If he had been more cautious, using the power of the King Jun Golden Man, he might not have fallen into such a strange space coordinate.
But soon he calmed his Dao Heart, trying to find a way to break through and leave this place to return to reality as soon as possible.
He couldn't stay here long, lest Haojing City might undergo unexpected changes.
...
"This Qianhai True Monarch has stayed here too long, yet his mind is not clear. If the power of the King Jun Golden Man were invincible, would he have lost to the Ancestor Yu of old?"
In the depths of the void, True Monarch Zhanmo watched the blood-red banners fluttering, moving through the void and summoning the blood river to descend.
Her gaze swept over the vast blood river.
The cultivation techniques of the Blood Shadow Demon Sect are quite bizarre. After attainment, most of the Primordial Spirit Masters transform their Primordial Spirit Dharma Aspect into a blood river, resonating with this boundless blood river.
The higher the Dao Practice and the greater the slaughter, the more they can please the blood river and gain the favor of many Demon Gods and Demon Lords within it.
At this time, the Blood Sea Saint Monarch was using the Mysterious Technique from the Blood Sea Scripture, continuously summoning the power of the blood river, enough to keep Qianhai True Monarch busy for a while.
It was impossible to completely trap him.
But at the very least, he could be trapped for a few days.
Being trapped for those few days could potentially reverse the situation.
True Monarch Zhanmo focused on Qianhai True Monarch. She turned her gaze away, choosing not to act for now, as it was not yet the time to seize the King Jun Golden Man.
She gazed once more at the ground below.
At Yuanchi Pass, a fierce battle was raging.
Taking advantage of Qianhai True Monarch drawing some of the Beichu offerings and cultivators away, Chao Mu immediately led his soldiers in a fierce assault on Yuanchi Pass.
A brutal siege battle was unfolding, with countless blazing blood evil qi soaring to the sky, obscuring the sun and moon.
The demon arrays before the pass had been broken, and many cultivators on the side of Daqian were battling the defeated demonic Primordial Spirits and Beichu cultivators.
The dreadful battle saw blood flow like rivers, with Primordial Spirit Masters, akin to land immortals, fiercely fighting for survival.
Primordial Spirit Masters fared slightly better, while ordinary cultivators were like ordinary warriors, their magical powers clouded by blood evil qi, their abilities hindered, engaged in oblivious slaughter like mundane martial artists, and many had already fallen.
Beneath the Great Qian Dragon Banner, starlight blazed brightly.
In the depths of the sky, streaks of starlight flowed, seemingly resonating with the life plates of the military generals below.
The most conspicuous was An Ruming under the Dragon Banner, enveloped in overwhelming evil qi, with the Star Monarch Dharma Aspect of a wolf-headed human forming behind him. As he advanced with the Great Qian Dragon Banner, he gradually penetrated Yuanchi Pass, and the Star Monarch Dharma Aspect atop his head transformed into a divine being, the wolf head merging into the robes of the divine being.
"Star Monarch Greedy Wolf!"
Watching this stream of light, True Monarch Zhanmo took note.
True Monarch Zhanmo noticed several imposing Divine Thoughts persistently lingering around An Ruming, seeking an opportunity.
These included Tuoba Zhenwu, the Grandmaster of Beichu, and several demonic Primordial Spirits.
Yet, their capabilities could not withstand in such blood evil qi facing a martial general descended with the Star Fate Greedy Wolf.
One increases while the other decreases; one is heavily suppressed by blood evil qi and has their magical power diminished by the Dragon Qi, and the other's Star Fate Dharma Aspect grows continuously in blood evil qi. If they engage, they risk being beheaded by the martial general.
High Tier Primordial Spirit Masters would not act rashly.
Currently, the martial generals are connected to the troop formations below, and although they can take risks to kill, it would certainly involve innocent soldiers, incurring killings and sins.
The higher the Dao Practice, the more they cherish their reputation.
Unless there is a compelling reason to act.
True Monarch Zhanmo cast a glance, then turned away.
Meanwhile, within the Beichu Imperial Palace below, several Primordial Spirit Masters were on guard, defending against any sneak attacks from other formidable Daqian individuals.
Earlier, Qianhai True Monarch had disguised himself and nearly succeeded in infiltrating.
If not for the warning from the Hundred Gods, others might not have imagined that Qianhai True Monarch would disregard his stature and attack a mundane Emperor.
...
Haojing City, the Zhang Family mansion was brightly lit.
