Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Jingya's speed, needless to say, was that of a Saint Emperor Great Celestial, with a Mythic Tenth Level talent growth rate.

Even though the distance from Pingwu City to the Wu'an Imperial City was vast, they quickly arrived.

However, she and Jun Wuxie did not enter the city, stopping in the mountains outside the city.

Jun Wuxie stood on the summit, overlooking the Wu'an Imperial City.

This city was magnificent and majestic, permeated with an ancient charm. The city walls bore many traces of war, marking its past vicissitudes.

The people inside the city did not panic because the dynasty was under attack and continuously losing cities.

On the streets, people came and went, bustling as if nothing had happened.

His divine sense covered the city, seeing various scenes.

In many buildings, there were also many anxious people, while in some high-end places, there was extreme luxury, pools of wine and forests of meat, indulging in pleasure.

His divine sense clearly spied the Tian Kehan of Wu'an pacing anxiously in the imperial palace, surrounded by a large number of officials.

"Tell me, what should we do? Now the Daqian army's fierce flames are blazing, and my dynasty has lost nearly a hundred cities!" Wu'an Tian Kehan was stout and burly, almost square-shaped, with a face full of橫肉, a thick beard, and fierce glints in his eyes.

The scene was silent, and the officials all lowered their heads, not uttering a word.

In the current situation, who could have a solution?

They simply couldn't withstand the Daqian army's fierce offensive. Wherever they went, they were invincible, and no city could hold out for even an hour.

Moreover, after years of war consumption, the dynasty's army size had sharply decreased, and it had long been severely weakened.

The total army size, which was once nearly a hundred million, was now less than thirty million. With the conquest of cities these days, the army size was constantly decreasing.

It could be said that the dynasty now had no troops to mobilize at all, unless the two million garrison troops of the imperial city were transferred to the front line.

But what use would these mere two million be?

Facing those fierce men in the Daqian army, even twenty million would probably be useless.

"A bunch of useless people! When you scheme against each other, you are all quick-witted and sharp-minded. Now that you are needed to offer advice, you are all stubbornly silent!"

Tian Kehan was so angry that his chest heaved violently. He erupted in anger on the spot, venting his emotions.

The Wu'an officials remained silent.

Tian Kehan's facial muscles twitched as he watched. He took a deep breath, restrained his emotions, and said in a deep voice, "Has there been any news from the Hanzhou Three Sects?"

"Great Tian Kehan, although we have joined forces to write a talisman letter and send it urgently to Hanzhou, according to the time calculation, even if those beings in Hanzhou receive our talisman letter, it will probably take some time for their reply to arrive."

"My great and supreme Tian Kehan, please do not worry. Although we have now lost nearly a hundred cities, my Wu'an Dynasty has vast territory, with thousands of cities. With the Daqian Five Armies' speed of conquering cities, even if each army averages one city per day, it will take several months to approach the imperial city."

"Yes, we don't need to worry at all. Daqian is now extremely arrogant, and that Jun Wuxie has even killed important figures of top sects in Hanzhou, forming a deadly feud. How could they let Daqian go?"

"From the current point of view, although we have lost many cities, it is only temporary. Once the experts in Hanzhou take action, Jun Wuxie is killed, and Daqian is destroyed, we can not only take back the lost land, but even possibly annex the entire territory of Daqian!"

Tian Kehan listened, remained silent for a moment, and nodded, saying, "That's true, but seeing the Daqian army conquer my Wu'an cities like this, where is my prestige! It's all that damned Jun Wuxie. He was just a commoner, but he has actually reached such a height. If it weren't for him, I would have taken Daqian long ago!"

"Wise and martial Tian Kehan, Jun Wuxie's life will not last long. Just wait for the Hanzhou experts to come and suppress him. When the time comes, the great Tian Kehan can ask the adults of Hanzhou to hand over that Jun Wuxie to you for disposal, so that he can neither live nor die!"

"I will use all means to torture him!"

Tian Kehan smiled coldly. Thinking of that Jun Wuxie, he hated him to the bone!

......

In the mountains outside the Wu'an Imperial City, Jingya's eyes were slightly cold, and she said, "Things that don't know how to live or die!"

"Aunt Jing, there's no need to care. A Khan of a dynasty, a cultivator in the Half-Step Overlord Saint realm, is just a small fry."

Jun Wuxie smiled faintly, not caring about Wu'an Tian Kehan's attitude.

"Now that we're already here, aren't you planning to take action? Directly taking down the Wu'an leaders would save trouble."

"There's no need. I'm here only to guard against the arrival of experts from the Hanzhou Three Sects, bringing danger to the Five Armies." Jun Wuxie said, sitting down cross-legged under an ancient pine tree on the summit, "The glory of conquering the Wu'an Imperial City should be left to the soldiers of the Five Armies. As soldiers, fighting on the battlefield and establishing military merits are glory and pride. There should always be some moments of heroic years, so that when you recall them in the future, they will be flavorful, don't you think?"

Jingya listened, couldn't help but be stunned, and then pursed her lips and smiled, sitting next to him, saying, "You're right, soldiers should have such glory, leaving behind a heroic time to look back on. You still understand what they want in their hearts."

"By the way, Aunt Jing estimates that the experts from those top sects in Hanzhou won't come. Losing a Mythic-level Half-Step Saint Emperor is an unbearable burden for them. They most likely won't risk it again, after all, their Mythic-level beings are limited, and they have accumulated over long years."

