Dominating Martial King

Chapter 1776 - 86: Near-God

One hundred thousand, or one hundred twenty thousand? As far as the entire battlefield is concerned, it adds no significant benefit.Conversely, if the opponent hides these sorcerers, unleashing them at a critical moment, the threat and lethality they could bring to the court side would be incomparable.

The bloodline power of Yu Kunlun even gave him a hint of a warning through Spiritual Sense.

Was it intentional to lure him away from Emperor Jianyuan?

However, he still transformed into tunneling light and flashed away, appearing in front of Zhou Zhi.

In recent years, many soldiers of Daning have died or been injured, especially in the past half-year as the court and Iron Banner Gang waged war across the river; the casualties in dozens of battlefields along the river have reached millions.

Thus, in Yu Kunlun’s eyes, each of their soldiers is precious.

As for Emperor Jianyuan’s safety.

There should be no need to worry too much; this emperor has long ceased to be the monarch known to the world.

His combat power has surpassed the Heavenly List, exceeding almost all Divine Sect leaders.

Moreover, beside him are numerous powerful combat forces, including Chu Ming and the Initial Heavenly Gaze.

Not to mention the ’Lighting World Demon Lamp’ hidden behind, Zong Shenhua.

When Yu Kunlun flashed a dozen miles away, his crystal-like body instantly manifested three heads and six arms, each wielding a blade, striking towards Zhou Zhi.

This is the super-grade Heavenly Gang Skill ’Dragon-subduing and Tiger-subduing’!

It imitates the Giant Spirit’s ’Innate Divine Body’ Spell, possessing the Divine Skills of mighty power, morphing into three heads and six arms, capable of subduing True Dragon and suppressing White Tiger.

Yu Kunlun’s body further expanded tenfold, reaching over thirty yards.

This is ’Fatian Xiangdi,’ which can vary in size as he wishes; in large form, his body returns to the ancestor, integrating Heavenly Rules Power, possessing the Power of Giant God of the ancestors; in small form, it hides in mustard seed size, concealing traces.

In their early years, human clan heroes used these two spells to contend with the Giant Spirit.

Zhou Zhi did not confront him directly; he instantly transformed into a point of starlight, appearing high up to a hundred yards, then casually waved a hand, instantly sending a thousand-yard sword aura to slash at Yu Kunlun’s crystal magic body.

Emperor Jianyuan glanced at the two of them from afar, then turned his gaze to the Heavenly Court Commander Wan Qi Luohou.

After Yu Kunlun’s departure, Wan Qi Luohou remained one of the sorcerers he trusted most, and among these, one of the more capable.

"Luo Hou."

Emperor Jianyuan narrowed his eyes: "Can you disperse some of this mist later? I don’t ask for full clearance, just dispersing a part of it will suffice."

Wan Qi Luohou heard the words and smiled, saluting: "No problem, the State Preceptor has reserved five thousand sorcerers not yet used, precisely to dispel the mist. To my knowledge, they’ve already set up the corresponding Array."

Nearby, Xiaao Hongchen instantly and almost imperceptibly frowned.

Recently, he felt increasingly threatened by this Wan Qi Luohou.

"Excellent!"

Emperor Jianyuan praised lightly: "Men, command the entire army, from now on recite the name of Chu Ming! Just say Long Xiang General Chu Ming has beheaded the Iron Banner Gang’s Navy Commander Zhoou Liangchen, and Iron Flag Gang Leader Lu Luanti!"

Chu Ming’s scarlet eyes instantly showed a glimmer of an abnormal light.

Wan Qi Luohou also narrowed his eyes.

Emperor Jianyuan’s move was to draw enemy intent and Kill Intent to Chu Ming.

In the dense fog, both sides’ soldiers had limited vision; they couldn’t see, thus unable to verify.

At this moment, countless Feathered Edict Captains on the Dragon Chariot had already rode out on all sides to deliver the military order.

A portion of them rode godly Dragon Foal Strange Beasts, while another portion rode Four-legged Flying Dragons.

Emperor Jianyuan smiled slightly, sideways glancing at Chu Ming: "Ming’er, this is your first battle, and also the day your name reverberates across the world. Soon you must give your utmost; do not let me down!"

Chu Ming remained silently stoic.

However, on either side of her, shadows emerged.

If looked closely, one would find two giant beasts lurking in the shadows, one being Vengeance, and the other just a skeleton, entirely smothered in black aura — the Three-legged Golden Crow.

