Sage Monarch (Sage Emperor)
chapter-1599-30041322

The primal-chaos paleo-energy was finally thinning out. Generally speaking, it would be considered a bad thing, as it indicated that the many heavens and myriad worlds were going to run out of resources.

Furthermore, it meant that war was coming.

In the Deathless Heaven Empire, inside the Central God-Palace, Greensura sat on a high throne, with Proud Heaven on a smaller throne below her. Standing at an even lower level were the King of Godmammoths, High Priestess, and Demon Master. The other old-timers were all kneeling.

“Everyone, prepare for war,” Proud Heaven said.

The atmosphere was very tense, and no one dared to speak. When Proud Heaven made his announcement, everyone felt their hearts sink as they knew that the time had come to fight the Sage Monarch Empire.

Greensura didn't do any of the talking. She had Proud Heaven do it for her.

Proud Heaven’s aura seemed invincible. At the same time, he seemed to be vibrating constantly, sending out a rock-like energy that made him seem like some sort of ancient necropolis. His mere gaze was enough to freeze anyone in place and cause prickles of discomfort. By now, the King of Godmammoths knew without a doubt that he wasn’t a match for Proud Heaven. Not by a longshot.

During the past three years of rest, recovery, and preparations, Proud Heaven had grown stronger by several times over. Not even the Sovereign Lord could be a match for him now. As for his psychic scale, it had already blown past a trillion.

The King of Godmammoths and the Demon Master still controlled the power of Operation Demon Destruction, thus were backed by a dimension with a sealed devil soul in it, as well as immense curse power. They could unleash it at any time as the most powerful of weapons.

Greensura had helped complete Operation Demon Destruction, and was planning to use it against Yang Qi.

If Yang Qi’s empire were to be hit with a devastating blow like that, it would surely reveal its weaknesses and allow for even more fatal blows to be unleashed upon it.

No one really knew how much the Deathless Heaven Empire had grown during the past three years.

The King of Godmammoths wasn’t involved in the upper workings of the dynasty, but he knew that new experts had proliferated like bamboo after a spring rain. They had dozens of times as many God-Lords as before, perhaps even as many as a hundred times. The god world had never seen a level of force like this. Compared to the Deathless Heaven Empire, both the Sovereign Lord’s old dynasty and the Sage Monarch Empire were like children’s toys. After all, the Sovereign Lord had been fighting against the True Devil, Demon Master, King Immortal-Slayer, Wretch God, and others. But now, there were only two forces in existence: the Sage Monarch Empire and the Deathless Heaven Empire.

“Presumably, you’re mentally prepared,” Proud Heaven said, looking over the crowd. This fight is to determine the fate of everything, including the god world. The Sage Monarch Empire is a cancer that has to be eradicated completely. Don’t worry, we’re going to win. We have to win. We’re going to wipe out everyone from the Sage Monarch Empire, down to the chickens and dogs! It's also the time to enrich yourselves. If you see something you want, take it, whatever it is.”

Everyone present exchanged surreptitious glances as they wondered if Proud Heaven was telling the truth. Did the Deathless Heaven Empire really have a chance of winning?

“We're definitely going to win,” Hailan said. “His Majesty and I will personally lead the army, along with our aegis, out to meet Yang Qi. The entire god world will move to the location of the Sage Monarch Empire. And we will have the advantage!”

Even as the words left her mouth, the god world started trembling and everyone could sense that it was moving upward, slowly heading toward the Sage Monarch Empire.

Ever since the Sage Monarch Empire and the Everlasting Aegis had risen above the god world, everyone in the god world could look up and see it. And over the past three years, it had been obvious that it had been growing larger, until it seemed to cover almost everywhere in the god world.

It caused an immense weight to crush down on them. But now, as the god world rose up, they eventually reached the position of being on the same level as the Sage Monarch Empire.

As the destinies of the two empires clashed, the destructive force created an empty space between them, which would be the battlefield.

Each clash of destiny caused both empires to tremble, resulting in the destruction of innumerable heavens and worlds.

