Star Gate

At the same time.

The firmament cracked open over the region of chaos. A piece of turtle scale shimmered and trembled in Yu Hai's pocket. The man raised an eyebrow. Was Battle Heaven about to enter the battlefield?

He sensed it a moment later—a very faint ripple traveling from far away. It was the ripples of a massive ancient city traveling through the world. Only a powerhouse of his level could sense it from so far away.

Battle Heaven was indeed about to join the battlefield!

The replicas behind him shifted with excitement and Wu Peng even called out, "Hold on, senior..."

That seemed to be a signal!

Yu Hai flared with an extremely strong presence and howled with determination. He blasted out with a punch and slammed it down to the ground. A Saint level desolate beast flew backward as a powerful surge of strength swept through the land!

Rumble!

The enormous power undulated in all directions and Yu Hai shouted, "Be careful, I can't keep them under control..."

BOOM!

The old turtle's replica was blown apart. The surge of strength continued, unabated. Although the others hastily backed away, they were still caught in the aftermath. Only Wu Peng survived because he was wearing armor.

Delight flashed through Yu Hai's eyes and he immediately erupted with even greater power. The other four desolate beasts had been able to keep him corralled, but his next punch sent the horse desolate beast flying with blood spraying everywhere!

How was this possible??

The desolate beasts briefly milled around with panic.

Yu Hai's eyes glinted coolly and he turned back for a look. He knew that he'd succeeded when Wu Peng nodded to him.

"Battle Heaven is almost here!" he chuckled softly. A weapon appeared in his hand, one that spoke of unparalleled violence. It glimmered with bloody light—a blade. It flew toward one of the desolate beasts in the blink of an eye!

He wanted to dispose of some of the desolate beasts before Battle Heaven arrived. Only then would he have the time and effort to spare for those guys in the ancient city.

The heavens are on my side!

There seemed to be some more desolate beasts on the other side, but their presences were scattered. The skies were obscured there—that was probably where Battle Heaven would appear first. This was an enormous opportunity for him!

"DIE!" Yu Hai roared and broke the firmament with his blade.

"Empyrean King..." gasped the desolate beasts.

BAM!

As the blade descended, it cut straight through a cow desolate beast that moved a little slower. The cow was outright sliced into two and the strange blade began devouring its target's broken body.

"Be careful... this person is an Empyrean King!" exclaimed the frantic desolate beasts. Yu Hai didn't give them a chance to transmit messages. He sneered coolly and brought down killing intent over the premises. It was too late for communication!

The highly uneasy desolate beasts wanted to withdraw the chaos presence from the area. However, a white horse dashed through their field of vision. Princess Jun charged into the distance on the back of her white horse. This threw the desolate beasts into a panic—damn it!

They wanted to bring the chaos with them in retreat, but it continued to spread! How could the will of chaos run so far ahead? Everywhere the white horse went was the chaos. They were hard pressed to withdraw even though they wanted to.

"Stop!" bellowed the horse desolate spirit. It glared at the galloping Princess Jun in the distance.You idiot! What are you charging so far ahead for?!

Meanwhile, Princess Jun steered the white horse forward and didn't look back! These were orders from her royal father, that she only needed to charge forward and ignore everyone who tried to stop her.

However, a strange reaction greeted her actions. She encountered multiple Silver Moon powerhouses along the way; all of them turned a blind eye to her. They permitted her to run through the battlefield as she would, hurtling forward without pause!

A large sum of elites followed behind her and were just as committed to the charge. No one stopped them either.

What's happened to Skystar? And what's happened to my royal father? What is the significance of my charge?

......

While Gan Wuliang faced his opponents with abject horror, Li Hao smiled at what he saw in the distance. Yu Hai ultimately couldn't withstand temptation.

The young man immediately jumped out of the fray and killed a Black Armor with one stroke. These people had been on guard against the four directions and felt much safer after sensing the disturbance behind them.Here it comes!

I knew it, how can Li Hao be facing us alone? But... the one behind us also seems to be a powerhouse of the new martial dao? One that also uses the sword?

So there was another heavyweight of the new dao on par with being a Saint apart from Li Hao? That was a stunning discovery!

Gan Wuliang beamed brightly and yelled, "All of you can await death. Battle Heaven has arrived!"

