Chapter 1539 - Fall of the Palace

Weisheng Moran was still softly mumbling when the little cockroaches in her hand suddenly turned cold. She loosened her grip and noticed that they had frozen up. They were no different from normal chunks of metal now. No matter how much she tried, they didn't react.

"I wonder if he heard what I wanted to tell him...." She looked up at the flaming clouds above that shrouded the world like layers of chains keeping them bound to it. As much as their world provided a home to its denizens, it was also a prison. Nobody would be able to live after leaving their nova source behind.

"The power of the Azurespirit will slowly be absorbed into your body. It'll definitely be of help to you. However, you should never come back until you've fully assimilated it otherwise the divine wondersky race will be able to find us! When you do eventually come back, try to save me then. I hope I can last until your return...."

She tightly clenched her hand around the hibernating insects, not willing to let go one bit, knowing that if they ever came back to life it meant Tianming had returned.

All of a sudden, the elite dreamless celestials suddenly broke into a commotion. She breathed in a breath of cold air, knowing that the ruler of the nation had returned. Looking up, her gaze turned pale. She saw that he had transformed back into his male form, but he looked like he was suffering from a bloody mist that was corroding him. The mist took the form of a revenant grudge that looked like the faces of the dead. His skin, hair, eyes, and everything else were completely dyed red and blood constantly dripped off his body. With the blood grudge of tens of millions of people around him, not a single albus on his body was clean. His expression suggested that he was suffering like never before.

"Ugh...."

Weisheng Moran met his gaze as she inched backward.

"The Azurespirit has been taken away by the divine astralship...." The dreamless celestial emperor glared at her, channeling some of the grudge at her. Had it not been for her giving the Azurespirit to Tianming, this wouldn't have happened. With the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb gone, Tianming would never return as long as the sun emperor continued to be a threat. "Do you know how you've ruined the grand design of our race?! We’re merely a branch! We found this important nova source world.... Our dreamless branch was supposed to be able to achieve greatness, yet you caused the tens of thousands of years we spent to all go to waste!"

His body shook with rage with every word. With a low growl, he grabbed both of her arms up high and continued glaring at her. "Little fish, since this is your mistake, and since your body and soul are part of mine, I’ll let you suffer the pain of the blood grudge from today onward."

"No!" The moment she let out that despairing cry, the dreamless celestial emperor pressed her head to his chest; shockingly, her head began fusing with his body! Eventually, the blood grudge started transferring over.

......

The gigantic head that was the Divine Sun Palace was no longer able to levitate after losing the control mechanism, Solar Wheel. It came smashing down, first falling on the Aeonic Infinidragon Formation, then rolling off of it to the ground; it looked like a decapitated head. When it finally stopped, the two miniaturized nova sources went dormant, causing the light it was giving off to dim. It now looked like the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb had in its initial state. The palace that had supported the absolute domination of the celestial orderians for millions of years had finally stopped working.

This was once thought to be an impossibility by those that lived on Orderia. Even if one could sneak into the Divine Sun Palace, death was a certainty. Who could possibly pull off the feat of stealing the Solar Wheel? Li Wudi was the key. Only he was able to pull off something like this, not to mention the fact that Tianming had just so happened to have the very thing to keep the Solar Wheel out of reach of the sun emperor. Those two miracles combined had ushered in an era in which the celestial orderians had lost their divine astralship! Their most powerful weapon, frozen!

After the sun emperor subdued the crimson-haired man, he gave chase. Initially, people were worried that he would catch up to the Ninedragon Imperial Tomb. But when they saw him fall from the sky without being able to do anything, the Myriad Solar Sects cheered.

"The Divine Sun Palace is no more!"

"The nightmare that our ancestors suffered from is finally gone!"

As long as the Divine Sun Palace was in play, even first-rate sects that didn't have grade-eight divine formations like the Divinemight Empire stood no chance against the celestial orderians. But with it gone, even if the celestial orderians had more troops and a super elite like the sun emperor, they would at least be on an even playing field. Perhaps even second-rate factions would dare to resist them now.

First was the triumph of the hundred thousand Dragon Imperials, then came the theft of the Solar Wheel. The billion plus people in the Myriaddragon Mountains cried tears of joy as they breathed sighs of relief. Now there was only one enemy left: the sun emperor himself.

Transmission stones kept coming from the north, reporting about the celestial orderian armies' incursions into their territories. Fortunately, those of the Myriad Solar Sects had hid within their respective defensive formations, so the wave of attacks didn't do much for now. If that army eventually made their way to the Myriaddragon Mountains, the Myriad Solar Sects might have a chance to pull off a pincer attack. Without the Divine Sun Palace, even grade-six formations would be able to hold up rather well. Not to mention, the celestial orderian troops were scattered across many fronts, after all.

Either way, the celestial orderians had been defanged and declawed. Even though they were still a force to be reckoned with, they were no longer an irresistible force that was hopeless to resist. Virtues like courage and determination were finally viable again. As such, while they were still hiding in their formations out of fear of the sun emperor, people were no longer afraid of the celestial orderians as a whole. As they expected, the sun emperor attacked the Myriaddragon Mountains alone out of rage over losing his Solar Wheel.
