Chapter 1025

In the Liuli Pure Land, behind the imperial city's gate, Jia Ye and his royal uncle Han Chan are locked in a bitter stalemate.

Translate: "Glazed Pure Land, rear gate of the imperial city, Jia Ye and his royal uncle Han Chan were locked in a bitter stalemate."

Check: "his royal uncle Han Chan" means "his royal uncle Han Chan". So "Jia Ye and his royal uncle Han Chan". Good.

The Buddhist Dharma of the Liuli Buddha Nation is extremely lethal against demons, but when used to fight each other it becomes overly bland and boring.

Both of them sit cross‑legged in midair, with a vast expanse of azure Liuli Buddha light pouring out behind them, like two huge Liuli crystals colliding, continuously emitting a clear, pleasant ringing sound.

Translate: "Both were seated cross-legged in the air, with vast sheets of azure Glazed Buddha light surging behind them, like two huge Glazed crystals colliding, continuously emitting a clear, pleasant ringing sound."

Occasionally a burst of light erupts, a sheet of Liuli Buddha light shatters, and either Jia Ye or Han Chan's body jerks, causing blood to spray from the corners of their mouths.

Translate: "Occasionally, light would burst and a sheet of Glazed Buddha light would shatter, causing Jia Ye or Han Chan to shudder, with blood spraying from the corners of their mouths."

After a prolonged stalemate, Jia Ye gradually fell into a disadvantage.

Just as Jia Ye seemed about to collapse, an immensely burly and obese figure silently appeared behind Han Chan. With a loud shout, a nine‑toothed rake struck before the cry could finish, solidly hitting Han Chan's forehead.

Translate: "Just as Jia Ye seemed about to collapse, an immensely burly and obese figure silently appeared behind Han Chan. Accompanied by a loud shout, a nine-toothed rake struck Han Chan's forehead solidly before the exclamation could even be uttered."

A thunderclap exploded, and countless bolts of lightning surged along the nine teeth of the rake into Han Chan's skull.

Translate: "A thunderclap exploded, and countless bolts of lightning surged along the rake's teeth into Han Chan's skull."

On Han Chan's bald scalp, the large crimson 'slave' character violently throbbed for a moment, then the entire patch of flesh was burned to ash, revealing the pale cyan transparent skull beneath.

Translate: "On Han Chan's bald scalp, the large blood-red 'Slave' character throbbed violently for a moment, then the entire patch of flesh was burned to ash, revealing the pale cyan transparent skull beneath."

That 'slave' character was clearly branded by a powerful divine being using a secret method; although Han Chan's scalp flesh was burned clean, the crimson 'slave' mark was directly etched onto his skull, and through the transparent bone one can see the bloody characters deeply imprinted in his brain.

Translate: "That 'Slave' mark was clearly branded by a powerful divine-ability user using a secret method; although Han Chan's scalp flesh had been burned clean, the blood-red 'Slave' was etched directly onto his skull, and even through the transparent bone one could see the crimson characters deeply imprinted in his brain!"

"Heh, you really are, wholeheartedly wanting to become a slave." Jia Ye looked at Han Chan with a bitter expression: "You've even sold yourself out completely."

Translate: "\"Hehe, you really are, wholeheartedly wanting to become a slave. \" Jia Ye looked at Han Chan with a bitter expression: \"You've even sold yourself outright...... \""

Han Chan clutched his crackling, electricity‑filled head, roared a few times at Jia Ye, then rolled his eyes and fainted.

Translate: "Han Chan clutched his crackling‑electric head, roared a few times at Jia Ye, then rolled his eyes and fainted."

After all, he is only at the half‑step venerable level; how could he withstand the attack of the ancient monster Zhu Ganglie?

Translate: "After all, he was only at the half‑step Venerable level—how could he withstand the attack of Zhu Ganglie, that ancient monster?"

Moreover, Zhu Ganglie's shameless sneak attack from behind is despicable.

Translate: "Moreover, Zhu Ganglie's sneak attack from behind was utterly shameless!"

It's utterly shameless.

Translate: "It was simply too thick‑skinned."

Having captured Han Chan alive, Zhu Ganglie, mighty and high‑spirited, hoisted the mangled original form of a demon sovereign he had plowed apart, and strode into Wu Tie's sword formation on a gust of wind.

Translate: "Having captured Han Chan alive, Zhu Ganglie strutted forward, head held high, dragging the mangled true form of a Demon Venerable he had plowed to pieces, and strode into Wu Tie's sword formation on a gust of wind."

