Chapter 205: Unfortunate defeat
The emperor of the Dayong Dynasty felt somewhat melancholy at this moment. As the largest power in the entire Qingyun Realm in terms of area, population, and number of cultivators, his dynasty lacked a genius like this, which made him very distressed.
"Fox spirits, the new generation is truly surpassing the old. Looking at them puts a lot of pressure on me."
The fox spirit glanced at the emperor, her tone somewhat sharp: "That's right, you really should feel the pressure. I remember you broke through almost a hundred years before me, and now, my cultivation is about to surpass yours. If you don't feel the pressure, you'll be the weakest Nascent Soul cultivator in the Azure Cloud Realm."
It must be said that being the emperor of a dynasty is a double-edged sword. Although his luck can speed up his cultivation considerably, the numerous political affairs also take up too much of his cultivation time.
Actually, the solution to this problem is quite simple: either abdicate, have the crown prince oversee the country, or appoint a powerful prime minister. As long as he sits on the throne as the retired emperor or the emperor, his fortune will not change. After relinquishing political affairs, his cultivation speed will definitely be faster than that of the fox spirit and the wandering cloud hermit.
Therefore, this is the reason why he recently wanted to abdicate. The rise of the Demon Lord has put too much pressure on him, so he can only give up his power and prepare to start cultivating properly.
At this moment, Gu Yuchuan and the Holy Son were fighting again on the field. The entire arena looked like the end of the world, and it was extremely bloody.
Several demonic beasts were already injured, and even Gu Yuchuan had blood on the corner of his mouth due to the backlash. The Holy Son was in the same situation. He no longer had that elegant and refined demeanor. He was soaked in sweat and his hair was disheveled. Both of them were fighting for real.
The Holy Son's brow furrowed slightly. This meteorite was the most powerful thing he could use right now. Although he had other tricks up his sleeve, even if he used them and won, he would still feel like he had lost. However, after thinking about the elder's teachings, he felt that victory was more important, so he decided to make his move.
"Demon King, in a normal fight, we're evenly matched, and in some ways, I think you're even slightly better. However, I have a reason why I have to win, as it concerns all my future cultivation. So, I apologize, but you won't be able to withstand my next move. But don't worry, I'll be careful not to hurt you."
Gu Yuchuan's expression became even more serious. He didn't believe the other party was talking about a "gut." The fact that the other party spoke like this meant that he could really suppress him. He immediately used his Golden Light Spell. Above his head, the pagoda formed by the Golden Light Spell protected him tightly.
He dared not underestimate his opponent in the slightest, so he used all his spells at full power, without holding back at all.
"Is this the Demon King's Earthly Fiend Divine Power? The Golden Light Mantra. It is indeed powerful. Then please, Demon King, witness my divine power! Summon the Gods!"
A vortex appeared in the sky, filled with mist and countless divine lightning bolts swirling within. An immense pressure emanated from it; had it not been without malice, this aura would have been enough to suppress them, including the two Venerables above.
The fox spirit and the emperor exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other. They had actually sensed danger from this vortex, a danger that could kill them. Could this really be something a Golden Core cultivator could do?
From within the vortex, a soldier clad in silver armor traversed space and arrived on the arena: "Heavenly Soldier Wang Yong greets the Daoist Master, obeying the imperial decree to come and share the Daoist Master's burdens."
The words "Heavenly Soldiers" made Gu Yuchuan's eyes widen. Others might not know what Heavenly Soldiers were, but he did. They were Heavenly Soldiers, the most powerful among Heavenly Soldiers and Generals! Although in his previous life, Journey to the West often featured hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, in reality, as soldiers and generals, these Heavenly Soldiers were also legitimate Celestial Immortals. Even though they were the lowest level of immortals, they were still immortals, the ultimate pursuit for cultivators like them. Judging from the Heavenly Soldiers' attitude towards him, this guy's status was clearly above that of a Heavenly Soldiers. What was his background?
Gu Yuchuan is now a horned dragon, a high-grade spirit beast, and his inherited memories also contain information about the world today.
The Immortal Realm is high above all others, encompassing the Heavenly Realm and the Earthly Immortal Realm. Its level is the Eternal Holy Realm, and it is also the only and largest world. Even the strongest beings live in the Immortal Realm.
Below that is the Spirit Realm. Below the Immortal Realm are three thousand Great Thousand Worlds, collectively known as the Spirit Realm. The strongest beings among them are also immortals. Below that are the Middle Thousand Worlds and the Lesser Thousand Worlds. In essence, there is not much difference between them. The Lesser Thousand Worlds can only accommodate cultivators below the Returning to Emptiness Realm.
The definition of a middle-thousand world is rather vague. Any world that can accommodate those at the Void Returning Realm but not immortals is called a middle-thousand world. Furthermore, a small-thousand world can be promoted to a middle-thousand world.
Their Azure Cloud Realm is a minor world. For an immortal from the Celestial Realm to treat a low-level cultivator from a minor world with such an attitude, it's clear he has an extremely powerful background.
However, this celestial soldier was also limited by the laws of the world and by the Holy Son's own cultivation level. Therefore, this celestial soldier only had the cultivation level of the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage, but in reality, his combat power was comparable to that of the Nascent Soul stage.
The Holy Son showed great respect to the heavenly soldiers: "I beg you, Immortal Master, to help me defeat the Demon King before me. Immortal Master, this Demon King follows the path of a divine beast and is a true cultivator. Our battle is merely a contest to determine who is superior, not a fight to the death. Therefore, I beg you, Immortal Master, to show mercy and not harm his very essence."
Tianbing nodded and looked at Gu Yuchuan. Gu Yuchuan felt all the hairs on his body stand on end. His subconscious was telling him to run. If the other party attacked, he would have no chance to defend himself.
This technique of summoning gods is actually somewhat similar to the art of turning beans into soldiers, only this one is more advanced. However, you can't summon gods without a strong lineage. Although it looks like an immortal is bullying Gu Yuchuan, it actually conforms to the rules of the arena battle.
The heavenly soldier didn't say anything. He could talk to the Holy Son because of the Holy Son's status, but apart from the Holy Son, everyone below, including the two high-ranking Venerables, were nothing more than chickens and dogs in his eyes, not even worthy of his glance.
The heavenly soldier also used a long spear. He only thrust forward once, and Gu Yuchuan felt that he couldn't breathe. He could only stand there and the next second, he fainted. In his dazed state, he saw the Holy Son holding the pill and running over quickly, and his good second brother was also rushing over.
