Chapter 5 No Turning Back

Chapter 334 Ice Clan's Ambition

The Emperor sat high on the throne, his eyes like two vast celestial bodies, overlooking the five monarchs below. "What is the situation on the border?"

"Your Majesty,"

The Corpse Wither Monarch reported, "Our war with the human race is proceeding as normal."

After all, the battlefield intensity was limited since they hadn't escalated to the point of 'Cosmic Legend' level participation. Although Xu Jingming's interceptions were a deterrent, they also caused the Prison Clan to reduce their plundering frequency. The Prison Clan's casualties had even decreased somewhat. Of course, the plundering of the three universe domains was reduced even more.

"The other battlefields are not worth mentioning, but the war with the Ice Clan is a bit troublesome," said the Corpse Wither Monarch.

The Prison Clan's main opponents were the human race and the Ice Clan. As for other alien races, they were not worth mentioning.

Both the human race and the Ice Clan were massive groups ranked in the top five of the entire universe.

"What trouble?" The Emperor looked at him.

"Recently, traces of the Ice Clan have been discovered in the three universe domains of Bei Wu, Gu Chi, and Qian Ying. When we discovered them, they had already quietly slaughtered and occupied some planets. Some Ice Clan members are even living and multiplying on those planets," said the Corpse Wither Monarch. "The Ice Clan clearly wants to expand their invasion range."

"Invading three universe domains simultaneously?" The Emperor said, "Adding the previous two universe domains, the Ice Clan is attacking five of our universe domains?"

"Yes."

The Corpse Wither Monarch nodded. "I didn't dare to make a decision easily, so I have been contacting Your Majesty."

"This matter must be reported to the Ancestor," the Emperor frowned.

"I also reported it, but the Ancestor did not respond," said Corpse Wither. "Your Majesty, humans are, after all, a race that grew up in this universe, and the three high-dimensional beings of mankind are also very concerned about the safety of the race. But the Ice Clan is different. The great being of the Ice Clan is rumored to have come out of the abyss. He wouldn't care even if the entire Ice Clan was exhausted. So once a large-scale war breaks out, the war will be very tragic."

The Prison Clan was warlike.

Humans were unwilling to suffer mutually assured destruction with them, but the Ice Clan didn't care. The Ice Clan was much stronger than the Prison Clan.

The Emperor slowly said, "I will ask the Ancestor about this matter, and the Ancestor will decide how to deal with the Ice Clan!"

The five monarchs all nodded.

Once the Ancestor gave the order, all Prison Clans would not hesitate.

"Give me the resurrection list," the Emperor ordered.

"Your Majesty, this is the resurrection list." Corpse Wither respectfully presented a golden sheet of paper. The paper flew into the air, and the Emperor glanced at it remotely, then remembered it.

"Those with sufficient merit will be resurrected! Those without sufficient merit, only monarchs and those with high talent can be resurrected." The Emperor instantly made his selection, only selecting one-fifth of those on the list without sufficient merit.

For the Emperor, the burden of resurrection was still very great. If it wasn't necessary, he wouldn't bother to resurrect them.

"Rumble..."

Sounds echoed around them.

The five monarchs carefully observed as a vast, illusory river appeared, surging torrentially, causing the five monarchs, including Corpse Wither, to feel a tremor in their hearts.

When the Prison Clan Ancestor took action, the River of Time and Space was much calmer.

When the Emperor took action, the River of Time and Space was turbulent and intense, much more terrifying.

The Emperor remained seated, reaching out with his giant hands, scooping up amber-like figures from the illusory river.

The Emperor was very serious and cautious each time he scooped up a figure, and it lasted for more than five minutes before he finished scooping them all up.

These figures were retrieved from past nodes to the present, returning to reality, and naturally awakened one by one.

"Your Majesty," all the resurrected Prison Clan monarchs and lords respectfully saluted.

"Go."

The Emperor had a look of exhaustion in his eyes, and he waved his hand.

The five monarchs and the many resurrected monarchs and lords were all teleported out of this ancient wasteland.

The Emperor sat alone, pondering.

"The Ice Clan and the Void God Clan have been at war, yet they are also massively invading my Prison Clan?" The Emperor pondered. "What is that old guy from the Ice Clan thinking? A poor wretch who escaped from the abyss, who might be pinched to death by Gu Mo one day, yet he's so crazy!"

"Ask the Ancestor if there are other reasons behind this," the Emperor was very cautious.

Whoosh.

He instantly left this universe's spacetime. For high-dimensional beings, it was still somewhat oppressive within the real universe.

...

Outside the ancient wasteland, in a starry sky, the Prison Clan monarchs and lords all wore expressions of joy, after all, they had been resurrected.

Corpse Wither's gaze, however, fell on Mo You Monarch.

"Mo You, come with me," Corpse Wither ordered.

"Yes," the newly resurrected Mo You Monarch respectfully replied.

The two of them quickly left.

"I heard that Mo You lost that pair of eyes."

"Without that pair of eyes, his strength is not worth mentioning. His territory will probably be divided up soon."

The Prison Clan monarchs and lords discussed this and quickly left.

On a life planet.

Corpse Wither took Mo You for a walk; the entire planet was Corpse Wither's back garden.

"Your eyes lost control and began to be assimilated. You could have returned to the Prison Clan territory and committed suicide proactively to preserve that pair of eyes," said Corpse Wither. "But you frantically plundered, forcing the human race to constantly increase their efforts to surround and kill you. Were you seeking death?"

"Yes."

Mo You said.

"What were you thinking?" Corpse Wither looked at him.

"Either break through in madness, or die in madness," Mo You respectfully said. "When I die, that pair of eyes will also be taken away by the human race. That way, I will never be able to touch this pair of eyes again."

