Floating Immortal Order-Chapter 280: Pre-Tribulation Stage

Even though the dozens of Clone Avatar stage Greater Lords who came to aid the Moon Ghost Sect were only from a small fraction of the forces from across the other three major regions, many still recognized the young man in azure before them.

Eventide Greater Lord glanced at the steel sword in the Azure Raiment Sword Sovereign's hand, his eyes revealing a hint of contemplation, yet he remained silent.

Shao Yanrou, an Eight-Avatar Greater Lord from the Qingyuan Spiritual World, gently shook her head and said, "Azure Raiment Sword Sovereign, I've heard of your reputation as wellchoosing to halt at the pre-tribulation stage for a hundred thousand years without crossing it is indeed admirable. However, you have misunderstood us on this matter."

Azure Raiment Sword Sovereign slightly raised his eyebrows, his handsome face becoming more solemn. His tone shifted slightly as he replied, "I would like to hear the details."

Shao Yanrou offered a bitter smile, "Heavenly Lord Mo Yu is unbending and allows no dissent. He once forcefully entered our Qingyuan Spiritual World. All the defenses we had accumulated over the years crumbled before this Divine Sea stage being. If we did not join the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance, we would have faced complete obliteration."

Turning to look at the Clone Avatar stage Greater Lords from other peak-level forces like the Profound Depth Spiritual World and the Yin Yang Daoist Sect, she continued, "Although we have not communicated in detail about this matter, I believe the remaining peak-level forces in the Dawndusk Territory and the Mang Mountain Territory have suffered similarly, without exception. Why else would our millenia-old celestial lands and peak-level sects bother to willingly submit and become subordinate to another sect?"

Profound Insight Greater Lordfrom the Profound Depth Spiritual World's Spirit Race nodded in agreement. "Heavenly Lord Mo Yu indeed visited our Profound Depth Spiritual World once."

Seeing the expressions on the faces of other Clone Avatar stage Greater Lords from the two Territories, it was clear that Shao Yanrou's words were true. Clenching the steel sword in his hand, Azure Raiment Sword Sovereign's killing intent surged as he coldly said, "How can someone with such deranged logic reach the Divine Sea stage and transcend the Heart Demon Heavenly Tribulation? His actions are no different from those of a madman."

Eventide Greater Lord's expression darkened. The golden-red sun projection behind him shone with a myriad of lights, enveloping Azure Raiment Sword Sovereign in its glow. "Azure Raiment, if you dare slander Heavenly Lord Mo Yu again, I will ensure your soul is utterly destroyed!"

Azure Raiment Sword Sovereign shook his sword, sending out a sword qi that dispersed the brilliant crimson light. He scoffed, "Heavenly Lord Mo Yu has ascended to the Divine Sea stage, so he can be considered a being of an entirely different realm. Why would he care about slander? Although the Heavenly Court has suddenly become isolated from the Human Realm, your Dawn Sunset Daoist Sect is now an enemy to all. With the people's hearts not with you, how can you talk about re-establishing order in the Central Region?"

Eventide Greater Lord pondered for a moment, but he suddenly smiled. "It's true that Heavenly Lord Mo Yu's actions have made the Dawn Sunset Daoist Sect the enemy of the world, and many aspects are indeed strange. Even I cannot comprehend his orders. But within a few hundred years, no other Divine Sea stage being will emerge. Regardless of whether Heavenly Lord Mo Yu is crazy or deranged, he remains the only Divine Sea stage being in the Central Region. Do you understand my point, Azure Raiment?"

Upon hearing this, Azure Raiment Sword Sovereign tightened his grip on his sword, falling silent for a moment. Although each peak-level force and overlord sect had produced a number of Divine Sea stage beings in the past, it had been a long time since anyone at the Divine Sea stage had actually unleashed their power, so the true combat power of those who had transcended the Heart Demon Heavenly Tribulation remained unknown.

However, the complete allegiance of the seven other peak-level forces from the Dawndusk Territory and the Mang Mountain Territory, aside from the Dawn Sunset Daoist Sect, hinted at the true terror of a Divine Sea stage being.

What was more terrifying was the erratic behavior of this sole Divine Sea being, leaving everyone guessing his thoughts and intentions. His actions, seemingly without motive or benefit to anyone, had thrown the Central Region into utter chaos. freewe(b)novel.com

Despite achieving the truly undying realm of the Divine Sea stage, Heavenly Lord Mo Yu relentlessly upended the previously established rules of the Central Region. He seemed to be totally unconcerned with convention or face, and was ready to extinguish anyone who defied him.

This feeling of powerlessness had not been felt by these lofty Clone Avatar stage Greater Lords for a long time. With the current state of the Central Region, no one could truly stand against Heavenly Lord Mo Yu.

With a sigh, Profound Insight Greater Lord lamented, "Pale Ghost, give in. The Moon Ghost Sect only has a little over a dozen Clone Avatar stage cultivators. What are you going to use to withstand the nearly full-blown assault of the Dawndusk Daoist Alliances fifty plus Clone Avatar stage Greater Lords?"

As for the remaining Clone Avatar stage and numerous Primordial Lord stage cultivators from the other three Territories, they were barely considered by him.

These individuals belonged to the forces from the other three Territories, and many of them were from the Profound Yin Territory, which neighbored the Moon Ghost Sect, but they were unlikely to truly intervene. They and the Moon Ghost Sect had always been mutually supporting each other, and they thought about supporting the Moon Ghost Sect, but upon learning the reality of the situation, their resolve to resist was thoroughly broken. They would only watch silently from the sidelines.

Surrounded by innumerable ghosts that flew about wildly, Pale Ghost Greater Lord released a concentrated ghostly qi.

A black ghost-controlling banner appeared in his hand, bringing with it sweeping gusts of black wind. His dark robe fluttered amidst the wind and dense ghostly qi as he laughed loudly, "How tragic! All of us from the Central Region are being forced to dance along to the tune of Heavenly Lord Mo Yu's ridiculous drama!"

The other Clone Avatar stage Greater Lords looked on with complex expressions, silently watching Pale Ghost Greater Lord.

Eventide Greater Lord, unwilling to waste more words, pressed, "Pale Ghost, I pity your 9-Avatar stage cultivation base. I ask you once more, does the Moon Ghost Sect surrender or not?"

Pale Ghost Greater Lord turned to the side, glancing at the other Clone Avatar stage Greater Lords of the Moon Ghost Sect. Among them, some were calm, while others wavered, clearly not all willing to see their hard-earned cultivation dissipate along with the sect's destruction.

"The Sect Master of our Moon Ghost Sect, along with Ghostly Destruction Greater Lord and Astral Origin Greater Lord, entered Heart Demon Heavenly Tribulation after accumulating enough foundation. It will take at most a few hundred to a thousand years for them to emerge from tribulation. Our Moon Ghost Sect has dominated the Profound Yin Territory for countless years as a peak-level sect. When have we ever suffered such humiliation before?" Pale Ghost Greater Lord said, his tone carrying a hint of finality. "The sect has invested countless resources and over a hundred thousand years to allow me to achieve my 9-Avatar stage cultivation base. Today, I am willing to fight to the death for the Moon Ghost Sect. Those among the Greater Lords who are unwilling may leave the sect now."

Clone Avatar stage Greater Lords certainly lived extremely long lives, but without ascending to the Divine Sea, their lifespans were still finite. Many did not reach the 9-Avatar stage within their natural lifespan and passed away without ever obtaining the qualifications to try and transcend the tribulation.