"Your Majesty, Old Pig has come to help you... hehe, in our past life we were master and disciple, this life we still team up against the enemy." Zhu Ganglie laughed "hahaha", raising the huge white serpent carcass in his hand high above the trapped demon sovereigns.

Translate: "\"Your Majesty, Old Pig has come to help you… hehe, in our past life we were sworn brothers, and this life we still join forces against the enemy. \" Zhu Ganglie burst into hysterical \"haha\" laughter, raising the huge white serpent carcass in his hands high above the trapped Demon Venerables."

Translate: "\"You brats, look—your father is right here… your grandfather personally slew him; aren't you afraid? If you are, hurry up and kneel to surrender! \"

A sharp, piercing howl echoed from afar, and several Wu Tie brought Liuli Pure Land demon sovereigns and ghost sovereigns who had slain their opponents, rushing with their corpses toward the sword formation.

Translate: "Sharp howls echoed from afar, and several more of Wu Tie's men brought the slain corpses of Glazed Pure Land's Demon Venerables and Ghost Venerables, rushing toward the sword formation."

Inside the sword formation, the pressure on the demon sovereigns mounted, and they involuntarily let out long, mournful howls, calling upon surrounding demons to come to their aid.

Several hundred thousand divine spirits that descended upon the Mu Continent were divided into four waves, and under the supervision of Wu Tou, they blocked the endless tide of demon hordes coming from the east, south, west, and north.

Translate: "Several hundred thousand Divine Spirits that had descended upon Mu Dalu were divided into four waves; under Wu Tou's supervision, they blocked the endless tide of demon hordes coming from the four cardinal directions."

The divine spirits fervently invoked the empowerment of divine artifacts, boosting their immediate combat power to a level comparable to that of a newly entered venerable. Moreover, the leaders of powerful clans such as Mist, Phantom Mist, Holy Warrior, Void Deep, and Deep Slander personally joined the battle, their divine arts far surpassing those of ordinary folk.

Moreover, the leaders of powerful clans such as Mist, Phantom, Holy Guard, Void Gloom, and Dark Slander personally joined the battle, their divine arts and techniques far surpassing those of ordinary clansmen."

If one says these descended divine clans are the nation's genuine elite, then these demon hordes are nothing more than a ragtag troupe, a motley crowd.

Translate: "If those descended divine clans are the nation's true elite, then these demon hordes…… are merely a ragtag mob of amateurs."

Lacking coordination, talent, and divine abilities, they rely solely on brute strength, wildly scratching and biting... Even those god‑realm giant demons employ crude tactics.

Translate: "Lacking coordination, talent, and divine abilities, they know only to rely on their sturdy bodies to scratch and bite wildly…… Even those Divine Sovereign‑level giant demons have crude fighting methods."

Furthermore, the Light Divine Clan also possesses the Light Vessel, a tremendous weapon of war.

Blazing white light swept across the void, piercing the vital points of countless demon hordes from all directions, and the Light Vessel slew them on the spot.

Translate: "Blazing white light swept across the void; countless demon hordes from all directions had their vital points pierced by the divine light and were slain on the spot by the Light Vessel."

The demon hordes could not approach the imperial city even a half step; tens of thousands of miles away they were utterly slaughtered. No matter how dozens of panicked demon sovereigns urged them, not a single demon clan could come to reinforce.

Translate: "The demon hordes could not approach within half a step of the imperial city; tens of thousands of li away they were utterly slaughtered. No matter how dozens of panicked Demon Venerables urged them on, not a single demon clan could come to reinforce."

The Black Dragon Sovereign, whose body had been shattered into dozens of segments, still retained some vitality. He hoarsely howled: "Brothers, give it your all... we... can only give it our all!"

Translate: "The Black Dragon Venerable, whose body had been smashed into a dozen segments, still retained some vitality. He howled hoarsely: \"Brothers, give it your all…… we…… can only give it our all! \"

Translate: "In the Black Dragon Venerable's howl lay an endless sense of sorrow."

How long has it been since the Heaven‑covering Demon Alliance just seized the Liuli Buddha Nation? How long have they indulged in blood food, and enjoyed the nation's fine wine, cuisine, attire, and beauties?

Translate: "How long ago did the Heaven‑Covering Demon Alliance just seize the Glazed Buddha Kingdom? How long have they been indulging in blood food, enjoying the kingdom's fine wines, delicacies, garments, and beauties?"

Translate: "\"I…… am not resigned! \" The Heaven‑Swallowing Venerable, who had just been severely wounded, appeared from nowhere; his mouth grew a new set of fangs, but it was obvious that these freshly grown fangs lacked the former luster."

