War God Long Ao

Next, Shi Potian began to speak about the City of Sin.

The City of Sin.

According to Shi Potian, the City of Sin was the most evil place in all of Kyushu. It was a place filled with bloodshed and slaughter; once you entered, there was no guarantee you would ever make it out alive.

The people who went to the City of Sin were either heinous criminals hunted by the Four Great Forces and other powers, who fled there as a last resort, or they were Martial Artists with too much blood on their hands, seeking even greater thrills.

Ultimately, the City of Sin was an incredibly terrifying place.

Shi Potian's point was simple: given the city's chaotic state, if one could carve out a territory for themselves within the City of Sin, they could rapidly build up their own force.

The people in the City of Sin were all Martial Artists deeply accustomed to slaughter. Establishing a force there would be a great help in strengthening his family.

After listening, Long Ao nodded and asked, "Where is the City of Sin?"

"The Chaos Domain of the Kyushu Spirit Realm."

'The Chaos Domain?'

Long Ao seared the name into his memory. He had already made up his mind. No matter how terrifying the City of Sin might be, he would go there and establish his own force.

"Long Ao, I have other business to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. If all goes well, we'll meet again in three years. I hope you won't have disappointed me by then."

"What about the two Dragon Wolves?"

"I'm lending them to you for three years. After that, they will leave the Dragon Sect on their own."

The moment he finished speaking, Shi Potian turned and vanished without a trace.

Standing quietly on the mountain peak, Long Ao replayed his conversation with Shi Potian. He realized the man was far from ordinary, both in status and in strength. Otherwise, he never would have said what he did.

'Who exactly is Shi Potian?'

Long Ao didn't dwell on Shi Potian's identity. He knew that with his current level of strength, he wasn't qualified to know the answer.

Long Ao had a feeling that his current standing was still at the very bottom. To climb higher, he would need to become far more powerful.

Looking at the two Dragon Wolves before him, Long Ao suddenly broke into a smile.

「Ten days later.」

The Four Great Forces—the Eastern Emperor City, the West Third Level Long Family, the Southern Netherworld Mansion, and the North Piaomiao Palace—each dispatched twenty Great Venerables. This army of eighty Great Venerables, reinforced by a Realm King from the Imperial City, entered the Celestial State as a vast and mighty host, marching toward the Dragon Sect.

Everyone worried for the Dragon Sect. After all, the force dispatched by the Four Great Forces—one Realm King and eighty Great Venerables—was overwhelmingly powerful. Forget the Dragon Sect; even old, established families and sects would be unable to withstand such an assault.

The moment the army of Great Venerables set foot in the Celestial State, Long Ao received the news.

Dragon Sect, Great Hall.

"Are you all ready?"

"Sect Leader, we are all ready."

Everyone was trembling with excitement. They all knew the Sect Leader had somehow acquired two Realm Emperor Dragon Wolves. With them, resisting the army of Great Venerables would be easy; they could even take on the Four Great Forces head-on.

A Realm Emperor was at the Peak of the Void Realm. Furthermore, these two Dragon Wolves possessed Giant Dragon Blood, making their strength incomparable.

'This time, I'm going to refine eighty Great Venerable Corpse Slaves and one Realm King Corpse Slave.'

Long Ao was thrilled. With the help of the two Dragon Wolves and Long Fu's Refinement, if he could successfully annihilate all the Great Venerables and the Realm King, he could create a full eighty Great Venerable Corpse Slaves and one Realm King Corpse Slave.

What would a force like that even mean?

Long Ao was completely confident. Once he refined such a powerful Corpse Slave Army, with them, the two Dragon Wolves, and the Fire Qilin guarding the Dragon Sect and his family, he could leave without a worry in the world.

"Sect Leader, the army has arrived at our gates. What should we do?"

"Hahaha, good, they're here! All of you, head to the valley. I want you to witness the slaughter of Great Venerables and a Realm King."

Hearing this, everyone erupted in excitement. After all, not a single person present had ever witnessed the slaughter of eighty Great Venerables and a Realm King. It was the kind of spectacle they might never see again in their lifetime.

In a grand display, Long Ao didn't just allow the Sect's upper echelons to go watch the battle from the valley; he permitted everyone, from the Outer Sect Disciples and Inner Sect Disciples all the way to the Core Disciples, to attend.

Long Ao's intent was simple. He wanted everyone to witness the terrifying power of the Dragon Sect and to know that they had made the right choice in joining. Only the Dragon Sect could lead them to the Peak.

In an instant, thousands of people swarmed the areas around the valley, forming a veritable sea of onlookers.

Before the Dragon Sect.

The Imperial City's Yiyi Realm King led the eighty Great Venerables, gazing contemptuously at the Dragon Sect before them. None of them could understand why they had to go to such lengths to deal with a paltry Dragon Sect. Eighty Great Venerables and even a Realm King—it was truly making a mountain out of a molehill.

"Long Ao, cut the nonsense. Come with us, and I can spare your life."

An aura. A powerful aura. The aura of a Realm King from the Imperial City.

As a Realm King, and a supreme Elder of the exalted Imperial City, Yiyi was naturally arrogant. After all, Long Ao was merely a disciple from some ordinary Domain-level Long Family. If the Sect Leader's son hadn't been killed, and if that Sect Leader hadn't personally invited him, he would never have bothered to come.

Leading eighty Great Venerables against a tiny Dragon Sect was frankly an embarrassment, even in victory. But Yiyi knew he had no choice; after all, the Sect Leader had gone to great lengths to invite the sixty Great Venerables from the other three powers.

The immense pressure released by one Realm King and eighty Great Venerables bore down with crushing force. An ordinary Celestial Venerable would have been crushed to death by this combined pressure alone, but Long Ao was different.

Long Ao stood his ground, gazing coldly at the eighty-one men before him. He silently released Heaven and Earth's Momentum, and just like that, single-handedly withstood the combined pressure of all eighty-one experts.

What did that even mean?

The eighty-one men had assumed their combined pressure would crush Long Ao, but they never imagined that he would not only shrug it off but withstand it head-on. Feeling this new power, Yiyi exclaimed, "Heaven and Earth's Momentum! Impossible! This is impossible! How can you possess Heaven and Earth's Momentum?"

Of course, Yiyi knew exactly what Heaven and Earth's Momentum signified. That was precisely why he couldn't believe what was happening. If he weren't seeing it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that a mere Celestial Venerable could actually unleash Heaven and Earth's Momentum.

"Impossible? Nothing is impossible in this world. In a moment, I will slaughter every last one of you. Not a single person will escape. Do you believe me?"
