Those thunder snakes as thick as a human arm continued to slither downward!
Emperor Jianyuan was still surrounded by many palace masters led by Xiaao Hongchen.
Their expressions were slightly hesitant, but they remained motionless.
The lightning in the sky was not aimed at Emperor Jianyuan and posed no threat to him.
Chu Ming had no reaction at all.
Her eyes were fixed on Emperor Jianyuan, completely still.
The blood-red gaze was extremely terrifying; it would make any slightly weak-hearted person feel their scalp tingle.
At this moment, six figures suddenly flashed among the Iron Armor Imperial Guards.
Their weapons varied, some holding swords and spears, some empty-handed, yet in an instant they suppressed and eliminated all the lightning coming at full speed.
’Picking Stars and Moon’ Zhou Zhi couldn’t help but furrow his brows.
His ethereal face turned slightly pale, heavy as iron, and his eyes were filled with disappointment, saying word by word: "Indeed, Corpse Army and Heavenly Gaze, good! Very good!"
Opposite, on the Dragon Chariot, Emperor Jianyuan was unusually angry.
What infuriated him was not the divine-like mighty thunder light earlier, but Zhou Zhi’s contemptuous, disgusted, and dismissive attitude.
This old bastard! How dare he?
In that instant, Emperor Jianyuan almost released the Heavenly Gaze to let its corpse poison spread, infecting everyone in the Star Constellation Immortal Sect, and all the soldiers of the Iron Banner Gang, transforming them into poison corpses.
He would then see what kind of expression that old thief would have?
However, Emperor Jianyuan still suppressed the hostility in his chest.
The corpse poison of the first Heavenly Gaze was uncontrollable, even the Heavenly Gaze itself could not control it. freewёbnoνel.com
Once this corpse poison spread, it would cause a large-scale corpse disaster in the North and South Great Rivers, leaving surrounding areas of several or even dozens of states ten rooms empty, reduced to barren land.
And these densely populated areas could provide him with a massive amount of Imperial Dragon Energy, as well as the money and taxes he urgently needed.
No sane person would do such a foolish thing, and Emperor Jianyuan certainly wouldn’t. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Especially today’s battle, Emperor Jianyuan was confident of victory.
His thoughts turned quickly, yet his face showed no different color.
He gently stroked the head of the Heavenly Gaze with his hand while speaking with a smile: "Sect Master Zhou has sharp eyes, this beast is indeed the Heavenly Gaze. However, Sect Master need not worry, this beast was refined by me using the flesh and blood of over a hundred high-grade Giant Spirits, without a drop of Human Clan blood.
I have already subdued this beast, handling it at will. In the past, the Gods forged the first Heavenly Gaze to counter the Northern Expedition Army of the Second Generation Saint Emperor. Yet, I have pondered carefully recently, this beast can indeed be used by the Human Clan.
This is merely a weapon, devoid of thoughts on good and evil, it depends solely on whose hand it is in. As for the Corpse Army, isn’t it commonplace? Why single out my family?
All sects and schools have people who can control corpses. Nearby is a Corpse Mountain Sect, which has repeatedly aided the Iron Banner Gang in battles in recent years. Chu Xisheng has a Heluo Fish Corpse, which has been lethal on water for many years. Fighting with controlled corpses, isn’t that better than letting my Human Clan soldiers fight the Giant Spirits?
Emperor Jianyuan paused in his speech here, then looked coldly and sharply at Zhou Zhi: "Today’s battle has nothing to do with your Star Constellation Immortal Sect, Sect Master Zhou should think thrice before acting, do not deceive yourself!
Before the Navy engages in battle, you can still turn around in time. Is Sect Master Zhou truly planning to plunge the Star Constellation Immortal Sect, with its eleven thousand years of inheritance, into irreversible doom?"
Boom!
Before Emperor Jianyuan’s voice fell, the entire world rumbled and exploded again.
Endless Star Power erupted from Zhou Zhi’s body, like a giant pillar reaching the sky, penetrating the entire heavens, blasting through the nine-layered clouds.
What followed was countless Star Sword Light, blasting down from the Zhou Tian Stars.
They contained various attributes of power, including Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Yin, Yang, Life, Death, and more!
They were as dense as raindrops, covering the area within five miles surrounding Emperor Jianyuan’s Dragon Chariot, endlessly streaming.
At the same time, ’thump thump thump’ sounds also emerged from the dense fog on the opposite side, instantly forming a barrage of arrows raining down, covering the sky, and shooting over the 1,350,000 Forbidden Army Soldiers of Emperor Jianyuan’s Central Army.
These arrows were all imbued with Star Power, not only had a range far exceeding the past but also doubled in power.
Within just ten breaths, sounds of ’clang clang clang’ echoed throughout the thirty-mile-long battle line, with the battlefield littered with deaths, accompanied by a shrill and tragic wailing echoing in all directions.
Even more terrifying, there were five successive waves of arrow rain in the sky.
The opposition had organized at least 200,000 elite shooters in the dense fog, completing six consecutive volleys within ten breaths.
And these one million arrows were poised to subsequently fall in the following few breaths.
National Master Yu Kunlun’s Dream Giant Umbrella could only hold for several breaths before being riddled with holes by the raindrop-like Star Sword Light.
Initially, only sporadic Star Swords fell, but then their numbers increased, becoming denser.
These Star Swords were no longer aimed at the Iron Armor Imperial Guards on the left but were blasting towards Emperor Jianyuan himself.
Emperor Jianyuan’s numerous Inner Palace and Police Pool of Blood masters had already prepared to act, to shield Emperor Jianyuan from the sky-covering Sword Qi.
However, Emperor Jianyuan raised his hand downward, signaling his subordinates to halt.
He smiled warmly, watching Chu Ming.
Chu Ming’s face still showed no expression, with her crimson eyes showing no slightest ripple.
