#2125 - Border battlefield

Emerging from the Nine Cauldrons Secret Realm, Jun Wuxie clearly sensed that the atmosphere throughout the entire imperial dynasty had become very tense.

The prosperous scenes of the past were gone.

Only a few people were walking on the streets, and it was almost impossible to see crowds of people out enjoying themselves.

Everyone was working hard to cultivate, preparing for the cataclysmic torrent.

He opened his palm, and the Nine Cauldrons emerged, transforming into nine rays of light that disappeared into the heavens and earth.

The Nine Cauldrons separately sank into the depths of the earth in different areas of the imperial capital, forming the Nine Cauldrons Qiankun Array.

In an instant, the environment of the entire Canglan Ancient Star was quietly changing.

This change spread rapidly until it covered the entire Canglan Star Region.

The most direct feeling was experienced by all living beings who were cultivating.

They suddenly felt that their understanding of the laws seemed different from before.

Things that were originally difficult to figure out, things that they had been trying to comprehend but could not, at this moment, suddenly had direction and seemed to become much easier.

The dragon vein essence qi born from the earth also continued to rise in quality and level.

The original nine top-grade Saint Ninth-Rank dragon veins directly broke through to the God-level.

Jun Wuxie activated his Rune Dao Pupil Technique to observe the earth of the imperial capital.

The Nine Cauldrons Qiankun Array came into view.

He came to the central area of the Nine Cauldrons Qiankun Array, stretched out his palm, and a verdant tree emerged in his palm, then detached from his palm, rapidly enlarged, and slowly fell, taking root in the earth.

This was the Small World Tree.

Over the years, after finding the exotic soil and primordial qi, the Small World Tree had recovered a lot.

However, in order to recover better, Jun Wuxie had always kept her in a state of slumber.

Now, there was the Nine Cauldrons Qiankun Array constructed by the Nine Heavenly Emperor Cauldrons.

It was just right to borrow the power of the core of the array to help the Small World Tree recover.

"Another world-ending cataclysmic torrent is coming."

The voice of the Small World Tree rang in Jun Wuxie's ears.

Verdant branches stretched out, like gentle hands touching his face.

"Don't be like the Lower Realm again, okay?

Promise me, no matter what, don't put yourself in a desperate situation."

The gentle voice carried a faint sigh, and an indescribable emotion.

"Don't think too much, just absorb the special essence qi of the Nine Cauldrons Qiankun Array to restore your body.

Perhaps, you will be able to transform because of this, breaking through the highest limit you can reach in the future.

When the cataclysmic torrent of the Upper Realm ends, I will take you to the God Ancient World."

"Okay."

The Small World Tree no longer said more.

She had already received the answer she wanted most.

She had originally thought of asking him to take her with him when he went to the God Ancient World in the future, but she didn't expect him to say it proactively.

"The core area of the Nine Cauldrons Qiankun Array has extremely special energy that can help you recover quickly.

You will still be needed in the future in the Borderland City.

I still have important matters to attend to, so I won't accompany you."

After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he turned and left.

He returned to the imperial palace, summoned the ministers, and learned about the current situation of the borderlands.

Afterward, he came to the Star-Picking Platform in the imperial palace and began to impart the Dao.

His voice, like the sound of the laws, resounded in every corner of the Canglan Star Region.

All living beings heard it clearly, wholeheartedly immersing themselves in it, listening to the sound of the Dao, and using it to enter a state of enlightenment.

Jun Wuxie explained the general outline of the path of cultivation and the understanding of the laws, explaining it in great detail, using the most common and easy-to-understand words as much as possible to interpret every detail.

In this way, it was much simpler than all living beings exploring on their own. Every sentence made all living beings feel as if they had been enlightened, and they felt that the places that were previously confused had been suddenly connected and enlightened.

Day after day.

Jun Wuxie's voice of the laws continued for a long time, for a full half a year.

During this time, in various regions of the imperial dynasty and on various ancient life stars, brilliant rays of light continued to soar into the clouds, and tribulation clouds covered the sky every day.

Countless living beings broke through the shackles of their realms and ushered in heavenly tribulations.

Some people's heavenly tribulations were more violent, facing the danger of death.

Jun Wuxie would intervene appropriately.

In this world, people have to undergo tribulation when breaking through major realms.

However, Jun Wuxie has not undergone tribulation for a long time.

Heavenly tribulation has long lost its meaning for him.

However, it is different for other living beings.

Heavenly tribulation can temper the physical body and help the tribulation-transcending person condense true qi of the laws in the process of transcending the tribulation.

Only by successfully passing through the heavenly tribulation can one truly step into the next major realm.

At the same time, after passing through the heavenly tribulation, the various physical states of the tribulation-transcending person will reach a new height!

Half a year later, Jun Wuxie also focused on explaining the Holy Battle Method to the three armies, further enhancing their ability to break through realms.

… …

Borderland Continent, the situation here is slightly more tense than it was some time ago.

As time goes by, the stability of the realm path connecting the dark universe to the Upper Realm is gradually increasing, and the number of dark armies crossing the realm is also increasing, and the realm and number of dark powerhouses crossing the realm are also constantly increasing.

