The Rebirth of the Immortal Emperor: I am the Lord

Chapter 645: Chess piece - cannon fodder -!

In the center of the Northern Wasteland Forbidden Land, on the top of a giant peak, facing the three former emperors Gongshu, Xuanqing, and Qiu Yu, Ye Tian said calmly: "I heard from you three that your main purpose of coming to the Northern Wasteland from the Central Sky City is to summon geniuses to enter the extraterritorial battlefield outside the Central Sky City to participate in the trial. Now the Northern Wasteland has been basically stabilized, and everything is on track. After much deliberation, for the sake of the fairy world and the human race, I have decided to go...!"

Immortal Emperor Gongshu, Immortal Emperor Xuanqing, and Immortal Emperor Qiuyu all looked stern upon hearing this. Their faces changed drastically, and a trace of shock flashed in their eyes. "Holy Lord, you must not do this!"

Seeing the reactions of the three people, Ye Tian frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice, "Isn't this the real purpose of your trip to the Northern Wilderness? Why are you trying to stop me from going now? Why?"

"Holy Lord, you don't know! Before, we were a little anxious to complete the mission of the Central Sky City Sect as soon as possible. Later, under your inspiration, we finally woke up. In fact, the sect ordered us to go to the Northern Wilderness to gather talents to participate in the trial of the outer battlefield is not as simple as it seems--!"

Then, the three of them told the dark secrets of what happened in the outer battlefield, how Central Sky City stopped fighting and made peace, how they sent elite disciples to the outer battlefield again, how they returned with wings and almost died, how the major sects let geniuses without background die, etc. At this moment, the hearts of the three people were like a heavy haze, covering their faces, and their voices were low, helpless and full of worry.

“Holy Lord, the battlefield outside the domain, if it was in the past, it was indeed the best place for countless geniuses to train. Although it was also full of crises and dangers, it also provided countless opportunities. Many people even gained great fortune there, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it could make people soar to the sky.

However, just half a year ago, something unexpected happened. Countless talents from Central Sky City who went to the battlefield outside the domain to train seemed to be almost wiped out overnight! According to one or two survivors who escaped back, that night, the sky of the battlefield outside the domain seemed to be shrouded in strange blood clouds, and the devilish aura was so thick that it seemed as if countless horrible wronged souls were roaring. The cultivators of our human race suffered an unprecedented terrorist attack under the conspiracy of countless demons, monsters, alien races outside the domain, and unknown creatures...! For a time, the entire battlefield outside the domain became a slaughterhouse for the disciples of Central Sky City!

Later, after the leaders of the major sects in Central Tiancheng learned of this information, they finally stopped their long-standing internal struggles, stopped fighting, and quickly reached a consensus to organize the major forces and independent elites to go there in an attempt to find out the truth, avenge the dead genius disciples, and regain control of the battlefield outside the domain. However, behind this decision, there seemed to be more complicated motives and calculations, as if it was all under the control of a mastermind behind the scenes.

As the major forces organized the elites and independent masters who were eligible to enter the extraterritorial battlefield to enter the extraterritorial battlefield again, they were full of ambition and fighting spirit, but they soon found out with horror that this place was no longer the trial place full of opportunities and challenges. Today, the extraterritorial battlefield has been shrouded by a thick layer of dark clouds, and the breath of blood and death is everywhere. The demons, monsters, alien races and those unknown creatures seem to have been blessed by some kind of power and have become more brutal and cunning.

What is even more shocking is that there seems to be some kind of strange tacit understanding and cooperation between these forces. They seem to be jointly implementing an ulterior conspiracy, and this conspiracy may be the root cause of the brutal extermination of the disciples of Central Sky City.

As expected, almost none of the 100,000 elite monks who entered the extraterritorial battlefield survived. Only a few escaped in a panic. Their temperaments had changed drastically. Their eyes were empty and dull, as if their souls had been completely extracted, leaving only their bodies trembling.