All of a sudden, Yang Qi sensed the passageway to the impure lands opening up from the force. As the shockwaves swept forth, everything in both the impure lands and the immortal world was destroyed. The Titan Emperor Heaven, the Rich-Lush Continent, the Quake-Dawn Continent, Yanhaven, the Demi-Immortal Institute.

Everything was now nothing but a distant memory.

It was a new beginning.

The past was being swept away by the wind, dispersed like clouds.

Yang Qi stood at the forefront of his brethren and people as the god world rose up before them. Everyone had placid expressions and faint smiles, making them look almost like sleeping children.

From the look of it, everyone knew that war was coming, and after that, transcendence.

“My people,” Yang Qi said, his voice echoing throughout the silence of his empire. “The time of transcendence has come. The final battle is here. No one will pose an obstacle for our will. If the dao of heaven blocks us, we will crush it. If fate tries to hold us back, we will destroy it. After this battle, we’ll enjoy eternal peace and tranquility. It will be a new age, the likes of which has never been seen before. It will surpass the civilization of the gods, and will form an epic saga that lasts for all time.”

In response, cheering rang out everywhere.

“Let the fight begin!” Yang Susu cried.

“Fight!” shouted Jadefall. All of Yang Qi’s other friends and family took up similar cries.

“To battle!” Yang Qi said.

RUMBLE....

His empire opened its doors and endless hordes of people flooded out, instantly getting into formations that could destroy anything in their path.

Heaven and earth vanished.

The universe became nothing.

It was like a dream.

This was truly mighty power.

Before the god world could stabilize its position, Yang Qi and the armies of the Sage Monarch Empire smashed into it.

Immeasurable force slammed into the greyspace of the god world.

The people of the Sage Monarch Empire were like floodwaters, singing divine songs as they bore the quintessence of their empire.

“The Eternal Living Beings; Pursuing Your Ideal; In the Depths of the Void; The Aeonic Empty Spirit.”

“The Free and Unfettered Spirit; When Tribulation Descends; Atop the Ruins, a Beautiful Flower Blooms!”

“The Mighty Will; Severing the Yoke of Thought; The Founding of Civilization; Creating the Age of an Epic Saga!”

“The Psyche of Predestination; Controlling the Fetters of Fate; By Means of the Deathless Charge, Freedom is Attained!”

“Heft Your Sword; Lift it High; the World, the Sky, the Earth, the Universe, the Legion of Gods... Nothing Can Block our Path!”

Countless songs and hymns were being sung by the citizens, arias regarding the destruction of heaven and earth, the end of the universe, the reincarnation of life, new epochs, and new starts.

This was Yang Qi’s empire. These were his people. These were his gods. This was his civilization. Nothing had been seen like these wills, these songs, this might, this grandeur. It could overwhelm everything, like a tempest sweeping over the battlefield. The greatest epic sagas of the past paled in comparison.

Yang Qi’s people were a true people.

And he was leading the charge.

BAM!

As they smashed into the greyspace of the god world, everything trembled. The multiverse of the god world cracked loudly, and began to crumble. The god world was the mightiest thing in the many heavens, but it was at a disadvantage. And it couldn’t stop the charge.

SPLAT!

All dimensions within the Deathless Heaven Empire received a staggering blow, and spell formations and god kingdoms collapsed left and right. People evaporated.

Countless citizens were turned to dust.

There were even old-timers in the court who coughed up blood, completely shocked that Yang Qi's initial blow would be this severe.

The chanting and singing echoed in their minds. Whether it was the Patriarch of the Universe, Yang Chiliocosm, or other old-timers, including the government officials, grand princes, monarch rulers, imperial dukes, marquises, and other leaders.

Their empire couldn’t even stand up to even a single blow from Yang Qi’s empire. They couldn’t fight a people like this. The destiny of the Sage Monarch Empire was simply overwhelming, making theirs seem like a joke.

The Sage Monarch Empire had a will that could topple mountains and drain seas, and its people were completely and utterly united.

This was a true empire.

The people of the Deathless Heaven Empire, even those like the King of Godmammoths, felt like an unruly mob in the face of this charge. They were like gangsters who lived by extorting the weak, only to face an unstoppable army of divine soldiers. The two simply couldn't compare.
