Supreme Warrior in the City

Nine Realms, World Melting Furnace.

The Heaven Slayer returned with the Taoist Venerable and the Buddha Venerable, while the Heavenly Warriors of the Human Clan were waiting outside.

The Human Clan had only six strongest beings, namely the Three Great Ancients and the Ancient Three Strong.

In terms of the number of Supremes, the Human Clan was far inferior to the Guardian God.

The Guardian God had a total of twenty-three strongest beings, and in this era, a few more showed the potential to become the strongest. Now that the Guardian God has regained half of the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet, if they pour all resources into training, it’s very likely that these few people could rapidly advance to the level of the strongest.

In such circumstances, the number of the strongest beings in the Human Clan was even more outmatched compared to the Guardian God.

Although the strongest in the Human Clan were all individuals with resilient Taoist hearts and immense power, originally having six against twenty-three was barely sustainable. If the Guardian God gained a few more strong beings, it would definitely be problematic for the Human Clan.

Fortunately, Su Yang was now demonstrating the potential of the strongest, still in seclusion and very likely to ascend once more.

This advancement would allow Su Yang to reach a mid-level Heavenly Realm. With Su Yang’s cultivation speed, it is estimated that he could soon enter an advanced Heavenly Realm, even the Heavenly Peak, and then break into the realm of the strongest.

Everyone in the Human Clan was aware that their hope essentially rested on Su Yang. If Su Yang could ascend to the strongest level within ten thousand years, there was hope for the Human Clan!

The Buddha and Taoist Venerables returned and met their old subordinates respectively. As for the Heaven Slayer, during ancient times, he was a solitary figure with few followers, but many regarded him as a spiritual leader. Therefore, the Heaven Slayer subsequently had many followers too.

However, the Heaven Slayer was the type who disliked social interaction. Upon his return, he didn’t meet with his followers, and the only one he took along was Little Huang.

Little Huang’s strength had also skyrocketed. After Su Yang returned with the Earth Principle, Little Huang was able to absorb its power, having now reached the Earth-level Realm and soon approaching the Peak of Earth-level, with a high possibility of quickly advancing to the Heavenly Realm.

The return of the Earth Principle had also accelerated the cultivation speed of Heavenly Warriors on the Human Clan’s side by several times.

It could be said that with the return of the Earth Principle and the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet to the Guardian God’s side, the cultivation limitations for both the Human Clan and Guardian God were completely lifted. Previously constrained, everyone was unable to reach the Heavenly Realm. But now, without these limitations, everyone could quickly restore their peak strength; the Heavenly Warriors on the Human Clan’s side were entering the Heavenly Realm one after another.

The Heaven Slayer and others peacefully spent ten years within the World Melting Furnace. During this decade, most Heavenly Warriors on the Human Clan’s side were in seclusion, rapidly restoring their strength. The strongest being had returned, and the war between the Human Clan and the Guardian God could reignite at any moment. Hence, quickly enhancing one’s strength was the most crucial thing!

On this day, while everyone was in seclusion, a powerful aura suddenly erupted within the World Melting Furnace, startling the Heavenly Warriors, who immediately flew out.

After coming out, they found the Heaven Slayer already in the sky of the World Melting Furnace, accompanied by a gigantic illusion and a little earth-colored dog at his feet.

The powerful aura was emanating from the Heaven Slayer.

At the same time, the Heaven Slayer stood at the horizon, seemingly observing something, or perhaps guarding against something.

A group of Heavenly Warriors exchanged glances, unsure of what the Heaven Slayer had discovered.

However, some sharp-eyed Heavenly Warriors had already noticed that there was no mark of the Taoist and Buddha Venerables above their respective palaces, indicating that they were not inside. Where could they have gone?

Additionally, someone spotted a figure in a red robe standing quietly near the woods where Su Yang was in seclusion; it was precisely Feather Spirit Palace’s Master.

In the valleys of the World Melting Furnace, mists also rolled, with the Demon Lord poised to emerge at any moment.

Everyone was astounded—what had happened to cause such an intense reaction from five out of the six strongest beings?

Suddenly, a bold voice rang out: "Didn’t expect the first one to come to the World Melting Furnace would be the Eternal Main God, equal in fame to the First God. How come, being sidelined by the First God, you’re here acting as a scout?"

Everyone heard it clearly; it was the voice of the Human Emperor.

As the words fell, a figure had already soared, landing beside the Heaven Slayer, revealing itself to be the Human Emperor.

Simultaneously, two more descended from the sky. One was the Taoist Venerable, and the other was the Human Emperor, both standing beside the Heaven Slayer.

The two emanated strong auras, appearing as if they had just fought someone.

In that horizon, a vortex had appeared, gradually slowing until it turned into a void. In that void appeared a pair of eyes, looking down on beings as if the whole world was beneath him!

These Heavenly Warriors, aside from formidable beings like the Eternal Divine Emperor, dared not meet those eyes. Even a glance induced a heart-pounding reverence, feeling compelled to bow in worship.

"Playing tricks!" the Human Emperor shouted, with a wave of his hand, a wave soared skyward, sweeping towards those eyes.

"Mortal, how dare you defy the heavens!" came an angry voice, as the eyes widened sharply, shooting out two beams shattering the overwhelming wave.

"Who do you think you are, daring to call yourself the heavens? Did your Heavenly Dao master not straighten you out later on?" the Human Emperor mocked, as the shattered wave surged again, this time reaching right next to those eyes.

"Dare you!" roared the figure in the air, but it was too late. The wave shattered the surrounding void near those eyes, revealing a massive figure—it was the Eternal Main God.

"Eternal, you’re really living more backwards!" the Human Emperor mocked with a cold smile, "We’ve fought more than once or twice now, hiding and pretending like this, who are you trying to scare?"

The Eternal Main God wore a cold expression. "Human Emperor, the grievances between us must be resolved once and for all," he said solemnly.

"Are you planning to fight now or fight now?" the Human Emperor retorted directly.

The Eternal Main God was momentarily stunned; such a way of speaking left him quite at a loss.

"What, you can’t even make a choice?" the Human Emperor sneered, "Eternal, when you disassembled your soldiers, did you also disassemble your brain?"

"Hahaha..." The Heavenly Warriors below burst into laughter; the Human Emperor’s words truly showed no mercy, insult without vulgarity.

"Human Emperor, I won’t engage in petty squabbles with you!" the Eternal Main God gritted his teeth, "I’ve come today to inform you of something!"
