......
At this very moment.
The Ice Cold Divine Dynasty was a scene of bustling brilliance.
The Ice Emperor, while not the strongest in the desolate ancient world.
Was still a hegemon in his own right.
In the vast and boundless desolate ancient world, he was revered by countless living beings, with countless gods and demons prostrating themselves under his command.
Now, it was the Ice Emperor's Yuanhui birthday, and he had widely invited relatives and friends.
Although the birthday celebration had not officially begun.
Forces from all sides had come to offer their congratulations, and in addition, those star regions that had submitted to the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty had basically presented lavish gifts.
"The Eastern Moon Star Region offers three million high-grade divine stones and three semi-ancient god pills!"
"The Heavenly Wealth Star Region contributes one thousand Heavenly God Ninth Heaven pills."
Within the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty, gods and demons were recording and tallying the treasures offered from various places.
The various lists were densely packed, making people envious.
"The Ancient Yuan Star Region presents... hmm? A letter?"
A god and demon picked up a letter, frowning slightly.
The term "tribute" was used by star regions that were subordinate to the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty.
"Present" was used by those star regions that were not under the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty.
The letter sent by the Ancient Yuan Star Region was clearly a notification, but the gods and demons of the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty were so busy receiving gifts that they treated the letter as a tribute, mixing it with the treasures from other star regions. Now that it was being tallied, it made the tallying god and demon somewhat puzzled.
"Statement of Claim, addressed to the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty..." The god and demon read out the words on it. He didn't finish reading, but his expression had already turned furious.
"Does this Ancient Yuan Star Region seek death?" The god and demon revealed a sneer.
On the day of the Ice Emperor's birthday, this Ancient Yuan Star Region actually issued such a statement of claim, truly not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth!
One must know that star regions float in the starry sky, unlike the great world. They are constantly being developed with the evolution of the Milky Way, and at the same time, they are constantly declining. Resources on them are scarce, and there are no supreme experts sitting in them. In front of a force possessing ancient gods, a star region can only be slaughtered.
Having joined the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty for tens of thousands of years, this was the first time this god and demon had seen a star region daring to provoke an ancient god force.
This god and demon casually discarded the envelope to the side.
However, he quickly picked it up again with a cold smile on his face.
"Since you seek death, then don't blame me for reporting it to Lord Ice Emperor." This god and demon beckoned to the others and headed towards the Ice Emperor's Palace.
In his opinion, this provocative letter from the Ancient Yuan Star Region, placed among the offerings, was clearly seeking death, so he would naturally fulfill their wish.
Soon, he entered the Ice Emperor's Palace.
"Lord Ice Emperor, there is a daring star region called Ancient Yuan Star Region, and this is the envelope submitted by that star region."
This god and demon respectfully bowed. In front of him stood a middle-aged man exuding the aura of an ancient god. His cultivation of the Ice Cold Dao had reached a superb level, and the space was faintly frozen.
"Oh?" The Ice Emperor was about to leave this place. His third son, Ice Tianlong, had obtained an ancient god relic and brought it back. Even the Ice Emperor, as an ancient god, attached great importance to such relics. Therefore, he was preparing to personally inspect it, but he was stopped by this god and demon, and he frowned slightly.
"Read it out. What is so daring about it?" The Ice Emperor was in a good mood, as it was his Yuanhui birthday and his son had brought back an ancient god relic. He waved his hand, not caring.
"Yes, Lord Ice Emperor."
"...Ice Tianlong of the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty destroyed the Sky Territory Realm of my Divine Profound Imperial Dynasty, which was of considerable value, and at the same time attempted to kill members of the Divine Demon Division of my Imperial Dynasty, an aggravated crime. The Ice Cold Divine Dynasty must hand over four hundred star regions and transfer them to my Imperial Dynasty within three days, and publicly apologize to the starry sky. Otherwise, the Divine Demon Division of my Imperial Dynasty will set foot on the territory of Ice Cold and administer punishment!" This god and demon began to read out the content that he had not looked at carefully before.
As the god and demon's voice fell, the Ice Emperor's face was extremely gloomy, and strands of extremely cold aura began to emanate.
"How dare they!"
............
A thousand thanks to all the big bosses for their support.
Chapter 208: Assemble the Army, Head to the Desolate Ancient Star River
............
A hint of coldness appeared in the Ice Emperor's eyes.
"Lord Ice Emperor, according to this subordinate's investigation, this Divine Profound Imperial Dynasty is not on the Starry Sky Power List compiled by the Ancient Divine Court. This subordinate also searched the records when this Ancient Yuan Star Region came, and it doesn't seem to be a star region near the Desolate Ancient Great World."
"And this mentions the Third Prince. According to this subordinate's guess, it may be that the Third Prince accidentally bumped into that remote force when he went out. That force, not knowing whether to live or die, came to provoke us..." the god and demon said in a low voice.
"Oh?"
"Then what do you think is the reason why a force that doesn't even have the qualifications to be on the Starry Sky Power List dares to provoke the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty?" The Ice Emperor's face was conspicuously cold, but his state of mind was strong, and he thought of other aspects.
