Chapter 1151: Dream World Illuminates the Void! Blade Rays Reflected On The River Of Universes! (2)

"Overlords?"

"It's up to Overlord Wu Yuan now." The Eldritch Court’s Saints remained utterly composed, showing no surprise.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A surge of auras materialized abruptly beside the three Immortal Court Saints.

Countless figures emerged, numbering over eight hundred, each varying in form—some akin to avian creatures, others like worms, some resembling jiaolongs—all sempiternal lifeforms.

Overlords!! Individually, these Overlords released by Saint Teng Chong were no match for Saints. However, their sheer numbers were staggering.

Those Overlords participating in the Xuanhuang Cosmiris had to send their true selves. With their true selves venturing out, the mana or ether bodies naturally followed, amplifying their count tremendously.

"Let’s fight!"

"Exterminate these Eldritch Court vermin."

"Haha, Saints? Were we in the cosmic sea, a single Saint could easily crush us."

"Who would have thought that us sempiternal lifeforms would one day clash with Saints, and their true selves at that."

"Let us slay Eternals." Hundreds of Overlords erupted with excitement, their blood boiling with fervor.

Eight hundred figures stood—a force of over four hundred Overlords. Among them, about seventy were powerhouses from the Immortal Court, all third-stage and fourth-stage Overlords in the universe.

Overlord Yue Shan, who currently ranked as the number one Overlord of the Immortal Court, was present, alongside Overlord Peng Shi and many others. These Overlords born in the River of Universes would not have their combat power suppressed here; they could unleash their full might.

As for the remaining three hundred plus Overlords? They were all naturally-born eternal lifeforms from the Saint Realms and Eternal Realms of the Immortal Court.

In the cosmic sea, they could unleash fourth-stage Overlord strength, but within the River of Universes, they were suppressed and could only unleash second-stage Overlord power.

And as for other Overlords from the cosmic sea? They were even weaker, lacking the qualifications to join the fight at all. Saint Teng Chong and the others dared not let them out.

"Attack!" Saint Teng Chong's furious shout resonated in the spirits of the hundreds of Immortal Court Overlords.

He was a roc who had attained the Dao. His vast wings were like a canopy, blocking the firmament as he employed a defensive eternal ultimate technique—Wing Eclipse. He fended off the attacks of the five Eldritch Court Saints desperately, buying time for his subordinates to launch their assault.

"Attack!"

"Attack!"

Over four hundred Overlords, and a combined total of over eight hundred figures, cast their arcane arts in unison. As weaker beings, they could not engage in solo combat in such a colossal melee. If they fought alone, they would be picked off one by one.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

One powerful attack after another streaked across the void like streams of light, merging into each other, ultimately forming a wave of fearsome power.

The attacks of second-stage Overlords formed the core of the attack, interspersed with numerous third-stage and fourth-stage Overlord-level attacks.

The power of this wave instantly surpassed the limits of a fourth-stage Overlord level, breaching the fifth-stage Overlord level.

Boom!

The wave swept over everything, as if splitting heaven and earth, silencing the boundless void before heavily striking the sea of thunder that was Saint Lei Dao.

Boom!

It was like a cosmic explosion; the sea of thunder was nearly obliterated. Countless bolts of lightning converged to restore his true body, which staggered backward.

This scene stunned all the Saints.

Ants could bite an elephant to death if there were enough of them. The waters of a hundred rivers could gather into a sea.

Any single Overlord could be easily slain, but the combined power of over eight hundred Overlords was enough to reach the Threshold Dao Pioneer level, or peak fifth-stage Overlord level, surpassing any Saint present.

"So strong."

"Such a gathering of Overlords? Their combined might is truly terrifying."

"This!" Saints Lei Dao and Hong Jun found it vexing.

Originally, the five Eldritch Court Saints had the upper hand. Now? With eight hundred Overlords joining the fray, the tide shifted instantly, and those fearsome waves of power could easily send any one of the Eldritch Court Saints flying.

Moreover, amidst the ranks of the Immortal Court, two figures in azure robes soared forth.

These two silhouettes, identical in form and vital aura, wielded their swords. Their techniques were ethereal, yet sometimes ghostly and unpredictable. Working together, they were strong enough to restrain one Eldritch Court Saint.

