NOVPUBChapter 1061: Chapter 161 City Lord of Tian Duan Chapter 1061: Chapter 161 City Lord of Tian Duan The ancient ancestor of the alligator turtle expelled the deadly toxic force accumulating inside him.
He looked at the dark, sinister doorway with great apprehension in his heart.
Sealed within this doorway was a peerlessly fierce creature, filled with deadly poison, the very creature that had wounded him.
Despite his high level of cultivation, he felt powerless against this man, unsure of how to deal with him.
“This old turtle has suffered a loss. It seems he cannot overcome him.”
This battle spread throughout the entire holy city.
This man, who even the ferocious ancient alligator turtle was at a loss to handle, though his full strength remained unknown, sufficiently demonstrated his might, further solidifying the Blood Rose’s rule over the southern seventh quadrant.
“This holy city is quite lively.”
Swoosh! A divine light streaked across the sky, belonging to an ice-pure woman with an aloof demeanor.
Surprise appeared on her face as her gaze landed on Chu Yuan.
“Yun Xi, the Supreme God!”
Someone recognized the identity of this woman.
“Haha, the fairy must be amused. This is just the style of the holy city.”
Several important figures from the city, who accompanied the woman, treated her with great respect.
“Interesting,” the woman said lightly.
“Humph! I’ll let you off today!”
The ancient alligator turtle didn’t care about losing face; he had already lost it. Seeing Yun Xi, he suddenly reached her side and bent down to speak with her about something.
“All right, ancient alligator turtle, I understand your request.”
Yun Xi, the Supreme God, said.
“Okay, as per the fairy’s request!”
The face of the ancient alligator turtle twitched with veins popping, showing an expression of great pain.
“I know the origins of Yun Xi, the Supreme God. She is a direct disciple of the City Lord of Heavenly Break, a very influential figure!”
Blood Rose, looking at Yun Xi, the Supreme God, also displayed a challenging tone, “If I had sufficient resources supplied, I would have ascended to Supreme God long ago.”
“City Lord of Heavenly Break!” Chu Yuan’s eyes were fierce: “The strongest in the Heavenly Break Mountains!”
“The City Lord of Heavenly Break is extremely powerful, having dominated endless eras. His cultivation cannot simply be described as supreme; he has comprehended the essence of the Heavenly Dao. In the future, he might even become a Heavenly Dao Deity!”
Blood Rose was well aware that while ascending to Supreme God was within her grasp, reaching the Heavenly Dao Deity was an elusive dream.
The Heavenly Dao Deity was among the strongest entities in all thirty-three heavens.
“Heavenly Dao Deity,”
Chu Yuan pondered.
He was not aware of the specific mana of the Heavenly Dao Deity.
Yet the system gave him the feeling that, akin to the all-powerful Heavenly Dao fate, it was an even more terrifying power, one that there was almost nothing it couldn’t do.
“Should we leave the holy city now?”
Blood Rose asked.
“No, we won’t leave just yet, but we can pretend that I am temporarily not here. Only I can handle the cunning and venomous ancient alligator turtle,”
Chu Yuan said.
At that moment, Yun Xi, the Supreme God, seemed to have struck a deal with the ancient alligator turtle and left the holy city.
“Seeing the pained expression on the ancient alligator turtle’s face, it seems he has suffered a great loss, shedding much blood,”
As Yun Xi, the Supreme God, departed, the accompanying supremes’ expressions gradually turned cold.
“Humph! Using Divine Bloodstones to heavily extort wealth from us, every auction is like viciously sucking our blood. In truth, if we talk about their plain value, Divine Bloodstones are nowhere near so precious.”
A middle-aged man said.
“Given the situation, there’s nothing we can do. Only a few powers can mine in the Ancient Blood Mine of Mount Tian, and only Tian City can obtain a significant amount of the ore because they’re the ones gripping the neck. What can you do?”
“There’s no choice. The Lord of Tian City exists as a half of the Heavenly Dao, owning half of Mount Tian. He keeps the holy city here, and his inaction is precisely meant to bleed us dry, forcing us to pay protection fees.”
…
Time flew, and two months went by.
“It’s been a while since he was seen. He must have left by now!”
Outside the southern sector seven, the old ancestor War God suddenly returned.
He struck immediately and his Supreme Divine Power instantly enveloped the entire southern sector seven in a move meant to flatten it in revenge for the humiliation he had suffered before.
He wanted to show how terrifying the wrath of a ruthless, unscrupulous pillager like himself could be.
“War God, did you think I didn’t exist?”
But what War God didn’t expect was that Chu Yuan hadn’t left yet. He spread his massive hand, protecting the entirety of the southern sector seven.
“What’s going on?”
War God was perplexed, as he hadn’t sensed this man’s presence in his investigations. Where had he come from?
But in reality, Chu Yuan had concealed his own fluctuations using the Void Gate, eternally exiling himself.
“Boy, you’re ruthless!”
Just as Chu Yuan was about to summon the Gate of Curses again, War God, clenching his teeth in frustration, didn’t linger and left abruptly.
“This old crocodile, courting death!”
Blood Rose was grinding her teeth too—southern sector seven was Chu Yuan’s territory given to her, and she viciously said, “Once I break through to the Supreme level, I will sever his head and strip his shell and crush it beneath my feet!”
“I await you at the Supreme level.”
Chu Yuan said, “War God hasn’t given up so easily. Nor do I have the time to keep playing with him here, but when I return to the empire, I will leave my aura here in the southern sector seven as a deterrent, ensuring he doesn’t dare to strike at will for a few years.”
He was guessing War God’s thoughts.
He wouldn’t act now, likely hiding in the shadows, waiting for Chu Yuan to let his guard down to strike a deadly blow.
This was the most dangerous time.
“Let’s go, return to the empire with me.”
Chu Yuan would not keep dragging this out with War God here in the holy city, some of his base affairs here were trivial, best left just watched over by some of his staff.
“It’s finally time to go to the Divine Martial Dynasty.”
Blood Rose was also looking forward to it.
The divine vessel breached the vast multitudes, swiftly heading toward the Divine Martial Dynasty.
For a Sovereign, traveling from the holy city to the Divine Martial Dynasty might take decades, but the divine vessel only took a few months.
“Divine Martial Dynasty!”
Upon entering the territory of the Divine Martial Dynasty, Blood Rose immediately felt the overwhelming fate of the dynasty—a boundless faith. She sensed all the people’s profound reverence and respect for the Emperor of the Divine Martial Dynasty.
“These warships!”
The most unique sight within the empire was the silver-white dimensional warships in transit.
Her eyes sparkled immediately; these warships were no less impressive than the Blood Rose Vessel that she had painstakingly forged during her trials.
“Are these standard issue warships of the dynasty?” Blood Rose curiously asked, “If my raiding team could be equipped with these ships, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.”
“The raiding team will be equipped with the warships of the Divine Martial Dynasty in the future. However, they are no longer raiders, but my pioneers,” Chu Yuan mysterially declared.
The raiding team was adept at venturing into various dangerous places and not suited for frontal assaults by large forces, ideal for pioneering.
“I pay my respects to Your Majesty!”
Upon Chu Yuan’s return, War God promptly appeared and upon seeing Blood Rose, his face underwent a subtle change, detecting the unusual relationship between her and His Majesty.
“War God, very good, in my absence, you have already advanced to the second tier of the Sovereign level. Keep progress with resources, and the third tier won’t be far off.”
Chu Yuan, seeing War God’s improved cultivation, nodded approvingly.
