Fantasy: Unparalleled Prince, Conquering the Heavens!-Chapter 717 - 721: The Fight in the Fifth Heaven Begins_1

Time passed; another five days had gone by.

For the All Clans within the Red Dragon Starfield, these brief five days were unbearably torturous. Each day felt like a year, and every minute, every second, dragged on for an eternity.

Should they submit to the Qin Dynasty?

Should they leave their Minor Thousand Worlds?

These two questions were like unsolvable puzzles. They racked their brains, tore out handfuls of hair, yet still found it impossible to decide.

Finally, the ten-day deadline arrived.

「In the Imperial Capital.」

"How many clans have submitted?"

In the imperial court, Qin Wudao sat upon his throne, his imperial prestige unrivaled, as he asked languidly.

His voice, though not loud, was like a rolling thunderbolt, resounding in the ears of all officials, compelling their utmost attention.

Zhuge Liang walked to the center of the hall, holding a memorial, and read aloud, "Your Majesty, as of the morning court, 223 of the All Clans have submitted! However, 157 races have not yet surrendered!"

As he spoke these words, his tone was filled with a chilling frost.

Anyone who disobeys the Emperor's decree shall be executed!

"Song Jiang, hear my command!" Qin Wudao called out, his face turning cold.

"Your servant is here!"

"I command you to lead the generals of Liang Mountain and sweep away all the clans that have not submitted. I want every living being in the Red Dragon Starfield to know that the heavens have changed!"

Qin Wudao's majestic voice was like a golden dragon roaring. His supreme imperial power enveloped the world.

BOOM!

In the firmament of the Nine Provinces World, the brilliant sun vanished. Dark clouds gathered, and a torrential downpour began.

The Emperor's fury alters the very face of the heavens!

"The heavens have changed!"

Countless citizens of the Qin Dynasty released their immortal energy and fled indoors to escape the rain.

However, many mischievous children still ran out of their homes, playing in the rain and loudly shouting, "The heavens have changed, the heavens have changed!"

Childish voices echoed from beneath the eaves, reverberating between heaven and earth.

The heavens have indeed changed!

In the imperial court, the officials, listening to the rain and contemplating Qin Wudao's orders, wore cold smiles as they muttered to themselves.

This is a rain of blood! Let it pour! Let it fall! Once this rain stops, the Starfield will finally see clear skies! The Qin Dynasty's Heavenly Court will become the new sky of the Red Dragon Starfield.

After the court assembly concluded, Song Jiang, leading the generals of Liang Mountain, flew out of the Nine Provinces World. They traversed the boundless starry sky. Organized into teams of four, they swept forward relentlessly.

「The Snowstorm Clan!」

This was one of the races in the southern region of the Starfield, with a Profound Immortal Martial Artist presiding over it, located not far from the Amethyst Clan.

"Clan Leader, the Qin Dynasty's Heavenly Court has dispatched experts and successively exterminated over a dozen races. What should we do?"

At the clan's encampment, within the largest structure, the high-ranking members of the Snowstorm Clan were gathered. The atmosphere was oppressive, every face etched with worry and anxiety.

At the head seat, the Snowstorm Clan Leader frowned deeply, his pale blue eyes filled with terror and panic.

Brimming with regret! He had actually wanted to surrender, but his pride had gotten in the way; he felt he would lose face, so he had kept hesitating. Now that the Qin Dynasty had dispatched its forces, he was truly afraid. What should he do?

"At this point, our only option is to migrate to another Starfield!" after a long pause, the Snowstorm Clan Leader finally voiced a solution in a somber tone.

Upon hearing this, all the high-ranking members in the hall fell silent.

Migrating to another Starfield was indeed a solution, but the cost was far too great. The Snowstorm Clan had been established in the Red Dragon Starfield for hundreds of millions of years, with innumerable foundations. If they migrated, apart from the people and resources they could carry, everything else would have to be abandoned. Moreover, during the migration, they would have to be wary of demonic cultivators, the Human Clan, and the other All Clans. The journey would be fraught with danger, and finding a new, safe place to settle would be incredibly difficult. Unless absolutely forced to, very few clans chose to migrate. But aside from this, there seemed to be no other way.

BANG!

Suddenly, a terrifying aura descended from the sky, shattering a large expanse of the Void and subjecting every living creature within that world to an immense pressure, rendering them immobile.

A Taiyi Earth Immortal expert! Could it... could a powerhouse from the Qin Dynasty have arrived?

