Primordial Era: With unparalleled comprehension, I opened up the realms of gods and gods.

Chapter 220 Shameless Protector

at the same time.

The Tai Xuan Dynasty also took this opportunity to lay out its defensive line at Yanhu Mountain, thus completing the second line of defense against the Great Shang Dynasty.

The formation of the great array finally allowed Emperor Taixuan Yin He, who had been on tenterhooks, to breathe a sigh of relief.

but.

Although the Tai Xuan Dynasty was able to establish its second line of defense, it also incurred the wrath of the Taishan Prefecture.

as predicted.

Decades after the successful deployment of the Tai Xuan Dynasty's defensive formation.

The Great God of Qishan, the Mountain God of Taishan Prefecture, proclaims:

Taishan Prefecture and the Mountain God Department officially joined the war of imperial destiny, assisting the Great Shang Dynasty in unifying the country.

Simultaneously.

The Great Shang Dynasty also declared: "Tai Xuan is wicked and disrespectful to the gods. Therefore, we are raising an army of ten trillion to conquer this rebellious dynasty!"

For a time, the entire Tai Xuan Dynasty was filled with unease.

Yin He was even less willing to sit and wait for death, so he immediately raised an army of trillions and deployed them on the first line of defense, led by twelve first-rank generals.

More than 20 billion celestial gods and great celestial gods were deployed on the second line of defense, maintaining the operation of many great formations while also participating in the Tai Xuan Zhou Tian patrol.

The third line of defense, which is also the last line of defense for the borders of the Tai Xuan Dynasty.

This defensive line was entirely deployed by humans at the True God and Main God realms, as well as True Immortal and Golden Immortal realms.

among them,

There are 80 million human cultivators in the True Immortal Realm, 5 million in the Golden Immortal Realm, tens of thousands in the Taiyi Realm, and dozens in the Daluo Realm.

And this was only a small portion of the reinforcements sent by the Great Zhou Dynasty to the Shouyang Mountain region.

This gives us a glimpse into the general strength of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which should not be underestimated.

Although the three lines of defense along the border of the Tai Xuan Dynasty were heavily guarded, they could only delay the Great Shang Dynasty for a short time and were not enough to completely stop the Great Shang Dynasty's offensive.

Emperor Yin He of Tai Xuan, and all those within Tai Xuan, were naturally aware of this.

They're gambling!

The bet is that the Great Zhou Dynasty can resolve the issue of the Great Character Dynasty in the Shouyang Mountain region first, and then send troops to provide large-scale support to Tai Xuan.

As for the Xia Dynasty in the Yellow River basin, it was naturally dealt with by the alliance of twelve dynasties.

after all.

Neither the Shang Dynasty supported by the gods nor the Zhou Dynasty supported by the Xuanmen wanted the Shenxia Dynasty to unify the Yellow River basin before they had a decisive battle.

and so.

Within that alliance of twelve dynasties, there must be secret support from two forces.

This was solely to delay the progress of the former hegemon, the Divine Xia Dynasty.

The Dragon Dynasty and the Jiang Dynasty.

In the eyes of the Great Shang Dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the Divine Xia Dynasty, that was merely the edge of the human race's habitat, how could it compare to the Yellow River basin, the Shouyang Mountain region, and the Central Plains region along the East China Sea?

Another century has passed.

The Great Shang Dynasty's massive army, numbering ten trillion, was divided into eighteen routes, each led by a top-tier first-rank divine general.

They fought for decades in key areas such as Tianyuan, Haibin, and Tongyun Pass, which formed the first line of defense for the Tai Xuan Dynasty.

Finally, in the hundred and some years, they broke through the first line of defense.

In an instant.

The Shang Dynasty's massive army, numbering in the trillions, surged towards every gap in the formation like a tidal wave, and Tai Xuan's army, now less than a trillion strong, could not stop them.

Thus, the two sides fought hand-to-hand for hundreds of years, resulting in countless deaths and injuries, and finally ended with a great defeat for the Tai Xuan army.

The few remaining first-rank generals could only lead their remaining troops, numbering less than a hundred billion, to the second line of defense, where they joined forces with the main army to resist the invasion of the Great Shang Dynasty.

at the same time.