Translate: "\"Give it your all, give it your all…… even if I die, this old ancestor of mine will gnaw off a few more heads. \" The Heaven‑Swallowing Venerable roared and bellowed, his huge mouth frantically tearing at the void, shaking the great formation violently."

The next moment, a low, terrifying roar of a demon beast echoed.

Translate: "The next moment, a low, terrifying demon beast roar came."

The Demon Supreme entered the sword formation dragging the corpses of three other demon sovereigns; behind him, the beast‑path incarnation among his six avatars howled loudly, lunging at the Heaven‑Swallowing Sovereign like a mad dog.

Translate: "The Supreme Devil, carrying the corpses of three other Demon Venerables, charged into the sword formation; the beast‑path avatar among his six emanations roared loudly, lunging at the Heaven‑Swallowing Venerable like a mad dog."

Translate: "Wu Tie sat cross‑legged in midair; another two sword‑lights swept across, cleaving the Demon Venerable transformed from a blood‑marked black fish in half at the torso, and he nodded satisfied."

Translate: "\"Here, it's secure…… these Demon Venerables aren't hard to deal with…… but what about Xiahou Wuming's side? I don't know how it's going…… Hmm, just where did that so‑called Heavenly Court come from? \""

Wu Tie hesitated a little, pondered for a moment, then pointed at the sword formation.

Translate: "Wu Tie hesitated a little, pondered for a moment, then pointed at the sword formation."

A surge of azure divine light shot up into the sky, a few flashes vanishing at the eastern horizon.

A colossal spatial gate on the east side of the Liuli Pure Land slowly opened; after Canghai Daoist cast several hand seals, the azure divine light streamed directly into the gate.

While Wu Tie was worrying about Xiahou Wuming's battle situation, Xiahou Wuming's forces had already launched an active assault on the remnants of the Demon‑Suppressing Bureau.

Translate: "While Wu Tie was worrying about Xiahou Wuming's battle situation, Xiahou Wuming's forces had already launched an active assault on the remaining troops of the Demon‑Suppressing Office."

Xiahou Wuming brought a flagship, over a thousand warships; on those thousand‑plus warships there were no more than 300,000 human troops of the Heavenly Martial Army, and nearly 500,000 Five Elements spirits, chiefly wood spirits.

Translate: "Xiahou Wuming brought a flagship, over a thousand warships; on those thousand-plus warships there were no more than three hundred thousand Heavenly Martial Army human soldiers, and the Five Elements Spirits—mainly Wood Essence—numbered nearly five hundred thousand."

Upon receiving the distress signal from Stealth Seven Slay, venerable experts urgently brought a small elite force to strike, bringing tens of thousands of divine‑realm masters.

Translate: "Upon receiving the distress signal from Dao Qisha, the Venerable‑level experts who hurriedly brought a small elite force to reinforce brought tens of thousands of Divine Sovereign‑level masters."

Now Xiahou Wuming leads the charge at the forefront. Behind him follow about a hundred venerable strongmen of the Martial State, two thousand or so half‑step venerables forming a battle array, closely followed by tens of thousands of elite divine‑realm commanders who direct the thirty thousand Heavenly Martial troops in a coordinated assault.

The Five Elements spirits pilot the warships, launching assaults while densely firing light cannons and arrows.

Translate: "The Five Elements Spirits pilot the warships, launching assaults on one side while densely firing light cannons and arrows on the other."

The giant god‑soldiers behave like a swarm of agile hornets, darting in groups of three to five through the air, skirmishing on the flanks of the Heavenly Martial Army's formation like rangers.

Translate: "The Giant Divine Soldiers, like a swarm of agile hornets, dart in groups of three or five through the air at high speed, skirmishing and supporting the flanks of the Heavenly Martial Army's neat battle formations like rangers."

Yet within the seemingly chaotic formation of the giant god‑soldiers lies a profound mystery: at every instant, each of them can face the enemy head‑on.

Translate: "Yet within the Giant Divine Soldiers' seemingly chaotic formation lies a profound mystery: at every instant, all of them can face the enemy head‑on."

Thus, every ten breaths, these giant god‑soldiers can concentrate fire and unleash a volley.

Translate: "Thus, every ten breaths, these Giant Divine Soldiers can concentrate fire and unleash a volley."

The scorching red light emitted from their eyes can always gather at one or several attack points, easily detonating the heavily armored, most potent commanders ahead.

Translate: "The scorching red light they spray from their eyes can always gather at one or several attack points, easily detonating the heavily armored, most potent enemy commanders ahead."

