A Desperate Struggle! All for Nothing? Certain Death

Immediately afterwards, a vast expanse of the void appeared, and streams of the Great Chu Dynasty's Power of National Destiny surged forth.

"Boom!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

In no time, the immense Power of National Destiny was fully amplified by the Blood Prison Soul-Suppressing Blade.

The next moment, an overwhelming aura emanated from the Blood Prison Soul-Suppressing Blade in the Chu Emperor's hand.

It should be understood that the Great Chu Dynasty, as the head of the Nine Great Dynasties, possesses a fortune far superior to that of the Maple Leaf Dynasty, one of the Hundred Strong Dynasties.

Even though this place is far away from the Great Chu Dynasty, the fortune it gathers here is still immense and abundant.

"Um?"

Seeing that the Chu Emperor had also used the fortune of his own Imperial Dynasty, Empress Liuye's face suddenly darkened.

The next moment, a resolute glint flashed in her eyes, and she waved her hand.

Upon closer inspection, an ancient Bronze Mirror suddenly appeared in Empress Liuye's hand.

As soon as this scene appeared, a terrifying aura instantly filled the air.

On the mirror's surface, mysterious runes flowed, radiating a soft yet resilient light.

It is none other than the Maple Leaf Dynasty's national Immortal Artifact, the Heaven and Earth Mirror!

"Heaven and Earth Mirror, protect my land!"

Empress Liuye uttered a soft shout, channeling her inner True Qi into the mirror, and then unleashed the Heaven and Earth Mirror.

"Boom!"

Then, the Heaven and Earth Mirror flew out and grew longer in the wind!

In a mere instant, it transformed into a curtain of light, enveloping the entire Imperial Dynasty.

In addition, Empress Liuye also gathered more Power of National Destiny and created a second layer of protection under the shield of the Heaven and Earth Mirror.

"Oh!"

Upon seeing this, the Chu Emperor chuckled dismissively, his face full of contempt and disdain.

"Just a Low-grade Immortal Artifact!"

"Watch how I break through your defenses!"

The Chu Emperor roared, and a ten-thousand-foot-tall Blood Butcher Faxiang suddenly appeared behind him.

"Boom boom..."

The moment this Faxiang body appeared, the entire world trembled violently.

Seeing this, everyone below was terrified.

Everyone noticed.

The Chu Emperor's strike, amplified by the national Immortal Artifact Power of National Destiny the Great Chu Dynasty's destiny, was so powerful it could destroy the heavens and the earth!

"This..."

"That's terrifying!"

"Is this the power of the number one ruler of the Nine Great Dynasties?"

"That's terrifying!"

"Can we really withstand this attack?"

"Could it be that my Maple Leaf Dynasty is doomed?"

"..."

Everyone from the Maple Leaf Dynasty was shocked, their entire bodies covered in goosebumps.

Although Empress Liuye unleashed the Heaven and Earth Mirror, a national Immortal Artifact, and also bestowed upon it the immense fortune of the Maple Leaf Dynasty!

But they still weren't sure.

"Cut!"

Just then, the Chu Emperor roared and swung the Blood Prison Soul-Suppressing Blade, which he had raised high above his head, down with a sudden slash.

"Boom..."

The terrifying blade, carrying earth-shattering power, fell straight down.

In the blink of an eye, the blood-red blade slammed into the first layer of protective shield constructed by the Heaven and Earth Mirror.

"Bang!"

A deafening roar echoed through the void.

"Buzzing..."

Immediately afterward, the Heaven and Earth Mirror, which was suspended in mid-air, trembled and hummed violently under the Chu Emperor's strike.

It gave the impression that the Heaven and Heaven and Earth Mirror was about to collapse under such a powerful slash!

Everyone in the Maple Leaf Dynasty was terrified upon seeing this, their hearts filled with unease.

Everyone knows that if Empress Liuye cannot withstand Chu Emperor, then the fate of their Maple Leaf Dynasty will be extremely tragic.

