Chapter 256 Sea Emperor Joins the Sect
"The Realm of the National Treasures is closing early, prepare for battle!"
Lu Hanzhou of the Golden Crow Divine Race received the news and immediately shouted out loud, his voice resonating through the entire firmament.
Above the plains, over forty million Demon Soldiers and human soldiers all became invigorated; they had waited for so long and finally, the battle was about to begin.
This battle would surely be recorded in the annals of history.
Apart from the fight against the Malevolent Matriarch of Baili three thousand years ago, the Human and Demon Clans had never joined forces.
After the battle, they could brag to the world, a thought that alone was thrilling.
As for the possibility of failure, they did not give it much thought.
Since ancient times, evil had never triumphed over righteousness!
This time, with both clans resolute, Su Yie would have to die even if he didn't want to.

In addition to the more than forty million-strong army, even more powerhouses from both clans were on their way, and it was said that even Di Jun might take action.
The death of the Great Celestial Sovereign forced the Golden Crow Divine Race and the Human Emperor Temple to lose their composure.
If this continued, they might be the next ones to die!
At that moment, at the edge of the plain and on top of a green hill, there stood two figures at the edge of a cliff.
It was Heaven-stealing Demon Ancestor and a man in black standing side by side.
The man in black wore a conical hat with a long curtain hanging down to his waist from behind his head, and one could vaguely see his face, but his specific features remained unclear.
"Next, you will witness the final splendor of the Great Cang Invincible Body," said the Heaven-stealing Demon Ancestor, glancing at the man in black with a light chuckle.
His tone was light, as if he was certain that Su Yie was doomed.
Upon hearing this, the man in black remained unmoved and said indifferently, "He is not the Great Cang Invincible Body; there can only be one Great Cang Invincible Body in an era. His constitution clearly surpasses that of the Great Cang Invincible Body. It is simply a different approach to the same goal. He might represent a completely new type of constitution, analogous to the King's body or the Emperor's body, possessing a bloodline that suppresses all other constitutions."
Not the Great Cang Invincible Body?
The Heaven-stealing Demon Ancestor narrowed his eyes, showing no surprise, but shook his head and said, "No matter what his constitution is, he is as good as dead."
Even if Su Yie could survive, he would take action himself.
This place would become the burial ground of the Ten Thousand Demons Court Demon Emperor!
The man in black asked meaningfully, "What benefits do you reap from the Demon Emperor's death?"
"I aim to unite the Eastern Lands, and he is a threat," the Heaven-stealing Demon Ancestor replied matter-of-factly.
"Emperor Jiang Mo seems to take quite an interest in the Demon Emperor," the man in black said, gazing at the distant Heavenly Machine Tower.
Emperor Jiang Mo!
The Heaven-stealing Demon Ancestor trembled slightly, his brows furrowed deeply, and he said in a heavy voice, "Aren't you a follower of the Demon Lord? Why bring up Emperor Jiang Mo?"
"The Demon Lord and Emperor Jiang Mo are sworn brothers. I'm just mentioning it. I won't interfere with what you plan to do. I just want the body of Xiao Tianya," the man in black replied, plunging the Heaven-stealing Demon Ancestor into deep thought.
He had been to the Southern Wilderness before and owned a debt of gratitude to the Demon Lord, and he was also quite familiar with Emperor Jiang Mo.
If Emperor Jiang Mo held a good relationship with Su Yie, killing Su Yie would lead to unimaginable consequences.
However, the nature of Emperor Jiang Mo's interest in Su Yie was still uncertain.
Su Yie was growing too fast; he had to be eliminated.
If all else failed, he could use others to accomplish the deed.
Thinking this, the corners of the Heaven-stealing Demon Ancestor's mouth lifted, a cold smile spreading across his face.
As time passed, more and more kings were being removed from the Realm of the National Treasures.
Han Hai was the first among Su Yie's team to be taken out, followed by Lyu Wutian.
Within Emperor Su's Sect.
Lyu Wutian: The combined armies of both clans are already outside; are they planning to flatten Heavenly Machine Tower?
Empress of the Great Zhou: the audacity of Heavenly Machine Tower has grown too fierce; it needs to be suppressed.
Sword Saint Xia Tianyi: If you need help, I can teleport over at any moment.
Li Huahun: I'm also willing to join the battle and paint the sky with their blood!
