The soldiers were divided into two groups, with one going towards the Gate of the Underworld, which was also the main force, numbering around two hundred thousand. The main officer was YanJun, while the deputy general was Mo Ji.
As for the other side of the road, they were headed by Asura King. Although there were not many people along the way, all of them were elite soldiers, and their realms were not inferior to the battle spirit King, so their leader was Old Blade Demon.
CHAPTER 1138 - KING CHASE
YanJun's army of two hundred thousand advanced towards the Gate of the Underworld, but stopped a few dozen kilometers away from it.
A scout who was an expert at concealing himself took the lead to head towards the Gate of the Underworld's entrance to check out the enemy's situation.
Before the Gate of the Underworld was opened, it was completely empty and ordinary people who wanted to enter wouldn't even be able to find the door. Only people with privileges in the Gate of the Underworld had the right to open the Gate of the Underworld on their own.
Other than this, the Gate of the Underworld would only appear when the Underworld Token was felt at a certain time. However, that time would usually be around midnight.
It was currently daytime so normal Gate of the Underworld members were simply unable to freely enter and exit the Gate of the Underworld. They could only wait for the Gate of the Underworld to open.
This scout was specially stationed outside the Gate of the Underworld to survey the situation. He would only activate his Gate of the Underworld when he was waiting for Hu Jiu'er to return.
At this time, a lot of people were gathered at Gate of the Underworld. Many members of Gate of the Underworld had already received the news that the Gate of the Underworld had changed hands, and came one after another to pay their respects to the new king.
The scouts had snuck into the midst of the Gate of the Underworld members, and through his extremely skilled concealment techniques, no one noticed anything unusual about this person.
His goal was to report back the moment Hu Jiu'er returned, and that would be the best time to attack.
The elite troops led by Old Blade Demon also stopped at the outskirts of Asura King, not daring to step into the midst of Asura King's Asura barrier.
Once one stepped into the Asura barrier, it was equivalent to stepping into Asura King's territory. That way, it was very easy to be discovered in advance.
A total of a hundred thousand elite soldiers were hidden in the vast desert, completely covered up by the scalding hot sand. Only their eyes were left to observe their surroundings.
Old Blade Demon was waiting for Hu Jiu'er to leave the city. As long as Hu Jiu'er led Nether General out of the city, it would be the best time for them to attack Asura King.
At that time, Asura King would be like an empty city. As long as they entered Asura King's army of a hundred thousand, with his battle spirit emperor cultivation and one hundred thousand elite soldiers, they would definitely be invincible!
An inescapable net had been quietly laid down, waiting for the best hunting time. Feng Yixiu and Hu Jiu'er were the main prey in this hunt.
… ….
At this moment, Asura King was extremely lively. Almost all of Asura King's residents had arrived at the outer wall of the Asura King Palace. Although they couldn't see Asura King himself, they still stood devoutly at the outer wall.
In just three days, the story of Feng Yixiu sacrificing his dignity to save the slaves and his people had spread like wildfire through the streets and alleys.
During this period of time, Feng Yixiu had also sprinkled the Dark Gold Seed all over the streets and alleys, and Dark Golden Vine would cling to all kinds of plants, assimilating them into new Dark Gold Plants.
The countless dark golden ancient trees that were emitting golden rays of light made Asura King, who was already prosperous, even more resplendent, revealing a peerless noble aura.
Furthermore, Feng Yixiu also ordered normal residents and slaves to be free to use dark gold. All of the lower class residents and even slaves in Wu Steel City stayed awake for three days and three nights out of excitement.
The residents of Asura King Du were also stratified. The denizens of the lowest class were naturally the blood spirit master s who possessed absolute strength. The second generation ordinary citizens who did not have any battle spirit bloodlines awakened, and the lowest class were the slaves who could be sold at will.
Dark gold was of no value to the high-rank residents, because they would not lack these worldly goods, and the patrolling enforcement team would not allow them to do so.
