“The Great Thousand Golden Invitation?” Mu Chen muttered as he looked at the ancient text on the invitation card. He was baffled, as he had no idea what it was.

“I never dreamt that I would receive the Great Thousand Golden Invitation…” Mu Chen exclaimed, while he waved the invitation card at Qing Yanjing, who was just now coming towards him.

“What is it exactly?” Mu Chen then asked curiously, hoping to learn more about it.

Qin Tian smiled, then said with a serious look, “During the Primordial Age, the Immortal Emperor fought the Heavenly Evil Deity and put an end to the invasion of the Extraterritorial Race in the Great Thousand World. The Heavenly Evil Deity, after losing by just a whisker, was sealed in the Northern Wilderness Hill.”

Qin Tian sighed, then added, “However, as the Heavenly Evil Deity had such a strong life force, although he had been sealed by the Immortal Emperor, he was not utterly destroyed. This is the reason that, once every thousand years, the Great Thousand Palace hosts the Great Thousand Alliance Meeting.”

Qin Tian then explained further, “At this time, they send out the Great Thousand Invitations to all of the masters from the Great Thousand World, instructing them to gather at the Northern Wilderness Hill. There, they combine everyone’s powers to activate the seal in order to destroy the remaining life force of the Heavenly Evil Deity.”

He paused to take a breath, then added, “Only the Heavenly Sovereigns have the honor of receiving one of the Great Thousand Invitations. There are different grades of invitation cards, which are gold, silver, and metal. These are graded according to the three Heavenly Sovereign levels, and only the Divine Heavenly Sovereigns receive the gold invitation cards.”

Having said that, Qin Tian’s face became grave. He then said, “The Immortal Emperor has predicted that, only after the seal has been activated for 49,000 years will the Heavenly Evil Deity be utterly destroyed.”

He shook his head, then concluded by saying, “So far, the Great Thousand Palace has sent out the Great Thousand Invitations 48 times. This will mark the 49th time.”

Mu Chen squinted his eyes when he heard all of this. He finally knew the importance of receiving a Great Thousand Invitation.

“Wow. I can’t believe that the Heavenly Evil Deity is so powerful!” Mu Chen took a deep breath and could not refrain from voicing his shock.

When Qin Tian heard what Mu Chen had said, he was silent for a while before he said with a bitter tone, “The Heavenly Evil Deity is indeed powerful. Regardless of the price that we have to pay, we have to kill him while he is still in the seal, as once the seal loses its effectiveness, it will only mean calamity for our Great Thousand World. After all, we no longer have the Immortal Emperor here with us.”

Qing Yanjing, Budur Xuan, and Great Nether Ancestor looked grave. They also knew that it would be disastrous for the Great Thousand World should this happen.

“If the Heavenly Evil Deity is so powerful… Why doesn’t the Extraterritorial Race want to break the seal?” Mu Chen asked with a grave look.

“Of course, they wish to. However, the Immortal Emperor has left a seal on the Northern Wilderness Hill that allows only the living things of the Great Thousand World to go near it. Hence, the Extraterritorial Race has no way to enter it,” Qin Tian explained.

He then squinted his eyes and said, “Recently, the Extraterritorial Race has been stirring up trouble for the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor, probably due to this exact reason.”

Mu Chen’s face turned grim upon hearing this. He finally had a good understanding of the Great Thousand Alliance’s intentions. Whether the Great Thousand World could enjoy true peace depended upon it.

Compared to this, the rest of the matters at hand were nothing. As such, Mu Chen decided to push them aside for the time being.

“When will they be holding the Great Thousand Alliance Meeting?” Qing Yanjing asked grimly.

“In three months.” Light surged in Qin Tian’s eyes and he clenched his fists.

Then, an ominous aura exuded from his body as he said, “This time around, we must utterly eradicate this scourge from the Great Thousand World!”

Mu Chen nodded. The Heavenly Evil Deity was too powerful, and if they did not kill him, all of the living things in the Great Thousand World would never have true peace.

“Will all of the Heavenly Sovereigns in the Great Thousand World receive a Great Thousand Invitation?” Mu Chen then asked.

Qin Tian nodded and said, “Yes. However, only about half of the Heavenly Sovereigns will head for the Northern Wilderness Hill, as they still have to watch out for the Extraterritorial Race.”

“Wow! It sounds like this really is the greatest event in the Great Thousand World!” Mu Chen exclaimed.

If almost half of the Heavenly Sovereigns were going to gather together, it would be a magnificent scene! Compared to this, the events that Mu Chen had attended before paled indeed.

“This is indeed a grand event, as it involves the peace of the Great Thousand World. We have to put aside our differences and resentments for it to be a success.” Qin Tian looked in the direction that Maha Tian had departed to and said, “This is why I have rushed here to stop you and the other two clans from getting into a fight.”

