You get Lu Bu as your starting character.

"No?"

The Holy King of the Demon Court scanned the surrounding void, his brows furrowing slightly.

"How could there not be!"

He had thoroughly searched the surrounding area but found nothing unusual or any hidden presence.

Could it be that the Great Zhou Dynasty really only sent these people, and no one else?
The Holy King of the Demon Court was somewhat skeptical and scanned the surrounding void again, wanting to confirm.

"Uh!"

This time, the Holy King of the Demon Court finally sensed something unusual and discovered something.

He stared intently at a void deep within the Two Realms Pass and said, "Now that you've arrived, why hide? Show yourself."

The resounding shouts, carrying boundless momentum, surged towards that void.

However, this boundless momentum, which was enough to crush any mountain and river, disappeared without a trace after surging into that void, as if it had sunk into a quagmire.

"You tiger do have some strength, managing to detect my presence."

The words fell.

A heroic and imposing figure emerged from that void.

This figure was none other than Li Cunxiao, the one Zhou Chen had sent to deal with the two holy kings of the Demon Clan and the Demon Court.

Li Cunxiao walked over step by step, without a trace of imposing presence.

Even so, with each step he took, the surrounding void emitted a series of cracking sounds.

The Holy King of the Demon Court looked solemn as he watched Li Cunxiao emerge.

He felt an inexplicable pressure, even a sense of threat, from Li Cunxiao.

Although Li Cunxiao didn't exude any imposing aura, he was certain that his opponent was a Saint King, and possibly even stronger than him.

boom! ! !
On the other side, the Demon King sent Ma Chao flying with a palm strike, then flashed to the side of the Demon Court King, where they both looked at Li Cunxiao with solemn expressions.

As for Ma Chao, the Holy King of the Demon Clan didn't take him seriously at all.

Even if Ma Chao is strong, he is only a Great Sage and not qualified to be compared with a Saint King.

After regaining his footing, Ma Chao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stared intently at the Demon King, and did not charge forward again.

Although Ma Chao was somewhat unwilling, he had to admit that he was no match for this Demon King, and even if he attacked again, the result would be the same.

Perhaps, they will lose even faster than they are now.

……

"really."

"There really are Saint King-level powerhouses in the Great Zhou Dynasty."

In the distant depths of the void, two women in palace attire stood invisible.

Upon seeing Li Cunxiao appear, one of the older, middle-aged women murmured something.

Upon hearing this, another woman in palace attire asked in surprise, "Master, is this person the Holy King?"

The middle-aged woman nodded; "Yes, and their strength is not weak either."

After saying that, a look of solemnity appeared on the middle-aged woman's face, and she felt somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, they did not act rashly against the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty; otherwise, the consequences would have been unpredictable.

The two women in palace attire were none other than Long Qianqian, the ninth princess of the Azure Dragon Dynasty, and her master, who had previously descended upon Chang'an of the Great Zhou Dynasty and confronted Zhou Chen.

Upon hearing the middle-aged woman's words, Long Qianqian's face turned extremely ugly.

This Great Zhou actually has a Saint King-level expert.

Moreover, judging from the master's tone and expression, this Great Zhou Holy King is extremely powerful.

How is she supposed to get revenge now?

Even if she is the Holy Maiden of the Holy Land and has a very high status and voice in Ziwei Mountain, the Holy Land would not help her deal with a force like the Great Zhou, which has a Saint King, just because she is a Holy Maiden.

After all, she wasn't the only holy maiden in the Holy Land.

Without the help of the Holy Land, it would be impossible for her to avenge the Azure Dragon Dynasty and her father, or to deal with the Great Zhou Dynasty on her own.

Currently, her strength has only recently broken through to the Saint level. If she wants to take revenge, she will at least need to break through to the Saint King level.

But how difficult it is to break through to the Saint King level and achieve the supreme status of Saint King.

She has good talent, but she is not entirely confident that she will be able to break through to the Saint King level and achieve the supreme status of Saint King.

Moreover, does the Great Zhou Dynasty only have one Holy King?

Seemingly sensing Long Qianqian's emotional fluctuations, the middle-aged woman withdrew her gaze and looked at Long Qianqian, saying, "Qianqian, we have already learned about the situation of the Great Zhou. Although it is just a dynasty, its strength can only be described as unfathomable."

