Chapter 106: Chapter 106 Underground Ancient City_1
Inside the vast mountains, there are numerous mines that have been dug out, with intense fluctuation of spiritual energy, where fragments of Mana Crystals are embedded in the walls of the tunnels.
At this very moment, a large crowd has gathered in a certain valley here.
Two hundred thousand warriors in black armor from God's Martial Army, led by two peeking gods, Lu Qianfu and Qing Yunzi, with killing intent all around, are standing by with their God Killer Crossbows in hand, pointing at the large number of strongmen outside the valley.
These are the powerful ones from Wan Xuang Sect and Cangnan Sect!
This time, the two sects are led by five peeking gods, and there are thousands in the Divine Realm, as well as a large number of souls in the Genesis stage.
But they looked intimidated facing the God's Martial Army, they dared not charge forward arbitrarily.
Because they had made a charge earlier, and as a result, the God's Martial Army shot out God Killer Arrows together, and in an instant, hundreds of people were shot into hedgehogs, and even those in the Divine Realm couldn't resist.
Even though they had far more top powerful ones than God's Martial Army.
But they're not fools, they naturally saw how elite these two hundred thousand soldiers were. Once they started fighting, they wouldn't' run away, so they confronted each other and waited for further commands from their sect and for more powerful ones to support them.
"Great Wu Dynasty, we don't want to fight with you, but this year's Mana Crystals offering must be handed over!"
The long standoff was also making the strongmen from the two sects feel impatient.
An old man walked in front, who was from Cangnan Sect, achieved the threefold peeking god strength, and released a pressure that covered the sky and the earth as he spoke coldly.
"The Mana Crystal Mines belong to our Great Wu Dynasty, it has nothing to do with you. And your agreement with the Great Zhenzhou was signed with the previous dynasty. I advise you to leave early, otherwise, war is unavoidable!"
Facing the threefold peeking god, Lu Qianfu stood tall and confident, showing no fear.
"Hmph! Why are you wasting your breath with them? If they don't suffer, they won't know our power. This Great Wu has just been promoted to a two-star dynasty, and it grows more arrogant with less consideration for others—has it become invincible in its own eyes? Actually, this power, in this suspended domain, isn't anything special."
A peeking god of Wan Xuang Sect said with disdain.
"You're right, we can't waste time with them here. This time, our two sects are working together, let's send a battle request to the sect, we will surround this army and I don't believe Great Wu won't surrender."
A strongman from Cangnan Sect, also a two-star sect, couldn't bear the arrogance of Great Wu.
Boom! Immediately tens of thousands of troops from the two big sects tightly surrounded the God's Martial Army!
The five peeking gods' mana surged at the same time, despite the powerful crossbows in their hands, once they broke in, they would inflict heavy losses on the enemy with the power of peeking gods.
"God's Martial Warriors, get ready!"
Both sides were on the edge, ready to fight at any moment.
But at this moment, a few strong auras came from the distant sky.
"Our Sect Master from Cangnan Sect is here!"
A strongman from Cangnan Sect instantly recognized the strongest man among them as the Sect Master of Cangnan Sect, and he laughed heartily.
"Not just him, our Sect Master from Wan Xuang Sect is also here!"
"The Sect Master is a peerless strongman in the ninth level of peeking god, I didn't expect even him to be mobilized. It seems he can't bear the rampant behavior of Great Wu lately, he wants to crush them himself and teach them a lesson."
Strongmen from both sects laughed.
"God's Martial Warriors, fight to death!" Lu Qianfu shouted coldly.
A few moments later, the sect masters from both sects arrived, they saw both sides were on the edge and their faces changed color.
"Greetings, Sect Master!" The strongmen from both sects said: "We have, according to the instructions of the sect, heavily surrounded the Great Wu Army, ready to crush them at any moment."
"Nonsense, who told you to do this!"
The Sect Master of Cangnan Sect, after seeing this, became extremely anxious and furious, he slapped his hand on the face of the strongman, slapping him out.
Now that the Sect Master himself has become a slave to someone else, these people wanted to destroy the personal army of the monarch of Great Wu, he felt like this group of people wanted to kill him.
Not only were the strongmen from the two sects stupefied, even Lu Qianfu was stunned and couldn't understand what was going on.
"The monarch is here!"
The ancient Imperial Chariot of War descended from the sky, and Chu Yuan was visiting the Great Zhenzhou mines, his imperial majesty became extremely potent at that moment.
"Why haven't you paid your respect to the Monarch!"
Zhao Kong scolded: "I haven't even told you that from now on, you all belong to Great Wu, there is no longer Wan Xuang sect, there is only Li Huo Legion Wan Xuang Army, do I need to make myself clearer!"
"Wan Xuang Army!"
People from Wan Xuang Sect were all shocked when they heard that.
But they knew from Zhao Kong's tone that it wasn't a lie, something unimaginable must have happened to their sect when they were gone.
"Pay respect to the Monarch!"
Strongmen from both Wan Xuang and Cangnan Sect looked at each other and said.
"Your Majesty, what happened?"
Lu Qianfu guessed, something must have happened again.
"Tell the warriors not to be nervous." Chu Yuan said: "Wan Xuang and Cangnan Sects have already returned to Great Wu, the imperial territory has increased by Wan Xuang and Cangnan states, they are organized as Li Huo Legion Wan Xuang Army, Ming Hou, you can recruit brave soldiers from the two states to supplement the God's Martial Army."
"Even two big two-star sects have surrendered to your Majesty!"
Though Lu Qianfu was shocked, he was even more excited: "I understand."
"Hmm? This is the largest mine in Zhenzhou state, over a hundred million Mana Crystals can be mined each year, ten billion in a hundred years."
Chu Yuan's gaze covered the entire mining area.
The Great Swallowing Technique started operating, the rich spiritual energy was sucked into his body like a rolling tide. At this moment, he must have swallowed dry tens of thousands of Mana Crystals' spiritual energy.
"So rich!" Chu Yuan's eyes brightened, "As per my estimate, even if mining continues for a hundred more years, it wouldn't dry up. Such a rich place is rare, even in the suspended domain!"
"If the Great Zhenzhou wasn't backed up by the Black Ming Dynasty, they couldn't have held it, and we would have taken it a long time ago."
Zhao Kong said honestly.
"Indeed, let me personally feel how big this mine really is!"
Chu Yuan operated the devouring power again.
This time he didn't just devour spiritual energy, but his divine sense was dispersed to various parts of the mine in the form of devouring. But as he was infiltrating, he realized the mine held another universe—what was presented to everyone was only a portion.
It was much bigger than what he saw with his own eyes.
"Hmm? There is a much bigger place below, it seems to have collapsed!"
Chu Yuan's divine sense fiercely drilled in.
As he devoured, the mountains lost their energy and turned into powder, a passage leading to the core of the Earth appeared along the mine, but all of a sudden, his divine sense rebounded and violently hit an extremely hard place.
With him as the center, Chu Yuan tore the mine with the grip of the War God.
Boom! A thick spiritual energy turned into a beam of light shooting to the sky, creating an extraordinary vision, appearing like a mirage.
Chu Yuan and Lu Qianfu along with others were standing in the sky, looking at this huge cavern—they could faintly see!
There was a huge underground world hidden here, isolated from the world by a formation, they could only vaguely see many ancient buildings—it seemed like an underground ancient city, but without any signs of life.
