Chapter 584: Peak Great Venerable Invincible

Heaven and earth were vast and boundless.

At the rear of the Purple Dream Domain battlefield, two figures stood in the Void Realm, overlooking the battlefield in the distance.

The figure slightly further back was King Lingwei. As an enfeoffed prince of the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom imperial family, King Lingwei had laid out his plans and actively initiated this war that affected dozens of surrounding domains.

From the beginning of the war until now, the Purple Dream Domain had held the advantage on the main battlefields of both domains, while the Azure Ember Domain primarily focused on defense and resistance.

"I have basically figured out the methods of Crimson Pine King. For this war, I still need you, younger brother, to step in and settle the Universe."

King Lingwei glanced at the figure to his front-left.

It was his younger brother, Spirit God King, a core member of the imperial family of the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom.

Among the many Ancient Countries in the Origin World, those whose ancestor Bloodline concentration reached the level of the core imperial family were exceptionally rare, far fewer than the number of Celestial Venerables.

A core imperial family member, as long as they stepped into the realm of the Great Venerable and adapted for a short period, could easily sweep across their peers.

The powerful Bloodline Power of the ancestor allowed every core imperial family member to possess monstrous combat strength.

If they could push their Bloodline Power to the limit, a core imperial family member at the Great Venerable realm could challenge a Celestial Venerable.

Of course, even for a core imperial family member, reaching the extreme limit of Bloodline Power was not an easy task.

However, it was still much simpler than a Great Venerable breaking through to become a Celestial Venerable.

"In all things in the world, Cultivate is the fundamental basis." Spirit God King glanced sideways at King Lingwei. "Is the imperial throne really that important to you, older brother?"

"It is very important," King Lingwei said candidly.

Becoming the emperor of an Ancient Kingdom had many benefits, which included purifying the imperial Bloodline within his body.

For core imperial family members, the Bloodline concentration was nearly overflowing and could no longer be increased, but for ordinary imperial family members, the temptation to purify their Bloodline concentration was still very great.

Of course, for King Lingwei, purifying his own Bloodline concentration was not his only purpose in becoming the emperor of an Ancient Kingdom; what he valued more was wielding the power and authority of an emperor.

"I do not have your talent, younger brother. Becoming the emperor is my only hope."

King Lingwei sighed.

At the same time, he felt somewhat helpless.

Although Spirit God King and he were brothers, the two of them were not very close. This time, in order to invite Spirit God King to make a move, King Lingwei had also expended a great deal of effort and paid a heavy price.

"Understood."

Spirit God King was silent for a moment before speaking, "This time, I will help you, older brother, completely clear away all obstacles in this war."

"Younger brother, that Crimson Jade King is not someone easy to deal with." King Lingwei felt a shock in his heart and hurriedly reminded him.

Crimson Jade King was the third older brother of Crimson Pine King, and he was also a core imperial family member.

Speaking of the years spent in Cultivate, Crimson Jade King far exceeded Spirit God King. King Lingwei's expectation in his heart was simply for Spirit God King to hold back Crimson Jade King.

"Crimson Jade King?"

Spirit God King's tone was calm. "A core imperial family member who has not grown to the limit is no match for me."

A core imperial family member could challenge a Celestial Venerable with the body of a Great Venerable, but it was not without conditions; they needed to excavate their own Bloodline to the limit.

The threshold between a Great Venerable and a Celestial Venerable was not so easily crossed, even with the blessing of a dense Thirteenth Order life Bloodline.

"Younger brother, your Bloodline…" King Lingwei's pupils contracted as he looked at his younger brother in disbelief.

"Mn."

Spirit God King nodded.

"Good, good, good." Wild joy surged within King Lingwei's heart.

A core imperial family member whose Bloodline had been excavated to the ultimate limit could be called the strongest combat strength beneath a Celestial Venerable.

For so many years, there had yet to be any news of Crimson Jade King growing to the limit.

In other words, once Spirit God King and Crimson Jade King began to slaughter each other, the final victor would definitely be Spirit God King.

"Perhaps, younger brother is right. To Cultivate is the fundamental basis?"

