Chapter 430: Immortality, can you bring about a new great age?
This punch caused the sea of thunder to flow backward and tore a hole in the firmament!
A heaven-shaking roar echoed across the sky above Xiaoyang City, and endless thunder light was annihilated under this sweeping fist realm.
Scorching the heavens and burning the earth!
High above in the sky, that giant face of thunder was struck by the backflowing lightning, appearing with hideous cracks before immediately reforming.
The Chen Lord watched in silence.
A breakthrough in the midst of battle?
But this breakthrough of his was no small matter; his fist realm likely improved by two minor stages directly.
Two minor stages!
Such a thing rarely happens.
Especially for a fist realm, which requires comprehension, perception, and even more so, accumulation.
How could anyone, within a single battle, crazily elevate their fist realm to such a degree?
A fist realm is not the same as fist intent.
Every improvement in realm requires the accumulation of time.
"Great Elder..." the Chen Lord said in a deep voice.
The Five Clans, when it comes down to it, are actually four clans.
Because there is one clan that has never emerged; it is very mysterious and also very terrifying.
For so many years, Chen Prefecture, Chi Prefecture, and Ji Prefecture have all been mocking Lu Prefecture.
Because Lu Prefecture abandoned Lu Xunyang, was blind, and had no brains.
Could it be that his Chen Prefecture is to become the second Lu Prefecture?
The Chen Lord slowly shook his head; in truth, there is no need to regret anything.
What was it that Chen Yan said?
His heart holds the Great Xia and even more so, the human race.
A person capable of saying such things could never submit to Chen Prefecture.
"Re-test Chen Yan's strength and match him with the person closest in strength," the Chen Lord said in a deep voice.
The researchers had already begun to do so.
On the large screen, face after face flashed by, and the Chen Lord's expression grew increasingly ugly and complex.
Until one face appeared.
"It is me."
A deep male voice sounded, and a researcher took off his lab coat and entered the laboratory directly.
Everyone fell silent.
That person was none other than the 369th on the Tier 6 Ranking, Chen Jun.
Chen Yan's single promotion had actually increased his strength by this much.
What kind of fist intent is that exactly?
It is so overbearing.
It is actually able to directly contend with a thunder tribulation.
"Chen Lord," the man named Chen Jun said calmly inside the laboratory:
"This subordinate suggests that one must be decisive when it is time to be!"
His voice was cold, but filled with killing intent.
Be decisive, how to be decisive?
Naturally, by exterminating him, by killing him.
Chen Jun was clearly also shocked; he was already 135 years old, and how much had he paid and how many risks had he taken to reach his current strength?
Yet that Chen Yan, in less than a year, had reached the same strength as him.
Chen Jun was afraid.
Such an existence, even if he were captured by Lu Prefecture for experiments, or even if he were like Chen Changyuan, having no heart for the world and living only for himself, would be fine.
Chen Changyuan is very powerful, but has anyone ever worried about him?
No.
That person is selfish to the extreme, indifferent to life, and lives only for his own martial path.
Such an invincible one is reassuring!
What the Five Clans worry about is Lu Xunyang, and those like Chen Yan.
Those are the true great enemies who would raise a butcher's knife against them.
This person dared to question the Xia Lord Sword with his own Tier 1 Star General position; his heart holds the Great Xia and even more so, the human race.
How many Great Xia people have shed tears because of this one sentence?
How many Xia Clan people have completely accepted Chen Yan because of this one sentence?
Xia Qi and the Xia Clan both know his value; could the Chen Clan not know it?
Such a heaven-gifted talent heading toward the Great Xia is chilling!
Being soft on an enemy is being cruel to oneself!
The Chen Lord did not speak; he could not speak.
"System re-simulating, judging..."
A researcher's voice was strained as he spoke hesitantly:
"The system judges that Chen Jun can pass the ninth... thunder tribulation..."
As his voice fell, the laboratory fell into a dead silence.
There were only nine bolts of Thunder Flame beneath that thunderous human face; anyone could see that Chen Yan was only facing nine bolts of lightning tribulation.
Now, the system judged that Chen Jun could survive the lightning tribulation, which meant that Chen Yan could also survive it.
Quiet.
No one spoke.
Right now, no one in the entire laboratory wanted Chen Yan to live.
Hum!
A screen of light appeared before Chen Zhu.
Inside the light screen was a woman wearing pitch-black battle armor.
The woman's appearance was beautiful to the extreme, yet there was an unmaskable majesty between her brows.
The Empress of Jizhou, the only person in this world to claim the title of Emperor.
