As he spoke, without waiting for them to react, Lin Yi extracted the Dao positions [Dragon Tiger Transformation] and [Taixu Attraction] from Jiang Miaoxuan and Immortal Emperor Qiming.

They did not resist, allowing Lin Yi to extract them. In his hand, the [Red Dust Qi] and [Universe Stabilization] from the Sword naturally drifted out.

The four Dao positions circled around Lin Yi, merging into his body one by one.

Consequently, lines of Dao patterns appeared on his forehead, intertwining to form a strange character.

Compared to the Dao patterns of Jiang Miaoxuan and the others, it was more than twice as complex.

The effect of Lin Yi's [Yin-Yang Union] was actually very simple—ten thousand things become one, and one becomes ten thousand.

The former is similar to the current moment; just as the Creation Realm can accommodate various Daos for the Fairies to harmonize, [Yin-Yang Union] can also take himself as the center, connecting numerous Dao positions, merging them into one, and exponentially strengthening their original effects.

The latter is similar to the Path of Taiyin and Taiyang, capable of helping the Fairies attain the Dao.

His Dao position was simply an enhanced version of his past abilities at the Dao Master level; it was very pure, but also very powerful.

Lin Yi reached out and grasped, activating the enhanced version of [Universe Stabilization], and the five Half-step Dao Synthesis experts and countless great Cultivators were forcibly seized and appeared before him.

Then, with the support of [Taixu Attraction], he moved his mind, and the entire Void Realm began to stir.

The so-called Dragon Tiger Transformation is actually the harmony of Yin and Yang, the fusion of Heaven and Earth, capable of controlling the two energies of Yin and Yang, transforming all things, and reopening the Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind.

Compared to Yu Jingsheng, the focus of the Dragon Tiger Transformation lies in using Yin and Yang to manifest the four elements.

Yu Jingsheng focuses on "one word moves and all things are born," similar to "law follows the word" and creating something from nothing. Yujing is the Emperor's abode, the place where the Dao resides; being on the Yujing Platform, all laws return to the heart.

Before Lin Yi, as he activated [Dragon Tiger Transformation], the clear Qi rose, the turbid Qi sank, and the four elements of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind all appeared.

His gaze fell, and thus the clear and turbid merged into one, the four elements intertwined, and [Red Dust Qi] swirled about.

Those great Cultivators could not even speak a word before their Dao and principles were stripped away, dissolving into the four elements. Even those five Half-step Dao Synthesis experts could only struggle to hold on, opening their mouths to beg for mercy.

Lin Yi ignored them all; with a slight movement of [Yin-Yang Union], even the Half-step Dao Synthesis experts were dissolved.

Except…

Lin Yi reached out and grabbed; the Goddess of Life, who was full of compassion and had decided to give up right there, was pulled to his side.

She was the toughest among the five Half-step Dao Synthesis experts; even when she was about to die, she refused to say a single word of begging for mercy.

"You…"

Goddess of Life saw that she had escaped the danger and was slightly stunned.

Lin Yi did not pay attention to Goddess of Life either. He reached out again and extracted the Dao position from her Life soul. However, if he wanted this Dao position, Goddess of Life herself had to be willing to let it go.

Lin Yi played with the incomplete Dao position in his hand.

"I originally didn't intend to let you go, but I thought that since I've already taken all your Saintesses, it would make me look like a bad guy, so I'll spare your Life."

Goddess of Life pursed her lips and lowered her head. She felt inexplicably humiliated, but at the same time, she felt fortunate to still be alive; living was, after all, what all living beings craved.

"Since you look decent enough, just be my maid for now."

Goddess of Life did not speak; she did not agree, but she also did not refuse. However, Lin Yi already understood her choice.

He flicked his finger, and the incomplete Dao position in his hand merged into his Creation Realm. The Dao patterns on his forehead became a bit more complex.

This Dao position of Goddess of Life was called [Polytheism], and since Lin Yi had forcibly seized her Dao position, he naturally, as her husband, occupied the central position of the pantheon, sharing everything she had as a God King.

Chapter 465: Declaration of War by Ten Thousand Sects against Jiuzhou.

Yueming Domain, Human Realm.

Deep within the Xianyun Sect, there was a hidden altar that had been guarded by a Grand Elder for thousands of years.

Today, the Elder guarding the altar walked out of the Ancient Tower where the altar was located, holding an ancient bell in his hands.

