Who is this?
Kagura frowned, a rare occurrence for her. In her calculations, were there any known top-tier experts she had overlooked?
In this current realm of laws, only a handful can approach the Dragon King Level, but in her view, there are only three who can be considered top-tier experts!
The so-called top-level experts are like Chen Qing, who can usually compress their state and always maintain a level close to the King Level, just at the critical point of the rules of this world. But at the critical moment, they can break through the power of the King Level at any time and reach the temporary King Level. This is the top-level expert.
Don't underestimate this small difference. The gap between the King Level and the non- King Level is huge. Even a short-term breakthrough can have the effect of turning the tide. In the previous analysis, everyone thought that only the emperor of the Xiao Household was at this level. She was cautious and guessed that Chen Qing was also at this level. In the end, her guess was verified.
But to my utter surprise, there were still people there?
Who is it?
Could it be that the leaders of other guilds have intervened?
That shouldn't be the case.
She was able to participate because the Divine Martial Guild's foundation came from the Demon Buddha Hall. After completely replacing the Buddha Kingdom, it achieved its current status as one of the four overlords. And throughout the entire Demon World, only the Demon Buddha Hall is in a class of its own when it comes to using inner Heart Demon as clones.
The other three could never have done what he did.
He was already at the King Level before, but he certainly doesn't have Chen Qing's abilities now.
Being stuck below the King Level, yet capable of breaking through at any moment, requires an extremely powerful foundation. In the current climate, the resources of all major powers are insufficient to even begin to allocate; where could such a being possibly be created?
Kagura frowned instantly, a serious expression appearing on her face for the first time. As a calculating person, she hated situations that were unexpected. Who could this be?

"Who are you?"
Tian Heng was thrown into the turbulent current. Even though his body had been strengthened to the point of being almost as strong as that of a top-tier dragon, he was still torn apart by the chaotic elements, his flesh flying everywhere. But he had no time to care about his injuries. Instead, he looked at the person who had brought him into the turbulent current with great seriousness.
This person's strength is incredibly exaggerated; in that brief moment, his strength was almost equal to Chen Qing's just now. Where did this expert come from?
After entering the turbulent flow, the opponent's strength weakened, and Tian Heng quickly broke free. He used the opponent's force to create distance. In the chaotic elemental flow, he could not see the opponent clearly and could only rely on his senses to avoid them.
Who exactly are you?
Tian Heng was also curious; could it be Ancient Demon expert?
No way. He recognized the guy in the center of the turbulence earlier; he'd shown up before. That was the high priest of martial arts from the Ancient Demon realm. Even with his abilities, he couldn't break through to the King Level in such a short time. This guy in front of him is clearly on the same level as Chen Qing just now. Where did this guy come from?
The opponent did not respond, but instead pursued relentlessly, each move aimed to kill, leaving Tian Heng, who was already breathless, struggling to defend himself.
In the turbulent current, he dared not breathe, but breathing is an important means for martial artists to regulate their qi and blood. He had just been caught off guard by a sudden attack, which had already disrupted his breathing. Now, being in this terrifying turbulent current, he dared not breathe and could not regulate the churning qi and blood in his body. For a moment, he was powerless and extremely frustrated.
It felt like I'd choked on water and was out of breath.
And yet, under this very feeling, the person in front of him was a formidable opponent, someone he feared he might not even be able to defeat in his prime.
I'm afraid I'm really going to fail here today!
"Um?"
The emperor, watching from afar, saw things most clearly. Others were either too busy avoiding the turbulent currents to pay attention to others, or they were preoccupied with important matters. For example, Kagura was single-mindedly focused on eliminating Chen Qing. He, however, was indifferent and quite curious about this person who had suddenly appeared.
At first, he thought it was his older sister who had arrived.
Few people in the world know about his elder sister. Even King Xiang, who cooperated with him, was unaware of her existence. She can be considered one of the few hidden masters. Although he hadn't fought with her for a long time, he was certain of his feelings over the years that his elder sister was now no weaker than him.
