After an unknown amount of time, the aftershocks finally subsided, and the many seriously injured kings and nobles breathed a sigh of relief. They quickly looked down.
The underground city was almost completely razed to the ground. Except for a few special places like the Stone Statue Plaza, everything else was devastated.
Moreover, the ground of the underground city was torn apart with millions of spiderweb-like ravines, a shocking sight.
Fortunately, the Earth's core itself has not suffered too much damage, which means that apart from a possible major earthquake, the surface will not cause fundamental damage to the Earth.
As for the buildings in the underground city, their restoration will only take some time and is not a big deal.
Immediately, the kings and nobles discovered that each other's auras were extremely unstable, and they couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly.
Is this a clash between Martial Kings?
The aftershocks of the battlefield nearly destroyed them.
"Capture Marquis Liegu, Earl Baihua, and the others!"
Just then, Wu Wei suddenly shouted coldly.
The remaining kings and nobles suddenly awoke from their daze and instantly surrounded the few remaining kings and nobles of the Divine Emperor's Palace.
Marquis Liegu and others were also injured in the aftershocks, and Han Chi had already perished. At this moment, the outcome of Shen Qian's battle with Jiang Chengye was uncertain, making it the best opportunity to take them down in one fell swoop.
The faces of the Marquis of Fierce Bones and the others were ashen, and they did not put up any resistance. At this point, surrendering would still give them a sliver of hope. If they continued to resist, the intense killing intent in Wu Wei's eyes would not be faked.
After the Heavenly Swordsman used his sharp sword energy to imprison their souls, Wu Wei finally turned his gaze to the sky.
The kings and nobles all looked up, not because they didn't want to pay attention to the outcome of the battle, but because even now, the sky above was still a vast expanse of white.
It was as if even the dimensions there had been destroyed, and space no longer existed, leaving only the most primitive nothingness. Even after the aftershocks dissipated, they still couldn't sense anything.
The space may be automatically repaired, but no one knows how long it will take.
Suddenly, a figure was clearly reflected at the edge of the white mist.
Many princes and nobles became nervous.
If it's Shen Qian who comes out, that's fine, but if it's someone else, then...
Soon, a figure emerged from among them. When they saw the other person's appearance, all the kings and nobles breathed a sigh of relief, and some of them, such as Luo Shenbo, couldn't help but smile.
"Sink forward!"
At this moment, many kings and nobles couldn't help but whisper this name.
Since it was Shen Qian who emerged from the crowd, this undoubtedly means that in that earth-shattering collision between the two, the one who ultimately prevailed was... Shen Qian!
Even these seasoned kings and nobles, with their worldly experience, were somewhat moved at this moment.
What happened in the underground city today is undoubtedly the greatest crisis that humanity has faced in the last two hundred years.
First, Han Chi broke through to the Martial King level, and then Jiang Chengye, who had already betrayed the human race, invaded the Earth's core in the guise of a true Martial King.
With King Zhou Yi nowhere to be found, the human race was virtually unstoppable.
Perhaps Wu Wei has unleashed all his trump cards, and with the added power of the Nine Cauldrons, he won't be completely wiped out, but he will certainly pay a heavy price.
But now, it seems that the human race has quelled the turmoil with minimal losses.
Looking at the young man striding towards them, no one present would treat him as a junior anymore. In a sense, what Shen Qian did today was no less than what the Ninth Prince did back then.
Where is Jiang Chengye?
As Shen Qian approached, Wu Wei stepped forward and asked, while subtly sensing Shen Qian's state... Unfortunately, he could no longer see through Shen Qian and could not detect anything unusual.
"He's dead."
After a brief silence, he responded softly.
Upon hearing this, the many kings and nobles finally relaxed completely. This meant that the human race had truly lost a formidable enemy at the level of a Martial King, and Shen Qian seemed to be unharmed, which was something to be happy about.
"but……"
Just then, Shen Qian changed the subject again.
The princes and nobles looked over in confusion.
"The spatial passage constructed by the Witch Emperor using secret techniques is indestructible. It was temporarily blocked by the aftershocks of our battle, but it won't be long before it reopens."
Chen Qian said in a deep voice, "Next, there will likely be a continuous influx of powerful members of the Witch Clan, including... even the Witch Emperor himself!"
The atmosphere froze, and the expressions of all the kings and nobles turned solemn.
Although the Wu tribe has been dormant for millions of years, the foundation of this ancient first tribe should not be underestimated. Those who are familiar with ancient history know that at its peak, any branch of the Wu tribe could easily crush the human race.
And the most crucial point...
“The Witch Clan is different from our human race. Their path to becoming a Martial King may not be blocked. The resurrection of the Witch Emperor is equivalent to combining all the power of the Witch Clan together. No one can say for sure whether the Witch Clan has a second Martial King.”
Wu Wei slowly said, "When I went out to sea to test the waters last time, I had a brief exchange with the Great Elder of the Ganwu Clan. His strength is probably even greater than mine, but he was holding back, and I couldn't tell what was really going on."
The expressions of many princes and nobles changed.
Although Wu Wei spoke rather conservatively, they could all understand the underlying meaning in his words.
After Jiang Chengye completely sided with the Wu Clan, he broke through to the Martial King realm in a short period of time. No one can say for sure whether there are other Martial Kings in the Wu Clan.
At least as far as we know, the Great Elder of the Wu Clan is very likely a Martial King, after all, Wu Wei is already at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and the fact that he can suppress him speaks volumes.
