“What’s that…”
When a bloody qi rushed into the sky from the Sincerity Garden, many people in the emperor’s imperial city became amazed. Few people could promote to knights; few knights had witnessed the battle between heavenly knights; especially between one heavenly knight and one semi-sage knight.
Therefore, when that bloody qi rushed into the sky, many people in the emperor’s imperial city thought that there was a performance today. As Xuanyuan Hill was holding the Treasures Meeting, it was predictable that there was some festive program in the emperor’s imperial city. Additionally, such things happened before.
However, those people who saw this bizarre scenery from afar soon realized that it was not a festive program but a major event.
The bloody qi that rushed into the sky from Sincerity Garden was abnormal and overbearing like a big heavenly fire. With a bizarre light, the bloody qi was constantly changing into various bizarre fierce beasts as if it wanted to get rid of an invisible bond.
There was a moment when the bloody qi was going to break the bond; however, closely after that, a looming huge, pitch-dark stele appeared above the bloody qi, suppressing it once again.
Everybody across the emperor’s imperial city could hear tens of thousands of muffled thunders rolling over the ground from the direction of the Sincerity Garden, causing an earthquake within 13 miles around Sincerity Garden. The closer it was to Sincerity Garden, the fiercer the earthquake would be. All the people living nearby Sincerity Garden had escaped out of their houses out of fear. Closely after that, they were all evacuated by the imperial forbidden army in the emperor’s imperial city. As a result, the soldiers of Imperial Guards soon covered 13 miles around Sincerity Garden.
“Far-ancient Immortal Stele!” A knight-level general of the imperial guards exclaimed as he looked up at the words on the 100 m higher classic huge stele above Sincerity Garden while standing outside Sincerity Garden.
Of course, this was not the real Far-ancient Immortal Stele, but an incarnation like battle qi totem.
It seemed that the entire Sincerity Garden was covered by a grey mist. The grey mist was constantly twisting as if tens of thousands of swirls and hidden flows were surging in the mist. People couldn’t see clearly what was happening inside the mist. Given the heavy earthquakes, they could sense that it was not peaceful inside.
“Let me take a look inside…” A brave earth knight of Imperial Guards gritted his teeth as he rushed towards the grey mist. However, the moment he approached the mist, he had been bounced back. The grey mist was covered with a strong, irresistible force field. The earth knight tried twice; however, the greater the strength he exerted, the greater the rebounding energy would be. When the earth knight was bounced back for the 3rd time, he almost got injured.
“No more try. It’s close to a sage-level strength. Even heavenly knights could barely access to it by force…” Along with this sound, the commander-in-chief of Imperial Guards arrived with a solemn look. With double pupils in each eye, his eyebrows were so long that they reached his temples.
As one of the 9 ministers in Taixia Country, the commander-in-chief was shocked too much by the intensity of the earthquake as he watched the changing grey mist over Sincerity Garden.
‘Master of the royal prince has already promoted to semi-sage. The familiar finance minister Han Zhengfang is already a heavenly knight.’ The heart of commander-in-chief of Imperial Guards pounded.
“You hurriedly go to the Golden Water River and assist the Zodiac Guards to safeguard Golden Water River. Without the consent of the royal prince, nobody is allowed to leave the emperor’s imperial city at this moment. I’ll be responsible for this place…” The commander-in-chief immediately sent an order.
“Yes, sir…” The other knights around Sincerity Garden immediately left at the order.
Some black iron knights and earth knights couldn’t even interfere with the battle between a heavenly knight and a semi-sage knight. If Han Zhengfang was able to escape out of the realm of Meng Shidao, these knights outside Sincerity Garden could never resist Han Zhengfang. Therefore, they’d better play their role in the best place; instead of increasing casualties in vain.
Based on Han Zhengfang’s arrangement in Xuanyuan Hill over these years, Han Zhengfang should have some accomplices in the emperor’s imperial city. At this critical moment, the remnants of Heavens Reaching Church could never escape away from the emperor’s imperial city anymore.
Almost the moment those subordinate knights of commander-in-chief of Imperial Guards turned around, they had seen a knight’s battle qi totem rushing into the sky from the Golden Water River in the far.
Someone wanted to cross Golden Water River and had already started a battle with Zodiac Guards. What the commander-in-chief of Imperial Guards was concerned about had immediately come true.
The commander-in-chief of Imperial Guards didn’t care about what happened over Golden Water River anymore; instead, a brilliant light gradually came into being in his hand and turned into a huge 3.3 m-long saber which carried a strong killing intent.
When the commander-in-chief of Imperial Guards held the huge saber in one hand in an imposing manner, he kept a close eye watch on the changing grey mist in the Sincerity Garden with a pair of brilliant eyes…
At the order of the royal prince, the two generals of God’s Will Army and Feather Army had already been on the way here at the highest speed, followed by their powerful subordinates. Only after a couple of hours, nothing to worry about no matter how Heavens Reaching Church made arrangements in Xuanyuan Hill.
