatest calamity.
Now, after more than half an epoch, they are dispatching troops once again. Is this an invasion of the Ten Thousand Domain Universe?
War King also followed and entered the Treasure Pavilion, and he too showed shock upon hearing the news.
Ye Chen’s expression slightly changed, and he hastily asked, "Has the Tenth Layer Emperor Pass been breached?"
This is his greatest worry. The Tenth Layer Emperor Pass is the main defense line against the alien race invasion, personally established by the Mythical Emperor. It has been the fundamental barrier keeping the alien army out in this epoch.
If the Tenth Layer Emperor Pass is truly breached, the other nine layers will hardly withstand for long, and soon, the entire Heavenly and Myriads of Realms will be overrun by the alien army. The consequences are truly unimaginable, possibly leading to another destructive disaster similar to the Mythical Ruin.
Ye Chen had witnessed in the eyes of the alien supreme beings that nine-tenths of the Ten Thousand Clan do not survive, the Great World collapses, and it becomes enveloped in endless darkness, the splendid Mythical Era dwindling to the extreme.
"Things haven’t escalated to that point yet." The Heavenly Gate Master spoke, allowing Ye Chen and War King to breathe a sigh of relief. However, it was evident that the Heavenly Gate Master’s expression was grave, a rare sight. He is usually unfazed even when facing kings, only showing such gravity in the face of major events.
Furthermore, Jiuxu God King, Emperor Xia, and the other five Ancient Great Powers shared the same seriousness. Although the Tenth Layer Emperor Pass has not been completely overrun, the situation is far from optimistic.
"Please, Sect Leader, tell us the details," Ye Chen said.
The Heavenly Gate Master replied, "Based on accurate information, the alien race has gathered an endless army and is now on the verge of attacking the Emperor Pass. Additionally, there are alien invincible entities at the Ancient Monarch Level appearing, leading the alien army, ready to wage war. When the time comes, the war will affect the entire Ten Thousand Domain Border, causing panic throughout the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms."
The term "Ancient Monarch" is enough to stun the world throughout history. How many have emerged in the past is countable.
They exist in a domain beyond the Ancient Great Powers, such as Taichu King, Emperor Xuhuang, and Lady Jialuo, who are of this level. They are many times stronger than the Ancient Great Powers, and should such entities take action, the Tenth Layer Emperor Pass would face immense threats.
War King couldn’t help but say, "Sect Leader, this shouldn’t be worrisome, as we, the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, still have the Supreme Human Emperor to oversee. Even when facing the Ancient Monarch, he should suppress them."
The Human Emperor is supreme, regarded as nearly equal to the Emperor and King, and capable of suppressing the Ancient Monarch.
"You’re mistaken, the Human Emperor will not act," Jiuxu God King spoke from the other side.
"Why?" War King was shocked, even Ye Chen showed disbelief.
"The Human Emperor, being the Supreme of Ten Thousand Domains, cannot act at this moment," said the Heavenly Gate Master. "His presence is to deter the alien supreme entities. Moreover, the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms contain the Prison of Heaven, holding terrifying beings from ancient times that require his suppression. He cannot leave unless it’s absolutely necessary." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Ye Chen’s expression became grave. If this is the case, the Tenth Layer Emperor Pass is indeed in danger. He asked, "Given this, are there any kings in the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms who can confront them?"
"I don’t know," replied the Heavenly Gate Master.
Ye Chen widened his eyes; they didn’t know? Are there no strong figures at this level to defend the Emperor Pass?
"Ancient Monarchs, entities of this level, are exceedingly rare; they are countable throughout history," remarked Emperor Xia. "They are difficult to find, their whereabouts elusive."
No wonder the Heavenly Gate Master and others looked so grave. There’s a lack of corresponding kings while the adversary possesses invincible entities at this rank, providing the greatest threat.
"Actually, there’s no need to worry excessively because the Tenth Layer Emperor Pass is unique, built by the Mythical Emperor, with not just one leaving the Emperor Seal within, making it impregnable. What is most concerning is if the opponent might have supreme beings of emperor level taking action," Emperor Xia sighed. This is the most worrying factor.
The Heavenly and Myriads of Realms lack emperors, while the alien race hasn’t shown an emperor presence this epoch, yet concerns remain.
Once an alien emperor knocks on the pass, it’s uncertain if the Tenth Layer Emperor Pass can hold.
"This time, the Human Emperor has gathered the Heavenly Great Abilities to initiate the Heavenly Alliance, where all its members must fulfill the promise of the alliance, to withstand the external crisis," said Emperor Xia.
"The Heavenly Alliance?" Ye Chen narrowed his brows. He wasn’t hearing this term for the first time; he’d heard it before in the Ancient Emperor Realm.
The Heavenly Gate Master explained, "The Heavenly Alliance is established for stronger entities of Great Power level and above, it’s a comprehensive Ten Thousand Domain alliance, where all Great Powers within the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms must join. Usually, the alliance is loose and optional, but when great crises strike the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, it is activated, and all within the alliance must abide by it, putting aside differences and uniting to combat external threats."
"Typically, the Alliance Hierarch is the Supreme Human Emperor."
"Now, as the alien army gathers and stands at the gates, there’s a potential crisis akin to the Mythical Era looming, endangering the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms. Therefore, the Human Emperor gathers the Heavenly Great Abilities, urging adherence to the Heavenly Alliance to head to the Ten Layer Emperor Pass at the Ten Thousand Domain Border to jointly combat the crisis, avoiding chaos within the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, saving countless lives."
Ye Chen finally understood the purpose of the Heavenly Alliance.
It’s usually a widespread yet loose entity, optional, but should the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms face crisis, all members, particularly Great Powers, must adhere to it, uniting against the threat.
Now, with the alien army assembled, threatening the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms, the Heavenly Alliance must be activated, prompting the Human Emperor to gather the Heavenly Great Abilities.
"Given this, are you and the Sect Leader heading to the Ten Layer Emperor Pass now?" Ye Chen asked.
"Yes," the Heavenly Gate Master nodded, his gaze profound, deep. "The battle hasn’t erupted yet, everything still in confrontation, and the Supreme Human Emperor provides us time to handle affairs. In half a month, he’ll take action, sending us to the Ten Layer Emperor Pass, avoiding any further delay."
Ye Chen’s expression shifted repeatedly, his fist clenched, saying, "Has it truly come to this point?"
He worried that upon going, the alien crisis would truly erupt, and under such danger, even the Ancient Great Powers might struggle to protect themselves.
"Don’t worry, no need to fret excessively, a great war may not necessarily break out, and the Ten Layer Emperor Pass is impregnable; unless an emperor takes action, none can break through," assured the Heavenly Gate Master.
With hope, Ye Chen sighed lightly but remained somewhat worried.
