The situation had evolved into this state, the result of the Fallen Overlord's meticulous planning. He didn't want either faction to become too powerful after his death. At this moment, both sides were locked in a deadlock over the right to fuse the Overlord mecha, a fight to the death.
"Alas! So many years have passed, and I don't know when the two sides will be able to reach a consensus. It's been a waste of so much time for Honghuang to develop!" The eighth prince sighed, his face full of helplessness.
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold murderous intent suddenly rushed over him. Hachioji felt his neck tighten, instantly being gripped by a hand like an iron clamp. He wanted to shout, but his throat seemed to be strangled by an invisible force, and no sound came out.
"Seeing you're so sad, why not just die!" Zhang Qiming's eyes flashed with determination, and a powerful suction came from his palm. The Eighth Prince, who had relied on potions to prolong his life, aged rapidly like a withered flower, his vitality fading.
Zhang Qiming sneered inwardly. Seeing the Lingxie Xianyu royal family hadn't donned their mechas in time, their strength was so weak, and the prince was only at the peak of the Celestial Supreme, he had easily succeeded. He discarded the Eighth Prince's body like a dead dog, muttering to himself, "Dare to capture my mother, Yu Kai? I'll kill you first and collect some interest!" With that, he vanished in a flash.
He reappeared after quietly leaving the Demon Guard Pass. Looking at the base built by Asia in the distance, he sneered, "Yu Kai, I wonder if the people of Asia would hold your mother accountable if they knew you killed their prince!"
At this moment, the alarm at the Demon Guardian Pass sounded loudly, and countless mechas rose into the sky like a swarm of bees, rushing towards him frantically. Zhang Qiming immediately hid his body and fled towards the Thirty-Third Heaven.
The densely packed mecha army alarmed the two Western Saints stationed there. Seeing the mechas pouring in like a tide, Jie Yin and Zhunti hurried to meet them, simultaneously sending a rapid message to the Thirty-Third Heaven.
Before the two could figure out why the other had suddenly attacked, all kinds of energy cannons rained down on them. Jie Yin loudly demanded, "Why did you attack me, Hong Huang, for no reason?"
"Kill! Avenge the Eighth Prince, kill them!" Countless mechas roared and attacked like a surging wave.
Jie Yin and Zhunti were shocked. Jie Yin resisted while shouting, "What does the death of your eight princes have to do with me, Hong Huang?"
"Stop talking nonsense, kill them, force them to hand over Yu Kai, and pay for the life of the Eighth Prince!" A lord mecha roared angrily, full of murderous intent.
Seeing the mechas approaching with such force, Jie Yin and Zhunti knew they would not give in easily, and they each summoned their divine weapons. Jie Yin's twelve-flowered golden lotus blossomed with boundless Buddha light, and its seeds scattered like meteors, temporarily repelling the mecha army. Zhunti, wielding the demon-subduing pestle, engaged the leader's mecha in a blaze of light, radiating energy.
Just when Jie Yin and Zhunti were gradually getting tired, Xumizi, Tongtian, Nuwa, Chaos Donkey and Ziwei Emperor led a large army and rushed from the thirty-three heavens like thunder.
Seeing that the enemy had a large number of reinforcements, the three lords knew they were no match for the enemy and decisively ordered a retreat.
Xumizi and the others watched the retreating mecha army, but instead of pursuing them, they hurriedly questioned their reason for attacking. Upon hearing of the tragic death of the Eighth Prince, everyone's expressions became solemn. Immediately afterwards, Xumizi issued a mobilization order, demanding that all masters of the prehistoric world, above the rank of Great Venerable, immediately head to the Thirty-Third Heaven to prepare for battle.
The news spread across the world like a whirlwind, and various factions responded one after another. The elders in their families who had been in seclusion broke out one after another and rushed to the Thirty-Third Heaven without hesitation, ready to protect the world.
Meanwhile, Yu Kai, relying on the magical jade gifted by Hou Tu, finally found the mysterious foggy sea after many twists and turns. He broke through the huge vortex of the ocean current and landed on a small island with Emperor Shi, Emperor Jiang, and the others.
Their appearance, especially the strong murderous intent on Yu Kai's part, immediately alarmed Duobao, Jin Hoop Immortal and Wu Dang Shengmu who were in seclusion.
Duobao was startled, then delighted: "This is the aura of Yu Kai and Shi Di. They actually came here. How could this kid have such a strong killing intent?"
Just as he was wondering, Yu Kai roared like thunder across the island: "Golden Hoop Immortal, come out and die!"
The three of them flew out in a hurry and were shocked when they saw the Devouring Emperor and the Eleven Ancestral Witches.
"Emperor Shi, they are the Ancestral Witches?" Duobao asked in disbelief. He then looked at Yu Kai and said, "You are really good, kid. I really resurrected you!"
Yu Kai did not respond, his eyes staring at the Golden Hoop Immortal like a wolf, with murderous intent as if to devour him.
At the same time, the Devouring Emperor blocked the island, and mysterious runes filled the sky like stars.
"Yu Kai, what are you doing? Also, how did you find this place?" Duobao didn't understand the situation, but he could clearly feel Yu Kai's anger.
"Master Beast, get out of the way. I must kill him today!" The Moon Spirit Holy Sword appeared out of thin air in Yu Kai's hand, and his momentum rose like a volcanic eruption.
"Is there some misunderstanding?" Duobao looked at Yu Kai, then at the Golden Hoop Immortal: "Junior brother, how did you offend this guy?"
"I... I really don't know!" The Golden Hoop Immortal, stared at by the eleven Ancestral Witches, felt a cold sweat on his forehead. He knew these people were incredibly powerful, and remembering Tongtian's warning, he felt he might actually be in for a bloody disaster. But he couldn't understand why he was suddenly being targeted by so many powerful individuals, none of whom he had ever seen before.
"Don't you know? My sister Liu Ling died at your hands!" Yin Ziling put her hands on her hips, her face flushed with anger.
"Liu Ling!" Duobao's face suddenly changed, and Wu Dang Shengmu and others also realized the seriousness of the matter.
"What did you do to Liu Ling?" Duobao knew Yu Kai cared deeply about Liu Ling and had even asked his master to help him deduce her whereabouts. Seeing the expressions of Wu Dang Shengmu and the others, he immediately understood. No wonder his master had left without a word after the deduction and specifically asked him to protect them.
"She, she had an accident during childbirth!" The Golden Hoop Immortal broke out in a cold sweat. He had never imagined that going out to capture an alchemist would attract so many experts.
"Duobao, get out of the way! He is still chasing Yu Kai's child. He must die today!" Emperor Shi said coldly.
"Yu Kai, you see, I saved your life. Besides, your master and the others were resurrected, thanks to my master. Will you please let my junior brother go?" Duobao said, protecting the Golden Hoop Immortal behind him, feeling conflicted. He knew the Golden Hoop Immortal was wrong, but he was his junior brother, and he considered their bond as fellow disciples. At the same time, he valued his relationship with Yu Kai and feared a complete break with him.
"No, my child is missing and Liu's soul is scattered. I would not be a gentleman if I don't take revenge!" Yu Kai's eyes were red and bloodshot, and his emotions were almost out of control.
"Liu's soul has dispersed?" Duobao looked at the Holy Mother Wu Dang.
The Holy Mother Wu Dang had a complicated expression: "At that time, in order to escape our control, she resolutely burned her soul and held us back, so that the Qiankun Soul Gathering Furnace could escape with the child!"
"Master Shou, please move aside. They will all die and be buried with Liu Ling!" Yu Kai moved forward step by step. Di Jiang and others followed him and slowly approached Duobao and others.
