Chapter 224: Chapter 52: How Dare the Dayu Empire!_1
Translator: 549690339
Very quickly, the entire Dayu Dynasty started operating like a giant machine.
The logistics department and other departments began preparing various resources for the war.
Immortal artifacts, Immortal pills, and the like are indispensable.
In the end, war is a contest of resources.
The Dayu Dynasty at present didn’t lack resources.
Therefore, preparations were started smoothly.
On the other side, Nan Zhou, a neighbor of the Eastern Continent, hadn’t noticed the unusual developments in the Eastern Continent.
They didn’t even bother to pay attention to the Eastern Continent, which is so close at hand.
Among the ten major continents, the Eastern Continent is the weakest.
Although Nan Zhou is only a rank stronger than the Eastern Continent among the Lower Five States, they still never took the Eastern Continent seriously.
From the perspective of Nan Zhou cultivators, the Eastern Continent is an uncivilized land, they didn’t even have interest in it.
Was the Eastern Continent stirring with the intention of attacking Nan Zhou?
Nan Zhou is different from the Eastern Continent because Nan Zhou doesn’t have the presence of a unified empire like the Dayu Empire.
Instead, it consists of various sects, each occupying a paradise.
On the surface, there is a sect alliance, but it does not play a big role.
Ye Xiaoxiao was not sure about Nan Zhou’s intentions, nor did she care.
For Nan Zhou, a direct push would suffice.
After everything was ready, the ten armies set off.
When the ten armies appeared at the junction of the Eastern and Southern provinces, the cultivators of Nan Zhou finally discovered the anomaly.
“Who are these people?”
“They appear to be from the Eastern Continent!”
“The Dayu Empire of the Eastern Continent? They dare to station at our Nan Zhou’s border. It seems like this Dayu Empire doesn’t want to exist anymore.”
“Report directly to the sect and annihilate this army. Give the Dayu Empire a lesson.”
Sects near the border tend to have average strength.
But these sects are sensible and instead of acting on their own, they reported the situation to the only sect in the vicinity that had cultivators in the Heavenly Immortal Realm, the True Fire Sect.
The Earth Immortal Sects pay tribute to the Heavenly Immortal Sects, and the Heavenly Immortal Sects pay tribute to the Gold Immortal Sects, in a never-ending chain of command.
By rights, this area should belong to the jurisdiction of the True Fire Sect.
When the True Fire Sky Immortal of the True Fire Sect learned that the army of the Dayu Empire was stationed less than a hundred miles from their territory, he was immediately angered.
To a cultivator at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, a hundred miles distance is practically face to face.
Astonishingly, the Dayu Empire was stepping on the face of the True Fire Sky Immortal.
The True Fire Sky Immortal arrived at the border immediately and saw the Dayu Imperial Army across the border.
However, the next moment, the expression on the True Fire Sky Immortal’s face instantly changed.
The strength of this army was formidable.
Most of them were at the Mahayana Realm, and there were also many cultivators at the Human Immortal Realm and Earth Immortal Realm.
While there were no signs of cultivators in the Heavenly Immortal Realm for now, this one army was enough to push over the True Fire Sect.
The most formidable thing about an army was not the number, but the army spirit.
The army spirit of a strong army could easily defeat enemies of higher realms.
However, with the assault already on his doorstep, the True Fire Sky Immortal could not just retract his steps.
If he were to retreat, the dignity of the True Fire Sky Immortal will be completely tarnished.
They weren’t the Clan Leader of the Three Seas Dragon Clan, who had a thick-skin.
“Dayu Empire, you have overstepped your boundaries!”
The True Fire Sky Immortal deployed his maximum Heavenly Immortal aura, flew over the Dayu army, and proclaimed in a cold voice.
The sudden appearance of the True Fire Sky Immortal instantly attracted the attention of the big army.
All the soldiers simultaneously lifted their heads in alert. A formidable will to kill emerged from their bodies and was instantly locked onto the True Fire Sky Immortal.
