#2499 - Emperor's Power

For several days in a row, Jun Wu Xie stayed inside the Eight Nine Mysterious Palace.

Mu Lian Yue was still in cultivation, currently冲击冲刺 the Primordial God Realm.

In the Sunset Dynasty, apart from the border areas where battles were constant, the rest of the dynasty was peaceful during these days.

The Nightmare Clan remained within their territory and did not venture out.

Hua Shao was recuperating from his injuries within the Nightmare Clan.

Over the past few days, his injuries had improved somewhat, and his complexion was slightly better than before, but he was still somewhat pale.

During these days, he was both healing and waiting for Jun Wu Xie to invade the Nightmare Clan.

However, several days had passed, and Jun Wu Xie still had not appeared.

Could it be that Jun Wu Xie was unaware of his relationship with the Nightmare Clan?

He pondered over it, unable to determine what was happening.

Was it that Jun Wu Xie really hadn't discovered anything, or even suspected his connection to the Nightmare Clan?

Or was it that Jun Wu Xie actually knew but didn't plan to come to the Nightmare Clan?

If it was the latter, then this person was being too cautious.

Although he had never had contact with Jun Wu Xie before, he still knew some things about him and had heard about his growth experiences.

For such a person not to suspect the Nightmare Clan at all didn't seem logical.

With his wisdom, how could he ignore it?

"This person is extremely strong in this God-Ancient World, and he also has the Alliance Fortress behind him.

The more cautious he is, the more difficult it is to kill him.

Could it be that I have to join forces with other forces?

By then, my Azure Water Sect will only be able to share the credit with other forces…

I wonder when the envoy sent by the Sect Master will arrive, and who will be sent?

Will it be one of the best among our core disciples, or a true disciple from a certain lineage?"

Hua Shao pondered to himself, feeling somewhat impatient.

As time passed, this round of dark invasion was about to come to an end.

At that time, the Alliance Fortress would be able to free up its hands to help Jun Wu Xie.

He hoped that the people from his sect could arrive before this round of dark invasion ended.

When that happened, he could seize the opportunity and directly attack the Sunset Imperial City.

Taking advantage of the Alliance Fortress being held back by the dark powerhouses, he would kill Jun Wu Xie!

Once this opportunity was missed, he would only be able to cooperate with other forces in the future to ensure complete success.

Although that would be very stable, the credit would have to be shared equally. How could it be as good as his own sect taking the lion's share of the credit?

Their Heavenly Fiend Great World, all the major forces, were all ordered to come here.

As long as Jun Wu Xie died, no matter which force killed him, the other forces would get some credit, but the force directly involved in the kill would get the main credit and receive special rewards from the Great Emperor.

If they joined forces with various forces, then these special rewards would be divided into many shares.

"Go and see if you can sense any fluctuations within the World Passage."

Hua Shao said to the powerhouse guarding him.

The powerhouse nodded, left the valley, soared into the air, and disappeared into the mountains.

…

At the same time, in Ning Province of the Secret Realm.

Since yesterday, the people and soldiers of Ning Province City had been feeling nervous.

Now, throughout Ning Province, the tall city walls were full of troops, with personnel deployment several times more dense than usual.

It could be seen that many heavy anti-siege rune weapons were placed on the city walls.

The strongest generals in the Ning Province army were all on the city walls, their eyes constantly watching the surrounding mountain areas outside the city.

The people in the city were also panic-stricken, with expressions of nervousness on their faces.

The once prosperous and lively Ning Province City was now devoid of noisy sounds even during the day.

The atmosphere of the entire city seemed very oppressive.

Mu Ci Yin, Qing Yue, Linglong, Mo Qingli, and Sheng Liner had returned to the Beginning God's Residence.

Apart from Sheng Liner, Mu Ci Yin, Qing Yue, Linglong, and Mo Qingli would occasionally go to the city walls to observe the situation.

Inside the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord of Ning Province paced back and forth in the council hall with his hands behind his back.

From yesterday until now, he had hardly left the hall.

Some of the city's high-level officials were also here, each with a solemn expression and a hint of melancholy on their faces.

"City Lord, do you think we should ask the Divine Empress to invite the Beginning God back?"

In the hall, a middle-aged man said.

