With the help of the three, including Taiyuan Daoist, more than a hundred people entered the palace of the Taichu Dynasty in the blink of an eye.

For cultivators at least at the Nascent Soul stage, the Imperial Palace of the Primordial Dynasty was practically undefended.

The heavily guarded Imperial Guards were completely unaware that they had entered the palace.

"Zhou Tian Xing Chen Grand Array, activate!"

They had just entered when they heard a voice.

With this sound, the expressions of Taiyuan Daoist and the others changed drastically, as if everything before them shattered into an illusion. What appeared before them was a starry sky, while beneath their feet lay the pitch-black night sky.

One by one, figures appeared before Taiyuan Daoist and the others.

These figures were none other than Emperor Li Jing of the Taichu Dynasty, Grand Secretary Yan Changqing, Grand Astrologer Nangong Qingyue, Minister of Revenue Mu Yunfei, Minister of Works Tie Ao, Minister of War Dongfang Ming, General of the Imperial Guard Zhang Zhentian, Minister of the Court of Imperial Stud Hu Qizheng, Minister of Agriculture Yu Changqing, Director of the Imperial Pharmacy Gu Qingshan, Commander of the Tian Shu Legion Guo Jingfei, Commander of the Tian Xuan Legion Dongfang Yao, Commander of the Tian Ji Legion Chu Batian, Commander of the Tian Quan Legion Zhou Li, Commander of the Yu Heng Legion Gongsun Wangshu, and Commander of the Kai Yang Legion Huangfu Yunhai, among others.

The one with the weakest cultivation level is Gongsun Wangshu, the commander of the Yuheng Legion.

His current cultivation level is only at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul Realm.

If Gongsun Wangshu had joined the Taichu Dynasty before its advancement and received the blessing of heaven and earth, he would at least be at the Nascent Soul Realm now, and might even have reached the Cave Heaven Realm level.

Even the Minister of War, Dongfang Ming, and the Imperial Guard General, Zhang Zhentian, have reached the ninth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, just one step away from stepping into the Divine Transformation Realm.

This is the benefit of receiving the blessings bestowed by Heaven and Earth when the Primordial Dynasty ascended.

"..."

The expressions of Taiyuan Daoist and the others changed drastically. They never expected that the Taichu Dynasty knew everything about their trip to Yanjing City, where they intended to storm the palace.

And they were waiting for them right here in the palace!

Although they had a large number of Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, beads of cold sweat began to appear on the foreheads of Taiyuan Daoist, Vajra Venerable, and Nie Zhanlong.

They sensed six experts at the Cave Heaven Realm level alone.

They are Yan Changqing, Mu Yunfei, Tie Ao, Hu Qizheng, Gu Qingshan, and Huangfu Yunhai.

The key point is that the aura emanating from these six people is extremely powerful.

In particular, Yan Changqing, Mu Yunfei, Gu Qingshan, and Huangfu Yunhai posed a great threat to them.

As for Emperor Li Jing of the Taichu Dynasty, there's even less to say. In their eyes, Li Jing seemed to be just an ordinary person, and the more they thought of him, the more unfathomable he seemed.

If they had known that the Taichu Dynasty had become so terrifying so soon after its founding, they would not have dared to come to the capital city of Yan to kill Li Jing, even if they had ten times the courage. Is this really killing Li Jing?

Did they come here to die on their own initiative?

Nie Zhanlong was filled with hatred for Taiyuan Daoist and Vajra Venerable. It was all because of these two guys that he got involved.

There is clearly no hatred between their Fenglei Pavilion and the Taichu Dynasty!

Why did he get involved in this mess?!

Seeing the expressions of Taiyuan Daoist and the other two, the Nascent Soul Realm elders of the three holy lands understood, and each of them felt uneasy and fearful.

Outside the palace.

Two figures appeared on the rooftop.

The two figures were none other than the tall and upright woodcutter, Bei Gong Wudi, dressed in coarse cloth.

Dressed in a white Taoist robe, Lü Chunyang was handsome and elegant.

Bei Gong Wudi clenched his fists, and with a flick of his body, he tried to take off and head towards the palace of the Tai Chu Dynasty.

An arm was placed on Beigong Wudi's shoulder.

Bei Gong Wudi looked at Lü Chunyang with a puzzled expression.

"Woodcutter, what's your hurry?"

"Do you think the Primordial Dynasty, as a dynasty of destiny, could be simple?"

"Three people at the Cave Heaven Realm are no match for His Majesty."

Lu Chunyang shook his head and said to Beigong Wudi.

Now that he had come all the way to Yanjing City and decided to join the Taichu Dynasty, Lü Chunyang considered himself a member of the Taichu Dynasty.

"Young Taoist priest, are you sure?"

Bei Gong Wudi frowned and said, "If we don't go to help, will His Majesty really be in danger?"

When have I ever lied to you?

Lu Chunyang rolled his eyes and said, "The imperial palace, or rather, the entire city of Yanjing, is actually a giant array."

An extremely terrifying formation!

The imperial palace is at the very center of this formation.

A formation within a formation!

"Don't even mention the Cave Heaven Realm; I suspect he's even entered the Dharma Aspect Realm. If His Majesty wants him dead, he won't survive!"

"That's amazing?"

Bei Gong Wudi looked at Lü Chunyang in astonishment and said.

He thought to himself, "Haven't you lied to me enough already?"

"Yes, that's very impressive."

"Not only that, this formation is also connected to the national fortune of the Primordial Dynasty. The stronger the national fortune of the Primordial Dynasty, the stronger the power of this formation will be."

"To put it simply, this is a formation, and it's a formation that can grow!"

"Wow, impressive! The Primordial Dynasty has some extraordinary people!"

Lü Chunyang clicked his tongue in amazement.

Upon hearing Lü Chunyang's words, Beigong Wudi loosened his clenched fists. He knew that Lü Chunyang was different from Beigong Wudi, who had only cultivated martial arts and read some military books.

Lü Chunyang also received the Taoist priest's skills in observing qi and inheriting his array formation techniques.

If he says that, then it must be true.

These people who go in will never come out!

Both of them looked towards the palace, hoping to see something.

"Since you're already here, aren't you going to say anything?"

"Shouldn't you be shouting for the execution of Li Jing and the destruction of the Taichu Dynasty?"

Li Jing looked at the three people, including Taiyuan Daoist, with a disappointed expression.

"..."

The three Taoist priests, including Taiyuan, looked at Li Jing with embarrassed expressions.

Taiyuan Daoist had long cursed Taiyi Daoist, the sect leader of Taiyi Daoist Sect, and his ancestors for eighteen generations. He would not ask Li Jing to come out of seclusion without thoroughly investigating the strength of Li Jing and even the entire Taichu Dynasty.

Is this an invitation for him to come out and kill Li Jing, and steal the secrets of heaven?

This is clearly an attempt to send him on his way!

"If you won't speak, then I'll say something."

Li Jing sighed and looked at the three Taiyuan Daoists, saying, "All of you, make your move. If only nine people remain, the rest can live."

If you don't make a move, you'll all die together!

You may choose: either I will execute you all, or you may take matters into your own hands and nine of you may survive.

By the way, Master Taiyuan and Venerable Vajra, they must both die!

So you can team up and kill them both first!
