"W-W-Was that really a god?"
Could he just be a relatively strong cultivator?
In the streets of Flying Dragon Pass, a tall man looked up at the scene in the sky and spoke in a trembling voice.
"This kind of imposing presence is exactly the same as that described in ancient books."
And that Divine Lord Xuanji, I've seen her at the temple, it shouldn't be false, this deity really is going to attack this place."
Half a month ago, Chen Hongjie had already ordered the ordinary people in Flying Dragon Pass to evacuate. However, for ordinary people, land and houses are sometimes more important than their lives, so a small number of people are still staying in Flying Dragon Pass.
Where there are common people, there will naturally be daring merchants. They usually have some cultivation level, and the reason they stay in Flying Dragon Pass is to see if there are any opportunities to make money.
The two people talking on the street were traveling merchants. They had traveled all over the country and had a wide range of knowledge, so even in such a critical moment, they were still able to talk calmly.
"Hmph! I don't care if he's a god or a cultivator, I support Emperor Chen."
The difference between the lives we lived before and the lives we live now is something everyone can see for themselves.
Even if the Haotian Empire has divine protection, I don't care. I just like the environment here in the Chen Kingdom, unlike the Haotian Empire, where class stratification is rigid and Death Qi.
A female bodyguard, who overheard their conversation, couldn't help but interject.
"However, news just came from outside that Grand Preceptor Chen Mu has admitted that the royal family is a lineage of God-Slaying God, who are sinners who betrayed the Human Clan in the past."
Given Emperor Chen's background, could there have been other motives behind the establishment of the Chen Kingdom?
The traveling merchants came from all over the world. Although this was within the territory of the Chen Kingdom, there were also many merchants from the Haotian Empire who offered their opinions.
Is it meaningful to bring up things from thousands of years ago?
"It's clear that the Haotian Empire lacks tolerance and fears that the Chen Kingdom's growth will threaten its rule. Keep in mind, the Otherworldly Demon haven't even been driven out of the Pan Emperor Continent yet, and they're already rushing into civil war. Their behavior is utterly disgraceful."
The female bodyguard was clearly a staunch supporter of the Chen Kingdom regime, and she retorted vehemently.
Similar debates unfolded throughout Flying Dragon Pass, and the images from there were even transmitted to the outside world via the Spirit Magnetic Network System, sparking a public opinion frenzy throughout the entire Chen Kingdom.
If this had happened thirty or forty years ago, the people of the city would probably have knelt down and begged for the god's forgiveness the moment the Divine Lord Xuanji appeared.
However, after the Rune Technology revolution, the Chen Kingdom gradually became more aware of their own existence and no longer blindly worshipped the gods. Ordinary people were generally able to view the existence of the gods more rationally.
And those cultivators are even more so; the so-called gods are nothing more than stronger cultivators!
The Divine Lord Xuanji unleashed his divine pressure, intending to demoralize the Chen Kingdom's army within Flying Dragon Pass.
However, the results were clearly not ideal. Since Chen Mu had decided to declare war on the Haotian Empire at Flying Dragon Pass, why wouldn't he send his most elite soldiers to be stationed there?
Furthermore, half of the Chen Kingdom's soldiers are robots; they only know how to receive combat orders and don't care whether their opponents are mortals or gods.
"Get out of here and destroy this city!"
After realizing that his oppressive aura had no effect, Divine Lord Xuanji snorted coldly and immediately ordered his men to attack Flying Dragon Pass.
She then focused her energy on Chen Mu, and if Chen Mu dared to attack anyone else, he would inevitably face her fierce and relentless attacks.
" A Huo, you and the Demon-Slaying Sword deal with Divine Lord Cangmu. Leave the rest to Mingye."
Back on his own turf, Chen Mu felt much more relaxed and remained calm in the face of Divine Lord Xuanji's lock-on.
"Good!"
"No problem!"
After A Huo and Mingye responded, the Demon-Slaying Sword transformed into a sharp sword-shaped beam, its edge aimed directly at Divine Lord Cangmu.
Meanwhile, Mingye slowly disappeared into the shadows of the void, charging alone towards dozens of Celestial Person Race powerhouses.
Although the Chen Kingdom has cultivated many Saint Level experts in the past two years, in terms of both quantity and quality, it is definitely inferior to the Haotian Empire.
This time, Chen Mu and the Haotian Empire have broken off relations. Long Bo has mobilized his legions to launch a full-scale war against the Chen Kingdom. The vast territory of the Chen Kingdom needs Sage to oversee it everywhere.
Therefore, apart from the three of them, only a handful of Sage are currently guarding Flying Dragon Pass.
According to Chen Mu's estimation, the Haotian Empire's Haori Cavalry is already on its way to Flying Dragon Pass, and it won't be long before these soldiers arrive at Flying Dragon Pass.
Therefore, the few Sage inside Flying Dragon Pass cannot be moved; they must remain to deal with the army of the Haotian Empire. Currently, the only ones truly capable of resisting the powerful enemy are these three.
" Demon-Slaying Battle Formation, Charge!"
Under A Huo's influence, the power of everyone in the Demon-Slaying Legion condensed at the tip of the sword light. The fierce aura seemed to destroy everything and crashed hard into Divine Lord Cangmu.
"Hehe, even a grain of rice can shine."
Despite the overwhelming momentum of the Demon-Slaying Legion, Divine Lord Cangmu merely raised his cane and placed it in front of the sword's edge.
puff...!
The sharp sword light struck the cane, just like a red-hot iron hitting millennia-old Profound Ice; it couldn't make a sound and gradually cooled down.
For deities, the idea that anything below the God Level is an ant is not an exaggeration, but a true testament to the overwhelming power of their energy levels.
Spiritual Power trying to defeat Divine Power is like a cell trying to harm a person; besides the difference in strength, it's more about the difference in dimensions.
Cells and humans are not on the same level at all. No matter how many cells there are, a human can only attack another cell; it cannot comprehend the concept of the human body.
But humans can understand cells. If a human doesn't want to be attacked by cells, even if they stare at a cell under a microscope, the cell won't know anything.
However, cells can undergo qualitative changes through fusion and evolution, transforming into humans or other organisms at the same level as humans.
Therefore, unless Spiritual Power is transformed into Divine Power through cultivation, even if A Huo can gather the Spiritual Power of three thousand people into one, it is impossible for him to harm the Divine Power power of Divine Lord Cangmu.
"Is this your Divine Power? It's really strong!"
Despite failing to achieve his goal, A Huo showed no signs of discouragement. Instead, his eyes shone brightly and his expression was filled with excitement.
"Hmph! They're courting death!"
Seeing that A Huo was so arrogant, Divine Lord Cangmu surged with Divine Power, and countless sharp vines extended from his back, wrapping around the Demon-Slaying Sword.
"Alright! To show my respect, you shall also try out my Divine Power!"
As soon as A Huo finished speaking, black flames suddenly erupted from his body. These black flames spread extremely quickly, engulfing the entire Demon-Slaying Sword in an instant.
"Destroy, One-Sword Asura!!"
