In the desolate desert.
Castles and cities that clearly carried the style of the Western Regions stood tall and erect. Oases, lakes, running water, date palm trees, camels, and so on formed a perfect scenery.
It was evening now. Smoke curled straight up into the sky. It was like a lonely smoke rising in the desert, a round sun setting over a long river.
"Ma Ge City" was a big city in the Western Region. It had a population of several million, a city wall that was dozens of feet high, and a hundred thousand soldiers. The city lord was a noble prince of the Fire Luo Nation of the Western Region, "Hadami". When translated into the language of the Great Qian Dynasty, it meant "sweet".
Indeed, this was a 'sweet' city that was not inferior to the few important cities of the Great Qian Dynasty. It had a fertile oasis, and behind the city was a tall snowy mountain. Snow water flowed down all year round, moisturizing the dry desert. It was enough for people to rest and recuperate.
This "Ma Ge City" was like the "Fan City" of the Fan Province, the "Sunrise City" of the Xu Province, and the "Taikang City" of the Central Province. Once this big city and the surrounding land were occupied, it was simply equivalent to establishing a country. They would be able to dominate the world and have the power to laugh at the world.
But now, this big city has already been occupied by the 'young marshal'.
Given the young marshal's current magical power, vitality, and spirit, he was comparable to a Human Immortal at the peak of martial arts. He had broken through the limits of his body, traveled the heavens, and entered the earth. He had secret realms, and his acupoints were full of vital energy. Plus, his disciples were like wolves and tigers. If they were not at the peak of Wu Sheng, they were just ordinary Wu Sheng. They also had secret armors. Although they were not as good as Dragon Scale Armors or Aurora Armors, they could at least fly.
Attacking a city and plundering a land was always successful.
Right now, the young marshal was standing on top of a magnificent ancient castle. It was surrounded by gorgeous carpets, expensive oil paintings, gold and silver utensils, and beautiful women with precious stones. This was the main fortress of Ma Ge City. Now that it had been conquered by the young marshal's army, it naturally became the 'young marshal's mansion'.
"Master, a few senior martial brothers and I have already brought troops to control all the officials in the city. The assembly to swear allegiance to Master has already begun. Those generals who have surrendered all respect Master as the 'Heavenly God King'. Now that our army has taken over Damascus City, it can be said that we have truly stabilized our foundation. We already have six hundred thousand soldiers and a large number of granaries. We can eat fine food for thirty years and rule over six million people. "
Just as the young commander stood on top of the ancient castle and looked down at the majestic city that was under his complete control, eight yellow-armored disciples walked over and knelt down on one knee.
These disciples were all at the peak of Wu Sheng. Although none of them were Human Immortals, they possessed formidable combat power. It was not impossible for them to kill off a level 5 Lightning Tribulation expert.
He was a core disciple of the young marshal. "Eight Great Kings of Dou!"
"Master, should we continue attacking now?" another disciple asked.
"There's no need. We've already conquered 13 cities. We need to reorganize and digest what we've gained." The young marshal shook his head. "These Western Regioners are not truly loyal to me. There are still sporadic uprisings in the cities we've conquered these days, right? I have to use an iron fist to kill and imprison a batch before I can establish a permanent rule. But that's secondary. What's important is that the few of you must cultivate to become Human Immortals. Only after you've cultivated to become Human Immortals can you advance to the Mystique Secret Realm of One Aperture Unblocked Hundred Apertures. Like me, become a peak Human Immortal, break free from the shackles of life, and extend your lifespan. "
"Yes!" the eight disciples said in unison.
"You may leave! You must be thoroughly exhausted from the slaughter these days. Rest well for a few days and improve your strength, "the young marshal said indifferently. The eight disciples left one by one.
"The recent slaughter has improved my cultivation quite a bit. Perhaps it's because of the pressure from the Central World! It won't be long before I reach the realm where my fist intent can materialize. I might even be able to step into the supreme mystique realm, Flesh Derivation! I've kept this Dharma treasure for a long time. It's time for it to completely fuse with my body. "
With a flick of his fingers, a strange weapon appeared in the young marshal's hand.
