The death of thousands of Imperial Guard soldiers made Xuanyuan's heart ache. One must know that these people had all been handpicked from the Blue Dragon Sacred Land. They were the elites of the elites, and every one of them could be said to be geniuses.
Moreover, during this period of time, they had gone through fire and water. Everyone had developed a bond, and Xuanyuan could call out each and every one of their names. But they had died just like that. He did not feel good about it.
Every warrior from the Xuanwu Army and Phoenix Army had fallen into deep self-reproach. They had been careless and had fallen into the enemy's Great Holy Corpse Formation.
They had thought that these Holy Corpses had no intelligence, and like the Asura Battle Demons, they had suffered the consequences of being trapped in the formation.
After escaping from the corpse drivers, the Master of Order flew into a rage. When they returned to the Ancient Emperor Dragon Warship, he threw them into the Flames of Order space.
The intensity of the Flame of Order this time caused them to suffer ten times more pain than before.
Even so, they had no complaints. Their carelessness had led to the deaths of their comrades.
Their comrades had died not because they were too weak, but because they were too incompetent.
This sentence kept echoing in their minds. This time, they would have to endure more than three years of pain and suffering.
Even Xuanyuan could not bear to see this. He said, "Isn't this a little too cruel?"
They could all hear Xuanyuan pleading for them.
The Master of Order said coldly, "What a joke. Do you think that when the Central Realm is complete, the terrifying existences from the foreign realms will be merciful?"
"But the battlefield is unpredictable. You cannot blame them entirely," Xuanyuan added.
"Holy Lord Xuanyuan, please do not say anything more. We will bear the consequences," the 99,000 Imperial Guard soldiers shouted in unison, their voices so loud that even the deaf could hear them.
Xuanyuan was speechless. With the speed of time, a hundred days inside was one day outside. Ten days had passed.
When they reappeared, every one of them had been reborn. All of them had become ancient sages and emperors.
Xuanyuan was shocked. If it was just a leap in cultivation level, it would be fine. More importantly, their entire aura had changed.
Everyone could feel their unwavering determination to endure all kinds of suffering and torment.
"If you want to become a truly invincible warrior, having a strong heart is the most important. That's because the things they have to bear are too much. They have to protect their home and country. Sometimes, they are even misunderstood by the people they protect. However, these are all things that a warrior should bear." The 'Master of Order' looked at the 99,000 Imperial Guards and said slowly, "All of you have barely passed."
The two Imperial Guards were extremely excited. Among them, there were even more outstanding people who had already reached the second tier of the Ancient Emperor and Ancient Sage Realm. The Master of Order had given them too much, and they were extremely grateful.
"Thank you, Commander." All the Imperial Guards knelt down in unison, their gratitude evident in their words.
The 'Master of Order' waved his hand and did not say anything else. He led the way, and the Ancient Emperor Dragon Warship continued to traverse the void. After seven days and seven nights, they finally entered the Southern Hell Immortal Prefecture.
The Greedy Old Man frowned. "The Asura Battle Emperor once entered the Southern Hell Immortal Prefecture and engaged in a huge battle. His aura lingers in this area. He must have left not long ago."
Xuanyuan used the Eye of Truth to look at the location of the Celestial Race's battle fortress. Indeed, there was a terrifying crater 10,000 li deep, swallowing and spitting out the destructive Asura Battle Dao.
The order of the Great Dao in that area had been destroyed, leaving only a gray patch that was repairing itself.
The huge battle fortress lay there. Previously, it had only been destroyed, but now it was broken into four pieces.
Clearly, the Asura Battle Emperor's attack had caused the Celestial Race to suffer significant damage.
"Haha, this is great. The Celestial Race deserves it." The Great Pig laughed heartily from the side. He was extremely proud.
"The Southern Hell Immortal Prefecture is still moving forward. This means that the Celestial Race's super elites are still alive. Who would have thought that the Asura Battle Emperor would be helpless against the Celestial Race?" Xuanyuan sighed.
"He can't even do anything to us, let alone the even stronger Celestial Race. That's the base camp of the Celestial Race. Let's go back and ask Wu Luo about the specifics." The 'Master of Order' raised an eyebrow. He did not find this strange. No matter how strong the Asura Battle Emperor was, he was just one person. How could he compare to the colossal Celestial Race?
Xuanyuan nodded. The Ancient Emperor Dragon Warship crossed the void and was sealed by the Immortal Devouring Residence.
The huge Ancient Emperor Dragon Warship appeared in the sky above Xuanyuan City.
When they set off, the Ancient Emperor Dragon Warship was brand new. Who would have thought that after more than a month, it would be covered in ghastly cracks. Many experts from the Blue Dragon Holy Land paled.
"The Ancient Emperor Dragon Warship is an Earth-rank unparalleled dao treasure. I'm shocked that it has been damaged to this extent."
"Yeah, the Ancient Emperor Dragon Warship used to be a Heaven-rank unparalleled dao treasure. It's just that it has fallen. However, not long ago, it was fused with many natural treasures from the Master of Order. It's incredibly sturdy. What happened?"
"Looks like we've suffered heavy casualties this time...."
"Look, they're coming out."