Every tree was guarded by a member of the law enforcement team and they were registered according to the law. Besides the blood spirit master, the citizens could obtain up to 100 grams of gold per day.
This 100 grams of gold might not mean much to the upper class residents, but for the lower class residents and slaves, this was a huge amount of gold!
Although Feng Yixiu had yet to officially become the emperor, but in the hearts of the majority of the residents of Wu Steel City, he was already wearing a dazzling crown.
… ….
Asura King Palace.
Feng Yixiu and Hu Jiu'er had already changed into the most dazzling King's Robe, but the two of them were not blinded by the joy in front of them. It was because they knew that they were about to face a great battle that would decide the fate of Asura King and the fate of their Gate of the Underworld.
Hu Jiu'er glanced at Feng Yixiu and helped him tidy up his clothes before straightening the crown on his head. She said in a low voice, "Feng, how about I ask Xavier to stay and help you …"
Feng Yixiu said gently: "The Emperor of the Dansha Empire is most definitely worried about you. He must have arranged for a large number of people to head to the Gate of the Underworld this time, so I was worried about you … Why don't you take Rose and the rest with you as well? "
Hu Jiu'er shook her head helplessly. She knew she couldn't persuade Feng Yixiu, so she said, "Ah... "I knew I couldn't convince you, so let's stick to our original plan."
He raised his head to look at the time, and softly replied: "It's about time, you should also set off for the Gate of the Underworld, if not, those people from Dansha Empire would definitely not dare to act rashly."
Hu Jiu'er nodded her head slightly and took the lead to walk out of Asura King Palace. The eight Nether General s had already been waiting outside for a long time.
Within three days, Xavier, who was the leader of the eight Nether General s, had long finished preparing everything in her Gate of the Underworld. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many Gate of the Underworld members outside who received the news and came to pay their respects.
"Your Highness, can we set off now?" Xavier bowed first.
"Let's go..." Hu Jiu'er nodded her head and slowly walked toward a carriage that was emitting a ghostly flame.
This special carriage was only fit for a king in Gate of the Underworld, and its name was "Ghost Carriage". It was also an extremely special kind of Demon Beast, a rare kind of Demon Beast that had formed under the long seclusion of the Gate of the Underworld.
A normal person would be frozen into an ice sculpture by the terrifying Netherworld Ghost Flame before they could even get close to it. It represented the supreme status of the Gate of the Underworld.
However, these will-o '-the-wisp couldn't affect Hu Jiu'er in the slightest. She calmly sat on the ghost carriage and nodded at Xavier and the others.
The first thing Xavier did was to summon her blood spirit. The barrel that was supposed to be used to fire the cannons had actually turned into a propeller, spewing out powerful tail flames.
The rest of the Nether General s also summoned their own blood spirit s, and the blood spirit without the ability to fly could only sit on top of other people's blood spirit.
The ghost carriage slowly rose into the air, and the rest of the Nether General followed closely behind,
with the ghost carriage as the center, perfectly protecting it.
In a short moment, Hu Jiu'er, the eight Nether General s, and the others disappeared from everyone's line of sight, and quickly rushed toward the Gate of the Underworld.
CHAPTER 1139 - MILLENNIUM RING
Feng Yixiu looked at the gorgeous rainbow trail and said in a deep voice, "I hope everything will go well with Jiu'er …"
Rose frowned. "Your Majesty, since Miss Jiu'er is so strong, she will definitely be fine. Compared to them, I'm actually more worried about us …"
Feng Yixiu smiled and seriously looked at Rose. He teased her, "Sister Rose, do you really not trust my strength that much?"
"It's not that I don't trust your abilities, I'm just afraid that if the Emperor from Dansha Empire were to send one of the ten great sages over, what should we do?" Rose asked worriedly.
"What are you afraid of? God block, God kill, Buddha block, Buddha kill!" The corner of Feng Yixiu's mouth slightly raised, revealing a trace of a arrogant smile.
Finished speaking, Feng Yixiu slowly walked towards the Asura Square. That was the place where the coronation ceremony was held. All the higher-ups of Asura King were already waiting quietly.
