Stronger from Earth

Hovering above Black and White Mountain, Wang Xuan surveyed all directions, seeing that the Mountain Protection Array of Immortal Martial Mountain had already been activated, with majestic energy and runes faintly visible.

Immortal Martial Mountain, shrouded by the Mountain Protection Array, resembled a layer of turtle armor, not to be shaken even slightly by those below Immortal rank.

A group of True Disciples rose into the air to examine the sudden situation.

"Qi, what happened?" Chen Qingniu, the closest one, flew over, his face full of confusion and seriousness.

As a True Disciple, Chen Qingniu knew the status and power of Immortal Martial Mountain. To force it to activate the Mountain Protection Array was the first time in fifty years.

Senior Sister Lin Xiyue gracefully arrived, as did Senior Brothers Zhou Wu and Wan Futu, quickly appearing alongside Chen Qingniu, looking towards Wang Xuan.

Though Wang Xuan ranked seventh, the youngest and last to enter, his strength and status were beyond what they could compare.

As an Immortal Martial Taoist, capable of leaving a seal amidst Heaven and Earth, a peerless expert of the Same Realm who could easily kill the Celestial Tier peak, Wang Xuan knew more.

Wang Xuan didn’t respond. His consciousness sensed the Heaven and Earth Seal within the Origin Space, a mysterious space where the seals of numerous Immortals had long gathered.

Utilizing the Heaven and Earth Seal in the Origin Space, no matter where Earth Civilization’s Immortals were, they could connect with other Immortals anytime and anywhere.

The seals of various realms united, at this moment, the seals left by the Immortals emitted a terrifying power of Half-Step Immortal limit, enough to strike down weaker Immortals.

Wang Xuan’s Half-step True Immortal seal quietly drew close, widened its eyes, and seriously listened.

Over twenty Immortals, shrouded in faint Immortal matter and fragments of rules, although their appearances were unclear, Wang Xuan still recognized a few based on individual characteristics.

The Demon Suppression True Monarch with Sword Qi surging to the sky, the Bodhisattva of Precious Light enveloped in Buddha’s Light, the Dragon Race Great Saint with a dragon shadow coiling, the Kunhuang Great Saint with a phoenix demeanor.

But no matter how he looked, Wang Xuan couldn’t find his family’s patriarch, the Martial Immortal who was renowned as the first in Earth Civilization.

"Four Realms - Celestial Divine Realm, Ancient Demon Realm, Earth Emperor Realm, Heroic Spirit Realm - Immortals threatening the Mother Star, ascending to several top forces, what on earth are they intending, and how should we handle it?"

America’s God of Wealth, holding a golden shining Golden Scepter, looked towards the Sky Pillars that jointly supported civilization.

The Forest God said: "Around Earth, already there are formidable enemies from Abyss Realm, Demon Realm, Spirit Race, and Mechanical Race. We’ve exhausted our efforts to ensure the smooth voyage of civilization’s ark. If adding four realms’ enemies now, the stability will be hard to maintain."

"The Four Realms have two True Gods, nearly ten Demigods, three hundred Immortals. If they intervene in Earth Civilization, they can easily disrupt our balance of contention with forces like Abyss Realm."

The towering figure from Slavic Mountain, with a giant axe at the waist, spoke with a powerful and strong voice.

Fortunately, in previous years, they had resolved issues with the Evolution Realm, Hell Realm, and Ten Thousand Beasts Realm. Otherwise, the situation would have been uncontrollable now.

"The Four Realms Envoys come with ill intentions, likely foes rather than friends. If we show weakness, we’ll be seen as easy to bully; but if too aggressive, we’ll offend them. How should we respond to win their strength?"

The newly ascended Yama Immortal seemed worried, unsure what to do. He also felt fortunate, as Alien Race Immortals did not descend upon the Yin San Region this time. Otherwise, it would have been hard for him to cope.

Cyan Emperor spoke confidently and calmly: "Five hundred years of the Era of Mythology, innumerable enemies we’ve encountered, yet civilization weathered the storms and arrived today. What have we relied on?

