Chapter 3379 Troops March to the Northern Star Region
Seven fallen immortals perished.
To silence the outside world.
same.
Within the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, many cultivators were also shocked and bewildered.
They were shocked by Shen Changqing's strength, but even more shocked by Yan Wuxiang's strength.
During the battle at Xuanqing Immortal Sect, only a few high-ranking members of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land truly went to the scene; the other cultivators were not aware of the details of that battle.
not to mention.
In that battle.
Yan Wuxiang's performance was not particularly outstanding either.
All eyes were drawn to the battle between Shen Changqing and Venerable Xuanqing; who would care about a mere Immortal Emperor?
But until now.
The battle with Bei Chenyuan.
The entire Heavenly Demon Holy Land suddenly realized that the strength of this Vice Holy Lord had grown to such an extent without them even noticing.
Such strength.
This startled all the other Celestial Emperors.
but.
Other monks also had different opinions.
such as.
Many high-ranking members of the Yan family.
Now that they have truly witnessed Shen Changqing's strength, these senior members of the Yan family have realized how ridiculous their initial thoughts were.
Yan Wuxiang, who had broken through to the half-saint level, and Bei Chenyuan, whom he had failed to kill even with all his might, could not last more than a few rounds against Shen Changqing before being killed on the spot.
The gap in strength is so vast that it inspires despair.
Thinking back to how they had initially wanted to rely on Yan Wuxiang's strength to overthrow Shen Changqing's rule and seize the position of Heavenly Demon Saint Lord.
The backs of these high-ranking members of the Yan family were soaked with cold sweat.
Almost.
The Yan family is about to be plunged into utter ruin.
But luckily.
The Yan family didn't do much.
otherwise.
Nowadays, it's likely that the Yan family no longer exists in the Heavenly Demon Holy Land.
……
"Yan Wuxiang—"
On Purple Flame Peak, Gu Zhou's expression was solemn, and he was also somewhat horrified.
Yan Wuxiang's strength was something even he found somewhat unbelievable.
Gu Zhou understood perfectly.
The opponent's strength was at most similar to his own, or even three points weaker.
result.
This battle.
But it completely changed Gu Zhou's understanding.
Among the seven fallen immortals, Bei Chenyuan was the most powerful. Even just the aura he exuded made Gu Zhou secretly tremble.
If he were to face such a being, Gu Zhou would have no confidence in his ability to resist.
Do not--
Let alone resist.
They don't even have the right to fight.
Both are beings at the Immortal Emperor realm.
Bei Chenyuan's strength has reached the pinnacle of the Immortal Emperor realm, and he may even have broken through the limits of the Immortal Emperor realm, stepping halfway into a higher level.
Even so, the other party was no match for Yan Wuxiang.
This can be seen.
Just how powerful is Yan Wuxiang?
This promotion put immense pressure on Gu Zhou.
Simultaneously.
He was also somewhat surprised and doubtful.
After all, it was no wonder that Yan Wuxiang's strength had broken through to this level in such a short time.
Once this doubt arose, it could no longer be suppressed.
Immediately.
Gu Zhou left Ziyan Peak and drifted towards the main peak.
……
"Meet the Holy Lord!"
"Senior Brother Gu has arrived."
Shen Changqing smiled faintly.
It seems that he had anticipated Gu Zhou's arrival.
See this.
Gu Zhou bowed respectfully, then asked, "There is something I would like to ask the Holy Lord!"
"What Senior Brother Gu is saying must be related to Yan Wuxiang, right?"
"good."
Gu Zhou nodded calmly.
His purpose in coming here was to find out the reason.
Shen Changqing glanced at him and said calmly, "Actually, this is not a secret. Yan Wuxiang was able to break through because he took the Saintly Immortal Pill."
"The Elixir of Sainthood—"
Gu Zhou's expression changed drastically when he heard these words.
Subsequently.
All the doubts.
At this moment, everything becomes clear and enlightening.
If it were the Elixir of Immortality, then it would be understandable.
Although Gu Zhou only had a vague understanding of these legendary heaven-defying pills, he knew that taking such pills could allow a cultivator to step into the semi-saint realm.
"So, Vice Holy Lord Yan has already attained immortality?"
"The Saintly Elixir can allow an Immortal Emperor to directly break through to the Half-Saint Realm. Yan Wuxiang has indeed stepped into the Realm of Longevity."
Shen Changqing nodded.
Seeing Gu Zhou's expression, he paused for a moment, then spoke again.
"However, the Elixir of Sainthood also has a drawback: after taking it, one will never make any further progress in life and will remain in that realm for all eternity."
Furthermore, cultivators who break through by taking such pills are among the weakest in the semi-saint realm because they do not need to undergo the Longevity Tribulation or the Five Decays of Heaven and Man.
This is the fundamental reason why Yan Wuxiang was still unable to kill the fallen immortal, even though the immortal was clearly at the Immortal Emperor realm!
As soon as these words came out.
Gu Zhou's expression immediately relaxed.
If Shen Changqing hadn't mentioned it himself, he wouldn't have known that the Sainthood Pill had such drawbacks.
at this time.
Shen Changqing continued, "When the Saintly Immortal Pill was first produced, there were three. I was fortunate enough to obtain one, another fell into the hands of the Xuanqing Immortal Sect, and the whereabouts of the third is unknown."
Currently, there are many powerful individuals at the Immortal Emperor level in the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, but in terms of aptitude, Yan Wuxiang is the worst among them.