Cheng Xiaotian looked at Feng Yixiu's confident back and muttered beside Rose: "I really don't know where your majesty's confidence comes from. If it really is battle spirit emperor coming from, no matter how strong your majesty is, he is only a mature blood spirit. How can we fight against them?"
Other than Hu Jiu'er, no one else knew about Feng Yixiu's successful evolution of Enchantress of Thorns.
Rose said in a low voice, "Are you afraid?"
Cheng Xiaotian stammered, "Why would I be afraid, but we have to prepare for the worst … If it really is the Saint Sage coming, how are we going to deal with him? "
Rose's eyes shone as she said coldly, "I will die before the King …"
Cheng Xiaotian was stunned for a long time when he heard that. Only when Rose had walked far away did he come back to his senses. He immediately shouted, "Then I will also die before you!"
Without turning back, Rose waved her hand and said, "Don't worry. You're so weak. This wish of yours will definitely come true!"
… ….
Asura King was at the periphery.
In the sky above the concealed area where the 100,000 elite soldiers were led by Old Blade Demon, a gorgeous rainbow quickly flashed past, leaving only a bright and beautiful trail of flame.
When Hu Jiu'er passed by, she suddenly felt a very hidden Spiritual Energy's fluctuation. It was at the bottom of the ghost car, feeling the quantity and quality of the Spiritual Energy. Even Hu Jiu'er was a little worried.
However, in order to not attract the opponent's attention, Hu Jiu'er didn't stop at all, and hurried towards Gate of the Underworld with a constant speed.
Old Blade Demon and the rest didn't dare to stick their heads out even after the ghost car had passed by. They were afraid that if they were caught by Hu Jiu'er, all their efforts would be in vain.
His target wasn't Hu Jiu'er, but Asura King Du. He only dared to attack after Hu Jiu'er had really distanced herself from him. At least, Hu Jiu'er wouldn't be able to support him in time.
Therefore, he was secretly calculating the time when Hu Jiu'er arrived at Gate of the Underworld. YanJun and Mo Ji would delay Hu Jiu'er so that she would not have the chance to support Asura King at all.
As long as they captured Asura King, then quickly head to Gate of the Underworld to deal with Hu Jiu'er together, this would be their main strategy for this battle, and also the strategy with the highest winning rate deduced by the thousand year Wisdom Wheel.
The reason they didn't dare to take the risk and use all their forces to fight Gate of the Underworld or Asura King was because they were afraid of Hu Jiu'er, this extremely unstable variable.
If they attacked Gate of the Underworld with all their might, perhaps the three of them together wouldn't be able to kill Hu Jiu'er who wanted to escape. If she had the chance to escape back to Asura King Du, then it would be a very troublesome matter.
This was like alerting a snake on the grass. If Hu Jiu'er still stays in Asura King and doesn't come out, then they might not have a chance to take down Asura King in this lifetime.
After all, Hu Jiu'er was a genuine Master Class Demon Beast, and wasn't restricted by the laws of Asura King. This was a synonym for invincibility, even if Blood Emperor and Pharaoh King worked together, they probably wouldn't dare to step foot in Asura King.
If they were to attack Asura King, they couldn't guarantee that Hu Jiu'er would come back in time. If she did, they would be wiped out in an instant!
Thus, splitting their forces into two was their best choice at the moment. Old Blade Demon was in charge of quickly taking down Asura King Du, while YanJun and Mo Ji were in charge of holding up Gate of the Underworld.
By that time, even if Nine-tailed Sky Fox managed to react, Asura King was already occupied by Old Blade Demon. With the strength of the thousand-year Scepter, she wouldn't be able to return to Asura King City easily.
No matter how fast Old Blade Demon was joining forces with YanJun and Mo Ji, even if he couldn't kill Hu Jiu'er, he could drive her out of this piece of land called Danzhou.
