Let you simulate life, but you change fate every time?! Chapter 1092 572: Eighth Life: Winds and Clouds Surging, Quasi-Emperor Showdown!

"Divine Son, the cause of Divine General Jiang Ya's death hasn't been confirmed yet. Isn't it too soon to mobilize our troops?"

After listening to the Sun God Son's order.

The Ming Dao Venerable wavered back and forth but eventually offered his advice carefully.

"You make a valid point, yet time is not on our side. We need to settle this swiftly before the information leaks out."

With hands clasped behind his back, the Sun God Son replied calmly.

In recent times, the Divine Fire Sect had swallowed up thousands of realms one after another, appearing to flourish.

However, beneath the surface, turbulent undercurrents flowed, and numerous gazes tracked their every action.

Any display of frailty would undoubtedly spark suspicions and unleash a cascade of consequences.

The tiniest error might result in complete collapse.

Hence, a rapid strike with overwhelming force was essential to wipe out every danger.

That way alone,

could they cow the rival factions and secure the present balance.

The slayer of Divine General Jiang Ya, despite his fearsome strength, appeared to be merely a Half-Step Immortal Emperor.

Nevertheless, the Sun God Son, innately divine with an Immortal Emperor's bloodline, believed himself unmatched by anyone.

Besides, he commanded billions of crack troops and generals, backed by more than ten Ming Dao Venerables.

Even facing a Half-Step Immortal Emperor, victory was within his grasp!

"We obey!"

Noting the Sun God Son's resolute position, though they harbored contrary views, the remaining Ming Dao Venerables knelt and accepted his directive.

Soon afterward.

The massive army of a billion set out in full, heading directly for the Medicine God Sect.

At the same time.

Precisely as the Sun God Son predicted.

Near the Divine Fire Sect's forces, hordes of spies and observers lurked in secrecy, monitoring their advance.

Spotting Jiang Ya's absence and the blood rain pouring from the heavens, those spies instantly grasped the truth.

Through diverse methods, they transmitted the astonishing report.

In no time.

Jiang Ya's demise exploded across the thousands of realms like a tempest, rapidly reaching the ears of other Dao Lineage powers.

"Jiang Ya has perished?"

"No way, as the Divine Fire Sect's top Divine General, his cultivation is bottomless."

"Without an Immortal Emperor striking personally, slaying him would be nearly impossible for any regular Venerable."

"This report has to be wrong; verify it again!"

Various factions, learning of Jiang Ya's death, reflexively dismissed it with headshakes, refusing to accept it.

What nonsense.

He was the Divine Fire Sect's premier Divine General!

Jiang Ya had guarded the Outer Domain battlefield for ages, scaring Alien Race Venerables into hiding; few in the Supreme Origin Sacred Realm could claim his life.

Still, reports from forward scouts insisted he died in the Profound Spirit Realm—a claim almost no one credited.

The Profound Spirit Realm lay distant and desolate, barely home to a handful of Ming Dao Venerables.

Lu Yuan might have killed three Venerables and wielded great power, but as a fresh Ming Dao Venerable, how could he endanger a titan like Jiang Ya?

"Only a Half-Step Immortal Emperor acting, perhaps with an Enlightenment Immortal Soldier, could fell Divine General Jiang Ya."

"Without that, relying on his escape arts, he'd break free even from a stalemate."

"Plus, the Sun God Son lingers in the Profound Spirit Realm; if Jiang Ya met disaster, why wouldn't he intervene?"

Countless experts dismissed it, viewing the tidings as a deliberate Divine Fire Sect ruse.

The Sun God Son's blitz through thousands of realms had been overly aggressive, breeding resentment among many groups.

Likely, this was bait to flush out foes, luring discontented sects into revealing themselves.

"Yes, it's definitely the Sun God Son's trap—stay cautious."

"Under the Sun God Son's watch over the Divine Fire Sect, who dares kill a Peak Venerable in plain sight?"

"Not even the Emperor's Sons and Daughters from Dao Lineages could pull that off easily."

Growing cautious, other powers branded the news an outright lie.

Elsewhere, though.

Celestial Sword Pavilion.

Emperor Xuantian, hands behind his back, gazed silently at the heavens, his face flickering with faint changes, as though detecting an anomaly.

"The Fire Dao Laws shifted abruptly—it confirms a Peak Venerable's death."

Murmuring thus, he validated Divine General Jiang Ya's end.

"Is Divine General Jiang Ya really gone?"

"So, a Half-Step Immortal Emperor truly guards the Profound Spirit Realm?"

The Celestial Sword Pavilion Master and fellow Ming Dao Venerables traded stunned looks upon hearing him.

They puzzled endlessly, unable to fathom a Half-Step Immortal Emperor lurking in such a forsaken backwater like the Profound Spirit Realm.

Forget the minor divide between Peak Venerable and Half-Step Immortal Emperor.

That tiny divide yawned wider than the gulf from mortals to Ming Dao Venerables.

Half-Step Immortal Emperors were peerless prodigies of supreme gifts.

Flawless in insight, talent, body, cultivation, might, and luck—they excelled in all.

Enlightenment's chance alone eluded them.

Seize that moment, and emperorship awaited!

Such transcendent figures were rarities throughout the Supreme Origin Sacred Realm, scarce even in Immortal Dao Lineages.

The Celestial Sword Pavilion could scarcely imagine it.

Yet the Profound Spirit Realm concealed one so profoundly—a Half-Step Immortal Emperor in command!