The absolute foundation of civilization competition is always strength. Any scheme or tactic, overt or covert, the basic support is always formidable power.

No matter what the Four Realms Envoys seek, we must show great strength to deter them and seize control of the discourse.

To make wolves retract their fangs and claws, becoming a docile partner, reliance isn’t on concession, but on deterrence!"

Unlike the gentle negotiation with Celestial Divine Realm Immortals, Cyan Emperor’s current stance was very hawkish.

He had invincible confidence, and a steadiness akin to the collapse of Mount Tai that didn’t change his expression, a temperament bred from repeated battles with Alien Race strongmen.

The Unparalleled Sword Immortal, Demon Suppression True Monarch said: "To turn enemies into friends, we must deter the Four Realms Envoys, this is necessary, thereby transforming crises into opportunities.

I foresee, the Four Realms indeed harbor ambition to divide Earth Civilization, but as long as our strength is ample, they too will retreat to cooperate as allies.

After all, we currently lack core interest conflicts with them, cooperation isn’t impossible."

The more than twenty Immortals present nodded in agreement, setting the tone for the Four Realms Envoys’ approach.

For this crisis, although all Immortals felt pressured, they weren’t panicked, let alone in despair.

Because each of them is a legend, an epic, a myth!

In under five hundred years, they’ve achieved Immortal Tao Fruit, forging their own paths, what Alien Race can compare? In the same realm battle, how many from Alien Race can rival?

This is their terrifying potential and the confidence source of Earth Civilization, given time, what can the strongest enemy do?

Wang Xuan quietly listened to this Supreme Council, learning many secrets.

Only then did he understand why the Immortals always seemed elusive, yet civilization’s development remained under their control.

It turns out, these supreme beings’ councils and discussions take place in Origin Space, not face-to-face in reality.

No matter the distance across light years, utilizing the Heaven and Earth Seal, these Immortals’ Wills can appear here anytime.

And the existence of Origin Space is enough to isolate any Alien Race, with strong Alien Race unable to enter, much less steal secrets.

For the Immortals, the Origin Space is not only their undying root, but also a platform for mutual communication and collaboration.

Of course, Wang Xuan can now join in on this platform too.

Regarding the Four Realms Envoys’ arrival, Wang Xuan knew the main decision and action stakeholders were these Immortals, but if capable, he’d do his best.

Until the council ended, Wang Xuan’s consciousness left the Heaven and Earth Seal of Origin Space.

As he opened his eyes, several gazes were fixed on him, awaiting his insights.

Wang Xuan told the Senior Brothers and Sisters: "The Four Realms Envoys from Celestial Divine Realm, Ancient Demon Realm, Earth Emperor Realm, Heroic Spirit Realm, have descended upon the top forces of the Mother Star, exerting intimidation.

The Celestial Divine Realm Immortals have just appeared at Immortal Martial Mountain. Our patriarch will handle this, Senior Brothers and Sisters can stay safely on Black and White Mountain."

Black and White Mountain holds treasures like the Qiankun Bag, Star Hall, and true-tier creatures like Chong the Thirty-Sixth and Void Python.

With the Senior Brothers and Sisters here, safety is more assured, and likewise, their presence means Lin Cheng, the children, and Wang Xuan’s family will be safer too.

"You’re leaving?" Chen Qingniu, most familiar with Wang Xuan, asked with a frown.

Wang Xuan nodded: "Today’s matter, I can contribute some strength, naturally I won’t stand by idly."

Among the Celestial Divine Realm envoys, there are not only four Immortals but also the Celestial Divine Realm’s prodigies.

Within the Li Family of Celestial where Cyan Emperor belongs, a celestial-tier woman from Celestial Divine Realm has been sparring with Li Daoming.

Those Immortals and Half-step Immortal, he can’t contend with, but facing peers’ prodigies? Wang Xuan is absolutely confident!

"Be safe." Chen Qingniu patted Wang Xuan’s shoulder, Wan Futu, Zhou Wu, and Senior Sister Lin also bade farewell solemnly.

Wang Xuan smiled: "It’s not like this is life and death parting, why be so solemn? I’m off."

He tore the space and stepped out, his figure disappearing.