Su Yie: There's no need to worry; I can contribute resources to request the Sect Master's assistance.
Emperor Jiang Mo: "Your Eastern Lands sure are lively."
Sun Qitian: "Dammit, the Great Profound Sound Temple is really turtle-like, no matter how we insult them, they just won't come out. If you need my help at some point, just call on me."
Tai Su Sword Lord: "This is no longer a personal war of the Demon Emperor, but a war of Emperor Su's Sect. The target of both clans' armies is the entirety of Emperor Su's Sect."
...
Su Yie, who was also vying for the Treasure of Luck, noticed the chat within Emperor Su's Sect.
He didn't mind at all. The more enemies there were, the better—it was the perfect opportunity to display the divine might of Emperor Su's Sect!
To enhance the strength of the Divine Shadow Legion, Su Yie decided to use the one-time invitation opportunity he had acquired when he obtained the Imperial Seal of Destruction.
He chose to invite the Sea Emperor!
The Sea Emperor, a tyrant of the Endless Ocean, possessed immeasurable strength. He had deliberately inquired about the prominent figures of the Endless Ocean, and Wu Qing ji had mentioned many names, among which he held the Sea Emperor in the highest awe.
Emperor Su invited the Sea Emperor to join Emperor Su's Sect!
Barbarian King Wu Qing ji: "The Sea Emperor? My heavens!"
Venerable Xuanyuan: "Oh? Another powerful being has arrived?"
Feng Lie: "Could it be the Sea Emperor of the Endless Ocean, the 'Emperor of the Seas'?"
Sun Qitian: "Tsk tsk, even the Sea Emperor is here now. Emperor Su's Sect has grown stronger."
Divine Ghost Lü Wutian: "Is the Sect Master taking this chance to bring in external support?"
Black Tiger Emperor: "What's so great about the Sea Emperor? I'm still the Black Tiger Emperor! Hand over the contributions to the sect quickly!"
...
The addition of the Sea Emperor once again stimulated a surge of excitement within Emperor Su's Sect.
To Su Yie's surprise, instead of being astounded, the Sea Emperor expressed his respect as if he had long admired Su Yie's name.
The Sea Emperor dutifully contributed his resources for joining the sect.
A Magic Artifact called the Sea Monster Pearl.
This Magic Artifact was a one-time use artifact, able to summon a million sea monsters from within the pearl to fight on behalf of the user.
Su Yie was very satisfied, guessing that the Sea Monster Pearl might come in handy in the future.
Soon, the Great Dragon Emperor was also teleported away, leaving only Su Yie behind.
Su Yie took a deep breath and stopped competing for the Treasures of Luck.
There were already as many as five hundred Treasures of Luck in the Repository of the Dao, but most of them would have to be shared with Murong Invincible and others. Even so, his share was still a substantial fortune.
"Is the Realm of the National Treasures about to collapse?"
Su Yie asked to himself, feeling somewhat reluctant.
He still wanted to search for more Treasures of Luck.
The truly strongest Treasures of Luck, he hadn't seen even one, which was somewhat regrettable.
"You've seized the strongest Treasures of Luck, what more could you possibly covet?"
A voice full of resentment and with a hint of mockery arose.
Su Yie was about to ask why it had awakened when suddenly he felt the space around him fluctuating. Before he could react, the world seemed to spin around him.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in the grand hall of the Heavenly Machine Tower.
Noises of commotion reached his ears.
As soon as he appeared, many gazes converged on him.
Quickly, the entire grand hall fell silent.
Su Yie looked around to find that the previously empty grand hall was now crowded with people.
All the kings looked at Su Yie with bizarre expressions, the atmosphere chillingly silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Lü Wutian, Murong Invincible, Xiang Shun, Overlord Luo Fu, Wu Qing ji, Gui Chouxie, Han Hai, and the Great Dragon Emperor squeezed through the crowd to come forward.
The Great Dragon Emperor had already taken human form.
Watching them stand together, the other kings instinctively backed away, distancing themselves from the group.
Unfazed, Su Yie spoke softly, "Are you ready?"
The murderous aura outside the Heavenly Machine Tower had already reached him. The combined killing intent of more than forty million soldiers was terrifying, and although it was Su Yie's first experience of such intensity, he felt no nervousness, but rather his blood surged with excitement.