When Jun Wuxie descended to the borderlands, he happened to encounter dark creatures approaching the city, preparing to launch an attack.

Such a scene has happened countless times in the past two years.

The dark army is repelled every time, but after not too long, they will launch a new round of attacks.

The number of armies in the dark universe is extremely astonishing, and they are not afraid of the loss of the army.

Although the main force cannot cross the border now, they still attack the borderlands rhythmically, intending to consume the number of borderland soldiers.

"Lord Jun!"

Greetings, Lord Jun!"

He descended from the sky and landed on the city wall, causing some of the generals on the city wall who knew him to be shocked, and they hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down.

The original generals of the borderlands were also greatly shocked when they heard the words Lord Jun, and they followed suit and knelt down, "We respectfully welcome Lord Jun to the borderlands!"

"Rise, all of you."

Jun Wuxie used his blood energy to lift them up.

Looking at the original generals of the borderlands, he felt very emotional.

Each of these generals looked like they had experienced many vicissitudes, the skin on their faces was very rough, their hands were full of calluses, but their eyes were very sharp.

"You don't have to guard the borderlands, return to the imperial dynasty territory first, and go to the Nine Cauldrons Secret Realm in the imperial capital to cultivate well using the high-quality environment inside.

For such a long period of time, your accumulation has already reached its limit.

It's just that you are suffering from the limited environment of the borderlands, making it difficult to break through the shackles.

Now is a good opportunity to greatly improve your strength in a short period of time.

In this way, you can kill more dark creatures on the battlefield in the future."

The original generals of the borderlands wanted to say something but stopped.

They could no longer remember how long it had been since they had left this borderland continent.

The time was too long, so long that they had forgotten the years, so long that they had forgotten their age.

The realm passage between the dark universe and the Upper Realm has always existed.

It's just that the stability of the passage in the past was very poor, far inferior to what it is now.

Therefore, the number of dark creatures that can cross the border is extremely limited, and the realm is also subject to greater restrictions, and it is impossible for dark creatures of the God Realm to descend.

Even so, for them who are only in the Saint Realm themselves, they still feel great pressure.

Over the long years, they don't know how many times they have fought with dark creatures, so many that they can't count them at all.

I don't know how many soldiers shed blood on the battlefield and sacrificed their lives to guard the borderlands.

They couldn't help but look at the rear of the city.

There was a huge plain there.

On the plain, densely packed and boundless, were all graves, burying the soldiers who had sacrificed since ancient times.

They had long regarded the borderlands as their home.

The residents of the Borderland City are also like this.

These residents were originally not from the borderlands, but descendants of heroes who had resisted the darkness in the past.

In the past, some strong people came to the borderlands to resist the darkness and died here in battle.

After the darkness passed, their family members came to the borderlands to sweep their tombs, and some stayed and never left again.

Thus, the current population size of hundreds of billions in the borderlands was formed.

The Borderland City is a city of soldiers, and children begin to practice and fight against the darkness from the age of three.

"I know what you are thinking in your hearts.

Don't worry about the soldiers and the residents of the borderlands.

I will let the barrier of the imperial dynasty cover the entire borderlands, and at that time they can all enjoy the same high-quality environment as in the imperial dynasty's territory."

"Thank you, Lord Jun!"

The original garrison generals of the borderlands had tears in their tiger eyes.

They had long heard that the environment of the imperial dynasty was extremely good, a paradise for cultivators.

However, although the borderlands are rich in resources, the consumption of resources is too great due to the perennial battles with dark creatures.

The people of the Borderland City live a very hard life.

Looking around, the houses in the Borderland City are very simple, and it is rare to see decent buildings.

Although there are many high-rise buildings, the building materials of the buildings are all ordinary mud, stone, wood and other materials.

All the slightly better materials are used on the equipment of the soldiers.

The people of the borderlands are dressed very plainly, and many people have more than one patch on their clothes.

Although the borderlands have a lot of resource output, and every few years, the various forces of the Canglan Ancient Star will send some resource supplies, it still seems very tight for the consumption of defending the city.

"Eldest Brother."

After those generals left, Little Brahma Voice stepped forward, her beautiful eyes twinkling with clear light, as if she could filter out all the impurities in the world.

"Brahma Voice, what exactly is going on in the borderlands?

The imperial dynasty has sent a lot of resources, but why are the people in the borderlands still dressed so raggedly?"

Hearing this, Brahma Voice shook her head and sighed: "The people here have long been accustomed to a hard life and are very frugal in their daily lives.

Sister Jingya did send people to send resources, but they were all cultivation resources, with no clothes or cloth.

The cultivation resources have already been distributed.

It's just that people have hardly used them, and most of them have been stored away.

Their resources had been scarce for generations, especially for the borderland garrison. Every battle against the dark creatures resulted in a large number of injured soldiers, requiring significant resources for healing.

Furthermore, cultivating soldiers also demanded resources.

Therefore, they had a habit of hoarding resources, to be used for the soldiers when needed.

