Chapter 792: The Great War Begins

"I, the poor Daoist, will go to Sanshan Pass."

Lv Yue was the first to state his position, his voice filled with hatred: "Back when the Three Pure Ones had not yet separated, we all resided upon Kunlun. This Yuding Zhenren repeatedly sought trouble with me and even looked down upon the Plague Gu Technique I cultivate. This time, it is the perfect opportunity for me to cross swords with him."

Zhao Gongming said: "Then I, the poor Daoist, shall go to the Northern Territory."

Yin Qi nodded and said: "Very well, then I shall escort you two to Sanshan Pass and the Northern Territory. By the way, the Great King expresses his deep gratitude for your assistance, and has already prepared one million Immortal Crystals for you both."

"Register an account with the Human Race Bank, and inform me later; I will notify the bank to transfer the funds."

"One million Immortal Crystals is not a large sum, but I hope you two will not find it lacking."

"The Human Emperor is too polite."

The smiles on the faces of Zhao Gongming and Lv Yue grew even broader.

One million Immortal Crystals was not a small amount, even for them.

They had originally come to help out for the sake of Shen Gongbao and had not expected any reward; these one million Immortal Crystals were a completely unexpected joy, and also a sign of the Human Emperor's high regard for them.

Those who cultivate the Dao are mostly poor.

They had been using Mobile Phones for some time and had long been quite interested in many items in the Human Race Mall; now they had money to squander.

For example, various Pills and Dharma Treasures.

They were not solitary individuals; they all had a large number of followers and disciples.

Previously, when they needed Pills or Dharma Treasures, they had to entrust other fellow disciples to refine them. Not only did they have to provide the materials, but they also owed others favors; it was truly not as good as purchasing them in the Human Race Mall.

Through the Teleportation Array, Yin Qi sent Lv Yue and Zhao Gongming to Sanshan Pass and the Northern Territory respectively, while simultaneously reinforcing the city gates.

When Yin Qi returned to Sishui Pass, the Xiqi army had once again arrived at the city walls.

Woo! Woo! Woo!

The desolate sound of horns echoed between Heaven and Earth.

Banners fluttered, and warhorses neighed.

Compared to last time, Jiang Ziya had mobilized his entire army this time; four million troops pressed upon the border, fully demonstrating his conviction of certain victory.

Standing on the city wall, he gazed into the distance at the command platform above the Xiqi army.

Besides Jiang Ziya and Taiyi Zhenren, there was also a middle-aged man wearing Daoist robes; although it was Guangchengzi, he had the appearance of Yunzhongzi, clearly intended to deceive him.

In this battle, Jiang Ziya was sworn to behead him.

If Guangchengzi had appeared from the very beginning, would that not have scared him away?

Even if he had not known of Jiang Ziya's conspiracy in advance, the transformed Guangchengzi could not deceive him; after all, Guangchengzi was only at the Golden Immortal Initial Stage, while he was at the Great Luo peak.

A mere Heaven-Stellar Transformation Technique could not deceive his Po Wang Eye.

Besides Guangchengzi, there were an additional hundred Mysterious Immortals in the Xiqi army, along with the followers and disciples brought by these hundred Mysterious Immortals; the number of Heavenly Immortals and Earth Immortals reached as many as five thousand, almost the entire sect mobilized.

It was no wonder Jiang Ziya had the conviction of certain victory, with four million troops pressing forward.

In the void, dozens of Loose Immortals were live-streaming the adventure.

"The war has started, it has started, it has finally started again."

"The four million-strong Xiqi army is pressing forward; they must have the certainty of victory."

"That is Yunzhongzi. Hiss, this is a Peak Golden Immortal; with him and Taiyi Zhenren joining forces, Yang Shen is in danger now."

"Sigh, although Great Shang is formidable, it is ultimately no match for Xiqi. Who told Xiqi to have the Chan Sect standing behind them? If it weren't for the Saints disdaining to take action, they could have wiped Great Shang off the map directly."

Across the Honghuang, countless people were paying attention to this place.

As for the northern and southern armies of Xiqi, they had not yet reached the front line.

Zhunti Daoren, Jieyin Daoren, and Tongtian Jiaozhu, these three Saints were also watching the live stream; more than half of the disciples of the Jie Sect and the Western Sect were also watching, as the subordinates followed the example of their superiors.

As for Yuanshi Tianzun, Laozi, and Nuwa, they might or might not know about Mobile Phones, or perhaps they simply did not care, and thus did not notice this place.

In front of Sishui Pass, the open space was too small; the four million troops could not be deployed at all.

In reality, the majority of the army was hovering in the void.

With the help of standard-issue spiritual armor, they could fly.

