Title: Shun, The First Devil General
....
The eyes of everyone gleamed with interest. The first general has sat in this position for many years and there has never been anyone who could touch his rank at all. He is the first general, the eternal first general.
As for Shun, his domineering actions cleansed the third palace with blood. Not long after he entered the sect, he took over the third-ranked general position after killing Zonn.
The clash of these two supremes, how would it not attract attention from others? Even the rarely seen princess has also personally came here to watch the battle. She didn't appear during the devil ranking battles but was actually here to watch the fight between the first devil general and Shun.
On the battlefield, the first general was clad in dark golden armor, resembling a king of the world. His entire body was immersed in his law energy, as though his body itself has already transformed into laws. He was the sovereign of this entire domain.
"I really want to see how you can fight against me." The first general snorted coldly.
With a wave of his hand, a terrifying windstorm formed, capable of all-out annihilation.
That space was his domain, and his will, was the deciding factor that lorded over everything. At this instant, all the war chariots rushed towards Shun, as the gleaming light radiating from them was so blinding that it caused everyone to shield their eyes.
Too terrifying, such an attack was simply invincible. The eyes of the spectators narrowed as they stared in Shun's direction. Would he be able to block such an attack?
"RUMBLE!"
From Shun's body, law energy frenziedly erupted forth. His perfect chakra sea appeared, shimmering with boundless law energies, as countless runic characters manifested in the air around him, transforming into beams of light that shot towards the war chariots.
Only to see a wave of destructive might leveling everything. His body, was his domain. Shun similarly has grasped King might.
No. In a way, Shun had grasped all forms of Elemental law domain and incorporated them into an illusory complete world where is will is the world's will.
That, in addition to his unparalleled physique, made it impossible for the first devil general to destroy his body, no matter how strong he was. As long as he was still using the power at the level. Perhaps only an actual King could really pose a threat to him.
On the battlefield, if one wanted to use a word to describe the current scenario, the word would be gorgeous, and not tyrannical.
The countless number of chariots slammed into Shun, exploding to pieces, erupting forth with devilish light.
"Now, have you seen it for yourself? How can a mere you break the defense of my body?" Shun's long hair fluttered in the wind as he spoke, exuding incomparable arrogance. He then soared up into the air, his Hand manifesting a countless number of seals which then congregated together to form a dragon projection which rushed towards the first devil general.
"His innate techniques are all so powerful, and his attacking strength is simply unbelievable." These other generals weren't boorish fools. They naturally could also feel how tyrannical the power of Shun's techniques were. Also, his chakra sea could be said to be perfect, his body were all extremely outstanding as well.
The first general roared as a golden spear shot out from his chariot, expanding in size to become a great devil spear, aiming for the divine dragon. When it stabbed into the dragon, boundless destructive might erupted forth instantly as the two attacks cancelled each other out completely.
"The first general is truly powerful. With that single strike, devil might filled the sky. His golden spear is akin to the spear of a king." The hearts of the spectators trembled in shock from the might of that single strike.
"BOOM!"
Only to see the first general stretching both his hands out at the next moment. Instantly, boundless black lightning fell from the sky. His gaze was terrifying to the extreme as he aimed for Shun.
At this moment, the countless golden-armored war chariots of darkness were like bolts of lightning, all blasting into Shun with unblockable might.
At this moment, the crowd trembled even more intensely from feeling the power of that attack. All the chariots exploded on Shun's body, causing him to retreat unceasingly as his body trembled from the impact.
The first general was the first general after all and has lived for thousands of years with chakra nearing the king's level. His strength towered up into the sky, nobody could block him.
A strange light gleamed in the princess' eyes as she stared at the battlefield.
Lia was paying attention as well. She was thinking that could it be that ultimately, Shun still wouldn't be able to defeat the first general?"
"Are you even powerful enough?" The first general hollered.
"ROAR!"
A starting thunderous roar rang out. This roar was the golden-armored army of the first general roaring together in unison. Their aura was extremely terrifying, causing waves of power to roll all around.
Shun snorted. He then stood up straight once more under the stunned gazes of the crowd. Was this fellow a god or an actual devil? How could his physique be so strong to this extent?
This wasn't something like a domain formed by the trace of Kings might but rather, it was that the fleshly defense of his body has already reached a certain tier in terms of strength.
"Only then would things be interesting." A smile appeared on Shun's face as he stared at the first general. As the sound of his voice faded, the hearts of everyone shuddered again.
Could it be that this fellow still held some cards back? He could grow even stronger?
"BOOM, BOOM, BOOM…!"
At this moment, Shun instantly transformed, his body akin to that of fiendgods, horns grew from his head and wings sprouted from his back. Stepping out, he opened his mouth and directly muttered words of truth.
"Kill!"
Shun infused all his newly acquired killing intent into the words while magnifying it with chakra.
As he spoke, a seal character for the word 'kill,' manifested and shot towards the first general with the palm following behind.
The sky changed colors as the atmosphere trembled. The first general stepped out once more and with a roar of rage, his devil-armored war chariots were like thunderbolts that descended from the sky.
However, right now Shun was like a true buddha. Countless seal characters circulated around him, rushing out to collide with the war chariots, as the thunderous sound from the impact shook the heavens and earth.
He determinedly stepped forward, walking towards the first general.
"Simply an indestructible body." The crowd marveled as they saw the destructive might exploding in Shun's surroundings.
"BOOM!"
