The Great Ruler

“Great Thousand Golden Invitation?” Mu Chen muttered as he looked at those ancient words. He was perplexed in his heart, since he had no idea what it represented.

“I never expected that I would have the chance to receive this Great Thousand Golden Invitation...” While Mu Chen was perplexed, Qing Yanjing flew over and sighed.

“What is it for?” Mu Chen was baffled.

Qin Tian smiled. “When the Immortal Emperor and Heavenly Evil Monarch fought in ancient times, it ended the Fiend Clans’ invasion into the Great Thousand World. That match concluded with the Heavenly Evil Monarch being sealed in the North Desolate Grave.

“But the Heavenly Evil Monarch’s vitality was unimaginable. Although the Immortal Emperor emerged victorious, he did not manage to kill it completely.

“So the Great Thousand Alliance Treaty would be hosted every millennium and sends the Great Thousand Invitation to invite all the pinnacle powerhouses in the Great Thousand World to gather. By using everyone’s power, we would circulate the seal to erase the remaining vitality of the Heavenly Evil Monarch.”

“But only Heavenly Sovereigns are qualified to receive it, and it’s differentiated into three grades, representing the three realms of Heavenly Sovereigns. Only Saint Heavenly Sovereigns are qualified to receive the golden invitation.”

As he spoke, Qin Tian’s expression turned grave. “According to the rules laid by the Immortal Emperor, and we will be able to kill the Heavenly Evil Monarch after circulating it for 49,000 years.

“By far, the invitations were sent out 48 times, and this... is the 49th time.”

Hearing those words, Mu Chen narrowed his eyes and realised the importance of this invitation.

“The Heavenly Evil Monarch is so terrifying? The seal that cost the life of the Immortal Emperor required such a long time to kill it completely?” Mu Chen took a deep breath and the shock in his tone couldn’t be concealed.

After a brief silence, Qin Tian bitterly smiled. “The Heavenly Evil Monarch’s strength is truly unimaginable. So regardless of the price, we have to kill him while he’s sealed. Otherwise, it will spell disaster for the Great Thousand World.

“After all, we no longer have the Immortal Emperor with us.” The faces of Qing Yanjing, Futu Xuan, and the Great Underworld Ancestor turned grave, since they knew what terrible fate awaited the Great Thousand World if that happened.

“If the Heavenly Evil Monarch is that powerful... then won’t the Fiend Clans try to destroy the seal?” Mu Chen’s face turned grave.

“They will naturally try to interfere with the ceremony, but there is a seal left by the Immortal Emperor that only allows lifeforms of the Great Thousand World to approach.”

Nodding his head, Qin Tian narrowed his eyes. “The Fiend Clans have been riled up recently. This is also the reason why the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor are held up.”

Mu Chen’s face turned solemn, since he understood the meaning behind the Great Thousand Alliance Treaty. It concerned the peace of the Great Thousand World...

Compared to this matter, everything else could be placed aside.

“When will it begin?” Qing Yanjing asked.

“Three months from now.” Qin Tian’s eyes flickered with radiance as a baleful aura swept out from his body. “This time, we must kill this threat to the Great Thousand World!”

Mu Chen nodded his head. The Heavenly Evil Emperor was too powerful. If they did not kill him, the Great Thousand World would be uneasy.

That was a volcano, and the moment it erupts, it would engulf the entire Great Thousand World.

Nodding his head, Qin Tian replied, “All the Heavenly Sovereigns have received the invitation, but only half will be heading for the North Desolate Grave. After all, they still have to keep an eye on the Fiend Clans.”

“What a grand event of the Great Thousand World.” Mu Chen sighed. Nearly half of the Heavenly Sovereigns in the Great Thousand World would be gathered, how spectacular would that be?

Compared to that, all the past events paled in comparison.

“It’s indeed a grand event, since it concerns the safety of the Great Thousand World. All differences must be placed down before it.” Qin Tian looked in the direction of Maha Tian and continued, “This is also the reason why I personally came over to stop the war.”

The Ancient Maha Clan, Ancient Buddha Clan, and Ancient Spirit Clan were considered an important force in the Great Thousand World. So no one could bear the responsibility for any losses.

Mu Chen also understood this and his expression turned straight. “Please be reassured, Senior Qin Tian. I am the one who benefited from this event, so I will restrain myself even if Maha Tian wants to act against me.”

