Chapter 1457: Chapter 900: A Storm is Brewing

After the words fell.

Ye Fan and the others no longer spoke; instead, they all turned to Jiang Hui, waiting for the latter’s response.

The other party naturally knew about the Bizarre Clan; although their interactions were rare and could be counted on one hand, they should also understand the urgency of this matter.

“Thank you, Fellow Daoists, for the reminder!”

Although he had already known about this matter from Gu Chen, Jiang Hui was genuinely grateful to Ye Fan and the three for coming all the way to remind him, despite the hardship.

Each time they traversed time and space, it was also an invisible karma for the three of them. While it might not immediately manifest and affect anything, it was like undergoing a CT scan; once or twice wouldn’t matter much and wouldn’t show anything, but doing it too frequently could easily lead to radiation entering the body, causing some adverse events later on.

“You don’t need to thank us, sir. This is our duty. We are all on the same front, but we don’t know how you plan to respond?” Ye Fan waved his hand and said seriously.

How to face the invasion of the Bizarre Clan is the most critical issue.

They were not sure whether the Immortal Domain had been breached by the Bizarre Clan in past years.

Although judging by the result later–Emperor Huang Tian severed the ages with one sword–the Bizarre Clan should not have successfully invaded the Immortal Domain; otherwise, they wouldn’t exist.

Yet, inexplicably, the three of them had a feeling that according to the original trajectory, the Bizarre Clan should have never launched an attack on the Immortal Domain.

Otherwise, given the strength of the Bizarre Clan, the future at their time node should be exceptionally brutal, filled with blood and fire.

But in fact, the era they were in was relatively peaceful and even saw a myth-like golden era of Heavenly Pride.

This feeling was particularly strong when they came into contact with the Sea of Time.

The original karma seemed to have been disrupted.

“The Bizarre Clan has been incredibly detailedly mentioned by the three of you, a race beyond imagination. Should they really want to strike at me, the only method now is to respond accordingly: meet soldiers with generals, block water with earth, open paths in mountains, and build bridges over rivers!”

Jiang Hui pondered for a moment. He had interrogated Da Le, and though the latter’s mouth was tight regarding certain matters, under the immense pressure, some useful information was still obtained.

Firstly.

It didn’t come from that Ominous Plateau but from Above the Upper Heaven.

Secondly, it had ties with seven Phantom Immortal Emperor level bizarre beings–five of them were of similar strength to it, while the other two were old Phantom Immortal Emperors, much stronger, akin to the difference between newly ascended Immortal Kings and Fairy King Giants in the Immortal King field.

Lastly, combined with the intelligence Gu Chen brought back, it was likely that the Phantom Immortal Emperor attempting to cross the long river of years to assault the Immortal Domain was from Above the Upper Heaven.

Because that plateau, being above the supreme dimension, was lofty yet oh so remote, and their focus wouldn’t fall on a mere Immortal Domain.

If it didn’t involve the Bizarre Ten Ancestors, to be blunt, Jiang Hui was fearless, for no matter how many came, it would be the same to him.

The only difference would be if too many came and he slaughtered too many, it might easily alert the Phantom Primordial Ancestor.

But if it really reached that point, there’d be no retreat either. He could only stand firm, hoping to harvest experience points before alerting the Phantom Primordial Ancestor, to step right into the Sacrificial Path State.

This realm still belonged within the Immortal Emperor, yet it transcended the Immortal Emperor’s Realm, where each stage is a world apart.

Yet, that Da Le’s life probably wasn’t precious enough to shake that plateau, nor were those who came from Above the Upper Heaven of the same group.

In the end, though, there’s no guarantee of what might happen, for even to that plateau, bizarre creatures of the Immortal Emperor level are few.

He himself, without involving karma, wouldn’t be approached, but the Immortal Domain is his foundation, and Earth is also within the Immortal Domain, which cannot under any circumstances be abandoned.

While Jiang Hui was deep in thought, a gentle voice sounded.

“Is there anything where my three can be of help?” this time the Fierce Man asked.

For them, Jiang Hui’s act of saving Emperor Huang Tian was a huge favor, and if the Master of Liu Village really encountered any misfortune, even if the enemy came with overwhelming momentum, they must face it head-on.

Because in a certain sense, this was not just about the Master of Liu Village but also about some future affairs.

“Thank you for your kindness, Fierce Man.” Jiang Hui said calmly: “This matter pertains to me, why involve you three in it unnecessarily? You three reverse time to come here, inherently carrying karma, making things inherently difficult; if further involved, how will the future unfold under the weight of karma?”

Jiang Hui’s gaze shifted slightly, looking composed: “If the Bizarre Clan really wants to strike at me, I swear I’ll make them suffer an unbearable pain.”

As these words fell, the weather on the back mountain suddenly changed, and dense dark clouds gathered overhead, assembling endless thunder within.

There were roaring sounds, deafening.

“Crack…”

Web-like azure-blue lightning tore through the dim night.

The next moment, a torrential downpour had already begun, like billions of arrows, astoundingly intense.

The rain was gentle, without a chill. The three let the rain fall on them, drenching their clothes, splashing a dense spray of water.
