Chapter 867

He never expected that the hegemony he had so tirelessly pursued was, in the vast cosmos containing three thousand great worlds, not worth a single snort.

For a moment, he felt his composure cracking apart.

"Four Dragon Head, the three thousand great worlds you mentioned — is that the Ten Thousand Realms?"

Hearing Fusu was also utterly shocked, then quickly came back to himself, recalling the term 'Ten Thousand Realms' that was being discussed throughout the court of Great Qin.

Suddenly struck by inspiration, he asked Senior Xiaoyaozi directly.

"Prince Fusu is indeed clever."

Senior Xiaoyaozi stroked his beard and smiled, praising Hearing Fusu with a single line,

"Correct! The Ten Thousand Realms mentioned by the Heavenly Dao Golden List and the Heavenly Dao Hundred Flowers List is precisely the three thousand great worlds!"

Whoosh!

The people of every faction could not help but burst into an uproar.

Only now did they understand what the so-called Ten Thousand Realms actually referred to.

"But what exactly do these Ten Thousand Realms, or three thousand great worlds, refer to?"

Although it had been explained that the three thousand great worlds were the Ten Thousand Realms, Hearing Fusu still did not understand what the three thousand great worlds meant.

Senior Xiaoyaozi gave a light tap, and the image in his hand shifted rapidly.

The next moment, a vast, open plaza was revealed.

Countless dark masses of warriors, divided into their respective formations, filled the entire plaza.

Behind the plaza stood a towering, soaring great hall.

Beneath the great hall stood a single figure, hand resting on his sword, glaring imperiously in all four directions.

He wore a black dragon robe, his gaze dark, hawkish, and domineering.

"Long live the First Emperor! Long live! Long live!"

As his gaze swept across, wherever it passed, a square of warriors would shout in unison.

For a moment, cries of 'long live' rose like mountain waves — a truly magnificent sight.

Even though everyone present was a superior figure of their respective faction,

seeing such a scene, they could not help but feel a certain admiration for this First Emperor.

Setting everything else aside, just look at these countless troops moving in perfect unison — this army is a rare elite force indeed!

But Hearing Fusu's eyes were sharp; he only felt that the First Emperor looked somewhat familiar.

He further noticed that these troops, as well as the banners, the style of the palace, and so on, all looked extremely familiar.

A vague guess could not help but stir in his heart.

669 This Ying Zheng is not that Ying Zheng

"Ying Zheng, die!"

Just then, a furious roar rang out from within the image.

The people of every faction, hearing this, could not help but glance at Hearing Fusu with a strange look.

Only now did Hearing Fusu confirm that the First Emperor was indeed Ying Zheng!

Only this Ying Zheng was not that Ying Zheng.

Following that furious roar, two figures suddenly darted out from beyond the plaza in the image.

These two were a man and a woman, each gripping a treasured sword.

The army's warriors, upon seeing this pair charge in, immediately and of their own accord formed into square formations, surging forward like an avalanche to slay the pair.

This army was clearly an elite force.

The square formations they formed were not only dense, but also faintly bolstered by battle arrays.

A combined strike from a hundred or so men was nearly equivalent to a single strike at the Earthly Immortal Realm.

If the attacks of a thousand or more were combined, it would already be brushing against the threshold of the Heavenly Being Realm.

Seeing such a terrifying army, the people of every faction all felt their eyelids twitch.

In their hearts they only found it strange — if this army was so fearsome, why would that pair dare to charge the formation alone?

The next moment, the pair answered everyone's question with their actions.

They were seen wielding flashing sword-light, their swordsmanship appearing plain and unadorned.

Yet every sword they struck carried incomparably terrifying power.

Nearly every thrust of their swords could shatter one of the army's square formations.

One more sword, and a stretch of ground would run with rivers of blood.

"This… the Supreme Mythical Realm!"

The people of every faction who had come here had not necessarily all reached the Supreme Mythical Realm in cultivation, but none of them lacked discernment.

To be able to break through this army's formation with a single sword — the strength of this pair was clearly at the Supreme Mythical Realm.

Two Supreme Mythical Realm experts — no wonder they dared to charge the formation alone, seeking to fight their way into the imperial palace and assassinate the First Emperor, Ying Zheng.

But this First Emperor's army was clearly the elite of elites.

Facing the joint attack of two Supreme Mythical Realm experts, these army warriors were clearly no match for a single blow.

Yet they charged forward wave after wave, constantly forming various battle arrays to meet the enemy.

For a time, before the plaza of the palace, blood flowed in rivers.

Strangely, not a single person screamed or wailed in agony.

"This is the Qin Army — the Qin Army of us old Qin folk!"

Hearing Fusu watched the scene in the image, unable to stop the hot tears from welling in his eyes.

He had already confirmed that what was shown in the image was indeed the Qin Army.

Although this Qin Army was not the same Qin Army as the one from the Great Qin of the Nine Provinces.

The military soul of this Qin Army, however, was no different from the military soul of the Great Qin of the Nine Provinces.

Just as Hearing Fusu was deeply moved, the people of the various factions were all touched as well.

When that pair of supreme Mythical Realm experts, already drenched in blood, had fought their way to the middle of the plaza.

The image came to an abrupt halt.

"Four Dragon Heads?"

The people of the various factions were still unsatisfied and could not help but look toward Senior Xiaoyaozi.

"Everyone should have seen it — this is precisely the Great Qin of another world.

That man is precisely the First Emperor of that world's Great Qin, Hearing Ying Zheng!

The ones assassinating him are precisely experts from that world — Canjian and Miss Feixue!"

Senior Xiaoyaozi, however, paid no heed to the crowd's desire to keep watching, and merely gave a brief explanation.

"What this 'Four Dragon Heads' means is…"

Lord Qiye said with an odd expression,

"Other worlds might also have a Great Qin, a Great Tang, a Great Yuan, or even… the Yin Moon Imperial Court?"

Hearing Lord Qiye's words, Senior Xiaoyaozi could not help but glance at him,

"Correct! In the myriad worlds, there are myriad people or factions sharing the same name.

These factions and people all share some faint connection with us of the Nine Provinces."

When he said this, Senior Xiaoyaozi, whether intentionally or not, glanced at Wu Zhao.

Wu Zhao, who had been utterly composed all along, finally showed a slight change in expression at this moment.

She had some understanding of the Qinglong Society, though most of it came from Wanzhan.

She had assumed the Qinglong Society had at most seen through the fact that she was not the Great Tang's Empress of the Nine Provinces — who would have thought the Qinglong Society knew so much.

"If that is so, then little…"

A glint flashed in Lord Qiye's eyes, his excitement inexplicable.

"Four Dragon Heads, exactly how can one obtain a divine-grade pill from the Qinglong Society?"

Hearing Fusu had originally still been curious whether that world's First Emperor, Hearing Ying Zheng, could survive the assassination attempt by the two supreme Mythical Realm experts, Canjian and Miss Feixue.

But hearing Senior Xiaoyaozi say all this, he suddenly recalled his original purpose.

Wasn't what Senior Xiaoyaozi said precisely what he himself wanted — for the Qinglong Society's divine-grade pill to resolve Master Xiaomeng's hidden peril?

"Prince Hearing Fusu is quick to react."

Senior Xiaoyaozi praised lightly once more, then said,