"I don't want to leave myself a way out. I want to completely cut off this path." Mo You looked at Corpse Wither. "Only by abandoning this pair of eyes, without its influence, can I be absolutely sober and impact Cosmic Legend."

Corpse Wither nodded. "But this way, your strength in the Prison Clan won't even be in the top five hundred."

"I hope to exchange for that 'Nightmare Skin' with merit," Mo You said. "I didn't dare to touch it before, fearing that the Nightmare Skin would affect the Nightmare Eyes, but now I want to observe it carefully."

"The Nightmare Skin is just a piece of skin. The Nightmare Force it contains is very weak, less than one-thousandth of the Nightmare Eyes," said Corpse Wither.

"I don't need to fuse it. I just want to watch it every day," Mo You said.

Corpse Wither looked at him and nodded. "Alright. Now that the Prison Clan's situation is deteriorating, our Prison Clan also needs new Cosmic Legends to be born. I am very optimistic about you." After all, there were very few Prison Clans whose mental strength reached the high dimension.

Corpse Wither valued every Prison Clan with high-dimensional mental strength.

With the Prison Clan Ancestor and the Emperor only descending occasionally, Corpse Wither was the most powerful being in the Prison Clan. He was also the de facto manager.

No longer fusing with high-dimensional objects, his strength couldn't even enter the top five hundred in the Prison Clan. The monarchs and lords who used to follow him had all left, following those more powerful Prison Clan monarchs.

Originally, Mo You Monarch's territory was very large, but now it was being quickly seized.

Mo You didn't care at all.

Take it, take it all.

"The taste of being looked down upon is really uncomfortable." For countless years, Mo You Monarch had been pursuing becoming stronger, and the dignity of the strong was something he cared very much about for countless years. But now that his strength had plummeted, his status had plummeted, and his dignity was being trampled on again and again.

Falling from the peak to the bottom of the valley, frustration, shame, anger, all kinds of emotions surged in his body.

Mo You Monarch had foreseen this day when he made his decision.

He also guessed that this taste would be very uncomfortable, forcing him to fuse with the eyes again. So he didn't leave himself a way out from the beginning.

"Without the influence of that pair of eyes, I am also more sober." Mo You Monarch sat on the throne, feeling that everything in the world was more real. He looked at the dark cyan Nightmare Skin in his palm, observing it intently.

Observing and understanding the Nightmare Force from another angle.

"I believe that before my death, I will be able to truly master the nightmare." Mo You Monarch didn't care about territory, didn't care about dignity, and even relied on his past high merits to lie low.

Only to truly master the Nightmare Force.

Either die in obscurity, or truly rise before the limit of his lifespan.

Tianmang Universe Domain.

Xu Jingming sat in his study, looking at the figure of his wife displayed on the light screen.

"Miao Miao, I will go back in a few days," Xu Jingming said with a smile.

"Jingming, you're finally coming back?" Li Miaomiao said in surprise, "I heard long ago that there are holidays after breaking through to become a tenth-order lifeform."

"It doesn't have much to do with the holiday," Xu Jingming said. "The main reason is that the Prison Clan's plundering in the three universe domains on the border has been greatly reduced, and it is mainly 'medium and large-scale plundering.' After Mo You Monarch's death, small-scale plundering has completely stopped. I haven't encountered it for half a year. If it is only large and medium-sized plundering… I only have one mission every one or two years."

"So after a mission, I can go back and rest for half a month." Xu Jingming said, "After a medium and large-scale plundering operation, it is generally impossible to have a second large-scale operation within a month or two."

In fact, even if plundering broke out.

It wouldn't take too long for Xu Jingming to rush from the Hunter Universe Domain to the Tianmang Universe Domain. Although he couldn't catch up with the first wave of interception, he could participate in the second and subsequent interceptions.

"In the future, every one or two years, I will go back for half a month," Xu Jingming said.

"Okay." Li Miaomiao was also very much looking forward to it. Although she could often meet in the virtual world, it was still different from meeting in reality.

"Okay, I still have something to do," Xu Jingming said.

"You're busy. Tell me in advance before you come back." After Li Miaomiao finished speaking, she turned off the communication.

Xu Jingming then got up.

"Is it my deterrence, or other reasons? The Prison Clan's small-scale plundering has completely stopped." Xu Jingming looked in a direction. "I have recently stabilized my strength, and it is time to go to the attached universe. Vice-Dean Chi Meng is very much in need of those fruits."

After all, he had promised Vice-Dean Chi Meng long ago.

With one step, Xu Jingming passed through spacetime from his study and arrived at the location of that attached universe.

"Buzz."

The seemingly ordinary universe starry sky concealed the 'High-Dimensional Gate' that Xu Jingming had personally built. He easily passed through the obstacles of the spacetime layer. The High-Dimensional Gate actively opened, allowing Xu Jingming to enter the attached universe.

Looking back at the High-Dimensional Gate behind him, which had a diameter of more than 300,000 kilometers, Xu Jingming stepped into the dark nothingness.

Flying in the dark nothingness, it didn't take long before Xu Jingming saw the fiery red world ahead.

In the fiery red world, volcanoes erupted with lava, reflecting the entire sky. Those six giant trees bore black-red fruits.

"First pick the fruits." Xu Jingming thought, and with a single thought, he got rid of the shackles of the spacetime in the attached universe.

Whoosh!

Although the structure of the spacetime layer in the attached universe was very strong, Xu Jingming was obviously much stronger than when he was a ninth-order source lifeform. He got rid of the shackles and came to the high-dimensional space.

Standing in the high-dimensional space, the fiery red world suddenly shrank a lot, like a model. He even saw other areas within the attached universe.
