In the garden, the sudden explosion disturbed the king and Ye Ming who were playing chess in the pavilion. The two of them looked away from the chessboard at the same time and stared in the direction of the palace gates in confusion.
"What happened?" The king asked with a deep voice and a frown. He could sense that something was wrong from the flames in the sky.
Ye Ming stared in the direction of the palace gates for a while before his expression changed drastically. He said softly, "Oh no, something's happened." With that, Ye Ming turned into a blur and disappeared from the pavilion. He quickly made his way to the palace gates.
Outside the palace gates of the Kingdom of Gesun, the originally majestic walls had been completely destroyed. They had been reduced to rubble that covered the ground. Over twenty bloodied soldiers lay unconscious on the rubble. No one knew if they were dead or alive. The ground was paved with green marble, and there were traces of scorching black marks left on it. The intense heat was transmitted from the floor, making people feel as if they were in a steamer.
Above the shattered walls, ten people in various attires hovered twenty meters above the ground. They looked down emotionlessly with cold eyes. They were all peak Heaven Saint Masters.
The loud explosion had attracted the attention of many hidden experts patrolling the Kingdom of Gesun. All of them hurried over, but when they saw the ten experts hovering in the air, their faces changed drastically. They all paled.
"God dammit, there are so many Heaven Saint Masters, and they're the enemy. Hurry up and sound the war drums!" An Earth Saint Master ordered with trembling lips. Ten Heaven Saint Masters were equivalent to all the experts in the Kingdom of Gesun.
Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!
The heavy sound of the war drums rang out very quickly. The sound of the war drums was extremely penetrating, spreading throughout the entire palace. This was the highest warning in the Kingdom of Gesun. It had not been sounded for several decades. Once the war drums were sounded, it meant that the palace of the Kingdom of Gesun was facing a great threat. Everyone had to put down everything they were doing and fight the enemy.
All the guards and experts scattered around the Imperial Palace were alarmed by the sound of the war drums. After being stunned for a moment, they quickly reacted and rushed towards the Imperial Palace gate. Shadows could be seen everywhere.
A tremendous presence radiated from the imperial palace. Ye Ming, who was wrapped in a layer of water elemental energy, flew over from the garden and arrived at the entrance of the imperial palace in a single moment. He sternly stared at the ten Heaven Saint Masters who hovered in the air. His face was extremely ugly, and he did not care about the damaged entrance at all.
"Who are you guys?" Ye Ming asked in a deep voice.
Among the ten people, an old man wearing a luxurious robe sneered disdainfully, "We are from the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom. Immediately summon the King of your Kingdom of Gesun, Princess Glan, and Changyang Shōten. It's best if we don't look for them personally. Otherwise, the consequences are not something your Kingdom of Gesun can bear."
"Heavenly Eagle Kingdom, you actually dare to behave atrociously in my Kingdom of Gesun. Do you really think that our Kingdom of Gesun is still as weak and easy to bully as before?" Ye Ming said in a deep voice. His face was extremely stern. He was the only Heaven Saint Master in the Imperial Palace right now. The others were scattered everywhere and would not be able to rush over in a short amount of time. Currently, the Imperial Palace did not have the power to stop the ten Heaven Saint Masters from the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom.
"You're right. We really don't see anything about your Kingdom of Gesun that makes us fear you," said a middle-aged man in red robes. His face was filled with disdain.
Ye Ming snorted coldly. He did not fear facing the ten Heaven Saint Masters alone. He yelled, "Heavenly Eagle Kingdom, if you don't want to cause trouble, then leave quickly. Otherwise, the Qin Empire will not let you go. Do you know the relationship between the Kingdom of Gesun and the Qin Empire?"
"Hmph, you're just bluffing. Don't tell us that the Kingdom of Gesun and the Qin Empire have a close relationship. We're not as easy to fool as three-year-olds," sneered an old man. They had all heard from the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom's king that the Kingdom of Gesun and the Qin Empire did not have a close relationship. As a result, they completely ignored the threat of the Kingdom of Gesun bringing the Qin Empire over.
"Quickly summon the King and Princess Glan. Otherwise, we'll raze the Kingdom of Gesun's Imperial Palace to the ground." A dark-skinned old man sternly said. His gaze was extremely sharp, as if two bolts of lightning were shooting out from his eyes.
At this moment, several thousand elite soldiers and black-armored soldiers had gathered at the entrance of the imperial palace. However, when they saw the ten experts of the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom hovering in the air, they were all dumbfounded. A peak expert like the Heaven Saint Master was not someone they could deal with. Even though there were thousands of them, they were powerless before a peak expert like the Heaven Saint Master.
The king walked out of the garden under the protection of a few experts of the Black Armored Army. When he saw the ten Heaven Saint Masters hovering in the air, his face became extremely stern. However, he did not stop because of this. With his head held high, he walked over with large strides.
One of the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom's experts discovered the King and said to the others in a low voice, "Look, that person should be the King of the Kingdom of Gesun."
The ten Heavenly Eagle Kingdom's experts all looked at the King. One of them nodded and said, "It should be him. Let the Old Man capture him." With that, the old man flew toward the King.