Amidst his wild joy, this thought suddenly surfaced in King Lingwei's mind, but it was quickly replaced by delight. "Forget it, let us pierce through Azure Ember Domain first."

Azure Ember Domain.

Crimson Pine King and Crimson Jade King also stood at the front of the battlefield.

"The decisive battle should be starting soon."

Crimson Pine King gazed into the distance at the battlefield.

The war had lasted for five hundred years, and both sides had basically collided many times.

All-out slaughters between Peak Great Venerables also frequently occurred.

Crimson Pine King had a premonition that King Lingwei's side was almost unable to hold back anymore.

"Third Brother, I will have to trouble you next," Crimson Pine King said.

"Small problem." Crimson Jade King looked at Crimson Pine King with a smile. "Leave that Spirit God King to me. I have long heard that the Spirit God King of the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom has astonishing ancestor Bloodline; today, I can finally take a look."

"Spirit God King indeed has a great reputation," Crimson Pine King nodded.

Spirit God King was the youngest core imperial family member of the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom. It was said that when his Bloodline concentration was tested back then, it directly triggered an ancestor anomaly.

"Third Brother, should I continue to invite a few more enfeoffed imperial princes over?" Crimson Pine King thought for a moment and asked.

"Can you even invite them?" Crimson Jade King glanced at Crimson Pine King and smiled. "Besides, if you continue to invite enfeoffed princes, that King Lingwei will also invite even more enfeoffed princes. As a result, the intensity of the war will become higher and higher."

Between Ancient Countries, localized wars and conflicts frequently occurred, but they would tacitly suppress the intensity of the war to a certain degree.

Normally speaking.

For a localized war involving dozens of domains, having a single enfeoffed imperial prince hold down the fort was already the limit. Invite even more enfeoffed imperial princes? Not to mention that the price paid would increase exponentially, it would further raise the intensity of the war.

By then, eyes red with slaughter, more and more domains would be affected, triggering a full-scale war between Ancient Countries, with numerous powerful Celestial Venerables intervening.

That scene would truly be completely out of control.

Even the ambitious King Lingwei was unwilling to face that kind of situation. If the war intensity was too high, the situation would no longer be under his control. By then, even if he won the war, the merits obtained might not necessarily compare to the present.

Winning would not increase his merits and prestige by much, and if he lost, King Lingwei would be a sinner of the Ancient Kingdom, and the punishment he would suffer could be imagined.

Imprisonment for hundreds of millions of years would be considered light.

"That is true."

Crimson Pine King nodded.

The cost of raising the intensity of the war was even greater than the cost of losing a normal war.

"How is the current situation?" Crimson Jade King asked casually.

"Not bad. In the slaughter between Great Venerables, King Lingwei's side holds a slight advantage, but it is not very big. As long as you, Third Brother, can hold back Spirit God King, then King Lingwei will be unable to do anything to me."

Crimson Pine King was very confident. In terms of battlefield planning, Crimson Pine King considered himself to have reached the ultimate; unless the opponent possessed crushing strength, they would not be able to break in.

"I heard that you tacitly allowed a Great Venerable to comprehend a War Machine?" Crimson Jade King overlooked the battlefield and asked.

"Mn, it is Galaxy Great Venerable, a newly-advanced Great Venerable, and Azure Ember's Disciple. His potential is not bad." Crimson Pine King nodded. Privately allowing an outsider to comprehend a War Machine clearly violated the regulations of the Ancient Kingdom.

If anyone else had asked, Crimson Pine King would definitely have denied it and feigned ignorance, but Crimson Jade King?

As his own third older brother, Crimson Pine King naturally told him the truth.

"You think that highly of him?"

Crimson Jade King smiled and did not meddle further.

To him, let alone a newly-advanced Great Venerable, even a Peak Great Venerable did not catch his eye.

A core imperial family member, even if they had not grown to the limit, could easily sweep across their peers.

Sector of Defense Line Yi-13.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, his aura deep and restrained.