The bell chimed, its sound shaking the Forbidden Land. Countless ancient Cultivators who had sealed their cultivation, waiting only for the decree of the Immortal King, slowly awakened from their slumber.

They had all voluntarily remained in the Human Realm solely for the sake of the Immortal King's decree, waiting for this moment for countless years.

Although those Immortal Kings and Demon Sovereigns would not interfere much in the Human Realm under the orders of the Time Holy Court, they were not fools and had still left behind many means in the Human Realm.

For example, these ancient Cultivators.

After Tai Yi sensed abnormalities in the Human Realm and sent an Immortal King to the Human Realm, they were also awakened.

Ten thousand years ago, they were also members of the Immortal Realm Cultivators, having witnessed that vast era and fought in all directions alongside the Immortal King.

Previously, even when the Creation Realm descended and Dao Harmonizers appeared in the Human Realm, they remained asleep.

But now, at the call of the Immortal King, they all awakened.

"What year is it now?"

Someone among the ancient Cultivators asked.

The Grand Elder stepped forward, holding the ancient bell, and replied, "Immortal King Calendar Year 10056."

"Ten thousand years have already passed…"

An ancient Cultivator sighed in a hoarse voice.

"The Immortal King has decreed: cause chaos in the Human Realm."

The Grand Elder ignored this, simply raising the ancient bell and scanning the ancient Cultivators before him.

Every one of these ancient Cultivators was at least a Void Return expert, and there were many at the peak of Void Return.

He spoke aloud, his voice spreading throughout the Forbidden Land. Just at this moment, Immortal White Crane, bringing along the disheartened Old Ancestors, descended upon the call of this Grand Elder.

"The Immortal King has decreed to cause chaos in the Human Realm?"

Immortal White Crane was somewhat bewildered.

He knew about the altar and the great terror within the Forbidden Land. In fact, over these thousand years, he had communicated with those high and mighty Immortal Kings more than once.

But… the Immortal King ordered them to cause chaos in the Human Realm? Was this really not a verbal decree issued by those Demon Sovereigns? Or was this a joint decree from the Immortal King and the Demon Sovereigns?

He knew that the relationship between the Immortal Kings of the Immortal Realm and the Demon Sovereigns of the Netherworld was not that hostile; in fact, to some extent, they were very close.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept the runaway Beiming Xiaowan in the Xianyun Sect.

Did they really think he knew nothing? Allowing a Six Paths Sect Saintess to go undercover in his own Sect and even become a Grand Elder with power second only to him?

Did they really think it was like those mortal storybooks—three hundred years and another three hundred years, and I've become a Grand Elder.

Wasn't this treating him, a Half-step Dao Synthesis Void Return expert, like a fool?

In the Immortal Realm, his cultivation might not be much, but this is the Human Realm; when you see me, you must address me as Immortal White Crane!

Even though Beiming Xiaowan was somewhat reckless in her daily Life, Immortal White Crane did not mind, instead taking the initiative to help her smooth over the messes she created.

This wasn't because he was kind-hearted, but because he considered that Demon Sovereign, which was why he did so.

Of course, she couldn't know about these things, and she couldn't know about the things in the Forbidden Land either.

Fortunately, she usually just stayed on her own peak like a shut-in and didn't go out, so these things were finally not discovered by her.

Otherwise, a Saintess taught by a Demon Sovereign, whose cultivation was not much inferior to his, he really wouldn't have much confidence in keeping these things hidden from her.

"White Crane."

The Grand Elder turned his head back, the ancient bell in his hand shaking slightly, and a message naturally spread to all the Cultivators present.

Immortal White Crane fell silent. He was usually cheerful, like an old deity of longevity, but at this moment, his expression turned gloomy.

He understood what this decree represented; it was a catastrophe for the Human Realm!

This is the Human Realm… the place where he had lived since childhood. Even though his parents had long passed away, he did not want this place to become a thing of the past…

But he had no choice; this was the Immortal King's decree.

Wait, this is…

Immortal White Crane seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up. The Grand Elder and several Old Ancestors also cast their gazes elsewhere, and even those taciturn ancient Cultivators were somewhat surprised.

A massive Aura rose from the direction of the Jiuzhou Imperial Capital. A familiar Aura swept across the entire Human Realm, and unabashed hostility spread like dark clouds.

"This is…"

Immortal White Crane recalled the scene when the Barbarian Tribe was destroyed: a great formation covered the Barbarian territory, and in the end, only a Heavenly Abyss remained there.

