Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Upon hearing that the Blood Ancestor had emerged from seclusion, the leaders of various forces in the Southern Region were all filled with trepidation.

After they pledged allegiance to the Blood Eagle Palace, the Tianhua Palace launched a campaign against the Blood Eagle Palace. However, all the various factions simply sat back and watched the fight unfold, completely ignoring the Blood Eagle Palace's orders.

Now that Blood Ancestor has emerged from seclusion, he will likely make an example of a few people to deter others.

Thinking of this, some of the guilty faction leaders had the idea of ​​betraying the Southern Region. However, when they thought about how the Blood Ancestor was about to establish his authority after emerging from seclusion, they realized that if they chose to betray the Blood Eagle Palace at this time, wouldn't they be more likely to become the target of being made an example of?

Most importantly, at this time, they have betrayed the Blood Eagle Palace and seem to have no one to protect them.

If they seek refuge in the Wildlands, their forces will likely be destroyed by the Blood Ancestor before the Hidden Moon Cult Leader even arrives.

They should follow Tianhua Palace's example and side with the Eastern Region. They didn't send anyone to the Eastern Region to discuss this matter beforehand, and Xiyue Immortal Emperor might not necessarily clash with the Blood Ancestor for their sake.

The reason why the Blood Ancestor ignored the divine thought of the Immortal Emperor Xiyue descending upon the Southern Region was because the Blood Ancestor had not yet emerged from seclusion. Perhaps the Immortal Emperor Xiyue also knew that the Blood Ancestor had not yet emerged from seclusion, which is why she sent down a divine thought to warn the various forces in the Southern Region.

Now that the Blood Ancestor has emerged from seclusion and possesses the strength of an Immortal Emperor, who would still tolerate whom?

How could the Celestial Emperor Xiyue possibly fight against another Celestial Emperor for the sake of their forces?

After much deliberation, the leaders of the various forces in the Southern Region ultimately chose to go to the Blood Eagle Palace.

Blood Eagle Palace.

High in the sky, warships were rapidly approaching the Blood Eagle Palace.

When the leaders of various forces approached the Blood Eagle Palace, they could see the Blood Ancestor's enormous body that pierced the clouds. Even if the Blood Ancestor did not release his pressure, the Immortal Venerables would still feel immense pressure once they got close.

The leaders of various forces in the Southern Region lowered their altitude and came before the Blood Ancestor to pay their respects. After all the leaders of the Southern Region had arrived, the Blood Ancestor glanced at the Immortal Venerables present and then said to the Blood Demon Immortal Venerable, "Take a look and see who is missing."

Upon hearing this, the immortals were taken aback. Were they planning to settle scores with those forces that hadn't come? It was fortunate that they had arrived; otherwise, they might have truly become the "chickens" used to scare the monkeys.

Blood Demon Immortal Venerable glanced at the Immortal Venerables present, then said to Blood Ancestor, "Blood Ancestor, apart from those low-level Immortal Sects that have already been conquered, and the forces that have already submitted to the Wilderness, they have basically all arrived."

Upon hearing this, the Blood Ancestor unleashed his overwhelming power, his immense imperial might instantly pressing all the Immortal Venerables who were standing in mid-air to the ground.

The Blood Ancestor merely unleashed his imperial might, and cracks appeared on the earth, as if the Southern Region was about to disintegrate at any moment.

Feeling the oppressive aura released by the Blood Ancestor, the Immortal Venerables lay prostrate on the ground, drenched in sweat and trembling.

Is this the power of a Celestial Emperor?
They actually held onto a sliver of hope, thinking that the Blood Ancestor might be nearing the end of his life and that his strength was no longer what it used to be.

The immortals wished they could slap themselves twice when they thought about their absurd ideas back then.

If they had stood firmly on the side of the Blood Eagle Palace and helped it fight against the Heavenly Flower Palace, their power would certainly be of a higher status than most other forces in the Southern Region.

But it's too late to regret it now. All I can do is try to make a good impression on the Blood Ancestor.

