Chapter 530: Chapter 530: Da Xia Shocks the World

Zhong Shan had defeated Han Ji Guang.

When the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array dissipated, and Han Ji Guang lay on the ground like a dead man, the spies from various factions were stunned. Was Zhong Shan truly that powerful? Han Ji Guang, a seasoned Emperor Extreme realm expert, had been defeated?

Defeated in a one-on-one duel? No, Zhong Shan had the ghost of Wei Yinglan helping him. But still, the defeat was too absolute.

Han Ji Guang's body was covered in wounds, his clothes torn to shreds. What a fierce battle it must have been. What people didn't realize was that the injuries on Han Ji Guang's body were deliberately inflicted by Zhong Shan.

As people marveled at Zhong Shan's strength, a faint green energy beside him drew even more attention.

What was that?

Vaguely, a human figure could be seen within the green energy.

Han Ji Guang? Was that Han Ji Guang?

Everyone watched in astonishment. Was that Han Ji Guang's ghost? Had Zhong Shan killed Han Ji Guang and even captured his ghost?

In the distance, the attacking army had already entered the city. The commanders of the various legions had all gone in, but Zhong Shan's personal guards, Gu Qianyou, and the commander of the Jin Yi Wei remained, protecting Zhong Shan.

Seeing Zhong Shan emerge victorious, everyone cheered.

After all, Han Ji Guang was an Emperor Extreme realm expert, one of the top fighters in the Divine Continent. Despite their confidence in their emperor, there had been worries. But now, those worries were gone. Their emperor had won.

Zhong Shan dissipated the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array and looked around coldly.

The spies from various factions shuddered under Zhong Shan's gaze, retreating further.

The cries of despair echoed throughout Tian Guang City. But what could they do? War was inherently cruel. Over a year ago, Zhong Shan had declared his intention to massacre the city. They had chosen to stand by Han Ji Guang, and this was the consequence. They couldn't blame Zhong Shan.

As the sovereign of Da Xia, Zhong Shan's word was law. Once spoken, it could not be undone.

Han Ji Guang was dead!

The spies from various factions observed the tragic state of Tian Guang City. The Da Guang Dynasty had collapsed.

The vanished fate from Tian Guang City's skyline signaled the end of the Da Guang Dynasty, relegating it to history.

Soon, Tian Guang City was thoroughly massacred, with some left behind to guard it.

As for the heavenly dynasties, it was unknown what the attitudes of the sovereigns were.

The chaotic lands, along with the former territory of the Da Guang Dynasty, were renamed by Zhong Shan as Qingzhou! This vast land conquered over the years, Qingzhou.

The shadow body of Zhong Shan took Gu Qianyou back to Tianlang Island, while Qingzhou was left under the guardianship of Yi Yan, Shui Jing, and Shui Wuhen. They would develop their respective Great Zheng military forces and restore Qingzhou's vitality. The three major legion commanders divided Qingzhou into three parts, each overseeing one area.

The Great Zheng Dynasty decided to rest and recover, which left some neighboring dynasties, who had been on edge, slightly surprised. Zhong Shan left?

Upon hearing this news, almost everyone was puzzled. Why did Zhong Shan leave? Zhong Shan returned to Tianlang Island because something monumental was being prepared there. The mud Buddha was setting up an array to attempt to communicate with the yin and yang realms.

North of Xuanjing, a vast area had been cleared, and countless palace complexes had been built. At the very center was the largest palace. The Yin-Yang Palace! The Yin-Yang Palace belonged to the Imperial Astronomical Observatory. The palace was constructed with infinite materials, the expenditure on its construction was incredibly extravagant. But, to Zhong Shan, everything was worth it.

Once the exterior of the palace was completed, the interior construction began. Craftsmen could be hired for the exterior, but only the people from the Imperial Astronomical Observatory could work on the interior. The mud Buddha was personally responsible for overseeing the construction of the Yin-Yang Palace!

Outside the Yin-Yang Palace plaza, Zhong Shan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the massive palace before him. Standing beside him were Bao'er, Ling'er, and Qianyou. The mud Buddha introduced the situation to Zhong Shan.

"This array is called the 'Yin-Yang Road.' It will be completely built soon. Each activation will require nine hundred million top-grade spirit stones," the mud Buddha explained.

Yin-Yang Road? Each activation requiring nine hundred million top-grade spirit stones? Tian Ling'er opened her mouth wide in shock. Nine hundred million? How many spirit stones was that? Think of it, one mountain? Two mountains?... This was not just opening the yin and yang realms; it was burning money, treating spirit stones as if they were nothing. The number was terrifying!

"Nine hundred million? Hmm, how many people can it accommodate each time?" Zhong Shan asked the crucial question.

"Nine people, excluding me as the main array operator, Your Majesty can select eight more people to go to the underworld," the mud Buddha replied earnestly.

Nine hundred million top-grade spirit stones could only send nine people to the underworld? This was too extravagant! "Hmm, I will carefully select them. Continue the construction and notify me when it's complete," Zhong Shan nodded.

"Yes!" the mud Buddha responded.

Then, Zhong Shan left with everyone.

"Zhong Shan, I want to go!" Not far away, Tian Ling'er exclaimed.

"You cannot go!" Zhong Shan shook his head.

"I want to see my parents!" Tian Ling'er's face was filled with sadness.

Hearing Tian Ling'er's words, Qianyou and Bao'er also looked at Zhong Shan expectantly. Going to the underworld? Finding their relatives? The two women were filled with hope. "No, this trip to the underworld is extremely dangerous. None of you can go. I will find Master and Mistress," Zhong Shan shook his head firmly.

Hearing Zhong Shan's refusal, Tian Ling'er pouted. "Why can you go, but I can't!" Tian Ling'er protested.
