Chapter 2711: Never Pursue a Cornered Enemy

Chapter 2711: Chapter 2711: Never Pursue a Cornered Enemy

The unluckiest one should be the Carefree Demon Emperor.

Previously controlled by the Heaven Devouring Great Emperor, his mind hadn’t fully recovered, causing him to react a bit slower than the other three top-tier Immortal Emperors. The Five Elements Origin Qi Cauldron struck him, and after destroying his Emperor’s Instruments, it collided with him, leaving him severely injured.

A severely injured Emperor Realm Expert, entering the perilous Endless Space, simply couldn’t withstand the tearing force of the intense astral wind.

Therefore, the fate of the Carefree Demon Emperor could well be imagined.

As for the Red Lotus Immortal Emperor and the other three top-tier Immortal Emperors, although their Emperor’s Instruments were destroyed and their bodies didn’t suffer severe injuries, they wouldn’t fare well while escaping from the Endless Space either.

Moreover, since their Emperor’s Instruments were destroyed, recreating one wouldn’t be easy for them.

Thus, it would take a very long time for them to restore their strength to its peak.

And by the time they recover their strength, Fang Bai himself will have become vastly different, making it even more impossible for them to reach him.

So, in the future within this Immortal Realm, or even across the Three Realms, Fang Bai will have no more opponents.

For Fang Bai, the only potential threat remains the Heaven Devouring Great Emperor.

The moment a few Emperor Realm Experts alongside the Red Lotus Immortal Emperor fled, it instantly triggered a chain reaction. Dragon Taming Emperor, Thunder Immortal Emperor, and Ice River Empress—these three top-tier Immortal Emperors—also tore through space to escape.

During their escape, under attacks from several Immortals of the Emperor’s Palace, they all suffered some injuries to varying degrees.

At this point, the six top-tier Immortal Emperors, who had charged towards the Emperor’s Palace with hundreds of thousands of subordinates, vowing to annihilate the Emperor’s Palace completely, had all fled.

Even the two Demon Clan Emperor Realm powerhouses who appeared out of nowhere and intervened in the battle also disappeared without a trace.

When it comes to the speed of escape, the disciples of the six top-tier sects, numbering in the hundreds of thousands, naturally couldn’t match their own Sect Masters, hence they paid a terrible price.

Not long after, when the six top-tier Immortal Emperors fled back to their respective sects and tallied up their disciples, they sadly found that less than a third of the disciples they had taken to the Emperor’s Palace had returned.

One must know, the six top-tier Immortal Emperors had brought their sect’s most elite disciples to the Emperor’s Palace for the purpose of annihilating the Emperor’s Palace.

Now that these elite disciples have suffered losses of more than two-thirds, it is a heavy burden their sects can hardly bear.

The sects had hoped that by deploying all their elite, they could slay the War Emperor, destroy the Emperor’s Palace, and secure a long-term peace, but they failed, suffering unbearable losses... the six top-tier Immortal Emperors were left to weep without tears.

The result of this battle will spread across the Immortal Realm, and many originally neutral sects or Loose Cultivators may stand on the side of the Emperor’s Palace.

Even some sects or Loose Cultivators originally allied with them might defect to the Emperor’s Palace and turn against the six top-tier powers.

It is conceivable that the six top-tier powers, now abandoned by all, will face an unfortunate situation in the Immortal Realm going forward.

Of course, what worries the six top-tier Immortal Emperors the most is the potential attack from the Emperor’s Palace, led by the War Emperor, seizing the opportunity of their great victory.

For a millennium, the eight top-tier sects ruled the Immortal Realm, sharing the majority of the Cultivation Resources in the Immortal Realm.

Later, the Golden Crow Palace and Flying Swan Peak, two top-tier sects, disintegrated due to their Sect Masters’ fall into Demon Dao after cultivating the Heaven Devouring Art, leaving only six top-tier sects.

If the six top-tier sects also follow the footsteps of the Golden Crow Palace and Flying Swan Peak, the Emperor’s Palace will replace the eight top-tier sects and become the sole supreme entity in the Immortal Realm.

