Chapter 139

Back in the Bai clan's holy mountain, the same disciple hurriedly made his way back to the top as he cautiously glanced at his patriarch and elders before falling down to his knees.

"Patriarch, Elders, an urgent report just came in!"

Frowning, the patriarch slowly opened his eyes and glanced at the kneeling disciple who trembled not daring to raise his head.

"Speak."

"Yes! There have been sightings of celestials all across the mortal plane! Our sources have seen them going around collecting the fallen corpses of the fallen celestials!" Hurriedly reported the young disciple.

A solemn expression made its way unto the patriarch's face, yet he still managed to keep his heart steady and not affect his side of the formation, he glanced back at the elders who all had their eyes opened before asking.

"What do you think elders?"

"Since the celestials have made a move themselves, then there is no point in us worrying about this matter patriarch." Said the first elder Bai Yu.

Another Elder stroked his beard as he nodded in agreement. "The matters of the celestials do not concern us, we should just leave everything be and focus on our task."

"I agree, the esteemed Immortal mentor assigned us personally to take charge of the Mortal plane's defense." Added another elder.

The first elder Bai Yu nodded in agreement before speaking. "There is also the matter of him rewarding the contributors by guiding their ascension to the heavenly realm."

"En, so be it. Did the Void sect and Sword mount sect make any moves?" Asked the patriarch.

"No patriarch, only the minor sects and clans attempted to get the fallen corpses but none managed to take any, the celestial collected all of them." Responded the disciple.

"Alright, heed my command, all clan members and disciples outside of the clan's holy mountain are to return immediately, only leave a few to keep an eye on the other holy lands, no one is to engage in combat against anyone! Is that clear?" He ordered.

"Yes, patriarch!" Nodded the disciple vigorously.

"Good, there are too many crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the mortal plane right now, the last thing we want is one of ours offending a celestial." said the patriarch with a sigh as he shook his head.

"Wise choice patriarch." Nodded Bai Yu in agreement before the group of elders and patriarch resumed their attention to manning their part of the formation.

"And that should be the last one to fall so far, this one is one of ours." Said Mace with a frown on his face as he glanced at the body of an old celestial.

"You knew him?" Asked Dina as she brought the dead body closer to her and inspected, a large fist-sized see-through hole was opened in his chest, the attack must have destroyed his soul alongside his body.

"Not personally, but hey, almost everyone knew everyone," replied Mace with a shake of his head.

"Was he an 'Original'?" She asked.

"No, just a profound Immortal." He sighed.

Frowning, Dina raised her head to glance at the sky, occasional explosions would echo throughout the entire mortal realm, the entire sky was illuminated up by the countless spells as various figures could be seen clashing against one another in an intense battle.

"Tizzy used all of the surviving members to form his avatar, for one of our own to be here, that means something must have happened." She said, her frown deepening as she looked at the sky in worry.

Mace stepped forward and patted her back to calm her down, "Our guys are strong, don't worry too much about it. Besides, the avatar was not perfect, it's not completely impossible for Tizzy to not have employed the Profound Immortals." He said trying to reassure her.

"That's not very comforting." She said as she rolled her eyes at him.

"Uh, well don't forget, we still got Omis and the White Devil on our side, he also broke into the God Realm, they'll be fine." He added.

Letting out a long tired sigh, Dina stored the corpse before turning around to go back. "I'm going back to the sect, I need to confirm something. You be a dear and keep watch over the plane, if any more corpse falls down send it my way okay?" She said before turning around and shooting away in a beam of light not giving Mace any time to argue.

He sighed as he shook his empty gourd half expecting it to be somewhat full before raising his head to look at the raging battle in the heavens.

"Ah, the things I do for love." He shook his head before taking one step and disappearing from his place.

On the other side, Dina quickly arrived at the Knowledge seekers sect, she swiftly made her way to a secluded location in the outskirts of the village, the disciples that came across her all gave her a respectful bow before moving out of the way.

"Did I see wrong? No, that's not possible." She mumbled to herself along the way as she kept shaking her head.

Once she was a distance away, she summoned her pagoda that seemed to appear out of nowhere and hastily walked inside. She did not stop at the first floor and swiftly made her way to her lab.

Once there, she cleared out a giant table before she summoned the black cube once again, it then opened its hideous month revealing a horrifying set of teeth before spitting out four corpses on the table.

All four corpses had one common trait, they all belonged to the 'Hunters' and had silver hair. Dina moved from one corpse to another, carefully examining one before moving to the next.

After a while, the frown on her face only seemed to deepen as she kept shaking her head in disbelief.

"This is ridiculous, how can this be?"

She then ran to a corner where she brought out a small orb, she carefully wiped away the layer of dust that accumulated on top of it before bringing it to one of the corpses.

The orb then shone with a silver color, this caused her eyes to widen as her doubts were finally confirmed, just to be sure she moved from one corpse to another, the orb shining a bright silver light every time.

By the abyss, this is ridiculous.
