Chapter 937: The Martial Hall in Action

This day.

Chaoge, Martial Hall headquarters.

Fifty Golden Immortal-level Warships, five hundred Mysterious Immortal Class Warships, and fifty thousand Heavenly Immortal Realm and Earth Immortal Class Warships rose into the air one after another, casting vast shadows over Zhaoge and obscuring the sky.

Subsequently, these warships split into five groups and soon disappeared into the horizon.

Such a massive operation alarmed Chaoge, and countless people discussed it fervently.

Shortly thereafter, the Imperial Court issued a proclamation:

The Shushan Sword Sect, Blood Demon Sect, Ten Thousand Demon Palace, Qiankun Sect, and Haotian Sect have disobeyed the Imperial Court's prohibitions, causing tens of millions of commoners to die unjustly during their mutual conflicts; their crimes are unforgivable. The Great King specially orders the Martial Hall to eradicate them, leaving not even a chicken or dog behind.

Such a proclamation instantly ignited the Primordial Continent:

"Dao Ancestor above, is Di Qi really this unyielding? He says he'll wipe out a sect, and he just does it!?"

"Tsk tsk, fifty Golden Immortal-level Warships; on average, each sect has to face ten, and that's not even counting the Golden Immortals dispatched by the Martial Hall. What do these five great sects have to resist with?"

"How does Di Qi dare? Is he not afraid that the Sect Masters will personally take action and destroy his Yin Shang?"

"Hehe, there's a good show to watch."

"The five great sects are heinous; killing them all is a clean sweep. Long live the Great King."

"Di Qi is making the whole world his enemy here. Is he truly arrogant and conceited, or does he really have some trump card?"

Outer Starry Sky.

Heavenly Demon Continent.

Demon Court.

Lu Ya laughed heartily, unable to hide his delight: "Hahaha, good, very good. It is truly said that one can survive the disasters sent by Heaven, but one cannot survive the disasters one brings upon oneself. This Di Qi is too arrogant; he actually dares to make the whole world his enemy."

Jimeng also laughed loudly: "It's good that it's chaotic, very good. If he can truly kill Di Qi and destroy the Yin Shang, then the Human Race will once again fall into fragmentation, and there will be one less stumbling block for our return to the Primordial Continent."

Bai Ze said with a smile: "Indeed, the more chaotic the Primordial Continent is, the better; only then will we have enough energy to attack the Demon World. We have already conquered more than half of the Purple Moon Demon Realm, and I believe that in a few years, we will be able to conquer it completely.

By then, the Heavenly Emperor will be able to refine the Demon Realm Origin and ascend to Quasi-Saint.

If our Demon Court can produce ten Quasi-Saints, we will not fear Haotian, nor the various Saints and sects."

Lu Ya was also invigorated: "If I achieve Quasi-Saint, I can immediately head to the Sun Star and retrieve my uncle's Donghuang Bell. At that time, what is there to fear from Haotian?"

Everyone present was filled with longing.

The true bodies of the Saints cannot step foot on the Primordial Continent; who could stop Lu Ya holding the Donghuang Bell then!

Wuzhuang Temple.

Zhenyuanzi frowned, feeling somewhat indecisive.

To tell the truth, although he also participated in the struggle for orthodoxy, he had long ago ordered his disciples not to harm the innocent during conflicts, but he had not expected to be dragged into the water by Laozi this time.

He naturally understood Laozi's intention, which was to pull them together to deal with the Yin Shang.

But he really did not want to be an enemy of the Human Race.

For one thing, he had saved many humans in the past and enjoyed a high reputation among the Human Race.

It was precisely because of this reputation that his orthodoxy expanded rapidly among the Human Race.

If he took action against Di Qi, the reputation he had gained back then would be destroyed in an instant.

Secondly, he was also wary of Di Qi.

Indeed, he was wary of Yin Qi.

Zhenyuanzi had carefully studied Yin Qi and believed that Yin Qi was not the type to be arrogant and conceited; he likely still had some trump card.

Although he could not guess what that trump card was.

But the Human Race was truly terrifying; a mere acquired race had actually produced nine Quasi-Saints and over a dozen Great Luo Golden Immortals in a million years—it was simply incredible.

Who knew what kind of existence stood behind Di Qi.

And then there were the Three Sovereigns.

Currently, the Three Sovereigns were imprisoned in the Fire Cloud Cave, but who could say they wouldn't have a day to escape?

Therefore, he did not want to be an enemy of the Yin Shang.

But now the Yin Shang was clearly set on destroying the Qiankun Sect; was he supposed to remain indifferent?

