In the Monarch of Eternity world, golden qi filled the sky and dense purple qi suffused the area. The emperor dragon of qi and the kung fu purple dragon, which had evolved into nine claws, both revealed their real bodies. Their million feet long bodies coiled above the Emperor City of Ten Thousand Dragons and the might of the supreme emperor enveloped the surrounding space, intimidating everyone within a radius of a trillion li.
The Nine Winding River Immortal Formation was in a state of circulation, and a black yellow river with no source started gushing out from the depths of the sky. The river water was formed from the condensed Dao patterns of heaven and earth, and countless totemic Dao patterns were flashing, the river of Dao patterns surrounded the Emperor City of Ten Thousand Dragons, releasing an endless amount of black yellow mist that completely enveloped the Emperor City of Ten Thousand Dragons within.
One by one, the Empyrean meridians released a dense azure energy, causing the dark yellow fog to grow denser. The ten great Xiantian spiritual roots, the Blue Primordial Lotus, the Fusang Ancient Tree, the laurel Tree, the Ginseng Fruit Tree, the Immortality Peach Tree, the Stellar Ancient Tree, the Immortal Apriceless Apricot, the Ancient Five Elements Tree, and the Bodhisattva Enlightenment Tree, were faintly discernable in the dark yellow fog.
Fighting, Xing Tian, Hou Yi, and Kuafu, these four ancient dao emperors had manifested their royal way and personally took charge of the four directions. The vast, noble, ancient, and tyrannical aura of the emperors were like four eternal suns, illuminating the heavens and shaking the entire Monarch of Eternity Realm.
The most elite Sky Desolate Imperial Guards of the imperial palace rode their spaceships and patrolled the area. There were many Epochrion riding on giant dragons and forming king squadrons in every corner, showing off their Heavenly Passage, forming layers of spatial barriers, constructing defensive lines around the imperial city, and also having Supreme Emperor sitting in the sky, releasing their supreme divine sense to sweep across the void.
Da Qin, Da Han, Da Tang, Da Song, Da Ming, the five elements, Thousand Islands, and Tian Huang, these eight large armies, these ten million strong armies, were spread out in all directions and were in a state of vigilance. Every city had formation patterns shining on them, and as the endless dawn light shone within the Monarch Realm, one after another War Killing Equipment was placed on top of the fortress, releasing the aura of war throughout the entire Monarch of Eternity.
The War Immortal Palace was the most important place in the entire Royal Tomb. It was surrounded by Emperor Inscriptions that sealed off the void, isolating outsiders from prying eyes. The vast imperial palace's destiny enveloped this entire palace hall and the supreme Emperor's might permeated it.
Sun Wu, Han Xin, and Li Jing, the three grand emperors who sat at the head of the Main Palace and were enveloped in layers of Great Emperor's radiance and surrounded by the laws of the way of the emperor, all had solemn expressions on their faces and exuded a strong killing intent.
Below them were Zhao Yun, Xiang Yu, Lu Bu and the other Heavenly Generals of the Imperial Court, as well as the Great Qin Army's Bai Qi, Wang Jian and his son,, Wei Qing, Wei Qing, Guo Ziyi, Su Dingfang's Great Song Army, Yuan Chonghuan, Qi Jiguang's Five Elements Army, Hua Mulan, Li Xiuning's Thousand Islands Army, Xie Yushu, and other generals of the Imperial Court.
In the hall, the fourth leader Zhou Yafu stood up, clasping his fists as he asked in confusion, "Marshal, I do not understand why we are ordering the withdrawal of troops. It's just a Golden Lion Demon Emperor, we don't even need to fight the Ancient Emperor, we can handle him with our army."
He was the commander of the fourth Armored Dragon Legion in the Goliath Army. However, because the time he had been summoned was not long ago, his cultivation was still only at the invincible ancient king Realm, not the Supreme Emperor Realm.
Furthermore, because the news of the invasion of the foreign races was too important, once it was leaked out, it would most likely cause an unnecessary commotion amongst the soldiers. It was because the Military Intelligence Service that Jia Xu had spread the news and only passed it on to the Supreme Emperor, and this caused Zhou Ya Fu and the rest who were in the invincible ancient king to not know why the Military Intelligence Service would suddenly withdraw.
Han Xin, one of the marshals of the imperial court, pointed his finger towards the eastern region of the Monarch of Eternity and said, "The cave lion of the Flame Lion Emperor's demonic realm has been dispatched. Thirty million elite soldiers are pressing on the eastern border of the imperial court."
"So what? It's just a mere Cave Lion clan. As long as they dare to come, my Darkhan army has absolute confidence to swallow them up." Huo Qubing sat on his throne gloomily. He was very depressed at his failure to annex all of the Great Han Empire's territories in one go.
Chang Chun of the Great Ming Army said helplessly, "Sick, you're too optimistic. There's not only the Cave Lion, the Raging Flame Clan has made a move, and at the same time the Flame Lion Emperor Demon Realm has launched an army, the Swallowing Cloud Emperor Demon Realm has also gathered a great army of 50 million demon birds, eyeing our imperial court covetously. Otherwise, do you think our army will let the pirates go?"