"If you want revenge, you need to plan carefully; there's no need to rush."

"Once your strength breaks through to the Saint King level, or even the peak of the Saint King level, wouldn't taking revenge be a piece of cake!"

"Don't let these things affect your state of mind, otherwise it will be detrimental to your future spiritual practice."

Hearing the middle-aged woman's words, Long Qianqian took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and nodded; "Disciple understands."

"You just understand."

The middle-aged beauty said no more and turned her gaze toward the battlefield of the Two Realms Pass.

……

Li Cunxiao walked over, glanced at Ma Chao's pale face, and wasn't too surprised.

He knew that Ma Chao could not possibly be a match for the Demon King.

Ma Chao's combat strength is not weak, but the gap between the Great Sage and the Holy King is not so easy to bridge.

If it were an ordinary Saint King, Ma Chao might have been able to put up a fight.

Unfortunately, this demon king was no ordinary saint king.

Li Cunxiao looked at the two Holy Kings of the Demon Clan and the Demon Court, sized them up, and said, "A little tiger and a demon dare to run wild in my Great Zhou. You really don't know what 'death' means."

"Tell me, how do you want to die?"

His calm tone was domineering yet filled with murderous intent.

Despite possessing no imposing aura whatsoever, Li Cunxiao caused the two Holy Kings of the Demon Clan and the Demon Court to display extremely solemn expressions.

"Hmph, arrogant."

Without uttering any further words, the two Holy Kings of the Demon Clan and the Demon Court snorted coldly and simultaneously soared into the sky, charging towards Li Cunxiao.

Both of them sensed a strong sense of danger emanating from Li Cunxiao, an intuition they rarely had.

Especially for people at their level, there are very few things that can make them feel this sense of danger.

But at this moment, they clearly felt it.

Therefore, without saying a word, the Holy King of the Demon Clan and the Holy King of the Demon Court seized the initiative and made the first move.

At the same time, Li Cunxiao's figure disappeared from the spot, heading towards the two Holy Kings of the Demon Clan and the Demon Court.

The three figures collided instantly and plunged into the void.

Rumble!
The violent collision stirred up gusts of wind.

Intense fluctuations spread outwards, tearing apart layers of space.

The entire void seemed to have fallen into an apocalypse, with the sky collapsing, the earth splitting, and the sun and moon losing their light.

Upon seeing this, Ma Chao's expression changed, and he shouted, "Retreat!"

He retreated rapidly backward.

Taishi Ci and Pei Yuanqing also realized what was happening and followed Ma Chao as they retreated from the sky.

Once they regained their footing and looked up, they discovered that the spot where they had just stood had been swept up in the storm, and the area within a hundred miles had been torn apart into fragments. A look of horror flashed across Ma Chao's face.

Is this the great battle between holy kings?
It's absolutely terrifying.

If he had hesitated even for a moment, he would have been dragged into it.

At that time, even if he were the Great Sage, he would probably suffer a severe injury.

"It seems that the Demon King did not use his full strength when he fought him just now."

Gazing at the storm in the void and feeling its fluctuations, Ma Chao thought to himself.

The fluctuations from this great battle were more than ten times more terrifying than those from his recent fight with the Demon King.

Pei Yuanqing and Taishi Ci, standing nearby, also looked shaken.

They considered themselves to be quite strong, but after witnessing such a battle between holy kings, they realized the gap between them.

Not to mention fighting the Holy King, even the storm fluctuations of a Holy King's battle are beyond their ability to withstand.

boom!
Another deafening roar echoed, and the entire void was shattered beyond recognition.

Ma Chao could no longer clearly see the battle in the void; he could only see three shadows colliding continuously at such a speed that even his great sage eyesight could only catch a faint afterimage.

After an unknown amount of time, the booming sounds of the battle in the void disappeared.

The terrifying storm stopped spreading and gradually dispersed in all directions.

Ma Chao stared into the void, his eyes fixed straight ahead without blinking.

He knew that the war was over, which meant the outcome was clear.

Victory or defeat hinges on this moment.

After the storm completely subsided, the two Holy Kings of the Demon Clan and the Demon Court stood there, their faces pale, blood constantly flowing from the corners of their mouths, and their bodies covered in bloodstains. In contrast, Li Cunxiao's face was only slightly paler than before.

Obviously.

The result is self-evident.