Jun Wu Xie remained silent, then wrote a decree and sent it back to the imperial court, ordering them to send a large quantity of cloth here.

He looked outside the city, where Hua Qi, Xiao Yezi, Xiao Mo, and the ancient ancestors of the three guardian forces of the Eternal Road, along with the Eternal Sacred Realm legion, were preparing to face the dark army.

Outside the city, the vast battlefield was densely packed with the dark army, like black locusts, stretching as far as the eye could see, with the ranks extending into the dark mist behind.

Standing at the forefront of the dark army were many Divine Realm dark creatures, as well as beings from outside the dark universe.

"Xiao Mo, that little girl, her realm is improving far too quickly.

She has actually cultivated to the Grand Heavenly God Realm…"

Jun Wu Xie's gaze swept over, and he couldn't help but be taken aback.

Even with his extensive knowledge and broad experience, he was still surprised.

It seemed that the Slaughter Bloodline lived up to its name.

Only in slaughter could one grow rapidly.

It was equivalent to other cultivators using special resources to cultivate at high speed.

"Qi'er and Xiao Yezi have also done well these years, reaching the Heavenly God Absolute Heaven Realm and the Extreme Heaven Realm.

Xiao Yezi's realm is almost catching up to Qi'er."

"The two disciples of the Eldest Senior Brother are excellent, especially Xiao Yezi. His body seems to contain endless potential, with the magic of encompassing all rivers. In battle, he can even forcibly absorb the opponent's power, using their strength against them.

Many times, when trapped in desperate situations, he relied on this special ability to turn the tide, counter-killing the dark powerhouses who besieged him."

"The Immeasurable Divine Body is indeed extraordinary. This kind of physique has never appeared before. Perhaps there will be other characteristics in the future, waiting to be stimulated."

As he discussed with Fan Yin, the battle outside the city had already begun.

First, the powerhouses from the dark army came forward, engaging in a fierce battle with Hua Qi, Xiao Yezi, Xiao Mo, and others.

Immediately afterward, the horns of the dark invasion sounded, and the drums of war shook the heavens and the earth.

The dark army, like locusts crossing the border, densely packed, crushed the earth, stirring up dust that blotted out the sky, rushing towards the borderland garrison, who were waiting in formation.

In an instant, the sounds of battle cries echoed across the mountains and rivers.

Between the two sides, there were no long-range divine power attacks.

They all rushed to each other's faces, engaging in close-quarters combat, hand-to-hand fighting.

This was because there was a special order covering the area outside the borderland city.

All cultivators under the coverage of this order would have their destructive power greatly restricted. Only cultivators in the Divine Realm could extend their true essence of the law to a certain distance, and even then it was very limited.

This kind of order suppression was even stronger than the rules within the Ultimate Secret Realm.

On the boundless, vast battlefield, the garrison and the dark legion fought fiercely, their weapons stabbing at each other with fury.

Battlefield duels, dense legions, and the suppression of order made the fighting completely different from the cultivator battles seen on a normal day.

Apart from the Divine Realm powerhouses, the legion's fighting showed no signs of any extraordinary phenomena.

They concentrated all their secret technique power on the weapons in their hands, using the simplest and most direct attack methods.

The contest was about who was faster, reacted quicker, and had stronger penetrating power.

On the battlefield, the blood of dark creatures splattered continuously, and the entire air was filled with a thick blood mist.

Row after row of the dark legion fell, and those behind immediately filled the gaps.

The borderland garrison maintained their formation, pushing forward, charging and killing all the way.

The injured soldiers in the front row were promptly replaced by uninjured soldiers from the back.

On the powerhouse duel side, Hua Qi locked onto the three strongest dark powerhouses, fighting them one against three. The situation looked dire, with frequent brushes with danger.

However, Hua Qi's combat skills had greatly improved.

Clearly, his years of fighting against dark powerhouses in the borderlands had given him plenty of practical experience.

Although it looked dangerous, he maintained his combat rhythm, fighting the three dark creatures to a standstill.

Xiao Yezi, on the other hand, faced the secondary dark powerhouses, a full dozen of them, surrounding him, with all kinds of divine power secret techniques raining down, shaking the battlefield in that area.

The ancient ancestors of the Eternal Road each faced a dark creature in the True God Realm.

Xiao Mo was surrounded by a large number of dark generals, her blood-colored war sword emitting a clear sword cry with each strike.

Blood energy and sword energy crisscrossed, and the will to kill swept across all directions.

Her body was burning with blood-colored flames, and a vision of mountains of corpses and seas of blood appeared around her, like a domain, causing the enemy's secret techniques to be blocked and obliterated each time they attacked.

The slaughter sword in her hand dripped with scarlet blood, and blood beads splattered as she swung it.

Her sword was too fast, the angle tricky and unpredictable, each strike leaving a shocking sword wound on a dark powerhouse.

Her movement technique was strange and unpredictable, and her vision was full of her afterimages as she walked.

The scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood on the ground moved with her footsteps, like a Shura field manifested from hell.