The intention to kill from each individual might be negligible, but the collected intention to kill from a million cultivators almost scared the True Fire Sky Immortal into turning his head and running away.
Suppressing the unease in his heart, the True Fire Sky Immortal forcibly steadied his slightly shaky legs.
At this moment, a figure flew out from the grand army.
“If you submit to the Dayu Empire now, we will spare your life.”
The next moment, an imposing aura, even stronger than that of the True Fire Sky Immortal, erupted from the figure.
The aura of a Heavenly Immortal, coupled with the aggressive cultivation accumulated over years, made the True Fire Sky Immortal somewhat breathless.
The approaching individual was none other than Xitian True Monarch, who had walked out of the Ten-thousand Stars Sea in those years.
No, he should be called Xitian Heavenly Immortal now.
The current Xitian Heavenly Immortal held an important position in the Dayu Empire and commanded the Ten-thousand Stars Army among ten major armies.
The bulk of the soldiers from the Ten-thousand Stars Army also came out from the Ten-thousand Stars Islands and followed the Ye Family to the Dayu Empire.
At present, the Ten-thousand Stars Army is the strongest army following the Phoenix Girl Army controlled by Ye Xiaoxiao.
They are also the Vanguard Army for the invasion of the Southern Region.
The series of shocks made the True Fire Sky Immortal aware that the actions of the Dayu Empire this time were different from the past. They truly intended to make a move on Nan Zhou.
However, the True Fire Sky Immortal couldn’t understand how the Eastern Continent dared to attack Nan Zhou.
It must be understood that Nan Zhou has several Gold Immortal cultivators alone.
The Dayu Empire—how long has it been established?
Even if the King has broken through to the Golden Immortal Realm, he is still the only Golden Immortal.
With such strength, how dare they attack Nan Zhou?
“Dayu Empire, I advise you not to be delusional. Our Nan Zhou is not something your Eastern Continent can provoke.”
Although normally scattered, the enemy was at their gates now. The True Fire Sky Immortal chose Nan Zhou as the battle banner without any hesitation.
“Nan Zhou? You are in a dangerous position yourself, and yet you are still worrying about Nan Zhou? We have already given you an opportunity, and since you don’t treasure it, so be it!”
The next moment, the aura of Xitian Heavenly Immortal connected instantly with the Ten-thousand Stars Army.
A bodiless war god appeared in the sky above the Ten-thousand Stars Army.
Army Spirit, Xing Tian!
The Xing Tian Formation originally obtained by Ye Fan had been outdated, but after continuous research by the formation masters of the Dayu Empire, it had evolved into an army formation that could accommodate the whole Ten-thousand Stars Army.
With the emergence of the army spirit, the complexion of the heaven and earth changed.
At this moment, the True Fire Sky Immortal regretted his decision but it was too late.
The giant axe slashed down, space was sealed off, the True Fire Sky Immortal had nowhere to run or hide.
The massive axe gently slid across the True Fire Sky Immortal’s body, splitting him in two from his physical body to his spiritual soul.
Until his death, the True Fire Sky Immortal still carried a hint of suspicion.
Why did the Dayu Empire take action so fast, aren’t they afraid of Nan Zhou’s retaliation?
What he did not know was that he must die.
Becase the Dayu Empire needs to announce its arrival to Nan Zhou with the death of a Heavenly Immortal.
Within the True Fire Sect, the soul jade symbolizing the True Fire Sky Immortal broke apart instantly. The soul fire contained within dissipated instantly, marking the downfall of a Heavenly Immortal.
Along with it, the image from just before the True Fire Sky Immortal’s death was transmitted back.
“Bad news, the Dayu Empire truly intend to attack Nan Zhou. Quickly relay the news back to the Sect Alliance!”
The entire True Fire Sect instantly plunged into chaos.
The Dayu Empire has arrived, and Nan Zhou was in chaos.
The True Fire Sky Immortal is dead, the next target would be their True Fire Sect.
How dare the Dayu Empire!
