Chapter 534. Both Sides Move Out, the Battle Begins

The Extracosmic Heavenly Demons and the Celestials together formed an extremely formidable force.

The current Celestials were especially different from before. After accepting the power of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, they had risen by more than one realm overall.

Thus, even before they emerged, a formidable aura was already rolling out from within.

The surrounding sky was completely covered by black mist, and layers of oppressive pressure surged without restraint. Even more terrifying was the endless thunder roaring above the mountain range.

Thunder and lightning represented the Celestials, while the black mist represented the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons.

Their powers had now joined together, and both sides moved out.

"They are here," Jiang Taiyu remarked. His previously calm gaze had now become extremely solemn.

Although he had already made plans, he knew very well that once the battle began, it would certainly not be easy. If this were any other time, Jiang Taiyu would never have initiated it. He would have waited slowly for an opportunity.

The reason was straightforward. The combined power of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons and the Celestials was indeed strong.

Even if he personally took action, he could only barely hold the situation, and that was while even stronger beings had not yet descended.

But now, his goal was that Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token.

Jiang Taiyu knew very well how important that object was.

He also knew that if they could not obtain it, they might be forced into a passive position when dealing with the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons later.

After all, Lu Yuan had already obtained seven Celestial Emperor's Ancient Tokens. The more he collected, the more power he could inevitably control.

More importantly, in Jiang Taiyu's heart, Lu Yuan might become the most important figure in dealing with the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons in the future.

He did not doubt the future achievements of this young man before him. Lu Yuan would definitely surpass Immortals and reach an even higher realm.

With the support of the Celestial Emperor's Ancient Tokens, that would naturally be even better.

In other words, Jiang Taiyu was also making arrangements for the near future. The most important component of those arrangements was Lu Yuan.

Therefore, his purpose in starting this battle was not to actually seize the Thunderflash Mountain Range. It was merely an excuse for Lu Yuan to take away that Celestial Emperor's Ancient Token.

Now, seeing the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons and the Celestials move out, Jiang Taiyu did not hesitate. "Everyone, prepare yourselves. The battle is about to begin."

A peerless aura immediately emerged around him, surging layer upon layer.

Previously, Jiang Taiyu had given Lu Yuan the impression of an elegant scholar. He had not shown the bearing of someone in a high position, let alone that of a true expert.

It contrasted greatly with his identity.

But at this very moment, as his aura emerged, immense pressure surged outward. It was not limited to the surrounding mountain region. The entire Celestial Star seemed to be filled with the terrifying aura emanating from him.

In an instant, Jiang Taiyu's entire form was enveloped by layers of dazzling radiance.

Power surged from within him, vast beyond measure. Even the distant stars trembled along with it.

In the next instant, he took one step forward. The entire Thunderflash Mountain Range began to shake, and even the black mist covering everything around it seemed to dim. A terrifying aura swept forth.

Sheltered beneath this aura, everyone felt that even if the Celestials and the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons joined forces, Jiang Taiyu would still be able to protect them from danger.

"Starfield Lord Jiang has personally taken action. It seems we have no choice but to fight to the death this time."

At this moment, a voice came from the very center of the Thunderflash Mountain Range.

Immediately after, shadows appeared one after another, accompanied by thunder, lightning and endless black mist.

Some of them had wings on their backs. Terrifying auras surged around them, and lightning coiled over their bodies.

They were Celestials. However, unlike before, their once-white wings had now completely turned black. The power radiating from them was also filled with danger.

Not far away were figures shrouded entirely in black mist. Their faces could not be seen clearly, but every one of them was formidable.

Those who appeared were all at the Grotto-Heaven Immortal Realm or above.

In addition, there were many Celestials. Altogether, they numbered tens of thousands. Such a force was rarely seen in the entire universe.

Under these circumstances, if they left this place to campaign through other regions of the Outer Cosmos, they would definitely succeed. Apart from the top ten starfields, no major clan would be able to contend with this force.

Jiang Taiyu had no intention of wasting words with them. He glanced at those who had appeared and confirmed that the high-end combat forces of the Celestials and Extracosmic Heavenly Demons had all come out.

Then he took one step forward and gave the order. "Fight."

After saying this, he personally led from the front. With a single step, power surged from his body and spread outward with him as the center.

Heaven and earth fell silent at the same time.

Opposite him, the Celestials and Extracosmic Heavenly Demons were shaken at the sight. They knew that the one acting now was a Supreme Immortal. They absolutely could not be careless.

In an instant, the strongest among them also made their move.

Suddenly, black mist enveloped heaven and earth. All kinds of strange auras surged out.

These were Heaven Rank experts of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons. Although they were already far from their peak after descending into this world, they were still quite terrifying when they joined forces.

Once they moved, they blocked Jiang Taiyu's techniques.

And everything had only just begun.

On the other side, the battle between the two sides officially erupted as well.

One side was an army formed from the experts of various clans. The other side was the Celestials who had accepted the power of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons.

The chaotic battle erupted and immediately became fierce.

All kinds of techniques and abilities appeared above the Thunderflash Mountain Range, and endless light shot out continuously.

The two sides were more or less evenly matched. Otherwise, they would not have fallen into the current stalemate.

Lu Yuan was among them as well, but he remembered the purpose of this trip and did not show what he was truly capable of. He merely observed as he fought.

Mo Gang and the others from the Mohe Clan were worthy of being from a major clan of the top ten starfields. Their physiques were tyrannical, and their might shook the heavens.

When they were not fighting the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, they could completely suppress the Celestials.

And this was after the Celestials had accepted that mysterious power.

After seeing this, Lu Yuan could be certain. Without the support of the Extracosmic Heavenly Demons, the Celestials could not stir up much trouble at all.

Unfortunately, strictly speaking, the Celestials were nothing more than puppets. Of course, even puppets could not be ignored.