At this moment, Zhang Jian's brow furrowed suddenly, his vast Yang God Divine Sense gazing into the void.
In the next instant, a beam of light appeared in the void, instantly piercing through and appearing before Zhang Jian.
"Master?"
Before Zhang Jian, the True Body of True Monarch Zhanmo appeared.
At this time, True Monarch Zhanmo looked somewhat surprised at the surroundings of the Zhang Family Mansion.
Though the Blessed Land Dharma Realm around the Zhang Family Mansion was deeply hidden, in her eyes, there was nothing it could escape.
"A wondrous technique of an Outer World's Blessed Land, you indeed have good fortune!"
True Monarch Zhanmo gazed at Zhang Jian, smiling slightly before asking.
"Are you ready?"
Zhang Jian's eyes moved; he knew what True Monarch Zhanmo was asking, nodding his head.
"Master, will you take action against His Majesty this time?"
True Monarch Zhanmo glanced at Zhang Jian, her gaze fluctuating, then she said suddenly.
"If I were to say yes, would you stand against your master?"
Zhang Jian laughed, shaking his head.
"I wouldn't!"
True Monarch Zhanmo looked at Zhang Jian, then laughed lightly. "Why?"
Zhang Jian chuckled directly. "Because I can't beat Master!"
Hearing this, True Monarch Zhanmo chuckled, shaking her head.
"For this trip, my only target is Qianhai. Emperor Jingwu is nothing but an ordinary human, not deserving of my Demon-Slaying Immortal-Slaying Sword!"
"However, even if I don't act, others might. Those old guys are far more ruthless than me!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian's eyes flickered, and he sighed softly.
"Is Qianhai True Monarch truly trapped?"
True Monarch Zhanmo gave Zhang Jian a sidelong glance, an unusual look in her eyes. Zhang Jian's vast divine abilities exceeded her expectations.
To be honest, upon meeting Zhang Jian this time, the feeling was particularly intense.
A Primordial Spirit Level Divine Sense and Primordial Spirit Immortal Techniques were not typical of a Yin Spirit Venerable.
However, True Monarch Zhanmo ultimately did not voice her doubts.
Otherwise, it would seem her judgment as a master was lacking.
True Monarch Zhanmo briefly recounted Qianhai True Monarch's predicament.
"Qianhai True Monarch is trapped within the Blood Sea Grand Array. When he emerges, many powerful strikes will await him. He likely has little chance to turn the tides!"
"Yet tonight, the most dangerous is not him, but Haojing City, as well as you all..."
She slowly ascended to the Zhang Family loft, gazing at the sky, a smile gradually forming on her lips.
"It's here!"
Zhang Jian's divine sense also detected it, several massive energies descending from the sky, many of them familiar faces.
The fleeting appearance of Jin Chen Ancestor from the Five Elements Immortal Sect was first to show, followed by four others behind him.
Though Zhang Jian didn't know these four figures, their energies were familiar as they had clashed with Qianhai True Monarch and carried injuries.
It was the other figure beside Jin Chen Ancestor, surrounded by noble aura like a Celestial Royal, who was unfamiliar. Around him flowed a thick, grand Dragon Qi.
Upon seeing this figure, True Monarch Zhanmo sneered, "The descendant of the noble Saint King Ancient Race has become a vassal to other Immortal Sect Dao Lineages, truly laughable!"
Hearing this, Zhang Jian glanced at the noble middle-aged man beside Jin Chen Ancestor in the sky.
This noble middle-aged man also bore Dragon Qi, indicating a distinguished status.
According to True Monarch Zhanmo, could he be a strong figure from the Saint King's Family?
At this moment, Jin Chen Ancestor spoke calmly, "Prince Shun, after we break the killing array below, I entrust you with the task of subduing and beheading Emperor Jingwu. It would be best to annihilate his entire lineage!"
The noble middle-aged man, called Prince Shun, nodded and smiled. "Rest assured, Uncle Master, leave this matter to me!"
"Good!"
Jin Chen Ancestor nodded, and simultaneously, he and the other four ancestors released their energies, overwhelming spiritual energy surging forth as he wielded an ancient, majestic sword.
A tremendous killing intent emanated from the ancient sword, and as his magical power flowed, it seemed like countless sword shadows abruptly slashed toward the Imperial City.
"Open!"
As the overwhelming killing intent gathered, on the Observatory Platform, Jingming Daoist felt a chill on his scalp. Additionally, he sensed several terrifying killing intents approaching and an eerie power seeming to penetrate the void, pressing down on him.
