Chapter 1360: Engage
In the murky depths of the void, Wu Yuan's body refiner self and ether body streaked through space at breathtaking speed, hurtling toward the Immortal Court Universe. Simultaneously, his qi refiner self led Eldritch Progenitor Di Jiang, Great Emperor Yan Tuo, and the others through the void.
For Dao Zenithels, traversing the River of Universes was swift work. Now, freed from the Primordium's restraints, their speed would grow truly terrifying.
Suddenly, Wu Yuan's body refiner self and ether body jerked to a halt. A message from Eldritch Progenitor Hou Tu had reached him.
"The Dao Zenithels have departed the Immortal Court Universe," Hou Tu transmitted directly. "Their trajectory indicates they're heading for my universe. Given the distance between the Eldritch Court Universe and the Immortal Court Universe, they'll arrive in two hours."
Heading for the Eldritch Court Universe?
Wu Yuan's heart lurched. Currently, Eldritch Progenitor Hou Tu's true body was absent, with only a fragment of consciousness revived. She could only rely on the universe's essence power to withstand external threats.
In normal times, this might suffice. But now, during the turn of the samsara cycle, the River of Universes' essence power relentlessly eroded and destroyed universe after universe.
At this moment, with sufficient external force, destroying the Eldritch Court Universe would be far easier than ever before.
"Eldritch Progenitor, concentrate on condensing the universe's essence power," Wu Yuan transmitted urgently. "We'll arrive soon."
"Alright."
...
In the spacetime of the River of Universes, over seventy Dao Zenithels soared through the void at staggering speed.