"However, the danger has not been lifted. The fact that their own experts are not coming does not mean that they will not think of other ways to deal with you. As Aunt Jing guesses, they are very likely to use the fact that you are wanted by the demon race to inform the upper-level forces they are attached to about your news."

Jingya's expression became serious, "Among the forces that the Hanzhou Six Sects are attached to, one sect has had an intersection with you."

"Hmm?"

Jun Wuxie frowned slightly. If a force of that level had an intersection with him, it could only have been in the Lower Realm a few years ago.

At that time, a large number of Upper Realm forces descended, coming from various forces, and most of them clashed with him.

Jingya said, "It's the Nebula Sect."

"So it's this force..."

Jun Wuxie certainly knew that it was the force supporting the headquarters of the Starry Sky Ancient Road in the Lower Realm.

"In addition to the Nebula Sect, they are also attached to another force—the Earth Origin Sect. The Nebula Sect and the Earth Origin Sect are located in Qinzhou. Qinzhou is one of the famous great states in the Eastern Territory, belonging to the second-level states, while Jiezhou, where my demon race is located, is a first-level state in the Eastern Territory, one of the three major first-level states in the Eastern Territory."

"The other two first-level states are Wuzhou and Jizhou respectively. Jiezhou, Wuzhou, and Jizhou, the three major first-level states are all connected to the Central Hengduan Mountains and border the Central Territory. They are the most resource-rich and environmentally superior places in the entire Eastern Territory."

Jun Wuxie heard this and said, "Jiezhou should be controlled by the demon race, so who are the overlords of Wuzhou and Jizhou?"

"The overlord of Wuzhou is the Overlord-level force, the Martial Ancestor Hall. The Martial Ancestor Hall cultivates both body and qi, and its techniques are special. Its physical body far surpasses ordinary cultivators, and it is good at strong attacks and sustained combat; the overlord of Jizhou is the Holy Medicine Gate, which has the most skilled physicians and pharmacists in the world, and stands in the world by helping the world and saving people, rarely participating in the struggles of the cultivation world."

Jun Wuxie listened, analyzed it slightly, and said, "In that case, the Nebula Sect is in a second-level state and is not the overlord force. It seems that it is a quasi-overlord force, so is the Earth Origin Sect?"

"Yes."

Jingya indicated that these two forces are indeed quasi-overlords. There are a large number of Saint Ancestor realm experts in the sect, and the current sect master and leader are existences who have just entered the Saint Ancestor realm.

"The Nebula Sect cultivates the Starry Sky Saint Art, which can absorb the Starry Sky Saint Radiance for its own use and condense the power of the stars into armor. Its defense is relatively outstanding, and its attack power is also not weak. The Earth Origin Sect, this force cultivates the Earth Origin Art, and its disciples are basically people with earth talents. They can obtain a constant stream of power by relying on the earth, and even live by borrowing the earth. Extremely serious injuries can also be restored to their peak in a short time by borrowing the power of the earth."

"Interesting, the abilities possessed by their techniques are quite impressive."

Jun Wuxie gave an objective evaluation. It was indeed surprising that a quasi-overlord level force could have such techniques.

"That's because their techniques were originally no weaker than the techniques of the Overlord forces, but they are severely incomplete and cannot be cultivated to the Eternal Saint realm, otherwise they would have been coveted long ago."

"Techniques no weaker than the Overlord forces?"

Jun Wuxie was a little surprised. With different levels of forces, how could there be no gap in the techniques?

Jingya said that the creators of the quasi-overlord level forces were all Supreme Saint realm experts, and some of them were extremely talented, but they fell midway for some special reasons.

These experts had obtained great opportunities, and these techniques were what they obtained in those opportunities, so naturally they would not be weak. The only pity was that they were not complete and only had a primary chapter.

The Overlord level forces were created by Mixed Origin Saint realm experts. Although the creators were at a higher realm, they were not necessarily stronger than some Supreme Saint realm experts in terms of opportunity.

In the end, it was a competition of luck. It was not surprising that some Supreme Saint realm experts had stronger luck than Chaos Saint realm experts.

"What level do the Soul Hunting Hall and the Sky Purity Sect belong to in this world?"

"They are called the Soul Hunting Holy Palace and the Sky Purity Holy Sect in this world. They are Eternal level forces and have produced many Eternal Saint realm experts."

Jun Wuxie nodded upon hearing this, as he had expected.

The Soul Hunting Hall and the Sky Purity Sect, whether in the Lower Realm or in the Divine Ancient World, were top-level forces in a world, and it should be the same in this Upper Realm.

"There are many states of the same level as Hanzhou between Hanzhou and Qinzhou, and the journey is long. It should take a long time for the Hanzhou Six Sects to go there, and it will take even longer for their people to come here. Unifying Qingzhou should be completed before that."

Speaking of this, Jingya looked at him gently and said, "Don't you still have a few Mythic-level Half-Step Saint Emperor corpses? You've been entangled in affairs during this time, so it's been delayed. Now, you can cultivate in peace, and Aunt Jing will guard you here."

"Yes, Aunt Jing is right. I should seize the time to cultivate. I’ve already delayed for so long and can’t continue to delay…"

Jun Wuxie slowly closed his eyes, his state of mind quickly becoming as calm as water as he entered a state of cultivation.

Jing Ya flicked her pale white finger slightly, and a wisp of law bloomed, forming a barrier that enveloped him.

The barrier gradually faded away, and along with it, Jun Wuxie disappeared.

It wasn't that he had vanished, but rather that he was concealed by the law barrier.

Jing Ya did this because she didn't want his astonishing phenomena during cultivation to attract onlookers.
