Chapter 208

Time passes swiftly, like a flick of the fingers.

As the Qingyang Immortal Nation consolidated its turbulent forces through both power and enticement, the powerhouses of two major factions arrived at the doorstep.

In the wilderness, an astonishing aura permeated the air as a divine boat traversed the void, followed closely by a golden chariot tearing through space, while countless cultivators crossed the vast mountains and rivers to converge.

On the divine boat, a middle-aged man in a purple robe stood with his hands behind his back, his dignified face expressionless, his eyes gazing imperiously at the city dominating the land ahead.

"The Qingyang Immortal Nation built eighteen cities to resist the Wuxian Realm. This city should be the first city mentioned in the intelligence, guarded by Gu Fang, one of the elders of the immortal nation."

"It is said that he possesses the Overlord Body, once concealed his identity to be valued by the Feng Family, and even the Feng Family intended to recruit him by marriage."

"Unfortunately, the Feng Family did not expect that the carefully cultivated Overlord Body was actually a cultivator from a foreign tribe. What a joke!"

The middle-aged man in the purple robe spoke indifferently, his words filled with mockery towards the Feng Family.

The Ji Family and the Feng Family, both emperor clans, had a long history of grievances. As a powerhouse of the Ji Family, he naturally took pleasure in the Feng Family's defeat.

Behind him, an elder spoke slowly, "The Overlord Body is extraordinarily powerful, and in the past, Gu Tiangang's fall was related to it."

"This battle is not ordinary, Elder Ji must not be careless."

Elder Ji, the middle-aged man in the purple robe, sneered, "The mere Qingyang Immortal Nation is not worth mentioning. The idea that a single city could block my Ji Family is laughable."

"Even if the Shuiyu Dynasty remains inactive, my Ji Family alone can flatten it."

Ji Qian's arrogance was not without reason. An emperor-level force has a profound foundation, far beyond the reach of other forces.

Although the Qingyang Immortal Nation is strong, it lacks the foundation of an emperor, so the Ji Family has nothing to fear.

Furthermore, even if the Qingyang Immortal Nation had hidden emperor-level foundations, this battle was not solely for the Ji Family to fight.

Therefore, from any angle, the Qingyang Immortal Nation had no chance of victory.

As they conversed, Ji Qian's gaze turned to the other side of the void, where a golden chariot came into view, a symbol of the Shuiyu Dynasty.

...

"They have arrived!"

On the wall of the first city, Gu Fang stared into the distant wilderness, where a large number of cultivators had appeared in his sight, with the divine boat and the golden chariot exuding a terrifying aura, giving him a strong sense of crisis.

In an instant, the entire city was filled with the sound of war horns, and the strong practitioners of the Qingyang Immortal Nation rose into the sky, while the army inside the city quickly assembled.

Before long, the Wuxian Realm's army halted ten miles outside the city. From the divine boat, Ji Qian stepped into the void, looking down at the city with indifferent eyes.

"Mere foreign tribes, attempting to occupy the ancient desolation, are unforgivable! I grant you a chance to live: those above the True Human level should end their own lives, and I might spare the others."

"Otherwise, if I take action myself, none of you will survive!"

As Ji Qian's words fell, a terrifying force erupted from the first city. Gu Fang leaped into the air, throwing a punch directly at Ji Qian.

"Silence!"

"Impudent—"

Ji Qian's face contorted with rage, not expecting the Qingyang Immortal Nation to strike first.

Faced with the incoming punch, the Ji Family elder showed no fear, sweeping his palm across the void, and a tremendous force exploded.

"Boom!"

As the two forces collided, the void instantly collapsed.

In that moment of contact, Ji Qian felt Gu Fang's power like an abyss, and although he was a Perfected True Lord, he seemed unable to resist it.

Immediately, the fist's sharp force was unstoppable, and the terrifying aura changed Ji Qian's expression.

In an instant, protective qi surged around Ji Qian, enveloping his entire body.

However, the qi shattered, and Ji Qian's body shook as he spat blood and fell from the void.

This scene shocked the Ji Family powerhouses.

Ji Qian was one of the top-ranked among the Ji Family powerhouses, which was why he led the team.

No one expected that someone as strong as Ji Qian would be defeated by Gu Fang in one move, and everyone's eyes focused on the figure in the void, full of astonishment.

"The Overlord Body indeed possesses extraordinary power!"

A cold voice sounded as a mystical aura surged from the golden chariot. A woman wearing a phoenix crown and a cloud robe gracefully stepped forward, arriving in front of Gu Fang in an instant.

The woman's demeanor was elegant, her long, slender eyebrows framing deep eyes that seemed to penetrate one's soul.

"Who are you?"

"I am Shui Yun."

The woman in the cloud robe spoke with cold detachment.

"The Overlord Body has the potential of an emperor. It would be a pity to perish here. If you are willing to accept the restraint of my Shuiyu Dynasty, you may still have a chance to live."

"In this golden age, if you protect me, when I become an emperor, I will allow you to achieve quasi-emperor status."

Implanting restraints! Protecting!

Shui Yun's words were nothing short of a joke to Gu Fang, who couldn't help but laugh.

This laughter made Shui Yun's cold face show a trace of displeasure, and her eyes grew colder.

"Do you know my identity? I am the imperial daughter of the Shuiyu Dynasty, destined to prove the Dao and become an emperor. It is your honor to protect me. Without the Overlord Body, how could you qualify to submit to my Shuiyu Dynasty?"

"The Qingyang Immortal Nation is doomed to fall, an unchangeable fate."

"In consideration of the Overlord Divine Body, I give you a chance to live, do not be ungrateful!"

Shui Yun's words carried an air of charity, as if giving the other party a chance to submit was a great honor.

"If you want me to submit, let's see if you have the strength!"

Gu Fang was unwilling to waste more words with Shui Yun. She seemed somewhat delusional, and further conversation was pointless.

With that, Gu Fang suddenly attacked, his Overlord Divine Body's power soaring to the extreme, his blood energy surging into the sky, condensing into a towering figure in the void, the terrifying power shattering the space, causing Shui Yun's face to change dramatically.

"Boom!"

Shui Yun waved her jade hand, and as the space shattered, a monstrous force surged, causing her to groan as she fell from the void.

After defeating Shui Yun, Gu Fang did not stop. He took a step forward, his blood energy blazing like a furnace illuminating the sky, intending to end his opponent completely on the spot.

As Gu Fang moved, the other forces also launched their assault on the first city.

In an instant, the two forces were locked in an endless slaughter.