It was a weapon that resembled both a whip and a mace, but also a short staff. Numerous talismans were carved on its surface, as well as spatial specks that resembled acupoints.
"Solitary King's Whip, oh Solitary King's Whip …" The young marshal stroked the iron whip. "The Central World will truly begin its invasion of the Greater Thousand Immortal World in a few years. Xu Yi, the eight ministers, Hong Xuanji, Hong Yi, and Yang Pan will fight to the death. If I grow up here, perhaps I'll become the ruler of the Greater Thousand Immortal World in the future. "
"Hehehe … hehehehe, it looks like the young marshal's plan isn't small at all!" A woman's voice rang out and reached the young marshal's consciousness.
That's right, it wasn't a voice, but fist intent!
"Who's there?!"
The young marshal didn't panic in the face of danger. He swung the Solitary King's Whip in his hand and viciously attacked the source of the fist intent. A razor-sharp fist intent tore through the boundless space, heading straight for the voice's mental body.
"What a Solitary King's Strike." The fist intent came again. "Young marshal, we're old friends, yet you're attacking so viciously the moment we meet. Fortunately, my Li Fu's Seven Styles isn't rusty."
"Li Fu Star Lord, you're here too? It was Hong Xuanji who dragged you here, wasn't it? Did the Minister of War take over your Li Fu Star? But it seems he's very interested in female Human Immortals. Be careful, he might capture you. "The young marshal stopped.
"How have you been, Young Marshal?"
Rumble!
At this moment, a crack in the castle's main hall suddenly split open. Li Fu Star Lord, Flaming Sun Star Lord, Martial Paragon Cang Lang, and Beichen Star Lord walked out in a line.
"Beichen, Flaming Sun, Martial Paragon? Weren't you all imprisoned in the Deathly Still Sky Prison? "The young marshal was shocked to see this.
"The Deathly Still Sky Prison was breached, so we naturally came out." The Flaming Sun Star Lord looked at the young marshal.
"Breached? How is that possible? Who breached it? Could it be Yang Pan? Hong Xuanji? Impossible. Even though the Boat of Fortune was strong, it was still destroyed by the eight ministers. Xu Yi and Xu Wuyi. " The young marshal stood upright, the Sole King's Whip in his hand. "But since you all came out, what do you want?"
"Nothing much, I just want you to rely on someone!" The Li Fu Star Lord laughed.
"Hahahaha, even though the four of you are strong, you're still a little bit lacking to suppress me, the young marshal. If I want to leave, which one of you can stop me? "The young marshal smiled coldly.
"We are all Star Lords after all. We have a common enemy. Wouldn't it hurt our friendship if we fought? But you once surrounded and killed someone, so we can't just let it slide. "The Flaming Sun Star Lord said.
Rumble!
Suddenly, twelve powerful forces came from the void. Twelve shadows landed on the ground at the same time. The entire castle shook as if it was hit by an earthquake. It was on the verge of collapse.
Feeling the power of the twelve Wild Gods, the young marshal's expression changed again in an instant.
"Young marshal, how have you been?"
Along with the twelve Wild Gods, Hong Yi's figure appeared. Beside him was a woman dressed in blue. She was naturally one of the five ancient divine kings, Gou Li.
"Hong Yi! It's you! "The young marshal gritted his teeth.
"That's right, it's me!" Hong Yi looked at the Young Marshal and waved his hand, "This time, I made a trip to the Heaven's Beyond Heavens and broke the Deathly Silence Sky Prison. Beichen, Li Fu, and Wu Zun were all rescued by me. And this Gou Li, he also took the opportunity to escape from the prison. "
"Sole King's body?" Gou Li saw the Sole King's Whip in the young marshal's hand and was startled. He then grabbed it! Whoosh! A suction force was emitted, covering the young marshal from head to toe. It wanted to take away his Sole King's Whip.
"Destroy!"
The young marshal frowned. His entire body exploded with shocking power. 800 acupoints revolved at the same time, forming a bow shape.
"Arrow Piercing Cloud!"
He stacked his middle finger and index finger together and pointed at Godly King Gou Li.
