Ch. 1720 - Divine Court, Heavenly Eye, Earthly Ear

As the True Martial Progenitor’s words fell, there was no domineering blade intent, nor any arrogance.

They were simply plain, ordinary words.

I am establishing a sect here. Whether you agree or not, you must make way.

As for the consequences, the True Martial Progenitor did not say them aloud.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, the demonic beasts of the Myriad Beasts Forest were thoroughly enraged.

Roars echoed without end.

Qiongqi howled in fury. Ice Phoenixes spread their wings across the sky.

Void Dragons shuttled through space itself, lightning and thunder flashing.

Ancient colossal beasts stomped forth, shaking the earth.

Beastly might surged, and in an instant, heaven and earth darkened.

This place was the paradise of demonic beasts.

They had lived here for countless ages, and now humans dared to occupy it without even offering a greeting.

It was easy to imagine how many demonic beasts had been provoked.

Some of them even spoke.

Their voices were like rolling thunder, shaking the heavens.

“Humans, this is not a place you should come.”

“That’s right. Get lost. Don’t think you can act recklessly just because you have some ability. The Myriad Beasts Forest will forever belong to us demonic beasts.”

“So many flies buzzing in my ear...” the True Martial Progenitor said, rubbing his ear.

He snapped his finger.

With a thunderous boom, a world-destroying force exploded within the Myriad Beasts Forest.

In less than a second, trillions of roaring demonic beasts screamed in agony.

“A-ancestor, hold back a bit! If you sink this forest, how are we supposed to use it...?” San Dao said with a bitter smile.

Yet these demonic beasts were stubborn.

Such an attack not only failed to intimidate them, it enraged them even further, their roars growing louder.

“You must die!”

“We, the beast race, do not submit!”

“The beast race will never bow!”

Hearing this, the True Martial Progenitor shook his head slightly.

He seemed a bit weary.

At this moment, he extended his right hand.

His movement was not fast, but in the eyes of others, that single hand sealed off tens of thousands of miles of surrounding space.

No being could move. All were suppressed.

Immediately afterward, the True Martial Progenitor brought his hand down.

First, he slapped the howling Qiongqi flying away with a single strike.

Then, with another motion, he entwined the Void Dragon and Ice Phoenix together and tossed them into the void.

As for the ancient colossal beast, a single finger pierced straight through its brow, and it collapsed heavily to the ground.

In an instant, dust filled the air, and countless giant trees were crushed.

When all the beasts of the Myriad Beasts Forest witnessed this scene, the once-deafening roars fell silent.

“So the beast race never submits, unless it’s beaten up?” Xu Zimo found it somewhat amusing.

“Our establishing a sect in the Myriad Beasts Forest will not affect your lives,” San Dao said as he stepped forward.

At this moment, he played the role of the peacemaker.

“Our True Martial Progenitor has set a rule. Our disciples will not harm the beast race. We won’t invade each other. How about that?”

Hearing San Dao’s words, some elders of True Martial Sacred Ground were displeased.

They asked in confusion, “San Dao, why be polite with them? Anyone who disagrees, just cut them down. Are we really afraid of them?”

“San Dao is leaving a way out,” the True Martial Progenitor thought to himself.

“We will eventually go and defy the heavens. Leaving such a large True Martial Sacred Ground here, San Dao doesn’t feel at ease.”

“That’s right. Don’t you think these demonic beasts are the perfect gatekeepers?” San Dao said with a smile.

The few above exchanged a few brief words.

But for the demonic beasts below, it was pure torment.

Submit or die.

That was the question.

“If we don’t interfere with each other, can you guarantee it?” a demonic beast finally wavered and asked.

After all, no one wanted to die.

Death was always the last resort.

“We’re very sincere. Otherwise, today we could simply slaughter all the demonic beasts in the Myriad Beasts Forest. What then?” San Dao said calmly, mixing kindness with threat.

Hearing this, all the demonic beasts ultimately reached a consensus.

“We are willing to coexist peacefully.”

“Dealing with smart people is always easier,” San Dao smiled.

At that moment, countless demonic beasts began retreating from the depths of the Myriad Beasts Forest.

They ceded this vast area to the True Martial Sacred Ground.

The True Martial Progenitor did not hesitate. He waved his hand.

The entire True Martial Mountain shifted through space.

It finally settled down and took root here.

After True Martial Mountain descended, the True Martial Progenitor waved his hand again.

The void was sealed.

All heavenly secrets were concealed.

At that moment, the major powers watching True Martial Sacred Ground felt as if their vision suddenly went dark.

No traces remained at all.

“So they’ve finally established themselves,” someone murmured.

“For our Grand Desolate Heaven, I wonder whether this is good or bad.”

“Good or bad depends on fate. Besides, why should we be anxious? Plenty of others are more anxious than us.”

“You mean… the Primal God Race?”

The Primal God Race ruled Grand Desolate Heaven. Would the arrival of True Martial Sacred Ground bring conflict with them?

Would it affect the Primal God Race’s ruling order?

Such questions were a delight for many to watch unfold.

If True Martial Sacred Ground and the Primal God Race fought, no one knew how many people would secretly cheer.

Naturally, many continued to pay close attention to how things would develop.

…

At this moment, within the Divine Court.

The Divine Court was located in the skies of the Upper Heavens.

This statement was accurate, yet not entirely.

The Divine Court possessed an ancient divine mountain.

This divine mountain could descend into the earth, dive into the sea, and rise into the heavens.

One could say that as long as it was within the Upper Heavens, there was nowhere the divine mountain could not go.

Even forbidden lands and perilous regions could be crossed by this mountain.

Yet the divine mountain was usually elusive and untraceable.

It was said that upon the divine mountain resided two ancient beings.

Heavenly Eye and Earthly Ear.

They sat atop the mountain, observing every movement within Grand Desolate Heaven.

No matter what happened in this world, or who it involved, nothing could escape the observation of Heavenly Eye and Earthly Ear.

But at this moment, when the True Martial Progenitor concealed everything, no matter how Heavenly Eye looked, he could not see what was happening inside the Myriad Beasts Forest.

Earthly Ear listened intently, yet heard nothing.

Everything seemed completely cut off.

They rarely encountered such a situation.

The Divine Court had already been highly wary of True Martial Sacred Ground and had assigned these two to monitor them constantly.

Now that things had reached this point, the two hurried into the depths of the divine mountain to report.

…

Upon the divine mountain stood an enormous and magnificent hall.

This hall was called High Heaven Hall.

At this moment, within High Heaven Hall, the gods stood in rows, immortals raised their heads, and the Primal God Overlord sat upon the high throne.

The scene was solemn and dignified.

At the side, divine envoys were reporting on the situation in Grand Desolate Heaven.

The Primal God Overlord was like an immortal emperor holding court.

Each report was akin to a formal audience.

Essentially, major events and notable individuals within Grand Desolate Heaven were all reported here.

Their purpose was twofold.

First, to maintain the Primal God Race’s transcendent status.

Second, to maintain the balance of Grand Desolate Heaven.

Although the Primal God Overlord appeared lofty and exalted, in truth he was extremely busy, with endless and tedious affairs every day.

At this moment, Heavenly Eye and Earthly Ear rushed in hurriedly.

“So flustered. What do you think you’re doing?” a Dao Lord beside them scolded coldly.

The two knew they had been disrespectful.

They did not dare say much, only replying, “There has been a change regarding True Martial Sacred Ground.”
