Chapter 442: Chapter 300: Siege the City
Ancient Beast Mountain Range.
Yan Yun had already led the army to defend this place.
“What’s the current situation of the Star Dynasty?”
He looked at a scout in front of him and asked.
The latter answered respectfully.
“Reporting, General, the Star Dynasty is only eight hundred li away, they will arrive tomorrow!”
If it were a mortal army, it surely wouldn’t be this fast.
But for an imperial dynasty, even an ordinary soldier has considerable cultivation, and the march considers many aspects.
Not to mention a day.
Even within half a day.
The army of the Star Dynasty would have already reached our gates.
“Continue your reconnaissance, report any news immediately!”
Yan Yun waved his hand, then let him leave.
He ordered others to come and report the situations of the other eight cities.
The Evil Suppressing Nine Cities form a mutual defense formation. Although the First City is the main defense point, the importance of the other eight cities cannot be overlooked.
After learning that the eight cities were all ready for defense, Yan Yun’s expression still showed no relief.
The Star Dynasty comes with great momentum, tens of millions of troops, and even a Quasi-Imperial Weapon in hand, this battle without a doubt will be extremely fierce.
Even if the Divine Martial Dynasty wins, it will likely be a pyrrhic victory.
Yan Yun had no intention of retreating.
As a Great General, he must lead by example.
Now that Gu Yang has ordered him to defend the Evil Suppressing Nine Cities, Yan Yun will not take a step back.
There is no third option!
A guard hurriedly came in from outside.
“Reporting, General, someone claiming to be from the Red Dust Immortal Sect seeks an audience outside!”
“Red Dust Immortal Sect?”
Yan Yun looked puzzled.
Such a force in the Central Domain was somewhat unfamiliar to him.
Yan Yun still decided to meet them.
Gu Qingfeng had just finished a day of cultivation.
The Nirvana Dao Scripture had already broken through the threshold of the Divine Transformation Chapter, advancing to the Dao Palace Chapter.
For his current cultivation at Saint Nine Layers, the breakthrough in the Nirvana Dao Scripture didn’t mean much increase.
After all, the advance from Divine Transformation Realm to Dao Palace Realm is nothing in the eyes of a Saint.
To merely step into the First Layer of the Dao Palace Chapter, even to the Ninth Layer, wouldn’t significantly change for Gu Qingfeng.
This doesn’t mean it didn’t change at all.
This is because multiple cultivation techniques can stack only when a cultivator hasn’t truly reached the limit of a certain realm, leaving room for improvement. Thus, multiple techniques can be stacked, making one’s foundation stronger.
If a cultivator has truly reached the extreme in a certain realm, even more techniques would be useless.
This was evident when Gu Qingfeng was at the Body Refinement stages.
Gu Qingfeng felt he had reached the limit at the Divine Transformation Realm.
However, in the Dao Palace Realm, there was still some room for improvement, though not much.
No matter how much room for improvement, Gu Qingfeng aimed to fully reach the peak at every stage.
Could he surpass those at the same level.
A Semi-Saint suppressing a Great Saint.
Comes from such a solid foundation.
This is partly due to the Ancient Immortal Body.
In Gu Qingfeng’s view.
If there were a cultivator who could truly reach the limit in every realm.
Their combat power would not be inferior to those with a Divine Body.
If they possess a Divine Body and still reach the limit, combining both would result in terrifying combat power.
“If I could reach the limit in the Saint Realm, with my cultivation at Saint Nine Layers, without using other means, I might contend with a Saint King.”
“Even stepping back, matching a Great Saint’s Ninth Layer wouldn’t be an issue.”
Given his current situation, Gu Qingfeng estimated that without using other trump cards, his power would be equivalent to a Great Saint’s Sixth Layer.
If he activates the Three Great Heavenly Veins, he could contend with a Saint King.
If he then uses the Imperial Weapon, whether he could challenge a Quasi-Emperor is uncertain, but within the Saint King Realm, he shouldn’t need to fear.
However, this depends on the Saint King not having an Imperial Weapon.
If they do have an Imperial Weapon, it would be a different matter.
After all, the higher the cultivation, the more powerful the Imperial Weapon’s force becomes.
With Gu Qingfeng’s current skill, his cultivation at Saint Nine Heavens couldn’t fully unleash the power of the Imperial Weapon.
The Evil Slayer Blade he now holds.
The immense power it contains makes Gu Qingfeng slightly afraid.
“My cultivation is still insufficient. If I were a Great Emperor now, I wouldn’t be so cautious in my actions.”
“Regardless of the Star Dynasty or the Evil Spirit, I’d suppress them all!”
Gu Qingfeng stepped out of the Grinding Blade Hall, looking in the direction of the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, his eyes gleaming with Dao Rhythms, seemingly able to pierce through thousands of miles, surging with a vast murderous aura.
The army has yet to arrive.
The killing intent is already present!
“It seems the Star Dynasty’s army is about to arrive!”
Gu Qingfeng murmured, then took a step forward, space trembled, and his figure disappeared from the Gu Family Manor.
Since entering the Saint Realm, Gu Qingfeng, being in harmony with the world, had mastered the power of space even more proficiently.
Ordinary escape techniques, no matter how fast, couldn’t compare with direct spatial movement.
Gu Qingfeng took merely a few steps to move from the Capital to the First City.
In the City Lord Mansion.
Yan Yun and numerous strong cultivators were gathered.