But the shadowy figure wasn't her eldest sister.
He couldn't see who it was. It wasn't that he couldn't see the other person's movements; although the guy was fast, he wasn't so fast that he couldn't see him clearly. But his face...
It was pitch black, and the facial features resembled a pool of black and white water. It wasn't a face at all; it was a Taiji symbol.
Not human?
The emperor frowned. Could it be some kind of mechanical puppet?
Why is it taking so long for such a powerful mechanical puppet to appear?
Moreover, could a puppet really achieve that level of skill and technique?
It is a person
The emperor narrowed his eyes. He could sense that the other party's aura was genuine; it was the aura of a martial artist, the aura forged in a sea of corpses and blood. No matter how intricate a wooden puppet was, it couldn't produce such an effect. But who was that?
The information the Black Queen gave her was true. There are very few people in the world who can have King Level abilities. Even King Chujiang can only release King Level power in specific spiritual places. Currently, besides herself and her elder sister, the only one who can do what Chen Qing did is Kagura, who was reincarnated with the Asura Body!
Did I miss someone?

"Don't look around, form ranks!!"
The deputy general's roar echoed throughout the assembly point, and the soldiers who rushed over displayed astonishing military discipline. In just a few breaths, the more than 20,000 surviving soldiers quickly formed a battle formation, their blood and qi surging forth, causing the Four Saints Guard who were chasing them on the outside to dare not approach for a moment!
The lieutenant looked at the soldiers, his heart filled with conflicting emotions.
The 30,000 elite troops were the Laoda's hard work. These were all old brothers who had followed the Laoda all the way across the country. They hadn't lost much during the warlord wars, but unexpectedly, a third of them were gone in the blink of an eye after arriving here!
That's not the key point. The key point is, what was that thing just now? It slammed the Laoda into that turbulent current in one go. He couldn't even see its shadow clearly. With that speed and that force, the Laoda is probably in grave danger.
He suddenly felt that his Laoda's choice this time might not necessarily be the right one.
Unlike his old brothers who were blinded by greed, he was the kind of guy who was loyal to the Laoda to the death. But deep down, he still thought that it might have been better for the Laoda to agree to take over Jiangnan. Of course, the Laoda's choice to uphold morality was also a good one, but he felt that bringing his brothers to rescue Chen Qing was still a bit risky.
If they stayed in Tong Pass and let Xu Hu come to their rescue, they could remain neutral and watch from the sidelines. If Xu Hu succeeded, it wouldn't matter much, since Xu Hu was already the number one soldier in the Jiangnan, and the Fighter Army's status had always been that high. No matter how much merit he made, it couldn't surpass Chen Qing's.
If we let him come to rescue Chen Qing, and he succeeds, we'll be fine and still hold the position of Lao'er in Jiangnan. If he fails, we'll be the strongest military force in Jiangnan, and the Laoda can legally inherit Jiangnan!
I really don't know what the Laoda was thinking, choosing to lead the team to rescue people and leaving the best opportunity to Xu Hu!
Now look what's happened. So many of our brothers have died or been injured as soon as we arrived. Our Laoda is probably in grave danger as well.
What should I do?
The deputy general was in a dilemma. With the army's formation, there was still a chance if they retreated now. All the famous deputy generals had died at Tong Pass. He was the most prestigious general in the West Sea Army. If he could lead this army back, could he inherit the Laoda position?
For a moment, many thoughts raced through the deputy general's mind.
"General, what do we do now?"
After the troops assembled, the captain in charge of the troops, seeing that he hadn't made a move yet, hurriedly asked.
"Don't move. Maintain formation," the lieutenant commanded calmly.
The surrounding debris hasn't been put back together yet, so even if we wanted to save the Laoda, we couldn't. We can only wait until the surrounding environment returns to normal before making any further plans.
If the Laoda dies, I will immediately lead the army to retreat; if the Laoda is still alive, then...
So what?
A seductive voice suddenly appeared in the lieutenant's ears, instantly stirring his heart.
who?