Five hundred years had passed, and Lin Yuan had already completely integrated the Blazing Sun Source into his inner Universe. His true body and Primordial Spirit in the Chaos Void, his true body and Primordial Spirit in this Origin World, and his inner Universe had all fused with and devoured the Blazing Sun Source.

"Truly miraculous."

Lin Yuan overlooked his inner Universe, where a blazing sun sat in the center, casting its brilliance across the Universe in all directions.

"My current strength should surpass a Peak Great Venerable."

Lin Yuan thought to himself. At this moment, his inner Universe fusing with and devouring the Blazing Sun Source was equivalent to constantly maintaining the Blazing Sun Creation of the Heavens Divine Ability. The profundity of his Foundation was so immense that even without utilizing any rule-based methods, he could suppress a Peak Great Venerable purely through his Foundation.

"As for a Celestial Venerable?"

Lin Yuan pondered in his heart. The Celestial Venerables of this Origin World were equivalent to the Great Saints of the Chaos Void. Having never truly fought one, Lin Yuan was unsure who was stronger or weaker.

"Now, in this Origin World, I can finally be considered to have the power to protect myself."

A smile surfaced on Lin Yuan's face. Although he did not know if he could rival a Celestial Venerable, it was very clear that it would be difficult for a Celestial Venerable to do anything to him; even if he could not defeat one, he was fully capable of protecting himself.

And Celestial Venerables were basically considered top-tier combat strength. Going further up were the emperors of the various Ancient Countries, as well as the ancestors.

The reason why the combat strength of the emperors of the various Ancient Countries surpassed Celestial Venerables was because they wielded weapons bestowed by the ancestors, but ancestor weapons could not be easily utilized.

Moreover, there were numerous restrictive conditions.

Therefore, as long as Lin Yuan was a bit careful, the threat from the emperors of the Ancient Countries could likewise be ignored.

"There is still the last Grade-A War Machine that I have yet to thoroughly comprehend."

Lin Yuan thought to himself. Over the past five hundred years, basically all the War Machines on the battlefield had been thoroughly comprehended by Lin Yuan.

Only this last Grade-A War Machine remained. In fact, this Grade-A War Machine had also been comprehended almost entirely, lacking only the final kick. With Lin Yuan's comprehension speed, it would take as short as the next moment or as long as a few months.

"Chaos Rules."

Lin Yuan wore a contemplative expression. Almost all the Chaos secret runes within the War Machines had been comprehended by him. Right now, Lin Yuan's comprehension of the Chaos Rules was just a hair's breadth away from reaching the Peak of the Second Stage.

"It is just the final Blazing Sun Seed."

Lin Yuan's brows furrowed slightly. Over the past five hundred years, Lin Yuan's Cultivate in all aspects had advanced by leaps and bounds, but it was precisely the Blazing Sun Seed that remained stuck.

The thirty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-third Blazing Sun Seed was right around the corner from being completely condensed, yet it continually failed to step across that final step.

"Is there a restrictive shackle that I do not know about?"

Lin Yuan thought to himself, planning that after some time, once he completely comprehended the last War Machine, he would go and inquire about it.

"Hm?"

Right at this moment, Lin Yuan's expression moved slightly as he looked toward the battlefield.

Great Venerable Changfeng led numerous War Machines, launching a massive attack toward this side.

"Attacking again?"

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow. Less than half a year had passed since the last attack. According to past patterns, the interval between each attack was at least ten to several decades.

After all, War Machines needed repairs, and Great Venerables also needed to rest.

Above the battlefield of Defense Line Yi-13.

Lin Yuan and Great Venerable Changfeng confronted each other from afar.

"Brother Galaxy, you must be careful next."

Great Venerable Changfeng secretly transmitted his voice to remind him.

Through five hundred years of slaughter, Lin Yuan and Great Venerable Changfeng had reached a tacit understanding, never fighting to the death. Both sides had developed a fairly deep friendship.

In fact, for Great Venerables, connections and friends were not restricted by the Ancient Countries. The Great Venerables of the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom and the Great Spirit Ancient Kingdom also had those who were on very good terms with each other.

