Chapter 1727 - 1710: Ascending the Battlefield
The Taixu Great Realm is truly vast. Even Heavenly Spirit Realm experts cannot probe its limits, and only Saint Rank experts have the qualification to traverse a Great Realm.
Even a star domain within the Taixu Great Realm is extremely vast to Spirit Rank experts.
Presently, within the Blue Demon Star Domain, warfare is unending. Numerous boundary bandits are marauding, causing havoc in all directions. Ancient stars one by one are being consumed by the flames of war. Most of the Spirit Kings under the Blue Demon have been deployed, pursuing these boundary bandits to quell the chaos and establish war merits.
This ongoing war has reached a fever pitch. Countless boundary bandits are revealing themselves, and both sides have gone mad. Even Spirit Kings are starting to fall under the onslaught of the boundary bandits.
In the Blue Demon Star Domain, on an ancient star tens of billions of kilometers away from the Spirit Capital.
This ancient star is covered with dense forests, rugged rocks, and ubiquitous ancient peaks, with an overall treacherous terrain, resembling a natural hiding place.
"Kill them!"
"Slay these damn boundary bandits!"
...
A troop of Spirit Army soldiers from the Blue Demon Star Domain shouted hoarsely, fighting with all their might.
Looking ahead, countless figures burst out from the dense forest. Dressed in strange costumes, looking like boundary bandits, they surged in vast numbers, exceeding a million, which was truly terrifying.
Even though the Spirit Army of the Blue Demon Star Domain is well-equipped, they were obviously being suppressed at this moment, and the boundary bandits, like a huge dragon, were gradually encircling this Spirit Army.
"Hahaha, to think you could find this place, you must have some skill."
"I’ve heard the Spirit Army under Blue Demon is incredibly brave. Today, I, Wu Guang, shall destroy you, using your blood and flesh to pave my reputation among the boundary bandits!"
A burly man in black war armor, wielding a bow exuding terrifying power, laughed towards the sky. Each time he drew the bow, a thunderous sound echoed across the Nine Heavens, claiming the lives of Spirit Army soldiers.
This burly man intended to lead the boundary bandits under his command to counterattack this Blue Demon Spirit Army!
"Damn it, the number of boundary bandits on this ancient star is just too many! It’s clearly the stronghold of ’Wu Guang’ among the boundary bandit forces!"
"Spirit King, what should we do?"
"If this continues, our 50th Division of the Spirit Army might face complete annihilation!"
A martial artist dressed as a commander, looking at the endlessly bow-drawing burly man, was simultaneously frightened and infuriated.
Amidst the turmoil in the Blue Demon Star Domain, several boundary bandit forces have emerged, with the one led by the boundary bandit leader Wu Guang being one of them.
Wu Guang, a powerhouse at the Late Earth Spirit Realm, possessing the spiritual artifact Wu Guang Bow, capable of killing enemies from a thousand miles away, has claimed the lives of many Earth Spirit Realm experts, infamous and fearsome.
He commands over two million Spirit Rank Martial Artists, with several being at the Earth Spirit Realm, causing fear and dread, known across the entire Blue Demon Star Domain as a boundary bandit leader of great renown.
To eliminate Wu Guang and his boundary bandits would require at least three Blue Demon Spirit Army forces combined to besiege them.
"Break out!"
A medium-built, dark-skinned Spirit King gritted his teeth and shouted fiercely.
If Xiao Ye were here, he would certainly recognize him. This person is the newly appointed Spirit King Ma Mengyou, who has a good relationship with him, often sending him information during his three years of concealment, belonging to the Leng Ming Law Enforcement Officer’s command, possessing the Earth Spirit Mid Stage realm.
"Yes!"
Hearing Ma Mengyou’s words, his three army commanders reluctantly nodded and continued to lead the Spirit Army soldiers in breaking through.
"Damn it, they’ve actually plotted against me, it must be Demon Weapon’s doing!"
Ma Mengyou’s angry gaze turned towards the vast cosmos.
Relying on the Spirit King Token on him, he could clearly sense that there were two Spirit Kings in the starry sky, coldly watching this unfold.
This ancient star was not discovered by him alone, but rather induced here by a Spirit King under Ethan Law Enforcement Officer’s command using means.
The result was like stirring a hornet’s nest.
Here... was unexpectedly the notorious boundary bandit leader Wu Guang’s lair!
That Spirit King under Ethan Law Enforcement Officer’s command evidently aimed to use Wu Guang’s hand to remove him!
Such a method is too despicable.
Ma Mengyou knew that, as a newly appointed Spirit King, he had no prior conflicts with other Spirit Kings. If any existed, it was only that he was quite close to Xiao Ye, arousing Demon Weapon’s hostility.
In his years of warring with boundary bandits, Demon Weapon has targeted him more than once.
"Haha, once Wu Guang kills Ma Mengyou, his boundary bandits will be significantly weakened. By then, we can take action and easily harvest war merits. Even if we can’t kill their leader Wu Guang, we will surely gain a lot of war merits."
"What a mantis catches the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. However, letting a Spirit King fall just like that seems somewhat inappropriate."
"Heh, in the battle against boundary bandits, losses are normal. Even Leng Ming Law Enforcement Officer would have nothing to say, not to mention Ma Mengyou, who is so close to Xiao Ye. Demon Weapon doesn’t like him, so if he dies, he deserves it."
"Indeed, that kid deserves it, too blind to see. Under Demon Weapon’s strong rise, he still dares to be so close to Xiao Ye. I fear that even if he sends out a distress signal, no one will dare to help him, dying here is deserved."
...
Not far away in the starry sky, two figures in Spirit King battle armor stood suspended, engaging in unrestrained conversation, both with smiles on their faces.
They were Spirit Kings under Ethan Law Enforcement Officer’s command.
They had long discovered this ancient star, but had been intimidated by Wu Guang’s terror, not daring to make a move.
Wu Guang’s lair, where the bloody battle continues.
"Are all these Spirit Kings so opportunistic?"
Ma Mengyou watched as one warrior after another fell around him, lying in pools of blood. He gazed at the unresponsive Spirit King Token in his hand, nearly despairing.
The Spirit King Token has many uses, one of which is to notify other Spirit Kings within a certain range.
However, his call for help seemed to vanish into thin air, with not the slightest response.
Boom!
At this moment, a sudden thunderous sound erupted from mid-air. An intense murderous aura swept forth, as a majestic black weapon, an awe-inspiring presence, descended from the sky, piercing the ground between the boundary bandits and Spirit Army soldiers on this ancient star.
Boom!
This black weapon, heavy and powerful, caused vast gashes to spread. The ancient star quaked violently in response.
Then, an unbelievable scene occurred.
From the center of the black weapon, within a radius of ten thousand meters, all the boundary bandits felt their spiritual power completely drained from their bodies, collapsing onto the ground, bodies turning into pools of flesh, blood splashing in all directions.
"What’s happening?"
This sudden scene brought the ferocious fighting to a halt, all sounds ceased, and horrified gazes fell upon the black weapon.
Even Wu Guang and Ma Mengyou were stunned.
It was a long spear, standing upright in the earth, from which a terrifying ancient beast broke free from its seal, bringing boundless killing intent to the heavens.
A young man in Spirit King battle armor, with hands behind his back and flowing black hair, appeared like a Heavenly God descending to the mortal realm, standing atop the long spear.
"Xiao... Xiao Ye Spirit King? You’ve arrived on the battlefield!" Ma Mengyou’s expression was bewildered for a moment, then he exclaimed excitedly.