"Maybe that Sky Territory Realm is their main domain..." the god and demon said, but his voice became lower and lower, and a hint of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.
The Ice Emperor's words made his body tremble slightly.
That's right.
The Starry Sky Power List is a list set up by the Ancient Divine Court to distinguish forces with ancient gods sitting in them from ordinary starry sky forces.
And the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty is a powerful force ranked on the Starry Sky Power List.
Since the Divine Profound Imperial Dynasty sent the letter here.
They must know the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty's prestige, and they must also know that there are ancient gods in the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty. Then, a force without ancient gods dares to provoke the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty, and it's during the Ice Emperor's birthday...
The meaning of this is much greater.
In just an instant, the god and demon thought of some hostile forces of the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty.
This letter from the Divine Profound Imperial Dynasty is very likely to be used by these hostile forces to disgust the Ice Emperor.
At this thought, the god and demon quickly knelt on the ground.
"It was this subordinate's negligence. I hope Lord Ice Emperor will forgive me!"
The god and demon was somewhat terrified, initially he had not anticipated this at all.
"It's okay, examine it carefully. Any more of these provocative things can be discarded directly. After all, this is my birthday, and there are many forces in this Eastern Wilderness who are unwilling to see it, and may interfere in various ways." The Ice Emperor waved his hand, and the mood that had been affected by the content of the letter gradually calmed down.
The timing of this letter was too coincidental.
If it were at other times, the Ice Emperor would have paid attention to it.
But it was during his birthday, and the enemies of the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty should not sit idly by.
"Yes, Lord Ice Emperor." The god and demon withdrew from the Ice Emperor's Palace in fear and trepidation.
And after he left.
The Ice Emperor stepped across an unknown distance and came to a vast divine soil.
Here floated an ancient star, magnificent and huge, and strands of ancient god aura permeated from inside the ancient star.
"It really is an ancient god relic, and it's not an ordinary ancient god relic. Its owner is likely to be a Second Heaven ancient god!"
"My son Tianlong, truly has the appearance of an ancient god. In just ten thousand years, he has cultivated to the semi-ancient god realm, and after going out once, he can actually bring back such a treasure. This is the trend of gathering luck. If the Starry Sky Great World is revived, perhaps Tianlong has the hope of immortality!" A hint of joy appeared on the Ice Emperor's face.
Ice Tianlong was the most outstanding offspring he had had in 200,000 years.
Whether it was cultivation or luck, he was extremely satisfied.
As for the statement of claim from the Divine Profound Imperial Dynasty, he didn't take it to heart at all, and didn't even mention it to Ice Tianlong.
The time stated in the statement of claim coincided with his birthday.
At that time, many ancient god forces friendly to the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty would gather in the Desolate Ancient Great World.
No one would dare to come and cause trouble at all.
............
Two days passed in a row.
Divine Demon Division.
Tai Huang and others sat high in the first seat.
Waiting for the news from the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty.
"It's been two days, it seems that the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty does not intend to fulfill our statement of claim."
Although the deadline had not yet arrived, the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty had no movement, obviously in a posture of not intending to fulfill it.
"Perhaps, they see that we are not a force on the Starry Sky Power List, and that's why they are so dismissive." An ancient god Supreme Elder spoke.
The Heavenly Void Realm hardly has any interaction with the outside world.
The Divine Profound Imperial Dynasty has never truly entered the starry sky.
The Ancient Divine Court cannot know everything in the starry sky.
For various reasons, the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty may not take it to heart after receiving our notification.
"Dismissive?"
"We can also take this opportunity to use the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty as a stepping stone to spread the prestige of the Imperial Dynasty throughout the starry sky."
A sneer appeared on the corner of Tai Huang's mouth.
"Assemble the army, since the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty is unwilling to cede these four hundred star regions, then we will personally take action and divide the territory of the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty into the Imperial Dynasty!"
Now that the statement of claim had been issued, whether the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty accepted it or not, they would not let the other party go.
Although the strength of the ancient gods was extremely strong, it required a lot of manpower to take over such a vast territory. Therefore, they assembled the demon-human legion, the Imperial Dynasty's elite divine demon army, and the Divine Demon Division's guards, the three main forces, preparing to step into the Desolate Ancient Star River.
"Report!"
"We have received news from the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty that the Ice Emperor has confirmed that he will begin hosting the Yuanhui birthday banquet the day after tomorrow, with a time limit of one month. Within this month, the main force of the Divine Dynasty will be concentrated in the Desolate Ancient Great World to maintain order for the birthday banquet, and some of the Divine Dynasty's soldiers guarding the outer star regions will also be transferred."
A Divine Demon Division guard returned from the outside and reported.
"Oh? This is a good opportunity!"
The four ancient god leaders of the Divine Demon Division looked at each other, a strange color flashing in their eyes.
They were just preparing to assemble an army to kill into the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty.
And the Ice Cold Divine Dynasty was preparing to open up its defenses!