The Maha Ancient Clan, the Budur Ancient Clan, and the Great Spirit Ancient Clan were the three great powers in the entire Great Thousand World. As such, it would be a waste for them to use their strengths on such needless struggles.

Mu Chen understood this, so he said, “Elder Qin Tian, we have settled today’s issue, and In the future, if Maha Tian tried to create trouble for me, I will restrain myself from fighting back.”

After all, Mu Chen had already obtained the Primordial Immortal Body, and since the Maha Ancient Clan could not do anything about it, he decided that he would not be too harsh with them.

When Qin Tian heard this, he was pleased. He then nodded and said gently, “It is good that you are giving due consideration to the overall situation. If Maha Tian goes overboard, our Great Thousand Palace will take actions against him. After all, you are the Demon Slayer King of the Great Thousand Palace.”

Mu Chen smiled. Although Maha Tian was haughty, he was not stupid. After what had taken place this day, he should know that Mu Chen was not someone to trifle with.

“As I have accomplished my task, I will must be on my way. After all, time is running out, and I still have to send the invitation cards to the other Divine Heavenly Sovereigns.” Qin Tian bid Mu Chen farewell before departing.

As he flew away, he yelled back, “In three months, I hope that I will be able to have a good chat with all of you at the Northern Wilderness Hill.”

As Qing Yanjing, Budur Xuan, and Great Nether Ancestor looked at Qin Tian as he departed, they all had complex looks on their faces.

Budur Xuan then murmured, “A storm is coming…” After all, since the Heavenly Evil Deity was like a divine being to the Extraterritorial Race, they would use all of their means to destroy the seal in order to save the Heavenly Evil Deity.

Mu Chen nodded. Although Qin Tian did not go into any of the details, all of them knew that he was taking the Great Thousand Alliance seriously. If this was not so, he would not have personally delivered their Great Thousand Invitation.

“The Extraterritorial Race has been eyeing the Great Thousand World for some time, but I never expected there to be hidden dangers in the Northern Wilderness Hill…” Mu Chen sighed. If he had not already stepped into the Heavenly Sovereign level, he would not even have known about it.

“On any other day, all living things in the Great Thousand World are banned from entering the Northern Wilderness Hill. That place is also known as the Land of All Tombs. There is a group of caretakers in the cemetery, who are are the Immortal Emperor’s men,” Budur Xuan explained.

“Their leader is known as the Undying Lord and is extremely powerful. His strength is comparable to the Flame Emperor’s and Martial Ancestor’s. However, he has to guard the Northern Wilderness Hill, so he has never stepped into the Great Thousand World. Thus, not many people know about him,” Budur Xuan added.

“The Land of All Tombs… Undying Lord…” Mu Chen murmured the words he had just heard.

He was stunned and his face turned grave. The Great Thousand World was filled with so many powerful people!

“If the Extraterritorial Race invades us now, will our Great Thousand World be able to fend them off?” Mu Chen suddenly asked.

Qing Yanjing and Budur Xuan looked at each other before Budur Xuan said, “In terms of overall strength, the current Great Thousand World is as powerful as was during the Primordial Age. You could even say that it is more powerful, as we now have the Flame Emperor, Martial Ancestor, Qin Tian, the Green Shirt Sword Saint, the Undying Lord and many other masters among us. The five ancient clans also have strong bases, as well as many other top powers.”

Budur Xuan paused for a moment, then added, “If the Extraterritorial Race invades our Great Thousand World again, we will be able to fend it off. However, the Immortal Emperor is no longer in the Great Thousand World. But, as long as we can activate the seal and kill the Heavenly Evil Deity, the Extraterritorial Race will not be able to have their way.”

Mu Chen nodded as he muttered, “The Extraterritorial Race must be aware of this…”

The Extraterritorial Race must have known this, so they surely would not allow them to kill the Heavenly Evil Deity. There would most certainly be bloodshed in the Great Thousand Alliance…

When faced with such a situation, Mu Chen could feel the pressure upon him. Thus, Mu Chen’s mind was in turmoil.

At that moment, a small tender hand gently grabbed his palm, and when he turned around, he saw that it was Luo Li. Her face was delicate and clear.

When Luo Li smiled at him, Mu Chen felt her affection for him. This caused him to relax and no longer knit his brows.

He held Luo Li’s hand as he lifted his head to look at the sunset. The clouds were like flames as they reflected in his dark eyes.

Luo Li was such a wonderful person, and with her by his side, no matter how tough it was to deal with the Extraterritorial Race, Mu Chen would fight them fearlessly with his life to protect the Great Thousand World if they tried to destroy it. He grew bolder as he thought to himself…

I have worked my way up for so many years before I reached this stage. I will never allow all of my hard work to be destroyed…

If the devil wants to make its way here, I will fight it!