Because she claimed the title of Emperor, Jizhou and the Xia Clan stood on opposite sides.
The world preferred to call her, Ji Zhu.
Ji Zhu looked at Chen Zhu and spoke lightly:
"You should make your move; do not hesitate any longer."
Chen Zhu remained silent, and Ji Zhu frowned slightly, saying with a trace of disdain:
"I will not say more, but if you continue to hesitate, you will lose everything."
Having said this, the communication was cut off just like that.
Chen Zhu still did not speak.
Everyone knew what Ji Zhu was talking about.
Chen Yan.
A Fourth-Rank, who at this moment was actually making the ruler of Great Xia, Chen Zhu, and Ji Zhu—the three giants of the world—play a game of chess in the shadows.
The next moment.
Xiaoyang City.
Inside a very ordinary residential house, an old man with graying hair hung up the communication, and the next moment, he knelt deeply toward a certain direction.
Before him, the light screen slowly vanished, showing the same figure of Ji Zhu.
The peerless Empress just watched the old man, her expression remaining cold, as she slowly dissipated along with the light screen.
The old man remained kneeling, his eyes turbid, filled with despair and a readiness to meet his death.
"I know you are forcing me, and I know that even if I don't make a move, you won't kill my descendants.
You also know that if I make a move, I will surely die, and I know it too; the success rate is pitifully small."
The old man revealed a bitter smile: "But I cannot afford not to make a move; if I don't, my descendants will die in the future."
He stood up, pointed with one hand, and an array disk appeared between his fingers.
"All Jizhou clan members, hear my order: at all costs, kill Chen Yan!"
As his voice fell, low, gasping sounds came from within the array disk.
A self-deprecating smile appeared in the old man's eyes as he spoke:
"The Empress rules the world, my heart follows her. Loyalty unwavering, glorify our Sacred Ji!"
As his voice fell, low roars echoed from within the array disk.
"The Empress rules the world, my heart follows her. Loyalty unwavering, glorify our Sacred Ji!"
"The Empress rules the world, my heart follows her. Loyalty unwavering, glorify our Sacred Ji!"
Jizhou.
Inside a magnificent palace, Ji Zhu, wearing pitch-black battle armor, stood up slowly and waved one hand:
"Write a record of heroes for all Jizhou sleeper agents hidden in Xiaoyang, console their families, and allow one extra quota per year for their clans to enter the Sacred Ji Martial Temple!"
"Understood!"
Inside the great hall, people hurriedly bowed their heads.
Ji Zhu looked toward the direction of Great Xia; was it worth exposing all Jizhou sleeper agents just to kill one Chen Yan?
It was worth it!
However much the Xia Clan valued the other party, Jizhou should oppose them tenfold.
Outside Xiaoyang City.
Jiang Yuan frowned as he listened to the low roars coming from the communication array disk.
"So it's really coming, is it?"
He looked into Xiaoyang City, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"You're something else, over-fulfilling my performance quota for over a dozen years in one go."
Jiang Yuan shook his head; Chen Yan alone was actually going to draw out all the Jizhou spies buried in Xiaoyang.
This was value.
Jiang Yuan sighed with emotion; he wanted to know how many people would come to kill him if he were to be appointed as a general.
Jiang Yuan shook his head, feeling more uncomfortable the more he thought about it.
Xiaoyang City center.
Endless light spilled outward.
Chen Yan survived the seventh bolt of lightning tribulation, his body covered in blood, and his Undying Will erupted, beginning to make Chen Yan's physical body recover.
It was almost instantaneous.
Someone appeared in the center of the land beneath Chen Yan's feet.
This was a thirty-five-year-old man; his eyes were filled with despair, carrying a trace of unwillingness, and tears even fell from his eyes:
"The Empress rules the world, my heart turns toward her. Loyalty unwavering, shine for my Holy Lady!"
The moment he appeared, someone within the Military Martial Guard noticed him instantly.
"Kill!"
Tan Yishi rushed out like a streak of light, but one person was faster than him, transforming into a rolling, surging blood-light, arriving in an instant!
Blood Sword Saint.
With a boom, that person's body was instantly blasted apart.
But it was not blood mist, but black mist; dense, countless pitch-black mosquitoes burst out from within his shattered body, every single mosquito containing malice.
Terrifying malice!
"Damn it!" Blood Sword growled.
These malicious mosquitoes were clearly contagious; once they spread, it would be a catastrophe.
Fortunately, he was an Eighth Rank; he could contain them.
But it was also at this very instant.
High above the sky, streaks of light swept past, attacking toward Chen Yan.
"Kill!!!"
