Chapter 794: Situation of the Dou Qi World
After Liu Bian arrived and saw that the Chuyun Empire's royal family had already surrendered to the Han Empire, he did not make things difficult for them any further.
"An Ba, where is your commander Tai'a now?"
Inside the Chuyun Empire's Imperial Palace, Liu Bian sat upon the Dragon Throne and asked An Ba.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Commander is currently in Central Province."
Hearing Liu Bian's question, An Ba hurriedly replied respectfully.
"Central Province?"
"First, introduce the situation of this realm to Emperor and the various generals!"
Hearing that Tai'a was currently in Central Province, Liu Bian nodded, then said to An Ba.
"This general obeys the decree!"
After responding to Liu Bian, An Ba began introducing the situation of the Dou Qi World to Liu Bian, Bai Qi, and the others.
"Reporting to Your Majesty and the various generals, after ten years of infiltration by our Shadow Guard, we finally have a detailed understanding of the Dou Qi World."
"In the Dou Qi World, the most powerful are the Eight Ancient Clans; they are all former Dou Di families."
"Their clans possess powerful Dou Di bloodlines, so the strength of their clansmen is all very formidable."
"However, the Xiao Clan, one of the Eight Ancient Clans, declined three hundred years ago; now only seven of the ancient clans remain."
"Among these seven ancient clans, only the Soul Clan and the Gu Clan are the strongest."
"The Soul Clan's Clan Leader, Soul Heaven Emperor, and the Gu Clan's Clan Leader, Gu Yuan, have both reached the Dou Saint Nine Heavens in cultivation for many years."
Hearing An Ba's words, Lü Bu, who stood to the side, could not help but ask him:
"The Dou Saint you mentioned — what realm in Martial Dao does it correspond to?"
"Reporting to Lu General, this Dou Qi World primarily cultivates Dou Qi."
"Their Dou Di corresponds to the Martial Dao's Martial Emperor realm."
"And Dou Saint corresponds to the Martial Dao's Martial God Realm; Dou Zun corresponds to the Martial Dao's Martial Saint Realm; the rest follow in the same pattern."
Seeing Lü Bu ask about the Dou Qi realms, An Ba explained to everyone.
"Then by that reasoning, are there no experts at the Dou Di Realm in this Dou Qi World?"
After hearing An Ba's explanation, Lü Bu could not help but ask in confusion.
The Dou Qi World is a Lower Grade Immortal Martial World; logically speaking, the strongest should only be at the Human Immortal Realm.
Yet, according to what An Ba said, the strongest among the Eight Ancient Clans is only at Dou Saint Nine Heavens, which corresponds to the Martial Dao's Martial God Nine Heavens.
Such strength is somewhat unworthy of an Immortal Martial World's grade!
If the Dou Qi World truly only has this much strength, then for their Han Empire to take over the Dou Qi World will be a very simple matter.
Hearing Lü Bu's words, everyone turned their gazes toward An Ba at once; they too wanted to know the reason.
Feeling everyone's gazes, An Ba inwardly felt tremendous pressure.
"Reporting to Your Majesty and the various generals."
"According to the intelligence our Shadow Guard has secretly gathered, the Dou Qi Continent was originally very powerful."
"In the Dou Qi World of a thousand years ago, there were still many Dou Di."
"There were also quite a few experts above the Dou Di Realm."
"It's just that, for some unknown reason a thousand years ago, these experts above the Dou Di Realm suddenly vanished overnight."
"No one knows how they disappeared; all that is known is that from then on, no Dou Di Realm experts have ever been born again on the Dou Qi Continent!"
An Ba reported the intelligence received by the Shadow Guard to Liu Bian and the others.
"This is rather strange; it seems something must have happened to the Dou Qi World!"
After hearing An Ba's words, Huo Qubing said softly to everyone.
As Huo Qubing's words fell, everyone turned their gazes toward Liu Bian.
"Emperor is also not very clear on this matter."
"However, when such a situation occurs, there are only two possibilities."
"The first possibility is that the Dou Qi World is now on the decline; the world itself can no longer support the survival of experts above the Dou Di Realm!"
"The second possibility is that something happened in the Dou Qi World, forcing these experts above the Dou Di Realm to leave the Dou Qi World."
"However, the Dou Qi World having no experts at the Dou Di Realm or above is actually a good thing for us."
"Next, we will speed up; first, let's take the entire Dou Qi World."
"Once we have taken the Dou Qi World, no matter what变故 has occurred there, we will be able to deal with it."
Feeling everyone's gazes, Liu Bian explained to them with a solemn expression.
"By the way, have any of you felt the Dou Qi World suppressing your realms?"
Thinking that Bai Qi and the others had now reached the Martial God Nine Heavens in cultivation, Liu Bian asked them.
Hearing Liu Bian's words, the few men hurriedly sensed their surroundings and found that the situation Liu Bian mentioned had not occurred.
"Your Majesty, this general has not felt the situation you described; the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy here is far too thin, otherwise this general could attempt to break through to the Martial Emperor realm."
After opening his eyes, Bai Qi said respectfully to Liu Bian.
The others also nodded to Liu Bian, indicating that they had not sensed it either.
Seeing this, Liu Bian also breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it has no effect on everyone, that is good; otherwise, it would not be a good thing for him.
"This is good then; since that is the case, there is no rush to break through. Most of the Heaven and Earth in this realm is Dou Qi; Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy is very scarce."
"Although the cultivation techniques you practice can also absorb this Dou Qi, the effect is not as fast as directly absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy."
"You three, lead your respective Army Corps and first take the entire northwestern region."
"When the time comes, Emperor will provide the Spirit Stones needed for breakthrough, to help you break through to the Martial Emperor realm."
Liu Bian said to Bai Qi and the others with a smile on his face.
"This general obeys the decree. This general will not disappoint Your Majesty!"
Hearing Liu Bian's words, the three men were instantly thrilled and bowed to Liu Bian.
Seeing that the several Tributes of the Tribute Dian were also full of anticipation, Liu Bian said to them as well:
"When the time comes, there will be a share for you too. For now, let's first take the entire Northwest Region!"
Hearing this, everyone was满脸激动 and bowed in thanks to Liu Bian.
"Your subjects thank Your Majesty! We shall not fail the trust Your Majesty has placed in us!"
Seeing this, Liu Bian nodded in satisfaction.
……
And just as Liu Bian's Spatial Clone was leading everyone across the Realm, Liu Bian's True Body also received the System Quest notification chime.
"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully triggering a System Quest: Conquer the Lower Grade Immortal Martial World, Dou Qi World."
"Quest Reward: Reward the Host with 500 million National Fortune Value, one Middle Grade Immortal Martial World Space Gate, one All-Cultivation Enhancement Card, and five Lower Grade Immortal Veins."
"Worthy of the Immortal Martial World — the rewards are all good stuff!"
Seeing the quest rewards, Liu Bian nodded in satisfaction.
