235: The emperor's heart is clear, and he has pledged to launch a northern expedition.

Three days… passed in a flash.

Pill Tower Holy Domain… above the central plaza, a dense mass of… solemn, murderous figures! Thousands of… figures… stood in the air, the lowest… being… Dou Sheng cultivators!

They… came from… all over the continent, of different races and varied clothing, but… at this moment… in every pair of eyes… burned… the same determination and fighting spirit!

The Yan Clan's… crimson battle armor… was like… a prairie fire; Ancient Dragon Island's… Dragon Guards… were covered in formidable scales; Flower Sect disciples… were surrounded by a myriad of flowers; Sound Valley members… held strange instruments; Starfall Pavilion's powerhouses… were like stars in the dark night; and even… countless… Dou Sheng elders from small and medium-sized forces… as well as… some… old monsters who had been reclusive for many years… all appeared!

This… was almost… all the peak combat power… this world… could muster! A majestic aura… gathered from… the entire world's… last hope… shot straight into the sky, even dispersing… the clouds… in the firmament!

In the center of the plaza, the star tower… stood majestically. On top of the tower, Xiao Chen… in a green robe, stood with his hands behind his back.

His aura… was completely restrained, as if… he had merged… with the surrounding heaven and earth. But… when his gaze… slowly… swept across… the faces below… each one… resolute in the face of death, an invisible… Emperor's might… naturally… permeated, causing everyone's… hearts… to tremble, and then… rise with… immense peace of mind and fanaticism!

“Everyone,” Xiao Chen… spoke, his voice… calm… yet… clearly… reaching… everyone’s ears.

“Today… we… gather here, not for… personal grudges, not for… profit… but only for… survival! For… this land… beneath our feet! For… the billions of lives… behind us!”

“The enemy from beyond the border… still harbors the desire to destroy us! Although the burial emperor coffin… was destroyed… its… true mastermind… still remains! Its power… far exceeds… our… imagination! If… we wait… for its… true body to descend… this world… will surely… turn into… scorched earth!”

“Therefore… today… I… Xiao Chen… as the Anti-Alliance Leader… hereby… swear!” Xiao Chen… suddenly… raised his right hand, a drop of… golden Emperor's blood… containing… chaos starlight… was forced from his fingertip!

“With my Emperor's blood as the guide! With my chaos emperor heart as the oath! This battle… if not victorious… then… death! I will… pour out everything… to eliminate the external enemy… and protect my homeland!”

“If… there are… those who fear battle… and retreat… they will be abandoned by heaven and earth! If… there are… those who defect… and betray… their souls will be annihilated!”

“Boom—!!!”

That drop of… Emperor's blood… transformed into a golden light… soaring into the sky! It exploded… in the high altitude… transforming into a huge… Chaos Star Map… covering… the entire Holy Domain!

A heavy and… solemn… power of oath… descended upon… everyone’s hearts!

“Swear to follow Emperor Xiao to the death! Eliminate the external enemy! Protect my homeland!” Flame Emperor… was the first… to let out… a thunderous roar!

He forced out… a drop of… essence blood… and shot it towards… the Star Map!

“Swear to follow Emperor Xiao to the death!” Dragon Emperor… let out… a heaven-shaking dragon roar! Dragon blood… merged into the Star Map!

“Swear to follow Emperor Xiao to the death!”

“Swear to follow Emperor Xiao to the death!”

Below… thousands of Dou Sheng… roared in unison! Streaks of… essence blood of various colors… like… Raindrops flowing against the current… all… poured into… the… Chaos Star Map!

The Star Map… shone brightly! A majestic power… gathered from… the will of the entire world… slowly… condensed within it!

This… was no longer… a simple alliance, but… a community of destiny… with Xiao Chen’s Emperor's Heart as the core… connecting… the souls of all participants!

“Good!” Xiao Chen… sensing… the vast power and… desperate belief… emanating from the Star Map, a hint of… relief flashed in his eyes.

He… slowly… closed his eyes, his brow’s… Chaos Emperor Mark… glowing.

“chaos emperor heart… clear and bright… reflecting… all realms!”

A strange… fluctuation… spread out from him as the center! His consciousness… seemed to… instantly… merge into… the huge… Oath Star Map!

Through… the Star Map and… the soul connection of every… oath-taker… he… actually… vaguely… sensed… a blurry… image!

That was… an boundless… dark void! In the depths of the void… an incredibly huge… dark red… crack… like… a hideous… scar… lay across it!

Within the crack… vaguely… countless… distorted… black shadows… were wriggling! An evil will… infinitely… more terrifying… than the previous Ice Emperor… was trying… to infiltrate… from the other side of the crack!

And… in front of the crack… there seemed to be… an extremely… faint… seven-colored light membrane… stubbornly… blocking… the descent of that will! But… the light membrane… was already… covered in cracks! As if… it could shatter… at any moment!

“Is that… this world’s… world barrier?!” Xiao Chen… was greatly shaken in his heart! He… instantly… understood!

The true body of the enemy from beyond the border… was not… within this world! But… was trying… to break through… the world barrier… and descend directly! The burial emperor coffin… was probably… just… its… tool… to weaken… or even locate… the barrier!

“I must… destroy… that crack… before… its… true body… descends! Or… reinforce… that world barrier!” Xiao Chen… suddenly… opened his eyes! An unprecedented… sharp light… burst forth from his eyes!

“Everyone!” His voice… like… thunder… boomed!

“I have… already perceived… the enemy’s… true location!”

“The target… is not… anywhere on the continent! But… beyond… this world! The… weak point… of the world barrier!”

“The northern expedition… target… is changed! Follow me… together… to… ‘Beyond the Heavens’… to guard… our world’s… last barrier!”

“This battle… will… take place… at the edge of the world! Win… and… this world… will be eternal! Lose… and… all things… will be annihilated!”

“Set forth—!!!”

Xiao Chen… gave the command! The star tower… shone with ten thousand rays of light! It transformed into a streaking light… tearing through the sky… and was the first to shoot towards… the northern… horizon… that… deepest, most distant… void!

“Set forth—!!!” Thousands of Dou Sheng… roared in unison! They transformed into… streaks of… various colored… astonishing light… following closely behind!

Like… a torrent… sweeping across heaven and earth… they charged without hesitation… towards… the unknown… edge of the world!

The final… decisive battle… finally… drew back… its last curtain! And this time… the battlefield… will be… the boundary… of the entire… world’s… survival!