In the distant Yellow River basin, Ji Yang of the Great Zhou Dynasty also raised an army of twelve trillion to press against the Great Yu Dynasty.

but.

Unlike the Tai Xuan Dynasty, the Dayu Dynasty had the support of the Star God System, making it far more powerful in terms of military strength.

and so.

Faced with the twelve trillion-strong army of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Great Yu Dynasty relied on the Star Array and Starlight Array provided by the Star God Clan to steadily keep the Great Zhou at bay.

not only that.

The Great Yu Dynasty still has an army of three trillion, which is enough to keep up with the Great Zhou Dynasty for a long time.

Meanwhile, in the Yellow River basin, there was the Xia Dynasty.

Seeing that both the Great Shang and Great Zhou had already raised armies, they were unwilling to fall behind. They immediately raised an army of twenty trillion, divided into twelve routes, each led by ten first-rank generals, to attack the alliance of the twelve dynasties.

As a descendant of the previous emperor, the Divine Xia Dynasty did not receive much support from the Divine Race and the Xuanmen.

However, based solely on its own foundation, the Shenxia Dynasty was still no weaker than the Shang and Zhou Dynasties.

In the lands of the Eastern Human Race today.

There was a three-way war between the human races, while two other human races watched from the shore.

All the various dynasties began with the idea of ​​the single Celestial Empire, leading to endless disputes.

of course.

Among them, there were also secret confrontations and duels between the great immortals of the Xuanmen sect and the great gods of the Divine Court.

The two sides are locked in a battle, with the imperial army below and the gods and immortals fighting fiercely above.

Due to an agreement between the two sides' leaders, neither the immortal nor the divine forces can personally intervene in the human race's battlefield; their only recourse is to provide financial assistance.

The Realm of Star Gods.

That is, the Star God Realm.

As the main divine realm of the Star God System and the main world of the Infinite God King Star Ancestor, the Star God Realm has long since been promoted to the peak of the middle thousand worlds.

at this time.

Because the Star Ancestor has transformed into countless stars in the multiverse, all matters of the pantheon are decided by the supreme gods of the Star God Clan through discussion.

Star Palace.

Sixty-four supreme gods were gathered in the main hall.

The Star Gods make up a small portion of the population, while the remaining half consists of members of the pantheon.

"Lord Ziwei, Guangchengzi of the Xuanmen has challenged us to a duel in the Shouyang Mountain area. Shall we accept the challenge?"

Lord Po Jun asked at this moment.

Unlike the Star Lords of Po Jun, Qi Sha, and Tan Lang, who joined the Star God Clan halfway through their lives, the Ziwei Star Lord is not a member of the Star God Clan.

He is the second-generation Ziwei Star Lord.

The first Ziwei Star Lord was killed by Donghuang Taiyi when he was in the Demon Court.

Therefore, when the Divine Court was in power, the second-generation Ziwei Star Lord was born.

With the guidance of the Star Ancestor, the Ziwei Star Lord rose to prominence, surpassing many top star gods and becoming one of the strongest star gods of the moment.

Therefore, his strength had already reached the peak of the Supreme God.

In particular, his aura of imperial power was especially strong.

Therefore.

Although the divine authority is synonymous with the supreme god of the star gods, the decisions are actually made by the Ziwei Star Lord.

This is also the will established by the Star Ancestor after he transformed into countless stars.

In all matters of the royal court, the Ziwei Star Lord is in charge, with many other Star Lords as assistants, and the other gods as secondary.

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Ziwei Star calmly surveyed the surroundings.

Seeing the eager expressions on the faces of the supreme gods, he understood, but outwardly he still asked in a deep voice.

"What are your thoughts on the Xuanmen's challenge?"

As the most warlike star lord, the Greedy Wolf Star Lord immediately stood up and spoke.

"Lord Ziwei, is there any need for discussion now? With Guang Chengzi and his crooked ilk, why should we fear them? I propose that we fight if we must!"

"I second that!"

Upon seeing this, the Seven Killings Star Lord also echoed this sentiment.

Seeing this, the other star lords and god lords assessed the strength of the Chan Sect and their own star god system, and they all echoed the sentiment.

We must fight.

But that depends on who's on the other side, and who they are!

If the opposing side only consists of people from Guang Chengzi's lineage, then the Star God Clan alone can easily crush them.

but.