The ground trembled, as if an ancient city was ready to barge into the area.

The leopard desolate beast sneered at this time and commanded the chaos to retreat from its edges. It looked on frostily. Were these people idiots?Battle Heaven has to enter the chaos if it wishes to join the battlefield. How are you going to do that when I dismiss the chaos?

As one of the revered ones, it was authorized to do that. There was no will of chaos here. Soon enough, even Gan Wuliang was thrown out of the range of chaos.

The leopard's intentions were simple—kill the guy ambushing them from behind, disseminate more chaos, and kill as many Saints as they could... None of these guys would be getting away!

"The Revered Leopard is brave and mighty!" One of the Black Armors laughed uproariously. The chaos was within their grasp, rendering all ambushes a joke. Li Hao's mind worked too simply.

But in this moment, the real Li Hao struck not to ambush his enemies, but to break through the world with a fissure. A passageway appeared.

The young man couldn't be bothered to converse with Red Dust's Saints.Everyone knows that you control the chaos, how would I not know? Only a fool would entertain the thoughts running through your mind!

Several figures materialized in the passage—the old turtle and other Saints. They appeared nearly as quickly as the passage did and said nothing. The old turtle, Li Hao, Li Daozong, Capsize Sea, and General Pagoda acted at the same time. Five Saints rushed the leopard desolate beast!

This desolate beast could control the chaos, so they would kill it first before attempting anything else.

Five Saints!

The desolate beasts had thought their enemies would be inside the ancient city, but here the Battle Heaven heavyweights suddenly were. The leopard was a certain distance away from the remaining three Red Dust Saints—its eyes widened with horror!

How could this be?? What were they doing here?! The desolate beasts had isolated the ancient city! It wasn't possible for these people to be here!

There was no more time to spend on contemplating this impossible occurrence. A massive collision rang through the world!

BOOM!

A gigantic leopard was ripped to pieces! The three Black Armors only had time to gasp with dismay before a detonation blew through them.

An explosion ripped through the clouds!

Li Hao had cut down everything the desolate beast could bring to bear with one sword stroke. The other Saints erupted with all of their abilities and sealed off the area, but the leopard didn't even have time to scream before it was killed on the spot!

"What are you guys doing here?" demanded the three Saints. This was impossible! What had been those ancient city ripples then?!

This person also seemed to be Li Hao, so who was it that they'd been facing earlier? Also, who was fighting the five desolate beasts on the other side?

Where did so many powerhouses come from??

Unending doubt, confusion, and questions surged into their heart. Killing intent glinted out of Li Hao's eyes.

"Kill!"

BAM!

Everyone struck at the same time—eight Saints clashed in combat. The world threatened to split asunder! Off in the distance, Gan Wuliang made a quick getaway. The aftershocks of eight battling Saints will obliterate a mid Sun and Moon like him.

Grisly combat broke out on the battlefield. If the dead leopard desolate beast was included, there were fourteen Saints and one Empyrean King clashing against each other. Blood qi from one million soldiers blasted through the battlefield. Chaos presence wafted everywhere, draping the land with a murky gloom.

Shouts and cries echoed among the clouds!

Li Hao was starting to reap the fruits of his many days of planning.

......

Red Dust's expression shifted slightly from his position in Galewind. The sky canopy in front of him shattered, but he'd managed to glimpse certain things at the last possible second. He snorted.

"I see... so Li Hao... has consolidated his hold over the dao universe..." He'd known before that the young man could enter the dao universe, but now he learned that Li Hao could hide people inside it! So this was the case!

Did that mean that the Battle Heaven that had just arrived was devoid of powerhouses?

As for the heavyweight battling the five desolate beasts... Red Dust had some speculation as to who he was. He'd only nursed some guesses before and was uncertain. But now, he was very certain.

"The victor has not been determined!" An arctic look hung on Red Dust's face as Galewind swiftly disappeared, speeding toward Barren. Perhaps he would be in time to participate in the battle. Li Hao's triumph for the moment would not be the final victory!

The ancient city shuddered beneath his feet, jolted by a loud impact!

Red Dust's eyes widened and he lifted his head, finding a book had overshadowed all of Galewind.

"Zhang An!" Red Dust narrowed his eyes. "How dare you come!"
