I Truly Am The Villian Chapter 2317 - 2316: Chaos in the Cangxuan Realm, the Monster Race War
Previously on I Truly Am The Villian...
At this moment, it seems as if a catastrophic disaster has befallen the entire Nine Domains.
Earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides, volcanic eruptions, sandstorms...
Countless disasters are occurring simultaneously around the world.
Xu Zimei frowned slightly.
He could sense that the quality of spiritual energy in the whole world seemed to have deteriorated; many things were disappearing.
But the world itself remained.
This proves that the True Martial Great Emperor has failed in his Heaven Challenge.
In the next moment, the originally shattered Firmament was seen becoming whole once again.
A fiery object, unknown what it is, fell from the Firmament, unsure where it would land.
Xu Zimei looked at the falling object, initially wanting to chase it.
But this object was peculiar, visible to the eyes yet unable to remember its position or distinguish its direction.
Did the True Martial Great Emperor have any hidden moves?
Xu Zimei frowned slightly.
However, this object was not falling to the lower world, but in the first few layers of the Nine Domains World.
As long as he continued to ascend, he would eventually find it.
Meanwhile, the originally connected pathways of the Nine Domains were beginning to close.
With the Heaven Challenge over, everything was starting to return to normal.
Perhaps to most cultivators, they wouldn't understand what this meant.
But to the true powerhouse, they would surely understand.
At this moment throughout the Nine Domains World, countless powerhouses had different reactions.
Some rejoiced in others' troubles, some sighed, some regretted...
However, no matter what, the outcome was unchangeable.
At this moment, Xu Zimei had already crossed the barrier of the Ghost God Realm and arrived at the Firmament Domain.
The Firmament Domain was larger and more vast compared to the Ghost God Realm.
Even though Xu Zimei had visited the Firmament Domain once before, he did not manage to explore every part.
Back then, the Sixteen Monster Race planned to destroy the Yao Pond, but later, due to Xu Zimei's intervention, the matter ended with the Monster Race's defeat.
That battle was unprecedented.
The scale was so grand, it even impacted the Nine Domains.
In that final battle, both the Holy Court and the True Martial Great Emperor stepped in.
Even Xu Zimei was compelled to use the power left to him by the previous Demon Lord.
The battle eventually ended with the intervention of the Heavenly Dao.
But in that battle, all the powerful figures of the Monster Race were slain by Xu Zimei.
Although Xu Zimei, due to the Heavenly Dao, was able to feign death and leave the Cangxuan Realm.
The Monster Race suffered a heavy blow, and Xu Zimei knew for sure that the Yao Pond benefited the most.
He had obtained the legacy of Goddess Xuanming at the Yao Pond back then, fulfilling a promise.
Yet now, it was uncertain how the Cangxuan Realm had changed.
...…
After arriving at the Cangxuan Realm, Xu Zimei first headed north.
This place was the domain of the Monster Fire Phoenix.
A long time ago, during the reign of the Sixteen Monster Race over the Cangxuan Realm, the Monster Fire Phoenix was one of the Sixteen Monster Races.
At that time, they were immensely glorious.
Ruling countless monster races, the clans and monster beasts that submitted to them were innumerable.
Back then, their words were absolute commands.
But soon, with the powerful figures of the Sixteen Monster Race being slain, this peace was shattered.
Many believed that the Monster Race was united.
The Sixteen Monster Race stood high above, with other monster races under their rule.
But in truth, the Monster Race was not peaceful at all.
Just like the human race, there were schemes and intrigues within the human race.
The same applied to the Monster Race.
It was simply that the Sixteen Monster Race was too strong; they had suppressed in the past, and no monsters dared to oppose them.
Even those who resisted were killed.
But ever since the powerful figures of the Sixteen Monster Race died, the entire Monster Race completely changed.
Numerous monster races began to rebel, hoping for a new era for the Monster Race, with the Sixteen Monster Race becoming a thing of the past.
During this period, wars within the Monster Race were continuous.
There were some who supported the Sixteen Monster Races, and others who did not.
Relying on two different philosophies, a war began.
Overall, the Sixteen Monster Race sided with the weaker forces.
Because most monster races did not want to submit, they aspired for freedom of their own.
They rose up in rebellion, hoping to provide a new era for their descendants.
...…
The domain of the Monster Fire Phoenix.
Originally, they governed vast lands, but now all has been lost, with only the location of the Ancestral Court remaining, where they continue to struggle.
Xu Zimei had no intention of meddling in Monster Race affairs.
His intention was simply to search for clues regarding the object that fell from the Firmament after the True Martial Great Emperor's Heaven Challenge.
Additionally, he sought out the former land of Great Emperor Tianqi.
Great Emperor Tianqi was already a very ancient figure.
Although he once shook throughout Cang Xuan, time was crueller than anyone, and his fame had long disappeared into the River of Time.
His family had fallen and declined.
It was uncertain whether it still existed.
Upon arriving at the domain of the Monster Fire Phoenix, Xu Zimei intended to inquire of the Monster Fire Phoenix's strong figures.
No matter what, as the former rulers of this land, they surely knew more than anyone else.
"Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix!"
This was the ancestral land of the Monster Fire Phoenix.
Led by the Monster Fire Phoenix, three major monster race forces were its followers, and together they guarded this place.
These three major monster races were the Luan Bird Clan, the Long-haired White Dog Clan, and the Gold Pangolin Clan.
Outside of the Phoenix Imprisoning Phoenix, there were far stronger opposing forces.
Twelve monster race forces encircled this place.
Initially, they wanted to strike swiftly and invade the Ancestral Court of Monster Fire Phoenix, but the opposition was fierce.
The opposition suffered heavy losses, and made no progress.
Thus, it reached a stalemate.
...…
Among the twelve opposing monster race forces, the Tyrannosaur Demon Clan was the strongest.
They were gradually becoming the new leaders here.
Monsters dreamed that every race could be free, but it was actually impossible.
Even if the Sixteen Monster Race was overthrown, there would be other strong forces to rule.
It's a timeless principle unchanging over millions of years.
Whether it's the Monster Race or the human race, it's the same.
...…
The current clan leader of the Tyrannosaur Clan was named Ba Tian, with a temper as fiery as his power.
He was reckless and never considered consequences, charging forward fiercely.
As they say, the power that resolves edge fears none who dares death.
The Tyrannosaur Clan led by Ba Tian were such a fearless race.
They showed no fear of death, and even some monster races stronger than them dared not challenge them.
Everyone prized their lives, and none wanted to provoke these madmen.
The Tyrannosaur Clan, with their fearless style, harvested the greatest in this chaotic war among Monster Races.
At this moment, Ba Tian was discussing the next steps with others in a tent.
Suddenly a monster clan member came to report.
"Clan Leader, there's a human outside wanting to enter the Ancestral Court."
"What did you say, a human?" Ba Tian snorted coldly.