Now, the six top-tier powers have suffered significant losses and diminished strength, and no longer hope to destroy the Emperor’s Palace, only wishing to contend with it to preserve their sects’ interests in the Immortal Realm.

But the six top-tier Immortal Emperors understand that relying on any single sect’s power is insufficient to contend with the Emperor’s Palace, and they might even be defeated one by one.

Thus, after a brief period of recovery, the six top-tier sects convened among the six top-tier Immortal Emperors, deciding to temporarily merge and combine the forces of the six top-tier sects to resist the Emperor’s Palace.

The merged six top-tier sects named themselves the "Six Sects Alliance," with the alliance headquarters set in the Ice River Palace of the Ice River Empress.

When moving to the Ice River Palace, the six top-tier sects brought along all their sect’s foundations.

As a result, the Ice River Palace gathered the six top-tier Immortal Emperors and hundreds of thousands of Immortals, also inviting several Emperor Realm Experts from the Immortal Realm with close ties to bolster their ranks, seemingly still an immensely formidable force.

However, the six top-tier Immortal Emperors didn’t dare to take the initiative, instead retreating to the headquarters of the Six Sects Alliance. They first hired an Emperor Realm Array Master with a large sum to set up layer upon layer of Defensive Arrays around the Ice River Palace, then began to seclude themselves in earnest training, hoping to restore their own strength quickly.

On the Emperor’s Palace side, contrary to the six top-tier Immortal Emperors’ expectations, they didn’t rush to pursue and annihilate the six top-tier sects to seize their interests in the Immortal Realm.

Although the Emperor’s Palace suffered minimal losses in the battle with the six top-tier forces, they didn’t have sufficient strength to pursue the six top-tier forces further.

Moreover, Fang Bai understood the wisdom of not pursuing a desperate enemy. Even though the power of the entire Emperor’s Palace might destroy the six top-tier sects, if they resist desperately once cornered, the Emperor’s Palace would suffer considerable losses.

This is something Fang Bai does not wish to see.

So, after the great battle ended and Fang Bai learned that the six top-tier forces had gathered at the Ice River Palace and formed the Six Sects Alliance, he also allowed the Immortals of the Emperor’s Palace, who had expended too much immortal power in the battle, to recuperate.

As for Fang Bai himself, after a brief seclusion, he returned to peak condition.

During the Emperor’s Palace Immortals’ rest, a large number of Immortals came to seek refuge one after another, and many sect powers also requested to submit to the Emperor’s Palace and follow its lead henceforth.

In response, Fang Bai personally screened them and expelled those sect powers with notorious conduct or Immortals with unethical character.

Ultimately, the Emperor’s Palace—encompassing both new and old disciples—reached a count of over one hundred thousand, finally restoring the numbers to that of its peak in a past life.

The only thing lacking is that the overall strength of these one hundred thousand Emperor’s Palace disciples still falls short of its peak in a previous life.

However, this doesn’t matter much to Fang Bai. He believes that within ten years, the Emperor’s Palace will once again attain its past glory.

Fang Bai selected those with great strength or outstanding potential among the one hundred thousand Emperor’s Palace disciples to reform into one hundred and eight battle generals.

These one hundred and eight generals comprised of thirty-six Great Generals with High Rank and Peak Immortal Emperor Realm, and seventy-two Small Generals with Initial and Middle Immortal Emperor Realm.

Among the one hundred thousand Emperor’s Palace disciples, selecting seventy-two Initial and Middle Immortal Emperor Realm disciples was more than sufficient, but the number of High Rank and Peak Immortal Emperor Realm disciples was still somewhat lacking.

Hence, for the following period, Fang Bai focused primarily on guiding the Emperor’s Palace disciples’ cultivation, hoping that more High Rank and Peak Immortal Emperor Realm experts would emerge within the Emperor’s Palace.

As for the Hundred Flowers Empress and several other Emperor Realm Experts, whenever they were not cultivating themselves, they sometimes offered guidance to some of the Emperor’s Palace disciples.

Regarding the Six Sects Alliance and the Heaven Devouring Great Emperor, Fang Bai closely monitored their actions.