On the command platform.

Jiang Ziya stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at Sishui Pass: "Yang Shen, come out and speak." Yin Qi said coldly: "Traitor, what do you have to say?"

Jiang Ziya's eyes grew secretly cold, and he said loudly: "Great Shang is without the Dao; Wen Ding used a trumped-up charge to lure and kill Ji Li. Today, I lead my army here solely to avenge the grudge of that year."

"If you are sensible and surrender the city now, I can still spare your life."

"If not, I shall surely turn you into flying ash."

Yin Qi sneered: "Wen Ding luring and killing Ji Li was indeed a fault, but Di Yi already married his own sister to Ji Chang, which can be considered a father making amends for his mistake. Furthermore, the current Human Emperor is Di Qi. If you want revenge, you should go to the Underworld."

Jiang Ziya said: "A grudge of ten generations can still be avenged."

Yin Qi waved his hand and said: "Stop with these high-sounding excuses. Who in the Honghuang does not know now that your Xiqi are all a bunch of sinister, vicious, and treacherous villains?"

"Talking about revenge is nothing more than relying on the support of the Chan Sect to overthrow the rule of the Great Shang Celestial Dynasty."

"Since that is the case, then whatever means you have, just use them."

Jiang Ziya's expression changed.

He thought of how he was currently being cursed by countless people on the internet, having become the representative villain of the contemporary Honghuang, with his ugly reputation spreading far and wide; he feared he would never be able to clear his name in this lifetime.

Please... you... bookmark 6... 9... shu.... com....!

Jiang Ziya's eyes were filled with killing intent as he turned to look at Guangchengzi: "Senior Brother, please take action."

Guangchengzi nodded and said to Yin Qi: "Yang Shen, let us go to the high heavens to fight."

After speaking, he soared into the sky.

The battle of "Golden Immortals" causes too much damage to the earth.

Unless necessary, Golden Immortals generally battle high above in the sky to avoid affecting the continent and causing wanton Karma.

This thing called Karma truly exists in Honghuang.

Being entangled by Karma will not only slow down cultivation speed but can even form a Heart Demon.

"Haha, why would I fear you?"

Yin Qi soared into the sky and simultaneously made a move to sweep Taiyi Zhenren up to the high sky as well: "Even with Taiyi Zhenren added, what is there for my Yang God to fear?"

Taiyi Zhenren's expression changed, both shocked and furious.

He was shocked by Yin Qi's strength, as he had been forcibly swept up to the high sky without any power to resist.

He was furious because he was looked down upon by Yin Qi, who did not put him in his eyes at all.

Swish! Swish!

Countless people looked up, casting their gazes toward the high sky.

Jiang Ziya did not order an attack on the city either, because attacking the city would require paying a great price; it would be better to wait until the Yang God was slain and have Guangchengzi and Taiyi Zhenren destroy the Array Formation of Sishui Pass.

In this way, taking Sishui Pass would be easy.

……

"What great courage!"

Watching the live broadcast, Tongtian Jiaozhu could not help but praise.

Zhunti Daoren chuckled: "Although Yunzhongzi is formidable, joining forces with Taiyi Zhenren, I fear they are still no match for the Yang God."

Separated by the screen, they truly did not see through Guangchengzi's disguise.

Back when the "Yang God" captured Jin Ning alive, Jin Ning had utilized Nuwa's Map of Mountains and Rivers, from which one can see Yin Qi's prowess.

Although Yunzhongzi and Taiyi Zhenren are decent, they are not the match of Jin Ning, who held the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

……

Everyone stared fixedly at the high sky.

Yin Qi knew Guangchengzi's background; although he wished to use this opportunity to fake his death and shed his skin like a cicada, he would not "die" in vain—at the very least, he had to severely wound Guangchengzi and fight to the death with Taiyi Zhenren.

Only then, when Yuanshi Tianzun is hurt, will he deal more ruthlessly with the Jie Sect.

And when Yuanshi Tianzun deals more ruthlessly, it will certainly stimulate Tongtian Jiaozhu, causing Tongtian Jiaozhu to wake up in time and actively prepare for battle.

Thinking of this, Yin Qi took out the Universe Bow and the Sun-Shooting Arrow.

The Zhentian Bow, also known as the Xuanyuan Bow, is an Extreme Post-Heaven Spirit Treasure; Xuanyuan once used it to shoot and kill Chiyou.

Chiyou back then was a Great Witch, equivalent to a Great Luo.

The Sun-Shooting Arrow, a Superior Innate Spiritual Treasure, was once used to shoot and kill nine Golden Crows, and it possesses a fearsome reputation. (End of chapter)
