Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined Chapter 516 -516-Formation of the Celestial Light God Realm Alliance

Kichin couldn't connect with the Office of Light and headed back to the capital, his face shadowed by gloom.

Yet, the instant he entered the palace...

Boom!

Tina, commanding six million Sacred Radiance rank void warlocks along with tens of millions of Sage Kings, hundreds of millions of God Kings, and Divine Cleric rank experts, smashed through the border with brute force and charged straight into the depths of Devers’ capital, aiming directly at the imperial city.

"Turn on the four-directional guardian magic array!"

Kichin barked out the desperate command.

Two quasi-Sage Masters emerged from the imperial city, calling forth the World Relic Whip of Judgment.

Right after that, four massive illusions materialized high in the skies over the capital.

To the north, the Infernal Dragon from the ancient dragon realm soared upward, its vast wings eclipsing the heavens, its might utterly dominating.

Along the southern frontiers, the Sky Griffon extended its wings wide, unleashing fierce winds that tore apart the clouds.

In the west, the Abyssal Scorpion-Lion crouched low, its venomous tail stabbing into the emptiness.

Within the Eastern Domain, the Nightmare Beast unleashed its shadowy veil, engulfing the light in a surging wave.

These four beastly illusions drew strength from the Devers Divine Empire's national might, rendering them extraordinarily formidable.

"You're courting death!"

Ares’ form ascended from the earth.

His crimson battle axe slammed into the shield, triggering a collapse across the capital's overhead sky.

"How can this be? There's no way to hold it back..."

"Is this nothing more than a desperate fight?"

The inhabitants of the capital stared upward at the unfolding chaos.

Although the four beast arrays held great power, they paled in comparison to the royal palace’s defensive array sourced from Olympian God Mountain.

Not even the royal array had managed to halt Crossbridge Empire; what chance did these have?

...

Flame Eagle Clan Territory.

Clan Leader Boild scanned the missive from the Office of Light and felt the upheavals rocking Devers Divine Empire, uncertainty gripping his chest.

"Crossbridge Empire struck so swiftly. They likely won't halt their advance without a fight."

"If Devers crumbles, our turn could come right after."

An elder Sage Lord rumbled gravely. "Leader, even though the Peace Committee wants to drag us into pinning down Crossbridge Empire, it's time we pick a side."

Earlier, their strategy had been to remain neutral in the clash between Crossbridge Empire and the Peace Committee, holding out until the Peace Committee’s headquarters sorted things out.

Plus, the Primordial Giants had stepped in already!

They ought to crush Crossbridge Empire under their weight.

Yet in truth, Crossbridge Empire unleashed a colossal assault on Devers Divine Empire before the Peace Committee’s headquarters or the Primordial Giants could show up, boldly revealing their hunger for conquest.

This crushed any hopes they held of staying on the periphery.

Should they linger until the Peace Committee’s headquarters arrived, Crossbridge Empire might already be knocking at their gates.

Given their present strength, letting the enemy conquer them sequentially would spell their own doom.

"I propose we move without delay!"

"I agree..."

The rest of the ancient Sage Lords expressed their support with nods.

"Inform the Office of Light that should we ally, our clan commits only to holding the line until the Peace Committee’s experts get here."

Deep inside the clan lands, amid an infinite ocean of boiling lava, a dim silhouette abruptly voiced its thoughts.

Boild and the Sage Lords pivoted and paid homage to the presence amid the molten waves.

The voice belonged to the Flame Eagle Clan’s forebear—the Lord of the Blazing Eagle!

"Ancestor, what if the other groups refuse?"

A Sage Lord inquired.

The Lord of the Blazing Eagle responded at a measured pace.

"In this crisis, it serves everyone's benefit. This is a shared crisis, and they'll have to consent, willing or not."

Boild grasped the reasoning and followed up with a question,

"Ancestor, could you possibly contact the others... to reach out to them?"

With the Lord of the Blazing Eagle’s prestige, forging pacts with the top authorities of rival groups would prove far more successful than their own efforts.

The Lord of the Blazing Eagle offered no denial.

Following a short pause for reflection, he linked mentally with key entities buried in Cloudcrown Sanctum, the Primordial Sacred Land, and the Starlight Colonnade.

These represented the Celestial Light God Realm’s supreme powers, beings at the Sage Lord level.

Upon getting the transmission, the Sovereign of the Cloud Realm in Cloudcrown Sanctum consented as well.

Indeed, once the Flame Eagle Clan committed, they had no choice but to join.

Furthermore, countless lesser groups got drawn into the fray.