…
The bloody sea dashed to the sky in the Sincerity Garden.
In the semi-sage realm, there was no concept of size or space. Everything visible was incarnated by the four elements. The mysteries in the realm could only be known by the sage, whether true or not.
If it happened outside Sincerity Garden, Han Zhengfang’s surging bloody billows had long covered 60 square miles. However, at this moment, Han Zhengfang’s surging bloody billows still failed to break out of this tiny Sincerity Garden.
Han Zhengfang had to use his most powerful means as a heavenly knight. Because he knew that even if he could break out of the semi-sage realm of Meng Shidao 2 hours later, he couldn’t leave Xuanyuan Hill anymore, because it would only take the generals of the top 4 armies of Taixia Country 3 hours to arrive at Xuanyuan Hill after receiving the message about the chaos facing Xuanyuan Hill.
As the emperor’s imperial city counted most. The powerhouses on the back of emperor’s imperial city would not leave there at this moment. As long as one of the generals of the top 4 armies arrived, Han Zhengfang would have no hope to survive anymore.
The bloody billows turned more and more black and increasingly fiercer. A virtual immortal beast which looked like tortoise and dragon roared towards the sky like a living being, arousing extremely high bloody billows, shocking thunders, and bloody lightning bolts. Additionally, various ferocious beasts being incarnated by the bloody billows were constantly charging at the people above the bloody billows and the invisible barrier which bounded off this bloody sea. Each ferocious beast was more powerful than the images incarnated by common black iron knights’ battle qis.
Suspending still above the bloody sea, Meng Shidao was wrapped in a colorful light, hair and beard swaying in the air, he was lifting a mountain-like virtual far-ancient immortal stele like a deity and shattered Han Zhengfang’s strike one after another.
“Mercy is the heart of universal laws; virtue is the body of universal laws; etiquette is the tool of universal laws; righteousness is the driving force of universal laws; universal laws are looming with various images and objects. It contains true essences and trust. Universal laws are innominate; just follow the universal laws…”
In the sky, as master of royal prince recited the sutras on the Far-ancient Immortal Stele, the sound in the entire semi-sage realm grew increasingly louder. Everything in the realm started to resonate and rock together with this sound. Those beasts which were more ferocious than the battle qi images of common knights were successively flying out of the bloody billows before turning into bloody waves and falling off in the next second among the sutras that filled the entire realm.
Thunders stroke onto the head of the immortal beast in the shape of a tortoise and a dragon which was manifested by the heavenly knight using the secret method of combining blood with life when the immortal beast was brewing storms in the bloody sea.
The bloody sea caught fire…
The immortal beast’s roar became more earth-shaking.
…
The earthquake in the emperor’s imperial city and the battle qi totems which were rushing into the sky from the Golden Water River indicated that more and more people were involved in today’s chaos. Of course, Han Zhengfang and Han Yuanhong were not the only members of Heavens Reaching Church in Xuanyuan Hill; therefore, all the other members of Heavens Reaching Church had exerted their full efforts to escape away from the emperor’s imperial city, arousing many turmoils.
Not only the emperor’s imperial city was rocking, but a loud boom also drifted from the underground space of Gold and Power Market soon after the three earth knights assigned by the Supreme Court entered the secret tunnel in Treasures Complex, causing the ground over Gold and Power Market rock for a short while. Additionally, the ground of a 4-storey building miles away from Treasures Complex in the west rose and fell like doughballs, causing the 4-storey building to collapse completely. Some people who were buried inside started to scream miserably…
The strong airflow that was sent out of the entrance of the secret tunnel broke all the windows in the study, causing the onlookers dumbfounded.
“Alchemist’s bomb. There is an alchemist’s bomb underground!” Someone shouted, scaring away all the onlookers who were waiting there for the result. None of them could imagine that there was an alchemist’s bomb beneath Treasures Complex.
A few minutes later, the three earth knights who had just rushed into the hidden tunnel exited the hidden tunnel with embarrassed looks. Thankfully, they all survived although getting injured.
“Pass my order, block all the sewers that lead to the outside of Xuanyuan Hill!” An earth knight roared.
Soon after the roar, a louder boom drifted from a place miles away from Gold and Power Market. Closely after that, hundreds of meters high flame rose up from the ground over there…
At the sight of this scene, the three earth knights of Supreme Court changed their faces once again.
“What’s that place?” An earth knight caught a staff of Treasures Complex as he asked loudly.
“That…is a materials warehouse that Gold and Power Law built outside Gold and Power Market…” The staff in Treasures Complex was scared too much by the series of accidents as he replied in a flurried way.
As the night gradually fell, Xuanyuan Hill was gradually in chaos.