Momentarily after, the whole battlefield erupted with thunderous shouts.

"Our army will be victorious! Long Xiang General Chu Ming has beheaded the Iron Banner Gang’s Navy Commander Zhoou Liangchen, slain Iron Flag Gang Leader Lu Luanti!"

"Long Xiang General Chu Ming has slain Zhoou Liangchen and Lu Luanti; Daning triumphs! May the Emperor enjoy eternal prosperity and endless reign!"

The yells of the various divisions of the imperial guards had slight differences, largely similar.

Standing on the Dragon Chariot, Chu Ming had already felt countless enemy intent Kill Intent converging towards her.

Emperor Jianyuan also sensed it, his lips slightly raised: "Ming’er, you may go now. Your only task in this battle is to kill, the more the better. Luo Hou, order those sorcerers to cast a spell now!"

The enemy intent Kill Intent brought forth by the shouts can only last for a moment, and are not very useful.

Those Iron Banner Gang soldiers only know the name Chu Ming; they don’t even know what Chu Ming looks like, or have even heard of her before.

So to maintain it for long, to continue enhancing combat power, the mist still needs to be dispersed.

Emperor Jianyuan looked at Zhou Zhi fighting fiercely with Yu Kunlun in the sky, his Kill Intent boiling to the extreme.

Once this battle is settled, he would definitely deploy the army to level the entire Star Constellation Immortal Sect! Execute their remainder disciples! Completely sever the legacy of this Divine Sect!

Wan Qi Luohou immediately bowed and saluted: "Yes!"

What slightly surprised Emperor Jianyuan was that over the next twenty breaths, Chu Ming stood still, unmoving.

He slightly frowned, tilting his head to look at Chu Ming.

"Ming’er!"

Emperor Jianyuan intensified his tone, simultaneously pressing his powerful Divine Thought of the Near-God Level over her.

Around him, twelve Golden Dragons appeared, coiling and dancing nearby.

He was inwardly surprised.

Could Chu Ming’s will be so strong?

She could resist his orders for so long.

Emperor Jianyuan’s gaze turned icy: "What are you standing there for? Go quickly!"

As Emperor Jianyuan grew more puzzled and found it stranger, and began to harbor a cautious heart, suddenly a strong wind swept through the upstream of Tianhuai River.

This wind not only blew away the mist along the river but also cleared half of the mist above the Daning Central Army’s one hundred and thirty-five thousand Forbidden Army Armor Soldiers.

Chu Ming raised her pale hands before her to look at them, murmuring: "Indeed, it’s my turn to act now! I can’t miss this hard-earned opportunity."

The National Master Yu Kunlun, for the sake of precaution, left a trump card on her, capable of subduing her in an instant.

Chu Ming’s eyes, then her pupils dilated in fury, blood streaming from the corners of her eyes.

Her voice should have been as sweet and clear as a lark.

Yet, the sound she just emitted was harsh and unpleasant, like a broken gong.

In that moment, everyone around Emperor Jianyuan felt their hearts skip a beat.

And in the next instant, a crisp ’clank’ sounded from the Dragon Chariot.

Chu Ming had already drawn her saber, and the saber light like flowing brilliance didn’t point at their enemies, but aimed directly at Emperor Jianyuan’s head.

None of the nearby Inner Palace experts had time to react before they felt absolute Sword Intent penetrate their souls.

They were unable to resist, immediately bleeding from their mouths and noses, half-kneeling on the ground.

Chu Ming’s Divine Intent Saber further shattered the seemingly unstoppable Twelve Dragon God Heavenly Guardian and its mighty Divine Might.

As her flame-imbued golden saber light struck against the drawn Emperor’s Sword from Emperor Jianyuan, the enormous Dragon Chariot spanning a mile in length, shattered with a thunderous crash!

"This saber, thanks to Your Majesty for the grace of nurturing me! Buried alive for eigthy-one days, thank you!"

She uttered almost word by word, with gnashing resentment.

Emperor Jianyuan’s mouth and nose bled, his whole body was split in two by Chu Ming’s strike and flew three miles away.

When he heard what Chu Ming said, his pupils contracted sharply.

Chu Ming had retained the memories of her past life intact!

How could this be? Didn’t the State Preceptor wipe her memories completely?

— Also, how could she shake off the restraint of the Forbidden Curse and strike against him, her master?