"Don't even think about it!" Ye Ming angrily roared. He moved in front of the old man and attacked without any hesitation. The Saint Weapon in his hand slashed toward the old man with powerful ripples of energy.
A cold light flashed through the old man's eyes. He immediately drew his own Saint Weapon and began fighting with Ye Ming.
"Let's end this quickly. Bai Lie, the two of us will go help elder Mo." One of the old men said in a low voice. He then drew his own weapon and charged toward Ye Ming.
The old man standing next to him nodded and joined the battle. The three of them attacked Ye Ming at the same time.
The three experts from the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom were not any weaker than Ye Ming. In fact, one of them was even stronger than Ye Ming. Ye Ming was fighting one against three and the pressure on him was immense. He was completely suppressed by the three of them and could only block and dodge. He had no strength to retaliate.
After all, he did not have the supreme battle prowess of the Imperial Advisor of the Qin Empire or Chang Wuji.
The battle between the four of them was extremely intense. Every time they collided, a powerful energy storm would erupt and wreak havoc. It was as if thunder was rumbling from the nine heavens. The powerful shockwaves of energy caused the Gesun Kingdom's imperial palace to be in a mess. A large number of soldiers were affected and suffered heavy casualties.
The imperial palace immediately became chaotic. The thousands of elite soldiers gathered at the entrance of the palace all fled in all directions, avoiding the disaster that was descending from the sky.
"Your majesty, let's go!" The few experts of the Black Armored Army who were protecting the king also saw that the situation was bad. They forcefully carried the king and fled into the depths of the palace. They knew that there was no power in the palace that could stop the ten Heaven Saint Masters. The only way was to escape.
One of the experts from the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom noticed the experts of the Black Armored Army who were carrying the king into the depths of the palace. He sneered, "Hmph, you want to leave? Do you think we're just decorations?" As soon as he finished speaking, the expert shot through the air with a dense earth elemental energy in pursuit of the king.
The expression of one of the experts of the Black Armored Army changed. He cried out, "Oh no, they're coming. Protect the king and leave. I'll stop them."
"Be careful, commander!"
"Take care, commander!"
The experts of the Black Armored Army all cried out. Their faces were distressed, but they did not slow down at all. They carried the king and fled into the depths of the palace in an attempt to use a secret passage to escape.
A shiny, silver curved blade appeared in the commander's hand. He coldly stared at the Heaven Saint Master who was rapidly approaching him. Suddenly, he roared out.
"The first form of the Bi Family's Blade Technique, Heaven's Splitter!"
The silver curved blade became a jade-green color in a single moment, making it seem extremely demonic. Afterward, a green light erupted from the blade, illuminating the sky with resplendent light. It dyed the surroundings green as it shot through the air, heading toward the Heaven Saint Master with lightning-like speed.
At the same time, a pressure that belonged to the world suddenly appeared. It permeated the surrounding space, and the Heaven Saint Master who had been targeted by the light felt it the most. He only felt that the surrounding space seemed to be squeezing him, as if he had fallen into a quagmire. His movements were greatly hindered.
"I- this is a Heaven Tier Battle Skill!" The expression of the Heaven Saint Master who had chased after the king changed drastically. His face was filled with disbelief as he stared at the black-armored Earth Saint Master in front of him. He had never imagined that a mere Earth Saint Master of the Gesun Kingdom would actually possess such a precious Heaven Tier Battle Skill.
"What? The commander actually knows a Heaven Tier Battle Skill! " The few experts of the Black Armored Army who were carrying the King into the depths of the palace also stopped in their tracks. Their eyes widened as they stared at the Black Armored Army Commander behind them in disbelief.
In the air above the imperial palace, the six idle Heaven Saint Masters were drawn over by the pressure of the Heaven Tier Battle Skill. They all cried out and began to rush toward the Black Armored Army expert who had used the Heaven Tier Battle Skill. Their eyes shone with greed as they all wanted to obtain the cultivation method of the Heaven Tier Battle Skill from the Black Armored Army expert as soon as possible.
The three experts of the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom who were fighting against Ye Ming could not resist the temptation of the Heaven Tier Battle Skill. The three of them roared out in unison and used their full strength to heavily injure Ye Ming. He fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. Without any hesitation, they quickly charged toward the commander.
The expert who had been targeted by the Heaven Tier Battle Skill calmed down very quickly. A cruel smile appeared on his face as he chuckled, "I never thought that a puny Earth Saint Master would actually know a Heaven Tier Battle Skill. This has truly exceeded my expectations. However, with your strength, you won't be able to use the Heaven Tier Battle Skill at all. Even if you do, you won't be able to threaten me. I'll show you the power of my Earth Tier Battle Skill." With that, the huge sword in the Heaven Saint Master's hand shone with a bright yellow light as he used his Earth Tier Battle Skill to contend against the Heaven Tier Battle Skill.
The two collided, erupting with a powerful storm of energy that sent the palaces on both sides flying. The ground also cracked inch by inch, forming thick cracks.
