Illusory Spirit Swamp.
In the muddy swamp, an astonishing battle had erupted. Two powerful seventh rank spirit beasts were fighting each other. A frightening force spread out in all directions, causing the muddy swamp to churn unceasingly, causing the muddy swamp to splash everywhere.
These two seventh grade spirit beasts were fighting for territory. Such a scene was common in the Illusory Spirit Swamp. The Illusory Spirit Swamp was similar to the Wildlands. The deeper one went, the more powerful spirit beasts there were.
In this area, these two seventh grade spirit beasts were not considered powerful because there were many more spirit beasts that were stronger than them.
Suddenly.
A sonic boom resounded. The air was suddenly compressed and the swamp seemed to have exploded, causing mud to splatter everywhere.
The two seventh grade spirit beasts that were fighting suddenly froze and stopped their battle in a daze. They stared at the figure that appeared above their heads after the sonic boom disappeared.
It was a tall and sturdy figure clad in armor. True energy coiled around his body like a dragon.
The man had a face as sharp as a knife. He had a buzz cut and thick eyebrows. He glanced at the two seventh grade spirit beasts and slightly furrowed his brows.
A terrifying pressure was emitted from his body. The two seventh grade spirit beasts were so frightened that they crawled on the ground and hid deep into the swamp. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
As spirit beasts, they could sense the danger emitted from this human.
A sonic boom resounded once again. Then, the man tore through the air and dashed into the distance once again.
...
The Wildlands.
The towering tree that pierced through the clouds was suddenly snapped in half at the waist.
A huge bird-like spirit beast with wings as sharp as knives flew out. It was like a sword flashing by, cutting down all the trees in its path.
On the back of this frightening bird-type spirit beast stood a fiendish, bald young man. The young man's skin was bronze in color, and his entire body seemed to be made of molten copper. It was a very peculiar sight, and the muscles on his body were like the roots of an ancient tree that were entwined inch by inch, filled with an explosive sense of power.
The bald young man stood on the back of the spirit beast. His eyes were like lightning as he stared into the distance of the Wildlands.
"Our Ferocious Temple has lost two strong warriors this time. Xia Yu had a high chance of becoming a Supreme-Being, but in the end, he died … We must take revenge for this. As for the Shura Sect demon, we must crush him to death! Otherwise, this group of demons will jump up again and stir up panic in the Southern Border. "
The bald man's eyes flickered and he snorted. He exerted force with his feet, causing the spirit bird to let out a shrill cry. It flapped its wings and sped up.
A man and a bird transformed into a streak of light, instantly disappearing from the Wildlands.
The Immeasurable Mountain towered into the clouds and the Hundred Thousand Mountains stretched as far as the eye could see.
They had misjudged the strength of the Shura's Gate's group of experts, so they hurriedly sent experts to remedy the situation.
A few hundred miles away from the Imperial Capital.
Ji Chengyu's army was stationed here. He wasn't in a hurry to attack the Imperial City of the Light Wind Empire because he knew that this kind of thing couldn't be rushed.
After all, this was the capital city of an empire, where the strongest experts of the empire were gathered. Although he had the Shura Sect behind him, he still had to be cautious.
He had no choice but to be cautious, because if he failed, he would be facing … eternal damnation.
Zhao Musheng, who was wearing a long robe, slowly walked in front of Ji Chengyu.
He chuckled.
"King Yu, you must be very excited about taking back what belongs to you."
"What's there to be excited about? Enough people have died in this war," Ji Chengyu said after taking a deep breath.
Zhao Musheng faintly smiled and stood beside King Yu. He gazed at the majestic Imperial City several hundred miles away, and the expression in his eyes gradually became fierce.
"After conquering the Imperial City, I don't have any other requests. I just want you to leave that Bu Fang to me."
"Bu Fang? His store has a supreme beast guarding it. "
"It's just a supreme beast. We also have a supreme beast here … There's no need to be afraid. I have a feeling that Fang Fang's Little Store is hiding a huge secret. Even if it's not for that secret, obtaining that Path-Understanding Tree is not a bad thing." Zhao Musheng rubbed his fingers as a trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes.
All of a sudden, he raised his head and looked behind him.
He saw two beams of blood-colored light traversing across the sky and instantly hovering above their heads.
Among the troops, an old man suddenly opened his eyes.
With a step, the old man appeared in the sky and hovered in front of the two beams of blood-colored light.
"Blood Guards? Aren't you guys guarding the Sacred Tower at Border City? Why are you here … Did something happen to the Sacred Tower? "
The old man frowned and solemnly said.
"Greetings, Venerable One."
The two Blood Guards cupped their hands at the old man and then told him what the High Priestess had told them.
A Soul Congregation Array was stolen by someone, and it ended up appearing in the Imperial Capital …
The Venerable One's eyes suddenly narrowed and a trace of coldness appeared in his eyes.
"Could it have been stolen by the experts of the Celestial Arcanum Sect? Impossible … The experts of the Celestial Arcanum Sect did not appear in the Imperial City. It shouldn't be them. Could it be the experts of the Hundred Thousand Mountains? "
The Venerable One had some doubts in his heart because he had always sent people to keep an eye on the experts entering and leaving the Imperial City. No matter how he thought about it, he could not figure out who could have stolen the Soul Congregation Array.
The three of them landed on the ground.
King Yu and Zhao Musheng immediately walked over.