In large-scale battles between immortals and gods, the Twelve Golden Immortals (quasi-saints) of the Chan Sect always acted together.

although.

The second and third generation disciples of the three schools of Taoism each founded numerous sects and schools.

But this does not mean that there is no connection between them.

Especially the disciples of the Chan Sect, who were known for protecting their own and for their arrogance.

It's like hitting the little one, attracting the big one, and then the old one.

Therefore, it is acceptable to challenge the disciples of Guang Chengzi's lineage to a duel, but one must still be wary of shameless protectors who may emerge from the shadows.

Being besieged and losing face is a minor matter, but losing one's life and affecting the Divine Court's plans is a much bigger problem.

To know.

Their divine race has been fighting against that shameless man for so many years, and they have experienced firsthand his biased and protective behavior.

There were a few times.

If they weren't all under the sky, protected by the divine beings Cangtian and Qingtian Dadi, he might have actually found an opportunity to destroy a divine royal court.

Thinking of this, the Lord of Ziwei Star immediately spoke in a deep voice.

"Gentlemen, although the great emperors of our Divine Court and the sages of the Xuanmen have an agreement that the great emperors and sages cannot participate in the battles between immortals and gods, the numerous quasi-sages under their protection must not be underestimated!"

The Lord of Ziwei Star paused for a moment, then continued.

"The Great Yu Dynasty is backed only by the Starry Sky Royal Court, which has only sixty-four supreme gods comparable to quasi-saints, while the Xuanmen Chan Sect has more than a hundred."

"Besides the supreme gods who need to be stationed in various places and realms, the royal court can only mobilize twenty-four supreme gods."

But the Lord of the Broken Army Star said something.

"Even so, our royal court is not without the power to fight!"

"good."

The Lord of Venus also echoed this sentiment.

"It should be understood that although the Xuanmen (mystical sects) find it easier to attain Quasi-Sainthood than we, the divine race, do so because of their innate spiritual treasures, their success is also their downfall. Due to the difference in the quality of their spiritual treasures, their cultivation advancement after attaining Quasi-Sainthood is far slower than ours!"

"Our royal court currently boasts nine supreme gods at their peak, comparable to the thirty quasi-saints of their Chan Sect!"

Upon hearing this, the gods nodded thoughtfully.

indeed.

Although it is more difficult for their divine race to attain the highest godhood than for the Xuanmen (Taoist sect) to attain the quasi-sainthood.

But the difference is.

Because of their connection to the various primordial realms of gods, their divine race is able to directly comprehend the Three Thousand Laws.

and so.

On the path of the supreme god, their divine race faces difficulties first and then finds things easier.

In addition, the gods themselves possess a large number of divine artifacts, and within the same realm, their combat power is in no way inferior to that of a quasi-saint wielding an innate spiritual treasure.

Even the most powerful gods and the most powerful quasi-saints of the Xuanmen have their own top-grade innate spiritual treasures, but if they don't have them, they'll probably only be suppressed by the gods.

The number of top-grade innate spiritual treasures

Needless to say, it was extremely rare in the entire prehistoric world! Thinking of this...

The Lord of Ziwei Star snapped out of his reverie, his expression turning solemn as he spoke earnestly.

"In that case, let me, Po Jun, Qi Sha, Tan Lang, Tai Bai, Ying Huo, Shui Lan... and the other twenty-four supreme beings, along with a thousand Great Luo Gods, meet with Guang Chengzi, the chief of the Chan Sect, in the Shouyang Mountain region!"

He paused for a moment, then looked at the two late-stage Supreme Star Gods, Jupiter and Saturn.

"Tai Sui, Zhen Yu" (太岁, Tai Sui, Zhen Yu)

"Great Star Lord!" Upon hearing this, the two immediately stood up and solemnly responded in a loud voice.

"After we keep our appointment, we will entrust the affairs of the royal court and all realms to you!"

"good!"

Upon seeing this, the Lord of Ziwei Star laughed heartily with satisfaction.

"Hahaha~ Get up!"

Then, his figure transformed into a purple divine radiance and vanished into the Star God Realm.

Along with them were twenty-three supreme gods, and over a thousand of the ten thousand great gods waiting outside the hall, including the fighting great gods.