Why did the Jiuzhou Imperial Family suddenly unfurl the formation map at this very moment? Was it for the Immortal King's decree?

No, the Immortal King's decree conflicted with their stance. They could not possibly cause chaos in the Human Realm because of the Immortal King's decree; after all, in a sense… they were the Human Realm.

So…

In Immortal White Crane's pupils, a beam of light was reflected, descending towards the Xianyun Sect. He had no time to think, and his Half-step Dao Synthesis cultivation was displayed to the fullest in this instant.

He waved his hand, and the Sect-protecting formation unfolded.

The beam of light fell upon the Sect-protecting formation. Without needing the Sect Disciples to take action, he injected his own cultivation, causing only slight ripples on the shield, and swallowed the attack.

The Jiuzhou Imperial Family also had the Immortal King's decree… Immortal White Crane shook his head slightly. So, was the purpose of the Immortal King's decree to destroy the Jiuzhou Imperial Family? But then why notify the Jiuzhou Imperial Family?

Of course, this was not important. What was important was that the Jiuzhou Imperial Family would definitely be destroyed in this catastrophe; they could not resist the Immortal King, and they could not abandon their own people.

After all, that new Empress was an Emperor who loved her people like her own children… If it were the one from hundreds of years ago, the previous Emperor, to save himself, he might have chosen to destroy the Human Realm, right?

Empress, do you like humans that much?

"Xiaoyao Sect declares war on the Jiuzhou Imperial Family!"

An aged declaration sounded. Immortal White Crane recognized it; it was that old thing from the Xiaoyao Sect.

The formation map unfurled above the Imperial Capital did not just fire one light cannon at the Xianyun Sect; the other four great immortal Sects were all attacked once.

Even some Sects that did not submit to Jiuzhou's rule, and some factions that were in the records but had not been leveled by the Six Paths Sect, were also hit once.

It seemed as if a hornet's nest had been poked; following this declaration, one declaration after another rang out one after another.

"Longfeng Pavilion declares war on the Jiuzhou Imperial Family!"

"Sword Pavilion declares war on the Jiuzhou Imperial Family!"

"Wan Yao Mountain declares war on the Jiuzhou Imperial Family!"

"Moyun Sect declares war on the Jiuzhou Imperial Family!"

"Liuli River declares war on the Jiuzhou Imperial Family!"

"…"

…

Sitting on the main seat of the Imperial Chariot, Xuanyuan Mingzhu looked at the dozens of screens unfurled before her.

In each screen, a Sect or immortal clan's base was reflected, and above the base, a declaration shaking the universe was echoing.

"Xianyun Sect declares war on the Jiuzhou Imperial Family!"

Another declaration of war rang out. Xuanyuan Mingzhu was not surprised; she had also received the so-called Immortal King's decree here. After all, the Jiuzhou Imperial Family was also the black glove for those guys.

Her husband had just left the Human Realm, and this decree had fallen.

It seemed those Immortal Kings and Demon Sovereigns were not stupid—although they didn't know where her husband came from, his intention to protect the Human Realm was very obvious. Did they want the Human Realm to be in chaos to distract her husband?

Xuanyuan Mingzhu rested her chin on her hand, somewhat absent-mindedly maneuvering the Imperial Chariot, tearing through space, and heading towards the Xiaoyao Sect. You were the first to declare war just now, right?

With her here, would the Human Realm really fall into chaos? What a joke!!

"Sister Yun, the north is left to you."

Xuanyuan Mingzhu contacted Sect Leader Yun Yishuang, who was still in the Xuanji Pavilion in the Northern Territory, via Yin characters.

…

Sect Leader Yun Yishuang's gaze swept over the majestic Sword formation before her. She replied, putting Xuanyuan Mingzhu, who was coordinating everything, at ease.

Although Xuanji Pavilion was not considered a top-tier Sect in the entire Human Realm, it could still be considered first-class.

And in the Northern Territory, having managed it for hundreds of years, relying on various means, she could long ago be called the King of the Northern Territory!

"Rest assured regarding Wan Yao Mountain."

Sect Leader Yun Yishuang spoke softly, as if she were speaking to herself. Immediately after, she looked at Yun Wanshang and Ji Xueqi beside her, "How is it?"

"It is almost ready."

Yun Wanshang cupped her hands, maintaining the proper etiquette of a Disciple while outside.

"Master, we can set out now."

Ji Xueqi also responded in a cold, clear voice.