"Pfft!"

Before everyone could recover from their shock,

Empress Liuye, who was hovering in mid-air and controlling the Heaven and Earth Mirror, couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Ah?"

"Empress!!"

"Mother..."

Seeing this, the crowd below was even more shocked, and everyone was terrified.

It was obvious that even Empress Liuye was finding it difficult to withstand the Chu Emperor's powerful blade!

"Boom!"

At this moment, the enormous blood-red blade was still slashing down on the protective barrier formed by the Heaven and Earth Mirror, and the two forces were clashing fiercely in the void.

Empress Liuye's face grew increasingly pale, and blood continued to seep from the corner of her mouth.

Behind them, in the void, the emperors of other Imperial Dynasty, upon witnessing this scene, were both shocked and delighted.

"Liu Ye, why must you endure this so bitterly?"

"Hand over Chen Changqing, and your Maple Leaf Dynasty will be safe!"

"Exactly, why ruin your Maple Leaf Dynasty for an outsider?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, some of the emperors spoke up.

These emperors sounded like they were trying to persuade Empress Liuye, but in reality, they wanted to disturb Liu Ye mind.

"Hmm..."

Upon hearing this, Empress Liuye frowned. Although it was very difficult, her gaze remained resolute as she continued to control the Heaven and Heaven and Earth Mirror to block the Chu Emperor's blade!

At this moment, the officials of the Maple Leaf Dynasty below were all terrified, their faces pale and their eyes filled with despair.

She knew that even if Empress Liuye continued to persist, it would be futile.

After all, besides the Chu Emperor, there were other Imperial Dynasty outside also eyeing the Imperial Dynasty with covetous intent.

"It's over!"

"It's all over now."

"Will my Maple Leaf Dynasty perish just like that?"

"..."

The officials were terrified and completely at a loss.

After seeing the scene in the void, a resolute look flashed in Chen Changqing's eyes.

The next moment, he swiftly took a step forward.

When I looked again, the person had already taken off into the air.

"Ah?"

Upon seeing this, Liu Ruyan was greatly alarmed and exclaimed in surprise:

"Junior brother, what are you doing?"

Helplessly, Chen Changqing didn't respond to what Liu Ruyan said at all. Instead, he glared angrily at the Chu Emperor and shouted:

"You old scoundrel!"

"Chen Changqing is here!"

"Didn't you want revenge on me?"

In less than a few breaths, Chen Changqing had already flown down to Empress Liuye's side.

"Um?"

Upon seeing Chen Changqing's arrival, Empress Liuye was utterly astonished and involuntarily exclaimed in surprise:

What are you doing here?

"Get back here right now!"

It's important to understand that this battle isn't between Nascent Soul and Spirit Transformation; it's a Tribulation Transcendence battle!

Even with Immortal Artifact for protection, Chen Changqing's mere Nascent Soul Nascent Soul level would be utterly useless.

After all, even Empress Liuye, with her Early Tribulation Transcendence Transcending Heaven and Earth Mirror, struggled to withstand the Chu Emperor 'Immortal Artifact attacks, let alone Chen Changqing.

"The Empress."

"They're after me, so I'll face them alone."

"You're not going to risk the fate of the entire Maple Leaf Dynasty for this."

Chen Changqing said calmly, with an air of resignation to his fate.

He knew in his heart that Empress Liuye had done her best, but facing Chu Emperor and the others, even if she risked the fate of the Maple Leaf Dynasty, she probably couldn't save him!

Hearing Chen Changqing's words, Empress Liuye was stunned, unsure of what to do.

If Chen Changqing is handed over now, Chen Changqing will likely die.

But if they don't pay, this arduous struggle seems to ultimately change nothing.

Just as Empress Liuye was stunned, Chu Emperor's eyes flashed with overwhelming killing intent when he saw Chen Changqing appear!

"You little bastard! You finally dared to show your face!"

"I, the Emperor, will kill you today to avenge my son!"