He was one of the high-level officials of Ning Province, and also the commander-in-chief of Ning Province, holding the position of General, commanding one billion soldiers of the Ning Province army.

"No need, the Beginning God must have his own important matters, otherwise he would not have chosen to leave our world easily at this time.

With the rune formations that the Beginning God asked us to set up, we can still hold on for some time.

Therefore, things have not yet reached the point of inviting the Beginning God back. Unless necessary, try not to disturb the Beginning God."

The City Lord of Ning Province rejected the General's suggestion.

Since yesterday, figures suspected to be Chaos King-level beings had appeared in the mountains outside the city.

At first, it could not be determined that they were Chaos King-level powerhouses, only that their aura was too strong, like an abyss, unfathomable.

Later, several Divine Empresses returned, and after Sheng Liner confirmed, the figure appearing in the mountains outside the city was a protector-level powerhouse from the Divine Palace in the Land of Disorder.

Chaos King-level being!

The four words "Chaos King-level" could make people suffocate.

These four words represented the ceiling of the growth intensity of beings in this world!

Most importantly, that was an eighteenth-order Chaos King-level!

Whether it was realm or growth intensity, it was much higher than the powerhouses of Ning Province.

If it weren't for the rune formations that Lord God had asked to be set up.

Once such a terrifying powerhouse started to attack the city, the entire Ning Province would instantly fall.

One billion soldiers were like ants in front of him, no matter how many there were, it would be useless.

Those heavy anti-siege rune warfare weapons could not withstand his fierce power, and it was impossible to even break his defense!

Fortunately, so far, the Chaos King-level powerhouse had not attacked the city, but had been wandering back and forth in the mountains around the city, seemingly observing the city.

The Chaos King-level being had not approached Ning Province City, always keeping a distance of a hundred miles, sometimes appearing on the top of a certain mountain, sometimes appearing in the sky above the mountains, overlooking the city.

Mu Ci Yin, Qing Yue, Linglong, and Mo Qingli brought Sheng Liner to the council hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

In the hall, pairs of eyes focused on them.

A group of people hurriedly got up and rushed to the door to greet them.

"The Divine Empresses have arrived, we have failed to welcome you properly, please forgive us!"

The City Lord of Ning Province and the high-level officials gave Mu Ci Yin and the others enough respect.

"City Lord, you don't have to be like this.

We are here to tell the City Lord that although there is a Chaos King-level powerhouse from the Divine Palace eyeing us covetously outside the city, he will not attack Ning Province City for the time being.

If he were to attack, he would not still be wandering in the mountains outside the city."

Mu Ci Yin told the City Lord of Ning Province that, judging from the behavior of the Chaos King-level powerhouse, they were still somewhat wary of the order of the Heavenly Dao.

These past two days, they had been circling the city, partly because they were not sure if the target was in this city.

Secondly, they might also be testing whether the order of the Heavenly Dao would give a warning.

"Even if the protector of the Divine Palace really intends to attack Ning Province City, he will wait until reinforcements arrive.

The fact that the Green Flame Divine Lion died in the hands of my brother and I is enough to make the eighteenth-order Chaos King-level protector outside the city wary.

If my brother and I are in the city, wouldn't he risk being counter-killed if he rushed in alone?

Therefore, before he leaves Ning Province to ask for help, City Lord, you don't have to worry.

My brother once asked you to set up rune formations that can withstand the attack for a certain period of time.

We have now confirmed that my brother is in a place called Sunset Imperial City in the outside world.

Once a crisis breaks out in Ning Province, we can quickly contact my brother and tell him what happened in Ning Province, and he will definitely rush back as soon as possible."

"He will still ask for help?"

Hearing Sheng Liner say this, the City Lord of Ning Province's legs trembled, and he almost didn't stand firm.

One Chaos King-level was already extremely terrifying.

If he asked for help again, it was simply unimaginable.

The Beginning God was very strong, but if there was more than one Chaos King-level powerhouse attacking the city.

Even the Beginning God would probably have to hold back when dealing with them…

Moreover, the Beginning God had to take care of the people and soldiers in the city during the battle, which might tie his hands.

"City Lord, you must believe in the Beginning God, he never does things without being sure.

Since he said that he would not let anything happen to Ning Province, he will definitely be able to do it.

I trouble the City Lord to inform the generals of the three armies to stabilize the morale.