Each commander of the Demon‑Suppressing Bureau, targeted by concentrated fire from the giant god‑soldiers, had their skulls pierced before they could even approach the Heavenly Martial formation—nearly a hundred commanders fell from the sky, their bodies crackling with lightning.

Translate: "One by one, commanders of the Demon‑Suppressing Office were hit by concentrated fire from the Giant Divine Soldiers; even before they could approach the Heavenly Martial Army's formation, nearly a hundred had their skulls pierced, their bodies crackling with lightning as they plummeted from the sky."

Whenever this happens, Ji Ming and his comrades shout loudly; immediately, armored soldiers drop from the air, hoist the bodies of the slain commanders, and run backward.

Translate: "Whenever this happened, Ji Ming and his ilk would let out a loud shout; immediately, armored soldiers would drop from the air, seize the bodies of those slain commanders, and drag them away."

Soon, the formation personally led by Xiahou Wuming collided with the remaining forces of the Demon‑Suppressing Bureau.

Translate: "Soon, the battle formation personally led by Xiahou Wuming collided with the remaining forces of the Demon‑Suppressing Office."

With a resonant 'hum', before Xiahou Wuming the void condensed tens of thousands of silver swords, each several zhang long, forged from Geng‑metal qi; the blades formed a sword wheel that swept forward fiercely, instantly filling the sky with flashing sword light—this single strike tore apart the bodies of a million armored soldiers.

Translate: "With a resonant 'hum', before Xiahou Wuming in the void, Geng‑metal qi condensed into tens of thousands of silver longswords several zhang long; each blade formed a sword wheel that swept forward fiercely, instantly filling the sky with flashing sword light—this single strike tore apart the bodies of a million armored soldiers."

Blood and electric sparks sprayed across the sky; Xiahou Wuming's strike found its mark, and behind him, Li Yi, the elder ancestor of the Jiangmen Li clan, gave a light chuckle.

Translate: "Bloodwater mixed with electric sparks sprayed everywhere; Xiahou Wuming's strike succeeded, and behind him Li Yi, the elder ancestor of the Li Clan of the General's Gate, gave a light chuckle."

The Jiangmen Li clan is famed for archery; each generation's greatest archer is called 'Li Guang', a name from ancient myth belonging to a legendary archer of unparalleled skill.

Translate: "The Li Clan of the General's Gate is famed for archery; each generation's strongest patriarch bears the name 'Li Guang', that of a legendary archer from ancient mythic times."

Li Yi could become one of the first elders of the Jiangmen Li clan to ascend to venerable rank—one can imagine how superb his archery is.

Translate: "Li Yi could become one of the first elders of the Li Clan of the General's Gate to ascend to the Venerable level—needless to say, his archery is formidable."

Earlier, those giant god‑soldiers had repeatedly focused fire to pick off enemy commanders, but Li Yi disdained to act, feeling it beneath him to compete for credit with those iron lumps.

Translate: "Earlier, when those Giant Divine Soldiers repeatedly focused fire to pick off enemy commanders in their formations, Li Yi disdained to act; he simply couldn't be bothered to compete with those iron lumps for credit."

But upon seeing Xiahou Wuming act—launching a strike that ignored status and slew a million foes—Li Yi's hands itched, and he immediately drew his bow and loosed an arrow.

Translate: "But seeing Xiahou Wuming strike down a million enemies with a single blow, disregarding status, Li Yi's hands itched; he immediately drew his bow and loosed an arrow."

The bow is a cyan longbow formed from a wisp of flowing wind.

The arrow was a dragon-shaped stone arrow forged by forcibly drawing power from a deep underground earth vein.

The wind howled, dragon arrows surged, a dragon-shaped yellow qi shot out hundreds of li, then violently exploded at the core of the Demon-Eradicating Bureau's army.

Nearly a million yellow stone arrows exploded, piercing enemies near and far.

Li Yi's single strike caused casualties not much fewer than Xiahou Wuming's.

Seeing this, the hundred-odd Venerable-level experts behind Xiahou Wuming did not hesitate, each unleashing their own divine abilities and secret techniques toward the swarming enemy.

One strike tens of thousands, one strike tens of thousands...

Like Xiang Feixie and his close-combat killing divine ability, they are not good at area damage, but each sword light and sword shadow stretching thousands of miles slashing down can at least kill over a thousand Demon-purging Office troops.

Facing Xiahou Wuming's frenzied attack, Ji Ming and the others were completely dazed.