While the Starlight Colonnade itself hadn't mobilized openly, entities such as the Star God Merchant Guild under its banner announced their intent to band together against Crossbridge Empire.

...

Sea God Temple.

The Temple Master, fresh from the Heavenly Mountain, caught wind of the developments too.

Moreover, the Lord of the Blazing Eagle and Cloudcrown Sanctum’s leader had reached out to the temple’s high priest.

After a brief deliberation, the Temple Master declared, "We'll accept their conditions temporarily."

"Is the Temple Master planning to challenge Crossbridge Empire?"

The God of Wisdom, the War Executor, and the High Priest of the Temple exchanged baffled glances.

"Let them band together!"

"Prior to the Peace Committee headquarters and the Primordial Giants showing up, we can sweep them aside in a single strike."

From the flower garden, the Temple Master’s gentle tones resounded, "I believe this aligns perfectly with Crossbridge Empire’s scheme as well."

"Without our participation, it's doubtful this coalition will solidify."

The others caught the underlying tactic at once and bobbed their heads in approval.

...

Icecrystal Palace.

White Lady Shirino got the communication too.

But prior to her deciding, Alvin from the Ice Sea’s depths presented her with a foresight emblem.

Once she perused it, she eagerly committed to the alliance.

...

The heads of the diverse factions convened at the Peace Committee to hash out specifics.

Should Aurek engage directly, or should the genuine Sage Master Kaos get involved, the Sage Lords under the Lord of the Blazing Eagle’s guidance would counter.

The alliance’s pooled might encompassed six Sage Masters, boosting the Office of Light’s count to seven, sufficient to counter one or two Sage Masters.

Concurrently, groups dispatched their veteran Sage Lords, Sage Lords, and Divine Oracles to confront Crossbridge Empire’s elite fighters and its 6.5 million Divine Radiant troops.

Cloudcrown Sanctum, Eternal Winter Divine Empire, and similar groups would deploy their premier armies to clash with Crossbridge Empire’s forces.

This intelligence swiftly filtered to Crossbridge Empire via the Sea God Temple and Eternal Winter Divine Empire.

Lucio and Philip promptly devised fitting countermeasures.

...

Devers Divine Empire’s domain.

As the Ouros Disc activated, the subjugated Office of Peace hammered the four-beast guardian shield.

One after another, the mighty beast illusions fragmented, while the Devers Divine Empire’s core strength faced heavy suppression.

Right when Kichin teetered on the edge of hopelessness,

A colossal energy barrier abruptly cloaked the Devers Divine Empire’s airspace.

Simultaneously, the Office of Light, Clan Leader Boild, Cloudcrown Sanctum’s sovereign, General Terrence, the Star God Merchant Guild’s head, and the chiefs of the Primordial Sacred Land’s three holy temples plus seven hidden realms all materialized!

The Sea Temple Master and White Lady Shirino showed up too!

Countless Sage Lords and ancient Sage Lords from the assorted groups converged as well.

Divine Radiants and Divine Oracles swarmed in endless ranks.

Kichin froze briefly, then his features brightened with elation!

...

Out from God Mountain’s royal palace, the Empire’s array of mighty personages traversed the realms to join the fray.

Be it the Office of Peace or the fresh allies like Sherana, Lora, and fellow Divine Oracles and Sage Lords, all bore grave expressions without a hint of ease.

Crossbridge Empire boasted immense power, yet arrayed against it stood almost every top force in the Celestial Light God Realm!

This amounted to defying the entire realm, leaving no one assured of triumph.

"Your Majesty..."

Lora glanced at Sherana, words catching in her throat.

"Hold on, we'll watch how things unfold first."

Sherana cut in, her gaze locked on the conflict zone.

"Crossbridge Empire, halt your advance right here. The Olympian God Mountain lands suffice for your existence. Persist in your growth, and the Celestial Light God Realm won't stand by passively."

The Sovereign of the Cloud Realm delivered the icy admonition.

Avoiding battle would be ideal if possible.

The resolution could fall to the approaching Peace Committee headquarters or the Primordial Giants’ potential return.

By staging the showdown in Devers Divine Empire, they sought to spare their own domains from ruin and devastation.

Harry hovered aloft, his icy stare raking across the shielded powerhouses, delivering the ultimate ultimatum.

"Convey the Emperor’s edict to the Crossbridge Emperor!"

"Yield to the Empire and earn mercy!"

"Any who obstruct Crossbridge Empire’s path will face merciless execution!"

"Ponder deeply and choose wisely!"