"Moon Dance!"

"Ode to Mountains and Seas!"

"The Nine Heavens Stir!"

"Extinguish Emotions of the Vast!" Threads of sword light cut across the void, the grand fluctuations illuminating all directions, showcasing the breathtaking talent of this female Overlord worthy of her fame across the River of Universes.

The dazzling, ineffable swordsmanship left many Overlords briefly entranced.

This was Overlord Yue Shan, a staggeringly powerful figure whose position on the Samsara Rankings remained unshakable for eons, universally acknowledged as an individual with the potential to forge a Legend of the River in this cycle of heaven and earth.

Even with the recent meteoric rise of Overlord Wu Yuan, Overlord Ming Jian, and Devil Emperor Xia, her brilliance couldn’t be overshadowed.

"Counterattack." The sudden outburst from Overlord Yue Shan significantly boosted the morale of the Immortal Court forces, overwhelming Saints Lei Dao, Hong Jun, and the others into a distressing retreat.

Of course, they were merely forced onto the back foot. Escaping was still quite feasible.

This was why major factions rarely engaged in battles when the Xuanhuang Cosmiris opened; with so many Overlords gathered, even Saints rarely came out ahead unscathed. If large numbers of Overlords slaughtered one another, the losses would be enormous, outweighing the gains.

Moreover, universe-born Overlords, who were practically invincible within their universe, rarely wished to make such pointless sacrifices. Yet this time, the Immortal Court's Overlords had no choice but to fight.

"Overlord Wu Yuan, when will you make your move?"

"If the fighting continues like this, we'll have to retreat." Saint Lei Dao anxiously transmitted.

He hadn't anticipated the Immortal Court's counterattack to be this ferocious.

Overlord Yue Shan's strength had reached the Perennial level. With her true self and ether body combined, she was no less formidable than the late Saint Hong Yun.

Her intervention considerably worsened the situation for the Eldritch Court’s side. Meanwhile, Wu Yuan’s body refiner self, ether body, and mana body lay hidden within Saint Lei Dao’s grotto-heaven artifact, quietly surveying the battlefield.

Three Saints. Overlord Yue Shan?

Wu Yuan silently analyzed the state of the battle; it was his first glimpse of Overlord Yue Shan. Indeed, she was remarkable.

The first time Wu Yuan heard her name, he had just gained the strength of an Overlord, while she was enthroned as the number one Overlord of the River of Universes. To this day, Overlord Yue Shan remained just as dazzling.

In due time, given ample opportunity, perhaps this Overlord Yue Shan could step into eternity and become True Saint Yue Shan.

The thought flickered through Wu Yuan's mind.

Meanwhile, Wu Yuan's gaze swept across the Overlords. The pressure of their combined auras was formidable as they attacked the Eldritch Court Saints furiously.

These four hundred Overlords represented the culmination of the Immortal Court’s sempiternal forces in this cycle of heaven and earth. The dozens of universe-born Overlords, many of whom boasted fourth-stage Overlord strength, made up the bulk of their might.

Barring unforeseen events, it was normal for several True Saints to emerge over time among these hundreds of Overlords.

In the early periods of each samsara cycle of heaven and earth, more of heaven and earth’s essence converges compared to later periods. This leads to the birth of geniuses of exceptional caliber within the River of Universes.

Wu Yuan understood deeply.

Very well, I shall wipe out the culmination of the Immortal Court’s power over this era.

Wu Yuan’s ambition was always to deal a devastating blow to the Immortal Court, so he decided to attack its Saints.

He had two objectives: first, to massacre the future elites of the Immortal Court; even if they could be revived, not all of them would be granted this privilege. The mightier the Overlord, the harder it was to resurrect them.

Second, to seize the initiative in battle, compelling the True Saints of the Immortal Court to leave their lairs and come to the aid of their subordinates.

Time to end this.

With a mental command, Wu Yuan's body refiner self, ether body, and mana body simultaneously left the grotto-heaven world and emerged into the open. His ether body remained concealed within the internal world of his body refiner self, with only his body refiner self and mana body revealed.