Whether it's you, Fu Zheng, or any other Heavenly Lord, there's no guarantee that you won't break through to the Half-Saint realm in the future.
However, Yan Wuxiang is different in comparison.
His aptitude is limited to reaching the Immortal Emperor realm; even with extraordinary opportunities, advancing further would be extremely difficult.
"so--"
"I gave him the Saintly Elixir so that the Heavenly Demon Holy Land could have another top-tier expert, and also to ensure the immortality of other Immortal Emperors!"
Shen Changqing's words cleared up all of Gu Zhou's doubts.
Simultaneously.
He understood the meaning behind the former's words.
"I was just curious, but I am very grateful to Your Majesty for clearing up my doubts!"
"It's normal for Senior Brother Gu to have some thoughts about these things. If it weren't for Senior Brother Gu's top-notch talent and the potential to break through to the Half-Saint Realm in the future, he would naturally be the first target to take the Saint Immortal Pill."
Shen Changqing smiled slightly; how could Gu Zhou's inner thoughts escape his eyes?
Some things can be reduced if they are discussed openly.
even though.
These elixirs were obtained by Shen Changqing himself, and it is not up to others to tell him who he wants to bestow them upon, but there is no need to deliberately create any conflict.
"This time, it was Gu's petty mind that was wrong!"
Gu Zhou took a deep breath, a hint of shame on his face.
Shen Changqing waved his hand and said calmly, "We are fellow disciples, so it's too formal to say such things. Now that a great calamity has befallen the world, the Holy Land's power is gradually growing stronger, and Senior Brother Gu will have his own hope of attaining enlightenment in the future."
At this moment, Gu Zhou's slight dissatisfaction had completely dissipated.
With his doubts resolved, he didn't linger, apologized briefly, and left.
Not long after Gu Zhou left, Yan Wuxiang also arrived.
"Holy Lord!"
At this moment, Yan Wuxiang's expression became even more respectful than before.
Like other cultivators, Shen Changqing's effortless killing of Bei Chenyuan also deeply shocked this deputy holy master of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land.
In the original battle against the Xuanqing Immortal Sect, Shen Changqing was able to contend with the Xuanqing Venerable, but that was because he relied on the power of a supreme treasure.
But this time.
Shen Changqing, however, killed Bei Chenyuan with his own strength.
How could Yan Wuxiang not know the extent of Bei Chenyuan's strength?
Although the other party is not as good as me, they are not much worse.
The fact that Shen Changqing was able to easily kill Bei Chenyuan means that even without using any other powerful trump cards, the other party could easily suppress him.
This also shows.
Why wasn't the other party worried at all about betraying them when they entrusted him with the Sainthood Elixir?
This person's strength is such that they have no fear of half-saints who have attained enlightenment through elixirs.
Looking at the person in front of him, Shen Changqing slowly asked, "How are the preparations going?"
"Everything is ready, and we are just waiting for the Holy Lord's order to send out the troops!"
"Alright, then let's march into the Northern Star Region tomorrow and annihilate the Bright Light Holy Land."
A chilling killing intent flashed in Shen Changqing's eyes, disappearing in an instant.
The purpose of Mingguang Holy Land sending seven Fallen Immortals this time is to deal with Tianyao Holy Land.
Even if Shen Changqing hadn't originally planned to take action against the Mingguang Holy Land, he still has to respond now.
The intention of the Bright Light Holy Land to destroy the Heavenly Demon Holy Land is now crystal clear.
To be honest.
With the strength of fallen immortals like Bei Chenyuan.
In the past, the Heavenly Demon Holy Land would have been absolutely unable to withstand it.
Even 100,000 years ago, Shen Changqing would probably have had to use some of his trump cards.
but.
It's estimated that no matter how that ancient half-saint thought about it, he would never have imagined that he could make such a breakthrough in his cultivation in just tens of thousands of years.
It's one thing to step from the Immortal Emperor realm to the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm in one step, but to open up the Five Elements Universe and reach the ultimate peak of the Immortal Emperor realm in one go.
This breakthrough to such a high level has already made Shen Changqing's strength reach an astonishing level.
Especially this battle.
This gave Shen Changqing a clear understanding of his own strength.
Bei Chenyuan was able to contend with Yan Wuxiang, which meant that Yan Wuxiang's strength had clearly broken through the limits of the Immortal Emperor and reached the level of a pseudo-saint.
Even so, he was able to easily kill his opponent.
and so.
In Shen Changqing's view.
If nothing unexpected happens, his own strength is enough to steadily step into the realm of a half-saint.
Even when facing an ordinary immortal half-saint, Shen Changqing has the confidence to fight without using any trump cards.
This time.
We must be able to destroy the Holy Land of Bright Light.
To obtain cultivation resources from such forces.
By then.
Shen Changqing was confident that he could further improve his strength without breaking through his cultivation level.
……
One day.
fleeting.
Not long after the seven fallen immortals perished, and before the traces of the great battle had completely disappeared, all forces were still watching the affairs of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land closely.
On the side of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, a large army was mobilized.
One after another, the immortal ships shattered the void, unleashing astonishing auras, before crashing through the barrier of the immortal realm and disappearing directly from the sight of the numerous cultivators.
This scene.
This shocked all the forces involved.
"With such a massive army, what exactly does the Heavenly Demon Holy Land intend to do?!"