Inside the main hall, the Snowstorm Clan Leader's face changed drastically. His lips turned white, devoid of any color, and he was completely enveloped in an aura of dread and unease.

However, upon further reflection, he felt something was amiss.

The Snowstorm Clan only has one Profound Immortal Martial Artist. Would they really dispatch a Taiyi Earth Immortal expert for us? Isn't this swatting a fly with a sledgehammer?

Having reasoned this out, the Snowstorm Clan Leader steadied his nerves, walked out of the main hall, and gazed up at the vast sky. After careful observation, a hint of joy appeared on his face.

It turned out to be...

"This Saint Heir sensed your presence from the Crystal Minor Thousand World. Tell this Saint Heir, who annihilated the Amethyst Clan?"

Crystal Sage Jade stood atop the world's sky-barrier, hands clasped behind his back, his bearing godlike, as he asked in a cold voice.

Beneath his feet, the world's sky-barrier rippled continuously, emitting CRACKLING sounds, as if it might fracture and explode at any moment.

"I pay my respects, milord!" the Snowstorm Clan Leader said, kneeling and squeezing out a few tears. "It was the Qin Dynasty's Heavenly Court! That brutal and greedy nation wants to occupy our Minor Thousand World!"

"The Amethyst Clan Leader, driven by righteousness, had convened a 'Clan Leaders' Summit' to resist the Qin Dynasty's Heavenly Court!"

"But... but who would have thought! The Qin Dynasty's Heavenly Court was so utterly depraved as to dispatch their powerhouses to massacre the Amethyst Clan and all the clan leaders who had participated in the summit!"

The Snowstorm Clan Leader's voice was choked with sobs.

"The Qin Dynasty!" Upon learning the culprit, murderous intent surged in Crystal Sage Jade's eyes. "Tell this Saint Heir, where is the Qin Dynasty located?" he asked coldly.

The Snowstorm Clan Leader did not hesitate, immediately producing a star map.

Crystal Sage Jade waved his hand, a surge of energy seizing the star map and drawing it into his grasp. His right foot then stomped down forcefully, unleashing boundless power. He shattered a hole in the world's sky-barrier and flew towards the central region of the Starfield.

WHOOSH!

Violent astral winds surged in through the shattered sky-barrier, sweeping across the world and destroying everything in their path.

The Snowstorm Clan Leader felt no distress whatsoever; on the contrary, he was so ecstatic he felt he could take flight.

A powerhouse of the Crystal Clan has arrived! The Qin Dynasty's Heavenly Court is doomed!

「Fifth Heavenly Layer, in the Sect Master's Grand Hall.」

How could this be possible? The Qin Dynasty's Heavenly Court is merely a newly ascended power! Lin Tianyi, who had left the forbidden grounds several days prior, was still in a state of complete shock.

The words spoken by the one-armed Martial Artist replayed endlessly in his mind.

Within the Qin Dynasty's territory, there were three monstrous prodigies and over ten top-tier geniuses. It was too incredible! Utterly preposterous!

"Sect Master," an elder reported respectfully as he walked in at that moment, "the experts who were out traveling have all returned!"

Lin Tianyi shook his head, temporarily pushing aside thoughts of the Qin Dynasty. "Good!" he commanded majestically. "Let them come in. Prepare to convene a sect assembly!"

He sat on his chair, his eyes glinting.

If the Qin Dynasty truly possesses so many geniuses, then it is undoubtedly a great blessing for the Human Clan! Even if it meant sacrificing the Guiyuan Sect, he had to protect the Qin Dynasty's Heavenly Court from the Crystal Clan's assault. Even if his own soul were to be shattered and dispersed, he had to shelter the geniuses of the Qin Dynasty's Heavenly Court until they reached maturity.

Four hours later, the Guiyuan Sect declared war on the Crystal Clan!

Eight Golden Immortal Realm experts led three hundred thousand elite disciples. Riding winds that stretched for ninety thousand miles, they descended outside the Minor Thousand World where the Crystal Clan resided.

"Humans, are you seeking death?" a voice thundered from within the world. It belonged to an enraged Crystal Clan expert, filled with a raging fire that threatened to consume the endless starry sky and burn it to Voidness.

The winds and clouds churned as several Crystal Clan powerhouses flew out from the world's sky-barrier. The might of Golden Immortals tore through the sky as they engaged in a chaotic battle with the Golden Immortal experts of the Guiyuan Sect.

In the Fifth Heavenly Layer, the winds began to rise!