The Blood Guards naturally did not fear the nobles of the secular world. They only slightly nodded their heads to show that they had met before.
When Zhao Musheng heard the conversation between the three, his eyes lit up.
"Venerable One, I might know who is most likely in possession of the Soul Congregation Array …"
"Who?!"
The eyes of the two Blood Guards immediately lit up and they shouted at the same time. A terrifying aura burst forth from their bodies, bringing with it a huge pressure.
This pressure caused Zhao Musheng and King Yu to suck in a breath of cold air.
"There's a small store in the imperial city called Fang Fang's Little Store. The store is guarded by a supreme beast. Since there are no supreme experts in the imperial city at the moment, the store is the most likely to snatch away the Soul Congregation Array," Zhao Musheng hurriedly said, his eyes flickering.
The Venerable One gave him a deep look and coldly smiled.
He naturally saw through Zhao Musheng's intentions. However, according to what Zhao Musheng said, if that store had a supreme beast … then he had to pay it a visit, regardless of whether he had the Soul Congregation Array or not.
Their ultimate goal was to invade the Imperial City, and a force with a supreme beast overseeing it naturally could not be ignored.
"Then what are we waiting for … Let's quickly invade the Imperial City! The high priest is already very angry, "the Blood Guard anxiously said.
Suddenly, the complexion of one of the Blood Guards changed. With a pinch of his hand, a jade plate appeared.
The jade plate was surrounded by many specks of light. Among them, there was a very bright speck of light.
"The Soul Congregation Array has appeared again!"
The Blood Guard said.
...
In an alleyway of the Imperial City, Fang Fang's Little Store.
Bu Fang was curled up on a chair with his eyes slightly narrowed.
A slight breeze blew past, bringing with it a slight chill.
The store's business was not doing well. Once the news of Xiao Meng's severe injuries spread, the entire Imperial City was in a state of panic. Many people hid in their homes and did not choose to come out for a meal.
The bored Bu Fang moved his mind, and the five jade talismans he brought back from the Western Mystery City appeared in his hand.
These five jade talismans were a little shabby, and there were many fine cracks on them, as if they could break at any time.
The jade talismans rotated and formed a magic array. Within the array, there were white mist-like spirit essences circulating. From time to time, these spirit essences would transform into vague human faces, emitting bone-chilling roars.
"This magic array is really evil." Bu Fang furrowed his brows.
After observing it for a while, he felt bored and put away the jade talisman magic array.
In the distance, a figure was slowly approaching.
Bu Fang was slightly startled.
"Xiao Meng?"
The figure that appeared in front of Bu Fang was the Xiao Meng, who was currently the talk of the Imperial City. The severely injured Xiao Meng.
Xiao Meng's complexion was not very good. It was so pale that it looked a little green.
Bu Fang stood up, and Xiao Meng also stepped into the store.
Ouyang Xiaoyi was also a little stunned when she saw Xiao Meng. However, Xiao Meng's frail appearance made her a little worried.
"Owner Bu, give me a jar of Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine." Xiao Meng's voice was a little hoarse. Just as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but cough.
After coughing for a while, he actually coughed out black blood.
"You've been poisoned." Bu Fang looked at him calmly. The black blood was a little familiar to him. It seemed to be similar to the poison in the Southern City's Second Master Xiao, but the toxicity was more intense.
The Demonic Fish Meat was still in his system's dimensional storage, and he didn't know if it would work.
"Owner Bu must be joking. Now that the army is approaching, and I, Xiao Meng, am seriously injured, I really don't have the face to face the people of the Imperial City. Tomorrow, His Majesty will have the final negotiation with Ji Chengyu. If the negotiation fails, it will be the start of the war. When that time comes, I don't have the confidence to survive. "
Xiao Meng smiled bitterly.
"That's why I came to Owner Bu's place today to drink one last jar of Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine."
Tap tap tap.
Just as Xiao Meng finished speaking, a beautiful figure rushed in from outside the door. It was the graceful figure of Xiao Yanyu. At this moment, Xiao Yanyu was not wearing a veil, and her exquisite and beautiful face looked a little haggard.
"Father..."
Xiao Yanyu's voice was a little choked up.
Bu Fang didn't say anything. He just turned around and went into the kitchen. After a while, he came back with a jar of Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine and placed it in front of Xiao Meng.
Xiao Meng looked at the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine and laughed. He raised the jar and drank it in big mouthfuls.
Xiao Meng was too deeply poisoned. Even though this poison was similar to the one Second Master Xiao suffered from, there were still some differences. Xiao Yanyu knew that Bu Fang had cured Second Master Xiao of his poison. She had also thought of looking for Bu Fang, but... she was very clear that Bu Fang relied on the Demonic Fish's Meat Essence to cure Second Master Xiao of his poison. Although the meat essence could cure Second Master Xiao of his poison, it might not be able to cure Xiao Meng's.
Bu Fang also sighed. He clinked his cup with Xiao Meng's and drank it in one gulp.
Just as the two of them were happily drinking, a roar suddenly resounded outside the Imperial City. The angry roar of tens of thousands of soldiers resounded through the sky and traveled into the Imperial City.
Xiao Meng suddenly put down the jar of Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine. His mind was greatly shaken, and he suddenly stood up.
"Didn't they say that they would negotiate tomorrow? Why did Ji Chengyu's army directly attack the city?! "
