After being baptized and trained by Xu Yang's rich vitality essence, a Yuandan crystal as big as half a palm was integrated together and condensed.

"Oh my god, it would probably take half a year to refine all the power in such a big Yuandan.

If it succeeds, even if it is the strength of the Golden Core Realm, it may be able to reach the realm comparable to the Martial God in ten thousand years because of this power. "

After all, Lan Ling'er is from the first sect in the empire and is well-informed.

With her keen eyesight, she quickly saw the true value of this Yuandan crystal.

There is no doubt that owning a crystal means being able to add a martial god-level strongman to the entire empire.

Unfortunately, no one in this team could devour it.

Because they have not yet reached the true peak of Mahayana, if they forcibly absorb such a large amount of Yuandan power, their bodies will be torn into pieces.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Yang presented the Yuandan crystal to the old emperor.

The old emperor was stunned at first.

Then he looked into Xu Yang's bright eyes with shock.

"What do you intend to do, sir?"

Xu Yang chuckled.

“Your Majesty, you are welcome. You can use this Yuandan crystal to cultivate a true confidant.

Now all the ruling classes within the empire are completely controlled by the fake emperor. Even if you return to the empire, it will be difficult to regain power in a short time.

The effect of this Yuandan crystal will also be reflected in the future.

There is no way for us to stay with you in the palace forever.

After sending you back to the palace to deal with the priest, we will rush to the battlefield on the border of the empire as soon as possible. After all, you will have to preside over the palace alone.

Whether you can turn the tide depends on your own ability. What's more important is that the broken soul of the Queen is still sealed in your body.

Perhaps this Yuandan crystal will be of great use to you in the future."

Xu Yang's gift this time was really too valuable. For an empire, a strong man at the level of a martial god was definitely worth as much as several city-states.

The old emperor really felt unworthy of it, but after thinking for a moment, he also felt that Xu Yang's advice made sense and he could indeed use this thing.

“I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I will always remember the contribution that Mr. Xu Yang has made to me and the entire empire.

Your Excellency, rest assured, as long as I can successfully regain power, you will be the only faith of the entire empire in the future."

The old emperor naturally knew that when one’s strength reached Xu Yang’s level, those material possessions had no meaning to him at all. Only by contributing the true power of faith could he bring certain help to Xu Yang’s future.

Therefore, this kind of feedback is the only valuable thing the old emperor can give to repay Xu Yang.

After solving the trouble on the plain battlefield, Xu Yang did not hesitate and immediately took a few people around him and rushed towards the imperial capital.

Xu Yang had a premonition that the priest would never give up and he would definitely make a big fuss about the imperial palace, the final battlefield.

After all, this is a disaster that cannot be avoided, and millions of people in the imperial capital are destined to be affected.

However, Xu Yang still did not expect that the priest was much more cruel and ruthless than he had imagined.

As soon as his phantom returned to his real body from the plain battlefield, the old guy began to arrange the next defense plan almost without stopping.

He just waved the scepter in his hand and a faint light flashed. Soon, ten believers of the god of war level wearing golden robes appeared in the palace.

"Meet the priest!"

The priest sitting on the emperor's throne sighed helplessly.

“The information you reported back earlier.

The strength of that guy named Xu Yang is indeed stronger than I imagined. More than half of the 500 soul puppets I dispatched were killed by that guy.

There are almost no weaknesses in the inheritance he practices.

And there are many hidden cards behind it.

I predict that this guy will become a big trouble for us to realize our plan.

We must try to hold him back as long as possible in this battlefield of the Imperial Palace. Once we let the tiger go back to the mountains, the consequences will be unimaginable."

After the priest said this, the ten golden-robed believers in front of him all looked solemn and stood there looking at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Your Excellency the Priest, if we want to fight that guy head-on, our strength alone is far from reaching that level.

I'm afraid only the High Priest can personally take action to fight back."

This time the priest did not belittle himself but smiled and shook his head.

To be honest, I had no confidence that I could stop that guy, because I was almost certain that in the fight that just ended on the plain battlefield, he was far from showing off his truly terrifying trump card.

The human wave tactic has no effect on that guy at all, so according to my plan, if I want to curb his rhythm, I must find the guy's weakness, and this weakness is not in himself.

"After hearing what the priest said, the golden-robed believers below seemed to sense the true intention of the priest.

"You mean...

Are you planning to make trouble within the Imperial City-State?"

The priest nodded with a smile.

“There is no other way. I summoned the ten of you here to gather your strength and build a power transmission formation for me in the shortest possible time, so that I can mobilize enough power to perform forbidden martial arts.

In this battle, the millions of people in the entire imperial capital will be our greatest combat resource. As long as we can fully utilize their value, we will definitely bring great trouble to that human boy.

The ten golden-robed believers clasped their fists and bowed to the priest on the throne.

"Sacrifice wisely, I will do it right away!"

…

The priest on the throne took a deep breath as he watched the golden-robed believers disappear.

He instinctively grasped the scepter in his hand and spoke slowly.

“No matter what, this battle must be won no matter how great the cost. As long as I can stop that guy from supporting the border battlefield, after completing this soul offering, my strength will reach the peak of a true martial god.

At that time, why would I need to be afraid of that human kid? "

…

During the same period, Xu Yang's team had arrived outside the main city gate of the imperial capital.

What Xu Yang didn't expect were Long Kun and the ancient snake.

They had unexpectedly left the city-state where they were originally located without knowing when, and arrived outside the imperial capital early, waiting for Xu Yang and others to join them.

"Hahaha, why are you so slow, boss?

This stinking snake and I have been waiting for you for two days."

Xu Yang and his companions also spoke to the two of them with surprise on their faces.

"Has the threat to your city-state been completely eliminated?"

Long Kun laughed and nodded.

“It’s strange to say that for some reason, there were originally dozens of ten thousand year old disciple-level warriors stationed in the city-state!

Suddenly, we were all transferred away by an order, and we took this opportunity to rush to the imperial capital and wait to meet you."