Even the combined might of the two Holy Kings of the Demon Clan and the Demon Court was no match for Li Cunxiao.

"You can be proud to die by my hand."

"I am going to die."

Li Cunxiao looked at the two Holy Kings of the Demon Clan and the Demon Court, and without any further hesitation, he formed a palm, spread his five fingers, and struck the two with the overwhelming force of Mount Tai.

"Seven Demon Kings, this person is too strong. The two of us are no match for him. Let's use our trump cards!"

"Otherwise, we'll both be dead here today."

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, the Holy King of the Demon Court addressed the Holy King of the Demon Clan.

Upon hearing this, the Holy King of the Demon Clan gritted his teeth, took out a jade tablet, and crushed it.

boom!
The moment the jade tablet shattered, a terrifying aura descended, enveloping the entire void.

A phantom figure appeared in everyone's sight.

When Li Cunxiao saw the illusory figure that appeared, his pupils shrank involuntarily.

A demigod?

Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from the illusory figure, Li Cunxiao's expression turned solemn.

As for the palm strike he had just delivered, it vanished into nothingness the instant the illusory figure appeared.

"This is…"

Under the influence of this terrifying aura, Ma Chao and his men below almost knelt down.

Seeing the illusory figure appear in the void, Ma Chao and the others were extremely horrified.

A demigod?

This demon king actually summoned a demigod?
Although it was only a projection of a half-emperor, its terrifying aura was enough to make people tremble.

Ma Chao and the others stared into the void, somewhat worried about whether Li Cunxiao could withstand the projection of this half-emperor.

……

A demigod?

In the distant depths of the void, the middle-aged beauty's expression also suddenly changed.

She hadn't expected that the Holy King of the Demon Clan would have such a trump card.

The projection of a demigod.

Even if it's just a projection, it's not something the Holy King can withstand.

"Walk."

Without any hesitation, the middle-aged beauty grabbed Long Qianqian beside her, tore through the void, and disappeared from the spot.

Originally, if it weren't for the appearance of this demigod projection, they could have remained hidden here and observed the outcome.

However, the appearance of the demigod's projection made it impossible for them to completely conceal their auras anymore; if they stayed any longer, they would likely face serious trouble.

Therefore, without any hesitation, the middle-aged beauty grabbed Long Qianqian and decided it was best to leave first.

……

"Peak Saint King?"

"I never expected that there would be someone like you in this Eastern Region. You're probably only one step away from becoming a half-emperor!"

"It's just a bit of a pity..."

The illusory figure glanced at Li Cunxiao and gently pointed a finger.

Upon seeing this, Li Cunxiao felt every hair on his body stand on end.

This seemingly ordinary gesture sent a chill down Li Cunxiao's spine.
Most importantly, Li Cunxiao discovered that although this finger was clearly far away from him, he felt it was right in front of him. And the key point was that under the influence of this finger, he was unable to move an inch.

Left with no other choice, Li Cunxiao could only activate his Thirteen Bodyguards Horizontal Training and throw a punch to meet the attack.

"boom……"

After a deafening roar, Li Cunxiao was sent flying backward.

This scene, witnessed by Ma Chao and his men below, left them all horrified.

Is the power of a half-emperor enough to send a Saint King flying with a single finger?
Even the Demon King and the Demon Court King standing nearby couldn't hide their shock.

They had experienced the power of the Great Zhou's Holy King firsthand; even when the two of them joined forces, they couldn't hold out against him for long.

But even with such strength, they were sent flying by a single finger from a half-emperor, something they hadn't anticipated.

Is the gap between a Holy King and a Half-Emperor really that big?

"Cough, cough, cough!"

After Li Cunxiao regained his footing, he coughed lightly, a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. His armor was also torn to pieces, and he looked rather disheveled.

Obviously.

This finger strike from the half-emperor did him a bad feeling.

"You old codger, if it were your true form coming, I would be somewhat wary of you."

"However, you are just a projection now. How many times can you launch such an attack?"

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Li Cunxiao stared coldly at the illusory figure, his aura exploding forth.

A Yuwang Spear appeared in Li Cunxiao's hand, making his aura even more formidable.

Previously, Li Cunxiao's aura was contained within, but at this moment, the aura unique to the peak of the Saint King realm was completely revealed.

"Give me your life!" (End of Chapter)