That would be a slap in the face.

"Sigh, let's just wait and see for now."

Zhenyuanzi sighed.

He did not know whether he should take action, so he could only wait and see how the situation developed.

The Martial Hall dispatched troops, and all parties watched with bated breath.

The five great sects, including the Shushan Sword Sect, received the news immediately.

Other sects gathered to watch....

Shushan Sword Sect.

Yin Xi's expression was grave.

He had not expected that the Yin Shang Imperial Court would actually dispatch troops, and they started with ten Golden Immortal-level Warships; even without the Martial Hall's Golden Immortals taking action, they probably could not escape.

They had witnessed the terror of Golden Immortal-level Warships on the battlefield.

Although he was at the Golden Immortal Peak and confident he could handle three or four, what about the other four elders?

Furthermore, it was unknown how many Golden Immortals the Martial Hall had dispatched.

The Great Elder shouted excitedly: "Sect Master, the Yin Shang Imperial Court has dispatched troops; quickly ask the Sect Master for help. This time, we must make the Yin Shang army never return, and let that Di Qi know that Saints cannot be humiliated."

The other elders nodded one after another.

They did not have the slightest look of worry; on the contrary, they were eager to have a go.

Yin Xi nodded.

Please... you.... add to your library....!

He did not hesitate and hurriedly used a secret technique to send a message, seeking reinforcements from Laozi.

In fact, he also knew that the Sect Master's gaze was surely fixed upon this place; even without seeking reinforcements, the Sect Master would know.

Not long after, he thought of a response.

It was only the two characters: "Understood."

Although it was only two characters, Yin Xi completely relaxed.

He looked around the hall and laughed heartily: "Everyone, calculating the time, the Shang Dynasty army will arrive soon. Let's go, let's go out and welcome them."

"Yes!"

The elders in the hall responded with laughter and chatter.

……

The speed of the Martial Hall army was very fast.

In fact, besides the Teleportation Array, the Shang Dynasty also mastered the Domain Gate, a technology developed specifically for Warships.

Speed is the essence of war.

If they only relied on the Teleportation Array, given the current scale of the army, each deployment of troops would require a massive amount of time, and each activation of the Teleportation Array would also require a massive amount of Spirit Stones.

Taiqing Hall was located on the highest peak of Shushan.

Standing in front of the hall, one could overlook hundreds of millions of miles of mountains and rivers.

Suddenly, Yin Xi's pupils constricted as he saw the Xukong Sword Sword Sword in front suddenly ripple like water waves, and then, one after another, ferocious-looking Warships charged out from within.

Dense and numerous, there were as many as ten thousand of them.

Among the ten thousand Warships, the lowest were at the Earth Immortal level.

Yet their Shushan Sword Sect did not even have ten thousand Immortal Dao cultivators.

Although they had the Sect Master Laozi as their backing, Yin Xi and the others could not help but feel shocked looking at the dense mass of Warships.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

As soon as the ten thousand Warships stabilized, one figure after another could be seen descending from the bottom of the Warships, quickly gathering into arrays—there were twenty of them, each array consisting of ten thousand men.

The lowest cultivation among them was at the Earth Realm or Golden Core Realm.

They wore uniform standard-issue armor and held standard-issue blades, Swords, or long spears, the lowest of which were Top-grade Spirit Tools.

Looking at such luxurious equipment, even Yin Xi felt envious.

His gaze fell upon Zhang Shaokang, and his pupils could not help but constrict slightly.

Peak Golden Immortal!

It was actually a Peak Golden Immortal!

Zhang Shaokang, Hall Master of the Martial Hall—he naturally recognized him.

When the Shang Dynasty army first conquered this territory, Zhang Shaokang had come up the mountain to pay a visit.

But four years ago, the other party was only at the Golden Immortal Initial Stage.

After only four years of not seeing each other, he had actually soared to a Peak Golden Immortal, and his aura was refined; it did not look like he had taken any shortcuts at all.

Behind Zhang Shaokang were twenty more Golden Immortals, their auras equally refined and filled with baleful energy; they seemed to be battle-hardened war gods.

Even through the sect-protecting array, he could faintly smell the scent of blood.

The Martial Hall was even more terrifying than he had anticipated.

Hiss!

Behind Yin Xi, the elders also secretly gasped.

Had the Yin Shang Imperial Court gone mad?

Their Shushan Sword Sect only had five Golden Immortals, yet they had sent twenty Golden Immortals, along with ten Golden Immortal-level Warships—it was completely a posture of truly intending to leave not even a chicken or dog alive in the Shushan Sword Sect. (End of chapter)
