Capítulo 281: War Begins - 281
Over the next few days, many different beings on the side of the Heaven world received letters requesting their assistance.
There were famous cultivators, up and coming geniuses, and hidden old men. Even beasts and supreme beasts in the Heaven world were called to action.
On the side of the beast world, only beasts were involved. The supreme beasts and the beasts had never once seen eye to eye.
Despite the disadvantage in terms of numbers of races, there were many more strong fighters in the beast world. While Heavenborns dominated the Heaven world and the Heaven worlds territories, many different species of beasts dominated many different areas.
The most important and powerful places were usually under the rule of Bi Chong, but there were many places only slightly less powerful than the cities with one species ruling.
Along with the much higher reproduction of the beasts, the Heaven world was highly outnumbered.
Luckily, the rules of war slightly alleviated that concern, but more beings meant higher chances of talents.
In the next few days, camps were established on the edge of the Heaven worlds and the beast worlds territories. Both sides created a single, huge camp at their respective edges.
Then, Bi Chong and Tian Ren met to discuss the allocation of squares.
They kept the 500 squares closest to them at the beginning. After a few minutes of arguments, they agreed over the placement of different level zones.
The group battle zones would mostly be on the outermost squares. In the middle sections, individual zones would rule.
Both Bi Chong and Tian Ren went to their camps. Then, the official announcement of the war, along with a wall of rules placed in the camps, were set out.
The war would last a thousand years. At the end of that time period, the war would end and the squares held would be considered the world's territory.
The war started in ten days.
Over those ten days, more and more known faces appeared. There were an equal amount of equally powerful unknown people.
"Is that flame lord Nu Hen? I heard he once killed three people on the same level at the same time." One person pointed out as a man in red robes flew into the camp.
"What about the old man beside him? He seems familiar, but I can't give a name." One asked.
"You fool. That is flame lord Nu Hen's father in law. In his youth, he shined just as bright as flame lord Nu Hen." An old man scolded.
Among the new arrivals, a relatively unknown person by the name of Guang Fu appeared. No commotion broke out when he arrived, nor did anyone specifically point him out.
Although he moved around a lot, he mostly spent his time helping out mortals. Although he became known among mortals as a result, very few cultivators ever interacted with mortals. Those who did were lowly Qi gathering cultivators.
Guang Fu did not mind at all. He quietly sat down in a chair and watched as more famed people arrived.
He also occasionally took glances at Tian Ren. Although Tian Ren may not remember him due to Zhou Fan's memory blurring technique, he could clearly remember Tian Ren. Of course, he had always known Tian Ren, the sect master of the Heaven Sect and the first Heavenborn.
Guang Fu did not know that he had been spotted by both Heaven and Tian Ren long ago.
Tian Ren occasionally glanced over with his divine sense. He felt a sense of familiarity from Guang Fu, but after being unable to place it, he just assumed it was because he had been keeping tabs on him.
On the eighth day before the war, a presence much greater than those before her appeared.
"Is that the wife of Tian Ren?! Even she is participating in this war?!" A man yelped out in shock.
Tian Ren's wife had always been out of public sight due to her own enjoyment of peace, but she was literally the mother of all heavenborns. It was impossible to not know her as much as it was impossible to not know Tian Ren, the father of all heavenborns.
Tian Ren's wife warmly smiled at her descendants as she flew over to Tian Ren and stood by his side.
She had reached the 3rd level of the space shattering realm and was a valuable asset in the war.
Although many more famed people arrived, none compared to Tian Ren's wife.
The 10 days soon passed as the first people were called to war. Although there were many many powerful cultivators that had arrived, only those just below the most powerful per realm were sent out in the first wave.
Those that were the most powerful in their realm would be trump cards.
Although there were many in the realms leading up to the soul formation realm, the number of void traversing and space shattering realm cultivators were very limited on both sides.
On the heaven worlds side, they had 100 void traversing cultivators, which was surprisingly good, and 7 space shattering cultivators, Tian Ren, his wife, and 5 more.
On the beast worlds side, they had 500 void traversing cultivators and 20 space shattering cultivators.
Their numbers were overwhelming.
Although only half of the 98 void traversing realm squares in total were defended on each side, both of the sides' single space shattering realm square was defended.
These squares were important, but all of the current focus was on the nascent soul realm squares.
Guang Fu did not go yet. He was assigned an offensive role.
As both sides' defense got settled in, the first waves of offense were released. The group battle areas were quickly filled with fighting. They each had a certain number of people allowed, but anyone could join at any time. Most of the cultivators were stationed there.
Only the talents or those extremely powerful in their realm remained near the individual squares.
One or two people at a time were sent forward to go attack. Eventually, Guang Fu received an order and moved out.
