Chapter 7 The Envoy of All Things

Boom, boom, boom~~~

Heaven and earth split apart.

Pangu God, clad in a beast-skin skirt, and the 'Immeasurable Demon God' in armor were locked in fierce combat.

The 'Ten Thousand Immortal Annihilation Formation' of Nüwa's camp and the 'Two Realms Tribulation Dragon Birth and Annihilation Formation' of the Wujian Gate launched long-range attacks from afar, influencing the entire battlefield.

Long-range attacks, defense, support.

The Seven Luminaries Celestial Gods and the puppets moved with extreme agility, disrupting the situation.

That wilderness was sometimes shattered, revealing the void outside, and sometimes condensed again.

Ji Ning watched nervously, 'When there are many Celestial Gods and True Immortals, it's truly terrifying. As long as one side makes a mistake, it could lead to collapse.'

'The commanders on both sides are also formidable. Under the command of Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, the great formations and the hundred-plus Seven Luminaries Celestial Gods formed a perfect whole, cooperating flawlessly. But Demon Heart Dao Ancestor attacked like a madman, and once he nearly destroyed a Seven Luminaries Celestial God.'

Indeed.

Up to now, not a single Seven Luminaries Celestial God on Nüwa's side had died! This showed how formidable Xuanyuan's command was, leaving almost no openings.

'Withdraw the troops,' Xuanyuan ordered.

'Rumble~~~'

Under Xuanyuan's direction, the army of Nüwa's camp began to retreat in an orderly manner, giving the enemy no opportunity.

The first preliminary clash thus came to an end.

……

In battles of this level, even the madwoman 'Demon Heart Dao Ancestor' was very calm, because a single moment of carelessness could doom the entire war. In fact, wars at this level were more about who made fewer mistakes! Although Demon Heart Dao Ancestor was known for offense, in reality she rarely made mistakes in commanding troops. She believed that 'offense is the best defense.'

Under her command, the attacks of the Wujian Gate put immense pressure on Xuanyuan.

But……

Xuanyuan was clearly more experienced than her. The coordination of his troops was more perfect, like flowing clouds and water, leaving no openings.

In the blink of an eye, the two sides had clashed three times, and the war had lasted over a month.

……

'Uncle-Master, this won't do. In every clash, our losses are greater than theirs. In the short term, it's not obvious, but if we fight for two or three years, our weakness will become very apparent,' said the Black-Clad God King, standing beside the petite woman in purple, his heart trembling slightly.

In the eyes of the woman in purple seemed to lie an endless sea of blood. In terms of slaughter, she was the foremost of the Wujian Gate, a true demon among demons.

'Hmm?' The woman in purple glanced at the Black-Clad God King.

'I'm just worried,' the God King quickly said.

'You're right.'

The woman in purple lightly tapped the armrest with her right hand, which was covered in a white, crystalline glove. 'In all my campaigns in the Wujian Chaos World, I've never encountered a commander as skilled as this. In battles of this level, the fighting is so swift. Changes happen in an instant, yet he can calculate all those changes and coordinate perfectly... No wonder Xuanyuan defeated Shennong in ancient times.'

'Then what should we do?' the God King asked quickly.

The only ones in the Wujian Gate who could make the God King so obedient were the Myriad Demon Lord, Huanmu Master, and Demon Heart Dao Ancestor.

'We must win this battle.'

The woman in purple said, 'If we lose this battle, the subsequent war will be far more difficult, requiring much more effort, and we might not even win the final struggle for fate.'

The God King muttered to himself, 'No shit, everyone knows that.'

'Send an Envoy of All Things,' the woman in purple ordered.

'Envoy of All Things?'

The Black-Clad God King was startled and couldn't help saying, 'Deploy the Envoy of All Things now? But this was prepared for the final decisive battle for fate.'

'Send it, or we won't win,' the woman in purple said calmly.

'Alright, but this matter still requires the Myriad Demon Lord's approval,' the Black-Clad God King quickly said.

'Go quickly,' the woman in purple frowned, a hint of murderous intent leaking from her eyes, which made the Black-Clad God King tremble with fear. Having grown up in the Wujian Chaos World, even as a Dao Ancestor, he still feared Demon Heart Dao Ancestor. She was a madwoman. Others might treat him, the God King, as the nominal leader of the Wujian Gate and as the disciple of the Heart Demon Lord, but this madwoman would even dare to attack the Heart Demon Lord, let alone him.

……

Myriad Demon Realm.

On a solitary mountain.

A man in a red robe with green hair sat atop the mountain, gazing at the endless void. His eyes had long pierced the membrane of the world, seeing the infinite void beyond.

'Whoosh.' A figure materialized beside him—the Black-Clad God King.

'Demon Lord,' the God King said respectfully.

