Chapter 251: Heaven Rending Legion

The group arrived in front of the Tree, Cross looked around and saw it was absolutely deserted. He frowned and was pushed to the front of the Tree. He pressed his forehead on the trunk and said "I know you're not dead... Come out."

He was gently rolled back and a beautiful woman with a long green dress made of leaves and long golden hair appeared in front of him. She smiled softly and said "You've finally arrived." Cross snorted and said "Barely."

She pursed her lips in amusement and replied "What did you expect? You fought a Late Stage Heavenly God Realm in the Immortal King Peak Realm. Not to mention, you fought 6 Peak Hierarch Traitors with a crippled body. It's a miracle you're even alive!" Cross rolled his eyes and said "Yes, yeas, you had a fun time watching me suffer. Thanks for not helping."

The woman giggled and the 9 elves behind Cross kneeled and trembled in fear. Their King was so rude! Cross tapped his sword arm on the side of the wheelchair as he said "Alright, enough fooling around. Let's get down to business."

The woman smiled and said "You have something in mind?" Cross said "Very simple, you're the World Core here. Close off the Realm to the outside and open the cracks to the Dark Beasts." the woman was stunned and said "Are you serious!? You're going to kill everyone!"

Cross said "Jeez, relax. I know what I'm doing. First things first, summon all the Elves here, even the exiled ones and the little cowards the in the ground." the woman pursed her lips and said "Is that an order?"

Cross nodded and said "Unless you want to be refined into a toothpick for that flame idiot and his gay lover, I suggest you make it quick. I can tell there's not much time left." the woman's mouth twitched into a smile and she raised her hand, Cross rolled next to her and the 9 Elves appeared behind him.

Cross said "Get up." the 9 got up and looked at Cross in awe, who talks to the Tree of Life like that!? Nobody that's who.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed across the entire world.

Across the Immortal World, all the Elves that were in hiding, suddenly disappeared, along with the Butterfly Spirits and the Flower Spirits, along with the other spirit clans.

In front of Cross, trillions of Elves and Spirits appeared.

Lu Mingxuan and his mother and father appeared as well.

Cross looked at the trillions of people, who were scared and startled. He said "Make a platform." the Tree smiled and waved her hand. A wooden platform appeared, raising Cross off the ground. He looked down at the trillions of people and roared "QUIET!"

A Golden Crown appeared over his head and his voice boomed across the entire world. Everybody quieted down and looked at Cross.

Cross said "Isolate the World and Lock it." the woman smiled and did as she was told.

Cross looked down and said "You are all graced with life my the Tree of Life, or as you like to call it, 'Mother'. I'm not going to mince words with you, I don't care for your lives. I'm the King of the Elves, the last Blood Elf in existence, my name is Cross. Maybe some of you heard about me from outside, I can tell you that I am, in fact, not dead but was sent here."

He smirked and said "You're all Spirit Race and whether you want to or not, you're going to get blood on your hands. It's inevitable. Let me put it in perspective for you..." he slowly stood up and revealed his mangled body as he continued "The Great Brahma, or as I like to call him 'Public enemy no. 1', has his greedy little fish eyes on the Tree of Life. I fought against one of his Heavenly God doggies and this was the result."

He laughed and said "All of you spies are very satisfied with my appearance, eh? I can see it in your eyes, that's okay. I'm sure you know of Elven Etiquette, yes? As of right now, the entire Spirit Race is under Martial Law!" he swept his sword arm out and said "Kill all the spies, immediately!"

Billions of Elves, Spirits, and Half-breeds lost their heads and fell to the ground.

Cross' eye glowed and the corpses and blood disappeared, he smiled and said "As you can see, this daddy isn't going to hold your hands and sing peace songs with you! I'm going to put you through Life and Death training! Even if you all die, heh, I have a big family, repopulating isn't a problem."

Whispers exploded amongst the people, one guy shouted "What right do you have?!" Cross said "Kill him." the guy exploded into blood mist and was sucked away, Cross chuckled and said "Anybody have any questions? I'm a very tolerant person, you know."

The 9 Elves behind him chuckled and the crowd was terrified. An old man of the Lava Golem Race asked "You said, you're the King? I don't mean to be rude, but can you prove this?" Cross said "Tree." the woman appeared and said "Hello, I'm the Tree of Life. He is indeed the King."

Cross waved and said "Alright, anyway. Here's what's going to happen. Dryae is going to open a region to the Dark Beasts, and you my little army soldiers are going to fight them for years, 10s, 100s, maybe 1000s. Who knows?"

The woman said "Dryae?" Cross said "That's your new name, congrats." he turned back and said "Any questions?" someone said "We're going to be here for 1000s of years?!" Cross slapped his forehead with the flat of the sword as he said "Silly me, I forgot to mention. The World is locked, Dryae is the World Core, I have Time under my control. A year will pass outside, but who knows many will pass inside, no need to thank me, I know I'm a saint."

Someone asked "Who made you King?" Cross replied "I called dibs, pal. Better luck next time. Next question." someone else asked "Is there any benefits?" Cross said helplessly "You and your benefits, how's this, I won't kill you." the person looked upset and Cross shouted "You stupid kid, you'll be fighting, sharpening yourself for 100s of years! Your cultivation will soar! Do you have shit for brains!? Minimum requirement at the end of the training period will be Innate Celestial Reverend Peak! Are you kidding? We're going to war with 50% of the Immortal World! THE flame pussy Brahma! Ever heard of Holy Pill Palace? Their master, the self-proclaimed Pill God, the Ancestor of Dogs- I mean Pill fire!"

