Chapter 1916

The wooden building had been found at just the right time to save them from certain extinction. No doubt, Tianming's part in defeating the voidheart worm played a gigantic part in it.

"Honestly speaking, I can't see how we can lose if we manage to extend the range of the Sky Palace Formation. Even though we'll still lack cultivation resources in the long term, that's a matter we'll only have to contend with decades from now," Long Wanying said.

They still had enough resources, caeli especially, to last for some time, as most of the cultivators had evacuated prior to the celestial orderian attacks. Not to mention, an area that was ten times the size of Myriaddragon Mountains would still possess a decent amount of nova source, and the occupying armies of the enemy still hadn't had time to exploit the resources there yet. Her estimate of decades was incredibly conservative, as they could potentially go a few centuries with the resources they already had, though that didn't mean being cooped up in one area would be comfortable.

Tianming spread the news to gather at the Voidsky Realm using Yin Chen. Anyone that received word would just have to head south.

"Everyone that’s part of the Myriad Solar Sects will have some friends. If they use transmission stones to notify each other on top of Yin Chen giving out notices, we shouldn't be leaving anyone behind. The normal celestial orderian troops will need even more time than the three hundred million elites from before to head south, so we can still make it." Even so, Tianming didn't put off expanding the Sky Palace Formation. "Let's go!"

The billions of gods who had just suffered a nightmarish invasion by the celestial orderians had finally received some good news. Wave after wave of people headed toward the Voidsky Realm near the south pole of the sun. The flaming pillar that emerged from the south pole had become a symbol of hope for those who were running for their lives. Those who were too slow would probably perish on the way, so nobody dared to dally lest the sun emperor's troops catch up to them.

They all craved to survive and rise up another day. Not to mention, hiding in the wilderness was no way to live, especially compared to the safety provided by a defensive formation. Most of them hadn't even seen a grade-nine divine formation before. Not to mention, they would be even safer from the invasion of Skywolf, thanks to the Sky Palace Formation and the Flameyellow Guard Formation. Going to a safer place was a no-brainer, and people flocked to the south in an endless stream. The Saintdragon Emperor and the rest were also pumped to hear the news.

"The Myriad Solar Sects finally have a place to fight the celestial orderians and Skywolf to the death from! And it’s even the Sky Palace Formation, of all things!"

It was the greatest news to grace them since the fall of the Myriaddragon Mountains, especially for the Empyrean Sword Sect and a few others that didn't even stay to fight the celestial orderians for real and instead chose to evacuate. They had left their homes to survive, but now they survived for the chance to take back their homes!

Half a month later, Tianming emerged from the wooden house to find the Voidsky Realm packed with people. The Myriad Solar Sects looked like they had been restored to their former glory. Long Wanying had informed him that there were more than twenty billion fighters in the Voidsky Realm. The sun was incredibly large, much larger than the Flameyellow Continent ever was, which was why the Voidsky Realm alone could hold so many people. The fact that it could become a new stronghold for them to fight back from showed that Tianming's decision to evacuate instead of fighting to their deaths was the right one. They had managed to retain most of their forces.

"It’s no wonder I’ve gotten so many more Omnisentient Threads without doing much lately. There's around twenty billion of them now," Tianming muttered. The new ten billion people joined the other ten billion that were already with him and heard a lot about his amazing exploits. Coupled with the newfound sense of security the Sky Palace Formation provided, their faith grew. Their prior despair and desperation made for fertile soil in which faith thrived. In a way, Tianming had won them over while they were feeble.

Regardless, it was still a good thing that he had formed a bond with them. He found that everyone inside the formation seemed to radiate hope. Finally finding a reason to keep fighting, many of them invested all of their time in cultivating and refining their basics.

"They all used to be from different factions, with some having generations of grudges with each other, but now all of them are fighting for survival shoulder to shoulder!"

The Voidsky Realm was filled with life and activity, making for a merry environment that all of them had contributed to. It was hard to imagine them building this atmosphere after their crushing loss at the Myriaddragon Mountains. Tianming was happy for their sake, as well as his own.

"Rest assured. The Saintdragon Emperor, Northdipper Swordsage, and the rest have all returned to the formation. Leave the matters out here to us," Long Wanying said.

"Very well. I'll be counting on you seniors," Tianming said.

"How are the celestial orderians doing so far?"

"They stopped heading south. They probably already know that it'd be pointless." The fact that the Sky Palace Formation had expanded its range was indicative of Tianming defeating the voidheart worm. The Myriad Solar Sects would be far harder to deal with now, compared to when they were huddled up in the Myriaddragon Mountains.

"I bet the sun emperor's still dreaming of killing you. Looks like the alliance will prevail against the other two sides after all," Long Wanying said.

Some time back, Tianming had been involved in a three-way conflict with Bodhi and Sovereign Xi. However, he couldn't afford to antagonize either side back then, as the common folk of the Flameyellow Continent could’ve been wrapped up in the trouble. But this time around, the Myriad Solar Sects were much stronger, having the Sky Palace Formation to back them up.

"Well, not exactly.... We'll probably chase Skywolf away before settling our differences with the sun emperor." Even if the sun emperor was a madman, Tianming was certain of one thing: he would never sell the sun out, and neither would Tianming. It was more than likely that they would actually work together to drive Skywolf away first.

Tianming was quite relieved by the present circumstances and left the rest of the matters to Long Wanying and the others. Instructing Yin Chen to continue monitoring the celestial orderians, he returned to the wooden building.
