Chapter 347: The Azure Water Army
The Northern Yu Dynasty.
This was a powerful imperial dynasty. In ancient times, it had produced an Emperor, and its heritage ran deep. Although it was slightly inferior to the Xiao Clan, it was at least on par with the Jiang Clan.
Many forces did not dare to provoke the Northern Yu Dynasty. Not to mention that not long ago, the Northern Yu Divine Emperor had officially stepped into the Saint Realm, becoming a genuine Saint.
When other Holy Lords or Divine Emperors achieved sainthood, it was mostly because they were stimulated by Li Xun. Unwilling to be surpassed by a junior, thus they rushed into becoming Saints.
But the Northern Yu Divine Emperor was different. He had long since solidified his foundation and could have become a Saint much earlier. However, he had been delayed because of his daughter’s condition.
Now that his beloved daughter had fully recovered, he had no more concerns. He stepped directly into sainthood, passing through the Eightfold Saint Tribulation in one go, shocking countless factions.
It should be known that among those in the same era across the entire Desolate Ancient Continent, aside from Li Xun, who could firmly suppress him, everyone else was inferior to the Northern Yu Divine Emperor.
This made many realize that, among his generation, the Northern Yu Divine Emperor was undoubtedly a top-tier prodigy.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Today, a chilling killing intent filled the Northern Yu Dynasty.
War drums that had not been sounded for tens of thousands of years now echoed throughout the imperial city.
"What’s happening?"
"Could it be that someone is invading the Northern Yu Dynasty?"
"Impossible! The Northern Yu Dynasty is an imperial clan, it once produced an Emperor. Who would be foolish enough to provoke them? Aren’t they afraid an imperial weapon might be unleashed?"
"Then could it be that the Northern Yu Dynasty is about to act against another force?"
"Possibly..."
...
As countless people in the imperial city speculated—
"ROAR—!"
A deafening roar resounded.
Palaces trembled as a massive azure dragon soared across the sky, casting a vast shadow. Its aura was terrifying, causing all living beings to tremble.
It had a pair of enormous scaled wings, each as large as a mountain, covering half the imperial city. Its entire body, coiled together, resembled a towering demonic peak, so high it couldn’t be seen in full, its pressure suffocating.
One could only imagine how colossal this azure dragon truly was.
"It’s Senior Azure Dragon of the Northern Yu Dynasty! He’s actually emerged! It’s said he already stepped into the Half-Saint Realm and may become a Saint in the future, serving as the dynasty’s guardian divine beast!" Someone cried out in shock.
This azure dragon was not a mere mount in the Northern Yu Dynasty, but a revered figure—its status was extremely high. Within its body flowed a trace of ancient Azure Dragon true blood.
In the future, there was a chance it could return to its ancestral lineage!
If it became a Saint, its combat power among those of the same level would be nearly invincible.
"ROAR—!"
More roars echoed as one ferocious beast after another charged out. Upon each beast sat an elite soldier clad in armor, holding a spear.
Their blood energy surged, their armor exuded a chilling aura, and lightning flashed within their eyes when they opened them—clearly, every one of them possessed formidable strength.
Even the weakest among them had reached the Divine Power Realm.
The Divine Power Realm wasn’t particularly high within the cultivation world—roughly mid-tier—but without a doubt, cultivators at this level were the backbone of any faction.
And now, above the Northern Yu Dynasty, there were actually thirty thousand of them!
Thirty thousand Divine Power Realm cultivators, along with some Life and Death Realm commanders and Divine Palace Realm generals. Though the number of troops wasn’t enormous, the pressure they exuded was enough to make one’s heart tremble with fear.
"The Azure Water Army!"
"It’s the Azure Water Army!"
A thunderous wave of shouts erupted throughout the imperial city.
This was the most elite army of the Northern Yu Dynasty. Whether the soldiers or their mounts, all possessed Divine Power Realm strength. Every soldier who wished to join the Azure Water Army had to pass through layers of strict selection.
It could be said that every single one of them was an outstanding genius.
Though they numbered only thirty thousand, they had once defeated armies of millions—and not just once.
"Soldiers, follow me to annihilate Great Chu!"
A majestic voice echoed through the sky. Within its solemnity and authority carried a chilling killing intent that made one’s scalp tingle and body go cold.
Just a few simple words revealed boundless murderous intent.
As the words fell, a golden sun descended slowly from the sky, radiating supreme power. It landed upon the head of the azure dragon, releasing countless rays of light so dazzling that none dared to look directly at it.
That figure was terrifying beyond measure, illuminating the heavens like a celestial emperor, looking down upon all creation.
Others might not be able to stand upon the azure dragon’s head—but the Northern Yu Divine Emperor was clearly an exception. Whether in strength or status, he stood above the dragon itself.
"Annihilate Great Chu!"
"Annihilate Great Chu!"
"Annihilate Great Chu!"
...
The roaring chants shook the four corners of heaven and earth, nearly deafening all who heard them. Countless people in the imperial city collapsed to the ground.
The emperor personally leading the campaign!
Even in the mortal world, these words carried immense weight. Here, in the cultivation world, they were no less awe-inspiring.
Everyone present understood that with the Northern Yu Divine Emperor taking action, he was determined to flatten the Great Chu Dynasty.
"What exactly happened?"
"The Northern Yu Dynasty and the Great Chu Dynasty are so far apart and have no prior enmity. Why is Northern Yu so determined to attack Great Chu today?"
"Brother, you don’t know? Not long ago, the Profound Sun Holy Land released news that the Great Chu Dynasty has allied with Otherworldly Demons."
"So that’s the case..."
...
Amid endless discussions, the thirty thousand Azure Water Army had already begun crossing realms.
They stepped onto a massive teleportation formation and quickly vanished from sight. Everyone knew that in just a short time, they would likely already be nearing the borders of the Great Chu Dynasty.
Before long, the Northern Yu Dynasty and the Great Chu Dynasty would truly clash.
Everyone in the imperial city was filled with curiosity—
What would be the outcome of this battle?
With the reappearance of the Azure Water Army, and the Great Chu Dynasty backed by Otherworldly Demons... could they really withstand it?
