As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1639: Among the Ten Fiends, the Dragon God’s Painting Overturns the Sea; Nine Infants, All Eyes on the Ghost Emperor’s Grand Entrance, Heaven and Earth Refuse...

Crack! Crack——!!!

Heavy clouds churned wildly, while snowstorms howled fiercely.

Lightning bolts twisted together, forming a celestial trap!

Hand-sized snowflakes drifted slowly from the overcast sky, amid the fearsome rumbles of thunder.

Beyond the walls of Qianyuan Taoist City, the air grew utterly frigid!

The Underworld made its move.

The dark tiger emblem of the Underworld, along with the Gate of Fengdu, emerged, shaking all those caught in this conflict to their core!

Commander Xie Yushen got pulled into the Underworld, as it favored striking the leader to scatter the foes first!

The sudden vanishing of their commander struck the imperial forces hard, plunging them into confusion, anxiety, and doubt about pressing on with the fight.

Seven Treasures Divine Sect’s Sect Master Ning Caisen felt his right eyelid fluttering nonstop, his heart surging up into his mouth.

It’s that sensation once more!

Yet another dire turn!

Ning Caisen had joined forces with Gu Cheng and Huang Mei against Fang Hanshu, yet now he pulled back on instinct, reluctant to keep clashing.

He needed to verify if Xie Yushen could emerge alive from that Fengdu of the Underworld, or else.

Should the commander fall while leading the imperial troops against the sects and peaks, what purpose would this imperial campaign serve?

None whatsoever.

For him, Ning Caisen, there was no point in throwing his life away in this skirmish any longer.

Boom——!!!

Fang Hanshu unleashed the Vast River in a surge, his five fingers gripping tight, the teaching whip slicing like a thunderous blade, warping space faintly, building momentum steadily.

Bam——!!

Grandmaster Huang Mei bellowed, the Golden Buddha enveloping him cracked under the strike, teetering on the brink of collapse.

"This guy’s powerful, watch out, both of you!"

Huang Mei yelled out!

Ning Caisen and Gu Cheng’s spirits dipped a bit; Fang Hanshu was truly formidable, drawing on the Vast River to match Half-step Divine Tribulation strength, a force nothing short of extraordinary...

Their combined might could scarcely hold off Fang Hanshu’s fierce assault.

Dragon God Crown Prince and the Three Dragon Sons had been dragged into the Underworld, as had Zhao Beidou and Xie Yushen...

The Old Dragon God plunged headlong into the Underworld Fengdu without hesitation.

Nobody could tell what unfolded within Fengdu.

Yet outside, the battlefield shifted dramatically due to these vanishings, tilting the balance unexpectedly.

Boom——!!!

Gu Qianchi swung his sword in a wide arc, unleashing a barrage of sword beams, avoiding the disaster’s might for the moment—since Lv Taibai was pushing for Divine Tribulation breakthrough, tapping into disaster power would spell doom.

Grandmaster Qian Yuan Lv Qiankun also released waves of sword glows; as sword cultivators thrived on destruction, the dreadful sword lights collided and burst like dazzling fireworks overhead!

Lv Qiankun positioned himself in front of the plaque, where the Qiankun Small Cave Heaven vortex spun endlessly above.

He knitted his brows, his eyes flicking now and then to the dark gateway suspended in the air.

The inscription Fengdu dangled on the portal against the inky city walls, radiating a chilling aura of mortality that spread outward.

Underworld...

Lv Qiankun’s mind eased a touch.

Absent the Underworld’s aid, Qian Yuan Divine Sect... might not weather this disaster at all.

Thoughts swirled among the various Great Divine Sects; Da Jing had birthed a Xie Yushen, whose tactical brilliance divided the mighty sects, with some like Heavenly Pill Divine Sect and others yielding to the Grand Prospect Dynasty’s court—likely lured by vows to redistribute lands after shattering peaks and sects, carving up the realm’s Qi Fortune.

Under such incentives, the once-united Great Divine Sects fractured with ease.

Boom——

Gu Qianchi pulled back; the pair of Divine Tribulation experts avoided a fatal clash.

Lv Qiankun refrained from pushing too hard, as Lv Taibai neared his breakthrough—if they unleashed full force, it would draw the Heaven and Earth Will’s disaster lock, harming Lv Taibai’s progress.

Meanwhile, Gu Qianchi sought to await outcomes from the strife inside Underworld Fengdu, gauging if Old Dragon God, Zhao Beidou, National Master Xie Yushen, and the rest could return alive, before plotting next steps.

If not, clashing to the bitter end with Qian Yuan Divine Sect held no value; these fights... served as spectacles for the court’s elite, and with the National Master yanked into the Underworld, the show rang hollow.

Gu Qianchi fell back to Gu Cheng’s position, noting the beleaguered stance of Gu Cheng, Ning Caisen, and Huang Mei against Fang Hanshu.

A Half-step Divine Tribulation powerhouse outmatched even the peak trio of supreme Great Gods.

Spotting this, Fang Hanshu’s hand wielding the Vast River turned the whip into a sudden lash; Gu Qianchi countered with sword light, shattering the Vast River’s whip.

Fang Hanshu’s toes touched the void lightly, borne by the Vast River’s flow, he darted back swiftly, ascending to the ramparts of Qianyuan Taoist City.

On another front.

Feng Zhiqi, Zhao Fangzhou, Tang Xiejia, and fellow Martial Saints, alongside Divine Fetuses, wrapped up their standoff, withdrawing to the city walls in a deadlock pose.

Still, the tremendous energy surges seeped endlessly from the clash of powerhouses on both sides, resembling clashing tidal waves.

The ancient walls rose sky-high, imposing, vast, unyielding.

Beyond the walls, warships loomed like colossal beasts, firing eerie beams of light, akin to prowling wolves in the wild, poised for the perfect strike!

And a dark portal lingered overhead for all.

Inky black, as if swallowing all illumination, profoundly abyssal, resembling hell’s entrance bearing the weight of doom.