Regardless of anything, the Primordial Immortal Body was with him, and the Ancient Maha Clan could only bear the grudge. So there was no need for him to take things too far.

Nodding his head in gratification, Qin Tian warmly replied, “It’s good that you can put your concerns towards the bigger picture. But don’t be worried, the Great Thousand Palace won’t sit still if Maha Tian takes it too far. After all, you’re still a Demon Slayer King of the Great Thousand Palace as well.”

Mu Chen smiled. Maha Tian might be prideful, but he wasn’t a fool. After today’s matter, he should know that Mu Chen wasn’t someone that he could mess with.

“I have completed my mission, so I will take my leave first. After all, time is tight, and I have to deliver the invitations to the other Saint Heavenly Sovereigns.” After a brief chat with Mu Chen, Qin Tian cupped his fists and bade farewell.

Knowing that there was something more important going on, Mu Chen also did not hold Qin Tian back and bade farewell.

“I hope that three months from now, we can meet again at the North Desolate Grave.” Qin Tian laughed as he soared into the sky.

Looking at the departure of Qin Tian, the countenances of Qing Yanjing, Futu Xuan, and the Great Underworld Ancestor were somewhat complicated. “A storm is brewing...”

The Heavenly Evil Monarch was a deity to the Fiend Clans, so they knew the importance of this Great Thousand Alliance Treaty. It definitely wouldn’t be calm.

The Fiend Clans would definitely try everything to rescue the Heavenly Evil Monarch.

Mu Chen nodded his head as well. Although Qin Tian did not go too much into details, he could sense the importance of this matter in Qin Tian’s heart.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have personally made the trip to deliver the invitations.

“The Fiend Clans are preying on us, but I never expected that there would be such a great threat in the North Desolate Grave...” Mu Chen sighed. Fortunately, he stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign Realm. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have the qualifications to come in contact with something like this.

“The North Desolate Grave can be considered as a forbidden region of the Great Thousand World. It is also known as the Myriad Graves with a group guarding it. They were the direct subordinates of the Immortal Emperor, and their leader, the Undying Lord, is probably on the same level as Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor. However, he has always stayed in the North Desolate Grave and hardly steps out. So he isn’t well-known.” Futu Xuan explained.

“Myriad Graves... Undying Lord...” Mu Chen’s countenance turned grave. The Great Thousand World was truly a place with crouching tigers and hidden dragons.

“If the Fiend Clans come, will our Great Thousand World be able to resist them?” Mu Chen suddenly asked.

Exchanging a look with Futu Xuan, Qing Yangjing answered, “In terms of strength, the current Great Thousand World is comparable to the ancient times, or maybe even stronger. We have the Flame Emperor, Martial Ancestor, Demon Slayer King - Qin Tian, Azure Sword Saint, the Undying Lord, and other pinnacle powerhouses. The Five Ancient Clans’ also have their own foundations, and not to mention other forces...

“So if the Fiend Clan really wanted to invade us again, we do have the power to fight back.”

“But there is only one problem. We do not have a second Immortal Emperor. You should know that the Immortal Emperor was someone beyond the Saint Heavenly Sovereign Realm. So we can only trigger the seal and kill the Heavenly Evil Monarch to ruin the Fiend Clan’s ambition.”

Nodding his head, Mu Chen muttered, “I’m afraid that the Fiend Clans know about this as well...”

The Fiend Clans wouldn’t sit and watch as they killed the Heavenly Evil Monarch. So this Great Thousand Alliance Treaty might sweep a storm of blood...

Facing this situation, even Mu Chen felt pressure with his current strength.

As Mu Chen’s emotions rampaged within his heart, a gentle hand grabbed onto his. When he turned around, he saw Luo Li’s delicate face.

The latter blinked at him and a warmth surged within his heart, cleansing his emotions. Even his locked brows had loosened up.

Holding onto Luo Li’s hand, Mu Chen raised his head and looked at the sun with a fire blazing in his eyes.

It was good having his lover beside him. Regardless of how ferocious the Fiend Clans would be, Mu Chen was naturally not afraid. He would even give his life to protect her.

“I’ve worked hard for decades to come this far... So how can I allow all of you to ruin my efforts...?

“If the fiends come, it will just be a war, at best.”
