The Saintdragon Emperor and the rest hurriedly helped Tianming establish the nine armies based on the specialties of each sect’s beastmasters. He had basically drafted all the experts in the Sky Palace Formation.

“The sovereign isn’t letting me interfere after activating the Flameyellow Guard Formation. Hence, all I can do is bring along the Myriad Solar Sect cultivators and have the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb act as a mobile base that can react to any changes.”

There was a limit to the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb’s space, so Tianming had chosen the most agile and strongest thirty million people. If there were too many people, it would just slow down their dispatch speed. With thirty million working together with Tianming and the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, he would still be able to respond to an emergency if something occurred on the celestial orderian side.

As for whether the gods left behind in the Sky Palace would join this nova source war, they would have to see how the situation unfolded. “They’ll suffer both the threat of Skywolf and the celestial orderians. I won’t deploy them lightly. The Sky Palace Formation is an extension of the fusion formation, hence its requirements for spiritual threads are less. Even if I’m not inside, they should be safe.” That was why Tianming dared to leave along with all the experts.

There was a second reason, which was that the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb had transformed from a mere transportation tool to a superweapon! Its attack, defense, and speed had all undergone a metamorphosis. It wasn’t limited to just passively taking beatings now. Just the power stored up in its miniature nova source was fifty percent higher than the total stored in both of the Divine Sun Palace’s ‘eyes’ combined.

Tianming had a rough gauge of its power. He recalled Sovereign Greenvoid; as long as he didn’t exit the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, the sun emperor couldn’t do anything to him! Furthermore, once his omnisentient threads reached twenty billion, he wouldn’t necessarily fear the sovereign. “He really doesn’t have any advantages now except for the Flameyellow Coffin and Flameyellow Guard Formation.” That was why Tianming had decided to ride the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb out of the Sky Palace Formation along with his thirty million troops.

“Set off!” Ye Lingfeng, Li Qingyu, and Weisheng Moran were by his side, as well as Yu Ziqian, who had hollered about joining the great battle. Long Wanying was there as well.

As for the seniors like the Saintdragon Emperor and Northdipper Swordsage, they had stayed behind in the Sky Palace Formation to take care of the rear.

Before setting off, Tianming had transplanted all of the saplings in the Voidsky Realm. They had been neatly arranged in rows, and had taken root and germinated. Now that the tomb had its own nova source, they were no longer needed. Taking root, germinating, absorbing nova source, and maturing before finally bearing divine herbs was their new life’s mission.

“Based on the Azurecloud Divine Tree’s efficiency, they’re a multiplier of a nova source’s effectiveness. They can bear many fruits and bless many lives. As long as these thirty-five Azurecloud Divine Trees can mature, the inside of the Sky Palace Formation will never be lacking divine herbs again. The Azurecloud Divine Tree was already so effective on the barren Azurecloud Continent last time, so they’ll definitely have an even better future now that they’ve been planted in the best spot on the sun.” That was Tianming’s accounting toward the Azurecloud Divine Tree. At the very least, it was very safe inside the Sky Palace Formation.

He recalled the tree’s tumultuous coexistence with humans back at the Azurecloud Continent. “The sun is just too hot, which makes everyone here short-tempered. However, the divine tree can bring down the temperature and provide vitality and shade. It’s pretty nice to be able to bring harmony between people.” Tianming was upbeat when he imagined their future. For that beautiful dream, they had to do their best to fight for it and protect it.

……

The flames of the Voidsky Flame Pillar rushed to the skies as a giant ship with nine dragons came out and flew toward the clouds. The new Ninedragon Imperial Tomb had nine dragons wrapped around it, all covered in thick scales. Countless divine patterns moved on the scales, forming a top-tier mobile formation that looked impregnable.

Inside the tomb, the thirty million experts’ eyes were lit up with passion as they were ready to battle anytime. The nine armies were split across the dragon heads, each of which had about three hundred thousand people, as Tianming had brought those closest to him into the inner part of the tomb itself.

While manipulating the tomb to fly below the flaming clouds, he looked at the current state of the myriad sects’ territory. Now that everyone was in hiding, the once prosperous world looked desolate, apart from the celestial orderians near the Flameyellow Divine Pillars.

The tomb flew over the Myriaddragon Mountains. Even now, corpses littered the ground. Skywolf’s astralship, the Greenvoid Abyss, had been taken away as well.

“Is this the Flameyellow Guard Formation?” Tianming increased the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb’s altitude to right below the flaming clouds and he saw countless gold and red divine patterns swimming around the clouds. There seemed to be countless beasts roaring inside the sea of fire. The flaming clouds supported the formation, turning it into a moat of death.

Tianming and the myriad sects had been imprisoned on the sun with no way out. He didn’t dare to enter the Flameyellow Guard Formation when there were so many unknowns.

“If we don’t get through this formation, we’ll never know the situation above, nor anything about Skywolf. All of our life and death will be determined by him alone. It’ll be fine if he wins, but if he loses, others can attack our fusion formation and we’ll soon face disaster. And that’s the most likely conclusion when Skywolf is eight times stronger than the celestial orderians.” Long Wanying was full of worry.

Eight times! How had they calculated it? Simple, they had used nova source quantity. The two Skywolf worlds added together were four times the size of the sun, and the celestial orderians only had half of the sun’s power. Tianming had no idea where the sun emperor had the confidence to go up alone.

“It’s probably the Flameyellow Coffin and this formation, but can things from millions of years ago really be that helpful?” Long Wanying was prudent and maintained her doubts.

“No one can see through the sovereign. Sometimes, we don’t know if he’s really that terrifying or just too arrogant.” Many people had that opinion.

Tianming didn’t say anything. He only drove the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb and slammed it right into the Flameyellow Guard Formation.

“What’re you doing?” Long Wanying hurriedly asked.

Tianming replied in a low voice, “The tomb is an inheritance of the Flameyellow Imperial Star, too. Maybe the formation won’t block it?” He had that guess as he hadn’t suffered any rejection from the flaming clouds when the tomb had flown beneath them. Such a guardian formation would certainly have at least some response, even if it didn’t automatically attack. Of course, he had also only dared to try because of his confidence in the current Ninedragon Imperial Tomb.

“Hang tight!” he shouted.

Everyone was stunned, because this clearly looked like a joyride.

The Ninedragon Imperial Tomb rushed into the clouds. “Just as I thought!” His face brightened with happiness.

That was actually quite normal. The tomb and coffin were both divine objects of the flameyellow divinities. Why would their formation block their own divine objects? Tianming hadn’t thought of that point earlier because of how anxious he was. If there was no obstruction, the hundreds of thousands of meters of cloud would be easily traversed by him.

Flames roiled everywhere as thousands of giant beasts gathered behind the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb, all letting out excited roars. They followed behind as if they had found the king of beasts.

The next moment, the tomb broke through the clouds. Tianming stopped it before it completely exited, as he could already see the outside. His eyes stung from all the white. A massive white star had appeared right above his head. The flames burning on it looked even fiercer than the sun.

Countless human silhouettes were moving on it, arranged into dense armies that flew into space in an orderly manner.

Tianming had already known that the nova source war would come soon, but he hadn’t expected it would begin right now!