The people who escaped kept repeating fragmented sentences, describing the horrifying and terrifying scenes on the battlefield: in the darkness, countless invisible hands were tearing their companions apart, dragging them into the endless abyss; in the sky, huge shadows were hovering, emitting heart-pounding howls, and every dive was accompanied by the screams and falls of the monks; on the ground, strange totems and runes flickered, releasing destructive power, turning areas into scorched earth.

What is even more frightening is that these survivors mentioned a curse called "Soul Devourer". It is said that this is an ancient and evil forbidden magic that can corrode the spiritual consciousness and soul of the monks, turning them into walking corpses who only know how to kill. And the souls of those monks who failed to escape may have been devoured by this power and become nutrients for those unknown creatures.

However, although the major forces were shocked by this unexpected change, most of them chose to remain silent and wait and see. In order to preserve their own strength, the major forces were reluctant to send their talented disciples to that place of death.

As these shocking news spread back to Central Sky City, the entire Central Sky City was shaken. The top leaders of the major sects held an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures. However, facing such a strange situation and powerful enemies, they felt unprecedented powerlessness and confusion.

Especially among the monks sent to the outer battlefield this time, almost everyone knew an unacceptable truth. That is, Central Sky City was sending elite disciples to the battlefield on the surface, but in fact it was cleaning up the sect and sending those monks who were dissatisfied with the oppression of the sect or had no backing or background to rely on into the tiger's mouth. Most of them became cannon fodder on the outer battlefield, and almost no one survived. "

All of a sudden, public resentment was boiling, complaints were everywhere, and the reputation of all major forces in the Central Sky City among the people plummeted, their faith collapsed, and they could no longer be respected as before, and the grand occasion of being revered by everyone was never to be seen again.

As these rumors spread, the entire Central Sky City became more turbulent, and every corner seemed to be filled with anxiety and indignation. Some monks were full of doubts and dissatisfaction with the major forces. Under such circumstances, although the major forces were not weak, they could no longer unite the people, and no monk was willing to make sacrifices in vain, because they didn't know who they were dying for.

Therefore, after this incident, the major forces in Central Sky City could no longer gather strength, and no cultivators were willing to fight for it. However, all the high-level officials in Central Sky City knew that the extraterritorial battlefield was crucial to the safety of Central Sky City and even the entire fairy world. It was like a natural barrier between the fairy world and those evil alien races outside the domain. If the human race lost power in the extraterritorial battlefield, those evil alien races outside the domain would even use the extraterritorial battlefield as a springboard to invade the fairy world. At that time, it would inevitably bring a fatal threat to the fairy world.

Although the major forces in Central Heaven City are not united, they also know the importance of the extraterritorial battlefield to the safety of the immortal world. Therefore, in the dilemma that no one in Central Heaven is willing to fight in the extraterritorial battlefield, the top leaders of the major forces came up with this strategy of summoning talented cultivators from the four great wastelands. That is, without the knowledge of the four great wastelands, let us go to the places where the four great wastelands belong to summon the cultivation geniuses who are eligible to enter the extraterritorial battlefield to resolve the danger of the extraterritorial battlefield——!

"Please understand, Holy Lord. The reason we dissuade you is because we know that the dangers of the battlefield outside the domain are beyond imagination. It is full of dangers and conspiracies. Even if you have great abilities, you may still make the same mistakes again..."

“Moreover, this is all a scam carefully planned by those big guys in Central Sky City. They just want to take advantage of the weakness of the cultivators from the Four Wildernesses who are temporarily unaware of the situation and their eagerness to stand out and seek to join the major forces in Central Sky City. They trick the cultivators from the Four Wildernesses into the battlefield outside the domain to resist the impossible victory.” When the three said this, their tone was full of earnestness and worry.

“In fact, they are just treating the cultivators from the Four Great Wastelands as pawns and cannon fodder…!”
