Chapter 713: Two Days

After a moment, "Your Majesty God-Emperor." Mysterious North Imperial Empress, Monarch Hex Cricket and Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction relied upon the array to teleport out swiftly from the Arcadia Flying Ship. They arrived at where Bloodshed God-Emperor was.
Bloodshed God-Emperor nodded.
Closely following that, this region turned into a piece of primal chaos fuzziness, preventing others from seeing what they were doing.
"Bloodshed is quite careful." Primal Master chuckled.
"He should have an arrangement. After all, the number of moves he had is more than ours." Abyss Primogenitor laughed too. Bloodshed God-Emperor was the number one in direct combat, in refinement, and on arrays within the entire Cultivator Cosmos. He had reached the Ruler realm in all three Daos. He was the most all-rounded and perfect Ruler. Even though Monarch Green had the same demeanor as he did for Monarch Green specialized in three Daos too.
But Monarch Green concentrated more on combat. He lacked too much in terms of refinement and array.
"Hu."
The surrounding scene became clear again.
Bloodshed God-Emperor ordered, "Go."
"Yes."
Mysterious North Imperial Empress, Monarch Hex Cricket and Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction all acknowledged before swiftly entering the Arcadia Flying Ship again.
"Bloodshed, you are too careful. It is fine for you to block off those from Ancestor Mother Religion to scout, now you are even preventing us from getting in onto what your plan is?" Temporal Island Lord shook his head.
Bloody Ruler Nile quipped, "That's right. Is there even a need to be on guard against us? Oh right, what plan do you have to deal with the Ancestor Mother Religion? No matter how I think, it just seems like we can't win."
"We might feel like we can't win, but perhaps Bloodshed has his methods." Empress Qian He giggled.
"What could there be? I specialized in the array so we can continue fighting on by relying on arrays." Bloodshed God-Emperor swept his gaze, looking across the few Rulers around. He had also looked across Bloody Ruler Nile. Nevertheless, his expression remained normal as he laughed, "The protectors of Ancestor Mother Religion is weaker regarding laws and profound mysteries. The array I made could be useful."
Monarch Green, Pang Yi, Purgatory Ruler, and others all nodded.
Everyone could vaguely guess that the most effective and formidable mean of turning the tables around now would be to use impressive arrays! Bloodshed God-Emperor specialized in array too, and could easily refine it himself.
...
Within the vast palace hall where the Ancestor Mother Religion was located at.
The many Religious Leaders were found within. They were looking at the scene floating in midair. The view was split into two regions–one was where the many protectors were moving, and the other was where the Paragons of Cultivator Cosmos were discussing amongst each other via voice transmission.
"Previously, what exactly did Bloodshed God-Emperor arranged when he asked Mysterious North Imperial Empress, Monarch Hex Cricket and Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction over?"
"He is so careful?"
These Religious Leaders were all paying close notice to this.
Very soon, the huge fanged-hunk said, "Religious Leader Niko transmitted the news over. He said that Bloodshed God-Emperor should have given some arrays to Monarch Hex Cricket and the others. Naturally, there could be some mistake in this information too."
"Arrays?" All of them nodded slightly. They felt their hearts relaxing too since this was within what they expected.
******
The protectors and Paragons from both cosmos were fighting.
They still lacked an understanding of the protectors during the first battle.
However, from the second battle on, the Cultivator Cosmos Paragons were no longer the same. They became more cunning. With the help of the terrifying arrays displayed by Mysterious North Imperial Empress, they would sneak attacks in time after time! Those arrays had been personally refined by Bloodshed God-Emperor and were targeted against the weakness of the protectors. Borrowing upon the power of these arrays, they could separate the protectors apart. The Paragons would then proceed on with their assault.
Naturally, the Ancestor Mother Religion would retaliate.
The three brutal Holy Protectors could break out of the technique with brute force! After all, other than being weaker regarding the usage of laws and profound mysteries, their strength had reached the Ruler level.
For Mysterious North Imperial Empress to restrict, those three Holy Protectors just with the array was something challenging.
Even still, with the random changes of the array and sneaking in many attacks, it had given the cultivators some harvest.
...
Within the blink of an eye, two days passed.
"Hu."
The group of cultivator Paragons was resting on top of a tall mountain.
Xue Ying sat on a piece of large stone. Paragon Huo Cheng, Bamboo Mountain Prefecture Master, Purgatory Great Commander and the others who were looking around, could not help but sigh, "We had more than 100 skirmishes in just these two days! Most of our Paragons have died before, with some dying more than 10 times!"
