"Everyone, please take your seats!"
The speaker was a middle-aged man who looked extremely simple. If you glanced at him casually, it was easy to ignore him.
However, it was such an existence that would not attract anyone's attention when walking on the road, but he was the host of this combat meeting, and he was also the strongest person in cultivation among the dozens of Heavenly Supremes in the room.
"I've seen the Spirit King!"
When they saw the person coming, all the powerful men stood up and saluted regardless of their status, for no other reason than because he was the representative of Daqian Palace this time, the Demon-Slaying King, Ling Ao!
Xiao Han could feel that the moment Ling Ao appeared, the Ice Emperor beside him tensed up subconsciously. Although he was unable to detect the opponent's depth due to the huge gap in strength, Xiao Han also subconsciously did not want to do anything with him.
However, contrary to Xiao Han's expectation, Ling Ao cast her gaze on him and met the former's gaze with confusion, but could only remain silent.
"This is my new guest in Daqian Palace, little friend Xiao Han."
Hearing this, Xiao Han temporarily suppressed the confusion in his heart, stood up and said:
"Langya Heavenly Palace, Xiao Han, I have met all the seniors, the Spirit King."
Everyone nodded.
"Langya Heavenly Palace?" King Ling showed a trace of doubt, and then asked:
"Is this my new power?"
"Exactly."
Xiao Han looked embarrassed, "After all, fighting alone is a bit difficult for a junior like me who has no foundation."
"Little friend Xiao Han, you are so humble." King Ling laughed, and then said cheerfully under the curiosity of everyone:
"Both you and your friend next to you who forced the Demon Emperor to self-destruct are not simple people!"
Um? !
The strong men looked more and more surprised, looking at the Ice Emperor who remained calm throughout, as if they did not expect that such an unknown junior could have such powerful strength.
"This time we have to rely on the help of our little friends. I hope you won't dislike us old guys." The Spirit King made a little joke.
Xiao Han said seriously:
"It is obligatory."
The introduction at the beginning was just a small cutscene, and then the Soul King got to the point.
"Everyone, the once-in-a-lifetime battle is about to begin."
As soon as these words came out, no matter how powerful the people present were in the outside world, their expressions changed and their breaths became turbulent.
The same was true for Xiao Han. He had already learned about the reason for this meeting through Old Man Lan, and even learned about the so-called big battle.
The Great Battle, as the name suggests, is another name for a large-scale battle. The two sides in the battle are the Great Thousand World and the evil races outside the territory.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the Great Thousand World smashed the conspiracy of the evil alien tribes to invade the Great Thousand World and formed a confrontation and isolation. Every thousand years, the evil alien tribes with unyielding evil intentions would launch a massive war of aggression on the four borders.
In the initial great battle, the Great Thousand World had been retreating steadily and lost a large area of territory. It was not until the past ten thousand years that talented people emerged in large numbers in the Great Thousand World. Many strong men fought to the death and were able to stabilize their defenses.
However, it is undeniable that every major battle is a meat grinder, burying countless strong men. Under the scale of such a battle, even the most arrogant and powerful Heavenly Supreme Power is in danger of falling.
"Spiritual King, we won't be the only ones on the western defense line in this battle, right?"
At this time, someone asked nervously, and this was also the voice of other strong men.
Although there are dozens of powerful people here, which are enough to defeat most superpowers in the world, it is not enough to hold an entire line of defense.
"Don't worry, we only need to be responsible for the defense of a dozen continents in the middle section of the defense line centered on the Holy Abyss Continent."
The Spirit King gently explained that although the number of powerful people in the world was indeed insufficient to face the powerful enemies of the evil tribe outside the territory, they would not make a decision that would lead to death.
More than a dozen continents were indeed not many, and everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"but……"
The Spirit King suddenly changed the topic and his tone was serious,
"According to the information from Daqian Palace, during this great battle, a Heavenly Demon Emperor will appear within our defense lines."
? ! !
As soon as the Spirit King finished speaking, the whole place was in an uproar.
There is actually a Heavenly Demon Emperor whose strength is comparable to that of the Holy Grade Heavenly Supreme?
Without giving everyone more time to panic, the Spirit King revealed his arrangement.
"So, this time we need at least five peak-level immortals to block or even kill the Heavenly Demon Emperor."
"I count as one."
"You can nominate yourselves."
Hearing this, the hall fell into a strange silence, and many powerful men looked at each other. The Spirit King did not urge him, let alone force him.
There are many powerful Heavenly Sovereigns present, and it is indeed possible to gather five of them at the peak of the Immortal Grade. However, it is foreseeable that these five Heavenly Sovereigns will definitely be in the most dangerous position.
He was not qualified to ask others to fight for their lives like him, and forcing him to do so would even be counterproductive.
After a stick of incense.
Finally, an old man couldn't help it. He suddenly got up and slapped the table.
"That's all, he's just a beast of the Demon Emperor. Anyway, I have nothing to worry about. I don't want this old life, but I have to know how to do it."
"I would like to thank the Jidao Sword Lord on behalf of thousands of living beings." The Spirit King smiled slightly and cupped his hands towards the old man.
The Jidao Sword Lord, a rare casual cultivator among the Heavenly Sovereigns, is alone. Perhaps this time he wants to end his life on the battlefield against the evil tribes outside the territory.
"Haha, since Sword Lord has stepped forward, I can't hide behind, old man."
The person who spoke was the sloppy old man who first talked to Xiao Han. Although the latter was full of alcohol, there was a glint in his eyes that could not be concealed.
"Your Excellency Flame King, thank you very much." Spirit King handed over his hand again.
"TN's, count me in."
A shirtless burly man stood up. Xiao Han had the impression that this was a representative sent by the Desolate God Clan to support him.
"Thank you, Your Excellency Huangjing." King Ling handed over his hand.
"There's only one spot left."
"This time, let me be the only one."
The last person to stand up was an old man with an immortal spirit and the ancestor of a super power in the world.
"Thank you, Ancestor Xingye."
"Okay, on behalf of the thousands of living beings, I would like to thank you all for your sacrifices." The Spirit King looked serious and hugged everyone deeply.
"Spirit King, you are exaggerating, aren't you?" The sloppy old man known as the Flame King chuckled.
"I still cherish my life. It's hard to say who will win between us and that Heavenly Demon Emperor."
"Old Flame King is right." The unsmiling Jidao Sword Lord also gave a stiff smile, "I also want to try cutting off the head of the Heavenly Demon Emperor with a sword."
"That's right." Others also agreed.
"You are right, our goal is to kill the Heavenly Demon Emperor." The Spirit King also said in a sonorous tone.
"Then the remaining demon emperors on the defense line will be handed over to you."
"yes."
Finally, the Spirit King seemed to remember something and said:
"I heard that Your Excellency Xiao Han belongs to the Continent of Illusion?"
Fantasy continent?
Everyone was shocked. They were so familiar with that place. They didn't expect Xiao Han to want to take advantage of that place.
Some elderly people were displeased, thinking that Xiao Han was a little too ignorant. A spiritual-level Grand Master could not do anything about the Fantasy Continent.
Xiao Han, who felt that he had become the focus of the audience, looked calm, raised his head and looked directly at the Spirit King,
"If the Spirit King doesn't mind, you can hand over the defense line of the Fantasy Continent to us."
The Spirit King stared at Xiao Han with burning eyes, and the latter looked at him unwillingly, and the hall fell into silence for a moment.
"Then... I'll trouble you two."
The Spirit King looked at Xiao Han and the expressionless Ice Emperor and said slowly.
