Chapter 380: Chapter 302 Where is Laozi?

The Divine Realm’s army was eyeing the Vast Wilderness from outside, each deity radiating a gleam of divine light, incredibly sacred.

By contrast, the Vast Wilderness appeared dilapidated and bleak, its presence far from matching the opponent’s.

This bolstered the Divine Realm’s confidence in their conquest of this realm even further.

The Blood Slaughter Divine King had just made a fool of himself and could hardly save face. He coldly said to the Saints of the Vast Wilderness, "I give you a chance to surrender, otherwise once we breach the barrier, the Vast Wilderness will face the extinction of all living beings!"

Lu Ya sneered, "All this nonsense, come in and see for yourself who lives and who dies."

The other Saints of the Vast Wilderness were also united in enmity, swearing to struggle against the enemy to the end.

"Resisting to the last," Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, gently shook his head, then added, "If not now, when will you take action?"

As the words fell, the faces of all the Saints in the Vast Wilderness changed.

Jieyin immediately brought forward thousands of golden lotuses, each with a Buddha seated atop, charging toward the Saints.

"Jieyin...you actually betrayed the Vast Wilderness?" Laozi exclaimed in disbelief.

"Jieyin, the Vast Wilderness has always treated the Buddha Sect generously, why would you betray us?" Nu Wa demanded.

"Betray? Generous?" Jieyin scoffed with a sneer, "After so many years, the Buddha Sect has been trapped in the impoverished West, constantly suppressed with no hope of revival. Is this your generosity?

Open your eyes and see, the Divine Emperor of the Divine Realm has promised me that if I join the Divine Realm, the Vast Wilderness will be mine to command in the future!

Who truly has been generous to me?"

The faces of the Saints of the Vast Wilderness turned unsightly; although they knew Jieyin was acting, his words had the ring of heartfelt truth.

"Seeking death!" Lu Ya’s eyes were fierce as he took action, a golden divine radiance shooting toward Jieyin.

"Save me!" Instead, Jieyin made a quick escape, shouting loudly as he flew towards the heavens. A myriad of Buddhas simultaneously waved their hands, slicing open a fissure in the barrier of the Vast Wilderness.

Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, also took action at the same time, a single palm strike forcing Lu Ya back.

Seizing the opportunity, Jieyin flew out of the Vast Wilderness, arriving in front of Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, and obsequiously bowed, "Thank you, Divine King. May I ask for your honored name?"

Although the Saints of the Vast Wilderness knew Jieyin was acting, witnessing his demeanor still stirred in them the urge to hammer him to death.

Because to them, it felt like he truly wished to do so all along!

"I am Jiang Yuan. You have done well and made a great contribution to our Divine Realm," Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, said with a smile, then turned to look at the many Saints within the Vast Wilderness, "Saint Jieyin knows the times. The opportunity is now in front of you. It’s up to you whether you can seize it. There’s still time to join the Divine Realm."

The Saints’ expressions darkened.

"Divine King Jiang Yuan, I was the first to join the Divine Realm!" Jieyin hastily said, as if deeply afraid the other Saints would usurp his position.

"Rest assured, I am well aware," Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, said with a nod and a smile, then turned again to the Saints of the Vast Wilderness, "As long as you join the Divine Realm, you can not only save your lives but also receive support from our Divine Realm to break through your current cultivation levels.

I hope you can make the right choice. Otherwise, when the calamity strikes, don’t regret it!"

As his words fell, his face suddenly became imposing, an awesome divine might about to engulf the entire Vast Wilderness.

At the same time, the countless divine troops outside the Vast Wilderness also raised a war cry, ready to trample everything.

The expressions of the Saints of the Vast Wilderness became even uglier, seemingly intimidated by the enemy’s strength.

Liu Xiu, the Human King, shouted, "Do you think we, the Saints of the Vast Wilderness, are as spineless as Jieyin? Even if we are gravely injured, even in death, we will not submit to the Divine Realm!"

Laozi’s gaze was piercing, "Jieyin is the shame of the Vast Wilderness, and he will not meet a good end!"

Jieyin’s heart skipped a beat; he felt that Laozi was not just acting, so he said to Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, "Divine King, since these people won’t appreciate our gesture, let’s capture them all at once!"

Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, looked towards the Saints of the Vast Wilderness and asked, "Saint Jieyin, where is Tai Qing, the Laozi?"

"Tai Qing Laozi?" Jieyin pondered before replying, "He is the most mysterious of our Vast Wilderness Saints. After our battle with Hong Jun, he was also seriously injured—but since then, we have not seen a trace of him."

Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, frowned momentarily; the Divine Realm’s assault on the Vast Wilderness had three objectives, one of which was for the Primordial Source of the Dao of Artifacts.

Then Jieyin confidently added, "However, I am certain that Tai Qing Laozi must still be within the Vast Wilderness!"

At these words, Jiang Yuan’s brows relaxed, and then indifferently, he commanded, "Gods, take down the Vast Wilderness!"

At this command, several Divine Kings behind him immediately led the divine troops, entering the Vast Wilderness through the fissure created by Jieyin.

Whoosh!

The abyssal fissure widened further, and the colorful light shield formed by the collective force of the Saints from the Three Realms – Heaven, Earth, and Humanity – eventually collapsed, dissipating into the chaos of the void.

Facing all this, the Saints of the Vast Wilderness took on the fight.

"The Vast Wilderness is my place of enlightenment, and no one shall take it away!" Hong Jun coldly declared. Above his head, the Creation Jade Disk spread the Power of Laws in all directions.

The divine troops were immediately decimated, the Quasi-Saint generals unable to withstand a single Law’s power and vanishing in an instant.

Seeing this, the Blood Slaughter Divine King wanted to take action to regain face, but someone was faster.

"Do not linger in combat, give it your all, quick battle to quick decision!" Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, ordered.

"Yes!" The Blood Slaughter Divine King could only relent and turned to confront the other Saints of the Vast Wilderness.

At that moment, Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, was already clashing with Hong Jun.

Both were Saint Kings and Daluo Golden Immortals of the Mixed Yuan category, and their first clash had not determined a victor. Now was the time to see who would triumph!

Jiang Yuan, the Divine King, held aloft a snow-white Divine Spear that emitted the aura of an Innate Supreme Treasure, and it seemed as if the very fabric of space and time was quivering.