Xuanyuan, Hwang Yue-chan, and the Taotie were the first to step out. They landed in front of the Blue Dragon Hall. After this round of training, Hwang Yue-chan had completely stepped into the peak of the Third Heaven of Ancient Emperor Realm and was as stable as a mountain. As for the Taotie, he had devoured countless things and his strength had skyrocketed. He had stepped into the Third Heaven of Ancient Sage Realm, and his fighting strength was comparable to some Fourth Heaven of Ancient Sage Realm Ancient Emperors. There was just too much power stored in his body.
The pig-headed Great Emperor's strength had also skyrocketed. Peng Fei looked even more unfathomable. One of his eyes was black while the other was white. The black eyes had a white pupil, and the white eyes had a black pupil.
The Master of Order arrived with 99,000 Imperial Army experts. His majestic Ancient Emperor and Ancient Sage aura swept through the surroundings.
"Over 1,200 Imperial Guards have perished this time. The remaining 99,000 Imperial Guards have all broken through to the Ancient Sage or Ancient Emperor Realm." The Master of Order's voice was not loud, but it traveled far and wide. It was clear.
The 3,000 Confucian scholars looked at the Imperial Army from afar, shocked.
"In just a short month, all of them have stepped into the Ancient Sage Realm. Their dao hearts have become as firm as a rock, and their will is hard to break. The Master of Order is really powerful."
"They've been reborn. If we don't talk about knowledge and only talk about fighting strength, I'm afraid I won't be a match for some of them."
"Amazing. Really amazing. Now, they're the Black Tortoise Holy Guard and Battle Phoenix Holy Guard."
"This is a sign of prosperity for the Blue Dragon Holy Ground...."
The 3,000 Confucian scholars were overjoyed. They were civil officials who could bring peace to the world, and generals who could bring peace to the world. They could distinguish between inside and outside. The strength of the Imperial Army naturally surprised them.
At this moment, countless elites of the Blue Dragon Holy Ground had gathered in the arena. They looked at the reborn and powerful Imperial Army, and their blood was boiling.
The 'Master of Order' descended from the sky and transformed into ten clones, who continued to select the candidates, "The Royal Guards are the most elite warriors of the 'Qinglong Sacred Area'. Do you see these over one thousand two hundred sets of Peerless Dao Weapons? Their previous owners were killed in an untimely manner during the trial, with their souls being shattered. When you decide to join the Royal Guards, you must be prepared to die, and have a firm belief. They are all brave warriors, willing to sacrifice their lives for their comrades. Can you do that?"
"Yes." Countless youths were fired up. The 99,000 Imperial Army warriors who survived were their role models.
"Then let's begin." The Master of Order ordered.
Xuanyuan looked at the scene in front of him and didn't say anything. If he could choose a master for the remaining 100,000 sets of supreme rank Taoist instruments and conduct another trial, then his Imperial Army would be completely formed.
"Leave this to the Master of Order. Let's go in." Xu Anyuan looked at Hwang Yue-chan. Along the way, the two of them had used the Blue Dragon Dao Technique and the Immortal Phoenix Dao Technique to attack together. Their combined strength was shocking. Now, the two of them were even more connected.
Within the Blue Dragon Palace, Wu Luo, Zhuge Tianxing, Sima Yi, Wang Nidao, Li Yue, Shangguan Feiyan, Sun Duanfeng, Douzhan Buddha, Avalokitesvara, and Wu Mingtian were all gathered.
Xia Ziyu and Bu Jingsha frowned. Celestial Master Zhang and Emperor Sky were silent.
Seeing Xu Anyuan return, everyone was delighted. Xia Ziyu and Bu Jingsha bowed to Xu Anyuan. "Xu Anyuan, you are finally back."
"That's right. Many things have happened while you were gone. Many of the Imperial Princes are discussing it now." Bu Jingsha still had some lingering fear when he thought about it. He had never seen such a terrifying existence.
"I already know what exactly happened. Did a Heavenly Emperor Asura Battle Emperor appear?" Xu Anyuan smiled.
"Holy Lord Xu Anyuan, how do you know?" Wu Luo frowned.
"The Master of Order brought us into a galaxy node and entered the Shura World. We killed everywhere and angered this Asura Battle Emperor. He was severely injured by us. We couldn't do anything to him, so we escaped. He chased us all the way to the Southern Hell Celestial Province," Xu Anyuan said slowly.
"What? You injured him?" Wu Luo's face was filled with disbelief.
"It's not really a heavy injury. We did pay a huge price to repel it." Hwang Yue-chan shook her head. She still had lingering fear when she thought about the battle. But the Holy Corpse World was just as scary.
"That was a Heavenly Emperor …" Zhuge Tianxing replayed everything that happened that day in his mind.
"What did he do in the Southern Hell Celestial Province?" Xu Anyuan asked.
"With his strength alone, he killed over a hundred million soldiers of the God Race. In the end, he was forced to retreat by eleven old God Emperors using eleven supreme dao artifacts and a supreme divine formation." Sima Yi said concisely.
Xu Anyuan nodded and said, "It's okay. This has nothing to do with us. The most important thing now is to strengthen ourselves and fight for a place of our own in the Central World in the future."
Xuanyuan told them everything he had encountered and learned along the way. They were all shocked by what they had seen.