A fearsome chakra energy gushed forth as a sword materialized in Shun's hand. Many different kinds of energy circulated around the tip of the sword, there was supreme force, demon force, god force, indomitable sword energy, suppression force, etc. It was the epitome of destruction.
{Use your imagination there. I just put words together to make it sound threatening}👆
This strike was further augmented with the divine glow from God's Hand. A huge demon phantom also revolved around it, and when those attacks from the first general got into the vicinity of the sword, all of them would be absorbed within a terrifying vortex.
"Bzz!"
In the next moment, Sword transformed into a great bird, shooting past everything, through the destructive light, through the overwhelming pressure, appearing before the first general.
His sword smashed, with enough force to shake the entire palace, manifesting a fearsome vortex of destruction where the howls of demons could be heard within, intending to use it to suppress everything.
This sword was indomitable, there was nothing it cannot destroy.
The king spear appeared. Right now, the entirety of energy in the first general's body gathered onto the long spear and stabbed outwards in a direct clash with Shun.
The two collided as a beam of destructive light destroyed everything in their surroundings. The spectators couldn't see clearly at all. The aftershock from the impact even blocked spiritual and divine senses. They only saw a huge burst of light.
This burst of light only lasted for an instant. The clash of two streams of destruction was oppressive, but the victor was instantly determined.
After a deafening explosion, a huge crater opened up in the ground while a figure laid there. The golden armor on his body crumbled apart as bloody wounds could be seen all over him.
In the air, a man stood there. His aura fluctuated, and he resembled a god of battle, unexcelled in this world.
The man in the air was Shun, the third-ranked general Shun.
He is then the true battle god, a devil god.
From today onwards, from now onwards, he was no longer the third general. He is the first-ranked general.
The undefeated first general was defeated in battle today.
Silence bore down on everyone in the area. The troops in the residence of the first general were silent as well. Their invincible general, the master of this residence, was defeated by someone today.
The legend, was destroyed.
The invincible legend, was rewritten.
And as for the person who rewrote it, he was currently standing in the air. He just entered the Valley but was already so powerful that he take the position of the first-ranked general.
His name was Shun and when the other generals gazed at him at this instant, fear and trepidation, as well as respect could be seen in their eyes.
Strength would always garner respect, as well as fear.
"Hu…" Juyu's tensed heart finally relaxed as she let out a breath she held in. Her state of heart still wasn't calm yet, waves of shock were surfing forth with great momentum.
Never in her wildest dreams did she expect that Shun could really defeat the first devil general.
Lia was speechless. Right now, her heart was numb.
This man was once her protector…
The third princess stood in the air as her beautiful eyes were fixed on Shun, gleaming with a brilliant light. That final strike of his contained an overwhelmingly strong aura, a fusion of many types of energy, erupted forth from the tip of his sword. One could say that that strike had the power to even slay gods and devils.
"Cough, cough." The sound of coughing broke the silence. The first general stood up, his countenance was pale as he lowered his head. All of his pride and arrogance was shattered by the result of this battle.
"From today onwards, I will quit my position as the general and will leave the sect." The first general spoke in a low voice, his voice dripping with disappointment and sadness.
"Cang." At this moment, the third princess walked over and stared at the first devil general.
"As someone on the devil path, have you not seen through the false sense of pride in victory as well as the shame of defeat? Given how vast the Myriad Islands are, there would always be people stronger than you. Don't blind your own eyes, this battle didn't cause you any disadvantages and made you gain something else instead. Earlier, I've already spoken to my father that the loser of this battle would no longer hold the position of a general, he would become an imperial bodyguard instead. Ex first general Cang, are you willing to bring your crack troops to help me guard my residence?"
The third princess spoke. The first general inclined his head and stared at the princess. There was no excitement on his face, only a desolate loneliness.
Guarding the princess' residence?
If he nods his head, from now on his relationship with the princess would be that of a master and servant, further increasing the distance between them. However, what qualifications does he still have to pursue the princess?
Staring at the princess eyes, the first general Cang replied, "Since princess has spoken, I will agree to it."
The first general agreed.
Even the third princess herself was somewhat surprised by this. After which, she nodded and smiled. She then turned to Shun, "Shun, from now on, you are the first-ranked general."
Shun smiled at the princess. He could feel the hidden bitterness in her eyes and couldn't help but to comment silently at how cunning this devil female was.
"I pay my respects to the first general." Juyu bowed. At this instant, the other generals all looked at each other in dismay before all of them bowed to Shun, "We pay our respects to the first general."
The nearby regiments of troops also bowed and echoed. Not long ago, such voices rang out once in the third-ranked palace. And now, the same voices rang out in the first-ranked palace, shaking the entire Blackstone Valley!
Shun turned his gaze towards everyone, glancing at the generals, and the troops, as the hint of a smile could be seen in his eyes.
This was strength. In the Myraid islands, only with sufficient strength could one make these people lower their heads and submit.
He understood that only now did he truly ascend to a position of importance in the Valley. It would smoothen his path for him to do things in the future.
"Everyone there's no need to be polite. From now on, everyone will work hard together with me, to make our Valley even more prosperous." Shun laughed. The third princess rolled her eyes at him, what a hypocritical fellow.
"This matter has come to an end. Cang, you can bring your men and follow me." The third princess spoke. The ex first general Cang cast a deep glance at Shun before bringing away some of his loyal soldiers and guards with him, leaving together with the princess.
"Princess, have a safe trip back." Shun respectfully stated, staring at the third princess' back.
"Hmph." A cold voice rang out in Shun's mind. This was only transmitted to him alone, and such a voice transmission was truly unusual!
