Chapter 1224: Tian Chan’s Proposal, The Path Of One’s Dao (2)
In the aftermath, the formerly opposed Qian Yang Holy Sect, Tian Luo Holy Sect, and Jian Ming Holy Sect swiftly forged an alliance.
"We revere the Heavenly Venerable as our highest leader. We stand resolute in our determination to overthrow the tyrannical rule of the six Holy Emperors and restore vitality to the entire Nine Realms." This became their public declaration.
In truth, this alliance formed out of necessity—the Saints of the three holy sects feared retribution from the remaining Holy Emperors and their followers. They began meticulous preparations for the war they believed inevitable.
However, as time passed—one day, ten days, one month, two months—neither the three remaining Holy Emperors nor the Heavenly Venerable made any appearances.
Meanwhile, the Tai Heng Holy Sect and the other two major holy sects maintained absolute silence, offering no response to these dramatic developments.
The entire Nine Realms simmered with unseen currents of tension and anticipation.

Wu Yuan, traversing the void, remained oblivious to the turmoil his actions had created.
Two months after setting his course, he arrived at a patch of murky void where spatial turbulence roiled in chaotic patterns.
Come! Wu Yuan's hand expanded, growing vast as a world unto itself. He plunged it into the depths of the chaotic currents, stirring waves of spatial distortion that rippled outward like disturbed water. Then, as suddenly as it had expanded, his hand shrank back to normal.
In Wu Yuan's palm lay an azure token, its face intricately etched with the relief of a tower.
The fourth Grand Supreme Token. Wu Yuan observed, shaking his head at the cleverness of his target. Seeing no possibility of avoiding me before reaching the Grand Supreme Realm, they simply severed their vital imprint from the token, abandoning it here while fleeing alone.
