I, Thanks To My Unlimited Investment, Am Admired By All Races
Chapter 353: Your Dynasty Deserve to Be Destroyed
"You demon, how arrogant!"
"You're courting death!"
Several furious shouts rang out.
High in the sky, two Saints stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with the Jiang Clan Patriarch as they charged toward the Otherworldly Demon.
At their level, they already deeply understood how terrifying such creatures were.
No one was arrogant enough to believe they could defeat an Otherworldly Demon alone while at the same cultivation realm.
To be safe, joining forces was the wisest option.
In an instant, the three human Saints and the Otherworldly Demon Saint clashed together.
The aftermath of their battle was utterly world-destroying.
The four figures directly vanished into the void itself, even shattering the stars in the heavens above.
For a time, killing intent surged like raging tides.
Terrifying fluctuations spread across tens of thousands of li like an unfathomable ocean.
Below, within the imperial city, countless armies continued pouring through the crack in the formation.
However, because the opening was too narrow, it was impossible for everyone to rush in at once.
As a result, the experts of the Great Chu Dynasty managed to forcibly hold them back for the moment.
During this brief stalemate, the Great Chu Dynasty reacted extremely quickly.
Countless experts shot into the sky.
Many of them joined the battlefield immediately upon appearing.
Yet quite a few others surrendered the instant they revealed themselves.
In the past, they had wanted to defect, but never had the opportunity.
Now that the formation had been breached, if they still failed to seize the chance, it would soon be too late.
At this point, anyone with eyes could see that the destruction of the Great Chu Dynasty was only a matter of time.
After all, colluding with Otherworldly Demons was a matter of principle.
Not only in the Desolate Ancient Continent, but even in other continents, such actions would bring immediate annihilation.
Buzz—!
A great humming sound spread outward.
From the depths of the Great Chu Dynasty, a peak Sacred Weapon awakened, radiating terrifying might that pierced through the distance.
Everyone immediately understood that the Great Chu Dynasty was finally revealing its true foundations.
Behind the Sacred Weapon, a white jade ruler appeared, stretching across heaven and earth, blooming with dazzling brilliance that illuminated tens of thousands of li across the void.
The light was so intense that people scarcely dared look directly at it.
The aura leaking from it made everyone's hearts tremble.
"A Saint King!"
Someone cried out in shock.
The ancestor who founded the Great Chu Dynasty had once been a Saint King.
If nothing unexpected had occurred, then this weapon was very likely the treasure left behind by that ancestor.
"There shouldn't still be a Saint King alive within the Great Chu Dynasty… right?" Someone muttered.
The aura emanating from the Saint King weapon was simply too powerful, making people suspect that its owner might still be alive.
In the next instant, a withered hand reached out from within one of the great halls.
Its owner was an elderly man with sparse hair and an extremely hunched body.
His blood energy had decayed to an extreme degree, yet the pressure emanating from him was enough to make no one dare underestimate him.
Clearly, he too was a Saint King!
The moment the old man appeared, he grasped the jade ruler and swept it downward through the air.
It was as though heaven and earth were collapsing.
Countless people felt as if the apocalypse itself had arrived.
"There really is a Saint King!"
"That face looks familiar… He seems to be the founder of the Great Chu Dynasty!"
"Impossible! So many years have passed. Even Emperors would have died by now—how could he still be alive?"
…
Countless people were struck dumb with shock.
The Great Chu Dynasty had hidden itself too deeply.
Many knew they possessed immense foundations, but no one imagined they were this terrifying.
An ancient Saint King had survived all the way into the present era.
"Since the era of this old man, no one has ever dared attack my Great Chu Dynasty as you have today."
"All of you shall pay for this in blood!"
The aged voice echoed throughout heaven and earth.
The temperature in the void plummeted countless degrees.
In mere moments, snowflakes began drifting down from the sky, as though the old man's words themselves had stirred the laws of heaven and earth—changing the very climate with his emotions alone.
"The current Divine Emperor of your Great Chu Dynasty colluded with the Otherworldly Demons. Your dynasty deserves to be destroyed," Li Xun spoke calmly.
"Oh?"
The old man showed little concern and let out a cold laugh.
"This is the internal affair of the Great Chu Dynasty. It is not the place of outsiders to point fingers—much less a mere junior like you!"
"Huang Xi."
Li Xun lost interest in speaking further and casually said:
"Kill him."
"Yes, Master!" Huang Xi answered respectfully.
Her robes fluttered as she stepped forward.
With a single step, she arrived before the old man.
Raising her delicate hand, she engaged him in battle.
The two were incomparably powerful.
In the blink of an eye, they had already exchanged hundreds upon thousands of moves.
Their speed was so extreme that the battlefield instantly spread across countless tens of thousands of li.
With every gesture, entire mountain ranges were seized and hurled about before being smashed into powder.
"Kill Li Xun first!"
At that moment, many on the Great Chu Dynasty's side noticed that Huang Xi had left Li Xun's side.
A gleam immediately appeared in the eyes of numerous experts as they sensed an opportunity.
After all, it was Li Xun who had issued the call to arms.
A large portion of the forces gathered here had come precisely to give Li Xun face.
Therefore, many believed that if Li Xun were killed, even if it could not force these armies to retreat, it would at least deal a severe blow to their morale.
"Three Saints!"
Terrified cries sounded from the distance as terrifying fluctuations spread outward.
The Great Chu Dynasty revealed even more of its hidden foundations.
Three dreadful figures stepped out from different palaces.
Two of them were human.
The third, although appearing human on the outside, possessed an aura completely unlike that of the human race.
Instead, he resembled an Otherworldly Demon wearing a human shell.
"The Champion Marquis?"
When Li Xun saw one of the figures, he froze momentarily before quickly realizing the truth.
The real Champion Marquis had long since died.
It was even more impossible for him to have become a Saint.
If nothing unexpected had happened, then the current "Champion Marquis" had likely been possessed by an Otherworldly Demon.
The reason for doing so was simple—
It made moving among humans much more convenient.
After all, very few people would suspect that beneath a human appearance lurked an Otherworldly Demon.
"Back then, I let you escape."
"Who would have thought that in merely ten years or so, you would grow into such a grave threat?"
"Had I known this would happen, I should have buried you in that land forever!"
The Otherworldly Demon wearing the Champion Marquis's appearance stepped upward through the sky one step at a time as he spoke coldly.
