The sacred puppet has no feelings. Its mechanical eyes watch the demonic army conduct a massacre, all the while streaming back the images through flickering lights.


    This demonic army kills indiscriminately. However, this time only one puppet was sent, so it wasn''t afraid of the backlash.


    Though the demonic army is weaker compared to those of the same level, they are extremely fierce and know no fear of death.


    "Block them, damn it! How dare they drive the demonic army to stand against us! How did the Emperor of Dawu manage to condense the demonic Qi into demon orbs, creating scenes from within the abyss!"


    Li Jue and Meng Tian were furious and shocked.


    They were the first to try and kill the Xuan God-level monsters.


    The battle was extremely intense. The demonic army was numerous and the ones that had been caught from the deep layer of the Demon Abyss were powerful, their ferocity reaching an extreme.


    Quantity compensates for quality. Particularly now when they emerged in hordes, causing utter chaos.


    Unimaginably intense, cruel, and bloody.


    Everywhere echoed with the sounds of the battle.


    If another person were to visit, they would certainly be terrified. It had turned into a bloody Asura Field.


    Of the five Xuan God-level demons, three had been killed by Li Jue and Meng Tian. However, they were not unscathed. Particularly Meng Tian, who had been hit by the Eye of Catastrophe from a one-eyed demon, his body now permeated by the decaying aura of catastrophe.


    Eighty percent of the released demonic army had been slaughtered. However, it also severely damaged the army of the Everlasting Empire, forcing them to retreat.


    "Ding! Current task progress (5/100)."


    Chu Yuan also received the notification about the task progress.


    "Return!"


    The sacred puppet used the Divine Enthronement stele to recall the remaining demons.


    Although a lot of the demons were lost in the battle, Chu Yuan was not bothered. If he ran out, he could seal more within the Demon Abyss, depending on whether he had the strength to do so.


    "Getting through the initial stages consumed too many demons. The front-line battle doesn''t need me to oversee. I should channel my efforts into sealing more demons in the Demon Abyss."


    Chu Yuan once again set off for the Demon Abyss.


    This task of sealing could only be done by him; even Ning Xiuchen couldn''t do it.


    The elderly man was King Tian Guang, the strongest figure in the empire stationed here.


    "The Everlasting Empire think too highly of themselves since their restoration. They want all the world''s forces to submit to them, trying to regain the glory of ancient times. But things have changed, it''s not their time anymore. After suffering such a severe loss just from fighting against a single empire, that''s like getting a hard slap in the face."


    King Tian Guang, whose expression had been gloomy for days, finally mustered a smile.


    "I have said before, dealing with Dawu is not easy. There are terrifying mysterious forces behind them. The more they are forced, the harder it is to imagine what they will bring out."


    Xiao Yang said: "Killing a few Xuan Gods won''t destroy Dawu. The empire now needs to win over any forces that can be won over."


    "Exactly!" Said King Tian Guang seriously: "Although our Holy Sky Empire is a dynasty, the Everlasting Empire had produced beings like the five ancient emperors who defied heaven. The Emperor Everlasting is the most terrifying one. No one knows his current level. With Dawu present, they can constrain some of their forces."


    Your adventure continues at empire


    "Erode the enemy, strengthen ourselves." Xiao Yang said: "We should also provide some information to Dawu. I get the feeling that the Martial Emperor is a highly ambitious man with a mysterious and strange strength. I look forward to seeing more of their unusual deep rooted power."


    "We should be afraid that there will be greater chaos in the eternal world. Don''t forget, there were five emperors in ancient times. The Emperor Everlasting is about to return. What about the other four?"


    King Tian Guang sighed: "In the ancient times, these five empires were the strongest."


    "I hadn''t thought about this. There is a high possibility that all five emperors will return at the same time. Their empires might also be restored together!"


    ...


    As such, another month passed.


    Chu Yuan captured many demons in the Demon Abyss, effectively replenishing the numbers of his demonic army.


    Unfortunately, he could not delve too deep. It wasn''t the demonic Qi that worried him, but that the deeper he went, the higher-level demons he encountered. Some of them were not within his current capacity to seal.


    "Your Majesty, King Zhong Yong has reported that border areas are seeing an increase of troops from the Eastern Forbidden Area. The number of Xuan Gods has increased to three, and unfamiliar forces are continuously gathering. The war with the Eastern Forbidden Area will commence within the month."


    After coming back from the Demon Abyss, Chu Yuan personally took control of the military command, issuing orders.


    "The Everlasting Empire continues to call upon powerful individuals, seeking revenge for the previous day!"


    ...


    "Have the whole army prepare, and move the citizens from the border to safety. Do not let them be affected by the war. I will handle the matters within the empire, do not worry about that."


    Chu Yuan was issuing orders.


    However, there was a sudden, loud rumble! The world shook violently, causing Chu Yuan who had went out to look at the sky to be shocked. This world underwent an incredibly big change without any warning!