'What is it?' The Myriad Demon Lord glanced at him.

'Uncle-Master's side has little chance of victory. If this continues, they will likely lose. Uncle-Master sent me to request an Envoy of All Things,' the God King quickly said.

The Myriad Demon Lord frowned, then said, 'In that case, go find Wu Xiao and bring one to Demon Heart.'

'Yes.' The God King respectfully departed.

The Myriad Demon Lord gazed at the endless void and murmured to himself, 'I really wish I could go back to the old days, hiding behind Heart Demon and Huanmu... But now I'm forced to stand out, and they call me Myriad Demon Lord, Demon Lord? Being the Wind Demon was far more carefree than being a Demon Lord. I wonder what this war will become. Although Nüwa has left, before she left, she left behind three great clan-protecting formations. Who knows how powerful those three formations really are.'

'If it really comes to it, I'll save as many as I can and leave the Three Realms,' the Myriad Demon Lord shook his head.

He did not like power.

In the era of the Wujian Chaos World, he had kept a low profile. Back then, the most prominent were Heart Demon Lord, Huanmu Master, and Demon Heart Dao Ancestor. No one paid attention to this 'Wind Demon,' who was also of 'Ancestral Demon' origin. Many great powers of the Wujian Chaos World even thought that the Wind Demon relied only on his background and had made little progress in strength.

They merely respected him as one of the Ancestral Demons.

The Wind Demon didn't care; he enjoyed his freedom. But the war of the ancient cataclysm was truly tragic. His old brothers and friends died one by one. The Myriad Things Lord was too ruthless, wanting to destroy both the Wujian and Pangu Chaos Worlds in one fell swoop. Nüwa was even more terrifying, directly breaking through to a new level, sweeping all sides, and even the fearsome Myriad Things Lord was killed.

He had to unleash all his strength, and under the threat of death, he even broke through again, causing Nüwa to be unable to catch up.

After a long, lonely time in the chaos, he returned.

'Actually, I just wanted a place to live in peace,' the Myriad Demon Lord shook his head, but he was forcibly elevated to the height of 'Demon Lord' by the survivors of the Wujian Gate, becoming the de facto supreme leader of the Wujian Gate.

'What exactly is this great calamity? That Heart Demon is scheming... and there seems to be something else...' The Myriad Demon Lord frowned.

Ever since he escaped from Nüwa and broke through in strength, his sensitivity to fate was probably the best in the Three Realms. He vaguely sensed the terror of this great calamity.

……

Wu Xiao the Celestial Immortal stood there, pointing at a towering, dark-red puppet resembling an ape, with flames swirling around it: 'Take it away.'

The Black-Clad God King swept his gaze over the surrounding Envoys of All Things, his heart itching.

'Remember, have the best Celestial God command it,' Wu Xiao the Celestial Immortal instructed. 'Strictly speaking, a Dao Ancestor should command it, but even so, this Envoy of All Things can exert strength comparable to a top-tier Dao Ancestor.'

'Understood,' the Black-Clad God King nodded quickly.

Back then, the Myriad Things Lord led a group of Envoys of All Things, which directly attacked leaders at the level of the Daoist and Buddhist sects, with terrifying and immense power.

Now, with a Celestial God commanding it, it could still match a top-tier Dao Ancestor.

'Also, tell Demon Heart to be extremely careful not to let Nüwa's camp capture this Envoy of All Things,' Wu Xiao the Celestial Immortal sneered. 'I'm afraid that Nüwa's camp might be shameless and have leaders at the level of the Three Sovereigns or the Daoist and Buddhist sects suddenly strike and steal this Envoy of All Things.'

'Don't worry. Uncle-Masters Demon Heart and Huanmu, as well as the Demon Lord, are all watching this war. The True Gods and Dao Ancestors on Nüwa's side have no chance,' the Black-Clad God King said.

'By the way, has Ji Ning joined the battle?' Wu Xiao the Celestial Immortal pressed.

'No,' the Black-Clad God King shook his head.

'Pity,' Wu Xiao the Celestial Immortal said, unwilling to give up.

He really wanted to kill Ji Ning. Although his mind was almost entirely on puppets, the girl he had poured his feelings into had died, so of course he hated Ji Ning. Even though Ji Ning was only retaliating against an assassination, Wu Xiao the Celestial Immortal couldn't care less about that.

'Don't worry. As soon as Ji Ning dares to fight, I will ask Uncle-Master Demon Heart to 'take care' of him,' the Black-Clad God King smiled. 'Master, I'll take my leave now.'

'Go, go,' Wu Xiao the Celestial Immortal nodded.

The Black-Clad God King waved his hand, collected the Envoy of All Things, and left the Myriad Demon Realm for the Zhuolu Grand World.