Fortunately, they could refine another avatar by relying on their real body. As for the injury on their soul split, they could rapidly recover by depending on time acceleration.
Usually, they would maintain at a hundred-times time acceleration rate. During crucial moments like now, everyone was willing to consume a large number of Deity Crystals to increase the time-acceleration to 10,000 times! That would allow their souls to recover quicker. To this… Bloodshed God-Emperor, Abyss Primogenitor, and the others had conferred a large number of Deity crystals too. None was being the miser.
Naturally–
There were some who had always survived like the undying Monarch Hex Cricket, Water Devil King, White Sovereign King and Xue Ying.
As for Bitter Cultivator, Purgatory Great Commander, Paragon Huo Cheng, and Bamboo Mountain Prefecture Master, they had died before. 'Paragon Huo Cheng' was initially unable to refine another avatar since his true body was kept imprisoned in the Destruction Eden of Lake Heart Island. Pang Yi who was currently a Ruler, had even personally set off for the Lake Heart Island. With his identity in the Destruction Legion that was much higher than Xue Ying's, he had personally requested for Paragon Huo Cheng to be released. In addition to the fact that Paragon Huo Cheng was indeed imprisoned for a very long time, the Destruction Legion finally caved in and released him.
"That venom-tailed Holy Protector is very vicious." Xue Ying could not help but caress his chest. After battling for so many times, the only time he was injured was when that venom-tailed girl suddenly assaulted him when she was fighting the Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction. That tail of hers could extend like lightning, piercing through the armor on Xue Ying.
Fortunately, Xue Ying's reaction was quick. He immediately moved his body into the Mirage World. This significantly reduced the power of that venomous tail. Thus, it had merely injured him.
As for Bitter Cultivator and Purgatory Great Commander, they all died in the hands of that venom-tailed girl! Her sneak attack was lightning fast! It came abruptly with a great force that even Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction did not dare resist. Bitter Cultivator and Purgatory Great Commander might have cultivated the Myriad Devil True Body, but that girl's venomous tail caused them to lose their lives.
"Even though we died many times, we can refine another body. If those from the Ancestor Mother Religion died, it would be cutting off their forces." Xue Ying saw hopes of victory in this battle.
After the over hundred skirmishes the past two days, there were only 19 protectors left on the side of the Ancestor Mother Religion! They were all apex protectors! As for the ordinary protectors, they had been kept into the Cultivation Eden and would not be participating the battle anymore.
The 19 apex protectors. As for others? They were all killed!
Using the many arrays bestowed by Bloodshed God-Emperor, they were able to trap those protectors within frequently, preventing them from helping each other. That was how they could gradually kill them off.
'The arrays provided by Teacher is truly mystical. But the Ancestor Mother Religion has merely used two slightly more formidable treasures till date. It seems they have yet to erupt with full force.' Xue Ying frowned. The Ancestor Mother Religion had revealed two pieces of formidable treasures. One was used by the golden-haired monkey when he was forced into a dangerous predicament by an array. The venom-tailed girl took out a jade-green crystal rock and directly embed into her forehead! Following that, this venom-tailed girl directly smashed the array with her tail–that was some magnificent power. However, that jade-green crystal rock had clearly become smaller. She then kept it and had not used it since.
The other treasure was used by that muscular man wielding the wooden pole.
For the sake of saving over ten apex Paragons that might be wiped out entirely, he directly opened his mouth wide, spitting out a stream of water that tore apart the array.
They had revealed terrifying methods only during those two times.
As for other times, the apex protectors from the Ancestor Mother Religion might be in constant battles, and occasionally losing one. But they would rather watch this happen than to use those secret methods of theirs.
"They are waiting." Xue Ying could see this.
"Sou sou sou."
A vast array illusion suddenly appeared in the sky. Mysterious North Imperial Empress, Monarch Hex Cricket and Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction emerged.
All the Paragons turned over. They knew that the Mysterious North Imperial Empress and the rest had gone to see the Bloodshed God-Emperor! After every single skirmish as they were resting, the three would meet the Bloodshed God-Emperor.
"Let's prepare for another operation." Mysterious North Imperial Empress revealed a grin. Clearly, as the number of protectors dwindled, everyone could see the hopes of success.
"This time…" Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction was about to speak when his expression changed. He looked towards the distant.
Xue Ying, Devil Phoenix, Water Devil King and the other Paragons turned towards that direction too because a terrifying aura had surged out from that location!
"Hurry over!" Heavenly Emperor of Great Destruction had a huge change in expression.
"Hong–"
Devil Phoenix borrowed on her domain to enshroud all Paragons present. Soon with a 'sou', they were teleported over!
