After creating two spear techniques of his own, Gu Yi returned from the Nine Nether Forbidden Land to Heavenly Void Ancient City in the Eight Desolations Realm.
After receiving Gu Yi's message, the Flame Emperor had arrived at Heavenly Void Ancient City over a month ago.
The Flame Emperor modified the Heavenly Void Ancient Array, allowing travel between the Snow Moon Empire and the Central Desolation, completely opening the Spatial Tunnel between the two lands.
Thus, Heavenly Void Ancient City had now become an enclave of the Snow Moon Empire within the Eight Desolations Realm, a powerful city second only to the Snow Moon Imperial Capital.
After these days of spreading, everyone in the Eight Desolations Realm had heard of how the Snow Moon Empire's emperor had slain multiple Martial Emperors while still in the Venerable Martial Realm.
Such a heaven-defying feat shocked countless people and filled them with admiration for Gu Yi.
Even over a hundred years, the Eight Desolations Realm might not produce a single Martial Emperor.
Yet ten Martial Emperors had died at Gu Yi's hands, nearly half of all Martial Emperor experts in the Eight Desolations Realm.
Such an achievement was unprecedented.
If Gu Yi wished it, he could even kill every Martial Emperor in the Eight Desolations Realm!
He was unquestionably the strongest person in the Eight Desolations Nine Nether!
Therefore, after the Snow Moon Empire announced that Heavenly Void Ancient City had become part of its territory, not only did the martial artists of the Eight Desolations Realm feel no resentment, many Venerable Martial Realm and Heavenly Martial Realm cultivators even volunteered themselves, wishing to join the Snow Moon Empire and become Gu Yi's disciples!
Quite a few factions also sent letters of allegiance.
This was exactly what Gu Yi wanted.