At this moment, Blood Ancestor asked in a cold voice, "Which forces have submitted to the Wilderness?" Blood Ancestor's voice was like thunder, making people's ears ring, and those present felt that their hearts were about to stop beating.

Blood Demon Immortal Venerable replied, "Most of them are low-level immortal sects that have submitted to the Wildlands, but there is one top-level force that chose to submit to the Wildlands from the very beginning."

"This force is the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect. When the Wildlands first invaded the Southern Region, they chose to join the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty and become its subordinate force."

Upon hearing this, Blood Ancestor was taken aback.

"The Great Qin Immortal Dynasty? If I remember correctly, the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty was the immortal dynasty founded by Lu Chen, right?"

The Blood Demon Immortal replied, "Yes."

Blood Ancestor fell silent for a moment. He did not want to confront Lu Chen directly for the time being. He was still thinking of having Lu Chen deal with the Demon Emperor of the Northern Region.

After regaining his senses, Blood Ancestor coldly sneered, "The Xuanxiao Immortal Sect can be ignored for now. As for those forces that have joined the Wildlands, I want to see them completely disappear within a month."

Upon hearing Blood Ancestor's words, Blood Demon Immortal Venerable was immediately puzzled. Blood Ancestor had always shown strong hostility towards Lu Chen, so why did he suddenly not want to attack Lu Chen now that he had come out of seclusion?
He thought that after learning that the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect had joined the Great Qin Immortal Dynasty, the Blood Ancestor would take action against the Xuanxiao Immortal Sect first, as a warning to others.

At this moment, all the immortal venerables said in unison, "We will obey the Blood Ancestor's decree!"

At this moment, Blood Ancestor released his divine sense again to explore the entire Southern Region. This time, he restrained himself and did not release all his aura at the beginning.

Soon, he discovered a threat near the Sunset Mountains, but it was just a corpse that seemed to have been refined.

A mocking smile appeared on Blood Ancestor's face. Is this the source of the Barbarians' confidence in attacking the Southern Region?
Having refined the corpse of an extraterrestrial being, they actually dared to attack the Southern Region.

Even if that so-called divine corpse is powerful, the remaining strength in its body is still inferior to that of a person with a divine soul. For them, the strength of the divine soul is true strength. A corpse without a divine soul has very little power left in its body.

That corpse had existed for countless years. The Heavenly Dao of the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Realm had been drawing power from these extraterrestrial beings to transform into immortal energy. Therefore, no matter how powerful the original owner of that body was in life, he could not exchange more than a few blows with him after becoming a corpse.

Moreover, that corpse was merely refined by a Celestial Venerable. Once that Celestial Venerable is killed, the corpse will naturally lose control.

Blood Ancestor did not consider that "divine corpse" a threat at all.

Of course, he didn't intend to rush over and kill the Hidden Moon Cult Leader who was controlling the divine corpse right now, mainly because he had just escaped the suppression of the Heavenly Dao and his strength had not yet fully recovered.

Blood Ancestor then said to the Immortal Venerables present, "I have heard that some of you were initially unwilling to obey the Immortal Decree of the Blood Eagle Palace?"

Hearing this, the immortals were even more terrified. Were they about to be punished and made an example of?
Just when the Immortal Venerables thought that Blood Ancestor was about to make a move against them, Blood Ancestor spoke up and said, "I can give you one last chance. If you can perform well in the upcoming war, I can forgive and forget what happened in the past. But if you continue to act as before, then your forces will have no reason to exist, and I will take action myself."

Upon hearing Blood Ancestor's words, the Immortal Venerables were taken aback. Was Blood Ancestor not going to make an example of someone? Was he just going to let it go like that?
The Blood Ancestor wanted them to fight desperately and escalate the war, so that these people would have greater value in living.

He believed that after he had reprimanded them, these people would know what to do when they returned. Of course, if there were still people who continued to obey orders but not orders, he would not mind taking action himself.

The Blood Ancestor then said a few more words, giving a warning to the faction leaders present, before letting them go back. (End of Chapter)