Yuan Chonghuan was also regretful, "My Ming army has completely annihilated the pirates that have entered the territory of the imperial court, slaying 13 million of them. Feng Zhenxiu and Wu Tianxin, the two Great Emperors of the imperial court, have also died on the battlefield. The current imperial court of the pirates is not even able to withstand a single blow, what a pity."
During the battle between the Great Han Dynasty and the Darkhan army, the Ming army had also engaged in a fierce battle with the imperial court. After a bloody battle, the imperial court had suffered heavy casualties and was almost completely destroyed, while the generals of the imperial court and the Prime Minister had all died, leaving Emperor Wu Tian to escape back to the imperial court.
Yuan Chonghuan, Xu Da, Chang Sichun and the other generals of the Ming army had been discussing and had wanted to lead their troops to attack the imperial palace in one go. However, they received shocking news from the Military Intelligence Service that the fifty million demon birds army of the Swallowing Cloud Emperor Demon Realm had already moved out to threaten the northern border of the imperial palace.
This news forced Yuan Chonghuan and the rest to abandon their plans to enter the imperial palace of the pirates. They led the Great Ming Army to set up defenses at the northern border, using the War Emperor City as a foundation, and stood in confrontation with the fifty million strong army of the Swallowing Cloud Demon Emperor Realm.
"The three Emperors of the Spirit Race also had strange movements. Otherwise, the Great Yue State would have been invaded and taken over by our Tang Army." The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Just as the Great Yue emperor was about to be exterminated by the Great Tang Empire, just how could he not be angry that he would be destroyed by the actions of the three foreign invaders?
Although the Three Great Emperor Realms of the Spirit Race did not send their armies directly to the Monarch of Eternity Realm, the Three Great Daoist Societies had secretly opened up three spatial passages that led directly to the heart of the Great Yue State. Each spatial passageway was capable of teleporting an army of millions of soldiers.
As long as the Great Tang Army entered the Emperor's Hall, the Three Great Emperor's Spiritual World would definitely send troops to intervene. The war with the Three Great Emperor's Spiritual Realm would affect the safety of the Great Tang Dynasty, so Xue Rengui, Su Dingfang and Guo Ziyi did not dare to be careless.
"The three Demon Emperors frequently deployed their armies as well. Otherwise, our Great Qin Army would not have retreated back to guard the border and attacked the imperial city of the Grand Emperor's Mansion so quickly. One must know that Great General Bai Qi had already killed over ten million soldiers of the Grand Indian Army."
At the western border of Monarch of Eternity, the Great Qin Army had destroyed the Great Sealing Empire and killed nearly twenty million of their soldiers. Among them, the Great General Bai Qi led his troops and killed over ten million people.
However, Corpse Devil, Evil Spirit, and Evil Soul, the three great emperors of the Demon World, suddenly sent their armies. Hundreds of millions of Demon Army poured into the Great Indian Imperial Courtyard to confront the Great Qin Army.
"The Sea Clan is no longer peaceful. The Nine-Striped Emperor Crocodile has appeared on the borders of the sea." The commander of the Thousand Islands Army, who was in charge of temporarily replacing the Great Ming Army and patrolling the ocean borders of the imperial court, stood up and reported to Bai Wuxia with a serious expression.
At the same time, it was also very suitable for temporarily swapping out with the other large armies. This time, the Great Ming Army would go on a campaign against the pirates and the imperial court, and the Thousand-island Army would take over the duty of patrolling the seas.
In the end, Bai Wuxia and the others discovered the figure of the Emperor Crocodile race in a secret corner of the ocean. Although the Thousand Islands Army managed to expel the Emperor Crocodiles in time, this undoubtedly indicated a serious problem, and that was the Sea Clan's unrest.
Zhang Liang, the main advisor of the imperial court, stood up from his throne. With a solemn expression, he said in a deep voice, "The nine Monarch Realm of the Five Kingdoms of the East are all currently showing signs of sending troops to our Monarch of Eternity s. This is not a good phenomenon, we have to take precautions."
Looking at the surrounding army leaders, he continued, "The reason why we called you back this time around is to discuss how we should deal with the crisis before us."
Clenching his hands into fists, he said loudly, "Everyone, the nine Monarch Realm have arrived. Our Eternity is at a critical moment now, so I hope that you all can protect the Imperial Court and the homeland that we have built together."
Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, Xue Rengui and the other generals stood up at the same time and clenched their fists as they swore, "We will fight to the death to protect our sovereignty and to protect our people from foreign invaders. We will fight to the death to protect our people from their persecution."
Sun Wu, the marshal of the imperial court, nodded his head in satisfaction, and said resolutely, "Very good, I still have to say, we must not let the foreign forces fight our way to the Monarch Realm, otherwise we will all be sinners."
Han Xin and Li Jing also expressed their stance at the same time, "The second option is to guard the enemy outside the country. It is the Monarch's national policy and the belief that we must not let the foreign races invade the Monarch of Eternity."
Once the other races assaulted the Monarch of Eternity, then no matter how victory or defeat was, the citizens of the Heavenly Desolate Empire would still be the ones suffering. This was a matter that Qin Hengtian could not tolerate, as there was one of the highest national policies of the Heavenly Desolate Empire that was specifically aimed at war, and that was to prevent the enemy from fighting outside the borders of the country. The war must not erupt within the Monarch Realm, and the injuries brought about by the war must be avoided as far as possible.
