Chapter 1598 - 1546—1547
"Reporting to the general, this area has been thoroughly investigated, and no clues have been found," a voice resounded powerfully from a Supreme Strong clad in armor.
The standardized armor shimmered with a chill, the long sword at their waist, the Strong Bow crossbow on their back, and the black celestial horse below them, all unmistakably identified these individuals as the Imperial Guard under the command of the Jade Emperor.
Although they have become True Immortals, the organizational structure of the original Great Ming Divine Dynasty was not dismantled. It still retains its structure and even expanded the army significantly, as the army of the then Great Ming Divine Dynasty was not sufficient compared to the present.
This unit of Imperial Guard is a newly formed squad by the Jade Emperor, equipped with the best gear, and selected from the most powerful elite soldiers.
The benefits for this Imperial Guard are almost the best among those under the command of the Jade Emperor, where the selection criteria involved only Cultivators of the Seventh Layer of the Spiritual Realm having the opportunity to join, and even so, they could only serve as ordinary soldiers.
Only Cultivators of the Eighth Layer have the opportunity to become a Hundred Households Leader of the Imperial Guard, stepping into the Strongest Realm allows one to become a Thousand Households Leader, and to take on the position of leader of the Imperial Guard without having the strength of a Supreme Overlord is impossible, and even standard Supreme Overlords are not eligible, at least those in the Supreme Strong with Three Stars strength are.
In other words, the leader of this Imperial Guard, even without any other enhancements, is akin to a being like those of Wan Fayi, standing at the pinnacle of the Supreme Strong.
These Imperial Guards, selected from countless powerful beings, mostly tread the path of combat; although their Realms may differ, they are absolutely proficient in combat and skillful in fighting, leading among peers in the same Realm,
According to rumors, when the Jade Emperor first formed this Imperial Guard, the primary purpose was to suppress True Immortal Strong and to address the inadequacy of the combat strength of True Immortal Strong under his command.
However, these Imperial Guards, although having intervened many times, have never actually engaged with a True Immortal Strong, so whether they possess such capability is unknown.
Regardless, such an Imperial Guard is a significant force under the Jade Emperor, deterring those from the immortal sects tremendously, for even if their disciples are strong, facing such a well-trained army leads only to their slaughter.
Indeed, in this trial of Myriad Laws Realm, the Jade Emperor could not possibly deploy all the Imperial Guard, only a skilled elite squad was sent, but even as just a squad, they are sufficiently powerful to traverse the Myriad Laws Realm unimpeded.
"No clues?" the leading general frowned and coldly said, "According to the information from the Ministry Departments, one of the places where the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder stayed was here."