The people muttered between themselves and said "Can we not?" Cross was speechless and said "Oi, Oi, Oi... You people are more ruthless than me! First let me answer your question, No. You are being forced. Why? Because my fist... er... Sword is bigger than you! Also, a minor reason is well you know if the Tree Dies, you'll die so."

That changed everyone's expressions, Cross grinned and said "As this is a very dire time, I will share my very own resources with you. En. Don't be greedy... Actually, it doesn't matter, when you die they'll return to me anyway."

He stomped on the platform and a wood beam shot out from the earth by his side. The beam shot up before curving and forming a '⋂' shape. In the middle a crack spread from the ground to the top of the gate and opened a giant gate to the Inner World.

Cross said "Inside is everything you'll ever need, weapons, resources, blood purifying pool, will sharpening stairs, Ancient Inheritances, etc. This is the change in your little lives, that you've been waiting for. I'm your King, you're all my subjects. Whether you want to or not, everything will change. The World will fear the Spirit race! No longer will the Butterfly Clan be hunted! No longer will you have to hide from the greedy eyes that want your precious Life Sources! Brahma? HAHAHAH! I use his soul as a sacrifice for the countless spirit Races that died from his plots and schemes!"

The World shook from his mad roars, he added "Most of you will die, but the rest will carry your will and live on to fight back against the people who terrorize us! Gods!? I spit on them! Demons?! I use their skulls as wine cups! The Heavens!? I'LL TEAR THEM APART!"

The entire crowd felt their blood boiling, a Lava Golem said "Fuck it! This daddy is going to slaughter Brahma Doggies!" as he walked into the Inner World, after one went in the rest followed with boiling blood and an intense desire to fight.

Cross grinned crazily and said "War Elves, Shadow Elves, Dark Sun Elves, and the rest of you Battle Elves, choose a Leader among you and come to me. Spirit Races, choose one person from each race and all of you come to me. Dryae, bring me down."

The platform came down and dozens of people joined the 9 Elves, Cross grinned and said "Good, Good, Good! Alright, here's what's going down.

Valrun, you'll take the Attacking Elves and Spirit Races and merge them into the [Slaughter Corps].

Lyndis, you'll take all the Archers and merge them into the [Sun Shooting Corps].

Falernas, you'll take all the Healers and Wood Energy users and merge them into the [Undying Healing Corps].

Dain, you'll take all the Defensive Elves and Spirits and merge them into the [Insurmountable Mountain Corps].

Wyn, you'll take all the ones with wings and merge them into the [Heaven Tearing Corps].

Finally, Saya, you'll take all the assassins and merge them into the [Shadow Death Corps].

Got it?"

The 6 nodded and Saya said "What are we gonna be called?" Cross grinned savagely and said "The Heaven Rending Legion." the 6 grinned and Cross said "Go into the Inner World. Saya, show them around and finalize your Corps. and Divisions. This is not a joke." Saya bowed with a fist over her heart and said "Yes, Your Highness." before leading the rest into the Inner World.

Cross sat back in his wheelchair and vomited out a bucketful of blood. Dryae said "Heaven Rending Legion, eh?" Cross rolled his eyes and Lu Mingxuan appeared in front of him, she took a towel and cleaned the blood from his mouth with heart breaking eyes.

Cross smiled and said "Hey, you're back." Lu Mingxuan frowned and said "Not by choice, obviously." Cross' smiled dimmed and Lu Mingxuan held his cheeks saying "Fool, I still love you." he smiled again and she kissed him before saying "You're just such an idiot. How are you going to eat me up like this?"

She shook her head and sighed, Cross laughed and replied "En. You're going to have to eat me up then." Lu Mingxuan smirked and said "Is that a challenge? This Great Aunt will rock your world." Cross looked excited and said "I fucking hope so. Because when I get back to normal, you won't sleep for years."

Lu Mingxuan trembled and said "Years?!" Cross spanked her with the flat of the sword as he said "Decades maybe." Lu Mingxuan paled "Decades!?" Cross laughed and said "Centuries! Millenia! Eons!" before vomiting up blood, she yelped and quickly helped him, not minding the blood that stained her white dress.

What a good woman!

Dryae laughed from the side and Cross looked at her and said "Come here, I promise I won't beat you up!" Dryae spat out her tongue and said "You wish." Cross rolled his eyes and said "Yeah, for sure. Xuan'er, push me to the Tree."

Lu Mingxuan pushed him to the Tree and he smashed his forehead against the trunk, startling Lu Mingxuan. Cross closed his eyes and said "Come on, come on, come on!" an orange glow appeared around the tree and Cross roared "MORE!"

The orange glow shined bright and brighter before shooting into the sky and dying the world orange. He spat out a mouthful of blood and smashed his forehead into the tree, forming a rune on it. He backed off with a bloody forehead and smiled happy saying "That should be good!"

Dryae shook her head and said "Why did I choose you?" Cross was pushed by Lu Mingxuan as he said "Because I'm extraordinarily handsome?" Dryae laughed and shook her head, not dealing with Cross anymore.

Cross looked at the man and woman, who were looking at him with Sora on the man's shoulders. He took a deep breath and slapped himself with the flat of the sword before saying "Xuan'er, take me to them." Lu Mingxuan smiled beautifully and pushed the Wheelchair.