Jidao Wu roared, and behind him, Li Muyun, Yin Youming, and other General Stars charged out, their killing intent soaring to the heavens.
"We only kill Chen Yan; you are all geniuses, is it worth dying for a single Chen Yan?"
A Sixth Rank who had charged out shouted in a low voice:
"Go back!"
Just as he was shouting, Zong Heng had already attacked, throwing a punch that blasted that Sixth Rank away.
Tan Yishi struck in an instant, killing four Sixth Ranks horizontally by himself.
"Just a bunch of Sixth Ranks, acting as if I don't exist!"
Blood Sword Saint cursed in a low voice; he felt insulted.
He was an Eighth Rank, yet you dare to strike while an Eighth Rank is here?
But these malicious mosquitoes were not easy to handle.
Blood Sword Saint took a deep breath, actually inhaling all of these dense, pitch-black mosquitoes into his belly, and the next moment, he charged directly toward the horizon.
"Blood Sword, you are not invincible!"
A low voice rang out.
Above the firmament, a Heavenly Blade fell, slashing toward Blood Sword Saint.
This blade light was incomparably terrifying, its aura domineering to the extreme.
The people of the world watched, each of them opening their mouths wide; the one who struck was actually also an Eighth Rank.
Xiaoyang City, where did so many Eighth Ranks come from?
Thunder Strike Treasure Land!
It was attracted by the Thunder Strike Treasure Land.
"Mad Blade King, you dare to oppose the Xia Clan!" Blood Sword growled, instantly exploding into the high sky to battle the Mad Blade King; the void shattered, the momentum terrifying.
"I have no grudge against the Xia Clan, it's just that someone paid a high price for me to stop you!"
The Mad Blade King's voice rang out, carrying a smile:
"My loyalty to the Xia Clan can be witnessed by the sun and moon!"
"Witness your mother!"
Blood Sword Saint was furious, bombarding him repeatedly.
Jidao Wu and the other General Stars' expressions tightened; Blood Sword Saint had been intercepted.
This was going to be difficult.
Within the void, more Sixth Ranks walked out.
The number was high, over twenty.
There were even more Fifth Ranks, over a hundred!
In the past Xiaoyang City, where would so many Sixth Ranks and Fifth Ranks come from?
These were all here to kill Chen Yan.
There were Ji Clan spies, and there were those who had been bought off.
Tan Yishi instantly discerned the situation.
"Isn't it just about money? Help me kill the Ji Clan spies; for every Sixth Rank, I will offer one Sun-Level Precious Medicine!"
Tan Yishi roared, and the next moment, two more Sixth Ranks charged over.
"Deputy Commander Tan, why don't you tell us who the Ji Clan spies are." One person sneered:
"You're about to be dirt poor, and you're offering Sun-Level Precious Medicine?"
Tan Yishi gritted his teeth.
That's right, no one knew who the Ji Clan spies were; they were all mixed into the crowd anyway.
Boom!
In the sky, sword light flickered.
A General Star fell, and blood flowed from the high sky.
"General Stars are all treasures of the Xia Clan, stop charging, all of you go back!"
The Sixth-Order who killed the General Star let out a low shout:
"I have no intention of killing General Stars, all of you get back!
I only kill Chen Yan!"
Since when are General Stars treated like foot soldiers?
These General Stars will all be at least Sixth-Order martial artists in the future!
They are all treasures.
As his voice fell, dozens of General Stars charged over, some were Fourth-Order General Stars, and even more were Fifth-Order General Stars.
Each and every one of them had scarlet eyes.
"Kill!!!"
"Kill!!!"
"Kill!!!"
With the roar of Qi and blood, this Sixth-Order was instantly surrounded by the General Stars.
His strength was indeed formidable; with one sword strike, he severed the arm of a General Star.
But that General Star was even more ruthless, charging straight at him to bite, and with one mouthful, bit his ear off.
Rumble!!!
One General Star after another rushed forward in waves, charging directly; even if their combat power was inferior, their fighting spirit was explosive, and they feared neither life nor death.
Why are they called General Stars?
It is because they are forged through slaughter and battle.
If one General Star dies, thousands of General Stars will seek to kill.
The baleful aura is heaven-shaking!
"Immortal, can you bring about a new great era?!"
A General Star roared, forcibly hugging a Sixth-Order, his whole body radiating white light, intending to self-destruct.
He was questioning, he was roaring.
He possessed a sincere heart.
Therefore, even if he had to die, he would protect Chen Yan.
But he had a question to ask.
That is, whether what Chen Yan said before was true or not.
