Any immortal or god who moved through You Xiong's capital knew that, several thousand years ago, the ruler, Ji Shui, had once led a great army to break through Buddhism's Spirit Mountain gate.
Now, the Sage behind Buddhism had come to take revenge. Every immortal and god in the Immortal Capital was worried that Zhunti might slap You Xiong's capital into ashes.
Immortal Lord Ciguang knew nothing of the truth. Seeing Sage Zhunti challenge them outside the Immortal Capital and impose his might upon the capital, he broke into a cold sweat.
How unlucky.
He had only become a Quasi-Sage recently. How had he already been forced to face such a tremendous challenge? Could he really die for his country before accomplishing anything?
Immortal Lord Ciguang secretly prayed that Sage Zhunti would spare You Xiong Immortal Dynasty for the sake of the newly sanctified Human Race Emperor Yan and not attack it.
Deep within the imperial palace, at Ji Shui's secluded cultivation site, he had already sensed Sage Zhunti's arrival and the pressure he had placed upon the Immortal Capital.
"This old bald thief really knows how to throw his weight around."
Ji Shui secretly cursed Sage Zhunti in his heart.
After thinking it over, Ji Shui did not immediately leave seclusion. Instead, he waited for more than a dozen breaths, letting Sage Zhunti shout and curse outside a few more times.
He wanted every cultivator in the Immortal Capital to experience the despair brought by a Sage's might.
When enough time had passed—any more would have been excessive—Ji Shui finally emerged from seclusion.
Seeing Ji Shui emerge, Immortal Lord Ciguang greeted him with delighted surprise.
"Your Majesty, Sage Zhunti has come knocking. How should we deal with this?
"Should we immediately ask His Majesty Emperor Yan for help?"