"En!"
Just as the young marshal moved, the twelve Wild Gods took a step forward at the same time. A huge pressure pressed down on the young marshal.
Kacha, Kacha!
Under the pressure of the twelve Wild Gods, the young marshal actually felt suffocated. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't handle the power of twelve Wild Gods alone. Even a nine tribulation expert couldn't do it.
Sou sou sou sou!
Under this pressure, the young marshal's face turned pale. At the same time, the Sole King's Whip in his hand was taken by Gou Li.
"Du Wang was a demon god general under the Undying God King. Who would have thought that he was made into a whip by the Eternal God Emperor. No wonder this whip has unparalleled divine abilities. Young Commander, you must have obtained this treasure by chance, right?" Godly King Gou Li sighed softly as if he was reminiscing about the ancient times.
"You … You really are Gou Li?" The young marshal's true qi surged to resist the pressure of the twelve Wild Gods. His eyes were wide open. Although he was at an absolute disadvantage, with his cultivation base, he could still disregard life and death.
However, seeing Gou Li was too shocking. He couldn't help but be moved.
"That's right, I am Gou Li, one of the five great Gou Li kings." Gou Li said softly, "I don't want this Sole King's Whip. It just makes me sad for a while." As he said that, he threw the Sole King's Whip back into the young marshal's hand.
"If that's the case, Hong Yi, last time I surrounded you, you want to surround and kill me now?" The young marshal took the Sole King's Whip and stared at Hong Yi.
"Young marshal, I don't need to surround and kill you. You can ask them. I even killed the war minister and refined him. The Dead Silence Sky Prison was also broken by me. These are the twelve Wild Gods who were suppressing the prison. I also captured them and erased their spiritual imprints. Are you my opponent? " Hong Yi smiled. Then, his expression turned cold. "To be honest, if I wanted to kill you now, it would be as easy as flipping my palm!"
"The war minister was killed by you? Twelve Wild Gods? These were the legendary twelve Wild Gods that suppressed the Dead Silence Sky Prison? No wonder they are so powerful! Rumor has it that the people of Central World spent five thousand years to create these twelve powerful war machines. I wonder how many Human Immortal corpses were used … "The young marshal's heart thumped. He calmed down after a while, as if he was thinking about something.
"Hong Yi, you possess such great strength. Yet, you have come to find me. However, it is not to kill me, right?" The young marshal said, "I am now the West Conquering General personally appointed by Qian Emperor Yang Pan. I am the most famous person in the court. Rumor has it that the imperial court set up the Grand Council last night, but did not include Prince Yu, whom you support, in it. Do you want me to write a memorial to exert pressure on the imperial court to recommend Prince Yu into the Grand Council? "
"Haha, young marshal is young marshal! As expected of someone who once ruled a star. " Hong Yi didn't expect the young marshal to be so astute. He immediately guessed what he wanted to do.
"So are you going to do it or not? However, this is not the only thing I want you to do. Your disciples must all pledge their loyalty to Prince Yu. You must support Prince Yu with all your might in the future. " Hong Yi said slowly, "Moreover, the four Holy Lords Li Fu, Wu Zun, Bei Chen, and Yan Yang will follow your army to pacify the west and occupy the whole of Chara. What do you think, young marshal?"
Hong Yi wanted the four Star Lords to "help" the young marshal to pacify the west in order to completely suppress the young marshal.
In fact, when the young marshal tried to kill him, he could have killed the young marshal. He could have refined the young marshal's essence into a Progenitor Dragon and become one with the progenitor, improving his body further. However, the young marshal had an extremely high prestige in the imperial court. If he submitted a petition to forcefully oppose the imperial court and support Prince Yu, he would be a huge force that was comparable to more than ten governors.
"Even if I've cultivated to the Crushing Vacuum Realm, I'm afraid I'll have to bow my head against such a lineup," the young marshal said.
"Four Star Lords, I left a door of illusion on you. If anything happens, I will rush over immediately." Hong Yi said, "God-King Gou Li, let's go visit Fan Province's governor and the Philosophers Clan, the number one Fan Clan."
