"How is this possible! How is this possible!"
While Wu Feng, the Domain King of the Divine Realm, spoke with some disbelief in his first sentence, his second sentence revealed a hint of dejection.
He collapsed to the ground, his eyes lifeless. "How could this be..."
Countless eyes fell on Jing Mu. At this moment, Jing Mu had no choice but to step forward. He couldn't care less about comforting Wu Feng and went straight to his subordinates, asking, "How many troops are left in the allied forces? Who is leading them?"
He asked the two most crucial questions at that moment.
The servant pondered for a moment and said, "There are still 780,000 left, and the general is Zhou Tiannai."
Zhou Tian is a genuine Spirit Emperor, and in addition to the three Spirit Emperors transferred from other top-tier forces, there are currently four Spirit Emperors stationed in the allied forces alone.
There are more than a dozen quasi-emperors, which is even greater than the number of dragons at their peak.
“Alright, send a message immediately. I will immediately dispatch a million troops, five Spirit Emperors, and twenty Quasi-Emperors to go ahead and tell Zhou Tiannai that the extraterrestrial demons are not allowed to set foot in the territory of the Eastern Divine Continent.”
After Jing Mu gave his instructions, the servant quickly took his leave.
He picked up a brush, dipped it in ink, and wrote a document. After it dried, he handed it to the King of the Great Qin Domain, saying, "It's best to leave this matter to you."
"Take this order and immediately head to the Desolate Heaven Domain and the Eastern Divine Continent. Tell them that even if they die, they must produce this many more people."
Upon receiving the transfer order, which felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, Qin Yan took a deep breath, feeling immense pressure. However, his dark eyes still shone with a determined light as he said, "Rest assured, Pavilion Master, I will definitely complete the mission perfectly."
After saying that, he strode away with a thunderous gait.
At this moment, the dejected Divine Domain King Wu Feng also reacted, hurriedly stood up, took a few steps to stand in front of Jing Mu, stared at the latter with his eyes fixed on him, and gritted his teeth and said, "Sect Master... I will kill them!"
His eyes were bloodshot, radiating a sharp, murderous aura.
Seeing this, Jing Mu was also heartbroken and immediately comforted him, "Alright, alright, don't worry, we will take back the Divine Realm sooner or later. If that extraterrestrial demon really thinks that my Great Thousand Pavilion is easy to bully, then he has only kicked a hornet's nest."
This was clearly just empty talk, a mere pie in the sky, but Wu Feng firmly believed it, like a drowning person grabbing onto a piece of duckweed, knowing it was just duckweed but still holding onto a sliver of hope.
At this moment, Tian Yu gradually realized what was going on.
He knew why Jing Mu had sent Qin Yan. Firstly, the status of the Great Qin Domain was undeniable, and after its fall, all the powerful figures of the Great Qin Domain had dispersed, giving it a strong appeal. Secondly, Qin Yan's hidden identity with the Dragon Clan remained.
Secondly, given the current situation, only these few individuals can stand firm. The first one selected was the very excited Wu Feng. The reason he wasn't to go in person was to avoid accusations that he was abusing his power for personal gain.
"Master, what should I do now?"
Without realizing it, everyone had already come to regard Jing Mu as their pillar of support.
Jing Mu took a deep breath, his eyes glazed over, and said, "Guard him. Even if it means death, give me a year to live. This is the last hope of my Great Thousand World."
...
at this time
The outermost layer of the Eastern Divine Continent is the legendary Heavenly Mystery City. The city lord, the Heavenly Mystery Elder, is one of the elders of the Eastern Divine Continent, and his cultivation level is around that of a Spirit Emperor.
When the world is at peace, it exists as a force to resist the divine realm, and is considered an important figure, much like a regional governor.
Because of its proximity to the Divine Realm, the Eastern Divine Continent has placed a significant portion of its resources in Tianji City.
After all, a contingency plan had been prepared in case the Divine Realm launched a surprise attack on the Eastern Divine Continent without warning, and the Heavenly Mystery Elder was unable to contact the Eastern Divine Continent at that time.
The process was already memorized, which is why the hundreds of thousands of defeated troops were able to immediately stop their decline in Tianji City and successfully keep the enemy out of the Eastern Divine Continent.
On the city wall, Zhou Tiannai, covered in blood, stood suspended in mid-air, his fierce eyes revealing a hint of pain, his face contorted with bloodstains.
"General, please rest. I am here, so you can rest assured."
Beside him stood the white-haired old man, the master of this Heavenly Mystery City, the Heavenly Mystery Elder.
Zhou Tian sighed deeply and said sadly, "I am sorry to the Pavilion Master and to the hundreds of thousands of warriors for making this battle such a mess. If it weren't for your skillful command, we might have really perished here."
Upon hearing this, the Old Man of Heavenly Secrets gently shook his head and slowly stood by the city wall.
Beneath it, one could vaguely see the densely packed demons. Fortunately, as a buffer zone, there used to be a mountain range in front of Tianji City, but for the sake of war preparedness and security, it was forcibly leveled, and now it is an endless plain.
While this lacks strategic depth, it boasts a broad vision and, relying on its unique advantages, truly possesses the strength to hold off ten thousand enemies.
"For the past few years, I've been constantly on edge, thinking that something big is going to happen, so I've been reinforcing the city's defenses. I never expected that it would come in handy today," he said with a wry smile.
"Tomorrow is probably going to be tough," Zhou Tian said with obvious worry.
"Don't worry, the messenger has already gone out, and we'll have a reply in three days at most," said the old man of heavenly secrets.
For a moment, the group looked at each other in silence.
At this point, saying anything is pointless.
A hundred miles away from Tianji City lies a military camp stretching to the horizon, and inside the central command tent, Tianlu is making final preparations for the all-out offensive.
"Alright, if there are no objections, let's proceed accordingly."
After Tianlu finished speaking, everyone withdrew, and at that moment, a person slowly emerged from the darkness.
"You've arrived."
Upon seeing that person, Tianlu was not surprised.
This man was none other than the great wizard who should have been in prison. At this moment, the great wizard looked exhausted. It seemed that the past few months of imprisonment had made him much thinner, to the point that he looked rather gaunt.
He nodded and said, "So, what have you thought about the conditions I mentioned?"
Tian Lu stood up, brought a cup of tea to his side, and said slowly, "No need to consider it, I won't do it. Now that the Ancestor has awakened, our current offensive relies entirely on him. As for Feng Qizi, who is from the Ancestor's lineage, do you think you have a chance to bring him down?"
"Whether we have a chance to try or not, we'll only know." The high wizard gave a cold laugh.
"Why should I help you?" Tianlu retorted. "Now I am considered to be at the pinnacle of power. Apart from the clan leader, I am the highest-ranking official. Why should I take the risk to help you?"