At that time, thousand-year Scepter would be under Blood Emperor 's control, and with his extremely strong battle spirit emperor, the thousand-year Scepter would possess terrifying might in his hands.
There were two ways to obtain thousand-year Scepter. One was to not be restricted by Asura King's laws, and the other was to be able to control Asura barrier freely, making it impossible for people to enter and leave Asura Profound Beasts easily.
Therefore, having thousand-year Scepter in Asura King's hands gave him a natural advantage. Although he wasn't suppressed by Asura King's rules, he could suppress all those who entered Asura King's city, even if it was the legacy of a saint.
In theory, even if Feng Yixiu had thousand-year Scepter, he could still suppress Hu Jiu'er, but he had never experimented on it before. After all, Feng Yixiu felt that even if he had suppressed her cultivation level, he would definitely not be a match for Jiu'er. What's more, he would also not make a move against her.
Evil beings like the Blood-Red Scepter had already been destroyed by the combined efforts of Feng Yixiu and Hu Jiu'er. There was no existence in this world that could fight against the thousand-year Scepter.
After a full half an hour, Old Blade Demon finally stood up from the scorching desert and said in a deep voice, "It should be about time …"
Suddenly, the hundred thousand elite soldiers hidden in the desert all stood up. These were all well-trained elite soldiers, and the word "Murderous" was written on their faces.
The oppressive power that came from a hundred thousand elite soldiers was extremely shocking. Even the surrounding Demon Beast, upon seeing such a powerful aura, took a detour and did not dare to confront it.
The total number of troops in Dansha Empire was merely a million and there were already three hundred thousand troops. It was a full fifteen times the total strength of Gate of the Underworld and Asura King. It could be said that they had a huge advantage.
Old Blade Demon's right hand was wrapped in dark red light, and a weird long blade slowly condensed. It was the Spirit Weapon that he was so proud of — — Ghastly Shadow Blade.
At the same time, the thousand-year ring on his right hand began to glow with a dark golden light. He slashed at the empty space in front of him, creating a huge hole in the still space.
This was the ring's ability to travel through space. However, the length of time it took and the distance it traveled had a lot to do with the Spiritual Energy that was being used.
At this time, Old Blade Demon was already at the periphery of Asura King City, and the distance from Wu Steel Palace was not out of reach. The space passage opened up in front of him was leading directly to Wu Steel Palace, he wanted to attack Huang Long at his fastest spe
ed!
"We don't have much time, we have to attack Asura King Du as fast as possible!" Old Blade Demon told the five deputy Generals beside him.
CHAPTER 1140 - PALM OF FEMUR
These five deputy Generals were all experts of battle spirit sovereign. If it wasn't for Old Blade Demon insisting on participating in this battle, perhaps these people would be the main generals.
One of the deputy generals frowned and asked: "After occupying Asura King Du, how do we deal with the surrender residents that live there?"
Old Blade Demon rolled his eyes and said coldly, "Do you even need to ask? They are just some damn outlaws. No matter if they are going to surrender or not, we will kill them all! "
Hearing that, the five deputy Generals looked at each other. There might be millions of residents in Asura King.
The vast majority of them were ordinary people without any cultivation. Although they were the descendants of evil people, it did not mean that they were guilty.
There were even many slaves that were sold to Asura King in Dansha Empire and underground trade, weren't they innocent?
Millions of people had been slaughtered. What a bloody scene this would be …
"What is it? Do you have any objections? " Old Blade Demon looked at the five of them with a gaze full of power and power. It was obvious what he meant by threatening them.
"I don't dare, we'll just do as you say." After all, the five deputy Generals were not the commander, they did not dare to rebel against Old Blade Demon.
Old Blade Demon nodded with satisfaction and then took the lead to enter the crack in the space in front of him. The 100,000 elite soldiers behind him followed his steps and entered it in an orderly manner.
… ….
On the large plaza of Asura King Palace.
Feng Yixiu sat on the throne with a solemn expression. He seemed to be waiting for the coronation ceremony to come, but in reality, he was waiting for the war horn to blow.