The magical power fluctuations on Ji Ming and the other Demon-purging Office commanders' bodies were actually almost able to contend with Xiahou Wuming and those Venerable-level experts. But they were completely dazed, staring blankly as the sky-filling attacks rained down, allowing those attacks to slaughter large swaths of the troops behind them.

Moreover, light cannons and arrows came howling; Ji Ming and the others stood blankly in midair, scorched all over by the light cannon blasts, then pierced through by volley after volley of arrows.

In just a quarter of an hour, the remaining nearly thirty million Demon-purging Office troops were completely wiped out.

Ji Ming and the others were also caught in Dao Qisha and Xiang Feixie's frenzied slaughter, being cut down into a bloody mist that drifted across the sky.

Over a million Giant Divine Soldiers searched back and forth in the air, their eyes emitting a net-like red light that swept the ground strand by strand, strictly guarding against any enemy soldiers hiding or fleeing.

Xiahou Wuming and his party returned to the flagship, glanced at each other, and began to summarize the previous battle.

Or rather, it was not a battle but a slaughter in which Wuguo's soldiers relied on weapons, equipment, and the formidable cultivation of high-ranking officers.

Arrogant, overbearing, rampant and domineering members of the Heavenly Court came with overwhelming force; their displayed aura was strong, and regardless of numbers, equipment, stature, or aura, they were top-notch elite forces that Xiahou Wuming secretly regarded as formidable opponents to be dealt with cautiously.

But once they clashed… the feeling was off.

Even Ji Ting, the strongest among them who had nearly beaten Xiang Feixie to death with a single punch, was successfully assassinated by Dao Qisha.

Xiahou Wuming spread his hands and gave a wry smile to the assembled civil and military officials of Wuguo who had participated in the battle, saying: "I, the commander, can't make sense of it—what kind of enemy is this…… coming with such ferocity, yet losing so swiftly?"

Xiahou Wuming gave a wry smile and said: "To be honest, I, the commander, was genuinely startled just now, and I was worried we would suffer a defeat."

Near and far, dozens of spatial gates slowly opened above city after city, warships continuously slid out, and Venerable-level auras shot up into the sky.

Wuguo's reinforcements have arrived.

Moreover, they brought over three hundred Venerable-level masters, each commanding a small fleet of a hundred standard warships, so that the number of standard warships gathered around Xiahou Wuming exceeded thirty thousand, and the numbers of the Heavenly Martial Army, Five Elements Spirits, and Giant Divine Soldiers also broke through ten million.

Hmm, things are a bit suspicious; the enemy has already been wiped out by us, so…… The nearest reinforcement fleet is still about a thousand li away, the farthest is tens of thousands of li away, and they are rushing at full speed toward Xiahou Wuming's side with all their might.

Xiahou Wuming's eyes flashed with divine light as he gazed at the near and far reinforcement fleets, about to order them to return and continue the extermination of the demon tribe.

Low rumbles of thunder rose from the masses of floating clouds, accompanied by low shouts, and heavy footsteps came from deep within the clouds.

Ji Ting, who had just been killed by a single strike from Dao Qisha, now had plasma surging all over his body, his eyes spewing forth ten-thousand-zhang lightning, and he strode out from deep within the clouds.

On him, not a single wound could be seen, and his aura was even stronger than before by a third.

Behind Ji Ting were Ji Chan, Ji Ming, and others similarly surrounded by surging lightning, and behind them stood rows of thousands, rows of thousands of heavily armored soldiers marching forward in perfect formation.

Everyone was unharmed, everyone's aura was formidable, and everyone had returned to peak condition.

Xiahou Wuming stared blankly, then roared: "All unit leaders, spare no mana, bring your fleets and join with me, the commander…… give it your all, annihilate!"

With a great shout, the Wuguo army formation launched another charge at Ji Ting and the others.

This time, Xiahou Wuming and his comrades were again at the forefront of the charge, of course faster than them were the fleet's light cannons, the Giant Divine Soldiers' Chaos Fire Ballistae, and concentrated volley fire.

This time, the earth-shaking sounds of slaughter lasted a full one and a half hours.

Leveraging the absolute advantage of the warships' armaments, Xiahou Wuming and his comrades once again slaughtered Ji Ting's great army to nothing.

But after just a few breaths, Ji Ting and the others emerged unscathed from the depths of the clouds, once again leading their great army.

"The dignity of the Heavenly Court brooks no offense." Ji Ting's hoarse roar echoed through the heavens.

"This Seat judges you guilty, your sins unpardonable; each of you ought to have your souls refined by heavenly lightning, enduring countless agonies before death."