Many Great Venerables would even travel across various Ancient Countries, serving different Ancient Countries every once in a while.

"Careful?"

Lin Yuan's expression shifted slightly.

Since Great Venerable Changfeng specifically reminded him, it certainly wasn't to tell Lin Yuan to be careful of him.

Over the past five hundred years, the two had fought many times. Even though Lin Yuan concealed his strength, based purely on the methods he displayed, it was difficult for Great Venerable Changfeng to do anything to him.

"Is King Lingwei about to launch a decisive battle?"

Lin Yuan likewise transmitted his voice to ask.

"Right." Great Venerable Changfeng hesitated for a moment before nodding and speaking.

This matter was not a secret. Even if he didn't say it, Lin Yuan would soon learn of it, because on the core defense line battlefield, all the Great Venerables on King Lingwei's side had already gathered completely.

"A decisive battle?"

Lin Yuan's gaze looked toward the core defense line battlefield.

The core defense line battlefield.

Space-time was thick and heavy, filled with the auras of Peak Great Venerables. Grade-A War Machines were similarly confronting one another.

Qing Fen Marquis, Red Leaf Great Venerable, and other Peak Great Venerables wore solemn expressions. They had prepared for a long time for the decisive battle between the two domains. After five hundred years of slaughter, both sides had probed each other almost thoroughly.

Next was the final decisive battle stage.

The duration of the final decisive battle stage would not be very short, but both sides would definitely slaughter each other with all their might, and the trump card methods previously hidden would be used one after another.

"In the final decisive battle, the most tragic battlefield will definitely be the core defense line battlefield. Galaxy's side should not be affected yet."

Qing Fen Marquis's thoughts drifted as he glanced at the distant Defense Line Yi-13 battlefield.

Rumble.

The next moment.

The Peak Great Venerables of both sides completely clashed into a bloody slaughter.

Compared to the past where only a few Peak Great Venerables fought with all their might, this time all Peak Great Venerables struck with their full strength, holding back almost nothing.

Azure flames began to burn in the space-time around Qing Fen Marquis, and an invisible blazing fire spread and covered all directions.

One after another, the other Peak Great Venerables also successively used numerous methods. For a time, large swathes of space-time in this battlefield area collapsed and disintegrated, even affecting the bombardment of the Grade-A War Machines below.

"Myriad Daos Return to Ruins."

On the Purple Dream Domain side, a tall and sturdy Peak Great Venerable took a massive step forward, and the surrounding heaven and earth began to collapse. For a time, Peak Great Venerables like Qing Fen Marquis all began to be affected.

"This kind of method?"

Qing Fen Marquis's expression changed slightly.

The other Great Venerables were the same; they faintly felt that the power of Chaos evolution they grasped was beginning to be weakened and suppressed.

At the rear of the battlefield.

Crimson Pine King and Crimson Jade King wore solemn expressions.

"I have to make a move."

Crimson Jade King spoke. The tall and sturdy Peak Great Venerable on the Purple Dream Domain side was clearly a hidden trump card of King Lingwei, and his strength was so formidable that it could influence the situation of the slaughter among more than a dozen Peak Great Venerables.

If Crimson Jade King did not step in to stop him, the Peak Great Venerables on the Azure Ember Domain side would likely fall into a complete disadvantage.

"Mn."

Crimson Pine King nodded. He could also see that the battlefield situation was very unfavorable for his side.

Hum hum hum.

Above the battlefield, heaven and earth seemed to be forcefully torn open, and a large expanse of crimson-red flames condensed, causing the tall and sturdy Peak Great Venerable to suddenly retreat several steps.

"Crimson Jade King."

The sturdy Peak Great Venerable wore a solemn expression.

Above all the Peak Great Venerables, at some unknown time, a figure appeared with crimson-red eyes, resembling a blazing sun burning.

However.

Before many of the Peak Great Venerables could react.

"Crimson Jade."

An inexplicable Divine Might permeated, and a figure appeared opposite Crimson Jade King, a smile surfacing on his face: "Let me see the methods of the Blazing Sun Ancient Kingdom imperial family."