Now, due to the pressure of the Chaos King-level, the minds of the soldiers are tense, and the state of mind of many soldiers has been greatly affected.

Over time, it may have a negative impact on their Dao hearts and will, which is not conducive to future cultivation."

Mu Ci Yin and the others cared a lot about this matter.

In the past two days, they had patrolled the city walls several times and clearly felt the psychological changes of the soldiers.

The soldiers of Ning Province were the ones that her husband would take to the outside world to fight against the dark army in the future.

They didn't want to see their state of mind being affected by this, slowing down their cultivation speed.

"This old man understands, I will follow the Divine Empress's wishes and personally take a trip."

…

Several more days passed.

Inside the Sunset Imperial Palace, Mu Lian Yue had already broken through her realm.

Now, she was also in the Primordial God Realm.

Jun Wu Xie had also come out of the Eight Nine Mysterious Palace.

During these days, he had spent more than a year with Gong Jiuqing and Hua Lian Yue in the time formation of the Eight Nine Mysterious Palace.

Hua Lian Yue's wish had been fulfilled, and she was willing to merge with her reincarnated body at any time.

After Jun Wu Xie came out, he immediately told Mu Lian Yue about this.

Mu Lian Yue naturally no longer rejected this and nodded lightly to Jun Wu Xie.

Jun Wu Xie led Hua Lian Yue out of the Eight Nine Mysterious Palace.

A flash of light passed, and Hua Lian Yue's primordial spirit body appeared in the bedroom, her past and present lives meeting eye to eye.

Both of them looked on with curiosity.

Hua Lian Yue's incomplete primordial spirit body showed even more emotion.

After countless ages of demise, she could finally see the light of day and experience the world.

Her reincarnated self had the exact same appearance as her.

Only her temperament was different.

She was somewhat surprised that her reincarnated self actually possessed two kinds of bloodlines within her body.

One was an inherited bloodline, but it was in a dormant state and had not awakened.

The other was a very mysterious bloodline.

This bloodline endowed her with a very special temperament, making her eyes have the phenomenon of twilight sunset within their pupils, giving people an extremely beautiful and stunning, yet also tragic feeling.

"Relax, don't resist.

For me, you are my future life's memories; for you, I am your past life's memories.

Only after we merge can we truly become complete and flawless."

As Hua Lian Yue spoke, she transformed into a brilliant rain of primordial spirit light, disappearing into Mu Lian Yue's body.

Mu Lian Yue's expression shook, and then she closed her eyes and sat down cross-legged.

In her sea of consciousness, a large amount of memory surged in.

In this instant, she walked into the ancient Immortal Ancient Era that had passed away countless ages ago, and was experiencing a period of life.

From her childhood with memories, all the way to adulthood, to fighting against the darkness in the borderlands, there was also her first encounter with the Divine Lord, and drinking and talking happily.

In just a few hours, in that wonderful state of mind, she seemed to have walked through hundreds of years.

How much hardship, how much joy and sorrow.

That cruel era, that dark and desperate era…

Unconsciously, her face was already covered with tears.

Jun Wu Xie felt distressed when he saw this, squatted down, and gently wiped the tears from her face.

"Husband, there are Emperor fluctuations within the passage between the Heavenly Astral Great World and the God Ancient World.

This concubine feels the power of the Emperor.

That wisp of Emperor's power blocked part of the impact of the God Ancient Order."

Wan's figure quietly appeared in the bedroom and said softly beside him.

"They can't hold back anymore, the Emperor Realm experts of the Heavenly Astral Great World have finally participated."

"Yes, this time, the Emperor Realm expert took action, greatly reducing the order impact suffered by the people of the Azure Water Sect who were crossing the boundary, and one of them forcibly retained the Eternal Life Realm."

"The Eternal Life Realm, that is a bit troublesome.

However, since it is a realm retained by forcibly locking it in, it can only be at the first level of the Eternal Life Realm."

"How many are there in this batch?"

"There are more than a dozen people in total, but only one person has forcibly locked in the Eternal Life Realm."

Jun Wu Xie nodded and said nothing more.

One person was still okay, but if there were several people, it would really be impossible to deal with, unless he let his mother or Yao'er come.

But they were dealing with dark creatures in the Alliance Fortress, and besides, it was not appropriate for them to expose their true strength.
